Chapter 207: Chapter 207 She Can’t Be That Awesome!

Chapter 207 -207 She Can’t Be That Awesome!

A wave of unknown fear overflowed from the bottom of her heart, leaving Meng Li startled.

Looking at Ye Chuyi’s beautifully ethereal face that held no trace of aggression, she realized she could no longer see through her!

She sat there looking unconcerned, her eyes filled with icy coldness, like a gorgeous demoness capable of claiming lives at any moment or a devil who could tear apart anyone’s soul without breaking a sweat.

How ridiculous!

She had actually thought she could manipulate a devil, actually thought she could deceive a devil out of half a million!

Excessive fear made her voice dry and unpleasant, “Chuyi, about the past, it wasn’t that I meant to target you, it’s just that Wen Nianyou…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Ye Chuyi stood up, and Meng Li shrank back in fear.

Ye Chuyi walked to her side and patted her shoulder, saying in a detached tone, “About the past, I had almost forgotten, but you kindly reminded me again. So, I’ve prepared a surprise for you. Yesterday was just the beginning. Are you satisfied?”

Meng Li’s face turned pale, and she was at a loss for words.

It was her!

It really was her!

Why?

How did she do it?!

She had called her on a whim, asked her to go to the coffee shop on a whim. How could Ye Chuyi seem to foresee it all?

The sudden sale of the landlord’s house, her being evicted, could that also be related to her?!

No no no, impossible! Ye Chuyi is human, not a god, she couldn’t possibly be that powerful! She mustn’t scare herself like this!

Regarding changing her university application, Ye Chuyi had no proof!

Meng Li desperately comforted herself, but her hands still trembled violently, especially the shoulder Ye Chuyi had touched was shaking uncontrollably, as if her hand was some sort of torture device, causing immense pain with a single pat.

Seeing Meng Li shaking like a sieve, Ye Chuyi smiled with satisfaction and then left the police office.

She stood at the door, waiting for her next target.

She didn’t have to wait long. Soon, a person in a wheelchair appeared.

Ye Chuyi stepped forward, her voice filled with surprised recognition, “You are… Aunt Meng?”

The woman in the wheelchair jerked her head up, asking warily, “You know me? Who are you?”

Ye Chuyi responded politely, “Aunt Meng, it really is you! I’m Chuyi, the one who always used to hang out with Meng Li. We were mostly in the same class from junior high through high school!”

Meng Chang looked at her in surprise, then after a while, she frowned and called out her full name, “Lin Chuyi? So it’s you. You’ve grown up to look different from when you were little. You had plastic surgery, didn’t you? Made yourself look like a fox spirit, ugly as hell.”

Ye Chuyi had experienced her sharp and malicious words since she was a child, and now, hearing them again, she simply smiled faintly, “Aunt Meng is joking. My family is so poor we can barely make ends meet; you know that. How could I afford plastic surgery?”

“It’s Meng Li who’s said to have made a lot of money, now adorning herself with name brands and living in an upscale neighborhood, living a life just like those wealthy ladies like Wen Nianyou.”

Meng Chang snorted coldly, “Sounds like you’re pretty jealous of her. You must be having a hard time, aren’t you?”

“You’re mistaken, Aunt Meng. I don’t envy Meng Li. It’s you I envy!”

“Envy me? Why?”

“I envy you for having such a good daughter like Meng Li to take care of you. I heard you fell ill, and Meng Li was by your side day and night, not stopping for a moment. I heard she found you the best hospital and hired the top doctors to treat you, spending a lot of money just to save your life.”

Ye Chuyi remarked sentimentally, “Now everyone knows you’ve raised a good daughter. When you used to beat her daily, and yet now she doesn’t resent you at all. She’s determined to help you live longer. Everyone praises Meng Li for being a dutiful daughter and says you’re very fortunate!”

“She’s no dutiful daughter at all!”

Meng Chang could hardly contain her rage, her face contorted with fury as she glared with a pair of terrifying eyes, “She tortures me every day! She’s the one who broke my legs. And she still has the audacity to claim she’s filial to me outside?”

“How could that be! Meng Li isn’t that type of person, she’s so filial to you. That’s universally acknowledged. It’s not good for you to slander your own daughter like this, is it?”
