The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot-Chapter 195 - : Humiliation

Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Humiliation

Half an hour later, Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen were sitting in a private room of a hotel.

Apart from them, there was an exceedingly superfluous Zhao Xuanglang.

Originally, Zhong Nianyao didn’t plan to let Zhao Xuanglang come with them, but since Zhao Xuanglang had been shamelessly insisting on following. In the end, Lu Yichen agreed, and she didn’t oppose it.

Zhong Nianyao thought that when Lu Yichen said he had booked the room next to the one booked by Eldest Mrs. Lu, he had a way to eavesdrop. She didn’t expect that after entering the room, she would realize her own narrow-mindedness.

Inside the private room, there was a large TV turned on, broadcasting everything that was happening in the room next door.

“What exactly is your relationship with this hotel?” Zhong Nianyao couldn’t help but look towards Lu Yichen, with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, teasingly said, “You even managed to install surveillance in someone else’s private room. Aren’t you afraid that Eldest Mrs. Lu will find out and cause trouble for you?”

“She won’t know.” Lu Yichen responded in a very calm tone, then smiled, continuing, “What do you think? Aren’t you satisfied with this arrangement? If you don’t want to watch it, I can have someone disconnect the surveillance right now.”

“No need,” Zhong Nianyao quickly said, “Since it’s already been installed, let’s watch it! After all, this is why we came here today, isn’t it?”

Watching Zhong Nianyao’s insincere manner, Lu Yichen couldn’t help but laugh.

Zhao Xuanglang also didn’t know why he had followed them, but now, sitting here, he always felt like he was very redundant. Moreover, without having started eating yet, he already felt somewhat full.

In the other private room—

The room was very large and luxurious, but within this vast space, there were only Madam Lu, Shi Shi, and Zhong Mengxuan, neither of whom spoke. This also gave the entire room an odd atmosphere.

At this moment, Zhong Mengxuan was on pins and needles; although thanks to a previous reminder from Nianyao, she was somewhat prepared. But now, facing the situation head-on, she still couldn’t maintain her composure.

She kept telling herself that the person before her was Lu Chenran’s mother, and the child in her belly was the other’s grandchild, so the other side wouldn’t harm her. However, this self-hypnosis seemed utterly useless.

Actually, ever since entering this room, Madam Lu hadn’t said a single harsh word to her. Aside from a simple instruction to sit down, she hadn’t said anything else.

But it was precisely this neglect that caused the panic at the bottom of her heart to spread incessantly.

Finally, Zhong Mengxuan couldn’t bear it any longer and took the initiative to speak, “Auntie, I—”

She had barely started speaking when Madam Lu, Shi Shi, directly interrupted her, “Don’t call me auntie. We are not so familiar with each other. You should call me Madam Lu!”

That one sentence turned Zhong Mengxuan’s face deathly pale, her bellyful of words now completely stuck in her throat.

Shi Shi took a sip from her teacup, gracefully set it down, and was then willing to look up at Zhong Mengxuan, “Let’s not beat around the bush and get to the point! Since you already know who I am, you should be quite clear about why I called you out today!”

“Auntie, Chenran and I truly love each other.” Zhong Mengxuan bit her lip, “Please give us your blessing!”

“Truly love each other?” It was as if she heard some joke. After a few cold laughs, Shi Shi spoke with a trace of disdain, “I think you might not know, Chenran is about to get married soon. If you two truly had what is called love between you, do you think he would agree to getting married?”

A few sentences were enough to break Zhong Mengxuan’s defenses, her tears flowing incessantly.

Such a pitiful appearance, if it were a man, he probably would have already been filled with pity. It’s just unfortunate that the person before her was a woman, and moreover, a woman who had long been in high places, with extraordinary means and schemes.

“Your tears are worthless.” Shi Shi spoke bluntly, “That’s how you used tears to beguile Chenran, isn’t it! However, unfortunately, in his eyes, you are nothing more than a plaything.”

Zhong Mengxuan’s complexion turned even whiter; a hint of resolve flashed in her eyes, then she wiped her tears and lifted her head to look at Shi Shi, her gaze carrying a bit of decisiveness, “Madam Lu, I know you do not like me. But the fact that Chenran and I are together is true, and moreover—”

While speaking, Zhong Mengxuan’s hand rested on her lower abdomen, “I’m pregnant, with Chenran’s child.”

Hearing Zhong Mengxuan’s words, Shi Shi’s expression didn’t show a hint of excitement; it grew even more gloomy, “Do you know what you are saying?”

“Madam Lu, I am not lying to you.” Zhong Mengxuan spoke with huge tears in her eyes, “If you don’t believe me, you can wait until the child is born and have a DNA test done.”

“Terminate it,” Shi Shi said, with absolutely no touch of emotion, her voice growing even colder, “This child doesn’t need to be born. Terminate it. If you want any kind of compensation, feel free to ask. As long as it’s within a reasonable range, I can agree to it.”

Even before coming here, she already knew about the existence of the child. However, she never imagined that Zhong Mengxuan would actually intend to use this child as a bargaining chip. It’s simply a joke.

Zhong Mengxuan clearly hadn’t expected that after revealing her situation, she would receive such a response, “Madam Lu, the child in my belly is your grandchild. How can you be so heartless?”

“Grandchild?” Shi Shi scoffed, “Chenran is still young, and Jiarui is young too. They will have children in the future. Only the children born to them will be my grandchildren. As for the others—”

At this point, when Shi Shi looked towards Zhong Mengxuan’s belly, her eyes carried disgust, “What qualifies them to be called our grandchildren?”

These words completely shattered all Zhong Mengxuan’s self-esteem and confidence. She had considered many possibilities, but she never imagined that the other party would be so cold and ruthless.

“Madam Lu, I will not terminate this child.” Zhong Mengxuan raised her head, “I truly love Chenran. Even if he isn’t willing to recognize this child, I will still give birth to it. This is the child of the man I love; I cannot possibly let go.”

She absolutely would not give up on this child; it was her only bargaining chip. Without this child, her relationship with Lu Chenran would indeed be nothing, and all her previous planning would have been in vain.
