What was Yan Sui thinking and what particular scheme did he have in mind? Even Old Master Meng could not be sure of it. However, there was one thing that could be clearly seen — Meng Ting, for a fact, had transformed from an insignificant marriage alliance chess piece, into someone who could not be neglected by both sides of the families, not even by any family in Haicheng.

"What are you worried about? I don't think Meng Ting has that kind of intelligence." Meng Yide looked at Han Xuejun, and there was a slight impatience written on his face.

He and even Old Master Meng thought that it was a good thing for the Mengs if Yan Sui liked Meng Ting. Han Xuejun did not meet the guests whatsoever. It was as if she was facing a formidable foe so she pulled him here to discuss. He felt this was unnecessary and gradually grew impatient.

"Intelligence..." Han Xuejun said with a sneer, as if she was mocking Meng Yide's naivety. "He can make Yan Sui do this for him in such a short period of time, and you said he doesn't have such intelligence? I think...all of you are being deceived by him."

Han Xuejun actually said 'all of you' to point out three people — Meng Yide, Meng Yigui, as well as their mother, Li Yifei.

"A man of great wisdom often seems slow-witted, or should I say a pig disguised itself to eat the tiger?" Han Xuejun had no smile on her face, she continued, "Think about it again, how did your family treat him all these years? It would be nice if he won't use Yan Sui to help him retaliate against the Mengs."

The impatience on Meng Yide's face disappeared, his brows began to rise, and his next expression became serious. Like what Han Xuejun said, it was not totally impossible. The second branch of their family and Meng Ting were really not that close and the Mengs did not show much kindness to him as well.

Han Xuejun looked at his face and gave him a look of ridicule. She did not think that any of Meng Yide's three illegitimate sons and daughter were easy to handle. Of course, she also somewhat made an error of judgement about this Meng Ting.

Knock, knock. There was a knocking sound at the door. Han Xuejun and Meng Yide subconsciously straightened up as they sat, then Meng Yide said, "Come in."

A maid came in and whispered, "Sir, Madame, Third Young Master asked me to tell you that Seventh Young Master and The Yans' patriarch have arrived."

Han Xuejun and Meng Yide looked at each other. Slowly, they stood up and tidied up their clothes, then together, they came out of the room and went downstairs.

Meng Jiang and Meng Bo were still accompanying Yan Sui and Meng Ting, but in fact, only Wang Feng was talking to them. Yan Sui and Meng Ting occasionally whispered a few words to each other and both of them were obviously giving Meng Ting's brothers a cold-shoulder.

Both Meng Jiang and Meng Bo lost their faces. Meng Xiao and Meng Qin were also not foolish enough to come forward and let those two give them a cold-shoulder.

However, when Meng Yide and Han Xuejun came, Meng Xiao and Meng Qin moved close to each other. Obviously, they were still looking greedily at Yan Sui.

"Dad, Mom." Meng Ting moved closer to Yan Sui and called their attention, then kept silent.

"It's good you came here. I was originally thinking about asking your father to give you a call."
