The True Heiress And The Fake Heiress Ended Up Together - Chapter 69
Eight people in one villa.
There are no maids, no cooks; everything has to be done by themselves.
Qin Mianmian rarely interacts with strangers, as she is almost always with Jian Ying’an, even in the dormitory. This is very uncomfortable for her.
So, early in the morning, Qin Mianmian was already thinking about what to bring.
“Towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes… I should bring four sets.”
“Pajamas must be packed.”
“Will I need this?”
Qin Mianmian picked up a large stuffed animal, deciding to bring it. When placed on the bed, she would sleep more soundly.
Jian Ying’an watched her pack: “And bed sheets and quilt covers.”
Qin Mianmian: “Right! And those!”
“What about skincare products?”
“Oh, oh, skincare products!”
“Bring some common medicines too.”
“That’s true!”
“…”
After a while, Jian Ying’an joined the packing effort. A little later, Qin Mianmian stood with her hands empty, watching Jian Ying’an prepare.
Jian Ying’an frequently goes to film sets, so she knows what essentials are usually missing.
Moreover, she is already accustomed to taking care of Mianmian and even brought some of Mianmian’s favorite small toys.
Four large suitcases were stacked in the living room.
Qin Mianmian: “We have to live there for a week…”
Jian Ying’an went to deal with her leave of absence.
There was a knock at the door outside.
When the door opened, Li Dong’s attire was extremely exaggerated. She was so afraid of being recognized that she was armed from head to toe, not even daring to expose her fingertips.
Qin Mianmian’s expression was subtle: “Did someone see you on the way and call the hospital?”
Li Dong: “Don’t say so much, where is Jian Ying’an!”
Qin Mianmian closed the door.
You want to see my Jie (older sister) as soon as you come in? I won’t let you!
The knocking was persistent, reaching the point of being disturbing.
In the end, the door was opened to let Li Dong in.
As soon as Li Dong entered, she saw the four large suitcases in the living room and froze: “I came at a bad time, are you moving?”
Jian Ying’an returned after arranging her leave: “What are you doing here?”
Li Dong felt hot in her thick clothing, so she took off her jacket and put her hands on her hips upon hearing the question.
How dare Jian Ying’an ask!
If it weren’t for Jian Ying’an, would she have met Meng Yaran!
And after meeting her, would she be unable to leave, and then be pursued by her for almost a week, making even attending classes restless?
Her parents even asked her what was going on! How was she supposed to explain!
Should she say, ‘Your unfilial daughter went to be kept by a rich woman, and now the rich woman has taken a liking to her and plans to marry her home?’
That’s right, Meng Yaran proposed to her last night. It was so fast that Li Dong was completely stunned.
She thought Jian Ying’an and Qin Mianmian had been dragging things out for so many years, and their status hadn’t been clarified yet. She was still planning to be kept by the rich woman for a while longer and eat a little more soft rice.
But this was becoming a lifelong commitment!
Li Dong chickened out. After thinking it over, she didn’t know where to go, so she came to find Jian Ying’an.
She put her hands on her hips: “This is all your fault!”
For some reason, Qin Mianmian subconsciously looked at Li Dong’s stomach. She felt she had watched too many TV dramas.
Jian Ying’an noticed Qin Mianmian’s movement.
Jian Ying’an: “…”
Li Dong stammered out the whole story, mentioning that Meng Yaran had given her a large diamond ring last night.
The large diamond ring sparkled under the light.
It blinded her eyes.
The meaning behind the diamond ring was more than what little Li Dong could bear.
In the hot spring resort, some people were still dragging things out, while others achieved a positive outcome.
Jian Ying’an raised an eyebrow. Meng Yaran moved that fast? Then… Jian Ying’an asked, “Besides the proposal, how far have you two gone?”
Li Dong’s old face blushed, unable to speak.
Jian Ying’an understood; she hadn’t succeeded in freeloading.
Meng Yaran’s soft rice wasn’t so easy to eat. She felt a little envious again.
How many years had she been raising Mianmian!
This matter happened because Jian Ying’an wanted to connect with Meng Yaran, which led to Meng Yaran and Li Dong being together. Since things had progressed to this stage, Li Dong had a reason to come to her door.
Qin Mianmian: “So fast, ah…”
She looked at Jian Ying’an, and in a trance, Qin Xing’s words from last night repeated endlessly in her ears.
Jian Ying’an also felt it was fast: “What was Meng Yaran’s expression at the time?”
Li Dong didn’t really want to recall it. Just thinking about it made her face flush, all the way up to her ears.
The atmosphere at the time was perfect. If the waiter hadn’t come in at the end, she would have taken the diamond ring. If she had accepted it, she really wouldn’t have been able to get away.
If you ask her if she likes Meng Yaran?
If she didn’t like her, would she have reached the point where Meng Yaran intended to propose and take responsibility…
And at that moment, Li Dong fled.
Li Dong: “I haven’t thought it through yet. Marriage is such a big thing.”
She sat down with an uneasy expression. The soft sofa didn’t relax her mood; she was still nervous.
Marriage means two people being together forever.
Qin Mianmian: “You can get divorced after you’re married.”
Jian Ying’an let out a false cough.
Meng Yaran had been divorced before, although there was no emotion involved, only calculations.
But this was clearly not the right time to say that.
As expected, when Li Dong thought of this, she was frantically backing out, afraid of divorce.
Meng Yaran was a woman who had been in society for many years, while Li Dong was just a female college student. How could she have such courage?
But it was obvious that both of them had developed feelings, but Meng Yaran was more direct.
Upon realizing her feelings, she immediately proposed.
With Meng Yaran’s intelligence, she must have known it would scare Li Dong away, yet she still did it.
‘Do what you like’—this credo is truly great.
Li Dong tried hard not to think about it, looking for something to divert her attention. Her eyes landed on the suitcases: “Where are you two going? Traveling?”
Qin Mianmian smiled sweetly: “My Jie and I are going to participate in a romance reality show!”
Swish. A knife plunged into Li Dong’s heart.
How could she forget! These two people were beasts! Beasts who had been feeding her dog food since childhood!
Li Dong cursed under her breath. So heartless, serves you right for dragging things out for so long.
Meng Yaran was still better. She would just keep Li Dong locked up in the house, and then the next morning, they would go their separate ways. Showing affection wouldn’t hurt others.
They were more kind-hearted.
Thinking of Meng Yaran, Li Dong felt annoyed again.
It seemed that accepting it wasn’t a big deal, but she also felt it couldn’t be so rash.
She and Meng Yaran were not Qin Mianmian and Jian Ying’an. Jian Ying’an and Qin Mianmian had known each other for so long. Although they hadn’t gotten together, as soon as that veil was lifted, they could live a blissful and shameless life.
Jian Ying’an was brutal: “You depart tomorrow. You have one day to evade.”
One day, what ample time.
Li Dong found Jian Ying’an increasingly unpleasant to look at. She realized that Jian Ying’an and Meng Yaran were cut from the same cloth!
Although her relationship with Qin Mianmian was only average, because Qin Mianmian was wholeheartedly devoted to Jian Ying’an.
But at this moment, Li Dong felt that she should have more to talk about with Qin Mianmian.
So Li Dong looked at Qin Mianmian. She didn’t speak, but her eyes conveyed her most genuine thoughts.
Jian Ying’an saw that Qin Mianmian was curious about how Li Dong and Meng Yaran got together, so she gave them the floor.
Then she walked out to call Meng Yaran.
Why are you so fast?
Meng Yaran was not surprised to receive a call from Jian Ying’an; she had expected it: “Would you like to come to my company to talk?”
The Ning Group had not changed its name yet. Jian Ying’an walked into the company and felt the atmosphere, thinking that the name change would happen soon.
Meng Yaran truly had ability.
The CEO’s office was on the eighteenth floor.
The entire floor belonged to Meng Yaran. The office also included a lounge.
Jian Ying’an looked at the floor-to-ceiling window.
Assistant: “The view here is excellent, isn’t it? Miss Li also loved looking at it before.”
Jian Ying’an chuckled: “Does she come here often?”
Assistant: “Yes, and she often rests here.”
Walking into the office, Meng Yaran had already prepared hot tea and was waiting for Jian Ying’an to sit down. After the assistant left, the clever woman’s expression became serious.
As if a tricky, major event was at hand.
Meng Yaran watched Jian Ying’an sit down and calmly sip the tea. She watched Jian Ying’an drink it.
The office lights were bright, but Meng Yaran’s mood was not bright at all.
She asked: “Did Li Dong go to your place?”
Jian Ying’an nodded, put down the teacup. She could drink coffee but wasn’t very fond of tea.
Meng Yaran was slightly displeased. She frowned but didn’t say anything.
Jian Ying’an knew what she was thinking: “Mianmian is chatting with her.”
Meng Yaran’s expression then softened.
The two exchanged glances and laughed simultaneously.
Meng Yaran stated directly: “I proposed to Li Dong.”
She took out the ring. Since Li Dong hadn’t accepted it, the ring was still with her. She would work hard to give the ring away.
Li Dong was great. She would listen to Meng Yaran talk about trivial things and then earnestly offer her own perspective.
Even if it wasn’t much help, Meng Yaran liked the feeling of someone worrying about her wholeheartedly.
She thought Li Dong was silly and very cute.
And her body was very soft.
The diamond ring sparkled under the light. If sunlight hit it, it would be even brighter.
Meng Yaran: “She didn’t accept.”
Jian Ying’an: “…You’re too fast.”
Meng Yaran was puzzled: “Am I fast?”
She felt that with all her efforts and care over the past week, she wasn’t fast at all.
Jian Ying’an: “Anyway, you scared her. She’s overthinking things now.”
Meng Yaran looked solemn: “Let’s talk about the logistics chain first.”
“The Ning Group established its logistics chain very early. It’s no exaggeration to say it accounts for over twenty percent of the country. The Qin Group has always been our major client, but that couple’s appetite has been growing lately, and they don’t even plan to share a piece of the pie with us.”
In short, the profit distribution was inadequate, and Meng Yaran also had an opinion.
That’s why she tried to cooperate with Jian Ying’an. She would naturally be happy to find a replacement for the Qin Group.
However, Jian Ying’an currently only manages a small company. Even if the company has great potential, it will take at least a few years to develop.
She can’t wait for this small company to grow for several years.
Currently, Su Nan has found a group of partners to prevent Meng Yaran from incurring losses, but this is not a long-term solution.
Meng Yaran bringing this up at this moment had only one reason: “I can terminate the cooperation with the Qin Group right now, but I must be successful in at least one area, either love or business, right?”
This woman spoke beautifully, hitting Jian Ying’an’s sweet spot.
In the long run, this could be a win-win situation, but Meng Yaran took on a huge risk, so she wouldn’t easily give in.
Now, she was giving Jian Ying’an an opportunity.
Meng Yaran: “Don’t rush to refuse. At most, I’m just letting you have a chance; I’ll handle the rest.”
As long as Li Dong isn’t really scared away…
Her demands were very low, and she was very confident in herself.
This was a mutual opportunity.
Coincidentally, Jian Ying’an was also very confident in herself.
Even if Li Dong really decided to give up on Meng Yaran, Jian Ying’an was confident that she could show Meng Yaran the benefits and prevent her from regretting it.
Moreover, Li Dong might not refuse.
She clearly liked Meng Yaran as well; she was just scared. For the sake of her friend’s happiness, Jian Ying’an would also encourage Li Dong to consider Meng Yaran more.
Jian Ying’an had no reason to refuse: “Okay.”
