Chapter 298 - 298 Mysterious Girlfriend

298 Mysterious Girlfriend

Lian Meng was not putting in a good word for her brother. It was just that she sincerely thought that this would never happen with her brother.

If Lian Jing lusted after women, he would not have been alone for so many years, to the point that others maliciously speculated that he had an improper relationship with his male secretary.

Shen Nian frowned and grabbed Lian Meng’s arm, telling her to sit down and listen to her mother.

Based on Shen Yin’s understand of Lian Jing, she also thought that he would not do such a thing. However, the crux of the problem was that she had seen it with her own eyes.

She told the two of them what happened that night and shut her mouth. The entire room fell into a long silence.

Lian Meng reached out and pinched her own cheek. She looked at the floor in a daze and thought that she was dreaming and what she heard just now was just a dream. However, the pain on her cheek clearly told her that what Shen Yin had said just now was the truth.

Her brother really had relationship with a woman in the past. He even allowed that woman to hug him in front of Shen Yin.

What was even more fantastical was that that woman was Shang Sheng’s future girlfriend!

What kind of bizarre relationship was that? Lian Meng’s mind went blank. Shen Nian was the first to react. He held Shen Yin’s hand comfortingly and said, “Mom, don’t worry. If Dad really wants to bring that woman into the household, I’ll definitely bring you away.”

Shen Yin could not help but laugh as she stroked his hair. “Silly, if we want to leave, it’s Mommy who’ll take you away. Don’t worry, even if I’m alone, I’ll take good care of you. It’ll be the two of us, just like when we were overseas, okay?”

“Wait, wait!” Lian Meng still could not accept this fact. When she just wool-gathering just now, she had carefully replayed the whole thing in her mind. Then, she suddenly said, “I don’t think so! If my brother really had that kind of relationship with this woman in the past, Shang Sheng and Sui Ran would know about it.”

Shen Yin was stunned by her statement, and the odd feeling in her heart arose again. She could not help but say, “Maybe your brother treats her like he treats me and doesn’t intend to introduce her to his friends?”

Lian Meng blinked innocently. She wanted to say that her brother was not such a greedy man, but she had been overseas for the past few years and was unable to keep an eye on him, so she was not very sure. She could only try to delay the mother and son who were about to leave Lian Jing. She took out her phone and made a call. “Sister-in-law, wait a moment. I’ll call Shang Sheng and ask him what’s going on.”

On the other end of the line, Shang Sheng was still sleeping. After they left last night, he had gone to another event with someone else and and been drinking until dawn. His head was aching when the phone unexpectedly woke him up. He was furious as he said angrily, “Hello? Who is it? Why are you calling so early. Don’t you know that I’m still asleep? Do you have a death wish?”

“Shang Sheng!” Lian Meng snorted and could not help but roll her eyes. “It’s me!”

When Shang Sheng heard the voice on the other end of the line, he woke up with a jolt. He leaned against the head of the bed and rubbed his throbbing temples. “Meng Meng, why are you calling me so early? Do you miss me? But you have to wait. I’m feeling terrible now. I’ll play with you tonight.”

“Don’t joke around. I have something I urgently need to ask you.” Lian Meng put the phone on speaker mode and deliberately moved it closer to Shen Yin. She asked sternly, “What was that woman called Mo Ru doing last night? How did you two meet? How long have you known each other?”

“Huh?” Shang Sheng’s brain was slow after a hangover. It took him a while to realize what her series of questions were about. He frowned in bewilderment and said, “Why are you asking about this? Why? Are you jealous?”

On the other end of the line, Shen Nian could not help but purse his lips. He had been in the Lian family for so long and had never seen Uncle Shang being serious. He really did not know why his father was willing to make friends with such a person.

Lian Meng’s face also turned red in embarrassment. Afraid that Shen Yin would grow impatient and start overthinking, she scolded him coldly, “I said it’s an urgent matter. It’s extremely urgent! Hurry up and answer my question!”

“Alright, alright.” Shang Sheng rubbed his forehead in frustration. He carefully thought about her question before answering slowly, “Mo Ru was introduced by Sui Ran. I’ve only met her twice. I really don’t know what she does. Why don’t you ask Sui Ran?”

“Why are you asking about her? Did she offend you?” Shang Sheng waited for a long time but did not receive an answer. He looked at the phone screen in surprise and realized that the other party had already hung up.

Lian Meng could not be bothered with this man who was full of nonsense. Seeing that she could not get any useful information from him, she called Sui Ran.

Shen Yin was a little embarrassed to disturb others over her own affairs. She grabbed Lian Meng’s hand and tried to dissuade her. “Forget it. Don’t make things difficult for them. It doesn’t matter who she is.”
