The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot

Chapter 83: Chapter 83 Two Methods

Seeing her parents suddenly push the door and come in, Zhong Mengfan was startled and immediately tried to calm herself down. “Dad, Mom, it’s so late, why haven’t you gone to bed yet?”

“What do you think?” Zhong Minghao’s sharp gaze fell on Zhong Mengfan. “What exactly have you done? Don’t you know it yourself?”

“What could I possibly have done!” Zhong Mengfan quickly laughed it off, “I’ve been well-behaved recently, I’ve even been going out less. What could I possibly have done!”

Hearing such a reply, Zhong Minghao’s face darkened. He didn’t speak, but he exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Under such immense pressure, Zhong Mengfan felt she was almost unable to breathe and even wanted to spill all her secrets.

“Meng Fan, what exactly have you done, hurry up and tell us.”

Zheng Silin walked straight to Zhong Mengfan’s side and patted her on the back, her tone severe, “You’d better confess now, so we still have time to figure something out. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you when the time comes.”

“I really don’t know what you’re talking about.” Zhong Mengfan still insisted, even yawning, looking tired, “Dad, Mom, it’s not early, I’m very tired, I want to rest.”

“You’re still in the mood to sleep now,” Zhong Minghao suddenly raised his voice and scolded, “Do you even understand the trouble you’ve caused? If you still refuse to talk, then whatever consequences happen, you’ll have to bear them alone. Don’t ask us for help.”@@novelbin@@

After hearing Zhong Minghao’s resolute words, Zhong Mengfan’s heart went into turmoil. But due to fear, she was still hesitating about whether to divulge the matter.

“Tell me the truth.” Zhong Minghao spoke harshly, “Does this incident involving your Second Aunt’s fall have anything to do with you?”

They, her parents, had come over today specifically because of this issue. They understood their daughter. Today, when they saw Zhong Mengfan’s attitude in the living room, it wasn’t right. That’s why they chose to come over and press her, to see if she really was involved.

Seeing Zhong Mengfan acting evasive and unwilling to speak, he was infuriated.

Zhong Mengfan immediately tensed up, and even started sweating on her back, “I… I…”

“What ‘I’!”

Seeing Zhong Mengfan like this, Zheng Silin became even more anxious, “Things have already come to this, and you’re still thinking about hiding it here. Didn’t you hear what your Second Uncle said? He’s planning to call the police.”

“And there’s Nianyao over there, she has the video that directly implicates you. Do you really want to go to jail?”

“No, I don’t want to go to jail.” Zhong Mengfan was terrified, her face instantly turning pale, she tightly grabbed the hand of Zheng Silin beside her, her voice tinged with crying, “Mom, save me, I can’t go to jail. If I go to jail, then I really have no future.”

“Then why don’t you just tell us everything now.” Zhong Minghao raised his voice, “Do you really want to wait until things are beyond repair before you’re willing to speak?”

“It was me, I poured soapy water outside Nianyao’s house.” Zhong Mengfan was nearly crying, “I also plotted to lure Second Aunt over there. I intended to both cause Second Aunt to miscarry and frame Nianyao. Before doing all this, I even made sure to disable the security camera. But… but…”

“Idiot.”

Zhong Minghao stepped forward, raised his hand, and slapped Zhong Mengfan across the face.

“Slap—”

A crisp slap rang out, and Zhong Mengfan’s cheek swelled up visibly. However, at this moment, she didn’t even dare to cover her face. She could only stand there, lowered head, continuously sobbing.

“Husband, what should we do now?”

Although Zheng Silin had already suspected as much, when she truly heard that it was Zhong Mengfan who had done it, she still felt dizzy. However, the pressing matter was not to discipline her daughter but to find a way to resolve this issue. Clearly, the Second family didn’t intend to let it slide easily.

“There are only two ways now.” Zhong Minghao’s tone was grim, “One is for Meng Fan to directly go confess this matter to our parents, and then we’ll see what they decide to do. If they are willing to speak, maybe your Second Uncle will agree to not call the police.”

“Second, we go find Nian Yao. She has the evidence against Meng Fan. If she is willing to destroy the recording, then Meng Fan will be safe.”

“Let’s go find Nian Yao!” Zheng Silin, after much consideration, still felt this was the best option, “Our parents don’t know what happened, and tonight they didn’t seem very open to the idea of calling the police, but the Second family clearly hasn’t given up on that plan. If Meng Fan goes and confesses, and the Second family directly calls the police, then Meng Fan is really in trouble.”

“Should we go find Nian Yao?” Zhong Mengfan was clearly reluctant, “But even if we go talk to her, she won’t agree!”

This time, she had done this in retaliation against Nian Yao. Now that she had to confront Nian Yao, Nian Yao would definitely figure out the ins and outs of it. Whether she’d agree to destroy the evidence was unclear, but she would definitely face humiliation from Nian Yao.

“Then just wait for the Second family to call the police, and go to jail!”

Seeing Zhong Mengfan like this, Zhong Minghao was furious. He grabbed Zheng Silin, ready to leave, and decided to let it be.

“I’ll go, I’ll go.”

Seeing her parents about to leave, Zhong Mengfan became desperate and quickly spoke up, stopping the two of them.

Inside the room—

Nian Yao was holding a tablet, leisurely watching a movie.

After coming to this world, she was very interested in these electronic devices. When she had free time, she also liked to watch TV dramas.

However, she had undergone surgery today and was somewhat tired. She should be resting, but she felt it was better to wait a bit longer tonight since someone was coming.

“Knock, knock, knock—”

A knocking sound came, and a smile formed on her lips, “They’re finally here!”

She got up, spoke, and then the family of three from the main family entered.

Nian Yao casually walked to the sofa, then sat down, her arms crossed in front of her, “Uncle, Auntie, it’s so late, aren’t you resting yet?”
