Chapter 26 Making Trouble for Zhuang Momo

After a trip to the cemetery, Zhuang Momo completed the ritual of "seeing" his parents.

However, her relationship with Xu Liancheng had not changed much.

Firstly, Xu Liancheng was really busy. Secondly, she did not want to touch the world that did not belong to her.

Zhuang Momo looked like a cheerful person on the outside, but in her heart, she lacked a sense of security. Otherwise, she wouldn't love to risk her life for everything.

Although she blocked the message of both her evil sister and the scumbag, she still got the news from the class group that her stepsister Zhuang Mengmeng and Xu Qingyun were going to get married.

It was unknown if it were to cover up Zhuang Mengmeng's slightly bulging belly, but the wedding date was set for next week, Zhuang Mengmeng's birthday.

Zhuang Momo naturally did not want to go.

She was afraid that she could not help but take off her high heels and smash them on their heads.

But obviously, her stepmother did not want her to be at ease, and this time, after she did not answer the phone several times, her stepmother directly found her office.

The company's business was about game development, and the confidentiality factor was extremely high.

Not only did entering and exiting require a card password, but there was also human face recognition.

Jia Yuewen also waited downstairs for a long time before finally meeting Zhuang Mengmeng's former university roommate, Jiang Sisi.

Xu Qingyun had been quite famous in the capital for the past few years. He had been awarded as the top ten entrepreneurs of the year and had even been on TV.

"Auntie, congratulations. Mengmeng and Senior Qingyun are really a perfect match."

"By the way, Auntie, Mengmeng already has a wedding. When will Momo arrange hers? A few days ago, I saw her bring her child back to the apartment. She didn't say anything when I asked her." While Jiang Sisi was jealous that the two daughters of Zhuang Family could find rich people, she did not forget to make trouble for Jia Yuewen.

Sure enough, the woman who was laughing as a blooming chrysanthemum froze. She raised her hand to stroke her hair and said with a smile, "You must be mistaken. Our Momo hasn't even married. Where did this child come from?"

"But I still have to thank you, Sisi. Thank you for bringing me in. Oh, right, I was too busy talking. I didn't even give you the invitation letter. You'll definitely come when the time comes."

"No, I clearly saw..."

"Mom..."

"Why are you here?"

Outsiders did not know what had happened in her family. Zhuang Momo had called her Mom that for more than twenty years. This time, she subconsciously called her out.

When Jia Yuewen saw her eldest daughter wearing a brandy suit with a Hermes scarf, she couldn't help but compare her with her own daughter. Then, she had to admit the reality.

Zhuang Momo was really much better-looking than Zhuang Mengmeng.

"Why am I here? Isn't it because I can't find you?"

"Zhuang Momo, have you forgotten that you are still an unmarried girl? You don't go home every day. Where have you been?" Jia Yuewen shouted, instantly startling a group of people who were watching the gossip.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were fixed on her, Jia Yuewen did not feel ashamed. Before she married Zhuang Fugui, she had been singing folk music in her village. She did not have any other specialties except her loud voice and strength.

As Mr. Zhuang made his fortune, she knew how to look beautiful and often went to the beauty salon to do skin service, but with her flabby arms, no matter what clothes she wore, she was always not good-looking.

"Mom, don't make a fuss. Let's talk after I get off work." Zhuang Momo frowned and advised in a low voice.

She still had a case to attend to, so she really didn't have time to play with her.

She thought Jia Yuewen came for nothing but money, but she did not have any, and she would not give her a single cent even if she had one, so she really had nothing to say to her.

"Waiting for you to get off work?"

"That won't do." Jia Yuewen quickly refused, "When you get off work, the gold shop will be closed. How about you give me your salary card directly, and I can fetch it myself."

"I don't have money."

"Is the previous eight hundred and eighty thousand not enough?" Zhuang Momo was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and said it directly.

"No money?" Jia Yuewen immediately jumped up. "How can you not have money? Sisi just told me that you have been promoted and your salary is much more than before."

Zhuang Momo looked up in the direction that Jia Yuewen was pointing. Only then did she understand how her stepmother came in.

Jiang Sisi, who was being stared at by Zhuang Momo, did not hide and walked out of the crowd enchantingly.

"Momo, listen. You are not getting married. Why do you need so much money? Your sister is going to marry Xu Family. What kind of family background is that? Bring her more dowry, and it will also bring you glory."

"That's right, that's right. Sisi is right. When your sister settles down, you will also benefit from it."

Zhuang Momo thought to herself, "I will benefit from it?"

"What kind of benefits?"

"Which award Zhuang Mengmeng has received since childhood has nothing to do with me?"

If not for the fact that the college entrance examination was held by the real-name registration system, Zhuang Momo's stepmother would probably have asked her to take the exam for Zhuang Mengmeng.

Zhuang Momo continued to think, "Moreover, did they forget that the man Zhuang Mengmeng is going to marry was also snatched from my hands?"

Suppressing the grief and indignation in her heart, Zhuang Momo tried hard to maintain a decent smile.

"But I really don't have money, and I haven't got paid this month. Since you said that Xu Family is a big family, they shouldn't be short of my money. Also, if you have nothing to do, go out. Don't affect everyone's work."

"So you don't intend to pay?" A vicious look flashed across Jia Yuewen's chubby face.

"I don't have any money, so what should I give you?"

"Also, I'm not the one getting married. It's Mengmeng."

"Alright then. Sign this and I'll leave." As Jia Yuewen spoke, she took out a crumpled agreement from her bag. It seemed that she had deliberately failed to make it clear. The words on it were very vague, but several numbers could be seen.

"What is this?" Zhuang Momo did not take it but looked at them warily.

Once bitten, twice shy. She was now very resistant to everything that Zhuang Family had given her.

"It's a copy of retirement insurance that costs 20,000 a year. You are not willing to pay for your sister's dowry. Is it expensive to buy insurance for me and your Dad?" Jia Yuewen said impatiently.

"Yes, a copy of insurance worth 20,000. You don't have to pay now. Momo, aren't you even unwilling to pay this bit of money?" Jiang Sisi also chimed in from the side, using the so-called pose of moral superiority to force Zhuang Momo to submit.

If this insurance were authentic, let alone 20,000, even if it were for 100,000, as long as Mr. Zhuang really wanted it, Zhuang Momo would buy it. After all, she had feelings for this family.

"But whose insurance sheet would be made like this, and the words on it could not be seen clearly?" Zhuang Momo thought to herself.

For a moment, she only felt ridiculous and sad.

She continued to think, "Is it because I am too silly, or am I just a fool in their eyes?"

"Since that's the case, then give me the phone number of the insurance company's salesmen. I will talk to them personally and change a better offer for you." With so many people around, she did not want to shed all pretense of cordiality, so she found a way out for Jia Yuewen.

But...

How could Jia Yuewen let Zhuang Momo get her way?

Jia Yuewen immediately sat down on the ground and started throwing a tantrum.

It was just like when she sold fish to others at her young age, every time the customers found her, she would roll on the ground like a troublemaker.

"Ah, I don't want to live anymore. My daughter, who has been raised by me for more than 20 years, is a thankless wretch..."

"Zhuang Momo, you have no conscience. I have raised you for so many years and you don't even buy me a copy of insurance that costs 20,000..."

Jia Yuewen's voice was already loud, and her howling was even more deadly. Not only did the people from the president's office hear the sound, but even the people from the next department heard it.

One by one, they looked over in curiosity. A few people began to advise Zhuang Momo not to be too cold-blooded and stingy. In their eyes, it was only 20,000 yuan. It was less than a month of her salary.

Zhuang Momo was so angry that tears burst out of her eyes. It was not that she did not want to explain, but who would listen? People always stood on the moral high ground to blame others but not to understand others.

The feeling of being shackled by morality was extremely uncomfortable. Zhuang Momo found it difficult to breathe as if a raging fire had been set on her skin, burning every inch of her skin.

Her body was in pain and her heart was tired.

"What are you guys doing?"

As soon as Mr. King stepped out of the elevator, he saw Zhuang Momo's tottering figure. He subconsciously wanted to pick her up, but he restrained himself. It was not appropriate for him to do this with his identity.

Hearing his voice, the spectating crowd immediately quieted down a lot.

Even Jia Yuewen, who was howling on the ground, temporarily held her breath. Looking at Mr. King's handsome face, she could not help but show some infatuation.

Her gaze was too fervent and direct, making it difficult for Mr. King not to pay attention.

But when he saw her face clearly, Mr. King only hated that he might as well be blind for a while.

He quickly walked forward and used his body to isolate Zhuang Momo and Jia Yuewen.

"Who is she?" He was looking at Zhuang Momo.

"My stepmother came to ask for money, but I really don't have any. I have already given her the money I saved before." Zhuang Momo said.

"Oh." Mr. King responded indifferently and turned around.

Jia Yuewen had already knew the identity of this man from Jiang Sisi. When she thought of his wealth, she immediately shouted excitedly.

"This gentleman, you are the wild man who keeps Momo, aren't you? You also have a son. He is several years old!"

Everyone was stunned.

Mr. King was confused.

He thought to himself, "Did I expose my identity so quickly?"

Xu Liancheng was shocked by her words, but he quickly regained a trace of reason.

He thought to himself, "How could my identity be so easy to expose? If true, Zhuang Momo will not have such an expression."

Then...

"Who told you that?" He was not in a hurry to deny it. Instead, he stared seriously into Jia Yuewen's eyes and said.

This made Jia Yuewen feel that she was getting closer to the truth. She immediately shouted excitedly, "Sisi said it. She saw it with her own eyes. It happened just below your company's apartment."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, I saw that Zhuang Momo brought a very good-looking little boy." Jiang Sisi, who had no choice but to come out and answer, said carefully with a trace of flattery in her eyes.

"So, she was also brought in by you?"

"Yes."

"Very good." Mr. King nodded and glanced at his assistant.

Without waiting for his instructions, he saw that Bill had already picked up the intercom and began to call the security department to pick up these people, as well as the HR manager and the director of the advertising department. The latter one was also the male lead of the shameless couple that Zhuang Momo saw that day.

"According to the company regulations, Jiang Sisi, you have been fired."

"Because you took an outsider directly to the secretary's office, the department with the most confidential information in the company, we will reserve the right to sue you."
