Chapter 852: Chapter 852
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Let me tell you the truth. My feelings for Yuwen Jing are definitely different from my feelings for others. However, I haven’t reached the point where I have to be with him.” It was also Chen Meng’er who realized early, if it had been any later, Chen Meng’er would have fallen into Yuwen Jing’s love net. She would not have been able to extricate herself from it no matter what. “Of course, I can’t rule out the possibility that I will have the chance to be with him again in the future. These are all uncertain things.”
Chen Meng’er’s words caused Elder Liu, Zhuge Yu, and the others to fall into silence.
This was the first time that Chen Meng’er had clearly admitted her feelings for Yuwen Jing in front of them.
For some reason, Elder Liu, Zhuge Yu, and her other uncles felt sour in their hearts when they heard this. They felt very uncomfortable. The little bit of sympathy they had for Yuwen Jing just now had long been forgotten by them. Elder Liu, Zhuge Yu, and the others were just like this when they heard that Chen Meng’er’s feelings for a man were different.
When Chen Meng’er really got married, they didn’t know how reluctant they would be to part with her.
“Girl, do you want to think about it carefully? After all, you are still young,” Elder Liu asked cautiously.
“That’s right, Little Miss. You haven’t met many men yet. That’s why you think that Yuwen Jing is handsome and has a good family background. In fact, there are many people in this world who are more outstanding than Yuwen Jing. Really, if you don’t believe me, Uncle Fatty will introduce you to a few.” The more Fatty spoke, the more excited he became.
“Ah, Sir, why did you hit my head?” Just as Fatty finished speaking, the back of his head was fiercely hit by Elder Liu.
Skinny said with a face full of resentment, “We also want to hit you.”
“What did I say wrong? What I said is not wrong,” Fatty touched the back of his head and said with a face full of grievance.
“You didn’t say anything wrong. Your brain has grown fat.” Zhuge Yu also wanted to crack open Fatty’s head to see what was inside. He was usually quite open-minded, but why did he lose his intelligence at the critical moment?
Seeing Zhuge Yu and the others fighting, Chen Meng’er’s depressed mood was much better. She smiled and said, “Alright, everyone, hurry up and eat. If you don’t eat, the food will get cold, and it won’t taste good. Don’t worry, everyone. If I find a partner, I will definitely inform everyone in advance. I won’t let everyone be in the dark. Of course, I will also listen to everyone’s opinions.”
Chen Meng’er’s words gave Elder Liu and the others some reassurance. This also made Yuwen Jing’s future days a lot more difficult.
“That’s good. I’m relieved.” Elder Liu finally calmed down and finished eating this meal.

Yuwen Jing, who had returned, was not as relaxed as Elder Liu and the others. He did not know if what he said to Chen Meng’er today would be useful. He did not know if Chen Meng’er would accept him again.
Today, he could clearly feel that Chen Meng’er’s attitude toward him was clearly different from before.
The way Chen Meng’er looked at him had long lost the little bit of love from before.
Yuwen Jing had only completely come to his senses today. How could he have felt that Chen Meng’er did not love him and did not care about him? How could he not have noticed the trace of emotion in Chen Meng’er’s eyes when she looked at him in the past?
Yuwen Jing wished he could slap himself a few times now. How could he be so stupid? How could he be so careless in this matter.
Just as Yuwen Jing’s intestines were about to turn green from regret, Allen and Baro finally rushed back with the information they had found. “Master, we’re back. We’ve put in a lot of effort this time and found all the information you wanted. Master, if we don’t investigate, we really wouldn’t know. The Wharton family’s heir, he actually…” Allen’s mouth would one day cause him to be exiled by Yuwen Jing.
Baro also had a terrible headache. He pulled Allen, telling him to quickly shut up.
“Bring it over.” Yuwen Jing did not have the time to pay attention to Allen and Baro’s secret actions. Right now, his mind was filled with Chen Meng’er’s figure and the calm gaze that Chen Meng’er looked at him with today.
Whenever he thought of the calm gaze that Chen Meng’er looked at him with, his heart could not help but throb.
Baro was afraid that Allen would do something to anger his master. He quickly took the information from Allen and handed it to Yuwen Jing.
Yuwen Jing took the information from Baro and flipped through it. The more he read, the darker his face became. He had never expected that the illegitimate son of the Wharton family was from the same village as Chen Meng’er before he returned to the Wharton family. Furthermore, the two of them had known each other since they were children.
This caused Yuwen Jing’s wariness towards Chen Ming to rise by another level.
Yuwen Jing placed the documents on the table and raised his head to ask Baro and Allen, “What new developments have the Wharton family made recently?”
Baro and Allen were Yuwen Jing’s right-hand men. When their master asked this question, they understood in their hearts what their master was trying to do. “Yes, the Wharton family is developing towards Asia. However, the board of directors of the Wharton family hasn’t decided which country they will target.”
“Then you guys go and think of a way to get them to quickly decide on their target.” Yuwen Jing’s hands rhythmically knocked on the office desk.
“Then Master is trying to get the Wharton family to move?” Baro asked.
“They mus stay away from the capital.” Yuwen Jing raised his head and looked at Baro as he spoke with a certain tone.
“Yes, Master. I understand.”
“You guys can leave. I want to calm down by myself.” Yuwen Jing ordered Baro and Allen to leave.
Baro and Allen left Yuwen Jing’s office, Allen couldn’t help but say, “Master is thinking of ways to drive his love rival away from mistress. I really didn’t realize that Master has such a trick up his sleeve.”
“Alright, you, keep your mouth shut. Otherwise, one day, you will be exiled. Don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
