Abused Female Lead And Beautiful Villainess (Quick Transmigration)

Chapter 56.1. Puppy Love? The Played-For-A-Fool Kind (9)



Receiving a gift from Shen Wan made Ji Meng extremely happy. She eagerly changed into the pink little dress. After putting it on, she stood in front of the full-length mirror, carefully examining herself. She hadn’t looked closely before, but upon careful inspection, she discovered that the dress had some sparkling pink stones that looked very much like gems.

Gems?

Could Little Wan afford a dress with gemstones?

Ji Meng felt confused and turned to ask, “Does it look good?”

“It looks absolutely beautiful. Only Little Meng could bring out its true beauty,” Shen Wan praised extravagantly, not holding back on the compliments.

Ji Meng’s mood improved even more. She touched the area with the pink gems and asked, “Are these gemstones? How much money did you save to buy a dress with gems like this?”

“Those gems probably aren’t worth much. They’re likely the cheapest kind,” Shen Wan said without blushing or blinking. “If they were rare gems, it would cost tens or hundreds of thousands, even millions. I couldn’t afford that.”

Ji Meng believed her. Perhaps they just looked nice but weren’t very valuable. Although she didn’t lack money, she usually preferred pink clothes and accessories. These were all custom-made at Ji Chensi’s request. Most of her jewelry was pink diamonds, and she wasn’t familiar with other gemstones, so she couldn’t judge their value.

Ji Meng wore the dress and ran to show off in front of Ji Chensi. When he saw the dress, his eyes lit up, and he asked where it came from. He remembered that among the custom-made dresses, there wasn’t one like this. The style, craftsmanship, fabric, and the sparkling gems on it were all unfamiliar to him. He hadn’t heard of any designer releasing such a new item.

“Little Wan gave it to me,” Ji Meng said proudly. “She said she saved her pocket money to buy it for me. Daddy, does it look good?”

“It looks wonderful, especially on Little Meng. It suits you perfectly,” Ji Chensi praised with a smile, while inwardly pondering where Shen Wan got the money for such a dress. He had touched the gems earlier and, though few in number and small, he didn’t think his judgment was wrong – those tiny gems should be quite expensive. Indeed, that little girl must have some secrets.

But soon he stopped worrying. From her various behaviors, she seemed to have no ill intentions towards his Little Meng. After all, not everyone would be willing to buy such a dress for Ji Meng. All her actions proved that she truly cared for Ji Meng.

In the days leading up to the final exams, Shen Wan painfully yet joyfully worked on practice papers every day. The pain came from the papers themselves, while the joy came from Ji Meng sitting beside her, eating snacks and watching over her. When she finished a paper, Ji Meng would stop eating and grade it for her.

All the classmates knew that Ji Meng, the academic underachiever, was now supervising Shen Wan, the top student, as she did her work every day. This combination was quite amusing. Especially when they heard Ji Meng, the underachiever, saying seriously and earnestly, “Little Wan, you must do the questions carefully. The final exams are coming soon. This is your only strength, don’t lose it. If you do poorly, won’t you be worse than me in every way? Of course, I believe that with your hard work, you’ll definitely achieve good results.”

It seemed a bit odd for an underachiever to remind a top student to study hard and not slack off.

Finally, the final exams arrived, and Shen Wan was liberated from the sea of questions. She walked into school arm in arm with Ji Meng, looking relaxed. The exam seats were arranged according to grades, so Shen Wan was naturally in the first exam room, while Ji Meng the underachiever was in the last one.

“I’ll walk you to your exam room. Are you nervous?” Ji Meng asked seriously with her cute and delicate face, squeezing Shen Wan’s hand tightly. “Good luck.”

“I’m not nervous,” Shen Wan replied confidently. “I’m very sure of myself.” This time, if she didn’t get first place, she wouldn’t be doing justice to her recent efforts. During the time she was supervised by Ji Meng, it felt like she was back in the nutrition pod, doing test papers in the simulation space. It was a truly grueling period.

“Little Meng, are you nervous?”

Ji Meng’s lips curved into a smile. “I’m not nervous at all. Even if I do poorly, it won’t affect me. It’s just a simple process. Alright, you should go into the exam room now. I need to go up too.”

Shen Wan thought to herself: She shouldn’t have asked. The exams really didn’t matter to Ji Meng.

After the final exams, Shen Wan continued to stay at Ji Meng’s villa. Currently, the competition between Ji Corporation and the other three families was still intense. Unless the situation passed, Shen Wan wouldn’t be safe. Recently, Chai Mu and the other two hadn’t come to bother her.

She had no interest in going out to play, and she didn’t get along well with her classmates. However, her desk mate, Xu Lanlan, had become quite close to her, always asking her questions about studying. Shen Wan didn’t mind much, but Xu Lanlan seemed to have decided that they had a good relationship.

Now, during the holiday, Xu Lanlan called to invite her out.

“I’d rather not. The weather is so hot, I don’t want to go outside,” Shen Wan declined.

Xu Lanlan persisted, “Can’t you just keep me company? Shen Wan, aren’t we good friends? I only invited you because there’s a food festival here. We are friends, right? Unless you don’t consider me a friend.”

“But I really don’t want to go,” Shen Wan replied. “Xu Lanlan, aren’t we on good terms? If I’m not willing, how can you force me? Forcing me will make me unhappy. If I’m unhappy, won’t you, as my good desk mate, feel bad? You said we’re friends, so how can you bear to make me unhappy?”

Xu Lanlan felt confused: Why did she suddenly feel bewildered?

“Shen Wan, there really is something fun here. Are you coming or not?” Xu Lanlan was getting anxious. This Shen Wan was really hard to invite out.

Shen Wan sighed, “Xu Lanlan, are you not treating me as a friend? I don’t want to go out, but you’re insisting. You must not be taking me to heart, right? If you really considered me a friend, you wouldn’t force me to do something I don’t like, would you?”

“So, you really don’t treat me as a friend. Alright, I understand,” Shen Wan said seriously. “Fine, since you don’t consider me a friend, let’s end our friendship!”

Xu Lanlan was bewildered: Hey, wait, she just invited her to go out and play. How did it turn into ending their friendship? What did she do wrong?

Especially when Shen Wan directly hung up the phone, Xu Lanlan was still a bit dazed. When she came to her senses and tried to call back, she found that Shen Wan had blocked her. She tried to send a message on social media, but discovered that Shen Wan had blocked her there too. She tried other ways to contact her, only to find that Shen Wan had given her a complete set of blocks.

Xu Lanlan wondered: Why did she suddenly block me? Is her temper so big after befriending the heiress of a financial group?

Finally, Xu Lanlan dialed another number: “Senior Su.”

“How is it? Did you manage to invite Shen Wan out?”

“No, I don’t know what’s wrong with her. Not only did I fail to invite her out, but she also blocked all my contacts. I don’t know if she’s gone crazy. I’m sorry, Senior Su. I can’t invite her out now, and it seems your surprise won’t work either.”

Xu Lanlan felt a bit jealous. That Shen Wan, apart from good grades, had no family background. How did she catch the eye of the three most handsome guys in school? Especially Senior Su, such a gentle and elegant person, who was willing to ask her to invite Shen Wan out to create a surprise just to make her happy. If she were Shen Wan, she would have been overjoyed and accepted Senior Su’s pursuit.

Hearing Xu Lanlan’s words, Su Rong looked up at Chai Mu and Luo Jiunxin, shaking his head to indicate failure. Xu Lanlan hadn’t managed to invite Shen Wan out. They had thought that since Xu Lanlan and Shen Wan were relatively close, she could invite Shen Wan out, and they could create some misunderstandings to make Ji Meng think that Shen Wan had betrayed their friendship.

After hanging up the phone, Su Rong said, “Other people aren’t familiar with her, even less so than Xu Lanlan. We can’t do anything about Ji Meng. It’s the holiday season, and she barely goes out. Even if she does, she’s surrounded by a bunch of bodyguards, making it difficult to do anything.”

Luo Jiunxin rubbed his hair, looking worried. “What should we do? If this continues, our three families will be in danger. We need to find a way to cause some trouble for Ji Chensi. If something happens to Ji Meng, he won’t be able to focus on Ji Corporation’s new ventures.”

Actually, their families hadn’t asked them to get involved in these matters. All the information about their family companies was something they had accidentally overheard. As important members of their families, it was too easy for them to know these things. Especially when they accidentally learned that Ji Chensi was targeting their family companies, and at the same time knew how important Ji Meng was to Ji Chensi. That’s why they planned to target Ji Meng, to divert attention.

“Since Ji Meng is so important to Ji Chensi, if we could kidnap her directly and use her to threaten Ji Chensi, forcing him to stop targeting our three families and withdraw from these industries, do you think he would agree?” Luo Jiunxin suggested. “After all, this kind of thing isn’t unheard of.”

Su Rong shook his head. “Are you stupid? First of all, can we even kidnap Ji Meng? And if he finds out we did it, we won’t just face consequences, we’ll be pursued by the police. We absolutely can’t do it like that.” Seeing Luo Jiunxin’s dejected look, he added, “We can do something, but not the way you imagine. We need to disguise it. And we can’t kidnap Ji Meng, we’d never succeed and might end up in big trouble. It would only make Ji Chensi crack down on our three families even harder.”

Chai Mu looked up. “What do you have in mind?”

“Let’s kidnap Shen Wan,” Su Rong said with a smirk. “You don’t think I asked Xu Lanlan to invite Shen Wan out just to create a surprise for her? Or to create some small misunderstandings?”

“Then what was it for?” Luo Jiunxin asked anxiously.

Su Rong laughed coldly. “Of course, it was to kidnap Shen Wan and make Ji Meng worried. Shen Wan is the first girl Ji Meng has included in her circle since she was brought back ten years ago. It’s been so many days, which shows that she truly considers Shen Wan an important person. Haven’t you heard that she even supervises Shen Wan doing test papers every day? Such dedication proves how important Shen Wan is to her.”

“If something happens to Shen Wan, won’t Ji Meng be anxious? If she’s anxious and upset, it will naturally affect Ji Chensi. I don’t need to tell you how important Ji Meng is to Ji Chensi, right? If something happens to Shen Wan and we don’t know who kidnapped her, Ji Meng will definitely ask Ji Chensi to help find her. While Ji Chensi is busy looking for Shen Wan, his attention will be diverted. As long as Shen Wan isn’t found, Ji Meng won’t let Ji Chensi stop. Best case scenario, Ji Meng gets sick because of this. You know, young girls can be very fragile, especially someone like Ji Meng who is psychologically vulnerable. If we’re lucky and she falls ill, Ji Chensi will definitely be in a panic.”

“As for Shen Wan falling into our hands, we should take good care of her. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be doing justice to the humiliation we’ve suffered. It would be best if we could train her to obey us. When Ji Meng is at her wits’ end with worry, we’ll bring Shen Wan out again. If she’s obedient, she definitely won’t say it was us who kidnapped her. Once she’s compliant, we’ll let her go back and use Ji Meng to cause trouble for Ji Chensi. For example, stealing Ji Chensi’s documents. They don’t have to be too important, just company files, though the more important the better. Ji Meng should be able to enter Ji Chensi’s study easily, right?”

“After the matter is exposed, we’ll let Shen Wan and Ji Meng beg for forgiveness. Even though Ji Meng is the daughter of a financial group, she finally has such a friend. If we make Shen Wan apologize, Ji Meng will definitely soften. But Ji Chensi is different. He won’t forgive someone who stole company secrets and will drive Shen Wan away. But Ji Meng won’t want that, right? What follows is what we’re hoping for – the father and daughter will surely have a falling out. Will Ji Chensi still have the heart to suppress our three families then?”

Luo Jiunxin and Chai Mu were genuinely impressed after hearing this.

Luo Jiunxin was a bit confused. “How can we make Shen Wan obey and control her?”

“It’s simple for a man to conquer a woman,” Su Rong touched the edge of his glasses frame, smiling meaningfully. “After pursuing her for so long without results and being ridiculed, losing face without achieving anything, do you feel content? Don’t you want to see her obediently kneeling before you one day, calling you master? Imagine that scene, isn’t it interesting? No matter how proud she is, once she falls into my hands, she won’t leave unscathed. She’ll have to live in our shadow for the rest of her life.”
