Chen Meng’er had not been in a good mood during this period of time.
The only thing that made her feel good was Qu Yaotian’s unsurprising victory in the election.
However, no matter how unsurprising, the moment the answer was announced, everyone in the Qu family could not help but cheer. This was because Qu Yaotian’s victory in this election signified that the Qu family’s status in the capital had risen by another level.
Even Elder Qu, who had always opposed Qu Yaotian’s participation in the election, could not help but smile when he found out the result.
The fact that Qu Yaotian had won the election made Chen Meng’er different in everyone’s eyes. Han Ying, who had always seen Chen Meng’er as someone who wanted to snatch the family’s assets from them, had also changed her attitude towards Chen Meng’er.
This was the first time that Han Ying had used her gentle expression to look at Chen Meng’er and ask what she wanted to eat. When she personally cooked today, Chen Meng’er was deeply shocked.
She even thought that her aunt had been possessed by something bad. In the end, Qu Haoxiang pulled Chen Meng’er along and secretly explained to her in her ear. Only then did she know why her aunt, Han Ying, had changed.
She did not know if it was because she had been abused too much, but she was more used to Han Ying’s cold, arrogant expression that did not put her in her eyes. She was not used to Han Ying’s sudden enthusiasm towards her at all.
For some reason, every time Han Ying showed her a gentle expression, goosebumps would appear on her body.
On the day Qu Yaotian won the election, while Elder Qu was happy, he summoned all the Qu family members back to the Qu family. Although Chen Meng’er’s surname was not Qu, in Elder Qu’s heart, Chen Meng’er was a well-deserved Qu family member.
Chen Meng’er also received a call from Elder Qu himself.
Elder Qu called everyone back to the Qu family. At first, Chen Meng’er still felt weird, thinking that something big had happened to the Qu family, causing her grandfather to mobilize so many people. In the end, when she went back, she heard what had happened.
It turned out to be Elder Qu. Because Qu Yaotian had succeeded in the election this time, some people in the family were too complacent and did some things that were not beneficial to the Qu family.
Qu Haoxiang and the rest of the younger generation felt that their grandfather was worrying too much. How strict was the Qu family’s upbringing? In the capital, everyone knew that the Qu family never produced profligate children. The Qu family members were all talented people.
However, they weren’t the ones who caused trouble.
Did they dare cause trouble outside? If they caused trouble outside and their parents found out, it wouldn’t matter. However, if their grandfather found out, they would be skinned alive.
Qu Haoxiang and the others didn’t hear the hidden meaning in Elder Qu’s words. Chen Meng’er did. However, she wasn’t the kind of person who meddled in other people’s business.
Chen Meng’er looked around and could not help but shake her head. Those people who should have understood her grandfather, Elder Qu, did not. Each and every one of them was still rejoicing over the change in the Qu family’s status in the capital.
Sometimes, Chen Meng’er could not help but admire her grandfather, Elder Qu’s foresight.
However, Chen Meng’er estimated that her grandfather, Elder Qu, wished that he did not have such foresight. Now, he wished that what he said before was just his own groundless worry.
When Chen Meng’er took the phone call from Xu Lele from Zhuge Yu, she did not find it strange. However, when she heard Xu Lele’s very serious voice on the phone, saying, “Meng’er, I just got the news from my second brother that your brother’s place to study was snatched away by someone.”
