Chapter 103 Cover up
After hearing Master Jiang's words, everyone except Meng Hui and Shen Jiaojiao widened their eyes and looked back and forth at Master Jiang and Shen Jiaojiao in disbelief.

Meng Wan, in particular, felt anxious and panicked, fearing that Shen Jiaojiao would take advantage of the situation to pressure others.

Mr. Meng coughed, his eyes showing some vigilance.

"Master Jiang's tone of voice sounds like he is familiar with my Jiaojiao family?"

He had to think about it, Murong Zi was like this before - spreading rumors that he wanted to marry her, and then came to visit her with great fanfare.

Trampling Shen Jiaojiao's reputation into the mud.

At this moment, people are still talking about her outside, and many ordinary people even say crazy things about her...

Mr. Jiang was also a father with several daughters at home. He quickly understood the worry in Mr. Meng's eyes and burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Look at what you said, am I that kind of person?"

Master Jiang shook his head with a smile and continued to explain.

"My wife likes Miss Shen and asked me to take care of her. After getting along with Miss Shen, I also think she has a very good temper."

"Earlier in Meizhuang, it was Miss Shen who took care of it on behalf of my Yi'er. How could I remain indifferent?"

"Besides, Miss Shen is somewhat similar to several of my children. When I see her, I feel like I am seeing my own daughter. She is very cordial."

As he spoke later, Mr. Jiang showed a kind smile on his face, completely different from his previous seriousness.

Shen Jiaojiao smiled and saluted him again, "Thank you Uncle Jiang for your love."

Opposite her, Meng Wan was sitting on pins and needles, anxious and angry. She couldn't understand why even Mr. Jiang was siding with Shen Jiaojiao.

It was clearly Shen Jiaojiao who took away her life!
Why is everyone surrounding Shen Jiaojiao?

Seeing that Meng Wan was not in a good mood, Mrs. Meng felt a faint worry in her heart. She raised her hand and put it on her shoulder, asking softly, "Wan'er, what's wrong?"

Meng Wan came back to her senses, pursed her lips and smiled at Mrs. Meng, indicating that she was fine.

Mrs. Meng looked at Shen Jiaojiao again, with a hint of warning in her tone, "In that case, Jiaojiao, please tell Sir Jiang what's going on."

Shen Jiaojiao smiled and nodded.

She heard the warning in her adoptive mother's words, but she had no intention of covering up for Meng Wan as her adoptive mother wished.

In addition to Miss Zhou's matter, she also had to settle old accounts with Meng Wan today!

"Please sir, thoroughly investigate the Meng Mansion's disappearance case." She bowed directly to Mr. Jiang.

This time she no longer called 'Uncle Chiang', but 'Master Chiang'.

This means that she does not intend to settle the matter, but will make it worse.

"Jiaojiao!" Mrs. Meng shouted out of control.

She straightened up, turned around and bowed to Mrs. Meng again, "Father, please allow me to tell you the cause and effect."

Having said this, even if she was reluctant, Mrs. Meng could only watch her continue.

Shen Jiaojiao described in detail what she had discovered today and what Miss Zhou had explained.

During this period, Mrs. Meng tried to change the subject many times, but Master Meng stopped her every time.

After listening to the whole process, what else does Mr. Meng not understand? He immediately frowned and glared at Meng Wan.

"Wan'er, does this matter have anything to do with you?!"

Meng Wan forced out a stiff smile, "Dad, what are you talking about? How could I do such a thing?"

As he said that, he turned to look at Mrs. Meng, her eyes full of prayer.

Mrs. Meng felt sorry for her daughter and helped her speak.

"Master, don't scare Wan'er, she has nothing to do with this matter."

Seeing her mother helping her, Meng Wan's heart calmed down and her brain started working rapidly.

The most urgent thing is to distance yourself!
"Dad, you can't doubt me just because of my sister's words..." Meng Wan's eyes were full of tears and she looked at Master Meng aggrievedly.

"Even a prisoner has a chance to be interrogated, right? How can you directly convict me?"

Seeing both mother and daughter saying this, Mr. Meng was a little confused for a moment, not knowing who was right and who was wrong.

"It seems that Miss Meng needs the government to make a ruling?" Mr. Jiang looked at the gap and interjected.

After saying that, he glanced at Meng Wan meaningfully.

Meng Wan felt chills running down his spine, and he lowered his head in feigned aggrievement, not daring to say anything more.

Once Mr. Jiang is asked to investigate further, he will definitely interrogate the maids and servants, just in case there is a loose mouth among them, and all the things she has done will be revealed...

No!

She would never allow such a thing to happen.

Seeing that everyone was targeting Meng Wan, the motherly love in Mrs. Meng's heart was completely aroused, and she felt even more pity for her daughter.

"From the beginning to the end, Jiaojiao never said that it was Wan'er who did it. What's wrong with you two? Are you trying to bully my Wan'er?"

Mrs. Meng did not dare to say anything against Mr. Meng and Mr. Jiang, so she could only turn her attention to Shen Jiaojiao.

"Jiaojiao, tell me, how could Wan'er be such a person?"

Shen Jiaojiao looked respectful and replied seriously: "Wan'er is indeed not such a person."

There was a glint in her eyes, and a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Of course Meng Wan is not such a simple person, she is a hundred times worse than everyone imagined!
Mrs. Meng nodded repeatedly, pretending not to understand the deeper meaning of her words.

"Yeah, what bad intentions can Wan'er have? It's just a very simple thing, not that complicated."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Mr. Jiang and said with an apologetic smile: "Mr. Jiang, my Jiaojiao is ignorant and has been spoiled by her family. She likes to be petty and magnify small things. Don't be as knowledgeable as her."

This was said very skillfully.

It seemed that he was belittling Shen Jiaojiao, but in fact he was giving an eviction order to Mr. Jiang to leave.

Shen Jiaojiao opened her mouth again and again, wanting to refute her adoptive mother's words, but felt that there was no point in doing so.

This wasn't the first time she knew that her adoptive mother's heart was biased, and she had already completely turned towards Meng Wan.

"Shen Jiaojiao, let go." Meng Hui's deep voice came from her ears.

She was suddenly startled to find that Meng Hui had stood beside her at some point, with his big palm still wrapped around her hand.

"Let go, be careful to break your nails." Meng Hui said again.

Shen Jiaojiao's clenched fists slowly unclenched, revealing her pale palms.

The palms were bleeding from being pinched by nails.

Soon, blood overflowed from the gap made by the nail. The blood beads were shockingly red against the white palm.

Looking at the mark, a chill flashed through Meng Hui's eyes, but his expression remained indifferent.

He took out a clean handkerchief, pressed it gently on Shen Jiaojiao's palm, and waved his hand to order Guangshan to get the golden sore medicine.

Fortunately, everyone's attention was entirely on Meng Wan at the moment, and there was no extra thought to pay attention to the two of them.

"Don't be afraid." Meng Hui comforted her softly, and raised his hand to tuck her hair hanging on her cheek behind her ear.

"I'm here, just go ahead and say it."

Shen Jiaojiao suddenly raised her head and looked at Meng Hui.

When their eyes met, she could easily see the indulgence in her adopted brother's eyes.

Her intuition told her that her sworn brother knew that she was going to expose Meng Wan today, and even knew that there was Wang Zhu outside Meng's house waiting to come in and identify him.
