Chapter 565: Chapter 3: First Encounter (Part 3)

Thank you, “Heart as vast as the sea” sister, for the reward, muma~

*****************************

Li Shuning felt a strange stir in her heart.

She had been married into the Yun Family for several years, and was somewhat familiar with their circumstances.

As far as she knew, Yun Zixin was still outstanding, and had been engaged to his girlfriend a long time ago. Both families were already in accord, and Meng Ting seemed nice enough. She had only met her a few times, but her impressions were quite favorable.

Meng Chang didn’t seem like the sort of person who couldn’t see reason either.

So why would something like this happen?

Why would one even consider having an illegitimate daughter marry into the Yun Family?

Is this a slap in Yun Family’s face?

Considering Yun Zixin and Meng Ting’s relationship was still quite good.

So why would Meng Chang prepare to have the illegitimate daughter take her place?

Such abnormality, it’s a pity she’s entered the Task World and has the storyline to watch. But now that someone else has entered the Task World, she doesn’t know the person’s storyline, which is indeed a bit unsettling.

Could this illegitimate daughter be the tasker from another reality world?

Li Shuning knew about Yun Zimo’s actions, but the world is so vast, to know which person has changes is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Unless the person truly does something more intense or conspicuous, it’s possible to make a judgment.

If today’s encounter was actually the task, what a coincidence that would be.

After dinner, Li Shuning went to the new house with the child.

Under everyone’s eyes, the child rolled around on the new bed, playing gleefully.

The aunt was very happy, and gave Yun Fei a generous red envelope.

That day, after Li Shuning went back, she told Yun Zimo about the affair.

Yun Zimo didn’t have any leads either. Although he had his own channels, this kind of thing isn’t something that can be found out quickly.

Upon hearing Li Shuning’s words, he also felt something was suspicious.

Yun Zimo immediately sent someone to investigate the illegitimate daughter.

This investigation indeed uncovered some things.

Li Shuning witnessed some of the energy Yun Zimo possessed in the real world; in just a few hours there was such a detailed investigation report.

The woman named Meng Jingjing came from a remote mountainous area.

The data showed that Meng Jingjing depended on her mother since childhood. Her mother became pregnant out of wedlock and cut ties with her parents, while Meng Jingjing was timid and not sociable.

Meng Jingjing’s mother had passed away two weeks ago.

Her grandparents did not take care of her, but an uncle took Meng Jingjing in.

Just a week ago, Meng Jingjing suddenly fled her uncle’s home, came to the Capital City, and approached the Meng Family.

Meng Chang’s wife, from a prestigious family, was shocked at the sudden emergence of an illegitimate daughter.

What’s more, this illegitimate daughter was only two years younger than Meng Ting, which made her hard to accept.

But as her daughter’s wedding drew nearer, she couldn’t leave and thus had to handle Meng Ting’s affairs. She was too lazy to bother with Meng Jingjing.

Once her daughter is married, she would return to her own family to avoid seeing it altogether.

No one knows how Meng Jingjing managed it, but Meng Chang was being really good to her, despite having detested her initially.

In just a week’s time, he even entertained the idea of marrying the illegitimate daughter to Yun Zixin; how charming can this illegitimate daughter be?

But this isn’t something that can be achieved just by having the thought.

Bear in mind, the Yun Family is a prestigious family in the Capital City, far above the Meng Family.

Still, Meng Chang seemed like a changed person, treating Meng Jingjing exceptionally well.

When Yun Zimo’s people investigated, they were very cautious. In the videos taken, Meng Jingjing’s situation was completely different from her original state in the mountainous area.

Both her demeanor and personality suggested she’s not the same person.

Could this person be the tasker?

The couple nearly agreed that she must be.

But it’s still uncertain, it seems they must attend the wedding tomorrow.

Before they had the chance to sleep, Yun Zimo’s phone rang.

From Yun Zimo’s expression, something seemed off.

After hanging up the phone, Yun Zimo’s expression returned to calmness.

“Zimo, what’s wrong?”

“Meng Ting might be in trouble.”

“Shall we go and check?”

Yun Zimo nodded and took Li Shuning out.

Soon, Yun Zimo had brought Li Shuning to a bar.

The bar was buzzing with voices, very lively.

Yun Zimo took Li Shuning to a private room on the second floor, where they could see the situation downstairs, but those downstairs couldn’t see them.

But Li Shuning didn’t notice anything wrong; Meng Ting didn’t seem to be there.

“Don’t worry, when I had someone investigate Meng Jingjing, I made sure they’d keep an eye out. Unexpectedly, this woman still took the bride out late at night, and they’re at a bar. It feels fishy to me, look, there they are.”

Li Shuning looked from the second floor to the entrance downstairs, seeing five or six women along with three or four men entering.

Meng Ting was prominently among them.

And Meng Jingjing was of course there too.

Li Shuning was a little speechless; Meng Ting seemed a bit too “naïve,” didn’t she?

This sister clearly didn’t get along well with her, yet she followed her to such a bar full of riff-raff the night before her wedding; how big-hearted is she?

Her father wanted to ruin her wedding so he could let her sister take her place.

Li Shuning shook her head, wondering how Yun Zixin’s life would be with such a wife.

Li Shuning disagreed with Meng Ting’s actions, and Yun Zimo naturally disagreed too.

His investigations showed that Meng Ting’s background was clear; she was an ordinary girl from a good family, no combat power, yet she was here at midnight without an awareness of self-preservation.

The biggest point was that she was about to join the Yun family, and if something happened, it wouldn’t just be her problem.

The two of them were keeping an eye on what was happening downstairs; Li Shuning originally thought about using her spiritual power, but if the woman was someone from another reality world, there could be unknown abilities, and using the spiritual power rashly might be risky if discovered.

Therefore, both Li Shuning and Yun Zimo watched with their eyes.

Of course, they weren’t staring blatantly; their gazes were on the stage, with eyes watching Meng Ting and the others from the corners.

Once the group arrived, they seemed to start drinking.

Gradually, the men and women began to cuddle together.

By this time, Meng Ting also had a drink.

That drink was offered by Meng Jingjing.

Drinking the alcohol, combined with the atmosphere of the bar, made the group of men and women somewhat insane.

The men and women then went to the toilet together.

At this time, Meng Ting also seemed unable to handle her drink well, slumping at the bar.

Meng Jingjing spoke to someone nearby and helped Meng Ting out of the bar.

Li Shuning and Yun Zimo did not move, there were others watching outside.

Meng Jingjing handed Meng Ting over to Meng Family’s driver, as if she had no other purpose in calling her out today.
