All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

Chapter 816: Chapter 816: The Unlucky Twin Sister (45)

He gloomily stared in the direction the car was leaving, guessing if Qiann Yan had attached herself to some wealthy benefactor. Otherwise, how could there be such a spectacle?

Within days, the rumor spread around the school—Qiann Yan had attached herself to a sugar daddy, and it was even an old man.

This rumor, of course, was spread by Zhu Menghui.

Qiann Yan was in the lab, surprised to receive a call from Ma Yuman, who revealed that someone at school had been tarnishing her reputation.

”Miss Pei, leave this matter to us. We won’t let someone like you be slandered.”

Within a few days, Ma Yuman heard that everyone spreading the rumor at school had been punished, including Zhu Menghui, as well as Kong Qingqing and Zhang Xiaofang from her dorm.

Seeing the two with red eyes, on the verge of tears, Ma Yuman surprisingly felt a bit smug.

She had long been fed up with them, and now they’ve learned their lesson. Let’s see if they dare try again.

Of course, she also knew her suspicions were correct; Pei Qianyan’s background was not ordinary.

Zhu Menghui was still incredulous about his punishment, unaware that the Zhu Family was about to undergo a major investigation.

The Zhu Company was too large to be completely clean, and several problems arose with the investigation. The Zhu Family had no idea what was happening and could only face punishment in confusion, losing many projects they were supposed to get, resulting in significant losses.

Even if the Zhu Family was foolish, they knew they must have offended someone.

However, no matter how much they racked their brains, they didn’t know whom they had offended.

This also affected Zhu Menghui to some extent; his home now gave him a cold reception, and his pocket money was significantly reduced, reportedly because the company had just been fined a large sum. His pocket money, of course, had to decrease.

Feeling upset, Zhu Menghui bumped into someone when he returned to school.

He initially wanted to curse but was stunned when he looked up. That familiar face he had pined for countless nights made him unable to say a word.

However, remembering how the owner of that face treated him, he still felt a twinge of anger.

But upon calming down, he realized they were two entirely different people.

The woman in front of him was noticeably shorter, with watery eyes that seemed defenseless, definitely not Pei Qianyan, who was always cold and proud.

”I’m sorry, are you okay?” Pei QianLann was actually very excited inside; she’d been lingering here for days and finally encountered Zhu Menghui.

Noticing Zhu Menghui’s distracted state, she pretended to bump into him in a fluster, which indeed caught his attention.

Zhu Menghui came back to his senses: ”Are you okay? Did I hurt you just now?”

This woman’s face looked exactly like Pei Qianyan’s; there was definitely some connection.

Zhu Menghui thought to himself, if he couldn’t deal with Pei Qianyan, could he not handle this woman?

This woman seemed much easier to please than Pei Qianyan, with her pitiful look more endearing, at least without making him lose face.

”No... I’m fine.” Pei QianLann said as she glanced at the university’s entrance, with endless sorrow written between her brows.

Zhu Menghui immediately caught on: ”Are you looking for someone? I’m a student here. If you need to find someone, I can help you.”

”I’m not looking for anyone, just came to take a look. After all, she probably wouldn’t want to see me.” Pei QianLann dared not face Qiann Yan; the last beating left a deep impression. Without establishing herself in Zhu Menghui’s heart, she temporarily wanted to avoid crossing paths with Qiann Yan.

However, if there was a chance to smear her, she wouldn’t miss it.

”I came to City A to work. I know my twin sister is studying here, and I just planned to take a glance from a distance but never managed to catch her.”
