Reincarnation: I Have Always Been Rich Chapter 504

Chapter 504: Chapter 504

Madam Qu’s words made her daughters-in-law very surprised. They had originally thought that their in-laws knew this girl! They were still wondering if this girl’s ident.i.ty was extraordinary. Otherwise, their in-laws would not be so enthusiastic towards her. One had to know that their in-laws had never been so enthusiastic towards even their own grandchildren.

And what made them even more surprised was that the people who came to the Qu family’s birthday banquet this time were all personally invited by their in-laws. And now it turns out that they didn’t actually did not know each other. What was going on?

“My name is Chen Meng’er.” Chen Meng’er, on the other hand, generously reported her name.

Chen Meng’er’s name made Madam Qu and the Qu family’s daughter-in-law feel that her name was somewhat familiar, but for a moment, they could not remember.

“Can I call you Meng’er from now on?” Madam Qu now had the image of a kind grandmother. Madam Qu’s current appearance made them unable to help but be curious. The grandchildren of the Qu family, who were walking over, all thought that their eyes were playing tricks on them. To think that their iron willed grandmother would actually show such an expression. It really gave them quite a scare.

Murong Qi looked at Chen Meng’er, who was surrounded by the Qu family members and looked at by Yuwen Jing with doting eyes. The jealousy that was buried in her heart suddenly surged out.

The way she looked at Chen Meng’er was like a sharp sword dipped in poison, shooting straight at Chen Meng’er. The hatred in Murong Qi’s eyes was too intense, causing Chen Meng’er, who was surrounded by the Qu family members, to be unable to ignore it even if she wanted to.

Chen Meng’er raised her eyes and looked at Murong Qi indifferently. She had an impression of Murong Qi. In her previous life, she had replaced the lost child of the Qu family and enjoyed all the happiness that belonged to her. Chen Meng’er remembered clearly that in her previous life, Murong Qi had relied on the Qu family to strut around outside. And in her previous life, she had been mocked and ridiculed by her many times.

Thinking of the words that Murong Qi had said to her in her previous life, Chen Meng’er revealed an ice-cold smile towards Murong Qi.

Murong Qi, who had originally wanted to give Chen Meng’er a show of force, was instead taken aback by by Chen Meng’er’s ice-cold smile, causing her heart to turn cold. Chen Meng’er very quickly withdrew her gaze, and Murong Qi returned to normal. However, Murong Qi did not take this small interaction to heart. She felt that it was just an illusion. How could she feel a chill in her heart because of Chen Meng’er, who appeared out of nowhere?

She was the eldest daughter of the Murong family and had the backing of the Qu family. Who would dare to offend her so easily?

Murong Qi had always been very unhappy with Chen Meng’er. Although the Qu family usually treated her well because of her aunt and uncle, it was only so-so. The two elders from the Qu family usually only greeted her when they saw her. And yet they smiled so kindly at Chen Meng’er.

She was unwilling to accept this. She was thinking about how she usually listened to her parents’ words and spent a lot of effort to curry favor with the elders from the Qu family only to have her efforts wasted.

And now, this Chen Meng’er didn’t do anything and got what she had always dreamed of, but couldn’t get. How could she feel comfortable in her heart?

It wasn’t just that. There was also Yuwen Jing, who she had been deeply attracted to from the first time she saw him. She had never seen a man look so handsome and so n.o.ble. When she saw Yuwen Jing get out of the car and slowly walk into the banquet hall, she had an illusion that her Prince Charming had appeared and was slowly walking towards her.

However, after Yuwen Jing came in and swept his gaze around, he did not even look at her. It should be said that he did not even notice her presence, which made her very disappointed.

Murong Qi really wanted to go up and directly greet Yuwen Jing. However, if she really did that in such an occasion, she would definitely be taught a lesson by her grandmother when she went back. Therefore, she had been holding back the impulse to go up and greet Yuwen Jing. Her gaze would occasionally fall on Yuwen Jing, paying attention to his every move.

When she saw Yuwen Jing, who she had fallen in love with at first sight, look at Chen Meng’er so lovingly, Murong Qi was jealous. At that moment, she wished she could go up and rip Chen Meng’er’s face off.

Murong Qi calmed herself down and adjusted the expression on her face. She said to the young ladies of the aristocratic families beside her, “You guys stay here and play. I’ll go to Grandpa Qu and Grandma Qu’s place to see if there’s any important guests.”

“Right, right. Qiqi, go take a look. Who is that? What’s her ident.i.ty?” Yuanyuan, who thought she had a good relations.h.i.+p with Murong Qi, called Murong Qi by her nickname.

Yuanyuan’s words were met with a glare from the other young ladies of the aristocratic families. Yuanyuan was really stupid. Murong Qi treated her like a little follower and ordered her around. Murong Qi did not have the time to pay attention to Yuanyuan at the moment. All she could think about was how to tear apart Chen Meng’er’s beautiful face and how to make Chen Meng’er lose everything.

However, Murong Qi did not realize what she was thinking in her heart, because when she lifted her skirt and slowly walked towards Chen Meng’er and the others, her grandmother, Matriarch Murong, was already one step ahead of her, with a walking stick, when she arrived at Chen Meng’er and the others’ large circle.

“It’s so lively here. I’m also here to join in the fun.” Matriarch Murong looked like an old lady who was joining in the fun.

However, when Madam Qu and Madam Yuwen heard Matriarch Murong’s voice, a trace of disgust flashed in their eyes. This gaze did not escape Chen Meng’er’s eyes. Chen Meng’er thought to herself. It seemed that this rumor was not credible. It seemed that the Murong family did not really please the Qu family.

Madam Qu and Madam Yuwen each held onto Chen Meng’er’s hand. No one was willing to pay any attention to Matriarch Murong. It was Murong Ying who broke the deadlock. “Mom, you’re here. I just saw my brother and the others over there. I’ll bring you over.” Murong Ying knew that her mother-in-law had a lot of opinions about her mother. She wanted to bring her mother away from here.

However, it was clear that her mother, Matriarch Murong, did not want to cooperate.
