Chapter 663: Pen Spirit, Product of Your Own Mistake
Auntie Qian was confused, but still shook her head honestly. “No; was it the wind? But the weather forecast didn’t say it would be windy today.” When Auntie Qian said that, Chen Meilin trembled even harder and pulled the curtain shut with a look of horror.
She was so worried and scared that she didn’t sleep at all that night.
The next morning, Chen Meilin couldn’t help but quickly call the contact the child had given her. As soon as the call went through, Chen Meilin was a little happy, but when she explained that she was the person on the plane, the other party immediately hung up mercilessly.
Chen Meilin was a little lost. She hadn’t offended the other party, so she called a few more times, but couldn’t get through. This made Chen Meilin, who had just seen a glimmer of hope, collapse a little.
She suddenly thought of something, stood up abruptly, and turned to look at Jiang Xue, who had been quiet since last night. Her face was filled with fear, she had two dark circles under her eyes early in the morning, and she was hesitant to speak.
When her aunt looked over, Jiang Xue was so scared that her face turned pale. Tears finally fell from her eyes and she threw herself at Chen Meilin’s feet guiltily. “Aunt, I didn’t mean it. I – I thought that kid was a swindler, so I gave him a fake number and a useless card.”
Jiang Xue knew that she couldn’t hide this matter from her aunt, who seemed gentle but was in fact shrewd. She could only fearfully tell her all the stupid things she had done.
When she woke up last night, her intestines had already turned green with regret. She didn’t expect there to really be ghosts in the world, but she didn’t dare tell her aunt. She tossed and turned all night, and only when this matter couldn’t be hidden anymore did she explain everything.
After learning about the stupid things Jiang Xue had done, Chen Meilin’s breath was stuck in her chest and she almost couldn’t hold herself up as she swayed.
Jiang Xue hurriedly supported her, but Chen Meilin coldly flung her hand away. Jiang Xue’s face stiffened. She thought about how her parents had wanted her to console her aunt and pull her to their side, but she had ruined everything now. Afraid that her aunt would kick her out, she hurriedly threw herself at Jiang Xue’s feet again and kept crying as she apologized guiltily.
“Aunt, I – I didn’t mean it, I really didn’t mean it.”
Chen Meilin was so angry that her face turned green and her body trembled. Looking at Jiang Xue, who threw herself at her feet again, she was filled with remorse and shame. Why didn’t she deal with it herself back then? She had always been gratified by how Jiang Xue was getting better at conducting herself in society. She didn’t expect this good niece to do such a stupid thing. Not only did she not leave any leeway, she also thoroughly offended the other party.
She almost couldn’t breathe when she thought of how the child must have handed that expired bank card to that Master. Before they could invite a genuine Master over, they had already offended the other party without even meeting them.
Chen Meilin took a deep breath and looked indifferently at the person kneeling at her feet. If it wasn’t for the fact that this person was her niece, whom she had always regarded as her second daughter, she really would have kicked her.
But she knew that it was useless to blame Jiang Xue now. The person had already been offended, and it was too late. Now, she could only go in person to apologize and save the situation.
Chen Meilin, who realized how serious the matter was, hurriedly searched for the child’s contact through the airline and immediately dialed the number.
As soon as the call went through, Chen Meilin was afraid that she would be directly hung up on again, so she hurriedly said, “Mr. Lin, excuse me for disturbing you. My name is Chen Meilin, and I have an urgent matter to discuss with Master Shuyan! Would you be able to give me a referral? If it’s possible, I would be endlessly grateful!”
