Chapter 211 Shen Mei plays the role of a sisterly bond
Shen Wancheng and Shen Yao realized they were early shortly after arriving at the studio.
People gradually arrived at the audience seats. As the number of people increased, and since there are no smartphones to pass the time in this day and age, what could these audience members do? They talked and chatted, of course.
The noise was so loud it made my ears ring.
Shen Wancheng couldn't stand it for long after sitting down.
"Shall we go for a walk first?"
"Okay, it's stuffy in here with so many people."
Just as Shen Wancheng and Shen Yao got up, Shen Mei happened to arrive in front of them.
Shen Yao was taken aback when she saw Shen Mei.
He asked in a low voice, "Is there something you need?"
Shen Mei didn't respond to Shen Yao, but instead looked at Shen Wancheng and spoke.
I'd like to say a few words to you.
Shen Wancheng didn't respond immediately, but Shen Yao did.
"What face do you have? You want to talk to my sister for a few minutes, and she has to talk to you alone? Don't you have any self-awareness about whether you're trustworthy or not?"
Shen Mei frowned as she looked at Shen Yao and added,
"You can be there without me having to tell you separately."
"Ha, you're making it sound like it's my honor to hear what you want to say."
Shen Yao had always been reluctant to speak harshly to Shen Mei, perhaps out of consideration for their past relationship. However, after several encounters with Shen Mei, Shen Yao found her actions and words unbearable. She realized that clinging to old feelings for Shen Mei would only make her look foolish.
Therefore, Shen Yao no longer shows any mercy to Shen Mei, and her words have become sarcastic and unpleasant.
This was the first time Shen Yao had spoken to Shen Mei like this.
Shen Mei felt a tightness in her chest.
She always felt that the only one who looked down on her was Shen Wancheng, and that Shen Yao only sided with Shen Wancheng because they were sisters.
She didn't hold a grudge against Shen Yao at first; she thought Shen Yao remembered the good things she had done for her.
But she never expected that Shen Yao would treat her like this now.
Shen Mei bit her lip and remained silent, looking as if Shen Wancheng and the others were bullying her.
There were already quite a few people sitting around Shen Wancheng and her group. As they stood, they soon attracted the attention of others.
Shen Wancheng didn't want to become the subject of gossip. Her high-profile wedding had a purpose, and if this matter were to be exposed as gossip, it would just become a source of amusement for others.
"Then let's go outside and talk."
Shen Wancheng agreed.
Shen Mei breathed a sigh of relief.
She walked ahead, leading Shen Wancheng and the others out of the studio.
Shen Mei didn't plan to go far, as she had a competition soon, so she took Shen Wancheng and the others to the stairwell, which was nearby.
When Shen Meigang appeared in the studio, she gestured to Wang Qiang with her hand, pointing towards the stairwell. Wang Qiang nodded to her and then went upstairs from another direction, entering the stairwell from the top floor.
Shen Wancheng and the others entered the building, and Shen Yao asked Shen Mei impatiently.
"Is there anything you want to say?"
Shen Mei bit her lip and looked at Shen Yao with a hurt expression.
His first words were addressed to Shen Wancheng.
"Cousin, congratulations on your marriage."
Even Shen Wancheng, who had become indifferent to Shen Meixin, was stunned when she heard Shen Yao's words.
They've already reached this point, and Shen Mei's sudden remark is more reliable than her directly cursing Shen Wancheng.
Shen Yao couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"Shen Mei, just say what you want to say. Who are you putting on an act for? Isn't it too late to try and act like sisters now?"
"I wasn't acting; I was just offering a simple blessing. Are you all going to be so aggressive?"
Shen Wancheng's expression remained indifferent.
"Just say what you want to say, no need for formalities."
Shen Wancheng interpreted Shen Mei's "Happy Wedding" as Shen Mei being polite, thus giving Shen Mei a way out.
"I'm just a little hurt. We're still cousins, after all. It's one thing that you didn't invite me to your wedding, but you even promoted my rival. I really don't understand. Do you hate me that much that you have to promote Ye Ningshuang to disgust me?"
"I'm a straightforward person, and I don't want to keep these things to myself. I just want to get to the bottom of things and be true to myself."
Shen Yao was truly disgusted by Shen Mei's two sentences.
"Don't you have any idea why you weren't invited?"
"You idiot, you bitch, do you only feel comfortable when someone insults you to your face?"
Shen Mei's eyes instantly filled with tears.
He looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
"Who are you putting on an act for? You cry after just a few words. Why didn't you have this much pride when you were sleeping in someone else's bed?"
Shen Wancheng and Shen Yao had guessed that Shen Mei was being kept by someone else since they met her in the villa area that day, but they tacitly did not bring it up.
Later, Liang Muchao seemingly unintentionally told them who was keeping Shen Mei as a mistress, just so they would have some idea.
Therefore, Shen Yao and Shen Wancheng not only knew that Shen Mei's sugar daddy was Huo Guangda, but they also knew more about Huo Guangda than Shen Mei did.
Huo Guangda's wife had given birth to two daughters and could not have any more children, so he kept several mistresses outside the marriage and had two illegitimate daughters. He had no sons, so he became even more promiscuous.
Shen Yao was completely disappointed in Shen Mei because she knew that Shen Mei had willingly fallen into depravity by following such a rotten person.
People can use all their resources and conditions to pursue their future, but there should always be a bottom line.
Moreover, Shen Yao's thinking was inherently more conservative.
So now Shen Yao finds Shen Mei particularly disgusting, and she speaks even more bluntly.
Shen Mei never expected Shen Yao to say such things to her face, and tears streamed down her face in the blink of an eye.
Shen Mei sniffed, looking aggrieved.
"How could you say that to me? We're sisters by blood! Do you think you're any better off saying that to me? I'm ashamed..."
"Stop, stop, stop," Shen Yao interrupted Shen Mei directly, "We've had nothing to do with each other for a long time, don't try to take advantage of me, my only sister is my sister."
Shen Wancheng remained quite calm; she was just wondering why Shen Mei was suddenly saying these things.
Shen Mei's act of showing weakness this time, portraying deep sisterly affection, is quite different from her previous arrogant and unrealistic attitude.
So Shen Wancheng remained silent, intending to see how Shen Mei would continue her act.
Shen Mei's initial tears were indeed feigned, but later she was genuinely upset by Shen Yao's rebuke.
Tears streamed down her face, but she kept reminding herself that she was there to question Shen Wancheng, not Shen Yao. Arguing with Shen Yao wouldn't do much good; it was important to get Shen Wancheng to speak.
Ignoring what Shen Yao said, Shen Mei stared at Shen Wancheng and continued to question her.
"I just want to ask my cousin, why is it that you'd rather support that stranger Ye Ningshuang than me? Do you hate me that much and want to disgust me?"
"Yes, I did say we were cutting ties before, but that was because you opposed my entering the entertainment industry. If you had said earlier that you would support me like you supported Ye Ningshuang, I definitely wouldn't have broken with you."
Listen to what this is saying.
Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror before comparing yourself to Ye Ningshuang?
Shen Yao wanted to yell at Shen Mei again, but Shen Wancheng grabbed her arm.
