Chapter 182 -182: Si Jing is Forced into a Blind Date with a Meng Family Girl
“…Mm.” Liang Mengyun’s voice was faint; her heart ached as the hopes she had been clinging to were mercilessly shattered by Sang Shen today.
It turned out that Sang Shen had never loved her, it had all been her own fantasy.
If Sang Shen knew that she had planned to drug Sang Qiao that day, resorting to such despicable means, he would probably be even more disappointed in her.
Had she succeeded that day, she could have used the video to threaten Sang Shen, and then they could have been together.
But it was too late. She hadn’t succeeded, and the opportunity was gone. From the moment Sang Qiao refused to drink the wine she served, she knew that Sang Qiao was not easily fooled.

The table where Sang Qiao sat had been very quiet, mostly everyone attending to their own meals, until the Si Family arrived, causing Elder Mrs. Meng to rise to her feet with startling speed.
She even eagerly offered to give up her seat, “Mrs. Si, you brought only your two children today?”
“Yes, I happen to be free,” Mrs. Si responded indifferently, breezing past her toward Sang Qiao. However, two young girls were already seated to her left and right.
She then revealed a standard eight-toothed smile, “Young Miss, may I swap seats with you?”
“…Sure,” Meng Wangge swallowed the meat in her mouth, reluctantly standing up and moving to her mother’s side. Mrs. Si didn’t even have a seat to talk about swapping!
It was clear she was eyeing her spot, but considering Mrs. Si would be Sister Qiao’s mother-in-law in the future, she became much more willing to oblige.
Si Chenli, tall and commanding, walked over to sit beside Meng Jiahe, but she didn’t even say a word.
Overpowered by his strong presence, Meng Jiahe promptly stood up. She didn’t plan to be the third wheel between them, so she decisively moved several seats away.
“Qiaoqiao, I’ll abandon you for a bit. I don’t want to eat dog food.”
“Okay.” Sang Qiao chuckled, glancing at the man next to her with a touch of helplessness.
“Qiaoqiao, when I heard you were here today, I had the driver hurry over. Chenli also postponed several collaborations to come by. Qiaoqiao, what dishes are good at this table?”

Mrs. Si began unpacking a new set of chopsticks and bowls, while not forgetting to put in a good word for her son.
Sang Qiao could not help but laugh; postponed several collaborations indeed seemed very convenient.
She picked up some minced pork with tofu using the serving chopsticks, “Auntie, this is delicious, try it.”
“Alright, then I’ll eat more of this.”
Watching their interaction, Elder Mrs. Meng couldn’t help feeling envious. A mother-in-law getting along so well with her future daughter-in-law, and without any airs, Mrs. Si was the first.
Although Mr. Si was silent, his eyes were tender enough to overflow with warmth.
Sang Qiao truly had good luck!
While Elder Mrs. Meng felt a sourness in her heart, she also noticed the Si Family member who had arrived unnoticed.
He looked younger than Mr. Si; could he be the Si Family’s second young master?
Elder Mrs. Meng locked her eyes on him with a beaming inquiry: “Is this the Si Family’s second young master? I wonder if he is betrothed yet?”
Si Jing, who was focusing on his food, shivered, sensing a bad premonition.
“Not yet. I’ve heard your Meng Family has two daughters; would you be interested in getting to know my underachieving youngest son?”
Mrs. Si quickly took up the conversation, her gaze inadvertently resting on Meng Jiahe’s figure—she had heard of the young girl’s good relationship with Qiaoqiao, and she was also attractive, appearing gentle and quiet.
Naturally, there was no need to doubt her character, for one is colored by the company one keeps.
“Of course, of course, this is my granddaughter Meng Wange, she has a very auspicious look, and she’s an artist at Rose Entertainment. She has shot many TV series recently, none of which have aired yet. Right now she’s not very famous, but I believe it’s just a matter of time.”
Elder Mrs. Meng was incredibly excited, clutching Meng Wange’s hand, ceaselessly promoting her to Mrs. Si.
Meng Wange, under the scrutiny of an entire table of people, braced herself, “My grandma is exaggerating, it’s not like that at all.”
“Hmm, not bad, she does look very blessed. And isn’t this one also your granddaughter?”
Mrs. Si chuckled, nodding her head as she turned to point at Meng Jiahe, finding her even more to her liking, but the ultimate decision lay in the hands of her second son.
Elder Mrs. Meng introduced her perfunctorily, “Yes, her name is Meng Jiahe, she also works at Rose Entertainment.”
She wasn’t foolish; between her own granddaughter and an outsider, of course, she had to think about her own.
Si Jing, by merit of simply being a Si Family member, was better than any other wealthy heir out there!
“Si Jing, why don’t you introduce yourself? If you find each other interesting, you can get to know each other privately, maybe add each other on WeChat.” Mrs. Si glanced over at her second son who was busily eating.
Si Jing: “…!”
“Cough, I think finding a girlfriend shouldn’t be rushed. Let things take their natural course. I haven’t even established myself yet, so I’m sure the two Miss Mengs wouldn’t take any interest in me.”
“How could that be? My Wange likes your type the most.” Elder Mrs. Meng spoke with affection.
“Grandma, don’t talk nonsense.” Meng Wange’s face turned red with embarrassment, extremely awkward.
They didn’t even know each other, what did she mean by liking his type? What type, the kind that keeps his head down and eats? She certainly wasn’t fond of gluttons, either!
“Just add each other on WeChat, it’s convenient for future contact.” Elder Mrs. Meng continued, acting like an anxious matchmaker, completely ignoring her granddaughter’s embarrassment.
If she didn’t seize the opportunity, what if Meng Jiahe snatched such a good man away from her?
“No…” Sure. Si Jing wanted to resist a bit more.
Mrs. Si also chimed in: “Well, just add her and see how it goes. If it turns out to be unsuitable, you can still be friends.”
“Add my Wange; between the two it’s clear to me who is more suitable. Jiahe, well…” Elder Mrs. Meng intentionally didn’t finish her sentence.
The aim was to let the Si Family’s imagination do the work, since naturally, no parent would want their child to be involved with someone problematic—they knew this very well.
“It doesn’t matter. Just add her as well.” Si Jing wasn’t a fool; he could hear the underlying criticism Elder Mrs. Meng had for Meng Jiahe.
After all, she was the best friend of his future sister-in-law, and he naturally wanted to lend a hand.
Adding her on WeChat was no big deal.
“No need, I’m not interested in you, you should add my sister instead.” Meng Jiahe stated bluntly.
She herself wasn’t interested in Si Jing, and Elder Mrs. Meng’s extraordinary efforts to make the Si Family see less favorably towards her was truly inventive.
“Exactly, exactly, add Wange. Jiahe already has someone in her heart,” said Elder Mrs. Meng, her smile growing even wider.
“Grandma, I also…” Meng Wange wanted to say she wasn’t interested either, but before she could finish, she was cut off by Elder Mrs. Meng with a glare and a prompt: “Just add him quickly, no more talking.”
And so, two people being pressured by their respective parents added each other on WeChat.
“Jiahe, why don’t you and your sister switch seats, so they can get to know each other better.”
Elder Mrs. Meng saw that Meng Jiahe was sitting next to Si Jing and spoke up to her.
