Scheming and Seduction in Quick Transmigration: The Heroine's Beloved is Mine

When Wen Qinglan rushed back, she saw Mu Menghan pulling Wen Zhining, begging her to join the group quickly.

Wen Zhining looked troubled.

Should I tell my sister I've created another group, or should I say she wants to join the new group too? Should I just add her in since she keeps begging me?

Just then, Wen Qinglan walked in.

"Are you just going to watch like this?" he asked Wen Qisheng.

Wen Qisheng was stunned. "Don't you think it looks good?"

Wen Zhining told him not to go and stop her, saying she wanted to see what Mu Menghan was up to.

Unexpectedly, I saw her pleading with Wen Zhining. Anyone would take a second look at that.

Anyway, it's alright as long as Ningning is okay.

Wen Qinglan raised her hand, turned her back to the servants, and gestured with two fingers to signal them to come and drag Mu Menghan away.

Mu Menghan was pulled aside by her aunt.

"I was so scared! My sister just grabbed my hand and it looked like she pinched it on purpose and it hurts a little." Wen Zhining looked down at her hand.

Wen Qisheng quickly stepped forward and indeed saw a red dot on Wen Zhining's hand.

Wen Qinglan's face turned completely cold, and she pressed the person directly in front of Wen Zhining.

"What are you doing? Why are you holding me down like this?" Mu Menghan panicked when she saw her aunt take out a whip and struggled desperately.

She still doesn't know what happened, but she has joined the group. She even asked Wen Zhining to rejoin. Wen Qisheng and Wen Qinglan are confused and suddenly become very angry.

"Ah—" Mu Menghan burst into tears the moment she felt the pain in her hand, and her sharp scream echoed in the living room.

The whip lashed Mu Menghan's hand with each "crack," and her cries of pain reached Wen Zhining's ears.

"Big brother!" Wen Zhining frantically pulled Wen Qinglan, "Quickly tell them to stop!"

"You'll move out, right?" Wen Qinglan looked down at Mu Menghan, her words carrying no question.

Mu Menghan's face turned pale. Her body could not support her but she was held down tightly. One of her hands was being squeezed and beaten, and she was trembling without feeling anything.

Upon hearing this, Mu Menghan stared at him blankly and nodded.

Wen Qinglan then told everyone to stop.

Mu Menghan fainted.

When she woke up, she had been taken to an unfamiliar room.

This was a temporary purchase by Wen Qinglan; the address was remote and very far from the Wen family home.

It has two bedrooms and a living room, roughly the same size as the toilet in the Wen family's house.

Wen Zhining also came to take a special look at her place. At this moment, she was sitting on the sofa, with her legs crossed and her arms around her chest, watching the person who had collapsed on the ground wake up.

"Are you awake, sister?" Wen Zhining said slowly.

"It's you!" Mu Menghan, now fully awake, quickly realized it was her. "It was you who did this, the soup last time, and this time too!"

She stretched out her hand, but it fell limply to her side.

"It's me, so what?" Wen Zhining bent down and looked at her calmly.

"My three older brothers all dote on me, and my eldest brother especially likes me. What can you do to compete with me?" She smiled, unrestrained and arrogant.

She was spoiled rotten.

"If I were the older sister, I wouldn't do anything malicious. I'd just stay here in the toilet and collect the living expenses my older brother transfers to me every month."

Wen Zhining looked around the room, then stood up with a look of disgust. "I'm going home now. Goodbye, sister. Take good care of your injury. The doctor said you can't do anything reckless, or you'll really be crippled."

Wen Qinglan waited outside. The door was open, and he kept a close eye on the movements inside, afraid that Mu Menghan would make a move against Wen Zhining. He didn't even read what they were saying on their lips.

Wen Zhining got into the car.

Mu Menghan walked to the door and called out to Wen Qinglan.

"I need to talk to you alone," she said hoarsely.

Wen Qinglan didn't intend to pay attention to her, but Wen Zhining was understanding and let him go.

"Why don't you chat with your sister for a while?"

Wen Qinglan then entered the house.

The door was still open.

"Brother, don't you think this is very unfair?" Mu Menghan questioned, "I'm clearly your sister too."

"You're not." Wen Qinglan said simply and directly, "Ningning is someone I've been with since she was little."

His voice carried a hint of indulgence towards Wen Zhining, "She's still young. Don't expect to compete with her when you come back; you won't win."

"You can't take what she doesn't want."

"I like you," Mu Menghan said through tears.

"I've always wanted to come back, to be with you, to run the Wen family with you. I just couldn't stand how much you spoiled her, that's why I targeted her. Can you understand me?" She sobbed, forcefully reaching out her injured hand to touch her.

Wen Qinglan stepped back, looking at her with disgust. "Are you crazy?"

"Big brother, why are you chatting for so long?" Wen Zhining got out of the car, bored, and walked over to ask.

She glanced at the crying Mu Menghan, then at the stunned Wen Qinglan, completely bewildered.

Did you do something to upset your sister, brother?

When Wen Qinglan saw Wen Zhining arrive, she quickly led her away.

"Why have you been chatting for so long?" Wen Zhining asked in the car.

Wen Qinglan pursed her lips, unsure whether she should speak.

I can't bring myself to lie to Wen Zhining.

"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't." Wen Zhining was very considerate, taking his hand and leaning on his shoulder.

"I just hope my older brother will always be by my side."

Wen Qinglan lowered his eyes and looked at her, his gaze unfathomable.

"Ningning, do you think I'm disgusting?"

"Why do you think that, big brother?" Wen Zhining asked in surprise. "Of course it's not disgusting. Big brother is so good, so good. He's handsome and kind to me. He's my favorite big brother."

Wen Qinglan tugged at her lips and smiled.

The dinner party that Madam Wen mentioned, everyone in the family except Mu Menghan attended.

The person attending the dinner was a good friend of Mrs. Wen, whose son had just returned to China. After Mrs. Wen found out, she arranged for the two families to have a meal together so they could get to know each other.

The other party's son was very polite, and Mrs. Wen liked him very much. She even tried to match him with Wen Zhining.

[I knew Mom wanted to introduce Ningning to a potential partner] Wen Chengyan received a real-time message from Wen Qisheng and said in the group.

Wen Zhining added him as a friend, and Wen Qinglan moved her lips but couldn't stop her.

To facilitate the conversation, Wen Zhining sat down next to him, leaving the seat next to Wen Qinglan empty.

He peeled the shrimp and placed them one by one on the plate. Wen Qinglan silently carried the plate over to her, passing between the two of them.

For some reason, the topic of elders came up with Wen Qinglan.

"Qinglan isn't young anymore, does he have a girlfriend?"

"Ningning is still young, I have to look after her," Wen Qinglan said.

"Does Ningning have to get married before you can find a girlfriend? Then Ningning, you'd better hurry up," the other woman said, covering her mouth and laughing.

Wen Zhining lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, "Brother, don't rush, and I'm not in a rush either."

Everyone was amused.

"You two should cover for each other."

"Ningning is so cute. Look at my cat, it keeps looking at Ningning."
