Chapter 145 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess
"Nan Xi, you should be able to feel it, your feelings towards your sister." Her feelings towards her sister? "You should know, that is not just normal sisterly affection." What else could abnormal sisterly affection be? Nan Xi hesitated for a moment. "Ormos, shut up. My feelings towards my sister have nothing to do with you," Nan Xi said coldly, but the quiver in her voice betrayed her inner turmoil. "Hehe... You are me, I am you. How can this not concern me?" Ormos chuckled. "You should face your feelings," Ormos insinuated. "Only those who accept everything can achieve great things." "I don't need your pep talk." Nan Xi decisively cut off her connection with Ormos. Then, she looked at the figure that had just entered the venue, feeling a surge of emotions within herself. Her feelings towards her sister? What exactly are they? "Welcome to the New York Industrial Fair." "Welcome, everyone, to the New York Industrial Exhibition. Today, we will be presenting projects that..." As soon as Nan Yin stepped into the venue, she was surrounded by a sea of white. It was unclear what the organizers were thinking, as the main theme of the venue was white, including the security checkpoint machines and the staff uniforms. It was fortunate that this wasn't in the Eastern country, or there would be another reason for an attack on this exhibition. However, despite her internal mocking, Nan Yin had to go in and take a look. She approached the staff and presented the pass given to her by Fubu Masashi. To her surprise, the staff's attitude changed immediately after scanning the pass. "Miss, please use the VIP channel. Welcome to the New York Industrial Exhibition." VIP channel? Fubu Masashi had procured a VIP pass? Nan Yin was astonished. After retrieving the card, she led the people towards the VIP room. On the way, she looked back at Fubu Masashi and couldn't help but ask, "How did you manage to get a VIP pass?" It's worth noting that the New York Industrial Exhibition is a world-class event, with giant companies from various countries participating. Only those big shots have the qualifications to enter the VIP lounge, so Fubu Masashi's surprise was quite a feat. "Miss, this was originally an invitation for a manager of the Morisaka Group, but as you know, such large groups usually receive multiple invitations, so it wasn't difficult to obtain this one," Fubu Masashi explained briefly. Nan Yin nodded to show she understood, then pushed open the door to her own VIP room. "Why?!!!" While Nan Yin was exploring the furnishings of the VIP room at the venue, in another part of the exhibition, in the VIP room of the Dragon Qian Group, a blond girl in a purple dress looked incredulously at the middle-aged man in front of her. The broken wine bottle on the floor indicated a very serious family conflict that had just erupted there. "Li Meng, I told you not to interfere in this matter. I and the members of the board will handle it," Li Yitian explained, rubbing his nose in distress. "Why? Why can't I intervene? This is a major event in my life. Do I no longer have the right to decide my own future?" Li Meng refused to back down. She, who was usually carefree, chose to face her father this time, leaving the others who had never seen the second Miss in this state at a loss for words. "You've already met that Su Xiaoyu, haven't you? Someone tell me, you two get along well. If that's the case, then what's the problem with me arranging an engagement for you?" Li Yitian looked at Li Meng helplessly. "Heh, do people have to be together just because they get along?" Li Meng sneered, directly mocking her father. "Then if you and Director Wang get along so well, why don't you just be together!" It was originally a joyful occasion to attend the industrial fair, but what Li Meng didn't expect was that as soon as she got off the plane, she received news from home. Her father, the chairman of the Dragon Qian Group, had arranged for her and that Su Xiaoyu to be engaged as a couple in the name of the group! This was something Li Meng couldn't accept, as her father, Li Yitian, had always been an open-minded father. Like her sister, Li Sha, she had found the person she liked before getting married. Li Meng couldn't understand why, when it came to her, it turned into an arranged marriage. "Meng! Why are you speaking to your father like that?" Before Li Yitian could react, another slightly older girl beside Li Meng went up and held her, constantly signaling to her with her eyes. "Alright, Meng, I know you may find it hard to accept, but Su Xiaoyu is a nice person and hasn't wronged you. Moreover..." Li Yitian hesitated to continue, but in the end chose to remain silent. He looked at his eldest daughter. "Sha, accompany Meng for a while. Until this engagement issue is sorted out, she should not go out. You understand?" This statement was akin to sentencing Li Meng to house arrest, and before the sisters could speak, Li Yitian left with several of his entourage, slamming the door loudly. The loud sound of the door slamming startled Li Sha, and when she regained her composure, she found her younger sister crying behind her. "Meng." Li Sha went over and embraced her younger sister, but at the moment, she couldn't find any comforting words to say. This time, her father's tough attitude surprised Li Sha. Due to the guilt she felt towards their mother, Li Yitian had always been very lenient towards the two sisters. Even with her own marriage, Li Yitian had initially wanted to arrange a marriage within the family, but because Li Sha didn't want it, he also didn't press it, until she found the person she liked. As for Li Meng, Li Yitian almost smothered her, giving her everything she wanted, even though he already knew that his younger daughter liked to play the guitar, Li Yitian chose to pretend not to know, and even occasionally found Li Meng's compositions to listen to. It could be said that he was a very tolerant father. However, today for some reason, Li Yitian had arbitrarily decided about Li Meng's marriage, a stark departure from the usual. Just a month ago, Li Yitian had assured Li Meng that even if she liked someone who wasn't human, he, Li Yitian, would accept that relationship. "Meng... Don't cry. I'll talk to Dad again later. Maybe this matter will be settled like this?" Li Sha could only offer a slight consolation to Li Meng, but she knew how feeble it was. "Besides... I feel that this Su Xiaoyu is quite good, isn't he?" Li Sha thought for a moment and decided to take a different approach to persuade her. "So why don't we get to know him first?" "Why should I get to know a friend?!" Li Meng raised her head at this moment, full of grievances. "The problem now is not whether Su Xiaoyu is good or not, it's that I already like someone else!" As soon as Li Meng said this, Li Sha was completely stunned. What's going on? Since when did her younger sister have a crush? How could this older sister not know about it? "Meng has someone she likes? Then why didn't you tell Dad just now?" As soon as Li Meng heard this, she felt even more aggrieved. What could she say? Could she tell her father that she liked a girl? Thinking about this, Li Meng felt even more aggrieved, and tears the size of beans instantly fell.
