The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot-Chapter 202 - 202 Good Words Cant Persuade a Determined
Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Good Words Can’t Persuade a Determined Ghost Chapter 202 -202: Good Words Can’t Persuade a Determined Ghost Zhong Niangyao cast a glance at Zhong Mingyu, who spoke with righteous indignation, a hint of irony flashing in her eyes.
Her Second Uncle clearly knew about Zhong Mengxuan’s situation and even approved of it. She really didn’t know whether to say he loved his daughter or not.
However, Zhong Mengxuan’s actions were enough to show that her nature wasn’t much better.
Hearing Zhong Mingyu’s obviously exculpatory words, Old Sir Zhong’s anger intensified, “You fool, do you even know what you’re saying? She’s your daughter, and not only do you not dissuade her, but you also speak such words. Do you even realize what Zhong Mengxuan is actually doing?”
Zhong Mingyu bowed his head, no longer daring to retort.
“So Zhong Mengxuan, are you planning to go down this dark path now?” Old Sir knew it was useless to talk to Zhong Mingyu, he turned directly to Zhong Mengxuan, “Have you thought about your future?”
“Grandfather, I am very clear about what I want,” Zhong Mengxuan’s eyes shimmered with ambition, “I don’t know what the future holds, but I love Chenran right now, and even if it means being an unnamed lover at his side, I am willing. Moreover, who can be certain about the future!”
Although Lu Chenran was now marrying Long Jiarui, whether their marriage could last a lifetime was uncertain! Staying by Lu Chenran’s side now as an unnamed lover was indeed very humiliating.
However, Lu Chenran was the direct descendant of the Lu Family heir. The Lu Family, a lineage of long-standing, naturally had its strict rules. Lu Chenran’s status destined him for a great opportunity to inherit the Lu Family leadership.
By then, if Lu Chenran became the head of the Lu Family, being the lover of the head of the Lu Family would be a much better status than marrying someone of an equal social standing.
Moreover, although Eldest Mrs. Lu made her terminate the pregnancy, she did not restrict her from having Lu Chenran’s children. As long as there were children in the future, she would have a chance to establish herself in the Lu Family.
So no matter what, she would not leave Lu Chenran.
“You are simply foolish to the extreme,” Old Madam Zhong was extremely angry, “No matter how righteously you put it, staying by Lu Chenran’s side makes you just a lover. Do you know how many contemptuous eyes you will have to face? And your future children will also be illegitimate. Is this what you want to see?”
“Grandfather, Grandmother, whatever you say is useless now,” Zhong Mengxuan’s attitude was very firm, “I am no longer a child. I have grown up, I have my own choices. You just need to respect me, and there’s no need for further words.”

Seeing Zhong Mengxuan’s impervious attitude and Zhong Mingyu’s intention to remain uninvolved, both Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong were filled with anger.
Yet, they also knew that even if they wanted to intervene in this matter, they couldn’t. They couldn’t really drive Zhong Mengxuan out, could they?
Moreover, if they really drove her out, such news reaching the Lu Family could make them feel spurned. What losses it could bring to their family was also uncertain.
Old Sir looked at Zhong Niangyao with disappointment, pondered for a while, and then asked, “Yaoyao, what do you think about this?”
“Grandfather!” Zhong Mengxuan exclaimed in shock, “What does this have to do with Zhong Niangyao? Why are you asking her?”
Old Sir paid no heed to Zhong Mengxuan, his gaze still firmly on Zhong Niangyao, insistent on receiving her opinion.
Zhong Niangyao was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head, “Grandfather, everyone has their own choices. Zhong Mengxuan is an adult now, you can advise her, but you cannot make decisions for her.”
“Everyone can only walk their own life path; others can’t walk it for them.”
Although it was unexpected, since Old Sir asked her to sit down, she knew, however unwilling she was, she was destined to get involved.
But after all, she was already entangled in this matter from the beginning.
The reason Old Sir wanted her opinion wasn’t actually to hear her thoughts, but rather to find someone to persuade himself.
Old Sir knew her capabilities, so he wanted to use her to convince himself.
Old Sir glanced at Zhong Mingyu and Zhong Mengxuan with disappointment, then sighed and shook his head, “It seems your minds are made up, and nothing I say will change your decisions. If so, then you are on your own!”
His gaze then landed on Zhong Mengxuan, with an inscrutable glint, “Whether it’s in the past or today, I’ve said what I should say, and I’ve given my advice. Since it’s the path you’ve chosen, you alone must bear the consequences in the future. Even if it means kneeling, you must walk this path to the end.”
Zhong Mengxuan did not know why Old Sir suddenly changed his mind, but with Old Sir conceding, she still breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, she really didn’t know what to do.
Even though she was resolute, deep down, she still harbored a bit of worry, afraid that Old Sir might actually, as he had said before, drive her out of the house.
Zhong Mingyu also felt a great relief.
“Old man—” Old Madam Zhong seemed to want to say something more, but had only just begun when Old Sir cut her off.
“Old woman, let it be,” Old Sir extended his hand, grasped Old Madam Zhong’s hand, and then gently shook his head, “Some things cannot be changed by just our few words of persuasion. Good words do not persuade the dying ghost; some people only learn their lesson after stumbling.”
Old Madam Zhong also understood her husband’s intention, opened her mouth, but in the end, a sigh summed up millions of words.
“Mengxuan, since you’re so insistent, then we won’t interfere,” Old Madam Zhong looked at Zhong Mengxuan, her eyes hosting an inextinguishable worry, “However, no matter what, you’ve just had an abortion, and the most important thing is to first take care of your health.
