Chapter 118: Transformed into an Unfilial Son (2)
Chapter 118: Transformed into an Unfilial Son (2)
Unlike the original plot, he only spoke for Zhao Xinxin at that time, and felt that the original body's hesitation showed that he did not take their parents seriously at all.
But Ning Ning pointed out the strangeness of Meng Hongyu's life experience in public, which was something Ning Yao was completely unwilling to think about, so he actually refused first.
"How can that be? I've already told him! This was my cousin's last wish. I agreed to it before he died. The child has already changed his mind and calls me mom. How can I go back on my word?"
The difference between just giving some money and bringing it in is too big, so Zhao Xinxin certainly doesn't agree.
Unexpectedly, Ning Ning stepped forward and said, "Well, since you have already promised him, it would be bad to break your promise. Then let him in."
"Ah? That's great!"
"A Ning, do you really want to bring him in?"
Unlike Zhao Xinxin's surprise, Ning Yao frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
Ning Ning smiled and pulled someone over. "Since you are here to keep me company, I think we can bring one more person. Let's bring cousin Wei over as well. My uncle unfortunately passed away last month, and before he died he asked dad to take care of cousin. So, cousin Wei, if you are willing, you can move in."
The original family was a big family, and many people came today, including Ning Wei.
Ning Wei is half a year older than the original body and is his distant cousin.
In the original plot, Ning Wei was also a victim.
After the original body died, Zhao Xinxin and Ning Yao had huge fortunes in their hands and suddenly became arrogant.
Ning Yao was fine, but Zhao Xinxin felt that she had suffered a lot from the Ning family before. Everyone in the Ning family disliked her dishonorable background and treated her coldly.
Now that she has endured years of hardship and finally made it, she wants to teach the Ning family a lesson.
Therefore, she tried every means to deal with the people of the Ning family, and would never step on them just once if she could.
As for Ning Yao, this fool, as long as it doesn't affect him, he is happy to ignore it and just "dote on his wife".
Ning Wei was deeply affected by this. He liked acting and had quite some talent, and he really wanted to enter the entertainment industry.
When Zhao Xinxin saw this, she realized that this was just a move that would lead her into her hands!
So, she said to Ning Wei, "The entertainment industry is a shady place. You don't know the seriousness of the situation. Be careful not to be fooled. You should go to the company I introduced to you. They will definitely take good care of you for my sake."
In fact, she colluded with the agency to set a trap for Ning Wei, making the contract Ning Wei signed have a big loophole, which was almost like a contract of selling one's body.
Ning Wei must fully obey the requirements of the agency, otherwise he will have to pay a sky-high penalty for breach of contract.
The Ning family is large, but not all of them are wealthy.
People like Ning Wei, who come from a middle-class family, cannot afford the penalty for breach of contract.
He came to Zhao Xinxin to plead for mercy, but Zhao Xinxin said, "I haven't been in the entertainment industry for many years. I didn't expect people's hearts to be so fickle. They even lied to me. Oh, there's nothing I can do."
That's how he was dismissed.
Ning Wei had no choice but to accept as many roles as the company required, and 90% of his salary was taken by the company.
Finally, the company gave him a role in a drama with extremely bad working conditions. Ning Wei fell ill during filming, but did not receive good care and died suddenly.
When the news came, Ning Yao comforted Zhao Xinxin instead, "You are also kind-hearted in introducing him to an opportunity. This is the child's fate. Don't feel burdened. If anyone dares to gossip about it, I will slap him in the face!"
So, Ning Ning directly pulled Ning Wei over and winked at him.
Ning Wei didn't quite understand why he was dragged in while he was just watching the show.
But he was smart by nature and immediately took over the role, "Of course I agree, An Ning, you will be my real brother from now on. Uncle and aunt, I will treat you as my real parents! Hongyu, right? From now on, we will be a family!"
Meng Hongyu was a little confused. They agreed to only recognize him, so where did this person come from?
"Mom, he is——"
Meng Hongyu looked at Zhao Xinxin in confusion, but before Zhao Xinxin could say anything, Ning Wei's act had already begun.
His eyes were filled with tears and his face was full of grievance. "Why didn't Brother Hongyu recognize me? Don't you want me to enter this family? Brother Hongyu, don't worry, I'm here to join you, not to separate you! Isn't it good to have an extra filial cousin like me? Uncle, isn't it the Ning family that I want to enter? Why can't people from our Ning family enter, but people from other families can?"
Now, not only does he look pitiful, but the air is filled with the aroma of tea. Ning Yao couldn't help but stand on his side after hearing it.
Originally, Ning Yao didn't care about the life and death of the Ning family, but he couldn't say this publicly, and he didn't like Meng Hongyu very much, so he was happy to see Ning Wei confront him.
"Who said you can't come in? Your father asked me to take care of you when he was dying. It's my duty to take you in and take care of you. No one has the right to say anything! Xinxin, don't be willful. You can't be the only one allowed to adopt a child and not take in our Ning family's child!"
"I, I didn't say no. Anyway, Awei is a pitiful child, so let them move in. I will take good care of them."
When she said the word "take care of", she added emphasis, as if she was chewing Ning Ning and Ning Wei's flesh.
It wouldn’t be right for this banquet to end in such a bad mood. At least Ning Ning and Ning Wei were still quite happy.
It was rare for Ning Yao to have a stern face towards Zhao Xinxin. After the banquet, the two of them had a big fight behind closed doors.
It is different from the original plot. In the original plot, Ning Yao did not doubt Meng Hongyu's background at first. When he came to his senses later, he was pulled back into the house by Zhao Xinxin for "compensation" and tried every means to get away with it.
Later on, he felt that Meng Hongyu was more filial and obedient than his original self, and it was not bad to keep him around, so he simply stopped pursuing the matter.
But it was different now. This fig leaf was lifted by Ning Ning in public. He couldn't help but suspect that he had become a laughing stock in everyone's eyes. He lost his temper at Zhao Xinxin, and no matter how much Zhao Xinxin acted like a spoiled child, she couldn't save the situation.
Zhao Xinxin was so angry that she said, "Why don't you just kick Xiaoyu out? Humph, Ning Ning has already agreed to take him in, but you just turned around and kicked him out. This will only make people more suspicious, and you will be even more embarrassed! Okay, just go and kick him out, so you don't have to be suspicious all day long!"
"Shut up! I'll kick you out too!"
"Oh, I think you have become more capable..."
The two were arguing heatedly when suddenly there was a commotion outside. Ning Yao was already filled with anger and immediately shouted, "What's going on outside?"
"Uh, come and have a look, Master Yu and Master Wei are quarreling over the room!"
"what?"
Zhao Xinxin hurriedly left Ning Yao behind and rushed out first.
Ning Yao was not willing to be left behind, and sure enough, he saw Ning Ning, Ning Wei and Meng Hongyu in the corridor.
They were holding things in front of a room, neither of them giving way.
Seeing Zhao Xinxin and Ning Yao coming over, Ning Ning asked, "I thought this bedroom was nice, so I asked Ning Wei to move in, but Meng Hongyu said that you had already agreed to give him this room, how come I didn't know?"
