Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

"Yuqing Temple? What is she going there for?" Chu Mengmeng frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in her tone. Lin Wan'er put down the invitation and said softly, "Yuqing Temple holds an incense meeting on the first day of every month. Young ladies from various families go there to burn incense and pray for blessings and exchange feelings. Chu Yunyao asked you to go there in three days, obviously to show you a warning."

Chu Mengmeng sneered, "I thought it was a big deal, but it turns out she just wanted to humiliate me. I want to see what tricks she can come up with!" Su Mubai shook his folding fan and analyzed, "Chu Yunyao has always been scheming. I'm afraid she has no good intentions when she suddenly posted to you this time. Mengmeng, you better be careful."

"It doesn't matter. If an enemy comes, we will fight him. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth." Chu Mengmeng waved her hand indifferently, with a sly light in her eyes. She wanted to see what tricks Chu Yunyao was going to play.

Three days later, Yuqing Temple was very popular, and young ladies from various families dressed up and came in groups. Chu Mengmeng was wearing a light blue dress, which was pure and elegant, and she was particularly eye-catching in the crowd. As soon as she stepped into the gate of Yuqing Temple, she felt a sharp gaze falling on her.

Looking up, she saw Chu Yunyao, wearing a bright red skirt, a golden hairpin on her head, and delicate makeup, standing not far away with a sneer on her face. Beside her, there were several rich ladies in luxurious clothes, pointing and whispering at Chu Mengmeng.

"Oh, isn't this our famous eldest daughter of the Chu family? How come you have time to come to Yuqing Temple today?" Chu Yunyao walked over slowly, her tone full of sarcasm.

"I was wondering who was being sarcastic, it turned out to be Miss Chu." Chu Mengmeng fought back without showing any weakness, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "I came here to burn incense and pray for blessings today, how come I am bothering you, Miss Chu?"

“You…” Chu Yunyao’s face froze, and then she sneered, “Chu Mengmeng, don’t think you are so great just because you are the head of the Chu family. I tell you, you are just a cuckoo occupying the magpie’s nest!”

The surrounding young ladies were shocked when they heard this. Chu Mengmeng's face darkened, and she was about to open her mouth to refute, when a sarcastic voice suddenly came from the crowd: "That's right, I heard that this Miss Chu was an uneducated idiot before, and I don't know what means she used to snatch the position of the head of the family. It's really despicable!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Aunt Zhao, with a sneer on her face, slowly approaching, surrounded by a group of noble ladies. Aunt Zhao's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. The surrounding discussions became louder, and some people even began to point fingers at Chu Mengmeng. Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, looked at Aunt Zhao coldly, and said word by word: "Aunt Zhao, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! How I become the head of the family will be judged by the elders of the clan, and it is not your turn to comment!"

Aunt Zhao sneered and said sarcastically, "The elders? Who doesn't know that you have bribed those old guys? Chu Mengmeng, do you think you can hide what you did from everyone?"

"What did I do?" Chu Mengmeng raised her eyebrows, her tone calm, but with an unquestionable majesty. Aunt Zhao was intimidated by her momentum, her tone slightly stagnated, and then she stiffened her neck and said: "You...you sold the family business to outsiders at a low price, and embezzled public funds. Do you dare to say that you didn't do these things?"

Chu Mengmeng sneered in her heart. It turned out that Aunt Zhao had received benefits from others and deliberately came to throw dirty water on her. In order to improve the operating conditions of the family business, she had transferred some unprofitable industries at low prices and introduced new business concepts and management models. However, she did not expect to be used by Aunt Zhao and others to spread rumors behind her back and discredit her reputation.

"I have my own reasons for handling the family business. I don't need to explain it to you." Chu Mengmeng said calmly, her eyes sweeping over the whispering people around her, her tone gradually becoming sharper, "I know that some of you are dissatisfied with my decision, but what I want to say is that everything I do is for the good of the Chu family. If you really care about the Chu family, you should unite as one instead of listening to slander and making trouble here!"

There was a moment of silence in the crowd. Chu Mengmeng's words were so righteous that no one could refute them. At this moment, a clear voice came from outside the crowd: "Mengmeng is right. I guarantee with my personality that she will never do anything to harm the interests of the Chu family!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xiao Yichen and Su Mubai walking side by side, followed by several elegantly dressed young men. Xiao Yichen walked to Chu Mengmeng, looked at her firmly, and gave her a soothing look. Su Mubai waved his folding fan and said with a smile: "Aunt Zhao, your ability to gossip is really getting better and better. But next time when you make up a story, can you make it a little more reliable? At least, it should be convincing!"

Aunt Zhao was speechless by Su Mubai's sarcastic words, and her face turned pale. She wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Chu Yunyao beside her. Chu Yunyao had a decent smile on her face and said softly, "Sister Mengmeng, don't get me wrong. Auntie is doing this for your own good. I'm afraid that you will be blinded by your youth and make the wrong decision."

Chu Mengmeng looked at her coldly, sneering in her heart. Chu Yunyao pretended to be gentle and kind on the surface, but secretly colluded with Aunt Zhao. What a good pair of mother and daughter! "Don't bother me, sister, to worry about my affairs." Chu Mengmeng said lightly, with a hint of alienation in her tone.

Chu Yunyao's eyes flashed with resentment, but she quickly concealed it. She pretended to be wronged and said, "Sister Mengmeng, how can you say that? We are a family after all. If you have any problems, you can tell me. I will definitely do my best to help you."

Chu Mengmeng was too lazy to play along with her anymore, so she turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, Lin Wan'er hurried over, holding a stack of papers in her hand. She walked up to Chu Mengmeng with a serious look and whispered, "Mengmeng, I found out something, you'd better be mentally prepared."

Chu Mengmeng's heart trembled, and she vaguely felt that something was wrong. She took the paper handed over by Lin Wan'er and read it carefully. It clearly recorded how Aunt Zhao and Chu Yunyao had secretly bribed family members, spread rumors, and slandered her reputation over the years, and how they used various means to try to drive her out of the Chu family.

The more Chu Mengmeng looked, the uglier her face became. She had always known that Aunt Zhao and Chu Yunyao were dissatisfied with her, but she had never expected that they were so vicious and did so many shameful things behind her back! "Mengmeng, what are you going to do?" Lin Wan'er asked worriedly.

Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she said coldly: "Since they want to play, then I will play with them! I want to see who will win and lose in the end!" She was about to make the evidence in her hand public and expose the true face of Aunt Zhao and Chu Yunyao, but suddenly received a mysterious letter. The content of the letter shocked her. It turned out that she was not a biological child of the Chu family, but an abandoned orphan...
