Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Meng Si was locked in the attic, but Old Master Meng’s anger still hadn’t subsided. It was the middle of the night, and Old Master Meng was sitting alone in the living room. It looked very strange.
The butler came in from outside. He had followed Old Master Meng for many years and knew very well what he needed to do at this time.
“Sir, the arrangements have been made for Miss.” The butler’s tone was very calm. “Do you have any other orders?”
“Yes.” Old Master Meng leaned back on the sofa and asked, “What has Xiaoxiao been doing recently? Why haven’t I seen her for a long time?”

“Second Miss has been developing in the entertainment industry recently. It seems that her development is not bad.” the butler answered truthfully.
“Humph!” Old Master Meng was not very satisfied with this answer. “What’s the use of the entertainment industry developing well? They’re all a bunch of people who sell their faces and bodies. They won’t have much success.”
“Should we call Second Miss back?” The butler asked tentatively.
Old Master Meng pondered for a moment. He didn’t only have Meng Si as his granddaughter. Meng Si couldn’t do the marriage alliance, but he still had his second granddaughter. Moreover, his second granddaughter was prettier, so it would be more convenient for her to marry into another wealthy family.
“Call her back tomorrow morning. Don’t let her develop in the entertainment industry.” Old Master Meng said.
Meng Si had been very happy in the entertainment industry recently. She even met a very handsome boy band member called Li Ke. His stage name was Nick. He was a new celebrity in the entertainment industry and was very popular on the Internet. However, his popularity was also gained by throwing money. In order to increase his popularity, Meng Xiao had thrown a lot of money into it.
Touched by her, Nick took the initiative to pursue her. Meng Xiao did not even think about it and immediately agreed to his pursuit. Recently, Meng Xiao had been filming an online drama with this guy, Nick. She was the female lead, and Nick was the male lead.
Just as Meng Xiao was filming with her idol, she suddenly received a call from the housekeeper at home, telling her to be home the next morning.
“Why are you in such a hurry? I still have a scene to finish filming.” Meng Xiao said unhappily.
“This is Sir’s order,” the butler said. “I hope that you will obey. If you are not home tomorrow morning, you will bear all the consequences.”
“Alright, I understand,” Meng Xiao said irritably. “I promise I’ll be home tomorrow morning.”
She was most afraid that the Meng family would not give her money. Although she had come to the entertainment industry to make money, she did not have the talent to perform. Moreover, she had fallen in love with a small celebrity. Therefore, not only did she not make any money, but she had also spent a lot of money in the entertainment industry. Without the support of the Meng family, she might have to quit the entertainment industry tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Meng Xiao returned to the old mansion. She found the atmosphere in the old mansion a little strange, as if it was a little scary.
The butler was waiting for her at the door. “Second Miss, Sir is waiting for you in the study.”

“I haven’t had breakfast yet,” Meng Xiao complained with a frown.
The butler smiled and said, “Second Miss, don’t worry. The conversation won’t take up too much of your time. After you and Sir are done talking, you can eat.”
Meng Xiao had no choice but to go to the study to see her grandfather first. “Grandpa, why did you call me back?” Meng Si’s expression changed as soon as she entered the study. She was like a lively young girl, smiling brightly.
“What have you been doing recently?” he asked.
“Why didn’t you come back for so long?”
Meng Xiao replied, “I’ve been filming in the entertainment industry recently. I’m about to finish filming a movie that I’m the lead in. It’ll be released next month.” The reason why it was released so quickly was also Meng Xiao’s request. She wanted to share the stage with her male idol as soon as possible, and then let the audience edit their video to tell others that they were a couple.
“Don’t go to the entertainment industry to film anymore. Come back!” Old Master Meng said directly.
Meng Xiao did not understand. “Grandpa, I’m doing pretty well in the entertainment industry. Why did you ask me to come back?”
With Meng Si’s failure as an example, Old Master Meng felt that he couldn’t let Meng Xiao continue to be so unrestrained. He emphasized his tone, “I said you’re not allowed to go, so you’re not allowed to. Stop asking me so much questions!”
Meng Xiao was shocked.. She thought of her quiet home and asked, “Grandpa, did something happen at home?”
