Chapter 173 The rich mother-in-law makes Meng Lu have a son (Meng Lu chooses to remain childless in
Meng Lu started as a low-level employee at the company, then got promoted to department manager, where she faced disdain from people in different parts of the company.
Especially Li Wanting, the second sister-in-law of Meng Lu, thought Meng Lu was both beautiful and talented. At least that's what she thought of Meng Lu in her heart, but she said the opposite in front of Meng Lu and others.
"What good looks does Meng Lu have? She just has a pair of big almond-shaped eyes that can seduce men."
"Manager Li, I have a question for you, but I'm not sure if I should ask it or not," the female employee said.
Li Wanting nodded.
"My husband keeps urging me to have children, but I don't want to. There are many couples who choose to be childless these days. I don't know if my thinking is right?"
Does your man agree?
"agree."
"Oh, right, that reminds me of your question. Is that woman planning to be childless? My boyfriend Cheng Qiang and I have decided not to have children. Meng Lu doesn't want any either. The two sons of the Cheng family don't want children, and they'll wait until the third son gets married before deciding not to have any more. Who knows who will end up with the Cheng family's assets in the future?"
"Is Manager Meng also childless like us?"
"I don't know what's wrong with her? Maybe her ideas are different from ours. Maybe she wants to have children but can't? She can't have children, she's not a real woman. She's been married to my brother-in-law for almost a year, and she still hasn't gotten pregnant?"
"Haha!" The other staff members burst into laughter!
Then their voices were accidentally overheard by the chairman's father-in-law, Cheng Yaojin.
Then, when he got home, he discussed with his mother-in-law, the lady of the house, and urged his eldest son, Cheng Yu, and his wife, Meng Lu, to have a child as soon as possible.
Cheng Yaojin and his wife found Cheng Yu and Meng Lu. The mother-in-law held Meng Lu's hand and said, "Lulu, you've been married for a while now, it's time to have a child."
Meng Lu looked surprised and was about to explain when Cheng Yu interrupted her. Cheng Yu put his arm around Meng Lu and said, "Mom and Dad, we have our own plans. Our careers are on the rise right now, so we haven't thought about having children yet."
Cheng Yaojin's face darkened: "No, our Cheng family must continue its lineage."
Feeling wronged, Meng Lu couldn't help but cry after returning to her room. Cheng Yu comforted her, "Don't be sad. I know you've suffered a lot. We don't need to care what they think." But Meng Lu understood that if this matter wasn't handled properly, it would affect family harmony and her image at the company.
The next day, Meng Lu carefully prepared a plan for her parents-in-law, which detailed her current plans at the company, how she would balance family and career in the next few years, and promised to have a child once the time was right.
At least that's what Meng Lu said, but that's not what she really thought. Because she only had one task in mind: to complete the "Spatial Laws" from her previous life.
In her past life, she had two daughters, one older and one younger, and she longed for the joys of family life. However, she was burdened by the system's obligations to her. As for everything else, they were all trivial matters!
After reading it, the in-laws' attitude softened. Li Wanting, who had initially hoped to see the situation resolved, was instead annoyed that Meng Lu had defused the crisis.
For now, this is how she spoke to her wealthy in-laws. Her father-in-law was an easy-going man, but her wealthy mother-in-law was difficult to deal with, and it was up to Cheng Yu, the man, to persuade her.
Then, the next night, as the two lay on the upholstered double bed in the bedroom of the luxurious seaside villa, Cheng Yu comforted Meng Lu by saying that his wealthy real estate father had temporarily agreed to postpone having a grandson.
However, Meng Lu is only allowed to conceive a child of the Cheng family within six months. Otherwise, she will be forcibly fired from the company!
Meng Lu was so frightened she almost died!
Meng Lu gritted her teeth and secretly resolved to complete the "Spatial Laws" task as soon as possible, and not allow herself to fall into a passive position.
In the days that followed, she worked hard while secretly searching for clues about the "Spatial Laws" mission.
One day, Meng Lu accidentally discovered an old book in the company's old archives, which vaguely revealed some information related to the "Laws of Space".
Just as she was studying it carefully, Li Wanting suddenly barged in. "Hey, Meng Lu, what are you doing here? This isn't a place for you," Li Wanting said sarcastically.
Meng Lu ignored her and hid the book behind her back. Li Wanting became suspicious and stepped forward to snatch it. In the struggle, the book accidentally fell and opened, revealing a strange light.
After the light disappeared, Meng Lu found that her surroundings had changed, as if she had entered a mysterious space.
She forgot her surprise and realized that this might be the key to unlocking the "Spatial Laws" mission.
Li Wanting, on the other hand, sat slumped to the side, her face filled with terror.
Meng Lu took a deep breath and decided to explore this space alone, heading towards the unknown.
A few days later, she learned that the clue to her mission of the laws of time and space was that she had to be ruthless and indifferent to family and friends, at least in the time after she transmigrated, and even in her previous life, she had to be a cold-blooded person who did not take herself seriously. When you are cold-blooded enough, you will be one step closer to success.
Standing in the mysterious space, Meng Lu felt a mix of emotions. She knew all too well how difficult it would be to be completely ruthless, but in order to complete the mission, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and move forward.
Meng Lu began adjusting her mindset according to the task prompts. At the company, she no longer silently endured the colleagues who had mocked her before, but instead responded coldly. When her in-laws brought up the matter of the child again, she directly stated her position without holding back. Cheng Yu was surprised, but respected her choice.
As Meng Lu grew increasingly cold and ruthless, her progress in the mysterious space became smoother and smoother. Meanwhile, Li Wanting, ever since that experience, had become neurotic, telling everyone that Meng Lu was a monster. However, Meng Lu didn't care about others' opinions and focused solely on her mission.
Finally, Meng Lu achieved the cold-blooded state required by the mission. A brilliant light erupted from the mysterious space, and a powerful force surged into her body. She had successfully mastered the "Laws of Space."
At this moment, Meng Lu seems to have been reborn. She steps out of her comfort zone with a completely new attitude, ready to embrace new life challenges. Whether in the workplace or in family relationships, she is confident that she can reshape them with her own abilities.
Meng Lu began to focus on her work as a junior manager in the real estate department of her small office.
She had never felt so clear-headed and dedicated to her work, whether in her past life or after her rebirth.
This kind of dedication is something she should cherish. Only by putting all her thoughts and ideas into her career and tasks can she complete the tasks given to her by the system "Spatial Laws" and achieve "Freedom"!
Then she began to do her job better and was promoted to the next senior department manager.
However, just as Meng Lu's project planning was making great progress, a young and beautiful rival suddenly appeared in front of her!
This young, beautiful, and talented rival is likely a deliberate obstacle placed in her career by someone.
