Manipulative Harem God

Chapter 61 Tricking Leng Mei (2)

"What did you say again?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Zhang Wei's grin widened as he spoke, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "I said, 'Your daughter was never under my control. How can I free her?'"

Leng Mei felt a chill run down her spine as she fell silent, unable to comprehend the situation.

Her lips parted as she tried to speak, but no words came out. "Bu-"

"But what? If you want to know about the previous incident, look over there." Zhang Wei pointed towards the stairs, where Leng Yan was standing.

She looked conscious, but her eyes were filled with a bitter smile.

Leng Yan definitely knew how to act, having worked in law enforcement for so long had helped her in that regard.

"What is happening!?" Leng Mei whispered, her voice trembling.

Zhang Wei chuckled, his amusement evident in his tone. "It's quite simple. Your daughter planned all of this as an act to force you into becoming my slave. The purpose was simple: she knew if I approached you directly, you would resist or possibly run away. Now with you as your slave, you can't run even if you want to. As for Leng Yan, she was never under my control."

"Of course, although your daughter came up with the plan, and I was against it - is something I would like to say, but..." Zhang Wei paused, his eyes flickering towards Leng Mei. "... who would be against the idea of having a beautiful woman like you?" he said with a smirk.

Leng Mei felt her brain short-circuit, her mind struggling to process what had just happened. "I-It was an act?"

She couldn't help but ask, her voice filled with disbelief and confusion. "Why?"

Her words were directed towards Leng Yan, who looked down at the ground, unable to meet her mother's eyes.

Leng Yan strode down the hallway with a bitter smile etched on her face.

She arrived in front of her mother, and for a moment, her usually composed facade crumbled, revealing an expression of sadness and frustration.

However, with a single glare from Zhang Wei, she quickly regained her composure.

"It was, of course, for you Mei," Leng Yan said, her voice tinged with bitterness. "I think it's time you move on. You are not a normal person and still have a long life ahead. Forget about the past already... and if you can't, I would forcefully make Zhang Wei take you!"

Leng Mei's eyes shook heavily as she tried to process her daughter's words.

She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "You thought like this?" she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.

Her expression was bitter, as if she had been struck by a sudden realization.

Her eyes unconsciously darted at Zhang Wei, who stood there, looking at the scene with a gentle smile.

He seemed unfazed by the tension in the room, as if he knew that this conversation was long overdue.

"But he and you?" Leng Mei stammered, her mind racing with questions. She couldn't believe that her daughter was suggesting such a thing.

Zhang Wei let out a wry smile, pretending he was innocent in this one.

Leng Yan, however, spoke actively, her voice firm and resolute. "I don't care about it!" she said, her eyes blazing with determination.

"But I do!" Leng Mei retorted, her eyes fixated on Leng Yan.

She was stunned by her daughter's boldness and couldn't believe that she was suggesting such a thing.

Leng Yan had said this before, but Leng Mei always took it as a playful remark.

Whenever Leng Mei tried to set her up with a random guy, Leng Yan would fire back that Leng Mei should find a man for herself too.

However, this time, Leng Yan's words held a weight that Leng Mei had never noticed before.

As Leng Mei looked into her Leng Yan's eyes, she saw a determination that she had never seen before.

The seriousness in Leng Yan's gaze left Leng Mei speechless.

Was she really pushing her daughter into doing this?

Leng Mei couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

Her guilt only increased when she saw Zhang Wei again.

She couldn't help but wonder if Leng Yan had dragged him into this too.

Leng Mei's heart sank at the thought of it.

However, Zhang Wei's shrug and response caught Leng Mei off guard.

"Don't look at me like that. She might have suggested it, but I was in favor of her idea as well. How can I deny the idea of a mother-daughter pair?"

"Y-You- ... perverted man!" Leng Mei's face flushed red, and she couldn't believe his words.

How could he be so shameless as to declare it so boldly?

Leng Mei couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions as she processed everything that had just happened.

Leng Yan's heart was heavy as she watched the scene unfold before her.

Mixed emotions swirled inside her, like a storm brewing in her chest.

On one hand, she despised the idea of manipulating her own mother, but on the other hand, she couldn't bear the thought of losing Leng Mei.

Leng Yan knew that if she didn't do as Zhang Wei said, he would stop at nothing to kill Leng Mei.

Memories of Zhang Wei's past atrocities flooded her mind, causing bile to rise up in her throat. S

he had seen him take the life of an innocent child before, and she knew without a doubt that he was capable of doing the same to Leng Mei.

But the thing was, would Zhang Wei really would have killed Leng Mei if Leng Yan revolted?

The answer was defenitely know, but it wasn't something Leng Yan needed to be privy of.

Once again, Zhang Wei lied through his teeth, without even a shred of shame.

One couldn't help but marvel at his ability to deceive others so effortlessly.

Such skill was a hallmark of a true villain - someone who would stop at nothing to get what they wanted.

In contrast, those with good intentions found it nearly impossible to lie smoothly or even contemplate such heinous acts.

As Leng Yan struggled with her conscience, her mother remained oblivious to the danger that lurked beneath the surface.

Leng Mei couldn't quite put her finger on what was bothering her, but she knew deep down that something wasn't right.

She tried to piece together the events of the past few days, from Zhang Wei's late-night visits to the events of today.

Suddenly, everything clicked into place, like a jigsaw puzzle falling into perfect alignment.

Leng Mei realized that it was time to stop pestering her daughter and start paying attention to her own feelings.

She couldn't deny the attraction she felt towards Zhang Wei, but she also knew that it wouldn't be fair to her daughter to pursue a relationship with him.

Why share a man with her own flesh and blood?

Leng Mei vowed to explore other options, even as she struggled to ignore the pull she felt charismatic Zhang Wei.

Leng Mei pleaded with Zhang Wei to remove the seal, but he simply shook his head and refused.

She could see the wicked smile on his face and knew that he had ulterior motives.

It was clear to her that the man was greedy and wanted both her and her daughter.

Despite this, Leng Mei didn't feel like debating the issue any further. She had a sinking feeling in her gut that told her it was pointless to argue.

As she looked into Zhang Wei's eyes, she saw the desire burning within them, and she knew that he was not a saintly man.

But why did Zhang Wei expose his intentions so blatantly?

Because he wanted to appear like a normal man, interested in beauty, rather than a saintly figure.

If he had simply said that the seal could not be removed, she would have become suspicious.

So, it was better for him to play this game of manipulation.

In the end, Zhang Wei had successfully manipulated both mother and daughter into becoming his slaves.
