Chapter 179 Meng Lu reveals her true name, Yang Yumei, at her wealthy in-laws' house (the syste

Taking advantage of her current popularity with her wealthy in-laws, Meng Lu decided to reveal the truth: her original name was Yang Yumei. At worst, the rich mother-in-law would have her eldest son divorce her and send her back to her parents' home.

She had worried about those things before, but now she didn't care about anything. Meng Lu took a deep breath and mustered her courage to stand in front of the wealthy woman.

Before she could even speak, the wealthy woman smiled and said, "You're acting all mysterious today, is there something good you want to tell me?"

Meng Lu gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, my name isn't actually Meng Lu. My real name is Yang Yumei."

The wealthy woman's smile froze instantly, and her eyes sharpened. The surrounding air seemed to freeze.

But soon, the wealthy woman burst into laughter: "I thought it was something serious. A name is just a label. No matter what you were called before, you are now our daughter-in-law. As long as you treat my son well and live an honest life, that's all that matters."

Meng Lu was stunned; she hadn't expected the wealthy woman to be so open-minded.

The wealthy woman stepped forward and took Meng Lu's hand: "Child, what's past is past, let's look forward. But you must never hide anything from me again."

With tears welling up in her eyes, Meng Lu nodded vigorously.

From that moment on, she decided to wholeheartedly integrate into this family and live a good life.

Little did she know, how did she know that Yang Yumei was her name in her previous life? She was a time traveler; if she revealed everything, she'd be skinned alive and eaten.

The wife of the second brother-in-law was quite clever. She raised her lips and asked, "That's strange. Did you even change your ancestor's surname?"

Her question indeed reminded the wealthy family, and the mother-in-law suddenly realized, saying, "Second daughter-in-law, what you say is true. Eldest daughter-in-law, why did you even change your surname? Why did you change your name?"

The man, Cheng Yu, hurriedly defended Yang Yumei, saying, "She didn't change her surname. She told me long ago that her surname is Yang and her name is Yang Yumei. She was prettier when she was a child than she is now, so her parents named her Yang Yumei. When she was in school, she especially liked to show off her pretty face."

Now that Yu Mei has grown up, she wants to keep a low profile and no longer flaunt her beauty, so she changed her name to Yang Menglu, focusing all her energy on pursuing her dreams. Menglu's "Meng" doesn't mean "dream" like the surname Meng, so you've misunderstood that she changed her surname.

After hearing Cheng Yu's explanation, the wealthy woman nodded with some skepticism. The others, though still doubtful, didn't say anything more. Yang Yumei looked at Cheng Yu gratefully, her heart filled with warmth.

However, the younger brother's wife was not willing to give up and secretly investigated Yang Yumei.

One day, she excitedly brought a document to the wealthy woman's mother-in-law, saying, "Mom, look, this Yang Yumei isn't like what my brother said at all. She's deliberately hiding her identity." The wealthy woman's mother-in-law took the document and her face darkened.

Yang Yumei was summoned for a confrontation. Looking at the evidence, she felt a surge of panic. Just when everyone thought she had nothing to say, she suddenly remembered the jade pendant she had brought with her from her time travel.

She took out the jade pendant and told the story of the family's secrets behind it, and how the name change was due to some hidden secrets brought about by this secret.

The wealthy woman examined the jade pendant closely, sensing an ancient and mysterious aura emanating from it.

In the end, the wealthy woman chose to believe her again, saying, "In that case, let's leave it at that. I hope you will treat my son well in the future, as you have said."

Yang Yumei breathed a sigh of relief and secretly vowed to protect her family.

Mr. Cheng, the chairman of the board, sat on the sofa for a long time, reading magazines and newspapers without participating in any conversation.

The chairman doesn't focus on these trivial matters; what he focuses on is selecting talented individuals with business acumen to integrate into his real estate business and win battles against competitors.

Mr. Cheng recently discovered that his eldest son's wife is not only outstanding in appearance but also very intelligent. She is a promising talent in real estate or other business ventures!

Then, Grandpa Cheng just coughed twice and said, "You've all had a bit of a cough. It's getting late, so go back and rest. You have to go to work tomorrow." He left the living room and went back to his master bedroom to rest.

The other two younger brothers didn't join in the conversation. The mother-in-law and the second daughter-in-law exchanged glances, and then the wife saw the old man's back as he walked towards the bedroom. She waved her hand, and everyone went back to their own rooms.

At this moment, only Yang Yumei and Cheng Yu, who were the last to go to the bedroom, were left in the large living room. Cheng Yu held her hand as they went back to the bedroom to sleep.

She lay on the large bed, her face outward and her back to the man, Cheng Yu. She was lost in thought. Just now, in order to extricate herself from a difficult situation, she had told her mother-in-law and the others that she had a "jade pendant".

Yang Yumei didn't have any jade pendant. If she really had a jade pendant, she wouldn't have had to transmigrate here to struggle. Of course, jade pendants can be sold for money. She occasionally rose to prominence in her previous life, but later she fell into poverty again.

Then, she travels through time and receives the "Laws of Time and Space" from the system, allowing her to fulfill her dreams from her past life. The system then restores her "freedom"! Finally, she returns to her man and child from her past life.

Because she is an idealist, she was held back by family or other unimportant things in her past life. As a result, her exceptional intelligence was not properly utilized, and she suffered repeated defeats on the road to pursuing her ideals!

In order to complete the system's mission and gain a foothold in the wealthy Cheng family, she must strive to rise to the position of chairman of a real estate company. She must go through fire and water without hesitation, unlike in her previous life where she was good at everything but failed at everything.

The next morning, Yang Yumei woke up early and looked at Cheng Yu, who was still fast asleep. She was filled with fighting spirit.

From that day on, she became even more actively involved in the Cheng family's business affairs.

At a real estate project discussion meeting, she proposed a bold and innovative plan that combined current trends with environmental protection concepts, which impressed everyone present, including Mr. Cheng.

As time went on, Yang Yumei's abilities became increasingly apparent. She remained calm and composed at the business negotiation table, successfully securing several large projects and significantly expanding the Cheng family's business empire.

Seeing this, Li Wanting, the wife of the second brother-in-law, was extremely jealous, but she could no longer find an opportunity to smear her.

While busy with her work, Yang Yumei also made time to cultivate her relationship with Cheng Yu. The two supported each other, and Cheng Yu was deeply attracted by her wisdom and perseverance.

Finally, through her tireless efforts, Yang Yumei became an indispensable core figure in the Cheng Group.

She is getting closer and closer to her goal, and at the same time, she is truly integrating into this family.

As for the system mission, she knew that as long as she persevered along this path, she would eventually achieve it and regain her freedom to return to her family from her previous life.

In one dream, she dreamt that her past life's man, Chen Lixin, was holding her as she fell asleep, instead of the man beside her, Cheng Yu, holding her as she fell asleep.

Her beautiful dream was abruptly cut short. Her advisor, Xiaoyuer, in her "Time and Space Laws" system scolded her, "Master, you have made a mistake. I'm warning you this time. If you make the same mistake again, the system will take back your previous performance and demote you to the lowest level of Cheng's Real Estate, where you will start by cleaning."

"Ah! Xiaoyu, I don't understand, what mistake did I make? Please tell me!"

“Master, you cannot love two men at the same time. You can only be devoted to your first husband from your previous life, and the two daughters he left behind.”

"Ah! I was so infatuated with the man from my past life. In this life, the wealthy Cheng family wants me to carry on their family line and have a son, but I deliberately refuse. The Cheng family treats me like a son-making machine. I haven't done anything wrong at all. What I'm doing now is just to complete the system's tasks and to go home so that my original wife's family can live a good life."

"Master, you're talking back again. I just received orders from above that your system has now blocked your memories of your past life, as well as your current true love for Cheng Yu."

These superiors are doing this entirely to ensure you focus wholeheartedly on your career and ideals, so you don't repeat the mistake of being too distracted by men in your past life, which led to your career failure. Therefore, they've blocked any emotional connections in your mind. However, they also said that once you complete the mission, the system will automatically restore all your freedom!

After saying that, Xiaoyu flew away with a cold face!

"Ah! The condition for success in business is to be ruthless? To rise step by step, one must be indifferent to even one's own family? That's too cold-blooded."

Indeed, she no longer had any memory of men liking or loving her.
