Chapter 149: The Cheng Family's Secret

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Cheng Xingyang felt disgusted by Xing Shu, but at the same time, he was also very angry. Seeing that Xing Shu was ignoring him, his grievance and depression became even more turbulent. He would make Xing Shu regret it, and he would also make those men who touched her pay the price! He glared fiercely at Xing Shu's departing figure and punched the wall.

Xing Shu got into Cheng Lang's car and looked out of the window in frustration. Cheng Xingyang did not chase after her. He was probably throwing a hissy fit. She had said that she was on leave today, but Cheng Xingyang showed up at her place. She could only go to the office.

Just as the car was about to start, Cheng Xingyang came out. His face was dark as he looked around, probably still looking for Xing Shu. Then, he walked towards Cheng Lang's car and shouted through the window, “Young Uncle, I went back to the family home last night. Grandpa asked me to pass you a message.”

“What is it?” Cheng Lang lowered his head as he looked at the document and opened the window a crack.

Cheng Xingyang said, “Grandpa asked when do you plan to meet with the Jin family? Since both families are in agreement of a marriage alliance, we should meet for a meal. Grandpa called you, but he couldn't get through. Jian Yaochuan's phone is busy too. Grandpa knows that you're busy, so he asked me to help pass on the message.” As for why Cheng Xingyang returned to the family home, it was obviously because of the viral video. Fortunately, Jiang Yao —who had posted the viral video—had been grounded. He did not know how the situation was now. She was probably having cabin fever.

Cheng Xingyang's eyes were filled with mockery. “I hope Young Uncle won't plead for Jiang Yao this time. Aunt is very angry this time.” He was referring to Jiang Yao's mother, Cheng Shi.

Hearing this, Xing Shu's heart trembled. Jiang Yao was punished? Didn't she say that no one dared to hit her? She looked at Cheng Lang anxiously, but she heard Cheng Lang say indifferently, “Locked Jiang Yao in the dark room again? This is the only thing you know.” His tone was faintly mocking, and Cheng Xingyang did not dare to continue.

Cheng Lang looked ahead and ordered coldly, “Drive.”

Jian Yaochuan nodded and started the car.

Xing Shu's palms were sweating anxiously. “I'm sorry, is Jiang Yao's situation serious? I didn't think it through. I should be the one to send that video.”

“If you sent it, you would have been taken away by Old Master Cheng now.” Cheng Lang closed his eyes and tapped his fingers on his knees. “The Cheng family is very biased. No matter what Cheng Xingyang did or how wrong he was, Old Master Cheng will still think that it's your fault.” Now that Jiang Yao was taking the fall, Old Master Cheng would not pay attention to Xing Shu for the time being. However, if the video was really sent by Xing Shu, she would not live to see tomorrow. Cheng Gang was nothing, compared to Old Master Cheng's methods.

Xing snu•s race aarKenea. “1 Know. 1 Just wantea to Drmg Jiang Yao along to watch the show. I didn't mean to drag her down.” She felt guilty. Jiang Yao had suffered an undeserved ill turn this time.

Cheng Lang said, “It's fine. Jiang Yao is used to being locked up.”

Rumor had it that Cheng Shi treated Jiang Yao very badly. But why? Weren't they mother and daughter? Xing Shu also heard that Cheng Shi's husband was a pianist. He was handsome, gentle, and elegant. He had toured around the world. Coupled with Cheng Shi's eminent family background, the two of them were a perfect match. Why didn't she treat her child well?

Cheng Lang reached out and pulled Xing Shu into his arms, holding her waist.

“Back then, Cheng Shi pursued her current husband—Jiang Qinian—fanatically. Cheng Shi would watch every one of his performance, but Jiang Qinian had always rejected her wooing.”

Xing Shu was puzzled. But wasn't Cheng Shi with Jiang Qinian now?

Sensing Xing Shu's confusion, Cheng Lang stroked her chin and said, “One day, Cheng Shi went overseas to watch Jiang Qinian's performance and was ambushed by a group of hooligans. She was tortured for three days and three nights and was pregnant with Jiang Yao as a result. In order to cover up this scandal, the Cheng family forced Jiang Qinian to marry Cheng Shi. They announced to the public that the two of them could not control themselves and were pregnant before marriage. In my father's opinion, no one can ruin the Cheng family's reputation and no one can bully the Cheng family. Even though the Cheng family was unreasonable in this matter—as long as it's what a member of the Cheng family wants—they must have it.” Old Master Cheng's bias had reached the point of tyranny—disregarding the wishes of others.

In Xing Shu's opinion, Jiang Qinian was innocent. Right from the start, he had rejected Cheng Shi. It was Cheng Shi who pursued him relentlessly and desperately. Her unfortunate encounter was not his fault. In the end, she got what she wanted and married Jiang Qinian, pregnant with another man's child. Although everything that happened to Cheng Shi was very tragic, the most innocent person here was Jiang Qinian. However, the Cheng family was too powerful and he could not fight back..

Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you very much!
