Chapter 82: Superiority

Cheng Lang nodded—rubbed his temples—and walked out of the bedroom. There were three meetings coming up; he was supposed to be there in person, but he stood all the senior management up last night. Cheng Lang's eyes darkened. He must never make such a mistake again.

Meanwhile, at the Liu residence, Liu Xiangru did not immediately take action after receiving the news last night. She glanced at the full table of breakfast and sat down. In another 10 minutes, Nie Heng's men would show up, bearing gifts of the most popular stuff of the season. This had almost become a tradition for the past few years.

Nie Heng had sent the wristwatch over yesterday, drawing the envy of everyone. Ever since their engagement, Nie Heng had developed a habit of gifting her regularly. Liu Xiangru's health was very poor and she had had a weak constitution since she was young. On one hand, she enjoyed Nie Heng's affection towards her, but on the other hand, she was very indignant. Why did she have to be so frail? It was so bad that she could not even bear the stress of copulation.

Liu Xiangru coughed a few times and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. She lowered her head and took a sip of warm soup before asking, “Xing Shu? Is she the young lady of the Xing family? I haven't attended any gatherings all these years. Is she very famous in the Beijing social circle? Why did Liu Chun want to give her the works?”

The servant shook her head. “Ms. Liu Chun is very impulsive. I heard that she wants to stick up for Ms. Feng Jian. They are very chummy.”

Liu Xiangru found these matters bothersome and did not want to get involved. Besides, she was annoyed with the petty fighting and underhanded schemes among women; she found them unseemly. However, on second thought… If she could resolve this matter, everyone would know she had Nie Heng's ear.

The servant continued, “Ms. Liu Chun went to the police station yesterday.”

Liu Xiangru nodded and said unhurriedly, “I'll contact Nie Heng when the other members of the Liu family ask me for help.” After all, this involved the President of Cheng Corporation Group—Cheng Lang. She did not have the reach and needed Nie Heng to step in. However, she could not help but frown. “Do you know why Feng Jian wanted to give Xing Shu the works? Did the two of them have a grudge?”

The servant thought for a while and hazard a guess. “Both of them work at

Cheng Corporation Group. They probably have conflicts at work.”

Liu Xiangru nodded and did not take it to heart. In any case, it would take just a phone call to resolve this. Liu Chun's parents ate the humble pie in a call to Liu Xiangru half an hour later. Before Liu Xiangru's engagement to Nie Heng, she had been mocked by these people because of her weak constitution. However, ever since Nie Heng declared his undying love for her and pledged to only marry her and her only, their attitude changed. Even her status in the Liu family was rising incrementally. Otherwise, she would have been sent away long ago due to her weak constitution.

Liu Xiangru deliberately did not pick up the phone and pretended to be busy.

When the phone rang for the tenth time, she picked it up and said softly, “Alright, I'll call Nie Heng. Since Xing Shu lost the item, she should bear the responsibility for it. As for the fund transfer traced to Liu Chun, you can settle it with some money.”

The person on the other end of the phone praised Liu Xiangru a few times before hanging up. Although Liu Xiangru was satisfied, she was also cautious. She asked the servant a few more questions. “Why did Feng Jian go to work at Cheng Corporation Group?” She could not understand why Feng Jian did not go to her own family's company. Why did she go to Cheng Corporation Group? And how did the enmity with Xing Shu come about?

“Does Xing Shu have any other identities?” Liu Xiangru had been living in seclusion all these years and rarely went out. Hence, she was unaware of Xing Shu and Cheng Xingyang's engagement.

The servant replied, “Xing Shu and Cheng Xingyang are engaged.”

Liu Xiangru fretted at this answer. Since Xing Shu and Cheng Xingyang were engaged, Cheng Xingyang would definitely stick his finger in the pie.

The servant continued, “But Milady, you don't have to worry about this. Few people know about Xing Shu and Cheng Xingyang's engagement. Moreover, Liu Chun made it verv clear that Cheng Xingvang has Dubliclv declared in Cheng Corporation Group that he doesn't like Xing Shu and will annul the engagement sooner or later.”

Liu Xiangru heaved a sigh of relief. Since it had nothing to do with the Cheng family and Xing Shu was just an unloved young lady of the Xing family, this matter was easy to resolve. She took a sip of tea and planned to call Nie Heng later. She did not think that she would cause any trouble for Xing Shu by helping Liu Chun. Or rather, in this world of survival of the fittest—without a strong backing—Xing Shu deserved to be bullied. She could only blame herself for stepping on the wrong toes..
