Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wu Minxia and Xin Guotai did not agree with Xing Shu posting such a video. After all—as the saying went—don’t wash dirty linen in public. Now that the entire city knew about it, everyone was embarrassed. However, if they were to annul the engagement, what would happen to the business dealings between the Xing and Cheng families?
Xing Guotai said, “Madam Chen, this matter is indeed Xing Shu’s fault. How about I get her to apologize to you?
Chen Ru’s face was filled with disdain. Apologize? Could an apology salvage her son’s reoutation.P
Chen Ru said, “How much is Xing Shu’s apology worth? It’s all Xing Shu’s fault that my son is being crucified. Xing Linlin is also from your family.”
Xing Guotai and Wu Minxia—who had acted like elders in front of Xing Linlin— were like two students who had made a mistake in front of Chen Ru. Chen Ru did not really hate Xing Linlin—but now that things had come to this— someone had to take the fall. If Xing Linlin knew what was good for her and took the initiative to admit that she had seduced Cheng Xingyang who was not able to control himself, the public outcry would shift to Xing Linlin. Cheng Xingyang would be exonerated. However, Xing Linlin clearly did not realize this yet.
Chen Ru sneered and looked at the three of them. “Cheng Xingyang and Xing
Shu’s engagement must be annulled. As for his fianceé, it won’t be Xing Linlin. I won’t let a mistress marry into the family.”
Xing Linlin’s face turned pale when she heard this. Chen Ru used to treat her well, but now she was saying this. Did she mean to give up on her completely?
Xing Linlin’s fingers kept trembling. If Xing Guotai wanted to put her out to pasture… If Chen Ru convinced Cheng Xingyang to cut ties with her, she would have no one to rely on. No, she still had Xing Zewu… But after the video went viral, Xing Zewu did not call her. Any man would feel disgusted to see a sex video of the woman he liked screwing another man. Xing Zewu was a very prideful man.
Xing Linlin was really flustered this time. Tears streamed down her face. She looked at Chen Ru and met her gaze. Chen Ru said, “Xing Linlin, take the fall for this matter and cut off ties with Cheng Xingyang. Old Master Cheng will never let you marry into the family with such a video in existence.” Her words coincided with Xing Guotai’s to a certain extent.
Xing Linlin cried even more miserably. How did things turn out like this? She sobbed, “Aunt Chen, I… ”
“Don’t tell me that you cant bear to leave Cheng Xingyang. Let me tell you, if you don’t leave, you won’t get a single cent in the future.” Chen Ru l s tone was very impatient. Xing Linlin choked, and a hint of embarrassment appeared in her eyes.
Xing Guotai and Wu Minxia began to persuade Xing Linlin, “Linlin, don’t worry. We’ll give you a large sum of money.”
With Chen Ru l s words, the three of them were now on the same side. An unprecedented humiliation engulfed Xing Linlin’s heart. She had worked hard for so many years to come to this?! She was really resentful! Her cell phone rang again—it was still the director of Radiant Welfare Home, Feng Daxiang. Her intuition told her that the director must have something urgent. She pressed the answer button in a deadbeat manner and heard Feng Daxiangs anxious voice. “Linlin, someone has come to our welfare home. It seems that a rich lady lost her daughter back then. There’s something wrong with your file. Come and correct it. If it’s really you… Linlin, you’re the daughter of a prestigious family.”
The daughter of a prestigious family? Xing Linlin thought that she had misheard. “Director, are you confused?”
“Linlin, I’m telling the truth. Now that theyre here, they want to do a paternity test immediately. We can’t be careless about this,” Feng Daxiang said.
Xing Linlin was not interested in this. She guessed that the daughter of a rich family had gone missing. As for how rich the family could be, it was definitely not comparable to the Xing and Cheng families. She felt disappointed and her nose began to sting. However, Feng Daxiangs words echoed. “Linlin, they refused to reveal their true identity. But let me tell you, their family is very eminent internationally; even better than the Xing and Cheng families. The missing girl has an elder brother who’s been looking for his sister all these years. It’s obvious that they really love this missing girl. As long as your information matches, you are set for the rest of your life. When the time comes, it’ll be your turn to help Xing Shu..”
