“Back then, she thought Lao Yang didn’t earn enough from his breakfast shop, so she urged him to go work in another city. When Lao Yang wasn’t home, she revealed her true nature and mistreated Chu Ling’s child in every way. The child had a high fever for two days, but she didn’t take him to see a doctor. In the end, the child died from the illness.”
After Cheng's father finished speaking, the three people in front of him became angry. Even Cheng Ye, who rarely swore, couldn't help but curse, "You two are a dog."
Cheng Zhi was absolutely furious. She put herself in their shoes and thought that if it were her, she might have already killed that despicable couple and was currently in jail.
Cheng Ye, who was standing next to her, recalled what happened next and sneered, "Bad people will be punished by heaven. She had an affair with a married man, which caused the death of his wife and two children. She won't have a good life either."
Cheng Zhi and Xiao Feiran turned their attention to Cheng Ye, asking him to recount what had happened next.
Cheng Ye recalled for a moment and said, "I also heard it from Grandpa Li. Her son, who was in junior high school, passed away the year before last or the year before last. It was said that he had a high fever, which led to other illnesses, and he couldn't be saved."
"She only had one child, and then she lost everything. So she thought about having another one, but she couldn't have any of them. She never gave up, and in the end, she was seven months pregnant, but she still lost the baby. Because of multiple miscarriages, she could no longer have children, and her health deteriorated."
It was quite tragic, but Cheng Zhi didn't care at all. "No matter how miserable she is, she can't bring back Aunt Chu Ling."
After finishing the story, Cheng Zhi patted her father's hand and said, "Go and keep Mom company. She must be very sad right now."
Mr. Cheng nodded, got up and left, but returned three seconds later, gesturing for them to be quiet. "Don't tell anyone, and especially don't mention it to your mother!"
The three of them all gave an 'OK' sign; they wouldn't rub salt into their mother's wounds.
After Dad left, the three of them fell silent, each seemingly lost in their own thoughts.
After a long while, Cheng Zhi turned and looked at Xiao Feiran with deep affection, "Don't worry, I'll protect your love from now on! If anyone dares to cheat on you, I'll chop them into mincemeat!"
"..." Xiao Feiran hesitated, "No, your departure is good, but could you please not leave yet? Do I have to encounter a jerk? Can't you just wish me to meet a good person in the future!"
Cheng Ye shook her head in disgust. "Sis, go read some books. You have no sense of the art of conversation."
Cheng Zhi: "...I was wrong. I'll punish myself by reading 'High Emotional Intelligence Chatting Skills' a hundred times."
