Chapter 14 Questioning (1/2)



It was already evening when Zhou Cheng left the Cheng residence.

He opened the goods store with satisfaction and glanced at the points display in the upper right corner: "60,941 points added today, total points: 101,853 points."

Before heading back home.

Zhou Cheng once again demonstrated his shameless, impulsive nature, and shared three reluctant kisses with the obedient and gentle Miss Cheng. At least four-fifths of his 60,000+ points came from these kisses.

He also wanted to take it slow and proceed step by step, but the Zhou family's current situation couldn't wait for anyone!

"Young master, we have arrived at the General's Mansion." The servant lowered his voice and said to the carriage inside, "Miss Lin's carriage is also here; it seems she has been waiting for you for a long time."

Miss Lin?

What the hell is Lin... Oh, it's Lin Jiaoyun!

A cold glint and a hint of mockery flashed in Zhou Cheng's eyes. He simply lifted the curtain and swaggered downstairs.

really!

The next second, he bumped into Lin Jiaoyun, whose face was gloomy and pale.

She was standing on the steps of the Zhou residence, her fists clenched tightly, her face showing a mixture of anger and resentment, and a haughty arrogance. She was glaring at him with eyes that seemed to condemn a heartless man.

Zhou Cheng raised an eyebrow, glanced at Lin Jiaoyun lightly, and walked directly past her into the mansion.

"stop!!!"

Lin Jiaoyun waited outside the door for a full hour, from afternoon until evening. In the past, the Zhou family would always greet her with smiles and invite her in when they knew she was coming, but today the Zhou family acted as if they were dead.

He simply sent a guard to dismiss her, without mentioning inviting her into the mansion for tea!

This stark difference in treatment struck Lin Jiaoyun as a stark contrast: "Zhou Cheng, what exactly do you mean! Don't you have anything to explain?"

Zhou Cheng stopped in his tracks, looking at Lin Jiaoyun with a sneer in his eyes: "An explanation? What explanation?"

"Do you want to hear the explanation for giving the phoenix coronet to Miss Cheng?"

"Do you still want to hear my explanation for taking her to the flower market?"

"Do you still want to hear my explanation for ignoring you?"

Lin Jiaoyun was so angry that her lips were trembling. Listen to this tone of voice: "Is this how you talk to me now?"

“Zhou Cheng, why are you forcing me? You know perfectly well that I am not the kind of woman who can be moved by a few taels of silver, much less a plaything like Cheng Xianyi who can be summoned and dismissed at will. I am pure and innocent, with the people and a sense of righteousness in my heart. How can you humiliate me like this?”

"Phew... I'm giving you one last chance—"

"I need a century-old Ganoderma lucidum to save a very important person—a life. You must produce the Ganoderma lucidum and apologize to me before I'll consider listening to your explanation. Otherwise!"

"Shut up, you filthy bitch." Before Lin Jiaoyun could finish the second half of her smug and confident sentence, Zhou Cheng raised his hand to interrupt her.

He curled his lips into a mocking smile and uttered a sentence that made her heart ache: "I've really had enough of your scheming, diamond-encrusted face."

"Still want to explain?"

"Heh, I gave you the phoenix crown, I held your hand, and now I don't like you anymore, you idiot, that's the explanation!"

The moment the words left his mouth, the whole world fell silent.

But Lin Jiaoyun didn't break down; she just gave a light, sarcastic laugh.

With an expression that says, "I understand, I know, I know everything," he said confidently and fearlessly, "Are you sure you want to waste this last chance to explain?"

"If you don't make me happy today and beg for my forgiveness, do you know what the consequences will be? The consequences will be that I will never speak a word to you again for the rest of my life, and you will completely lose your true love!"

Zhou Cheng: "......."

The servants and attendants present were all frightened and lowered their heads.

Perhaps at this moment, they were all thinking to themselves that the young master would surely be flustered and apologize.

After all, Miss Lin has made such harsh remarks. How could the young master, who loves Miss Lin so much, possibly remain unmoved?

However!
