Chapter 358 Second Uncle and Second Aunt
This plot may sound cliché, but it really struck a chord with the romantic heart of the Liu family's eldest daughter. From then on, the two fell in love and were inseparable.
If the plot of the TV series is followed, Cheng Qi and Liu Qiuyu should get married soon after falling in love and live a happy life from then on.
However, reality is not a TV drama, and Liu Qiuyu is not a princess in a fairy tale.
On her 25th wedding anniversary with Cheng Qi, Liu Qiuyu committed suicide by jumping off a building.
This incident caused a huge uproar in the circle at the time. Many people could not accept that a talented woman who was famous in the imperial capital could commit suicide in such a tragic way.
What is even more unacceptable is that three months after Liu Qiuyu committed suicide, Cheng Qi married his second wife with great fanfare.
"I've heard some rumors before that Cheng Qi's second wife was actually his first love. After Liu Qiuyu passed away, Cheng Qi was devastated, and it just so happened that his first love was always by his side, comforting him during that time. So, Cheng Qi was deeply moved and took her home to marry as quickly as possible."
Cheng Jinyan: "Indeed, there is such a saying. Do you think it is true?"
Ruan Qi shook his head, with a hint of sarcasm on the corners of his mouth.
"Rather than the romantic plot of 'first love always by your side', I'm more inclined to believe that Cheng Qi and his first love have been secretly together for a long time. Maybe they were already hooking up when Liu Qiuyu was still alive."
The little girl had always been gentle and rarely spoke in an aggressive manner. But this time, for some reason, she had used the word "hooking up" to describe his grandparents in such a pointed way right in front of Cheng Jinyan.
Such rash and rude behavior is really unlike her style.
Cheng Jinyan looked at her in surprise.
"Ms. Ruan, you seem to be very disgusted with this kind of thing."
"Yes." Ruan Qi admitted without any reservation, "I feel sick! Very sick!"
Cheng Jinyan felt like something was wrong.
Cheng Qi and his first love were secretly having an affair while Liu Qiuyu was still alive. Although this was disgusting, it was ultimately an internal matter of the Cheng family.
As a bystander, why did Ruan Qi react so strongly?
Cheng Jinyan frowned in confusion and was about to ask further questions when Ruan Qi suddenly spoke up, "Young Master Cheng, those two people you just mentioned who are very important to you, are they related to Liu Qiuyu?"
Cheng Jinyan didn't expect the little girl to be so smart. He was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"Yes. Those two people... are Liu Qiuyu's son and daughter-in-law, and also my blood uncle and aunt."
Ruan Qi clenched her hands on her knees suddenly.
She lowered her eyes again, hiding the coldness in them, and said softly, "Liu Qiuyu is Cheng Qi's first wife. The child she gave birth to should be the eldest. Why do you call him second uncle instead of eldest uncle?"
This question made Cheng Jinyan silent instantly.
Liu Qiuyu was Cheng Qi's first wife and gave birth to a son one year after their marriage.
And that first love didn't come into the family until 25 years later. The child she gave birth to, Cheng Jinyan's father, Cheng Bosong, should be younger than Liu Qiuyu's son.
But Cheng Jinyan called Liu Qiuyu's son "Second Uncle".
This means that Cheng Jinyan's father, Cheng Bosong, is older than the child born to Liu Qiuyu.
But how is this possible?
