Chapter 138 A Dramatic Love Affair in a Wealthy Family
Life is never a smooth journey.
Life is full of disappointments.
Mr. Zhu Yun is very successful in his career.
In those difficult times, they were able to fight their way out.
However, there are still some unsatisfactory aspects.
In this respect, it refers to marriage and offspring.
Mr. Zhu Yun has been married to two wives.
His first wife was his childhood sweetheart.
Their friendship, formed during their youth, was the purest of all.
There wasn't much drama involved; they've always had a good relationship.
Even after Zhu Yun became a bandit, more and more women wanted to be with him.
Zhu Yun remained deeply devoted to his wife.
But lovers can never grow old together.
When foreign enemies invade.
During a raid on the mountain stronghold, Zhu Yun's wife, Liu, and many other women were trapped.
The Japanese soldiers originally intended to use them to coerce the men of the mountain village into surrendering.
These ladies also possessed a certain air of江湖 (jianghu, the world of martial arts and chivalry) and banditry.
Rather die than be taken hostage, Zhu Yun's wife led her entourage to jump off a cliff.
Upon hearing news of the siege, Zhu Yun, who came to the rescue, only found his wife's body.
That time, almost all the women in the mountain village died.
The child survived and was hidden by the ladies in a secret, dark cave.
At the time, the five-year-old eldest son, Zhu Xiao, and the two-year-old daughter, Zhu Ling, escaped unharmed.
Zhu Yun led his brothers to avenge his family.
This is also one of the reasons why Zhu Yun readily accepted the offer of alliance.
Later, the revenge was taken, but the person never came back.
Many people advised him to remarry, saying that he should find someone to take care of his children.
Zhu Yun insisted on not finding another wife, feeling that no one could replace her.
Everyone says that Old Zhu is a romantic.
Fate is always so strange; Zhu Yun met his second wife, Wang Fen.
Wang Fen is the daughter of a capitalist.
He's still a student.
In that era, having both of these combined was incredibly desirable.
Wang Fen and Liu are two extremes.
Liu is simple, down-to-earth, hardworking, and persevering.
She possesses qualities unique to rural women.
Wang Fen is willful, arrogant, pretentious, and picky.
She's the kind of spoiled young lady that only wealthy families could raise.
Under normal circumstances.
Wang Fen and Zhu Yun are like parallel lines that will never intersect.
They will never end up together.
But fate is such a wonderful thing.
Miss Wang Fen got separated from her family.
When they encountered bad people, they unexpectedly sought help from Zhu Yun.
Zhu Yun disguised himself and infiltrated the city in order to kill a high-ranking official.
He was dressed as a junior officer.
Put on your military uniform and tidy yourself up.
Zhu Yun, 21 years old, is tall with a handsome face featuring thick eyebrows and big eyes.
Everyone who saw him would think he was some kind of adjutant; who would have thought he was a bandit?
Wang Fen was deceived by her appearance.
That's why they sought help from Zhu Yun.
Zhu Yun chased the people away and saved Wang Fen.
Wang Fen revealed his identity.
He also promised that if he took her home, her family would give him a generous reward.
Zhu Yun had heard of Old Master Wang's reputation and knew that he was rich and powerful.
They needed money to recruit soldiers.
Zhu Yun planned to make a profit from Wang Fen.
In addition, his undercover mission could not be exposed.
If Wang Fen's identity were to provide cover, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
So Wang Fen stayed by Zhu Yun's side.
Wang Fen is a young lady from a wealthy family, but she's not stupid.
They realized something was wrong before the second day was even over.
This deceptively handsome officer is a fake.
She remained calm and waited for an opportunity to escape.
He was no match for Zhu Yun and was cornered and captured several times.
The two also had an open and honest conversation.
Wang Fen agreed to help conceal Zhu Yun's identity so that he could complete his mission.
Zhu Yun promised Wang Fen that he would take her home after completing the task and give her some money as a reward.
The two, as temporary partners, began their bickering relationship.
They bicker, sabotage each other, and occasionally even get into physical fights.
Yet, in times of crisis, they held each other's hands without hesitation.
Let's get through this together.
Their relationship continued to heat up.
Sober yet unable to stop sinking into depravity.
They all knew.
They got nowhere.
The differences are not just in identity, class, stance, and beliefs.
They won't be together.
Yet, they couldn't help but be attracted by the other person's personal charm.
Eventually, the music will end and the party will break up.
After completing his mission, Zhu Yun killed the official and escaped successfully.
As promised, he sent Wang Fen home and received a large sum of money in return.
Their story has come to an end.
She stood at the door and watched him leave.
He left, never daring to look back.
He was afraid to turn back, so he couldn't bear to leave.
But he couldn't stay; he still had things to do.
Regret is ultimately the ending of the story.
But in this world where love makes people obsessed...
How can an ending that isn't a happy ending be sweet enough?
The gears of fate turned once more.
They met again.
This time, they share the same beliefs and stand in unison.
Identity, however, became an insurmountable barrier.
Wang Fen became Chen Mazi's fiancée.
Zhu Yun was Chen Mazi's bodyguard.
The two recognized each other at first glance and reached out their hands in perfect unison.
They introduced themselves as if it were their first meeting.
Wang Fen was used as a bargaining chip to win over Chen Mazi.
Their marriage is a done deal.
Even though they've never met and have no feelings for each other.
The wedding will still take place.
Wang Fen had never felt that fate was so cruel.
It would be better to never see them again than to be in this situation now.
They refrained from getting close and kept their distance.
And yet, they couldn't help but keep an eye on the other person's every move.
When Wang Fen went out, she unexpectedly witnessed someone stealing a child.
She and her team rescued the child.
When they took her home, they found out that she was Zhu Yun's daughter, Zhu Ling.
I also met his son, Zhu Xiao.
We met again after going around in circles.
Because of her status, Wang Fen left immediately after seeing the person off.
Both of them knew that the fewer such encounters, the better.
People always say that you can't hide your love for someone.
If you close your mouth, tears will flow from your eyes.
When you close your eyes, it will be reflected in your every move.
Their undercurrents could not escape the eyes of those around them.
The first person to discover it was Chen Mazi.
As the eldest brother, he knew this guy all too well.
He disliked Wang Fen; to him, Wang Fen was no different from a spy.
However, they unexpectedly discovered that Zhu Yun and Wang Fen had some connection.
As a career-oriented, straight man...
Chen Mazi's first reaction was that Wang Fen was trying to use her beauty to turn Zhu Yun against him.
That's the good thing about bandits; they're definitely action-oriented.
He trusted Zhu Yun but doubted Wang Fen.
They went directly to Zhu Yun and had an open and honest talk.
As a close friend, Zhu Yun trusted Chen Mazi, with whom he had a life-or-death bond, the most.
It was a bit embarrassing to talk about, but I still told them everything that happened.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mazi thought, "My brother is finally blooming again, I must support him."
Women are like clothes, brothers are like hands and feet.
How could he possibly lose his heart to Zhu Yun for a woman who is dispensable?
With Chen Mazi's strong encouragement.
The person she was betrothed to was changed to Zhu Yun.
The two lovers finally got married.
It is a predestined relationship from a previous life, so don't miss your destined marriage.
They'll be together for life.
She had two sons, Zhu Cong and Zhu Wen.
One daughter, Zhu Hui.
There is no plot involving a wicked stepmother.
Wang Fen treated Zhu Xiao and Zhu Ling as her own children.
The five siblings have a surprisingly good relationship.
But fate rarely grants everyone a smooth journey.
Zhu Xiao died in a thatched hut in the countryside when he was twenty.
His wife committed suicide and followed him.
A girl named Zhu Nian was left behind; she was frail and sickly.
He is currently recuperating abroad and rarely returns to China.
Zhu Ling married a teacher, but died unexpectedly in childbirth, leaving no child behind.
The teacher had found a new love and had long since lost contact with the Zhu family.
Wang Fen was worried about another incident, so she arranged for Zhu Cong to get married and have children as soon as possible.
Who knew that wives would die one after another, and he would have no children?
Wang Fen and Zhu Yun were so anxious that they lost hair.
Zhu Hui, the youngest daughter of the Zhu family, married a foreigner and went to live abroad.
If it weren't for the occasional trip back to China to see her, everyone would have thought she was long dead.
The youngest son, Zhu Wen, seems to have seen too much about his brother's experiences.
Disliking being told what to do, he left home early to work independently.
He started an entertainment company and spent his days drinking and going to bars.
Playing among the flowers, not a single petal clings to me.
He was a notorious playboy.
He's getting on in years, but he just won't get married.
Everyone thought he would stay single forever.
Nineteen years ago, a woman came to the door carrying a child, saying it was Zhu Wen's child.
Come to acknowledge your ancestors and return to your roots.
That child is Zhu Ya.
Zhu Ya's mother left the child and disappeared.
The Zhu family mobilized all their resources, but still couldn't find the person.
As for the other party involved, Zhu Wen, he had absolutely no recollection of such a woman.
The old man was so angry that he gave him a severe beating, and he was bedridden for three whole months.
To be on the safe side, Zhu Ya was taken to have a paternity test done.
It was confirmed that he was of Zhu family blood, and he was publicly acknowledged and taken back.
So, in the Zhu family, there were a total of five children in the previous generation.
By Zhu Ya's generation, there were only two children, one of whom was sickly.
Zhu Ya is the hope of the whole family.
A spoiled brat who was pampered and raised in the palm of his hand.
Of course, it's also because there are no other brothers or sisters to rely on.
Zhu Ya was raised with strict discipline and began getting involved in the family business at a very young age.
The person in power in the Zhu family now is his second uncle, Zhu Cong.
With such a family background, nothing unexpected is likely to happen.
Zhu Ya will definitely inherit the Zhu family business, and he will also inherit his father Zhu Wen's entertainment company.
But life is full of surprises.
Xia Chengping heard that someone from the Zhu family had recently come to their door.
They said Zhu Ya was an imposter, a fake young master, who brought back a real one.
There was another woman with him, who said she was Zhu Wen's girlfriend.
For this incident, Zhu Wen, such a playboy, got beaten up again.
The old man even brought out his whip this time.
I estimate I'll have to stay in bed for three or four months.
The paternity test is already underway.
Noble families value bloodlines, especially in situations where only one seedling grows on a vast expanse of land.
I heard that the real young master was recently taken home.
Zhu Ya, on the contrary, moved out.
Zhu Ya's trip out this time was probably because his family wanted him to relax.
How are things arranged at home?
Actually, this matter is very easy to resolve; it all depends on how those in power handle it.
Just like their eldest sister-in-law.
Isn't this just another version of the real and fake young masters?
The Zhou family handled the situation very decisively.
He treated Zhou Chao's illegitimate son as a treasure and had him inherit the family business.
They kicked Zhou Ran out and left her to fend for herself, yet they still kept thinking of kicking her while she was down.
If Zhou Ran weren't so capable, and had the Xia family as her backer...
I reckon the grass on that grave is already as tall as a person by now. Author's note: Thanks to my mentor 9492239 for their support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
