Cheng Song was shocked by Cheng Yang's reaction. He immediately realized that this matter had become serious. "Brother, didn't Ou Yalan tell you the truth?"
Cheng Yang said nothing, and his whole body exuded a sinister aura.
Seeing that Cheng Yang's face was darker than the black executive jacket he was wearing, Cheng Song became frightened.
Oh shit!
It looks like Ou Yalan really hid the truth from his brother.
Well, well, well, this old man who loves to scheme has been schemed by the little girl this time.
It is really karma, no one can escape it!
"...I still have to go to Song Garden to see the old lady off to the funeral, so I'll run away first!" Cheng Song ran away crawling.
Cheng Song seems to be out of touch, but he is very clear-headed.
When Cheng Song learned that his brother was in secret contact with Ou Yalan, he guessed that Cheng Yang was attracted by Ou Yalan's family background and wanted to marry her.
But he also felt that with his brother's conditions, if they really wanted to arrange a marriage, he could still pick a girl with better conditions.
After all, Ou Jingyu, the most powerful member of the Ou family, is only a warden and is almost at retirement age.
There is not much that Ou Jingyu can do to help Cheng Yang.
His brother, who does not have a strong political background, actually needs a strong woman with both skills and background.
Although Ou Yalan is beautiful, she can only dance ballet and is not really a good wife.
Now it seems that what his brother values is not the network of contacts of Ou Yalan's father, but the network of contacts of Ou Yalan's grandparents, the Jun family!
The Jun family is a truly prestigious family in Kyoto, a behemoth that many politicians are trying their best to make friends with.
By marrying Ou Yalan, you can get the support of the Jun family. This is a very profitable business!
Now that his dream was shattered, his brother was bound to go crazy, so Cheng Song ran away very quickly.

Today is the day of Chu Zhi's funeral.
Early in the morning, 7:18.
The funeral procession set out from Song Garden. Song Jingcheng wore mourning clothes and walked at the front of the procession holding Chu Zhi's portrait in his hand.
Chen He and the Song clan members lagged behind, following the team silently.
The huge funeral procession, like a long dragon, walked along the main street of Xingyun District to the funeral home for cremation.
When they arrived at the funeral home, Chu Zhi, dressed in funeral clothes, was pushed into the crematorium.
Before lighting the furnace, the staff asked Song Jingcheng if he wanted to take one last look at Chu Zhi, but Song Jingcheng directly refused.
Near noon, the coffin containing Chu Zhi's urn was placed steadily into the cemetery.
Watching the staff nail the coffin shut, Song Jingcheng's heart still ached.
He was not too sad, but that person was his mother after all, and they once had the closest relationship in the world.
And now, he has really become an adult without parents.
Chen He secretly grabbed Song Jingcheng's hand and said, "Cry if you want to."
Song Jingcheng shook his head and said, "I can't cry in front of her."
When I was little, I didn’t dare cry in front of Chu Zhi because Chu Zhi thought boys should be strong and masculine, and crying was a sign of failure.
No matter what happens, if Song Jingcheng cries, he will be punished.
Over time, no matter how painful or sad he was, Song Jingcheng couldn't cry when facing Chu Zhi.
Because he knows that tears only work on people who love you.
The Song family is a big family.
Song Jingcheng's grandfather, Song Zhenguo, was once the patriarch of the Song family. After his death, another respected old professor in the family took over.
Three years ago, the old professor also passed away due to old age. Now the patriarch of the Song family is Song Kangsheng, Song Jingcheng's cousin.
Song Kangsheng is over eighty years old and needs to use a cane to walk.
After the funeral, Song Jingcheng took Chen He to visit Song Kangsheng and asked for permission to open an ancestral hall and set up a spirit tablet for Chu Zhi.
Chu Zhi was Song Chang'an's legitimate wife, so after her death, she could certainly be buried in the Song family ancestral hall. The old patriarch looked through the old almanac and set a date: "Then it will be on the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month before the New Year. What do you think?"
Song Jingcheng said, "All is fine."
"By the way, Chen He and I have already obtained our marriage certificate and will be holding our wedding on January 8th. I hope the old patriarch can come with his entire family to watch the ceremony."
Song Kangsheng looked at Chen He, who was sitting quietly beside him, with satisfaction. He smiled and said, "Jingcheng, you have a good lover. Your aunt went to Song Garden this time and kept telling me that you found a sweet and lovable girl."
"He also said that in the entire Song family, your wife is the most beautiful and the most eloquent."
Song Kangsheng asked Chen He, "Chen He girl, I heard that you are an architectural designer who graduated from the Department of Architecture at Kyoto University? That Treasure Library in the Forest in Gangcheng was designed by you, right?"
Chen He nodded and said, "Treasure in the Forest is indeed my work, and it is also my famous work. I didn't expect that my uncle would pay attention to my work."
Treasures in the Forest was a work designed independently by Chen He when he was 21 years old. It was put into use only last year and has now become a new architectural check-in spot in the port city.
Song Jingcheng explained, "Uncle Kang Sheng's grandson is an architect, and the Treasures in the Forest Library was built by their team."
"So fate?"
Song Kangsheng blew the tea foam off the water and said with a smile, "My grandson really admires you. After learning about your relationship with Jingcheng, he mentioned it to me several times."
Song Jingcheng glanced at Chen He with a half-smile and said, "Excellent people are always admired."
"Ha ha!"
"Don't worry, as long as we old guys can walk, we will all be there for your wedding!"
"Oh, right." Song Kangsheng remembered something and asked Song Jingcheng, "Liansheng has been gone for so many years. She has not been buried in the Mu family ancestral hall, nor in the Song family ancestral hall."
