Chapter 256 He Lied to You
"Have you asked Engel and your wife to do a paternity test?" Yu Chengbai asked.
"What's the meaning?"
Cheng Zhengze was confused at first, then quickly frowned. The flash of surprise in his eyes showed that he definitely had not done it.
Yu Chengbai said gently, "Enge is your and your wife's child."
“…”
As soon as the words fell, it seemed as if the whole world was quiet.
For several generations of the Cheng family, whenever the previous heir became seriously ill, brothers and sisters would kill each other, and uncles and nephews would tear each other apart. This has never stopped. From Cheng Zhengze's father to the three generations before him, they have basically been killing each other like this.
It wasn't until Cheng Zhengze came that it was completely cut off.
Because he was even more cruel than his fathers and ancestors, he not only killed his brothers and sisters, but also his uncles and aunts. Anyone who had the slightest possibility of affecting his family's status in the future, he would rather kill by mistake than let go.
He appears to be a gentleman, but is actually cruel.
But even such a scheming and resourceful winner of the power grab could not understand what Yu Cheng meant in his words.
Chew it repeatedly, take it apart to read, and bite it into pieces to savor it.
I only read out chaos and tasted confusion.
"What are you talking about?" Cheng Zhengze frowned.
"Your wife is a young lady from the Cecil family. She's not very favored and doesn't hold a high status. Her mother was just a slave bought from the underground city. Because she was beautiful, she was taken back to the Golden Triangle by the then-ruler of the Cecil family."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Cheng Zhengze began to get annoyed.
"Do you know that many heirs of noble families in the Golden Triangle have died mysteriously?"
"I know. And then?"
"The Cecil family's original heir is also dead. All six children died." Yu Chengbai paused, looking at his slightly widened eyes, and continued, "Only Eng, your and your wife's son, was assassinated after becoming the heir."
“…”
"The killer who went there was Ning Yan. He took the order on the dark web. Do you know who sent the order?"
Yu Chengbai rarely gave anyone time to answer and directly said, "It's Lan Ze."
"You also attended the farce that took place on Rose Island a while ago and were standing outside. I'm sure you know his identity—the young master of the Grant family many years ago."
"A young nobleman from a declining family and an unpopular young noblewoman from the same family would surely have some sympathy for each other."
"...So what?" Cheng Zhengze stared at him intently.
Yu Chengbai asked him, "Why do you think Lan Ze left the Golden Triangle to become a killer? And why did he happen to enter 735? And why did he meet Ning Yan?"
"Is it possible? The normal time sequence is like this—"
"Ning Yan went to the Golden Triangle to complete a mission and met the unwelcome young lady from the Cecil family. Did she teach her some survival skills? Like using a gun? Like using a knife? Like...disguise?"
All suspicion, panic, and fear turned into unprecedented horror the moment the last two words fell.
His legs felt like they were filled with lead, making it difficult for him to move at all.
The expression on his face couldn't tell whether it was confusion, shock, or the anger and shame at the moment when years of deception were exposed.
Yu Chengbai gave him a few seconds to react, then continued, "The young lady from the Cecil family released the bullied young master of the Grant family and told him to go to the Central and Eastern parts of the country, to the 735 Organization, and find someone named Ning Yan there."
"He will definitely help him."
"So, he went and from then on had a new name - Lan Ze."
Cheng Zhengze's eyes were almost blind, his chest was heaving due to the severe blow and excessive emotions. His pupils were red, his head was splitting with pain, and his ears were filled with electromagnetic tinnitus.
Yu Chengbai still looked at him with that gentle expression and said, "Your wife is a very smart and ambitious person."
"At first, she wanted freedom and stability. Breaking free from the cage was her only wish."
"Later, she began to feel resentful. Why should she be the fish on the chopping board?"
"Why can't she be the heir to the Cecil family?"
"Why can't the Golden Triangle be hers?"
"Continent M can't be trampled under her feet?"
She just stood by and watched the fire from the other side of the river, waiting for the various forces to fight to the death, and not even a corner of her clothes was dirty.
Outside, the clouds are dark and treacherous, with hidden attacks and threats. She sits in a gorgeous manor, watering flowers and tending grass, being a gentle and introverted noble lady who dares not go out to see people easily. She is married to a wealthy businessman and becomes a stepmother to him, just a decorative vase.
The dead Xiaoyan has been a thorn buried deep in the hearts of Ning Yan and Morose for many years.
This thorn has been stuck for more than ten years, buried deep in the flesh, invisible and intangible, and only causes a dull pain at night when no one is around.
Suddenly one day, this thorn broke through the skin and flesh, giving people hope that it could be pulled out.
Xiaoyan is in Chris Prison.
There is suddenly news about a person who has been dead for more than ten years. Why would Ning Yan, who is a figure that is unmatched in the entire killer world, believe it so firmly?
Why do you firmly believe that the other party must be in Chris Prison?
Why don't you think it's a trap?
"Your brother Cheng Jin." Yu Chengbai looked at the almost distraught Cheng Zhengze and said softly, "He probably didn't grow up with you when he was a child, right?"
It took Cheng Zhengze a while to come back to his senses. He looked up at him but did not answer.
"Before I took over, the person responsible for winning over and integrating the various forces of the Middle East Federation was Gu Jiujing. The Tan family has always wanted to win him over, especially the former head of the Tan family, Tan Zhui, who was very fond of him. However, he is more friendly with you."
"because……"
Cheng Zhengze looked at him.
Yu Chengbai seemed to be guessing, but his tone was firm: "Your brother was brought back by him thirteen years ago."
"Ten years ago," Cheng Zhengze said bewilderedly, "He brought a boy to see me, saying he was my younger brother, but I only knew I had a younger sister who lived in the capital. I lost contact with her after my mother died..."
He frowned, "Gu Jiujing told me that he is a younger brother, but he was worried about being implicated when the Cheng family seized power, so he was dressed as a girl since he was a child."
"He said my brother was frightened when my mother died, so he lost his memory and didn't remember anything."
"He lied to you." Yu Chengbai said, "Your brother is the person Ning Yan has been looking for, the Ning Yan who was supposed to have died on Rose Island."
"Why did he lie to me?" Cheng Zhengze looked up suddenly.
"Because he was also involved in your brother's original 'death'."
