On the same night, on the other side of the imperial capital, a dialogue was taking place in the old residence of the Cheng family.
In the study, a solemn atmosphere lingered. Cheng Qi, the head of the Cheng family, and his wife Xu Qingya, sat face to face in silence.
On the coffee table in front of them, there is a stack of information. On the first page of the information, Ruan Fengmian's photo is posted on it.
Xu Qingya sat on the sofa, her eyes lowered, and her eyes swept over the photos, with a cold light surging in her eyes.
Cheng Qi, who was sitting opposite her, slapped the coffee table hard, his voice full of anger: "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"
Xu Qingya didn't move, a deep mockery flashed across her eyes.
"Tell you what?" She curled her lips and sneered, "Tell you that the bastard your first wife gave birth to came back?"
Cheng Qi was furious and said: "What bastard? Bainian is my and Qiu Yu's biological son!"
The sneer at the corner of Xu Qingya's mouth got even worse: "My biological son? Who acquiesced in my pursuit of my biological son back then? It's only been twenty years, you won't forget it, right?"
When the fig leaf was lifted, Cheng Qi choked and became a little angry: "Why are you talking like this now?"
"Otherwise? How do you want me to talk to you? Gentle and petty? Dignified and virtuous?"
Xu Qingya has been pretending to be a pretty girl for more than 20 years, and she has long been impatient. In the past, it was because of her unstable status that she had to keep a low profile in front of Cheng Qi. But now, her children are so old.
The status of the old lady of the Cheng family has become unshakable, and she has also gained the core say in Organization X.
Now that the power is already in hand, who is willing to compromise with Cheng Qixu?
Xu Qingya looked at him coldly and said sarcastically: "You may have forgotten. The truly gentle and carefree person is Liu Qiuyu, and the truly reasonable lady is also Liu Qiuyu. What did you say when you broke up with me for Liu Qiuyu?
?You said that I come from a humble background and always speak in a petty manner. So you think I am not suitable to be your wife. Cheng Qi, you will not forget what you said back then, right?"
Maybe it was Ruan Fengmian's return that stimulated Xu Qingya, but she didn't show mercy at all today.
Cheng Qi was embarrassed by what she said, and he didn't want to admit his rubbish behavior back then. He licked his face and argued: "It's been so many years, why do you keep bringing up old scores? I had no choice back then, the competition in the Cheng family was so fierce.
, if I don’t marry Liu Qiuyu, how can I get the support of the Liu family. I did wronged you at the time, but didn’t I straighten you up later? You are the wife of the Cheng family now, what else are you dissatisfied with?" p>
The more Cheng Qi spoke, the more he felt that he was making sense, and his voice became louder.
Xu Qingya looked at his face and sneered heavily.
Yes, she is now the wife of the housekeeper, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
There are many things she is dissatisfied with!
She was dissatisfied with others being respectful in person and calling her mistress behind her back; she was dissatisfied with people from wealthy families always comparing Liu Qiuyu with her; she was dissatisfied with Cheng Qi calling Liu Qiuyu's name from time to time in his sleep; she was even less dissatisfied with her children
Although they are useless, Liu Qiuyu’s descendants are like dragons and phoenixes among people, and are looked up to by countless people!
Why? Why?!
Obviously Liu Qiuyu is the loser, but everyone only remembers her goodness.
And what about her, Xu Qingya?
I spent my whole life scheming in the big house of the Cheng family, but in the end I got nothing. Even my closest pillow partner would only impatiently ask, ‘What else are you dissatisfied with?’
Why is all this happening?!
Xu Qingya was extremely unwilling. She looked at Cheng Qi coldly, with jealousy and hatred surging in her eyes.
Cheng Qi had never seen Xu Qingya like this. He was startled, and a trace of fear arose in his heart.
Xu Qingya caught the fear in Cheng Qi's eyes, and felt it was ironic and funny.
This is the head of the Cheng family who makes outsiders fearful. He is selfish and ruthless, but he is strong on the outside and cowardly on the inside.
He has strong ambition, but he does not have the ability to match his ambition. He relied on women to become the head of the family, but he will never have the upright character like Mr. Xi.
He is like a rat in the gutter, insidious and cunning, and only knows how to use all kinds of shameful means. Even if he puts on a dragon robe, he will never look like an emperor, but like a mouse in human skin.<
/p>
Xu Qingya looked down on Cheng Qi from the bottom of her heart.
She looked at him mockingly, her eyes growing colder.
Cheng Qi felt guilty when she saw him, and couldn't help but slow down his tone and said: "Xiaoya, I know you were wronged about what happened back then, and I have tried my best to make up for it over the years. Liu Qiuyu is dead, although Bainian is not dead.
, but has also left the Cheng family. Now you are the wife of the Cheng family, so don’t worry about those old things and live a good life, can’t you?"
"Have a good life?"
Xu Qingya slowly raised her eyebrows, "Do you think Cheng Bainian will let us live a good life?"
Cheng Qi's expression froze.
Xu Qingya glanced at him, took out a lady's cigarette, lit it, put it to her mouth and took a puff.
After a moment, she exhaled smoke and said in a cold voice: "We killed his mother, and almost killed him and Lin Yan. Cheng Bainian has been dormant for twenty years. Now that he has returned to the imperial capital, you won't think that he has come back to recognize his relatives.
Right?"
Cheng Qi's expression became stiffer and he retorted feebly: "He...I am his father after all."
Xu Qingya seemed to have heard some joke and let out a funny "ha".
"Father? Does your Cheng family still have such a thing as family ties? Cheng Qi, how did your father and brother die back then? You don't need me to remind you?"
When the old head of the Cheng family was still there, Cheng Qi was not favored, and the old head's preferred heir was not him, but the eldest son of that time.
However, a car accident came like a nightmare, taking away the old patriarch and his eldest son. The other two sons of the old patriarch also died and were disabled, and in the end only Cheng Qi was left.
After this incident happened, many people lamented what happened to the old head of the Cheng family and several young masters. Many people also lamented that Cheng Qi was so lucky that he got the position of head of the family for nothing.
But only Xu Qingya knew that the deaths of the old family head and his sons were all caused by Cheng Qi.
In order to become the head of the family, he designed to marry Liu Qiuyu. After gaining some power through the Liu family, he killed his father and his brother, doing all kinds of bad things.
The past events that he least wanted to think of were mentioned, and Cheng Qi's face suddenly turned ugly.
He said in a very bad tone: "Why are you still mentioning those things?!"
"I don't want to mention it either," Xu Qingya lazily held a cigarette and looked at him coolly, "I just want to remind you that there is no such thing as family love in the Cheng family. Back then, you killed your father and brother, and then you killed your wife.
Zi. Your blood is flowing in Cheng Bainian’s body. Do you think... will he follow your old path?"
