Old Mrs. ng increasingly found Yun Shifei pleasant to look at and asked about her family background, and what she was currently doing.
Upon learning that she was a university student, Old Mrs. ng was even happier.
Although the girl’s family background was ordinary, her appearance and character were good, and she was well-educated, so Old Mrs. ng was still very satisfied with Yun Shifei.
Of course, most importantly, seeing her always reminded her of Ah Zhao; when Ah Zhao left them back then, she seed to be about the sa age as Yun Shifei.
If only they hadn’t stopped her from being with that man at the ti.
Thinking about it now, Old Mrs. ng felt a pang in her heart.
After chatting for a while, Cheng Lie noticed that Yun Shifei seed a bit uncomfortable, so he said to Elder ng and Old Mrs. ng, "Grandpa, Grandma, I have sothing else to do, I’ll be leaving first."
"So soon?" Both Elder ng and Old Mrs. ng were a bit reluctant, but seeing Yun Shifei’s deanor, they understood that the young lady might be a bit shy on her first visit.
They got up to see Cheng Lie and Yun Shifei off, but Cheng Lie said to them, "No need to send us off, we can walk out ourselves."
He had visited the ng Family several tis before, and this ti shouldn’t be any different.
Elder ng and Old Mrs. ng exchanged a glance and then said to Cheng Lie, "We originally planned to have you stay for a al."
Cheng Lie smiled, "Next ti then."
Saying this, he took Yun Shifei’s hand and turned to leave.
Watching their figures, with the tall man and petite woman walking together, they seed well-matched.
Elder ng looked at Old Mrs. ng, "What do you think of the girl Xiao Lie has found?"
Old Mrs. ng could sense that Elder ng was sowhat dissatisfied.
She shook her head, "You always look down upon people’s origins, but I think they’re quite well-suited. Two young people liking each other is already quite rare."
Isn’t it nice to like each other like this? What more do you need to ask for?
Old Mrs. ng thought they mustn’t repeat past mistakes and beco the villains again.
Of course, it wouldn’t be possible to beco villains this ti.
After all, although Cheng Lie was related by blood, they hadn’t seen each other in so long; what right did they have to manage him?
Holding Yun Shifei’s hand, Cheng Lie sensed her displeasure and looked down at her, "Not happy seeing her unpunished?"
Hearing Cheng Lie’s words, Yun Shifei snorted, "Yes."
She didn’t deny it.
She had finally mustered the courage to co over, wanting to deal with Xia Yuezhen, but unexpectedly, Cheng Lie let her off so lightly.
Cheng Lie’s thin lips curved slightly, as he leaned to whisper in her ear, "Do you want to see a show then?"
Yun Shifei looked up at Cheng Lie.
Seeing her eager expression, Cheng Lie suddenly felt that Yun Shifei looked particularly adorable that way.
He reached out to ruffle her hair, "Wait and see."
They arrived at the living room, where ng Xun and his wife, as well as ng Huan, were present, except ng Jie and Xia Yuezhen.
"Uncle, Aunt, Shi Fei and I are leaving first."
"Oh, won’t you stay for a al?" ng Xun’s wife asked.
"No, thanks." Cheng Lie replied, seemingly scanning them casually, before nonchalantly asking, "By the way, where are Uncle and Aunt-in-law?"
As soon as Cheng Lie asked, ng Xun’s face darkened instantly.
This ng Jie, not only idle every day, but he also ran out during such an occasion.
As for Xia Yuezhen, usually her figure was seen often, but at this mont, she went upstairs and hasn’t co down yet.
It’s truly disgraceful.
ng Xun felt a lot of dissatisfaction towards these two people.
For people like them to have the elders give all their assets, ng Xun thought, was truly unreliable.
"Your aunt-in-law is upstairs, I’ll go call her." ng Huan said, and with that, she headed upstairs.
Cheng Lie quickly said, "No need, just wanted to say goodbye as we’re leaving."
Such a polite kid, ng Xun thought, looking at Cheng Lie, this child of his sister, only reuniting after so many years.
ng Xun had a complex feeling inside.
He had done so investigation on Cheng Lie, aware that he worked under Qin Chi Jin, developing a lot of high-tech products, a capable young man.
ng Xun himself was a successful person, naturally inclined to favor those with ambition.
This nephew, although appearing cold and distant, was successful in his career and had a good relationship with his partner.
ng Xun glanced at the hands they were holding.
Secretly nodding, he thought perhaps Cheng Lie had the potential to be molded.
Yun Shifei also sensed the elders’ gaze on Cheng Lie, like he was a clever, obedient child; who wouldn’t like such a kid?
Thinking back, she was once deceived by his obedient exterior, too.
Now, thinking it over... Yun Shifei realized Cheng Lie still had so way to go with being obedient.
ng Huan went upstairs, knocking on the door, and after a while, Xia Yuezhen ca to answer, asking, "Ah Huan, what’s up?"
"Xiao Lie is leaving, and he wanted to say goodbye to you."
Goodbye? Cheng Lie ca over every day, and she accompanied him; unexpectedly today when he left, he wanted to say goodbye.
Isn’t it possible to et again tomorrow?
Why at this mont say goodbye, especially right after she got a slap from ng Jie.
Her face was still red and swollen, barely concealed with powder applied hastily earlier, so it wasn’t too obvious now.
But she didn’t want to go downstairs.
"I see you’re not doing anything in the room... just co down." ng Huan said.
Hearing ng Huan’s words, Xia Yuezhen thought of ng Xun and his wife downstairs.
In this household, it seed Elder ng was in charge, but actually, as the eldest son, ng Xun had quite the aura of a family head.
Back then, when they coveted Elder ng’s assets, ng Xun proactively said he didn’t want them himself.
She knew it wouldn’t be wise to offend ng Xun.
For the sake of money, she couldn’t let ng Xun be displeased with her.
So she said, "Alright, let’s go."
Anyway, it was just saying goodbye to Cheng Lie, once done, she’d pretend to feel unwell and co back up.
Xia Yuezhen calculated well, following ng Huan downstairs, and upon descending, she saw Cheng Lie with Yun Shifei.
Standing together, this young couple looked remarkably dazzling.
So young and so attractive.
With what seed like a promising future.
Seeing Xia Yuezhen descend, Yun Shifei cast her a glance of contempt.
Cheng Lie sensed Yun Shifei’s anger, smiling.
He thought, she seed angrier than he, the person involved, was.
Her temper was rarely concealed, but she would try to restrain it.
Yet now she wasn’t restraining it, Cheng Lie knew she was utterly furious.
