Cheating Marriage - C171
“Dad, Mom was bewitched by those people.” Cheng Ruojun said, “I know who my mother is.”
Cheng Ruixuan’s words could be described as heartbreaking. I understand that ever since Xia Ze came back, Cheng Ruojun had completely lost his favor with him.
At that moment, a scary thought suddenly went through my mind. Maybe Cheng Ruixuan knew from the start that the child in that woman’s stomach wasn’t his.
I understand how much a man values the successor. Even ordinary men want a bunch of sons, let alone a rich and powerful one like Cheng Ruixuan. No wonder he was so abnormal, no wonder he could educate such a violent person like Cheng Ruojun.
But I do admire Du Lirong, she isn’t like the other noble wives, I have seen the kind that find people to keep an eye on their husbands everyday, afraid that some woman would get pregnant. Du Lirong was very smart, and immediately started from the roots. That way, no matter how many tricks the woman beside Cheng Ruixuan tried, she wouldn’t be able to do anything against a man who couldn’t get others pregnant.
When I thought here, I almost laughed out loud, but I should be serious now, so as to not make Du Lirong hate me more, but since Du Lirong has become like this, maybe I should push her a little so that she will never be able to recover.
It’s already very late now. Cheng Ruojun and I had originally planned to eat dinner, but unfortunately, it’s already midnight time.
Just as the room was in silence, I suddenly heard the door open, and I heard the servant outside calling for young master, and other than Cheng Ruojun, the only other young master in this house was Xia Ze.
I couldn’t help but look towards the door, but I was worried that Cheng Ruojun would discover me.
As expected, Xia Ze walked in quickly. He was wearing a grey jacket, his hair was a little messy, and he looked to be very tired.
The moment he entered the door, he embraced Cheng Ruixuan and hung his arm on Cheng Ruixuan’s body. On the other hand, Cheng Ruixuan obviously liked what he did, hence he immediately started laughing.
“Dad, what’s wrong?” Xia Ze said, “I’m really tired at work today, I don’t know if there will be any midnight snacks.”
Cheng Ruixuan smiled and patted Xia Ze’s shoulder, “Yes.” When he looked at Cheng Ruojun previously, he definitely did not reveal such an expression.
I couldn’t help but glance at Cheng Ruojun. I noticed that Cheng Ruojun was staring at his father, his gaze frozen, as if he was thinking about something. When he looked at Cheng Ruixuan, his eyes were very cold.
“What’s going on?” Xia Ze laughed and said, “Brother, you’re here too.”
Cheng Ruojun bit the corner of his mouth and did not say a word.
Xia Ze swept his eyes across the room, his gaze did not stop at the porcelain fragments on the ground, but instead landed on Du Lirong’s body.
I can’t figure out his emotions. I feel that at this moment, he is even more terrifying than the furious Cheng Ruojun, but I also feel lucky that my relationship with Xia Ze is very close.
“Auntie, why are you sitting there?” Xia Ze walked to Du Lirong’s side and extended his hand out. He seemed to want to pull Du Lirong up, his expression was friendly and he looked like an innocent teenager.
Du Lirong seemed to not be used to Xia Ze’s gaze on her. She raised her head and glanced at Xia Ze, then ignored his extended arm and stood up.
However, her actions caused Cheng Ruixuan’s face to darken. He snorted and said, “Cheng Ruojun, move back here right now and look after your mother.”
Cheng Ruojun did not say anything and only nodded.
He did not look at his father, but turned to look at Du Lirong. Du Lirong also looked at him, their eyes seemed to hide something, I think they are planning to do something.
“Come, let’s go out.” Cheng Ruixuan pulled Xia Ze and said with a smile on his face, he had never revealed such an expression towards Cheng Ruojun before.
Cheng Ruojun stared at them, and just at that moment, I suddenly saw a hint of hatred flash past Cheng Ruojun’s eyes, I could not help but be shocked, I understood his gaze, because that look had also appeared in my eyes before.
Cheng Ruojun had been holding onto my hand the entire time, and now his hand is tightening.
Xia Ze was pulled out, and now there’s only the three of us left in the room.
“Let’s eat.” His voice sounded extremely exhausted. In fact, Cheng Ruojun and I can be considered people who grew up in the same environment as each other.
I have already completely broken away from the shackles of my family, but Cheng Ruojun was entangled with his family due to the matter of his family property. No matter how much he hated his parents, he still hoped to gain their recognition.
The three of us sat at the table. The table was large and filled with all kinds of delicacies, but none of us was in the mood to eat.
“Don’t do that anymore.” Cheng Ruojun said as he took a bite of the steak that was chopped into pieces.
Du Lirong hadn’t even eaten a mouthful of food, she had only drunk one cup after another. She looked to be in despair, and I heard her say, “Your father can raise girls outside, but I can’t?”
She was really a bit drunk, and she got drunk really quickly.
Cheng Ruojun glanced at her and said, “In short, before his anger is gone, you should stay at home.”
Du Lirong snorted and did not say a word.
I slowly ate the food on the plate. Even a strong woman like Du Lirong would be bound by tradition, her suffering was just a cycle of reincarnation.
I will not, I will leave Cheng Ruojun, no matter the cost.
“Are you staying here today?” Du Lirong asked Cheng Ruojun.
Cheng Ruojun looked at her and nodded.
“It’s still about the children.” Du Lirong said, “I know that you are not willing to listen to me talk about this, but now that you have a child, maybe your father will be able to return to being with you …”
“I don’t want to hear it.” Cheng Ruojun said as he threw his knife and fork on the plate.
