Chapter 271: Helpless and Drifting Away
Chapter 271: Helpless and Drifting Away
The second sister Cheng Zhirou watched the live broadcast of the engagement banquet at Kyoto Hotel with mixed feelings. She said in a trembling voice: "Xiaoye is engaged to Jiang Mian, which means that we are getting further and further away from Xiaoye."
When Cheng's mother heard Cheng Zhirou's heartfelt sigh, her face turned pale: "Zhirou, don't talk nonsense."
Cheng Zhirou subconsciously responded: "I don't have any..."
However, before Cheng Zhirou could finish her words, Cheng Shiyan pulled her aside and said to her in a low voice, "Sister, Mom's mental state has been severely suppressed. Let's not say anything that might irritate her."
"Mom, third sister, should we tell Dad and eldest sister and attend Xiaoye and Jiang Mian's engagement party?" Cheng Zhirou spoke instinctively.
However, as soon as her words fell into the ears of Cheng's mother and Cheng Shiyan, the ward fell into a long and strange silence.
After a long time, Cheng's mother called Cheng's father who was busy at the company: "Xiaoye is engaged today. Do you and Xiaowei know about it?"
The person on the other end of the phone paused for several seconds before saying helplessly, "I know. The news has already reached me. After all, this news has been on the hot search headlines on Weibo."
Mother Cheng's eyes were red as she spoke: "Then should we all go to Xiaoye's engagement party in good order? It would be unreasonable for us not to attend such an important event in his life."
When Father Cheng heard Mother Cheng's unrealistic words, he felt a headache, "I can't go. I've already inquired, and you need an invitation to enter the engagement party. What's more, the invitations have already been distributed to the invited guests before the engagement party started."
He didn't say it directly, but Cheng's mother understood what Cheng's father meant, "You mean, Xiaoye didn't send us an invitation, so our whole family can't attend Xiaoye's engagement party?"
"Yes." Father Cheng answered in a listless tone.
Mother Cheng put down her phone with great sadness, "Okay, I understand."
Outside the Kyoto Hotel, Cheng Fenghao, who had just been released from prison, heard the sad news that Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian were engaged.
He wore a mask that concealed the scars on his face except for his eyes and forehead.
Cheng Fenghao recalled everything that happened during this period. He was beaten by Cheng Ye more than once, causing his handsome face to be disfigured. It is estimated that it will be difficult to recover through plastic surgery in this lifetime.
Looking at the bustling crowds and reporters coming and going, they were all happily celebrating Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian's engagement today, which can be said to be a double harvest of love and career.
What about me? I have been to jail many times, ridiculed by netizens, and have been exposed to scandals. I have been kicked out of the house by the Cheng family. The one who used to like me, Xi Yan, now has a special liking for Cheng Ye.
Comparing his own miserable situation, Cheng Fenghao's eyes were full of resentment. He couldn't bear to see Cheng Ye living a happy and fulfilling life.
He will never be satisfied in his life if he doesn't take revenge fiercely! !
Cheng Fenghao glanced at Chu Xiyan who was standing outside the door in a daze. His eyes rolled and suddenly a plan came to his mind.
"Xiyan, wuwuwu, so you are here, I missed you so much--" Cheng Fenghao's voice had not completely ended in Chu Xiyan's ears. Hearing the familiar voice, Chu Xiyan moved away from Cheng Fenghao in annoyance and kept a relatively long distance.
Chu Xiyan was very disgusted with Cheng Fenghao's sissy character, "Cheng Fenghao, do you have any shame? Stay away from me!!"
Cheng Fenghao shed tears of grievance, "Xiyan, you avoiding me like this really makes me sad and upset."
Chu Xiyan was already in a bad mood because of Cheng Ye's engagement. Now she saw Cheng Fenghao, who had once sowed discord between Cheng Ye and herself, appear, and she became even more annoyed: "Cheng Fenghao, if you come close to me like this again, don't blame me for getting someone to beat you up."
Cheng Fenghao's face changed and he immediately fell silent.
Chu's father, Chu's mother and the old man of the Chu family had not returned yet. They saw an ugly man wearing a mask approaching Xiyan, and from the voice, it seemed to be Cheng Fenghao.
They all came over with unhappy expressions. Father Chu grabbed Cheng Fenghao's arm and threatened him, "Kneel down! You have contributed to Xiyan's internal strife!"
Cheng Fenghao was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to say something, but the bodyguard sent by the Chu family forced him to kneel down by holding his arms.
Chu Xiyan looked down at Cheng Fenghao with deep hatred in her eyes: "Cheng Fenghao, it's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could I have parted ways with Cheng Ye? How could Cheng Ye be engaged to Jiang Mian? How could the relationship between Cheng Ye and I drift apart?!"
Cheng Fenghao wanted to complain in his heart, your Chu family is not as good as the Jiang family, and you still have the nerve to blame all the faults on me.
But even though he complained, he certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to say it out loud.
Seeing that Chu's father was about to send bodyguards to beat him up, Cheng Fenghao said with snot running down his nose: "Xi Yan, I have a way to make Cheng Ye change his mind about you!"
The bodyguard was about to kick Cheng Fenghao hard in the stomach when Chu Xiyan stopped him.
Chu Xiyan frowned and asked, "Is there any way you can make Cheng Ye change his mind about me?"
Father Chu saw Cheng Fenghao's eyes rolling around, and it was obvious that he had bad intentions. He hurriedly tried to comfort him, "Xiyan, don't listen to his nonsense. How could he have good intentions?!"
Mother Chu also looked at Chu Xiyan with a worried look on her face, "Yes, my daughter, Cheng Fenghao has done so many evil things, and he has so many disgusting thoughts. How could a person of bad character be kind enough to help you?"
The old man of the Chu family warned Cheng Fenghao seriously: "If you dare to have any bad thoughts, I will not let you go."
Cheng Fenghao burst into tears: "Grandpa Chu, you really misunderstood me. I really like Xiyan, but I know that I can't compare to Cheng Ye, so I have self-awareness. Since I like Xiyan, then I definitely hope that Xiyan can gain her happiness! For Xiyan's happiness, I am willing to let go! At the same time, I am willing to help Xiyan catch up with Cheng Ye!!"
Since Cheng Fenghao and the Chu family were all outside the Kyoto Hotel, and Chu Xiyan had been engaged to Cheng Ye before, it didn't take long for their presence to attract a lot of attention.
Chu Xiyan realized that something was wrong. If Cheng Fenghao really had a way to win back Cheng Ye for her, he shouldn't make a big fuss here.
Thinking of this, she ordered her bodyguards to tie Cheng Fenghao to a private vehicle.
All the Chu family members got on the car.
The driver drove the vehicle to a corner where there were fewer people and stopped.
Chu Xiyan asked coldly: "Now tell me, what do you have in mind?"
Cheng Fenghao glanced at the other people in the car and said hesitantly, "This is not convenient for others to know."
Father Chu was furious: "Cheng Fenghao, what tricks are you playing? Why do you need to avoid us?! After all, we are Xiyan's relatives!!"
Mother Chu was also very angry: "Xiyan, let's go back quickly. You'd better stay away from people like Cheng Fenghao."
The old man of the Chu family had a cold look in his eyes. If he could not dispose of Cheng Fenghao at will, because he did not want to get involved in the muddy waters of the Cheng family, he would have thrown Cheng Fenghao out long ago!!
Chu Xiyan frowned and thought for a long time. She wanted to get Cheng Ye so much that she especially wanted to know what the method Cheng Fenghao mentioned was.
"Grandpa, Mom and Dad, why don't you go back first? Cheng Fenghao and I have something to discuss." Chu Xiyan looked at Chu's father and the others, "Don't worry, I will know my limits."
Chu's father and others wanted to continue persuading her, but seeing Chu Xiyan's expression that was eager to know, they got out of the car helplessly and took another car back.
Cheng Fenghao waited until they all left before he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was quite risky, so of course the fewer people who knew about it the better.
Chu Xiyan frowned unhappily: "Hurry up, Cheng Fenghao, if the plan you give is not feasible, I will definitely not forgive you."
Cheng Fenghao felt very uncomfortable. He thought back to when he was the pampered young master of the Cheng family, Chu Xiyan did not treat him like this.
The wall fell and everyone pushed.
He had just been verbally threatened by the Chu family, and now Chu Xiyan was threatening him again.
Cheng Fenghao's self-esteem was greatly insulted.
But it doesn’t matter, as long as this matter is done, Cheng Ye will not have any thoughts about Chu Xiyan.
He doesn't have the strength to offend Jiang Mian for the time being, but Cheng Fenghao has never given up on the position of Cheng family heir and his marriage with Chu Xiyan.
As for how to conquer Jiang Mian, we’ll have to wait until later!
Thinking of this, Cheng Fenghao said: "Xiyan, I have a bottle of medicine here."
As he said this, he took out a bottle of liquid from his pocket.
Chu Xiyan took it and frowned: "What is this?"
Cheng Fenghao smiled and said, "Xiyan, Cheng Ye is a man who, as long as you have made it a done deal with him, I believe he will not ignore you."
Thinking of this bottle of liquid, Chu Xiyan instantly understood what Cheng Fenghao meant.
Chu Xiyan subconsciously resisted: "No, if I do this, Cheng Ye will hate me regardless of whether I succeed or not."
Cheng Fenghao said temptingly: "But, Xiyan, Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian are already engaged, and there are bodyguards guarding outside the engagement party. You don't even have the qualifications to go in. In other words, you don't even have the ability to destroy it."
"If you continue to let Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian continue like this, do you want to wait until they are both married and have a grand wedding? By then, will you still feel helpless like you do now?"
Chu Xiyan's expression changed.
Seeing that she didn't say anything for a long time, Cheng Fenghao shifted his gaze to the love letter placed in the car.
The love letter was already wrinkled, but Chu Xiyan still didn't hand it to Cheng Ye.
Cheng Fenghao tried to stimulate Chu Xiyan: "Xiyan, or do you have any better ideas?"
Hearing this, Chu Xiyan couldn't help but clench her hands. She was very unwilling. She was Cheng Ye's legitimate fiancée. Why could Jiang Mian be the latecomer who came later? !
But Chu Xiyan was still a little worried, "What if I get pregnant?"
Cheng Fenghao gritted his teeth secretly, even if you are pregnant, I will find a way to abort the baby in your belly! !
His most important task now is to make Cheng Ye completely disgusted with Chu Xiyan, so that his chances will be greater.
Thinking of this, Cheng Fenghao said with a look of consideration for Chu Xiyan: "Give birth to the baby if you are pregnant! Xiyan, you have to think about it. Once you and Cheng Ye have a child, you and him will never drift apart in this life!"
Hearing this, Chu Xiyan couldn't help but put her palm on her lower abdomen. Yes, if there was a child as a bond, Cheng Ye would not ignore her.
As long as she gave birth to her and Cheng Ye's child smoothly, given Cheng Ye's personality, he would never harm his own child, so he would make concessions to her even if it was just for the child.
And there is a high probability that she will marry me for the sake of her children.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiyan nodded in agreement: "Okay. But what do you plan to do to successfully implement this?"
Seeing Chu Xiyan taking the bait, Cheng Fenghao was so excited that he quickly replied, "Xiyan, I have checked in advance. Today's engagement party will end in the evening."
"Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian should spend the night in the hotel's private room, room number is A502. I'll send Jiang Mian away and you can go over there."
Chu Xiyan felt a little strange when she heard this: "How did you find out that their private room is in A502? Besides, we can't even get into the Kyoto Hotel, so how can we implement it?"
Cheng Fenghao didn't want to say that he had sent people to apply for the service position there, so he had first-hand information.
After all, there would be no real benefit to me if Chu Xiyan knew too much about me.
Therefore, Cheng Fenghao had no choice but to say: "Xiyan, don't worry about this! Because you see the time, it's already late, and we have to sneak into the Kyoto Hotel as soon as possible, so that we can carry out our plan more smoothly."
Chu Xiyan was very anxious. Indeed, it was getting late and she couldn't delay any longer.
"Xiyan, your room will be in A501, right next to Cheng Ye and Jiang Mian's room, so you can move around at any time."
Cheng Fenghao reminded.
Although Chu Xiyan didn't know how Cheng Fenghao had arranged all this in advance, she didn't have the leisure to pay attention to these details now.
As long as the ultimate goal can be achieved, it's fine.
Chu Xiyan thought that after she became pregnant, she would definitely not tell anyone, including Cheng Ye.
Because the more people know about it, the more dangerous the baby in her belly will be, especially Jiang Mian, she must be careful about him.
She will go abroad first to avoid the limelight and give birth to the child safely and securely.
Once the child is born, she will bring the child back to China to find Cheng Ye. With the child as a bargaining chip, she believes that Cheng Ye will not abandon them.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiyan's mouth corners raised.
She looked at Cheng Fenghao, "How do we get in now?"
Cheng Fenghao made a phone call, and fifteen minutes later, a man dressed as an ordinary person came over and knocked on the car window.
Chu Xiyan noticed the man outside and immediately realized that he was sent by Cheng Fenghao, so she rolled down the car window.
The man gave Cheng Fenghao two sets of waiter clothes.
Chu Xiyan was stunned. This was the uniform worn by the waiters at Kyoto Hotel.
Cheng Fenghao waved his hand and the man left quickly.
He explained, "Xiyan, let's put on the waiter's uniform first. There will be waiters coming in and out of the Kyoto Hotel to buy food. If we wear this uniform and carry some food in our hands, we can naturally blend in."
Chu Xiyan took the women's clothing and asked in confusion: "But everyone in Beijing knows what you and I look like. Cheng Ye has specifically told the bodyguards to pay extra attention to our appearance. In this case, how can we get in?"
