Chapter 778: Chapter 776 Thinking of This_1

She was already in a difficult position at home, and if she stayed out all night again, who knew what trouble would arise.

"I don’t want to go home, it’s definitely not peaceful there right now. I don’t want to listen to them arguing. Besides, if my opportunistic dad finds out I was with you tonight, he would be so happy he might have a stroke!" Cheng Youyou couldn’t help but snort with laughter, her eyes filled with irony.

Lu Yichuan patted her head as if to soothe her, "Then stay, I’ll go home with you tomorrow."

"Mhm."

After her hair was dry, Lu Yichuan lay down next to the girl.

With his movement onto the bed, Cheng Youyou instantly felt the mattress dip and a wave of warmth enveloped her as his long arms held her tightly.

His body temperature was high, scorching to the touch.

Cheng Youyou was no child, and even if she hadn’t eaten pork, she had seen pigs run—how could she not understand what was going on? She nestled in his arms, daring not to move, afraid of setting him off.

Seeing how stiff she was, Lu Yichuan couldn’t help but chuckle softly, teasing her, "Don’t be so tense, relax a little. Otherwise, you’re going to wake up with sore muscles after sleeping like this all night."

Really, was she treating him like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment?

Cheng Youyou felt awkward and finally dared to move, adjusting herself into a comfortable sleeping position.

While they slept comfortably, the Cheng Family was in total chaos.

After dragging Cheng Feifei back home, Mr. Cheng threw her on the ground like trash and pointed at her nose, cursing loudly, "You shameless thing, how dare you seduce your own brother-in-law? Do you have no shame left?"

"It’s bad enough that you seduced someone, but you even let someone take evidence of it. You’re really stupid!" Mr. Cheng cursed, furious and disappointed.

Which meant he didn’t mind her seducing her prospective brother-in-law, he just hated that she hadn’t covered her tracks.

Mr. Cheng continued berating, "All that aside, you even had the audacity to throw dirt on Mr. Xue, claiming that he seduced you first and that he only wanted to engage your sister for her kidneys and money. Where would your sister get any money from, and kidneys—what does he need those for when he’s got his own!"

"Do you realize, your words have ruined the relationship between our two families!"

Mr. Cheng’s face contorted with grief and rage; he seemed as if he wanted to strangle her.

Humiliated, Cheng Feifei covered her face and began wailing tearfully, crying heartbreakingly, "Dad, what I said is the truth. It was Mr. Xue himself who told me about the inheritance left to my sister by her grandfather, and he mentioned how my sister’s kidneys were a match for his sister’s."

"Didn’t the recordings blow up online? If you don’t believe me, then go check the news."

"And he’s pushing all the blame on me. If he can be so heartless, why can’t I be ruthless?" Cheng Feifei’s tears fell like broken pearls.

She was the apple of Mr. Cheng’s eye; he was both distressed and angry, sighing heavily, "Feifei, Dad knows you’ve been wronged, but no matter what, you shouldn’t be the one to disclose the truth. Now the Xue Family doesn’t know how they will make things difficult for the Cheng Family."

"Our Cheng Family is in for a disaster!" Mr. Cheng couldn’t help but get a headache at the thought of the Xue Family taking revenge against them in the business world, which made his anger surge again.

"This is all thanks to your rebellious actions!"

"Master!" wept Madam Zhao, rushing over tearfully, "Master, you can’t blame Feifei for this. She’s also a victim!"

"The one to blame is the person who switched out the video disk!" Madam Zhao pointed out the crux of the matter.

At the mention of this, Mr. Cheng stomped his foot in rage, his hair standing on end with fury, "If I find out who switched the disk, I’ll make sure they’re dead!"

If not for this mishap, the Cheng and Xue families would have been linked by marriage.

Who knows how many benefits they could have received in the future.

But now it’s all ruined, completely ruined!

They’ve gone from almost becoming in-laws to becoming enemies!

Mr. Cheng’s heart was bleeding.

As for Cheng Youyou being tricked out of her money and having her kidney stolen, that wasn’t even within his range of concerns.

Tears blurred her vision as Cheng Feifei cried, "Dad, my sister has always been unwilling to marry Mr. Xue, right? Do you think this could have something to do with her? Maybe she realized Mr. Xue’s true purpose of getting engaged to her, and that’s why she planned out that scene just now!"

All of this was too coincidental to not have been orchestrated—who would believe it wasn’t?

Upon hearing this, Mr. Cheng’s brow furrowed instantly, suspicion arising in his mind.

He then gritted his teeth, "If that rebellious girl really did this, I will make sure she pays!"

At these words, Madam Zhao and Cheng Feifei exchanged a glance, both seeing the triumph in each other’s eyes.

A perfect move of diverting disaster elsewhere!

"Right, how much inheritance did Cheng Youyou’s grandfather actually leave for that rebellious girl?" Mr. Cheng asked again, his eyes glittering calculatingly.

Cheng Feifei rejoiced inwardly, knowing that her father was eyeing that sum of money, and she hurriedly told him what she knew: "I’m not sure about the exact amount, but if it’s enough to interest Mr. Xue, it must be substantial!"

"That’s right, her grandfather’s family is well-off, so what he left her must be sizable," Mr. Cheng’s eyes were darting around as he calculated how he could swindle the money for himself.

Cheng Feifei also wanted that money, but there was a tricky issue with it: "I also heard from Mr. Xue that the money can only be transferred into her account after she’s engaged."

"What kind of rule is that!" Mr. Cheng exclaimed angrily, his thick eyebrows furrowing deeply; however, he soon understood and couldn’t help but scoff, "That old codger, even in death he’s guarding against me!"

He knew that the rule set by Cheng Youyou’s grandfather was to prevent him from taking the money for himself.

If Cheng Youyou was to get engaged, then even if she was willing to share the inheritance with him, her husband’s family would certainly not agree.

Such cunning foresight!

But did he really think that by doing this he would be left with no options?

Mr. Cheng’s schemes clattered loudly in his heart, vowing to cajole the money from that rebellious girl’s hands by any means necessary.

When Cheng Youyou returned the next day, she was met with an explosive barrage of accusations from Mr. Cheng: "Cheng Youyou, tell me, did you switch the engagement ceremony video disc yesterday?"

Cheng Youyou gave Mr. Cheng a cold look before turning her head to glance at Cheng Feifei, who was eagerly watching the drama unfold.

Her complexion was healthy, her cheeks rosy; it was clear that regarding the matter of seducing her soon-to-be brother-in-law, Mr. Cheng hadn’t done much to her. Even if he scolded her, he hadn’t laid a hand on her.

Thinking of this, Cheng Youyou felt chills in her heart.

If such a shameless act had been committed by herself, she likely would have been beaten to a cripple with a stick.

"You rebellious girl! I’m asking you a question! Tell me, did you do this or not?" Mr. Cheng raised his voice as he stepped forward and grabbed her collar.
