I Dragged My Fiance's Uncle off the Altar-Chapter 7

Say That Again

Now, the Cheng family did not let Cheng Xingyang break off the engagement with her because they liked her title as the Top Scorer of the National College Entrance Examination, as well as her expertise as a finance graduate to help Cheng Xingyang quickly gain a foothold in Cheng Corporation Group. Xing Shu and Cheng Xingyang had been engaged for more than 10 years. Throughout their engagement, Xing Shu had never been unfaithful to Cheng Xingyang and spent all her energy on him. In the end, how did Cheng Xingyang repay her? He hooked up with Xing Linlin and even belittled Xing Shu by caviling that she was boring like an emotionless machine..

The Cheng family treated her like a tool to be utilized fully. To Cheng Xingyang, she was a money-grubber who climbed up the social ladder; she was not even a woman in his eyes. Well, she was no meek lamb or saint and would not await her fate in resignation.

“You still dare to talk about the past? This marriage is the worst decision I’ve ever made in my life! It disgusts me to the core!” Cheng Xingyang lashed out viciously, sharpening each word into a knife that pierced her heart.

Xing Shu’s heart ached. She looked forward to Cheng Xingyang’s reaction when he found out about her and Cheng Lang. She yearned to see him lose it. She pursed her lips and said to Cheng Xingyang, “Let go. This is not the place to discuss the past.”

Cheng Xingyang was also afraid that Cheng Lang would suddenly come out of the conference room. Thinking that he had cut Xing Shu off at the knees, he snorted and let go of her. “My mother told you to spy on me and you actually think so highly of yourself.”

Xing Shu rubbed her wrist. She really wanted to punch Cheng Xingyang’s narcissistic face.

Xing Shu said, “Remember to transfer the deed of the villa to my name as soon as possible.”

Cheng Xingyang’s eyes widened. “What did you say? F*cking say that again?!”

Xing Shu looked up. “Sure, I can say it twice if you like. Young Uncle said that the villa was a gift from him to me, so please ask Xing Linlin to move out as soon as possible.”

“You!” Cheng Xingyang had never seen Xing Shu like this before. He gritted his teeth in anger. “You’re really a money-grubber!”

Xing Shu didn’t refute.

Who did not love money in this world? Why should Xing Linlin benefit from a villa worth 20 million yuan?

She left Cheng Xingyang gritting his teeth in anger and returned to the office in high spirits.

The office was very noisy. As soon as Xing Shu appeared, she became the focal point of everyone. Xing Shu frowned and vaguely heard the words ‘you’… Her relationship with Cheng Xingyang had been exposed? She looked at Hu Jie, who lowered her head apologetically. “I’m sorry, Xing Shu. I didn’t do it on purpose. I spoke a little too loudly just now and they heard me…”

Cheng Xingyang—who was a step behind—tugged at his tie impatiently. “So what if you know? Very soon, it won’t be.” He did not spare a thought for Xing Shu’s pride at all in front of so many people.

Immediately, Xing Shu received many looks of sympathy—as per her wish.

After work, the Xing family sent a car to pick Xing Shu up. “Miss, Madam would like you to go home.” Obviously, Cheng Xingyang’s mother—Chen Ru—must have called her family.

When Xing Shu arrived at the Xing residence, she heard Xing Linlin’s voice emanating from within even before she entered the house. “Aunt, the tea you made is really delicious. Xing Shu and Xingyang have been praising your skills.”

Xing Shu’s mother—Wu Minxia said, “Linlin, you haven’t been back for a long time. I thought you and Xing Shu had grown apart. Did you receive the gift I sent you the other time?”

Xing Linlin replied, “Aunt, that gift is too expensive. I can’t accept it.”

Wu Minxia said, “It’s for you; accept it. There’s no need to stand on ceremony with me.”

As Xing Shu quietly changed her shoes at the entrance, she saw Wu Minxia gently massaging Xing Linlin’s wrist. If one did not know better, they would think that they were mother and daughter.

Wu Minxia looked at Xing Shu with a smile. “Xing Shu, Linlin has been waiting for you here for a long time. Why are you only back now? Did you receive Madam Chen’s call? Xingyang is still young and hasn’t settled down yet. You should give in to him and stop throwing tantrums.”

Xing Shu put down her bag and met Xing Linlin’s gaze. Xing Linlin smiled shyly and sat awkwardly. “Xing Shu, are you still angry with me? I’m sorry. I’ve been sick for the past half a month. I don’t have any other friends; that’s why I called Xingyang.”

Wu Minxia was displeased when she heard this. She grabbed Xing Linlin’s hand and looked at her lovingly. “How did you get sick? You have to take good care of yourself. Xingyang has been a young master since he was young; he doesn’t know how to take care of others. If you need anything next time, just call Xing Shu. If not, I’ll get our nanny to take care of you.”
