Chapter 785 Design
"She is a student sponsored by Brother Nan in Licheng, and she’s quite scheming. She even acknowledged Brother Yiyang as her godbrother," said Cheng Xining.
Cheng’s father thought carefully and did seem to recall such a matter, "Some time ago, I heard that Yiyang accepted a god-sister; so, it was her?"
"Yes," nodded Cheng Xining, her voice filled with grievance, "Relying on her beauty, she bewitched Brother Nan and with Brother Nan’s backing, she doesn’t take me seriously and even bullies me."
"Some country girl, who gave her the temerity? She must no longer wish to continue her education," Cheng’s mother was furious, ready to deal with anyone who dared to bully her daughter.
Cheng’s father understood his wife’s meaning and said, "Don’t act impulsively. Since this involves both the second uncle and He Nan, we need to discuss it thoroughly; otherwise, it wouldn’t be good for this to cause discord in the family over her."
"Your daughter has been bullied to this state, and you still want to be a shrinking turtle?" Cheng’s mother thought her husband was being cowardly; she didn’t believe that if she intervened and stopped Shen Mianmian from going to school, the He Family and her second brother would trouble her over such a girl.
"What kind of talk is that?" Cheng’s father’s complexion darkened, showing traces of anger.
However, Cheng Xining suddenly seemed to become sensible and stopped crying, "Dad, Brother Nan is just bewitched by her, and so is Brother Yiyang. She’s nothing but a vixen, but it’s also not good for this to cause a rift between our three families over her."
