Chapter 158
Chen Pingrui is dead, the Chen family has lost its cornerstone, and without any friends or allies, the house is bound to collapse, and no one can withstand it. Zhang Xiayang has cleaned up Liu Laogou for the Chen family, doing his last bit of duty, but the responsibility now falls entirely on Ye Tian, whose potential was recognized by Chen Pingrui and who has also been tested by time. Nobody can predict what turn of events this ordinary kid will cause. Whether he can carry the Chen family’s banner depends on his fate and fortune.
Zheng Xinru sat on the couch in the living room, scrutinizing the young man standing in front of her. The European-origin Huilaien sofa didn’t relax her body in the slightest. As Chen Pingrui’s formally-married wife, she had the responsibility to carry on the Chen family, for Chen Pingrui, and for herself.
Who knows how many men fantasize about having the Chen family’s women beneath them.
"Ye Tian?"
"Yes."
Zheng Xinru put down the teacup in her hand, sat upright on the sofa looking at him, her face calm, without a ripple, smoothing the wrinkles on her skirt, picking off some tiny threads, before looking up at Ye Tian again, "My name is Zheng Xinru, you can call me Mrs. Chen or Sister Zheng if you like."
"Alright, Mrs. Chen."
"Mhm. Sit."
