Chapter 28

Editor: Atlas Studios

Mother Meng was always against Ji Tongtong but had only given Mother Ji a bad attitude and did not put her in a difficult situation.

But she had never thought that when she came home one day, she would see her husband sleeping with her.

Mother Ji had always dolled herself up and maintained her looks well. Moreover, she was younger than Mother Meng and even looked like sisters when she stood beside Ji Tongtong.

Mother Meng butted heads with Ji Tongtong all day and when Father Meng tried to help, he would get scolded by Mother Meng.

After some time, Father Meng naturally grew apart from Mother Meng.

Besides, Mother Ji had been living with the Meng Family, making it easier for her to be in a favorable position.

When this incident blew up, Meng Ran was also a little stunned.

His mother-in-law was together with his father? Then what would Ji Tongtong and he be?

What happened to his family?!

Mother Ji thought that Mother Meng would make a ruckus about it, but after Mother Meng calmed down for an evening, she had no intention of making a ruckus.

She just threw Ji Tongtong and her out of the house.

With such a shocking incident, Meng Ran could not protect Ji Tongtong either.

Father Meng acted like a coward and refused to show his face. He probably dared not to show his face either.

Mother Meng’s own family and the Meng Family’s businesses were closely linked so if they really fought with each other, Father Meng would not get many benefits.

Mother Ji noticed that Mother Meng usually obeyed Father Meng very well, and had never thought it would end up like that.

How could Mother Meng let Mother Ji off so easily?

Mother Meng resorted to harsh tactics and sent Meng Ran overseas. Without Meng Ran there to protect them, Ji Tongtong and Mother Ji had a tough life.

They were not short of money, but there were times when having money was useless.

In the end, both of them were forced to leave far away.

Afterward, Chuzheng heard that they had not ended up in a good state. Ji Tongtong married a wealthy man, but he died soon after they were together. She thought she could inherit his wealth, but her name had not even appeared on his will.

Mother Ji kept making use of her to seduce other men, but her luck looked to have been exhausted. No matter which man they met, they had not ended up well.

Ji Tongtong slowly had a reputation as one who brought bad luck to her husband and nobody dared to want her.

In the end, because of Mother Ji’s tyrannical ways, she committed suicide.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen was going to graduate.

Ye Chen wanted to earn money and started his own business in his second year of university. Two years had passed and he had a small achievement.

Chuzheng would throw him some stuff occasionally. After realizing she had not given, but thrown him stuff, Ye Chen felt more relaxed about receiving her stuff.

Moreover, when he needed money, she only stood at the sidelines and had no intention of helping him.

In the end, he relied on himself to solve his problems.

Although he found out she had still pulled some strings which allowed him to find an investor.

But this was nothing at all, he wanted…

“Senior Ye Chen, senior Ye Chen…”

A beautiful girl stopped Ye Chen.

“Senior Ye Chen.” The girl’s face was flushed red as she shyly walked forward. “Senior Ye Chen, I… I…I like you. Can you be my boyfriend?”

“I don’t like you.”

With that said, Ye Chen left.

The girl was stunned before she quickly stopped Ye Chen. “Senior Ye Chen, can’t you give me a chance? I really like you.”

After Ye Chen entered university, his popularity slowly increased.

The girl was the most popular girl in school. She thought that if she confronted him, Ye Chen would obediently accept her confession yet she had never thought she would get such an answer.

“I have someone I like.”

Ye Chen bypassed the girl and walked outside.

The girl furrowed her brows and grudgingly stopped him again. “I heard senior Ye Chen is in need of funding recently? I can invest…”

“Honk—”

A sharp sound rang as a blue car stopped in front.

Ye Chen raised his eyes and looked towards the car. His face had a light smile and even his eyes seemed to soften.

The girl was stunned.

Ye Chen had been in the school for so long yet no one had ever seen him smile.

Ye Chen ignored the girl and walked straight towards the car.

As the girl saw Ye Chen leaving, she stomped her foot and unwillingly clutched the hem of her shirt.

“How was it? Did you succeed?”

“Lucy, you don’t look so well?”

Her few friends came out from their hiding place and worriedly asked.

Lucy pointed at the blue car. “Whose car was it?”

“Oh my gosh, that car costs at least six million!” Her friends who knew how to differentiate goods had a shocked tone.

“Six million?” A person gasped. Could a student drive such an expensive car?

Lucy was rich as well, but her car had cost only one million dollars.

After all, they were still spending their families’ money.

“I think that the car belongs to Ji Chuzheng.”

“Ji Chuzheng?”

“Yeah. She was the one… who gave everyone in her faculty a phone. I heard not long ago, she gave everyone a computer as well… It’s a pity that I’m not in her faculty.”

“She’s so rich?”

“I heard her family is quite rich.”

That big boss had made such a big scene once university started which had a lasting impression on many. She had a lot of money and was willing to spend it. Moreover, she looked beautiful and belonged to the goddess level in the school.

“How does senior Ye Chen… know her?”

Nobody dared to speak as Lucy’s expression turned ugly.

In the car.

“Who was the girl who stopped you just now?” Chuzheng’s question made Ye Chen quite surprised.

He happily chuckled to himself and shook his head. “I don’t know her.”

Chuzheng nodded her head and did not pursue the issue.

Ye Chen waited for her to continue asking, but after a long time, she still had not spoken.

“About that…” Ye Chen looked at Chuzheng as his eyes lit up. “She said she liked me.”

“Hmm.”

Ye Chen was stunned.

Although he had expected Chuzheng’s reaction, her calm demeanor still made Ye Chen unhappy.

“She looked quite pretty.” Chuzheng added one more sentence which made Ye Chen even more depressed.

Nobody asked you if she was pretty or not.

The main point was she confessed to him!

Ye Chen looked at the girl who drove the car. Compared to the past, her looks became even more outstanding while her eyes were cold and indifferent as usual. Whenever she raised her hand, it brought about a sense of nobility which made it difficult for one to get closer.

Ye Chen sighed in his heart as having him in her heart was difficult.

She cared about nothing and was especially rich…

Chuzheng agreed to have a meal with Ye Chen, but the venue had to be decided by her.

Ye Chen

Normally, if he could save a meal, he would save it.

However…

As long as she liked it, he could still afford it.

After they finished their meal, Ye Chen proceeded to foot the bill, but was told the bill had already been settled.

He looked towards Chuzheng who walked out.

“Chuzheng, we had a deal that I’ll treat today, why did you foot the bill?” Ye Chen caught up to her.

“You treat me to the meal while I pay the money. It doesn’t contradict each other.” Chuzheng nodded her head and felt that her words made perfect sense.

‘What did she mean by it doesn’t contradict each other? Is this what a girl should do?’

‘Where was his pride as a man?’

Ye Chen wrote an IOU to her in the car.

She had never accepted money and even threatened to hit him if he returned the money so he could only give IOUs to her.

After Chuzheng sent Ye Chen back to his dormitory, she waited for him to get out of the car. But Ye Chen took his own sweet time and only got off after a while.

“Ye Chen.”

Ye Chen happily turned around.

Chuzheng waved at him and Ye Chen walked back. Chuzheng fondled his head with a serious expression. ‘It was so soft and comfortable. Let me touch it a few more times…’

Chuzheng glanced at Ye Chen’s slowly darkening expression and took back her hands in embarrassment. “Good night.”

Ye Chen was speechless. “…” It was only the afternoon, why did she say good night for!!
