CH 211

After Zhang and her family left, Mother Zheng’s mood did not improve. The most distressing thing was that her son was even told off by an outsider; she wanted to teach that junior a deeper lesson. Neither Mama Wang nor Papa Wang knew what Wang Ningxiang had said. When she saw Mother Zheng angry as she was, she comforted her and asked her what Wang Ningxiang had said.

As soon as Wang Cheng heard her, he wanted to stop her. Mama Wang knew the truth, and all the others for Papa Wang were savvy. If he acted too much, wouldn’t that mean that he had a desire to conceal this? While he was hesitating, Mother Zheng said it. It was only them here, so there was nothing to say. Mama Wang froze as soon as she heard it, and subconsciously gave Wang Cheng a look.

Wang Cheng touched his nose, smiled awkwardly, and explained, "This incident actually has a little to do with some ‘exposing’ picture. Someone was targeting a friend of mine and I was accidentally implicated, but it was later clarified."

Mother Zheng wanted to say that he should stay further away from those relatives of the Wang family, when Father Zheng suddenly gave her a pat on the back. It took a moment for Mother Zheng to react - Wang Cheng's adoptive parents were also from the Wang family, so it was not very good to say that.

"The person who exposed my second brother seemed to be Wang Xiaoyan, the wife of our elder cousin, right? It was also her who had spread the story. If it weren’t for my second brother's life overshadowing the incident, I don't know what would have happened." Wang Ziyu didn't learn of these things until she returned. If she was present, she wouldn't have let Wang Xiaoyan get the better of him.

When Wang Cheng heard what Xiao Yu said, he was a little stunned. Did Xiao Yu actually hear of those words that night? He secretly looked at Mama Wang. Mama Wang just happened to look over, but quickly glanced away; Mama Wang did not talk to Xiao Yu.

"Who is this Wang Xiaoyan?" Mother Zheng asked.

"The daughter of a small upstart. However, this is no longer the case. After their Wang family’s bankruptcy, Wang Ningkai's company also became involved. Now they are not doing as well before. Wang Xiaoyan doesn't want to go back to her family and suffer. Now she lives in the Guan’s Village with Wang Ningkai, but her life in the Wang family is not easy. However, I heard that she became pregnant a while ago." This answer came from Wang Ning’an. Although he was not in the Guan’s Village, he became clear about everything in the past few days after his return.

What Wang Ning’an knew was more detailed than what Wang Cheng had known. No wonder Wang Xiaoyan was so careful about covering her stomach that day.

Mother Zheng did not speak, her expression seeming to be thinking about something.

Wang Cheng said, "It's been so long. Since she's not doing well, we have nothing to care about now."

It felt a little like that, knowing that she was having a bad time, they felt a bit relieved.

Everyone suddenly laughed.

Time flew by. Father Wang and Mother Wang wanted Father and Mother Zheng to leave after dinner, but the time did not allow it. If they left after dinner, they would arrive in the Imperial Capital early in the morning. Both of them were 50 years old, they couldn’t afford such tossing about. Father and Mother Zheng wanted their son’s accompaniment again, but there were many things to do for the Spring Festival. Wang Cheng would go to his grandma’s house with his mother tomorrow, so he could only go to the Imperial Capital tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow.

Before leaving, Wang Cheng received a phone call from the police station asking about the attempted robbery that morning. Because they couldn’t record their statements, they could only call to ask for some information.

This was the first time that Papa Wang and the others knew that such a dangerous thing had happened. When they heard that Wang Cheng subdued the thief, they were shocked. Fortunately, it was all okay. However, this time, they did not want Wang Cheng to send them away alone, so when he took his parents to the airport, Wang Ning'an also got in the car.

Once they arrived at the airport, they watched the reluctant Father and Mother Zheng check into security. Wang Cheng and Wang Ning'an returned to the car, where Wang Ning’an replaced him as the driver.

At first, the two brothers didn't speak. When the vehicle was leaving the airport, Wang Ning’an suddenly asked, "Are you and Mom hiding something from us?"

Wang Cheng was startled, and it took him three seconds to respond. “Elder brother, what are you talking about? I have nothing to hide from you with mom. Why do you think that?"

Wang Ning'an glanced deeply at him and said, "After the incident where Wang Ningxiang said you were gay, your interaction with our mother showed me that what she said was true, right?"

Wang Cheng gulped. "Elder brother, I think you misunderstood. The thing that Wang Ningxiang said was really false. The people in the photo exposed by Wang Xiaoyan were indeed my friend and I, but there is no unspeakable relationship between us. Someone was targeting my friend."

"What about the homosexuality part? Putting aside the question of the photo, she said that you are homosexual. Is this true?" Wang Ning’an was telling Wang Cheng that he was not such a fool, which Wang Cheng had always known.

Prehistoric crisis! [?]

"Elder brother, are you saying that I'm gay, and our mother knows about it?"

Wang Cheng smirked, and then acted, saying: "If Mom really knew of this, do you think she would still be so peaceful? You also know our mother’s personality, she certainly wouldn’t pretend to know nothing."

Wang Ning'an stared straight ahead.

Just when Wang Cheng thought he would agree with what he said, he suddenly added, "That's why our mother let you go on a blind date, am I right?"

The smile on Wang Cheng's face froze.

"You don't have to conceal it from me. I have heard from Third Aunt Guan that when our mother asked you to go on a blind date, before you went on the blind date, you had a big fight with our mother. What kind of person is Mom? She wouldn’t force you to go on a blind date for no reason, and she isn’t so anxious. This can be the only explanation: she found that you are gay, and was eager to correct your sexuality."

Wang Cheng didn't expect to be found out so soon. He gave up explaining: "What else do you know?"

Wang Ning'an thought for a while, and said, "Is the man with whom you associate, Chu Yifeng?"

Wang Cheng knelt in an instant. He was fully convinced. "How did you guess it was him?"

"You don't know many people, and he is the most suitable one. Does Mom know it is him?"

Wang Cheng nodded, "Mom knew it was him from the beginning."

Wang Ning'an laughed. "To persuade the hardest person in your family, you have a lot of skill."

Mama Wang's attitude was obviously no longer opposed to them, otherwise she would not have frowned to her younger son earlier.

"Brother, are you disgusted by homosexuality?" Wang Cheng carefully looked at his face. His biggest wish now was that his family could accept the fact that he and Chu Yifeng were together. To accept homosexuality was not necessary, because he felt that he might not like any other men beside Chu Yifeng.

"Are you afraid of my opposition?" Wang Ning’an smiled.

When Wang Cheng looked at him smiling, he felt that he should pass. "You are my elder brother, and I certainly hope to get your approval."

Wang Ning'an said, "Anyway, this is your choice. As long as you feel that it is good, your brother respects your choice. However, the biggest problem you’re facing now is the Zheng and Zhou families, and the Chu family. I hope that they all agree to you two, but I am afraid it will be difficult."

"I know, take two steps forward and one step back." After returning home, Wang Cheng told his mother about this incident. However, his mother was not particularly surprised, though she was relieved that her older son did not discriminate against her younger son’s sexual orientation.

The next day, Wang Cheng and his family took the fragrant pig to his grandma’s house as a guest. The house was very lively, but not everyone was there. Wang Cheng's second aunt was accompanying her husband and son to her in-law's house for the New Year, and they had to come another time.

His first aunt, second uncle, and third aunt gave red packets to Wang Cheng and his siblings, but they all confiscated them. Instead, Wang Cheng and Wang Ning'an gave them red envelopes. Compared to them, the ones who received the most red envelopes were Guan Jiahe and the twins, who were very cute. However, the most funny thing was that the fragrant pig also got a red envelope. When the red envelope was handed over, his second aunt roped a red string through the red envelope to hang it around the fragrant pig’s neck.

When they were about to eat, the brothers Wang Cheng and Wang Ning'an each brought a red envelope to their grandparents. When they found that the red envelope was very thick, both their grandma and grandpa did not want to accept it.

The big family needed two tables for everyone to have a seat. The meal was prepared by Mama Wang and his first aunt. Only those two had inherited the cooking skills of his grandma, so they were in charge of the New Year each year. His second and third aunts were not allowed to go in and help. This year, his first aunt bought the ingredients, which were very rich.

After eating, his first and third aunts took the initiative to wash the dishes, while everyone else was chatting in the lobby.

Wang Ning'an came to the kitchen.

"Why did Ning’an come here?" His first aunt asked when she saw him.

Wang Ning'an said: "Auntie, this is the case. I know an expert in brain science who is very authoritative in the Imperial Capital. I told him about my big cousin. The other party said that he would need to have a look at my big cousin to be sure, so I came to ask for you to let me know your opinion. If you’d like, I can take my big cousin to the expert when I return to the Imperial Capital after the Spring Festival."

His first aunt was stunned, and the bowl in her hand almost fell back to the sink. "You, is what you are saying the truth?"

Wang Ning'an nodded, "It's true. It’s a bit difficult to make an appointment with that expert, but I have been in contact with him for some things, and the other party said that I can contact him at any time. As long as you give a nod, I can make another appointment with him."

"This is a good thing, elder sister." His third aunt was also happy for her elder sister. If it worked, her eldest nephew would not have to go on like this in the future.

His first aunt took off her gloves and held Wang Ning'an's hand gratefully. Tears accumulated in the corners of her eyes. "Ning’an, thank you so much. Your aunt doesn't know how to repay you."

"What is repayment to family?"

Afterwards, his aunt came out and told everyone the good news; He Ping had a chance to heal. Everyone was happy for the aunt and congratulated her.
