1638 The Truth Behind Liling’s Death?
Compared with the Yuan woman, Feng Yuanlin naturally trusted Shuyan.
But since nothing would happen to Yang Ji, why did that woman deliberately scare everyone earlier?
Feng Yuanlin was really curious. “Shuyan, what on earth could be happening between that woman and Yang Ji? Will that kid really be fine?”
“She doesn’t mean well!” Chi Shuyan changed the subject and continued, “That woman wouldn’t dare attack Yang Ji in front of so many people!”
Feng Yuanlin relaxed when he heard Shuyan’s words. Not long after, he saw Yang Ji come out of the cafe with an ugly expression. The conversation probably hadn’t been pleasant. Everyone else followed him out, including Yuan Yuan. At that moment, the woman’s face was black and very unsightly. She looked at Yang Ji as if she wanted to swallow him alive. She seemed unwilling to give up, and wanted to call Yang Ji over after they exited the cafe.
Unfortunately, Yang Ji couldn’t be bothered with her at all. Yuan Yuan could only grit her teeth in anger and stare hatefully at Yang Ji’s back with a cold face. She didn’t even take the initiative to make nice with Xia Mingcheng. She turned around, got into a car with Huang Chong and Chai Qing, and left, leaving Wang Jinyang, Yi Junzhong, Li Xiaoyan, and Xia Mingcheng looking at each other in confusion.
Wang Jinyang was very curious and couldn’t help but ask Yang Ji, “Yang Ji, what on earth did Yuan Yuan tell you just now? By the way, did she tell you the specifics of her prediction?” At the mention of this, Wang Jinyang was very nervous and worried. Afraid that Yang Ji would offend Yuan Yuan, he even advised Yang Ji earnestly to treat Yuan Yuan better and not offend her.
Yang Ji didn’t pay much attention to Wang Jinyang’s words. Ever since he found out that Liling’s death was related to Yuan Yuan, he couldn’t treat her normally anymore. Thinking of Liling, he couldn’t help but look at Xia Mingcheng with a complicated expression.
Yang Ji only took one more look at Xia Mingcheng before he walked in Master Chi’s direction. Xia Mingcheng keenly sensed Yang Ji’s gaze, and his eyes were filled with utter confusion.
Speaking of which, Xia Mingcheng’s relationship with Yang Ji had still been alright before Liling died, but after Liling’s death, Xia Mingcheng felt Yang Ji distancing himself from him. He wasn’t a fool, and had a vague idea why. However, some things couldn’t be said outright, as it would only be bad for everyone. Besides, something had already happened to Liling, so there was no need to hash things out too clearly
Xia Mingcheng didn’t stay long. He found an excuse to leave first.
Before he left, he heard a familiar voice coming from afar. “Mr. Xia, the Peach Blossom Doom is approaching. I hope you do your best and stay true to your heart. Remember this when your heart wavers and you decide to go along with your parents pressuring you to marry.”
Xia Mingcheng was stupefied when he suddenly heard this, along with Wang Jinyang, Yi Junzhong, Li Xiaoyan and Yang Ji. They racked their brains as they tried to figure out what Master Chi was saying.
The next second, Xia Mingcheng’s phone suddenly rang. He subconsciously took out his phone and picked up the call, and Mother Xia’s voice rang out. “Mingcheng, I really think Yuan Yuan is a good child. How about you spend more time with her and get to know her better?”
After listening to his mother, Xia Mingcheng looked at the young lady in front of him in a daze. How could her divination be so accurate?
Wait, was the rotten peach blossom which the Master had mentioned before Yuan Yuan?
Xia Mingcheng was stupefied as he stared blankly at the young lady in front of him.
When Wang Jinyang, Yi Junzhong, Li Xiaoyan and Yang Ji saw Xia Mingcheng’s stunned expression, they immediately understood that Master Chi had indeed been spot-on in her divination. The call Xia Mingcheng had just received was most likely from the Xia family urging him to get married!
Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong couldn’t believe it, and immediately put their ears next to Xia Mingcheng’s phone. When they heard Mother Xia’s constant urging for Xia Mingcheng to get married, Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong were shocked and excited. “Master Chi, you’re actually so godly?”
“Mingcheng’s mother is really urging you to get married, and it’s to Yuan Yuan? What the hell? When did you become so close with Yuan Yuan? You’ve actually reached the point of matchmaking?”
As soon as Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong said that, Yang Ji and Li Xiaoyan’s faces immediately changed. Master Chi’s incomparably accurate divination aside, they were even more shocked at Xia Mingcheng and Yuan Yuan being together. Their faces changed drastically and were very unsightly. The veins on the back of Yang Ji’s hands bulged as he stared fixedly at Xia Mingcheng.
Even Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong felt a little embarrassed, mainly because Yuan Yuan’s identity was too awkward and sensitive. After all, she was Mingcheng’s ex-girlfriend’s best friend.
Mingcheng actually got together with Yuan Yuan?
Fortunately, Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong’s attention was mostly on Master Chi’s incomparably accurate divination, and the awkwardness lessened a little.
Mother Xia didn’t hear her son’s reply and thought that he was deliberately staying silent in refusal. Mother Xia was now especially satisfied with her future daughter-in-law, Yuan Yuan. When something happened to Father Xia’s business, Yuan Yuan had given him some pointers, and Father Xia’s business immediately recovered. How could Mother Xia not be satisfied with such a capable daughter-in-law?
Seeing that Xia Mingcheng didn’t speak, Mother Xia simply said, “Mingcheng, I’ll be honest with you: I think of only Yuan Yuan as my Xia family’s daughter-in-law. There can be no other woman.
“Mingcheng, can you listen to me for once? Marriage isn’t about falling in love; it’s not just about whether you like her or not. Moreover, even if the two of you don’t have feelings now, you can still cultivate them in the future. I’ve seen many people in my life, so I definitely can’t be wrong about my daughter-in-law. Yuan Yuan will be a good wife and a good mother. Mingcheng, listen to me and try spending some time with Yuan Yuan first. How about it?”
Xia Mingcheng’s head hurt when his mother urged him to get married, and it also hurt when Wang Jinyang and the others looked at him. Wang Jinyang and the others had definitely misunderstood.
Xia Mingcheng immediately said, “Mom, I still have something urgent to attend to. Let’s talk when we get home!”
As soon as Xia Mingcheng hung up, no one expected Yang Ji to suddenly rush over and punch him in the face. He cursed, “Xia Mingcheng, are you letting Liling down? Liling just died, and you’re already in a hurry to get together with her best friend and get married? I’ll f*cking kill you, you scumbag!”
Xia Mingcheng was caught off guard and staggered back a few steps from the punch. Li Xiaoyan screamed. Fortunately, Wang Jinyang and the others reacted quickly and immediately stepped in. It took them a long time to pull Yang Ji away.
Yang Ji was probably too angry as he kept struggling. Unfortunately, he was too far away and couldn’t kick Xia Mingcheng. Yang Ji was so angry that the veins on his forehead throbbed. He kept cursing at Xia Mingcheng.
Chi Shuyan didn’t expect Yang Ji to be so impulsive as to hit the other person just like that. At that moment, people were staring in their direction. She could only walk over and immediately stop the fight and have Yang Ji calm down.
How could Yang Ji remain calm at the thought that Xia Mingcheng would get together with that Yuan woman? He couldn’t stand it anymore and even directly exposed Yuan Yuan for harming Liling. He cursed angrily, “Liling was killed by that Yuan woman. How the hell can you still get together with her? Are you letting Liling down?
As soon as Yang Ji said that, everyone was stupefied, especially Xia Mingcheng. His face changed drastically, like a bolt from the blue, and he looked incredulous. It was the same for the others.
Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong were stupefied, thinking that they had misheard, when they heard Yang Ji mock and curse Xia Mingcheng. “If it wasn’t for you, how could Liling have died? That Yuan woman took a fancy to you and wanted to harm Yuan Yuan. Xia, if you dare marry that Yuan woman in this life, Liling won’t let you off, and neither will I!”
Chi Shuyan’s head hurt at Yang Ji’s revelation. It could only be said that she had underestimated Yang Ji’s crush on Yan Liling. She didn’t expect him to suddenly explode.
Feng Yuanlin also had a headache from this scene.
As for Wang Jinyang and Yi Junzhong, their lips trembled a few times. They stuttered and hurriedly urged Yang Ji, “Yang Ji, you… you can’t talk nonsense! Let’s listen to Mingcheng’s explanation. This… this is definitely a misunderstanding!”
This misunderstanding had simply added fuel to the fire. Yang Ji was so angry that his neck turned red as he cursed Xia Mingcheng furiously. Xia Mingcheng didn’t move for a long while. His lips trembled a few times, and his body gradually shook hard. Who knew if it was because of the blow from Yang Ji’s words, but his face turned white. After a while, Xia Mingcheng spat out with difficulty, “What… did you say? What do you mean?”
