Chapter 439: Good Deeds Get Good Rewards, Evil Deeds Get Evil Rewards

~9 min read 1,610 words

When Sheng Hanyu appeared at the door of the Hospital Ward, Wang Yinghao had just finished the last mouthful of soup in her bowl and shook her head gently to indicate she didn't want any more.

"Drink a little more; your body is weak, and you need to drink more nutritious food to recover quickly," Sheng Jiang urged her.

Wang Yinghao shook her head: "I can't drink any more."

"Alright, we'll eat smaller, more frequent meals."

Sheng Jiang prepared to go wash the bowl, but looked up and saw his son walk in.

Startled—"clatter," the porcelain bowl fell to the floor and shattered into several pieces.

He hurriedly went to pick them up, and the sharp porcelain shards cut his hand, with fresh blood dripping down "drip by drip."

"Oh my, your hand is cut; go get it bandaged quickly," Wang Yingzhi urged.

Sheng Hanyu turned a blind eye to him and went straight to Wang Yinghao, asking with concern: "Do you feel better?"

Sheng Jiang casually wrapped his finger with a paper towel and expressed dissatisfaction with his son's form of address: "Why are you still calling her 'Aunt'? You should call her..."

Sheng Hanyu swept an icy glare at him, and his neck shrank, causing him to shut his mouth.

This wasn't the way to be impatient.

Wang Yinghao had just escaped danger and was still recovering from a major illness; was he in such a rush to acknowledge their kinship?

And what would he do after acknowledging it?

Sheng Hanyu saw through the little schemes in his heart at a glance.

Seeing this, Wang Yinghao took over the conversation: "Mm, much better."

She signaled for Sheng Hanyu to sit and chided him: "I'm fine now, why are you in such a rush to come over? You should be resting well at home. Are you and Xuanxuan both alright? It was too risky, and it was all for me..."

The past is too painful to look back on; recalling the thrill of that night, the aunt still shuddered with fear.

It was precisely because they risked their lives to rescue her that she managed to save her own life!

Sheng Hanyu turned his head to his father and said coldly: "Get out."

"Huh? I'm here taking care of your aunt; I'm alone at home anyway, there's nothing to do..." Sheng Jiang prepared to start his 'Tang Monk' mode again.

"Get out."

Thus, Sheng Jiang dared not say another word and obediently went out.

Wang Yingzhi was dissatisfied with Sheng Hanyu's attitude, and she also let her face go cold: "You go out too; I'm tired and want to rest."

Sheng Hanyu:...

He wasn't stupid; he knew his aunt was venting for Sheng Jiang.

"Fine, then you rest, I'll go out." He stood up, preparing to leave.

The child had just arrived, and he was being chased away before his seat was even warm?

Wang Yinghao regretted it: "Hey, don't go."

"Mm."

He returned in an instant and sat back down.

The aunt chided him: "You, your heart is clearly as hot as a ball of fire, yet your face is cold as ice. I don't know who you take after."

Sheng Hanyu's personality was exactly like his grandfather's.

But Wang Yinghao was not familiar with the Sheng Family Old Master; she only knew his personality was not like her own, nor like Sheng Jiang's, and certainly not like that person's.

The two chatted casually, and inevitably, they had to mention Wang Yingzhi.

After entering the police station, Wang Yingzhi refused to admit to a single thing she had done, but the evidence was ironclad, and she simply couldn't deny it.

That woman was truly thick-skinned; seeing she couldn't deny it, she turned around and slandered her sister, claiming her sister had asked her to find a husband for her, and that selling the house was also entrusted by her sister.

Therefore, the police would be coming to collect evidence in the next two days.

The aunt asked for Sheng Hanyu's opinion.

If he wanted to let Wang Yingzhi go, she could also choose not to pursue it.

This kind-hearted woman, who had almost been killed by Wang Yingzhi, was still thinking of others.

However, she was thinking of her own son; from the time Sheng Hanyu was small until now, she had been silently sacrificing for him, swallowing her grievances and never caring about herself!

Sheng Hanyu told her not to let that woman go.

Speak the truth.

Kindness is a good quality, but kindness must also have an edge!

It depends on who it is for.

To say something heart-wrenching, if it weren't for Wang Yinghao's step-by-step concessions for her son, Wang Yingzhi wouldn't have become increasingly excessive, eventually becoming so bold as to sell her off into the mountains.

On the day Wang Yingzhi was sentenced, not a single relative went.

Because of the crimes of human trafficking and attempted acquisition of large amounts of property, she was sentenced to ten years!

Wang Yingzhi appealed in court, but the appeal was rejected, and the original verdict was upheld.

On the day Wang Yingzhi's verdict came down, her divorce decree from Sheng Jiang also arrived.

Sheng Jiang had been spineless his whole life, but this time he was finally smart for once.

He didn't even think about a divorce agreement and went straight to the court to file a lawsuit.

Sheng Jiang received his divorce certificate and regained his freedom.

The first thing he did was propose to Wang Yinghao!

Wang Yinghao did not agree.

Although both of them had each other in their hearts, their children weren't married yet; what would it look like for them to be together first?

However, she took the initiative to request a paternity test with Sheng Hanyu; since he was too embarrassed to say it, she said it herself.

The test results were as expected: the biological relationship between Wang Yinghao and Sheng Hanyu was 99.99 percent.

After receiving the paternity test results, Wang Yinghao treated everyone to a meal.

The pretext for the treat was to thank everyone for helping out a lot while she was ill.

But at the dinner table, she implored everyone not to let this matter get out.

The reason was simple: she just didn't want this matter to become a topic of public discussion.

Sheng Hanyu is a well-known figure in Jiangzhou; she did not want her son to have any flaws in his reputation or be criticized by others!

This is something Wang Yingzhi would never have thought of; the difference between a biological mother and one who is not is very clear.

Of course, there are many adoptive mothers and stepmothers in this society who are very good, it's just that those people do not include Wang Yingzhi!

She only wanted to enjoy herself, was selfish and self-interested, and even stopped at nothing to achieve her goals, and she finally received the punishment she deserved.

Justice may be late, but it will never be absent.

Everyone agreed to Wang Yinghao's proposal, even Sheng Jiang agreed.

Well, he is a person who has never had a firm opinion in his life, so it is normal for him to agree.

Sheng Jiang is even more easily swayed than Shi Yucheng; he learns good habits from good people and bad habits from bad people!

But what surprised everyone was—Sheng Hanyu did not agree.

He didn't care and was not afraid of criticism.

Anyway, there were already enough topics surrounding him, so one more didn't matter; on the contrary, his biological mother had suffered many grievances for his sake over the years, and he could not let her continue to be wronged.

Sheng Hanyu not only acknowledged his biological mother, but also held a recognition ceremony, open and aboveboard, beating drums and gongs to let the people of Jiangzhou know—Wang Yinghao is my mother, the previous one was an impostor, let them say what they want!

He made the truth of that year public, airing the family's dirty laundry.

This step was something no one had expected.

One must know that when the Sheng Family Old Master was alive, he valued family reputation and style the most; even the slightest flaw had to be desperately covered up and hidden.

Now that Sheng Hanyu was doing this, if the Old Master were still alive, he certainly would not have agreed.

However, the Old Master was no longer around, and Sheng Jiang dared not contradict his son at all, so that was how it was done.

He actually had his own considerations; there is no such thing as an airtight wall in this world, and this matter involved many people; although it hadn't spread yet, it was only a matter of time.

Knowing sooner or knowing later, it would be known sooner or later anyway.

It was better to say it oneself than to have it known through the mouths of others!

This matter was just as Sheng Hanyu had analyzed; people would discuss it for a few days and then that would be that.

After all, Wang Yingzhi's popularity in the wealthy circles was truly too poor; it was basically non-existent.

After people found out, they all sympathized with Wang Yinghao, and even more people knew that Wang Yinghao was Sheng Hanyu's biological mother; not only did no one point fingers behind her back, but they instead took the initiative to show goodwill, wanting to pull her into the circles of ladies and wives.

This was another thing that exceeded everyone's expectations.

As spring warmed and flowers bloomed, the Earth King Project of Dingsheng was completed.
