Chapter 493: I'm Going All Out With You

493. Chapter 493: I'm Going All Out With You

She can give up her reputation, but she must not involve her own son.

Cheng Xianglan didn't wait for Yu to finish speaking, lunged over and pinned her to the ground, slapping her face while saying, "You're just flirting around, I'll let you defame me, let you defame me!"

It was still the first time Yu had seen Cheng Xianglan so fierce.

She was so frightened she forgot to fight back, and by the time she tried, she was no longer her opponent.

"Help! Cheng Xianglan is going to kill me…

Liang Chenggong snapped back to his senses and reached out to kick Cheng Xianglan.

Qiao Sheng didn't wait for him to touch Cheng Xianglan; he kicked him first.

Liang Chenggong failed to kick Cheng Xianglan and was instead kicked by Qiao Sheng, landing hard on the ground, angrily shouting, "You little slut…"

"You're looking for a fight!"

Yin Li had originally intended to strike with her hand, but thinking that hitting with a hand would hurt herself too much, she drew the whip she always carried and snapped it forward.

Snap.

Liang Chenggong was hit squarely.

His face, mouth, and one side of his nose bridge instantly swelled.

Liang Chenggong winced in pain, baring his teeth, and seeing everyone laughing at him, he lunged at Yin Li, shouting, "You slut, I'm going all out with you."

This time.

Without waiting for Yin Li to move.

An Yi's palm sent Liang Chenggong flying outward.

The onlookers, frightened, kept stepping back.

Liang Chenggong then fell to the ground.

Liang Chengcai realized Qiao Sheng and the others were hard to deal with, hurried forward and stopped Liang Chenggong from getting up to fight them, saying, "Er Di, you're being foolish. We came to discuss matters with the third younger sibling, why are you still fighting them?"

"Exactly."

Liang Chengwen echoed, with an apologetic face, saying, "Back then we weren't home, so we're not very clear about those events. Rest assured we'll get to the bottom of it."

"Heh…"

Cheng Xianglan didn't believe them at all.

She said at an unhurried pace, "How long have I been away from the Liang Family with Jin Yu? If you really wanted to investigate, you'd have done it already. Now you're saying this here—who are you trying to fool?"

"Third sister-in-law…"

Liang Chengwen was about to say something else.

Cheng Xianglan cut him off, "Alright, I'm tired; I won't argue with you any further. If you think I'm easy to bully, then keep going. Otherwise, leave this place…"

"You…"

Xiao was so angry she wanted to scratch Cheng Xianglan's face to the bone.

Liang Chengwen grabbed her, "Mother, stop. Perhaps you all were mistaken before. Let's go back first, and we'll discuss once we've clarified the past events."

They left.

The onlookers, seeing the excitement over, gradually dispersed.

Cheng Xianglan forced a smile and said to Qiao Sheng, "Ah Sheng, sorry to make you look foolish. By the way, who is she?"

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Yin Li.

Yin Li cheerfully introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Yin Li, sister Sheng's friend."

"So she's Ah Sheng's friend."

Cheng Xianglan invited them to sit in the back‑yard living room.

Qiao Sheng took a few sips of tea and couldn't help asking, "Sister Xianglan, isn't your husband's family from Wu tong zhen? How did they end up in the Imperial Capital?"

Cheng Xianglan didn't hide anything from Qiao Sheng and told her truthfully.

"I never told you, but my husband's family are also merchants, right? Unlike me, they run pawnshops and restaurants. The reason they moved to the Imperial Capital is twofold: first, Liang Chengwen passed the imperial examination, and second, they want to open a restaurant here."

Qiao Sheng asked again, "They didn't know you moved to the Imperial Capital?"

Cheng Xianglan replied.

"They probably don't know. My shop in Wu tong zhen has already closed down, and I never told my people before. How could they possibly know? They must have stumbled upon us by chance while strolling, saw us, and then came here." (End of chapter)
