Chapter 104: Calling Off the Engagement

~4 min read 762 words

Liang Chengwei's wrongdoing was known by the old man, and he was even caught in the act.

Zhu Xueheng also didn't know how Liang Lijiang had schemed; the timing was just a coincidence, everything was accidental. When Liang Chengwei and the old man's new wife were getting hot and heavy, the old man pushed open the door.

The Liang family had suffered such a huge scandal, of course they needed to cover it up. While covering it up, Liang Chengwei knew the old man wouldn't let him off, and he also saw those ambitious Liang family members who wanted to pull him down from the heir position.

He, in front of the Liang family, revealed the old man's act of paving the way for that beloved treasure abroad. The old man, fearing accidents, had also left a will, giving many things to that little son. Originally just meant to give the little son a guarantee, but now it has become the trigger for internal strife in the Liang family.

No one wants to be a stepping stone for a child still studying abroad. Those people all think they can inherit the Liang family, each more boisterous than the last, just short of tearing the Liang family apart.

Liang Yan only heard the three words 'divide things', and she eagerly asked Zhu Xueheng, 'Do I have anything to get a share of?'

Zhu Xueheng shook his head. Whether married off or not, as long as they are girls, they get nothing!

Liang Yan felt a bit down. What a pity, she couldn't get a share of anything. She didn't gain any advantage, unhappy!

'Daddy's things are all yours, even if Mommy later has younger brothers and sisters, as long as it's Daddy's, it's all yours!'

'But Mommy says she will only have me as her daughter! Daddy can cease to be Daddy, but Mommy will always be Mommy!'

'Huo Huo, your mommy loves you so much!'

'Of course!'

Zhu Xueheng's sentimental face froze; the situation seemed to loop back again, that damned mouth of his!

'What about the Chu family?'

Zhu Xueheng hurriedly answered Su Yu's question: 'The Chu family is shameless, wanting to treat the betrothal gifts that Liang Chengwei and the old master gave them as compensation. The old master was driven to distraction by the younger generation, but Liang Chengwei isn't like that—he's fighting the old master while also demanding the betrothal gifts from the Chu family.'

'Has it been retrieved?'

Liang Yan didn't like those two adults, but she was curious about the outcome.

'No, they're still wrangling.'

The things that had gone into the Chu family's pockets, Liang Chengwei wanted to take them out, but it wasn't that simple.

'However, Liang Chengwei probably won't be able to involve the Chu family anymore. The old man wants to throw him in jail. With his meager cultivation, he can only roar in prison!'

Worthless! If it weren't for the old master wanting an obedient puppet, how could he possibly compete with Liang Lijiang for the heir position!

'Its value hasn't been fully squeezed out; it's a shame to let it go in!'

Su Xi, whose emotions had stabilized considerably, heard Zhu Xueheng's words and felt a bit regretful. Such a useful tool person—once the old master gets Liang Chengwei thrown in, she won't be able to find him.

'Please tell me the details?'

'Lawsuit, right? Do you still remember the Mu family's death struggle? Does Liang Chengwei know how the old master's son came to be?'

'How did he come about?'

Zhu Xueheng was equally curious.

Looking at three pairs of eyes brimming with curiosity, Su Xi gave a slight smile, 'Is that important? What matters is what the netizens think.'

Zhu Xueheng hesitated, and Liang Yan didn't understand.

'Little Yu sis, what does Uncle mean?'

'Get your dad to think of a way to trick Liang Chengwei into suing the Chu family for the betrothal gifts, and also tell the netizens that the Liang family's old man had given birth to a child of a few years old. Best to let Liang Chengwei spill all the Liang family gossip, infuriating the Liang family's old man.'

【Mm, he probably doesn't need a dazing card to infuriate him, right? Why hasn't Wulongcha returned yet?】

Liang Yan nodded, 'If he's angered to death, I can send him a bouquet of chrysanthemums!'

'Huo Huo is really generous!'

Liang Yan straightened her back, smiling as she nodded.

【I'm back!】

【Wulongcha, what did you find out?】

Today's update~

Good night, dear ones~
