Chapter 8 I'll protect you and secretly watch him
Cheng Ye caught the scrutiny and suspicion in Cheng's father's eyes. He sneered, "Why, do you suspect me of stealing something?"
The Cheng father was embarrassed after being hit in the heart. He quickly returned to the point with a guilty conscience, "Cheng Ye, if you don't obey me, I will have to use the Cheng family's power to pressure you."
After saying this, Father Cheng glanced meaningfully at the petite girl who was trembling with fear behind Cheng Ye.
Jiang Mian's eyelashes trembled, and her two fair little hands tightly grasped Cheng Ye's clothes.
Cheng Ye understood the hidden meaning of Cheng's father's words and decided to take coercive measures to force Jiang Mian to transfer schools.
"Mr. Cheng, it seems that you are not very smart." Cheng Ye reminded indifferently, "Do you want everyone in the capital to know that I don't like Chu Xiyan, but the Cheng family is using various coercive means to force me to marry?"
Father Cheng's expression was cracked and his eyes were filled with astonishment.
"By then, everyone will think that Chu Xiyan is a dog-licker. I don't like her, but she insisted on forcing me to marry her through marriage."
Cheng Ye looked indifferent, "It's not just the Cheng family's face that's lost, it's also the Chu family's face. Do you think I'm right, Mr. Cheng?"
He kept calling him Mr. Cheng, which made Cheng's father feel very upset. Is it so difficult to call him Dad? !
And when did Cheng Ye's brain become so flexible? !
He did not consider the serious adverse consequences of this coercive method.
If this causes grudges between the Cheng and Chu families, it would really be a loss.
I'm so annoying.
Having been in a high position for many years, he was the only one who had the right to tease and coerce others. But now, who would have thought that his own son could easily resolve the situation with just a few words.
The key is that he can't think of any plan to fight back strongly.
The hard one is not enough, so the only option is the soft one.
Father Cheng calmed down his irritable mood and tried to make himself look kind and benevolent. "Xiaoye, Xiyan is a good girl. You two have known each other for three years. You are in your third year of high school now. Studying is more important. I won't urge you to get married for the time being."
"But after the college entrance examination, I still hope that you can resolve misunderstandings and get along with each other in a friendly manner."
"Misunderstanding? I did bully Cheng Fenghao, and I did bully Cheng Fenghao many times." Cheng Ye said sarcastically with a smile, "How can it be called a misunderstanding? I just don't listen, always cause trouble, and am very rebellious."
Father Cheng's face was gloomy, and Cheng Ye's mouth was like a machine gun, and every word he said hit him right in the heart.
"Cheng Ye, what do you want in exchange for being obedient? Except for letting Feng Hao leave the Cheng family, I can agree to all other conditions." Father Cheng asked through gritted teeth.
Cheng Ye said lightly, "Oh, forget it then."
"Money! I'll give you money, okay?" Father Cheng didn't believe that Cheng Ye didn't need money. Cheng Ye must be in great need of money right now. "How much do you want?"
"I don't want it." Cheng Ye raised the corner of his mouth.
Father Cheng was at a loss as it was the first time he had encountered such a difficult situation.
Cheng's mother burst into tears. The eldest sister Cheng Wei frowned and took Cheng's mother away. The second sister Cheng Zhirou and the third sister Cheng Shiyan knew that Cheng Ye would not be persuaded, so they had to leave with their eldest sister and Cheng's mother.
Father Cheng was so angry that he threw down the cigarette butt in his hand and stomped on it angrily. "Cheng Ye, you are simply lawless! What has our Cheng family done to you?!"
"You did something wrong, and we educate you to make you a better person."
"You said it yourself. You had excellent grades in junior high school, but in high school, you ranked behind 1,000. Feng Hao and Xi Yan were ambitious and ranked first and second. And you? You gave up on yourself and neglected your studies!"
"Feng Hao has good morals, how about you? You have dirty hands! You actually stole your third sister's jewelry necklace!"
"You are jealous, narrow-minded, indifferent to family affection, and have corrupt morals!!"
"I wanted to train you, but you didn't work hard and were willing to be a good-for-nothing. You didn't try to improve yourself, but only wanted to bully Feng Hao and compete for his favor."
"You don't deserve to be a member of the Cheng family!!"
Father Cheng was filled with righteous indignation, but Cheng Ye was not at all disturbed by his words from beginning to end, and his expression remained as stable as ever.
Cheng Ye yawned, half smiling, "Sorry, I was distracted just now. What did you say just now? Can you repeat it again?"
"You--!" Father Cheng's face turned red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
He was furious, as if he had punched cotton.
Father Cheng left angrily.
The surroundings became quiet again. Cheng Ye looked back and saw the little girl behind him with clear and beautiful eyes filled with crystal tears.
Seeing Cheng Ye looking over, the little girl looked pitiful and extremely aggrieved, "Cheng Ye, he, they were so mean to me."
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's just a group of divine gold, don't be afraid, I'll protect you."
"Yeah." Jiang Mian nodded vigorously.
She saw a store nearby, her eyes curved, and she pointed over there, "Cheng Ye, I'll treat you to something to eat."
Cheng Ye couldn't refuse. At worst, he could invite him back next time. "Okay."
Jiang Mian excitedly held Cheng Ye's hand.
Cheng Ye was stunned, and felt a warm feeling in his palm.
Before he could come to his senses, the little girl took him to the door of the store.
As soon as they stopped, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.
The sound of rain is crisp and very pleasant to hear.
The girl looked around the environment and suggested, "Cheng Ye, there aren't many things. I'll just buy them."
When the shop owner heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "This is the shop inside Yahua High School. Even if you want to buy, I can't sell it to you."
Cheng Ye pulled Jiang Mian aside and said, "Just buy some fruit."
Jiang Mian blinked, "It's too little. This is my first time treating someone."
Cheng Ye said helplessly, "It's OK as long as the intention is there."
After saying that, Cheng Ye began to pick some fruits.
Jiang Mian hesitated to speak, staring at Cheng Ye's profile, looking somewhat absorbed.
After picking the fruits, Cheng Ye looked at the gradually increasing rain outside, turned around and asked the young man who was cracking melon seeds and watching a dating variety show, "Boss, do you have an umbrella?"
"No, not many people buy umbrellas normally, so I don't buy them very often."
The shop owner then shifted his gaze away from the electronic tablet playing the dating variety show.
He cracked melon seeds, looked at Cheng Ye, then at Jiang Mian, "Young man, don't you have a hooded jacket? You and your girlfriend can squeeze together and still keep out the rain."
Jiang Mian's fair face turned red instantly.
Cheng Ye explained helplessly, "We are not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship."
"Oh, I understand. You're high school students, so they're strictly monitored in that regard. Just run fast and don't get discovered by school leaders!" The young man had an expression that said, "I understand, I understand."
Cheng Ye: “…” You know shit.
He looked up at the sky and saw that the drizzle had turned into moderate rain and was about to turn into heavy rain.
Cheng Ye unzipped his jacket and asked, "How about you just do it for now?"
Jiang Mian nodded with a red face.
Cheng Ye paused for a moment, then put his arms around Jiang Mian's slender shoulders and brought her to his side.
Jiang Mian's heart was beating abnormally fast.
Cheng Ye took Jiang Mian and ran into the rain.
She was so nervous that her palms were sweaty. From time to time, she raised her eyes slightly and looked at him secretly.
When Cheng Ye lowered his eyes to observe whether Jiang Mian was wet, Jiang Mian felt a little shy and quickly withdrew his gaze from him.
