Chapter 54 True or False, Winning Numbers
Cheng Zhirou flipped through a few pages with trembling fingers, and soon saw the diary about herself -
[My second sister caught a cold last night. I prepared some cold medicine for her, hoping she can get better soon.]
[When I came back today, I saw my second sister’s phone screen was on on the coffee table in the living room. I accidentally discovered that my sisters had privately created a WeChat group that I didn’t know about…]
[My second sister would be very happy if Cheng Fenghao gave her a birthday gift. But she didn't even look at my gift.]
Cheng Zhirou's face suddenly changed. One night, she caught a cold and returned to her room feeling dizzy.
Cheng Ye came and knocked on the door, bringing her some cold medicine.
Although she took it at that time, she threw all the cold medicine into the trash can the moment she closed the door.
Because she didn't know whether the cold medicine Cheng Ye sent her would make her body worse after taking it.
As for the WeChat group...
One day she left her cell phone on the coffee table in the living room and went back to her bedroom to do her own things.
It was not until I needed to use my phone that I suddenly remembered it was in the living room.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Ye discovered what happened in the WeChat group.
Cheng Zhirou's eyes widened in panic, "Sister, Cheng Ye...he knows that we have set up a WeChat group?!"
Cheng Ye actually knew everything...
But he didn't expose the three sisters? !
Cheng Wei's eyes were red. "Yes, Cheng Ye knew it a long time ago. But he didn't point out our crimes and acted as if nothing had happened."
Cheng Zhirou's face was filled with shock, and her trembling hands no longer had the courage to read the rest of the diary.
It reminded her of several times before when she sat on the sofa in the living room, holding her phone and editing content in the WeChat group that ridiculed Cheng Ye, laughing so hard that she couldn't stop.
Cheng Ye looked at her silently for a few seconds, then went upstairs to his room.
She didn't think much about it, but now that she thinks about it, Cheng Ye must have known that she was laughing at him in the WeChat group? !
Cheng Zhirou's pupils shrank. The truth was so shocking that it made her head buzz.
When Cheng Zhirou thought that Cheng Ye didn't have even a penny for living expenses in the Cheng family, she felt suffocated deep in her soul.
Cheng Zhirou didn't dare to read the contents of the diary, and felt her mind becoming confused.
She stared blankly at the title page of the diary.
Cheng Zhirou suddenly began to doubt herself. Did they really do such unforgivable harm to Cheng Ye?
Forced Cheng Ye to sever ties with everyone in the Cheng family and leave the Cheng family decisively?
But, they didn't force Cheng Ye to come to the table to eat, did they?
Shouldn’t the main reason be the father?
It seemed that his father had specifically instructed the housekeeper not to let Cheng Ye come to the table for dinner.
They felt that Cheng Ye had stayed in the orphanage for too long, lacked discipline, and did not have the most basic table manners. It would not only be embarrassing for him to sit at the table to eat, but it would also easily hurt Feng Hao's sensitive and fragile heart.
"Sister! I'll go ask Dad." Cheng Zhirou stood up quickly, her eyes becoming even more panicked. "He's processing documents in the living room downstairs. I'll go ask him."
Cheng Wei frowned, "What did you ask him?"
Cheng Zhirou was in no mood to reply. She ran down the stairs in a panic. Seeing this, Cheng Wei followed her reluctantly.
Father Cheng had just finished a call from a big client when he saw his eldest and second daughters running towards him.
"What's going on? You look so flustered." Father Cheng's face was serious.
"Dad, why don't you let Cheng Ye come to the table to eat?" Cheng Zhirou asked anxiously.
Father Cheng frowned, "Did I ever say that Cheng Ye is not allowed to eat at the table?"
"You said it! At that time, you also told the butler not to let Cheng Ye come to the table for dinner." The memory in Cheng Zhirou's mind began to gradually become clear.
Upon hearing this, Cheng's father realized it belatedly and said, "That's true, but I didn't ask Cheng Ye to stay away from the table for dinner."
"At that time, he bullied Feng Hao, and I was very angry. I told the housekeeper not to let Cheng Ye come to the table to eat." Cheng's father frowned tightly, "Who knew that since that time, Cheng Ye really didn't come down to eat. It's absurd."
Father Cheng was fuming with anger, "This rebellious son is always angry with me and contradicting me!!"
"But Dad, haven't you ever thought that Cheng Ye might misunderstand that you asked him to never sit at the table for dinner?" Cheng Wei took a deep breath and said seriously.
Father Cheng was shocked. “No way?”
Cheng Wei and Cheng Zhirou looked at each other, and there was silence between them.
-
Afternoon class ends.
Cheng's mother was waiting at the classroom door.
She looked inside, confirmed where Cheng Ye was, and walked over.
Cheng Ye's expression was extremely cold, and his tone was impatient, "Ms. Xu, you are here to question me too?"
Hearing the voice, Cheng's mother felt a pang of heartache. Xiaoye hadn't called her "Mom" for a long time.
"Xiao Ye, come home with your mother." After scolding Cheng Ye in the art room, Cheng's mother returned home, and the thought of her absence from Cheng Ye's eighteenth birthday kept repeating in her mind.
Not one or two years, but eighteen years! !
Cheng Fenghao thought that Cheng's mother came to see him, but the first thing she did was to persuade Cheng Ye to return to the Cheng family! !
He will never allow it!
Cheng Ye took the initiative to sign the severance agreement. If he returns to the Cheng family, he may not have such a good opportunity in the future.
Thinking of this, Cheng Fenghao came over with red eyes and tried to pull Cheng Ye's arm, "Brother, Mom is already sad enough, you should stop being willful and come back to the Cheng family to reunite with us, okay?"
Cheng Ye threw Cheng Fenghao away with cold eyes, "You are pretending to be pitiful, but you always come to touch me, aren't you disgusting?"
Cheng Fenghao's feet were almost shaken by Cheng Ye's throw. A fleeting venom flashed in his eyes, and then he said aggrievedly: "Since my brother hates me, I will leave the Cheng family after my brother returns to the Cheng family."
Mother Cheng looked at Cheng Ye pleadingly, "Xiao Ye, I know you have a good heart. You just said those words to us out of anger. You and Feng Hao can get along well."
Cheng Ye put his hands in his pockets impatiently, "Ms. Xu, are you deaf? Cheng Fenghao and I can't live under the same roof."
"How much of your sincerity is in begging me to return to the Cheng family? How much is false? If you decisively drive Cheng Fenghao out of the Cheng family forever, I might look at you differently."
Mother Cheng was so ashamed that she handed Cheng Ye a box and said, "Xiao Ye, this is my birthday present for you."
Cheng Ye didn't answer, his tone was very cold, "It was a birthday in the past, so is there any meaning in giving a gift now?"
Mother Cheng's hands and feet were cold, and she felt that she would never see the old Cheng Ye again.
In the past, when Cheng Ye looked at her, there would be a warm smile on his face, instead of the cold and indifferent expression he has now.
By the time Cheng's mother came to her senses from her trance, Cheng Ye had already walked to the classroom door.
“Xiaoye!!”
No matter how Cheng's mother called out, she received no response from Cheng Ye.
Mother Cheng's heart ached, and she stared blankly at Cheng Ye's back as he disappeared at the door.
Why......
Why can't she be given a chance to make amends? !
Cheng Fenghao kept comforting Cheng's mother, but his heart was filled with joy, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
-
Cheng Ye didn't go to the cafeteria to eat, but went to the lottery shop outside the school alone.
Based on his memories from his previous life, he clearly remembered the winning numbers of the lottery.
But, lottery is a statistical thing, and even if you know the first prize number, it is controlled by internal personnel, so even if you buy that number, you still cannot win.
Cheng Ye’s goal is not to win the first prize.
Even if you can't win the big prize, a small prize is still okay.
Cheng Ye spent two dollars to buy the winning numbers for the second prize of the Double Color Ball lottery which will be drawn this Sunday.
He first finished his dinner outside and then walked into the school gate.
After walking a few steps, Cheng Ye ran into his eldest sister Cheng Wei and second sister Cheng Zhirou.
Behind them, Cheng Fenghao was supported by his mother. He was as weak as broken glass and cried several times out of extreme grievance.
"Mom, elder sister, second sister, I can go to the hospital by myself. Just take me to the school gate."
Mother Cheng's eyes flashed with distress, "Your old injury has relapsed. It's not safe to go alone. We'll give you a safer one."
When Cheng Wei saw Cheng Ye, she had a lot to say, but all of it was stuck in her throat and she couldn't say it at all. After a while, she gently said, "Cheng Ye, can you go back to the Cheng family?"
Cheng Zhirou also said awkwardly: "Let's go home."
Cheng Ye's mouth curled up into an arrogant smile, "Hey, didn't Miss Cheng Er tear up the DNA test report in front of me this morning? Did you forget it so quickly?"
