Chapter 78 Are you threatening me?
"Your face? Have you ever thought about my face?
In order to stop Sheng Ge'er from returning to his ancestral home, you almost revealed the truth of the matter."
Lord Cheng En was so angry that his face turned blue. Recent events had made him even more dissatisfied with the Zhou family.
He had indulged her too much over the years, causing her to become lawless and almost destroying everything he had worked so hard to obtain.
Especially the assassin who eavesdropped last time has never been found.
Because of this, he couldn't sleep every night, fearing that the truth would be revealed and he would be left with nothing.
But he handled the matter very cleanly back then. If Zhou hadn't been nosy, no one would have known about it!
"Shake it out just shake it out!"
Zhou slammed the table and stood up and said, "She's already dead anyway, so even if it gets out, it will only ruin Xu Miaoshu's reputation.
You keep saying that you did it for your own face, but I guess you can't forget that bitch.
Don't think I can't see that the girl named Jingniang has a pair of seductive eyes just like hers.
You couldn't have her when she was alive, so after she died you found a woman who looked like her and got pregnant with her. Song Moting, are you being fair to me by doing this?"
Zhou's eyes were filled with tears. She touched her belly and said, "Have you forgotten how our son died? I did it for you!"
She was pregnant at that time and was about to give birth, but she abandoned the baby in order to help Song Moting.
It was a fully formed baby boy.
Because of the loss of this child, she was injured and could no longer conceive.
Song Moting promised her that it didn't matter if they didn't have a son, because all the Song family assets would belong to Mingzhu in the future.
But now a nine-year-old bastard has appeared and is trying to snatch the Song family's property from her pearl. How can she tolerate this?
When talking about the lost child, Cheng Enbo felt heartbroken.
That was why he tried so hard to make amends to Zhou and not take concubines or have affairs with other women.
As for Jingniang, it was an accident, or perhaps he vented his unrequited love for Xu Miaoshu on Jingniang.
At first, she was unwilling, but later she served him obediently and he was very satisfied. If he had not been afraid of Zhou, he would have brought her back long ago.
However, Zhou was still not satisfied.
He took a deep breath and asked, "What do you want me to do to satisfy you?"
Zhou raised her head, looked at Cheng Enbo and said, "You can keep that bastard, but you can't keep that bitch. I want you to kill her with your own hands."
Cheng Enbo's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief: "Are you crazy?
If you don't like Jingniang, just drive her away. Why do you want to kill her?"
Zhou walked in front of him, curled her lips and smiled coldly: "It's okay if you don't kill her, I will dig out her eyes and see how she seduces you again."
"Mad man, you are a mad man."
Only at this moment did Cheng Enbo truly feel how terrifying Zhou was.
It was she who bewitched him to kill Xu Miaoshu and seize the Xu family's property.
Now she forced him to gouge out Jingniang's eyes.
Over the years, he had grown tired of this woman.
"I am a madman, but you drove me crazy."
Zhou had too much pain in his heart.
She and Song Moting were childhood sweethearts, but he married Xu Miaoshu and abandoned her in order to covet the Xu family's property.
Later, she entered the mansion as a concubine, and finally killed Xu Miaoshu and took the position of Lady of Cheng'enbo.
For Song Moting, her hands were stained with blood and she lost her son.
He kept saying that he would not betray her, but he turned around and had a son with another woman.
Especially the woman had a pair of eyes similar to Xu Miaoshu's.
And the daughter she was so proud of lost her reputation at the banquet and could no longer marry into a good family. It seemed as if she had lost everything overnight.
How could she not be crazy?
Zhou took a deep breath and said, "If you insist on keeping that bitch, don't blame me for tearing my face off with you and making your ugly deeds public. At worst, we will both die together."
Cheng Enbo was shocked, and suddenly grabbed her neck and said, "Are you threatening me?"
Zhou was shocked and a look of panic flashed across her face.
She looked Cheng Enbo straight in the eye and said, "Kill me if you can."
A murderous look appeared on Cheng Enbo's face. He had kept himself clean all these years not only to make up for Zhou, but also because she knew too many of his secrets.
Once his relationship is broken, he will fall into hell and have nothing.
He's had enough of this kind of life!
Cheng Enbo slowly loosened his hand and hid the coldness in his eyes.
He sighed, reached out and wiped away the tears on Zhou's face and said, "She's just a woman, why do you have to say such cruel things?"
Zhou knew that Song Moting wouldn't dare to do that, as they still had feelings for each other after so many years.
She felt wronged and said, "It was obviously you who betrayed me first."
"Okay, okay, it's my fault."
Cheng Enbo stretched out his hands and held her in his arms, coaxing her, "It's all up to you.
Back in Ningzhou, Jingniang took advantage of my drunkenness and climbed into my bed. I never thought she would get pregnant with my child."
Zhou snorted, stretched out her hand and hammered him a few times, saying: "But for her, you strangled my neck and wanted to kill me."
Cheng Enbo said: "Who made you angry? There are so many people at the banquet today. How can I live my life if this matter gets out?
It has not been easy for me to get to my current position. Please don't be so radical in the future.
Sheng'er is still young, and as long as he is raised under your name, he is your son.
If there is no one to inherit this huge family business and title, it will just fall into the hands of others."
"Master said so much just to make me recognize Brother Sheng, didn't he?
I said, I can recognize him, but his mother cannot stay, this is my bottom line."
Zhou pushed Cheng Enbo away and said, "If the master can't do it, I can do it myself."
Cheng Enbo narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a long time, and finally compromised and said, "Forget it.
But the person has just entered our house. If we take action now, it might arouse suspicion.
I can only ask you to be patient for a few days. Since I promised you, I will not break my promise. "
It was not easy for Zhou to get a promise from him, so she did not force him.
She walked over, laid in Cheng Enbo's arms and called out, "Master."
Cheng Enbo remained calm, patted Zhou's shoulder gently and said, "You still need to explain to Mingzhu."
When Zhou mentioned this, she remembered that she had slapped her. She hurriedly said, "I'll go see her now."
Having said that, she hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
Cheng Enbo looked at her leaving figure, and his eyes gradually deepened.
He secretly clenched his hands and then walked out the door and walked towards the courtyard where Jingniang and her son were placed.
At this time, Song Mingzhu was walking on the street like a wandering soul.
Her face was burning with pain after being hit, and she felt wronged and uncomfortable.
Seeing a restaurant in front of her, she walked in, ordered a pot of wine and started drinking.
Just after I had a drink, I heard the man's gentle voice: "It's boring to drink alone, I'll accompany you."
