Nie Xi did not seem to notice Xing Shu’s micro-action. She asked, “Do you know Chen Ru raised h*ll in the Xing family?”

Xing Shu replied, “I know. I didn’t answer their calls. What happened after that?”

Nie Xi stepped on the accelerator in anger. “Your parents went to apologize to Chen Ru, but you know Chen Ru’s personality. She’s so unreasonable; insisted that you let her son down. She said that you’re a promiscuous woman and wanted to annul the engagement. In the end, it seemed like Cheng Gang stepped in.”

Xing Shu asked, “Cheng Gang?”

Nie Xi said, “Yes, Cheng Gang stopped Chen Ru, so your engagement with

Cheng Xingyang has not been annulled.”

Xing Shu pursed her lips. Cheng Gang had been fired by Cheng Corporation Group not long ago. He did not want to annul the engagement for fear of being on Old Master Cheng’s radar. Although Old Master Cheng had announced his retirement a long time ago, he still had absolute say in the Cheng family. Xing Shu did not want to be on Old Master Cheng’s radar either.

Nie Xi looked at her. “If Old Master Cheng gets involved, I’m worried that your situation will be very awkward.” Old Master Cheng could ignore the other men of the Cheng family fooling around, but Cheng Lang—his most outstanding son—must not be tainted in any way. It did not matter how Xing Shu and Cheng Lang fooled around in private as long as they did not bring it to the surface before Old Master Cheng. If she harbored any other thoughts, she would be doomed. No one in the Cheng family would stand on Xing Shu’s side, and neither would Cheng Lang.

Of course, Xing Shu understood this; so she had been keeping her emotions in check. If she fell in love with Cheng Lang, she would never be able to escape. She leaned back and wanted to close her eyes to rest for a while, but the car suddenly lunged forward! The huge impact stunned Xing Shu and Nie Xi.

Nie Xi’s car was rear-ended, and the tail of the Maserati was dented. Xing Zewu and Xing Linlin got out of the culpable car that had crashed into them. Xing Linlin seemed to be still in fear and was holding Xing Zewu’s arm tightly. Xing Zewu—with a secretary beside him—comforted her in a low voice.

Disgust flashed in Xing Zewu’s eyes when he saw Xing Shu. “What kind of driving is that?”

Xing Linlin—who was standing beside Xing Zewu—looked at Xing Shu in surprise. She feigned a worried look that Xing Shu would lunge towards her and a look of fear that Xing Shu would hate her.

Xing Shu lamented her luck at being tailgated by them. “We should be the ones asking you this. You’re the ones tailgated; the liability is on you. The car belongs to Nie Xi. You can liaise directly with the insurance company.”

Xing Zewu had wanted to ignore Xing Shu, but he saw red at her frosty demeanor. “Xing Shu! Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused our family?!”

Xing Linlin quickly tugged at Xing Zewu’s sleeve and persuaded him softly, “Brother Xing, don’t be angry. Xing Shu probably hasn’t received the news yet.

Didn’t she go overseas? There’s a time difference.” At the mention of it, Xing Zewu recalled Xing Shu’s cold shoulder to their phone calls and messages. He suppressed his anger. “Go home tonight. Dad and Mom have something to tell you. Don’t make us worry again!”

Nie Xi had just ended the call with the insurance company. When she saw Xing Zewu so protective of Xing Linlin, she immediately mocked, “Xing Zewu, who’s your sister? Look at what Xing Shu is wearing, and then look at Xing Linlin.

The bracelet on Xing Linlin’s wrist is worth more than a million yuan, right? Your family is really shameless. You treat Xing Shu as a tool for marriage alliance and Xing Linlin as a treasure. I’m guessing you’re in the dark about Xing Linlin and Cheng Xingyang rolling in the hay?”

Xing Zewu’s face instantly darkened. “Nie Xi, watch your words. I’ve known Linlin for so many years, and I know very well what kind of person she is. As for you, don’t think that no one knows about your f*cking relationship with Nie Heng.”

Nie Xi paused for a moment. Xing Zewu knew about her relationship with Nie Heng? How did he know?

When Xing Linlin heard this, her eyes lit up. What was going on between Nie Xi and Nie Heng? Weren’t they siblings?

When Xing Shu saw Xing Linlin’s expression, she knew that something was wrong. She was afraid that Xing Linlin would be up to no good, so she quickly interrupted the conversation between Xing Zewu and Nie Xi. “Please tell Mom and Dad that I’m busy with work and can’t go back.”

Xing Zewu said, “Grandpa said that he really wants to see you.. You don’t want

Grandpa to worry about your shenanigans at his age, do you?”
