Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Liu Chun followed behind Nie Heng in a relaxed manner and said with a smile, “Cousin-in-law, don’t worry. I’ll definitely put in a good word for you in front of my cousin.” Everyone knew that Nie Heng cared a lot about Liu Xiangru. He was willing to do anything that Liu Xiangru asked.
Nie Heng hated the petty fights among these women. But he had to keep his word to Xing Shu. “Contact Feng Jian of the Feng family. The two of you will go and apologize to Xing Shu in person. Your attitude better be good.” Cheng Lang had shown him respect in this matter, so he had to return the favor.
Liu Chun’s face fell. “Although Xing Shu has a marriage alliance with the Cheng family, she doesn’t have any status in the Cheng family at all. Why should I be afraid of her? Moreover, Cousin-in-law, you said that there are no trade secrets at all. I want to sue Xing Shu for slander.” With the Liu family backing her, why should she fear Xing Shu?
Liu Chun continued, “Cousin-in-law, Xing Shu and Cheng Xingyang have a superficial relationship, which Cheng Xingyang doesn’t even want to maintain.”
Nie Heng lit a cigarette, and looked sharply at Liu Chun. She immediately fell silent, as if someone was choking her.
Nie Heng sneered. “I only deigned to come on account of Xiangru. If you and Feng Jian don’t apologize, Xing Shu won’t be the only one who won’t let you off. Neither will I.”
Liu Chun was dumbfounded and stood rooted to the ground. How could she have forgotten how difficult Nie Heng was? Other than Liu Xiangru, she had never seen him pretend to be nice to any woman. Liu Chun hurriedly lowered her head and did not dare to look into Nie Heng’s eyes. “I understand, Cousin-in-law. I’ll contact Feng Jian now.”
Nie Heng could not be bothered to look at her anymore. He got into the car and left. Liu Chun looked at the shadow of the car and gritted her teeth indignantly. She really could not understand why Nie Heng wanted them to apologize to Xing Shu. What was he afraid of? Cheng Xingyang? That was impossible! Cheng Xingyang—a young master with no real power—was nothing to Nie Heng. As for the Xing family, the Xing family had relied on their relationship with the Cheng family over the years. Their business had indeed improved by several levels, but it was not to the extent that Nie Heng needed to show them respect.
Liu Chun simply could not figure it out. She decided to call Liu Xiangru. “Cousin, Cousin-in-law told me to apologize to Xing Shu in person. Do you think he’s on Xing Shu’s side?”
Liu Chun had a good relationship with Liu Xiangru because she knew how to sweet-talk and had always addressed Nie Heng as Cousin-in-law. She would also spend a lot ot time with Liu Xiangru. She knew that Liu Xiangru enjoyed Nie Heng’s affection towards her and could not tolerate other women enjoying special status with Nie Heng.
When Liu Xiangru heard Liu Chun’s words, she slowly sat up straight. “Nie
Heng told you that personally?”
Liu Chun replied, “Yes, after Cousin-in-law me got me out of the police station, he told me to apologize to Xing Shu in person. He even said that I could not be perfunctory. I thought Xing Shu was just an employee of Cheng Corporation Group. Why did Cousin-in-law have to do this?”
Liu Xiangru’s breathing became much heavier, and she could not help but cough a few times. She increasingly hated her weak constitution. Other than treatment through medication, she could not be agitated. Just hearing this news made her heart feel uncomfortable.
“Cousin, do you think I should go?” Liu Chun deliberately said this to test her. In fact, she did not want to go at all. Moreover, she had to call Feng Jian. When she thought about how she had been hauled to the police station because of Feng Jian, she was furious.
Liu Xiangru said, “Since Nie Heng has already said so, go ahead. I know very well how Nie Heng feels about me. There’s no way he has anything going on with Xing Shu.”
Liu Chun said, “Alright, Cousin, I believe in Cousin-in-law too. However, beware of her hankering. I heard that Xing Shu likes to seduce men.”
A sharp look flashed across Liu Xiangru’s eyes. “Liu Chun, keep an eye on Xing
Shu and Nie Heng. If you find them together, give me a call.”
The corners of Liu Chun’s lips curled up. “Alright, Cousin. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely help you keep an eye on Cousin-in-law.”
Liu Chun then sent Feng Jian a message. Feng Jian had been in a state of fear. When she heard that this matter had been resolved—but she needed to apologize to Xing Shu—she was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit: “I’m not going! What right does that b*tch, Xing Shu have to make me apologize to her?!”
When Liu Chun saw Feng Jian’s reply, a trace of mockery flashed across her eyes: “I’ve already asked Xing Linlin for Xing Shu’s address. My cousin-in-law said that we have to go and apologize in person. If you don’t go, it’s your funeral..
