Chapter 29: Apologize

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

That evening itself, Xie Wan and Cheng Xiao went to the back of the mountain shyly, with Cheng Ming following behind them.

Cheng Ling and Xie Ying were in the field, removing insects. The two of them were talking and laughing, and the sky was not completely dark yet. The clouds in the distance were beautiful, and the back of the mountain was like a quiet pastoral landscape painting.

Xie Wan was wearing high heels and did not want to go forward. She was afraid that the soil would dirty her shoes.

“Mom! Cheng Ling!” Xie Wan was pushed by Cheng Ming before she spoke out.

It was so embarrassing. She had just told Cheng Ling to let the two of them move out this afternoon, and now she wanted to apologize to them.

Wouldn’t she be laughed to death by Cheng Ling?!

Cheng Ling told a joke to Xie Ying, which made Xie Ying laugh out loud. The two of them acted as if they didn’t hear Xie Wan. They didn’t look back and continued to sprinkle insect repellent.

The air was filled with the fresh fragrance of plants.

The three of them were forced to take a few steps forward. Cheng Ming pushed Xie Wan again.

“Hurry up. It’s all your fault. Why did you say that today?! If they’re not willing then just let them. But you even chased them out!”

Cheng Ming shifted all the responsibility to Xie Wan in a few sentences. Xie Wan felt resentful in her heart, but she did not dare to refute him.

When she married into the Cheng family, she was married into a wealthy family. She had to lower herself in order to have a status in the Cheng family.

Even if Cheng Ming was a weak man, Xie Wan had no other choice.

“Cheng Ling! Come up here for a moment!”

This time, Cheng Ling heard a voice. She turned around and saw the family of three standing by the side of the field. They did not seem to be willing to take one more step. She smiled, “Grandma, look, someone is coming to beg us not to move out.”

Xie Ying turned around in confusion. “Why are they here?”

These three people were the ones that Xie Ying didn’t want to see the most right now.

“Didn’t I say this afternoon that they would definitely come to beg us not to move out?” Cheng Ling revealed a slightly cunning smile. “Grandma, do you want to play something interesting?”

Cheng Ling walked towards them while Xie Ying looked puzzled.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t you just ask us to move out this morning? Our luggage is already packed. Tomorrow early in the morning, we’ll move out.”

Xie Ying also walked over and stood beside Cheng Ling, still looking puzzled.

What was Ling Ling talking about? Why did she say that they had packed their luggage? They clearly hadn’t packed anything yet.

Even though Xie Ying hated her daughter and the Cheng family, how could she not bow her head in front of them. Even if they wanted them to move out, they had to give them more time.

They needed time to find a house, pack their luggage, and move. They couldn’t be a hero now.

Xie Ying took off her gloves and tugged at Cheng Ling’s arm, signaling her to stop talking.

“We’ll move out, but it’ll take two or three days to find a house. In these two or three days...”

Xie Wan quickly put on a fake smile. “Mom, what are you talking about! I was just joking this morning. You’re my mom, and Cheng Ling is my daughter. How could I let you all move out?!”

Xie Ying,” ?”

Cheng Ling was laughing sarcastically at the side.

“Really? I don’t think you were joking this morning. Didn’t you slap the table and say that you want to collect our rent? In order not to annoy you, we’ll just move out.”

Cheng Ling also put on a fake smile and said to Xie Wan.

Of course, she knew what had happened. After Xie Wan and Cheng Xiao left, she sent Lu Qi a WeChat message telling him that they were moving out.

Although she used Lu Qi a little, what she said was the truth.

She just didn’t expect the Lu family to be so fast. It had only been three hours, and Xie Wan and her daughter were already here.

“Ling Ling, what’s going on?” Xie Ying pulled Cheng Ling to the side and asked curiously.

Cheng Ling smiled slyly. “I don’t know. Maybe they have a conscience?”

Xie Wan was worried that the two of them would not agree, so she quickly said, “Mom, what are you whispering about? We are a family. Is there anything that you can’t tell us?”

“I was just joking this afternoon, don’t take it to heart.”

Cheng Ling sneered, “I’m sorry, we’ll take it to heart, how about it?”

Xie Wan maintained a smile on her face, but she was still gnashing her teeth in her heart.

This Cheng Ling was really stubborn!

Let’s see what you could do when Xiao Xiao and the head of the Lu family had a relationship!

Cheng Ming couldn’t stand it anymore and felt that it was necessary to play his role as a man. He cleared his throat, he said, “Cheng Ling! How did you talk to your mother? She had said it was a joke, so you guys can continue living here.. It’s to prevent outsiders from saying that our Cheng family is cold-blooded. It’s just a house, the Cheng family can still afford it!”
