Shen Yuanyuan felt that this sister-in-law was being unreasonable. Relationships were a matter between two people. If you liked someone, you liked them; if you didn't, you didn't. If Cheng Jue didn't like her, her pestering would be useless!
"Alright, since you're fine, stop holding onto me. I'm going out to take a look."
As a powerful figure, even without her abilities, she still retained some skill in reading people's hearts. She felt that the sister-in-law tonight was a bit problematic. She was afraid Li Qing'er would scheme against Ning Yan, and if something really happened, it could affect the relationship between the two families.
She rushed out the door, searched the restroom but couldn't find anyone, so she simply dialed Ning Yan's number. At that time, Cheng Jue was holding Ning Yan and checking into a room. Ning Yan was a bit confused, so Cheng Jue answered the phone.
Learning that the couple was together, Shen Yuanyuan finally relaxed.
However, when she returned to the booth, she didn't see Li Qing'er.
It turned out that as soon as she left, a waiter brought over a drink and walked directly to Li Qing'er: "A gentleman said to give this drink to the most beautiful lady at booth 8."
Li Qing'er's heart immediately bubbled with joy. See, some people still had eyes; she was the most beautiful among everyone.
She picked up the cocktail and drank it in one gulp, then scanned the dance floor to see who had sent her the drink.
Others also heard what the waiter said. Among their group, there were only four ladies. The two most beautiful ones had gone out, and Su Yan was more conservative in nature and dressed modestly, which made Li Qing'er stand out. But they felt there was something amiss here.
Li Qing'er drank the wine, her cheeks flushed with excitement. Ning Yan had been gone for a while, and she hadn't greeted anyone, quietly slipping out.
She wanted to go see the scene and film the entire process of Ning Yan being gang-raped!
Even at this point, she hadn't realized that she had already been drugged. Her hand subconsciously reached to tug at her collar.
At this moment, several footsteps entered...
...
Cheng Jue and Ning Yan went at it four times throughout the night before finally stopping. After sleeping for over five hours, Cheng Jue finally opened his eyes.
He reached for his phone on the nightstand, turned it on, and a flood of messages and missed calls popped up.
He directly called the topmost one, "Xiao San'er, what's wrong? You haven't left yet?"
"My dear brother, don't you see what time it is? It's past ten in the morning!
Last night, no, early this morning, something happened. Li Qing'er was... you know. When she was found, she only had one breath left. She's still in the hospital's emergency room now. I just wanted to let you know."
Cheng Jue didn't like Li Qing'er, but he had watched her grow up. Hearing that something had happened to her, he naturally had to ask for details.
"What exactly happened?"
Xiao San'er: "Last night, after you and sister-in-law left, we played for another hour or so. It was Ms. Shen who discovered Li Qing'er was missing. Her phone was also off, and she couldn't be reached. Everyone searched together, and as a result, she was found in a restroom stall, with only one breath left.
You didn't see how miserable she was at the time..."
Her lower body was covered in blood, and her body was bruised and marked. Her miserable state made it clear what had happened without even asking.
"What did the police say?"
Cheng Jue reached out and stroked the half of his wife's small face buried in the pillow. His wife's condition yesterday was clearly not right. He hadn't had time to think about it carefully then, but now it seemed there might be some connection between the two.
"You finally got to the point.
The police checked the lobby surveillance on the spot. Li Qing'er drank a glass of wine given by someone else. Before that, she put something in sister-in-law's cup."
Cheng Jue: "..."
"Were the people caught?"
Xiao San'er: "They were caught, but they were two separate groups.
One group said they were paid to gang-rape a drugged person in the restroom, and the other group was that scoundrel from the Qiu family and his cronies."
The scoundrel second young master of the Qiu family, a true playboy. A few months ago, he even played a young girl to death. That family's circumstances weren't great; they had reported it to the police, but the Qiu family settled it with two million, the case was dropped, and Qiu Ershao was fine, still able to play with women.
Last night, when Ning Yan was in the dance floor, he took a liking to her and wanted to drug her and get her into bed, just like before. Unexpectedly, Ning Yan was taken away by Cheng Jue, and they didn't catch her. Instead, they ran into Li Qing'er, who was drugged.
At that time, Li Qing'er was being... by the people hired to deal with Ning Yan. The one named Qiu was already a bit perverted, so the two groups just joined forces. There were eleven people in total. How could Li Qing'er possibly withstand that? When she was found, she truly only had one breath left.
Originally, Cheng Jue felt very sympathetic towards Li Qing'er, but after he understood the situation clearly, only disgust remained!
Fortunately, his wife was fine. Otherwise, he would have wished he could have just killed Li Qing'er.
However, he didn't need to act at all. Two days later, Li Qing'er couldn't be saved and died directly in the hospital.
The Li Family vented all their anger on those people. The Qiu Family still wanted to get Qiu Er'er out, but no matter how much money they spent, it was useless.
Cheng Jue felt a prickle of resentment towards Li Chengyu because of what Li Qing'er had done. On the surface, he pretended not to know anything, but in his heart, he had already distanced himself from him.
A month later, Cheng Jue and Ning Yan held a grand wedding. The Ning Family was also invited to A City. Ning Father and Ning Mother truly hadn't expected their daughter to get married so quickly, and their feelings were somewhat complex.
It was Ning Yan's sister-in-law, who used to look down on Ning Yan, who immediately changed her attitude upon learning that her sister-in-law had married someone capable.
"Yanyan, your brother doesn't have much opportunity for development in our small town. Do you think you could ask your brother-in-law to arrange a position for him at his company?
It doesn't need to be a very important position, just a good enough salary to support the family.
Otherwise, with the little money your brother earns, buying a house outright in A City is absolutely impossible.
The educational resources in big cities are good, and if your little nephew wants to be successful, wouldn't he naturally come to his own aunt?
Furthermore, if our whole family moves here, your brother and I can also look after things if you have any issues here in the future."
She said it nicely, not wanting any important position, but could her brother be an security guard and be paid fifty thousand a month?
And they want to buy a house outright in A City? A house of over a hundred square meters in A City costs four to five million. Her parents had saved some money before, but it was all spent when her elder brother got married. Even if they sold the two houses in their hometown, they could at most raise about two million. They simply couldn't afford to buy a house outright. How was this any different from asking her for a house?
And she said she wanted to take care of her. How stupid would Ning Yan have to be to believe her sister-in-law's words?
"All positions in the company are one person per role. If sister-in-law is willing, I can arrange for elder brother to be a security guard. A security guard's salary is not small, a minimum of five thousand a month!"
As soon as the sister-in-law heard that the sister-in-law would only arrange a five-thousand-yuan-a-month security guard position for her own brother, her face immediately turned green.
"Your brother is a university graduate, how can he be a security guard? He majored in business management in university!"
Ning Yan: "Isn't that perfect? Let him be the security captain. He can also manage nine people. The security team is a group of ten, and the captain gets an extra five hundred yuan in salary."
She wondered if the security guard's salary at the company was really this much?
The sister-in-law felt for the first time that this sister-in-law didn't understand human language, "Yanyan, look, you and your brother-in-law are about to have your wedding. What kind of betrothal gifts did the Cheng Family give?
Their family is so well-off, they should at least give our parents a house, right?"
"Sister-in-law, look, I am your and my brother's only sister-in-law. Now that I'm getting married, you should at least give me some dowry, right? I don't want anything else, just buy me a house in A City!"
Cheng's sister-in-law: "..." She felt that the sister-in-law was not speaking human language!
Similarly, Ning Yan also felt that her sister-in-law was not speaking human language!
So, the two of them fell out.
Later, Ning Yan relayed the conversation to her parents and then clearly stated: "Mom and Dad, I'm just someone who lives off others. Cheng Jue spends money to support me. As long as I can live, that's enough. I can't control others, after all, I don't even have a job.
But you two elders, don't worry, I will definitely transfer your retirement funds monthly."
After the Original Host's reputation was ruined, why did she prefer to move far away rather than return to her hometown?
Wasn't it because her parents completely favored their son!
The wedding betrothal gift was 380,000, a car worth over 200,000, and they even bought a house for her brother. When it came to the Original Host, she had to endure her sister-in-law's sarcasm just to ask for tuition fees, and she was even pressured to find a part-time job and support herself after going to university.
Ning Dad and Ning Mother were dissatisfied with their daughter-in-law's words, but they never secretly gave the Original Host a single cent, and even told the Original Host to bear with it.
The Original Host endured it, so, none of them should get involved now.
As soon as Ning Yan spoke, the two elders' faces visibly changed, but who cared about them?
As long as she was comfortable, that was enough.
After the wedding, Ning Mother and Ning Dad took their son's family back. Not long after they left, Ning Yan discovered she was pregnant.
The Cheng Family was overjoyed. Cheng Grandmother gave Ning Yan all her most treasured possessions, her mother-in-law gave her a card worth 100 million, and Ning Dad was even more direct, giving Ning Yan five percent of his shares.
Ning Yan's life became even more comfortable, with everything provided for her. In mid-April of the following year, she gave birth to a chubby boy.
"Yanyan, we'll never have another child again. You suffered so much."
Cheng Jue spoke these words sincerely. His wife was pregnant for nine months, and he experienced every discomfort except for his belly growing. Nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, uncontrollable temper, and even wanting to cry. Listen, how novel is that? He, a big man, would shed tears at the slightest provocation. When his wife gave birth, he was in pain for a full Twelve hours until the child was born, and only then did he return to normal.
He truly didn't regret suffering this hardship for his wife, and was even somewhat grateful to be able to endure these things for his delicate little wife. Otherwise, how could she have borne it?
But he could substitute this time, who could guarantee it next time?
So, it's better not to have more children. Anyway, they had a son. At worst, when their son gets married, they'll just make him have more children.
Ning Yan was also good at coaxing people. She stroked Cheng Jue's thin face and agreed, "Okay, okay, no more children. I'm also afraid that if I get pregnant again, you'll suffer all the pain. One child has its advantages too. We can focus all our energy on him and he won't feel neglected."
In the following years, after Cheng Jue finished his company affairs each day, he would return home to raise their child and accompany his wife. He rarely attended social gatherings with friends anymore, becoming a complete devoted husband and father.
Returning home this day, Cheng Jue pulled Ning Yan, gossiping, "Want to hear some gossip about that classmate of yours?"
"What happened to Shen Yuanyuan? Is something wrong?"
"The Li Family's company ran into some problems. The Li Family already looked down on Shen Yuanyuan's background, and they hadn't had children since they got married. Coupled with this company crisis, the Li Family told them to divorce, and the choice for the new daughter-in-law was already decided.
Unfortunately, those two were truly in love. Li Chengyu disagreed, so his mother personally drugged her son and put the woman in his bed.
And Shen Yuanyuan happened to walk in on it."
Ever since Cheng Jue learned that Li Qing'er had schemed against Ning Yan, he slowly cut off cooperation with the Li family. He truly didn't do anything extra, but things in this world are truly hard to explain. Just this small change led to the Li family's company frequently having problems a few years later.
Two days ago, Li Chengyu even called him to go out for a drink, but Cheng Jue refused, saying his wife kept a tight leash on him.
He wouldn't play dirty, but helping them was out of the question.
So, it was better not to meet.
He valued brotherhood, but Li Qing'er dared to harm his wife, so Li Chengyu shouldn't blame him for holding a grudge.
"So, what was Shen Yuanyuan's reaction?"
Ning Yan asking this wasn't to watch a show, but purely out of curiosity. That person was a powerful figure from the apocalypse; she wouldn't have done something to Li Chengyu in a fit of rage, would she?
"Her? She's quite clever!
The Li Family thought she wouldn't be able to stand it and would divorce Li Chengyu. Who would have thought that after she dragged Miss Wu from the room, she sent Li Chengyu to the hospital for an antidote?
She said it was an antidote, but it was really to get evidence that Li Chengyu was drugged.
Then, she acted as if nothing had happened, living her life as usual."
Ning Yan's big, watery eyes widened, "Shen Yuanyuan can endure that much?"
"On the surface, yes."
Cheng Jue's words clearly had a hidden meaning. "What about behind the scenes?"
Cheng Jue whispered something into his wife's ear.
Ning Yan clapped her hands excitedly, "Shen Yuanyuan is truly amazing!"
This is a true role model for our generation.
It was also a coincidence that Shen Yuanyuan got pregnant. After this incident, Li Chengyu felt incredibly guilty towards her, staying by her side every day and fighting against his parents at home.
Shen Yuanyuan contacted someone and bought medicine to make a man infertile. Li Chengyu can't have children now.
It was thought that the Li Family's matter had ended there.
Unexpectedly, Miss Wu from the Wu family wasn't having it and forced Li Chengyu to take responsibility, otherwise, she would accuse him of rape.
Originally, this matter could have been handled. It was a fact that Li Chengyu was drugged, and Miss Wu entered Li Chengyu's room, so a rape charge was unlikely to stick. At most, Li Mother would be implicated, as she was the one who administered the drug.
But, the understanding Shen Yuanyuan agreed to a divorce to save her husband.
Ning Yan knew what was going on as soon as she heard it. Shen Yuanyuan found Li Chengyu dirty. Anyway, the child in her belly was the Li Family's only one, and divorcing wouldn't affect her enjoyment of life.
Sure enough, not long after, she heard that Li Chengyu had given all his fixed assets to Shen Yuanyuan. She handled the assets and directly went abroad. Only after arriving overseas did she tell Li Chengyu that she was pregnant.
I have to say, amazing!
If the Li Family couldn't recover, Shen Yuanyuan's life wouldn't be affected in the slightest.
If the Li Family could rise again, no matter if Shen Yuanyuan found a man and married him in the future, or just played around and didn't marry, or even played the role of a devoted lover only raising her son and enjoying life, everything of the Li Family in the future would belong to Shen Yuanyuan's child. No one else could touch a single bit of it.
As expected of a powerful figure, she truly is a complete winner!
Ning Yan and Cheng Jue's child, Cheng Wenjing, was a prodigy from a young age. While others struggled to learn a special skill, he could grasp it almost instantly. He was truly the deepest nightmare for children his age.
So, after Cheng Wenjing graduated from university, Cheng Jue immediately put him in the company.
He had no choice; he worried too much every day. At just over fifty, his face already had noticeable wrinkles, while his wife, who was younger than him, looked like a young woman in her twenties even though their child was almost getting married. She was unbelievably youthful.
So, to be with his wife for a long, long time, he simply became a hands-off manager.
Then, the couple sweetly traveled the world.
