Chapter 147: Chapter 146 She Needs Us (Second Update, Please Vote)
Liang Xuan was locked outside by his parents. After yelling for a long time with no door opening, he wondered what big issue had happened. He wanted to find Pei Zhan, but then remembered he had been instructed to keep an eye on Cheng Chili, so he immediately sent someone to track him.
However, he was a step too late, and the person sent reported that Cheng Chili had already left.
But Pei Zhan had warned him that Cheng Chili would look for Fu Zhen, so he sent people to watch outside the Fu Family’s residence.
With a clear target, things became much easier.
Very soon, the news that Cheng Chili had swiftly entered the Ning Family reached Liang Xuan.
Just as Liang Xuan was about to deliver the news to Pei Zhan, in the main courtyard under the gradually encompassing evening shadows, the room with tightly shut doors had finally finished interrogating Liang Zhi.
"The truth is just this truth, the process is just this process. If there’s anything else you want to ask, go ahead."
Liang Zhi spoke until his mouth was dry and grabbed the teapot on the table to pour into his mouth.
Liang Chen stood under the curtain, as if struck by lightning, unable to move for a long time. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
He stared blankly ahead, suddenly, with two ’smack’ sounds, he slapped himself twice!
Su Xinger, also in a daze, was startled by him!
Instinctively she reached to grab his hand, but he said, "I was muddled! When I saw that dagger by the river before, I should have been more curious about the origin of ’Miss Fu’!
"How could I have missed the first meeting with little aunt? I only thought that brother five wouldn’t lie to me and was on guard against her having an ulterior motive towards the Liang Family! Didn’t I think why I felt close to her? How could my dear aunt harm me?!
"I truly deserve to die!"
Saying this, he slapped himself twice again.
This time, Su Xinger didn’t even reach out.
Who can you blame for having soft ears?
Resurrection sounds ridiculous, but if it involves one’s own kin, who wouldn’t hope it’s true? Who wouldn’t rather believe than not?
"Did you say brother five?" Liang Zhi looked up upon hearing this, "What exactly did he tell you? Aunt also said this guy was whispering in your ear!"
Liang Chen recounted how Fu Zhen climbed over the Liang family’s wall, only to be caught red-handed by Pei Zhan.
"Now I understand why there’s talk of climbing over the wall! She was returning to her own home! Climbing her own wall!
"Back in the day, how often did she climb walls? Wasn’t it always me catching her right on time from below? I deserve to die even more! Hearing about climbing walls should have raised my suspicions!"
Liang Chen spoke until his eyes were red.
Liang Zhi rolled his eyes, "That guy keeps a straight face all day, never thought he harbors such suspicion!"
Liang Chen was agitated, pacing back and forth in the room, then immediately called Su Xinger: "Quickly have someone clean her courtyard, and come with me to the Ning Family to bring her back!
"She’s become so skinny, like skin and bones, Father would have broken my legs if he knew we let her wander!
"Moreover, inform Mother and Aunt about this news to cheer them up a bit!"
After saying this, he was about to walk out.
Liang Zhi hurriedly rushed forward to stop him: "Don’t!
"Bringing her back with such fanfare, do you fear Xu the Scoundrel won’t find out? Aunt still has her mother and brother at the Ning Family, you know her nature, how could she bear to leave them?
"Even if she agrees to return, if Xu the Scoundrel coerces by threatening her family, since he’s disguising as Miss Ning, what can we do then?
"There’s not a clue about the dagger case, what can we do to Xu Yin? Also, how do you intend to settle her? How do you refer to her to the outside world?"
"Then what should I do? Can you bear leaving her outside alone? If your aunt-in-law knew, she might hit me too!"
Liang Chen was frustrated, and his eyes turned even redder.
Su Xinger came over: "Aunt had already told me before, this matter shouldn’t be publicized, no matter how much heartache it brings, only a few of us should know the inside story.
"Moreover, such inexplicable things are impossible to explain. If Mother and Aunt can’t handle the shock due to their age, what then? Aunt wouldn’t approve your actions."
Liang Chen paused immediately.
Su Xinger continued: "Currently the most critical thing is how to deal with that Xu Yin! It’s inconvenient for us to fall out with him now, but we immediately have to find a way to break off contact! I will not let this scoundrel continue to disgust us!"
Liang Zhi glanced at them, then said, "I was also thinking like you before, but Aunt scolded me later.
"So now, I don’t think we should cut off relations; instead, entering the enemy’s camp and maintaining this close tie is beneficial for knowing ourselves and the enemy.
"Not only should we avoid cutting ties, but ideally, we should actively engage with him! Figure out his baseline, see how deep his skills and what the power behind him truly are!"
Su Xinger looked at Liang Chen, waiting for him to make a decision.
Liang Chen gazed forward with barely restrained anger and hatred in his eyes.
He said slowly, word by word, "As long as it benefits revenge, pretending to be on good terms is not impossible!"
"Very well then." Su Xinger took a deep breath, "Although I temporarily don’t agree, we cannot sever the connection completely.
"Now that the Ning Family has turned into a merchant’s house, I heard Mrs. Ning was even harassed at their doorstep by that Fu person, it’s outrageous.
"First, we need to support her, prevent such troubles. Let’s think of a way to build this relationship!"
"Sister-in-law is right! We cannot sever ties with Aunt; she needs us, needs the Liang Family! Thus, we must come up with a suitable reason to establish connections with the Ning Family but make sure Xu the Scoundrel finds no clues!"
Liang Chen’s lowered hands clenched into fists, he took a deep breath and said, "It’s infuriating that Fu Jun is so incompetent, but if his character was decent, even a bit dull, I would have supported him! Letting Aunt and her family secure some status among the nobility, they can then connect openly with us."
Liang Zhi said: "Aunt’s brother, Mr. Ning, seems talented, with good character, and could be cultivated a bit. But he is still young, and it’s early for him to stand independently."
Liang Chen nodded: "Let’s take it step by step."
Upon saying this, he looked towards Liang Zhi and couldn’t help but smack the back of his head: "You brat! You knew the truth back then, but still dared to hide it and kept us in the dark!"
Liang Zhi held his head and wailed.
After the scolding, Liang Chen turned to Su Xinger: "Wife, tomorrow you should go to the Ning Family, or invite Mrs. Ning and Aunt out, and find a place to discuss this matter first."
Su Xinger nodded: "Don’t worry, even if you didn’t say, I’d have to make this trip, leave it to me!"
The Liang Family finally had the initiative and regained some sense of peace. They decided to let Liang Zhi go to the Ning Family at night to inform Fu Zhen first.
After Pei Zhan had arranged the camp’s affairs, he hurriedly reached the outside of the Ning Mansion, just in time to see Liang Zhi riding quickly into the Ning Mansion.
