。"Ye Mingjue spoke in a low voice. 。Ji Lingchen stared at Ye Mingjue in surprise, knowing he couldn't figure out his actions. 。Night Mingjue didn't arrive late because he heard from Ji Lingchen that h...He racked his brains and finally thought of Chengyun, his daughter.

Ever since he returned to Longcheng, he hasn't shown his face much. This is because his power and status are not as good as before, and many people who were inferior to him have surpassed him. He can't bear to show his old face.

Secondly, because he had separated from his wife and both sons had gone abroad, he had no one around him. He didn't know where to go, so he just stayed in the villa on the outskirts of the city, occasionally going out fishing. Besides that, he had no other hobbies.

His life was extremely regular, and he seemed like an ordinary old man in every way. No one knew what terrible things he had done in the past.

And the only thing that broke his routine was Chengyun, his daughter.

Although his status in Long City is not what it used to be, Cheng Hongzheng never stops thinking about reclaiming what he has lost.

He was getting old, and his two sons were both worthless. After going abroad, they didn't work hard every day, only thinking about spending money and living a carefree life. He could only set his sights on Chengyun, his illegitimate daughter.

As long as Cheng Yun could marry into a prominent family, he would be successful and his entire family would prosper. In the future, someone would help him manage his business, and when others saw him, they would all respectfully call him Mr. Cheng!

In Longcheng, the most prominent family is undoubtedly the Ye Family.

And the two young masters of the Ye family and his daughter are about the same age, so it's not impossible for them to get together.

How else can we explain the existence of fate His daughter inexplicably joined the entertainment company of that young master from the Night family. This is more like heaven's arrangement than a coincidence.

Cheng Hongzhen had always been a man who got what he wanted, and he felt that heaven would always look after him.

He didn't want much, just to be related to the Ye family.

Even if her daughter can't marry Ye Zi Rui or Ye Zi Yu, marrying a cousin or nephew from the Ye family is still acceptable. It just can't be some random ordinary person. After all, marriage should benefit him.

Cheng Hongzhen was calculating his own gains when he was suddenly approached by reporters, accusing him of corruption during his time as vice chairman of a certain foundation.

He had the reporter kicked out, and as a result, the story broke the next day, causing a huge uproar.

Cheng Hong-zhen wouldn't believe for a second that there was no mastermind behind this.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He drove his assistant out of the study and personally called Chengyun.

Cheng Yun was at work when he received his call. He couldn't figure out what he was up to this time: "I'm at the office, can't talk too long on the phone, please get to the point."

"Did you offend someone" Cheng Hongzhen asked gruffly as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Offend someone" Cheng Yun was completely baffled.

She has been holed up at the company these days, with no time to watch the news, and she doesn't know that Cheng Hongzhen is in trouble.

"If you haven't offended anyone, why would someone come digging into my head" Cheng Hongzhen was convinced that this had something to do with Chengyun.

His daughter, normally speaking, sounded a little unpleasant. She had a face that never smiled, and just looking at her made people feel dejected.

If he lived among ordinary people, it wouldn't be a big deal. But he just happened to join the Ye family's company.

Maybe she's just like Miss Wu Jiatang, who angered Young Master Ye and ended up with a nose full of ashes. Perhaps that's why she got dragged into this mess too.

Chengyun detected that Chenghong's tone was off, but this time she didn't hold back: "I don't know what you're talking about. If you think I did something wrong, please just say it directly. This roundabout way of speaking is confusing for me."

Cheng Hongzhen was so angry that his nose wrinkled: "Do you dare to be strong If it weren't for you, how would anyone have dug up my past when I was the deputy director of the foundation and took bribes"

Cheng Yun, hearing him say that, guessed a few points. He typed a few keywords on the computer and searched for them. He quickly saw the hot news article.

She was completely baffled by Cheng Hongzhen's imagination. What could this possibly have to do with her

“There’s no wall that can keep secrets forever. Once something is done, it will eventually come to light. Instead of calling me to reprimand me, you should consider how to handle the media. I heard that if you return the money you owe, you might get a lighter sentence. You don't need that money anyway; it's better to give it back.” Chengyun said.

She didn't mean it maliciously, but Cheng Hongzhen heard it and couldn't help but feel blood rushing to his head: What do you mean I'm holding onto something useless If I could withdraw, I would have withdrawn a long time ago…”

This happened during a time when his business was struggling. Many factories were shutting down, office buildings were half-empty, and some companies went bankrupt and never recovered.

Because he had been the vice president of the foundation and earned some money, even if he went downhill afterwards, he wouldn't end up on the street. He could still save himself.

In fact, that money had already been emptied by Cheng Hongzhen. He was used to getting something for nothing and wouldn't think of doing things the honest way. It would be like the sun rising in the west if he were to give back the money he swallowed.

"Explain to me clearly what happened! If you offended the Ye family, go personally to apologize. Even if you have to kneel down, make them forgive you. Otherwise, I'll pretend I don't have a daughter like you!" Cheng Hongzhen said angrily, then hung up the phone.

Cheng Yun couldn't help but laugh and cry at this.

Apologize in person

She probably came to the door, but no one knows what her identity is.

Besides, isn't the Ye family so close

Cheng Yun glanced at the phone screen, which was gradually dimming, and bit her lip with a self-deprecating smile.

Not long after, Cheng Hongzhen's text message came over, still urging her to apologize to the Ye family.

Cheng Yun glanced at the message and deleted it without a second thought.

But then another popped up, a very unfamiliar number. Chengyun couldn't remember ever seeing it before.

"Ms. Chengyun, I wonder if there's a chance we could have dinner together sometime"

That person's tone was polite, but that person didn't know she wasn't the Chengyun she used to be. Of course, when faced with such requests from strangers, she would reject them.

"Miss Chengyun, rest assured, I only want to have dinner with you. Perhaps at the dinner table, we can reach a pleasant agreement." The man said meaningfully, and Chengyun couldn't understand what he meant.

She frowned and hung up the phone.

Needless to say, this must be another scheme cooked up by Cheng Hongzhen's people!

Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Xin Huai listened to the busy tone after being hung up, his face sinking.

This is the second time he's invited a girl after coming to Lóngchéng. The first one was like Yún Qíngxī, someone who's hard to deal with, and the second one is like Chéngyún, a thorny cactus.

After all, none of them went smoothly.mself, could Mr. Ye think that this punishment was too light and intend to settle the score again"Yes, I have something to discuss with Mr. Liang." Ye Qiu's tone was not at all aggressive.On the contr...
