Chapter 179 Song's Mother's Questioning
Song's mother's face instantly turned ugly. She did not doubt that Cheng Linhao was lying, after all, Song Qianyi had a criminal record.
"Lin Hao, don't worry, I'll call Song Qianyi over right away."
She must have done something shady again.
When Song Qianyi received the call from her mother, she was celebrating at home.
"I'll go with you."
"it is good."
Song Qianyi didn't think much of it, but she was a little surprised when she saw Cheng Linhao sitting on the sofa in the living room of the old house looking dejected.
"Mom, what do you want to see me about?"
With a cold expression, Song's mother slammed the teacup heavily on the table in anger.
"You still have the nerve to ask? I thought you were genuinely remorseful, but you've really disappointed me! Apologize to Lin Hao right now!"
Seeing Song Qianyi's mother question her without even asking any questions, Song Qianyi was very disappointed and even speechless.
Sitting on the sofa next to him, Cheng Linhao subtly curled the corners of his lips. He had long known that Song Qianyi's family ties were fragile and that she longed for a warm and harmonious family.
He didn't originally intend to be so ruthless, but Song Qianyi kept ruining his plans.
She really is a fool, but that also makes things convenient for him. He can use this to disappoint and upset her, so she won't have the energy to deal with him anymore.
Thinking of this, a dark glint flashed in Cheng Linhao's eyes. He needed to hurry up and deal with those tails behind him, otherwise, if Song Qianyi caught him, there would definitely be another big commotion.
He never imagined he would stumble because of that idiot Song Qianyi. He looked up at the man standing next to Song Qianyi, his face dark.
Perhaps it wasn't Song Qianyi who did this, but Ji Jingshen. After all, although Song Qianyi is somewhat clever, she definitely wouldn't have the ability to investigate him.
Cheng Linhao's expression softened slightly, but that didn't mean he would let Song Qianyi go. If he couldn't touch Ji Jingshen, he would touch the people around him.
Originally, Song's mother wanted to make Song Qianyi kneel in the study after she returned, but she was somewhat surprised to see Ji Jingshen come over with her. She had no choice but to question her in the living room, which was already giving her a lot of face.
But I never expected her to be so stubborn.
"Mom, why don't you ask Cheng Linhao what he did? Besides, Song Qianyu's decision to break up with him was her own."
Upon hearing the words "break up," Song's mother's face turned completely ugly.
"You actually threatened your sister to break up with you? Song Qianyi, you really disappoint me. If I had known you would do something like this, I shouldn't have let you come back in the first place."
“Starting today, you don’t need to go to the company anymore. Stay home and reflect on your actions. I’ll consider letting you come back to the company when you’ve truly turned over a new leaf.”
Upon hearing this, Song Qianyi's pupils contracted sharply, and she stared at her in disbelief.
The living room fell silent. Song's mother realized she had said the wrong thing, but thinking about how Song Qianyi had repeatedly tried to ruin the group's relationship, her anger flared up again.
Ji Jingshen frowned and pulled Song Qianyi into his arms, comforting her silently.
“Auntie, Qianyi has made a lot of contributions to the company since she came back, and every project she is in charge of has entered a critical stage. You don’t want to lose money, do you?”
A cold voice rang out in the living room. Song's mother looked somewhat embarrassed. She didn't want to make things so awkward in front of outsiders, but Song Qianyi was too immature. She just wanted to give her a warning.
"I will not agree. Even if you want to fire me, you should do so according to the company meeting. I will not listen to such a hasty decision."
Song Qianyi stared stubbornly at the woman in front of her. She never expected that the person who hurt her the most would be her own family.
He chuckled self-deprecatingly; Cheng Linhao's counterattack this time was truly ruthless.
Ji Jingshen also knew who the culprit was. He glanced coldly at Cheng Linhao and said sarcastically, "And shouldn't your aunt ask Cheng Linhao why Song Qianyu broke up with him?"
Song's mother looked suspicious and opened her mouth as if to ask for clarification, but she had already concluded that Song Qianyi was behind it all. If she were to question Cheng Linhao again, wouldn't that be a slap in her own face?
He was momentarily at a loss for words.
Seemingly sensing her embarrassment, Ji Jingshen took the initiative to bring up the matter.
"Mr. Cheng, next time you go to a brothel to find a woman, remember to wear a mask. Otherwise, if someone takes a picture of you, it will become a trending topic, which is not good for either the Song or Cheng companies. What do you think?"
Cheng Linhao, who had been smug, suddenly turned grim and stared intently at Ji Jingshen.
"What exactly is going on?"
Song's mother's face turned ashen. She hadn't expected the truth to be like this. She glanced awkwardly at Song Qianyi, who was still heartbroken. Although I felt a little guilty, I was too embarrassed to speak to her, so I could only question Cheng Linhao.
I never expected him to be such a hypocrite.
“Auntie, please let me explain. These are all things that happened in the past. I haven’t been in contact with those people for a long time. Besides, I’ve always been devoted to Xiaoyu. You’ve known my feelings all these years.”
Cheng Linhao tried to explain anxiously, but in his heart he wanted to curse Ji Jingshen eight hundred times over.
How dare they say this out loud? What man hasn't had affairs? He was just looking for someone to relieve his loneliness when he was lonely. It's something everyone does. Why are they making such a fuss about it?
Ji Jingshen helped the person in his arms to sit down on the sofa and slowly said, "Then maybe I investigated wrong. After all, you have such deep feelings for Song Qianyu, and the man who was hugging and kissing another woman at the hotel last week was definitely not you."
Cheng Linhao, who was anxiously explaining to Song's mother, turned pale instantly, and his fingers, placed at his side, trembled slightly.
How did he even know about this? He had already had all the surveillance footage deleted, so why was it still found out?
Seeing him like this, Song's mother understood everything. She had softened a little because of Cheng Linhao's explanation, but she pulled her hand back with a cold face.
"You young people should handle your own affairs. I have a bit of a headache, so I'm going upstairs to rest. If there's nothing else, you can go back now."
Song's mother left in a hurry, leaving only the three people in the living room looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Song Qianyi, you're really great."
Cheng Linhao looked at her with utter disappointment. "I thought you were just a little spoiled, but I never expected you to be so heartless. What good would it do you to ruin me?"
Seeing the man's exasperated state, Song Qianyi felt much better.
"Of course I'm happy, and my husband loves me and wouldn't want me to suffer any loss."
She hugged the man's arm tightly as if showing off, and Ji Jingshen's lips curled up slightly when he noticed her action.
Seeing the two of them being so sweet, Cheng Linhao was so angry he laughed.
"You don't need to put on an act in front of me. Does President Ji really believe that Song Qianyi truly loves you? No way, she only loves me. All she's doing now is trying to destroy me because she can't have me!"
