Cheng Wenru got off the car and handed the urn to Cheng Juan. She looked a little tired and seemed to be in a distressed state. Dad liked you the most. Take it, she said lightly.

Cheng Juan was dressed in white to convey his filial piety.

He bowed his head to look at the urn in Cheng Wenrus hands.

Before he was ready to accept it, Cheng Raohan, who had just got out of the car behind him yelled. He cant accept it!

Cheng Wenru frowned. She had always been headstrong. After hearing what he said, she immediately rebuked. Shut up! Now is not the time for your nonsense, nor is it the time to argue about seniority!

She only knew that Old Master Cheng would have hoped for Cheng Juan to do this.

Cheng Raohan ignored her and just smiled coldly at Cheng Juan. Im not causing a scene. He, Cheng Juan, has never belonged to the Cheng family!

He didnt wait for Cheng Wenrus response.

A group of wealthy aristocrats from the capital were gathered at the foot of the mountain.

Cheng Wenru naturally couldnt believe it and frowned. What rubbish are you saying!

Cheng Raohan directly took a file from his subordinate and threw it at her with a smile. What am I saying? You can find out after taking a look at it yourself.

After that, he didnt wait for Cheng Wenrus response, snatched the urn from her hands, and walked up the mountain.

Cheng Raohans entourage followed behind him.

First Hall Master and Second Hall Master looked at each other before asking Cheng Juan, Third Young Master, Eldest Master just

Cheng Juan lowered his head. His long hair concealed his expression, and he was freezing as his entire body was wet. After a long while, he said lightly, Thats right. I dont belong to the Cheng family.

After that, he stood up and walked up the mountain.

Qin Ran followed behind him.

He actually admitted it?

This was explosive news to the crowd at the foot of the mountain.

They all looked at one another in shock.

This will be interesting

Hes not part of the Cheng family, and considering the feud between him and Cheng Raohan

Everyone was speechless.

The group discussed the topic intently and stared at Cheng Juans back view strangely.

In the crowd, Second Uncle Xu, who had just returned from Continent M, looked at Elder Xu in shock. Elder Xu whats going on?

Elder Xu shook his head. Im not sure as well, but judging from Cheng Raohans attitude, I dont think its fake.

If it were fake, Cheng Raohan wouldnt have dared to say it so openly.

Third Young Master is in a dangerous situation now. Butler Xu became worried. I originally thought that the Third Young Master could stabilize Miss Qins position in the Research Institute, but now it seems difficult.

It wasnt just the Xu family that discussed the matter.

In less than an hour, all of the families in Beijing knew that Cheng Juan wasnt a biological son of the Cheng family, and this topic became more popular than Old Master Chengs death.

After several hours, the funeral was completed.

Old Master Chengs tomb was covered with flowers.

Almost everyone was gone.

Cheng Juan continued standing in front of the tomb.

Old Master Chengs death had a great impact on Cheng Wenru. However, she was still worried about Cheng Juans problem and stayed alert.

She handed a black silk umbrella to Qin Ran and said in a hoarse voice, Ill be going back to the Cheng family to settle some matters. You can accompany him here.

Cheng Wenru glanced at Cheng Juan.

She still refused to believe it.

Although Cheng Juan didnt express it much, she took note of his attitude towards Old Master Cheng. She recalled how much effort he put into getting the Daylily from the underground auction

Including her company

Cheng Wenru straightened her back and went down the mountain.

She was going back to fight a battle with Cheng Raohan.

If she lost

Cheng Juans position in the capital seemed to be a one-sided issue.

She would never allow it.

Qin Ran watched as Cheng Wenru went down the mountain and walked to Cheng Juans side with the umbrella.

Cheng Juan raised his head. He took the umbrella from her and stared at the tombstone for a long time before saying, Do you know why he wanted me to forgive him?

Qin Ran held his other hand tightly.

My mother died in his hands, Cheng Juan said softly. When he was younger, he wanted to keep me out of the spotlight. I understand why now. However, if he didnt raise me, I wouldnt be here today. In reality, he has never treated me badly, Cheng Juan faintly said.

Even though he was worried, he never said anything.

He knew Gu Xichi, but he never told him.

But

When Qin Ran asked him about it, he still let Gu Xichi meet with Jiang Dongye.

Qin Ran nodded. According to what Cheng Wenru said, Cheng Juan found out when he was about twelve years old.

At the age of twelve, he found out that his biological mother had died in the hands of his adoptive father. His adoptive father did not let him shine, but he treated him well.

Qin Ran squeezed his hand and comforted him silently.

Lets go back. Cheng Juan took one last look before taking her down the mountain.

He lowered his head, glanced at Qin Ran, and took a deep breath.

Qin Ran and Cheng Juan returned to Ting Lan.

Both of them were caught in the rain, so they went to their rooms to take a shower.

Qin Ran was faster than Cheng Juan. When she went downstairs, Cheng Mu was about to go upstairs. Seeing Qin Ran was coming downstairs, he quickly said, Elder Xu is here.

Elder Xu and Second Uncle Xu were there.

Second Uncle Xu had great respect for Qin Ran.

He bowed. Miss Qin.

Teacher Xu. Qin Ran politely greeted him before looking at Elder Xu.

Are both of you ok? Elder Xu frowned and looked at her. Do you want to move to the Xu family temporarily?

No need. Qin Ran shook her head.

Elder Xu was not at ease. You should be careful of the Qin family. The Ouyang family definitely made a move. I told you before that shes not simple.

They were definitely involved in the situation regarding the Cheng family.

Qin Ran nodded. I know.

She seemed too indifferent, so Elder Xu said solemnly, The situation in Beijing has changed drastically, so you have to be careful. Im not joking about Ouyang Wei

Qin Ran took the teacup handed over by Cheng Mu and placed it on the table. She smiled, but her eyes were icy. Do you think that the Cheng Family can be overthrown by a random person in the capital?
