Run Away from My Honey a Thousand Times - Chapter 346
Chapter 346 Admire Her
Cheng Pingting discovered that the atmosphere was much better, and Ling Yue actually let her and Ye Qianxun stay for dinner. This really made her feel a little flattered.
“I heard that the people of Chengs have imprisoned you. Why?” Ye Youran stared at Cheng Pingting for a long time before finally hesitating to ask her.
Cheng Pingting raised her head and looked at Ye Youran. She didn’t know if she was too sensitive. She always felt that Ye Youran’s attitude towards her was a little strange. She wasn’t as careless as before, but rather a little reserved.
“It’s just a misunderstanding. It’s nothing.” Cheng Pingting was a little uncomfortable being stared at by her, so it was not appropriate to talk about her family’s embarrassment.
A complicated expression flashed in Ye Youran’s eyes. Seeing that she was unwilling to say anything, she did not force herself to lower her head and continue eating her blood supplement meal.
Sitting beside Night Youran, Ling Yue raised his eyebrows and looked at Cheng Pingting. He discovered that Night Youran was especially sensitive to Chengs during this period of time.
Originally, Ye Youran thought about letting Cheng Pingting stay overnight after dinner because she had something she wanted to ask her.
However, Cheng Pingting had just finished her meal when she received a phone call. Ye Youran did not know who she was talking to. Her expression was a little nervous. Not long after, she politely said goodbye to them.
“Aren’t you going with me?” Ye Youran kicked Ye Qianxun and raised his head to see that Cheng Pingting had already driven away.
“I want to inspect the White Tiger regularly. She is only returning to the Cheng Clan. Those people do not dare to touch her.” Ye Qianxun didn’t care and drank his tea leisurely.
“Aren’t you afraid that she will return to the Cheng Clan and be imprisoned and bullied again?” Ye Youran frowned and said.
“If she doesn’t want to say it, don’t bother. Anyway, the people of Chengs definitely won’t dare to hurt her.” Ye Qianxun’s words were as lazy and casual as before, and in the end, he had an additional affirmation.
Ye Youran didn’t understand where Ye Qianxun’s confidence came from, but it didn’t matter, he had nothing to do with Cheng Pingting, did he? It’s just… Forget it.
At this moment, Cheng Pingting, who was driving, received another phone call from her mother.
“Why are you so slow? Where are you now? Didn’t I tell you not to return to F City for a short time? There’s something at home, you have to stay …”
Hearing her mother’s constant urging, Cheng Pingting felt a chill in her heart. Finally, she replied softly, “We’ll be there in half an hour.”
Looking down at the bruise on his arm, Cheng Pingting’s eyes became dimmer and dimmer. He raised his head and drove faster, heading straight for Chengs.
He had just arrived when he heard a mocking laugh.
“I thought I was really Miss Qian Jin, but I actually asked so many of us to wait for you here.”
Cheng Jingya was sitting beside Elder Cheng, pouring tea for the old man. She raised her head and looked at Cheng Pingting, who had hurriedly returned. Her voice was filled with disdain and ridicule.
Cheng Pingting was accustomed to these things. She lowered her head and walked to the hall, “Is there anything wrong?”
“Child, you haven’t learned anything well outside for so many years. You have no manners at all. Your grandfather is here, so you don’t know how to shout!” Anhe, Cheng Pingting’s mother, lectured angrily.
“Grandfather.” Cheng Pingting looked at Elder Cheng with some restraint and whispered.
She was not accustomed to looking at the Cheng Clan’s old man like this, or to saying that she hated and rejected the entire Cheng Clan, and she was helpless.
Old Man Cheng had never liked Cheng Pingting. He looked at her face and said inexplicably, “It doesn’t look like Jin Xiong at all.”
Cheng Jinxiong was Cheng Pingting’s father. He rarely showed his face because of eye disease. He was a beautiful man. When he was young, he married the first wife and gave birth to Cheng Jingting and Cheng Jingya. After the first wife died of illness, he gave birth to Cheng Pingting with his current wife, An He.
An He was not a daughter of a famous socialite. Her figure was delicate and ordinary. She was only a maid in Chengs. Back then, Cheng Jinxiong suffered from eye disease and had a night with her. She happened to be pregnant. That was why Old Man Cheng asked An He to take care of him and give her a name.
“Do you have a boyfriend outside?” Elder Cheng looked at Cheng Pingting’s delicate appearance and frowned slightly. After all, this appearance was too plain compared to his second granddaughter, Cheng Jingya.
Cheng Pingting was stunned for a moment. The Cheng Clan had never cared about her. Her grandfather’s sudden question made her feel a little strange.
“Of course I don’t have a boyfriend. Pingting isn’t as outstanding as Xiao Ya. How could a man fall for her?” An He was the first to speak with a humble tone.
“Aunt An, you underestimated Pingting. She’s amazing. She secretly dated a man for three years without us knowing.” On the side, Cheng Jingya looked like she was watching a play.
“You still dare to say it! You deliberately snatched it …”
Cheng Pingting remembered Luo Zhongwen and immediately became angry. Although she no longer liked that man, the so-called sister in front of her actually used her means to steal her boyfriend. Now, she actually had the nerve to gloat.
“Robbing what? Pingting, you better explain yourself clearly.” Cheng Jingya’s expression was calm as she glared at her sinisterly.
Cheng Jingya had always been an obedient girl in front of Elder Cheng. At most, she would occasionally indulge herself. She could not let Cheng Pingting ruin her image.
An He saw that Cheng Jingya was angry, so she immediately turned to look at her and comforted her, “Xiao Ya, don’t be angry. This child Pingting has been rebellious and disobedient since childhood. Please forgive her as your elder sister.”
‘”Ping Ting, what kind of attitude are you taking?” Anhe said with a stern face. “You’ve been learning more and more disgracefully these past few years!” She whispered to her sister, “What kind of attitude are you taking? You’re talking to your sister in such a tone!”
Cheng Pingting bit her lips tightly and didn’t say anything in the end. She looked up at Cheng Jingya and smiled complacently when she saw her.
She was already used to it. Her biological mother had always cared for the two children born to her ex-husband. She could not speak out, nor challenge her brother and sister. She could only admit her grievances, otherwise, she would be the one to be unlucky.
“Alright, be quiet.” Elder Cheng shouted impatiently.
She turned to look at her little granddaughter, who had a mediocre academic background and a mediocre appearance, and said, “Pingting, no one can deny that you are the third young miss of Chengs.”
Cheng Pingting sat opposite them obediently and listened carefully to the old man’s words. Although she did not want to stay here, there was nothing she could do.
The old man continued, “I don’t care if you had a boyfriend or not. If it’s someone who can’t get on the stage, then we’ll split them up. You’re already at marriageable age. The Bai Clan has always had business dealings with us in Chengs …”
Cheng Pingting was stunned. She immediately interrupted the old man, “Grandpa, wasn’t the Bai Clan’s elder sister engaged since she was young?” Could it be that Cheng Jingya didn’t like him, so she pushed him to me?
Cheng Jingya glared at her angrily and smiled disdainfully, “Do you have a tutor or not? You actually dare to interrupt Grandpa’s words? You really have daughters like mothers.”
Cheng Jingya’s words directly cursed An He.
An He’s expression was extremely ugly, but she also suppressed it. She raised her face and vented all of her dissatisfaction towards her daughter. “Pingting! What exactly is going on with you? Who are you hanging out with these days? Why aren’t you obedient?”
“The last time I told you to stay in your room, you actually sneaked away. That banquet made everyone think that we were abusing you, and it ruined our reputation as Chengs.”
It was good that An He didn’t mention this matter. As soon as he mentioned it, Old Man Cheng’s face darkened.
“Who was the one who took you away that day? The twins from the Ling Family said that a man surnamed Ye sent you to the hospital? You just lost some blood. Do you need to go to the hospital? Ping Ting, you are also from our Cheng Clan. Why are you so shameless to run with a man … “The more Old Man Cheng said this, the angrier he became. Especially on the day of the banquet, Ling Yue almost demolished his Cheng Clan.
Cheng Pingting hid her hands in her sleeves and clenched them into fists, suppressing them.
An He still glared at her daughter discontentedly and taught her a lesson, “Ye, there is no family surnamed Ye in our circle. Ping Ting, pay more attention to your private life and don’t cause us any trouble.”
Hearing this lesson, Cheng Pingting could only chuckle in her heart. This was her home, and she could not afford such a home.
“What is your relationship with the Ling Family?” A hint of nervousness flashed through Cheng Jingya’s eyes as she suddenly asked.
She clearly remembered that on Christmas Day, the twins in Lings were actually protecting Cheng Pingting.
Elder Cheng and Anhe were both very surprised. Everyone looked at Cheng Pingting.
Cheng Pingting gritted her teeth and whispered, “We’ve only met a few times. We’re not familiar with each other.”
Old Man Cheng did not understand the situation very well. He raised his eyebrows and asked with a serious expression, “How did you know the Ling Family? Didn’t you always live in City F?”
As he spoke, Elder Cheng asked suspiciously, “Ling Yue has taken a fancy to you?”
“How is that possible? Just her appearance.” Cheng Jingya did not wait for Cheng Pingting to speak, and she took the lead in replying with contempt.
“I’ve only been with their children for a few days. Third Young Lady Lings talked to me straightforwardly for a while. President Ling doesn’t know me.” Cheng Pingting ignored Ye Qianxun and said softly.
“What a good method, actually knowing how to start with a child.” Cheng Jingya glared at her with anger and unwillingness.
Old Man Cheng’s expression turned slightly better as he listened to this. “Ling Yue, don’t think about it. It’s impossible for him to fall in love with you.” The old man spoke in a straightforward tone, without the slightest bit of decoration.
“I didn’t.” When Cheng Pingting heard that they had misunderstood her, she immediately spoke nervously.
She had contacted Ling Yue’s family twice. Of course, she knew that the man was not easy to provoke. Ling Yue doted on his wife so much, so she naturally could not have unreasonable thoughts. Furthermore, she was afraid that he would be so scared that she would die.
“Alright, alright. I’m just telling you, don’t foolishly seduce Ling Yue. When the time comes, you’ll lose the face of the Cheng family.” Old Man Cheng clearly didn’t believe her appearance and waved his hand impatiently. “Since you can talk to the Ling family’s two children, then if you have time, you can please them more. When the time comes, it will be of great use.”
Cheng Pingting’s eyes darkened. She liked Lings’s pair of cute treasures very much, but her grandfather actually wanted her to use them. Cheng Pingting just felt that it would be better to see them rarely in the future.
“Third Young Madam Ling, how is her friendship with you?”
Ye Youran? Cheng Pingting thought about the woman from Ling Yue’s family. She felt that she was really special. Her appearance was undoubtedly beautiful, but her personality was exceptionally lively, and she was even a little willful.
Cheng Pingting was somewhat envious of Ye Youran.
