The Fake Daughter Is Not Innocent Novel - Chapter 150

Chapter 150: A Planned Encounter

Why did their names sound so similar? If not for the age issue, she would have thought that they were father and daughter.

She told Cheng Yang about this that night, hoping he would know something.

Cheng Yang was also very concerned about this.

He looked cold to Cheng Ya on the surface, but Xiao Ying knew that he regarded her as his last kin.

Cheng Yang did not know much about what had happened back then. He only knew that Cheng Ya had brought back a man but was opposed by Mother Cheng. Just as the two of them were about to elope, the man disappeared.

He didn’t know the rest.

But he knew that the man’s surname was not Cheng.

However, Xiao Ying felt that Cheng Yao must be the man from back then. She also felt that he was not someone who would break promises. There must be a misunderstanding.

The two of them chatted until late into the night before coming up with a suitable solution.

Xiao Ying had been deliberately getting close to Cheng Yao these few days. He seemed to have completely forgotten about the necklace. Every time he saw her, he would greet her with a normal expression.

On this day, Xiao Ying suddenly ran out with an anxious expression.

She had been hanging around Cheng Yao for a reason.

She knew that he would come out of the research lab at this time every day and visit the tearoom.

Except that something had gone wrong today. Cheng Yao had indeed come out, but he was not alone. Zhou Yao was standing beside him.

This was the first time they had met since what had happened last time.

The two of them looked at each other from afar. Xiao Ying felt embarrassed, but with the current situation, this was the least of her concerns.

She could only run past them with a clear look of anxiety on her face.

Sure enough, Cheng Yao asked, “Xiao Ying, what happened?”

Xiao Ying stopped and deliberately did not look at Zhou Yao. She tried her best to ignore his burning gaze and quickly said, “I just received news, Cheng Ya—”

“What happened to Cheng Ya?”

As soon as she said the name, Cheng Yao panicked and shouted.

Xiao Ying was shocked by his sensitivity to the name Cheng Ya. She paused and said, “It’s been controlled. I’ll send the necklace over now and calm her down.”

Cheng Yao said anxiously, “Where is she? I’ll go with you.”

Xiao Ying nodded.

A hint of contemplation flashed across Zhou Yao’s eyes. Seeing that they were leaving, he followed.

Xiao Ying could not refuse him, so she could only agree.

The three of them ran out of the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ door and saw Cheng Yang already waiting there.

Cheng Yang looked at Zhou Yao with a strange expression.

Xiao Ying quickly pulled him back.

Watching their interaction, Zhou Yao’s expression suddenly darkened.

They quickly got into the car. On the way, they remained silent. No one spoke as they quickly rushed to the city center.

They arrived at a Ming Yuan Hotel.

Cheng Yao’s expression turned strange. This did not look like a place where someone would jump off of.

Could it be… she was on the top floor?

After figuring things out, Cheng Yao walked towards the elevator but was stopped by Xiao Ying.

Xiao Ying no longer had an anxious expression. She said, “Follow me.”

Cheng Yao also realized that something was wrong. The doubts that he had overlooked in his panic rose to his heart bit by bit.

He had a vague guess. Looking at the private room door in front of him, he was actually a little nervous. He didn’t even have the courage to open the door.

Xiao Ying encouraged, “Academician Cheng, if you don’t explain things clearly, you might regret it for the rest of your life. Are you sure you don’t want to go in and see the truth?”

Cheng Yao was still wavering.

Cheng Yang opened the door impatiently.

In an instant, Cheng Ya’s and Cheng Yao’s eyes met.

Time seemed to have frozen.

It was a loud bang caused by the cup in Cheng Ya’s hand falling to the ground that startled them awake.

Cheng Yao walked in a little unsteadily. As soon as he approached, he received a slap on the face.

Cheng Ya withdrew her hand and her eyes turned red. She roared, “How dare you appear in front of me!”
