Chapter 515 – Remembrance of the Past; Startling Truth (5)

“It looked like Capital City Cheng’s had been devastated quite badly by some evil person…” Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but said so in a light voice.

Mo Xuanzun held onto her hand tightly, comforting her silently.

Given that all these had happened to generations before her, she didn’t quite feel the pain that her father was feeling right now. Nonetheless, the anger and the killer’s intent within her would not dissipate by itself.

After a long while, Cheng Biyuan was finally able to keep his emotion under control. He wiped away the tears on the corners of his eyes and cupped his hands at everyone there. “I apologize. I didn’t mean for you to see this.”

“No worries, Housemaster.”

Everybody shook their heads at the same time. They all understood the gravity of the matter and nobody would think poorly of the victim.

Seeing that her father had calmed down, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, what do you plan on doing?”

“Xiao Xiao, we need to first look for your grandmother. She had been so wronged…”

Talking about his mother, Cheng Biyuan’s eyes turned red again and his tears were about to fall. He tried very hard to force them back and said, “Speaking of, that was a big scandal within our family, but it wasn’t true. And it was aimed toward me, and my mother…”

Cheng Biyuan, almost losing control of his emotion once again had a difficult time even finishing up what he was saying.

Seeing Cheng Biyuan like that, Elder took over and said, “I know the incident as well, why don’t I recount it for you all. This all happened some 20 years ago, when Housemaster was just 13 years old. It was a summer night and there were a lot of noises coming from the main quarter and the entire Cheng’s were alerted. We heard that Sister-in-law Fang has cheated on her husband. As for the details of the event, nobody knew. When we rushed over, we saw that Sister-in-law Fang’s hair was messy and her clothes untidy and she wasn’t fully dressed. And Housemaster Cheng Yutang was beating her violently and scolding her for cheating at the same time. And that he had ran into her with another man just now.

“Truth be told, everybody’s immediately reaction was found that hard to believe. Not only was Sister-in-law Fang a warm and virtuous woman who would never do such a thing, she was also a classy, elegant, and exquisite looking in everybody’s mind. Most importantly, she had always been caring to everybody within the Cheng’s resident and were approved and supported boyfriend all of us. This happened so abruptly that nobody believed it.

“But it didn’t matter that the rest of us didn’t believe it, Cheng Yutang believed it. He saw it with his own eyes so that must be the truth. At the time, no matter how much Housemaster had pleaded, Cheng Yutang wouldn’t listen and even started beating up Housemaster. Sister-in-law Fang and more than once stood in front of Housemaster in order to protect him. Finally she said that Housemaster was not his son and asked that he be let go!

“Again, nobody believed that. After all, we all have eyes. We could all tell that Housemaster looked exactly the same as Cheng Yutang when he was young. Sister-in-law Fang was obviously lying but Cheng Yutang believed her and finally killed her with one palm.”

“Mom died. And after she had died, I never even saw her body. No matter how much I have searched or looked into it, I was never able to find her…” muttered Cheng Biyuan, tears streaming down his face.

“What about grandma’s family?” asked Cheng Xiao Xiao, perplexed.

If the event had blown up so much, why would her grandmother’s family just stood by and not look into the incident?

Hearing her question, the Elder shook his head, “Sister-in-law Fang has no family. She was brought home by Cheng Yutang when he was cultivating in the forbidden area. He ran into the unconscious Sister-in-law Fang in a cave and brought her home with him. After she had awaken, the two of them fell in love and your great grandfather approved the marriage and let them be wedded.”

“Ugh…”

Another unusual story that was hard to believe!

Everybody looked at each other. It was obvious that nobody has heard of anything like that before.
