Passionate Devotion



204 It’s best not to meet the first 8

On the other hand, Leng Yejin had left himself in his office. He was too lazy to go home after work.

In the past, he did not take the house seriously and often took care of the office. After the house was filled with smoke and fire, he returned home more often. Now, it was cold and there was no noise from the children or the woman walking around. There was only a group of maids who were annoying.

Secretary Yu placed the dinner she had ordered on her desk and hesitated for a moment. “Miss Shanshan will have her summer break next week. Miss Tong has to work and can’t take care of the child during the day. At that time, we can bring miss Shanshan home to have a chat.”

“Who said I’m going to bring her back? it’s her daughter, not mine! Did I give birth to it?”

Secretary Yu kept quiet. She was not miss Tong’s daughter. She was her brother’s daughter.

Leng Yejin slammed the document shut. He could not get rid of the anger in his chest. He sat in front of his office desk and had his dinner. He did not know how much that woman and Shanshan enjoyed their dinner at their new home. They were two ingrates! Shanshan didn’t even know how to call him to ask if his father wanted to have dinner. She had doted on him for nothing!

He slammed his chopsticks on the table, picked up his car keys, and went to the cemetery alone.

It was already dark. He stood in front of the tombstone, lit a cigarette, and took two deep puffs.

He didn’t smoke often, and even hated the smell of cigarettes. He only lit one when he was particularly annoyed, because the gloominess in his heart couldn’t be dispersed.

“Back then, if you had obediently accepted my arrangements and let me find someone to take care of Shanshan instead of forcing me to get married and find a woman to take care of Shanshan, I wouldn’t have been so ashamed that I couldn’t say anything when a woman questioned me about being able to consummate my marriage but not take care of Shanshan. I don’t mind you and Shanshan being my burden. You should understand.”

Leng Yejin finished smoking the entire cigarette. He felt a pang of pain in his heart.”If you can hold on for a few more years, I might have a way to make you fully recover,”

In the dark night, her twin brother Zhou yeshuo’s gentle and elegant smile seemed to appear. His words from back then floated in her ears.

“Not only do you have to survive in the Leng family, but you also have to worry about my illness. It’s the critical years of fighting for the right of inheritance now, and anyone will become your weakness. I don’t want to be your weakness, and I don’t want Shanshan to be your weakness either, Yingluo.”

Ye Jin, my greatest wish is to see you take over the Leng family. You must help me fulfill it. Even if my body is not strong enough to see it happen, I will still watch it from above. Don’t disappoint me. Otherwise, I will not die in peace.

Leng Yejin threw the cigarette butt on the ground. He stomped on it with his shiny leather shoes, extinguishing the fire.

“I’ve already taken him down. He’s the head of the Leng family. Shuo, you watch from above. Perhaps he can rest in peace?”

The Zhou yeshuo on the gravestone didn’t seem to be satisfied.”You haven’t really taken over the Leng family, you haven’t gotten the key to the Treasury, Yingluo!”

Leng Yejin blinked. The portrait of Zhou yeshuo on the tombstone was just a portrait of his deceased self. It was as if what he had heard was just an illusion.

On the other side.

In the Xu family, Xu Qian walked into Xu Ke’s room. sis, I have something to tell you.

“What is it?”

“Isn’t brother Kuo working in the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development? He told me that it was my future brother-in-law who bought the apartment.”

Xu Han sat in front of the dressing table, blushing. “If you want to buy an apartment, then buy an apartment. What’s the big deal?”

“But when we were handling the property ownership certificate, the names of brother-in-law and his sister-in-law were written on the certificate. Don’t you feel uncomfortable? She didn’t seduce our brother-in-law behind his back because she was a widow, right?”
