Chapter 8: Hanging From a Tree

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Cheng Xin removed the brick and took out an iron box with a password lock, generating a cloud of dust.

The password had long been memorized. Cheng Xin opened the iron box. Inside was some money that she had saved since she was a child and a wooden button in her swaddling clothes when she was abandoned.

When she was young, Cheng Xin had already known that she was not the biological daughter of the Cheng family.

But out of gratitude to the Cheng family, she let Cheng Wei do whatever he wanted, even though she was always the obedient and sensible child.

No matter how much Cheng Wei misbehaved, she did not get angry.

Cheng Xin took the iron box away and put the bricks back.

It was flawless.

Cheng Xin was delighted. Before she left, she stopped and looked around the dog house.

It was not easy to come here, but she had to leave a gift for her good “family.”

A hint of craftiness flashed in Cheng Xin’s eyes.

Ten minutes later, she returned the same way she came and stood by the roadside.

She flagged down another taxi, and as soon as she got in, Cheng Xin said impatiently, “Master, please take me to the most famous snack street.”

After three years in the slums, what made Cheng Xin the most uncomfortable was the unappetizing food.

This time, she had to eat what she hadn’t eaten for three years!

…

It was night.

Two luxury cars drove into the Cheng family villa.

“Dad, Mom! What a coincidence, you guys are back too!”

A young girl in a princess dress got out of a luxury car. She looked at the Cheng couple, who got out of the other car with joy and pounced on them.

This was the precious pearl of the Cheng family, Cheng Wei.

“Didn’t you get out of Class A a long time ago? Where did you go to play?”

Cheng Wei’s mother, Xue Lin, gently held Cheng Wei’s hand. Although her words were reproachful, they were more doting.

“I went to Li Corporation today, but unfortunately, I didn’t see Li Qun.”

The family of three walked towards the villa, as Cheng Wei said.

“But the person who received me is my fan. She said that she would try her best to apply to Li Qun and try to let us meet.”

Cheng Wei was determined to win, and she was beaming with joy when she spoke.

She was only 21 this year, had just graduated from university, and was already a beauty blogger with 50 million fans on H Nation’s most popular video software.

Cheng Wei had a hot body, good looks, and knew how to dance, managing to attract the attention of countless people.

She could earn a lot of money just by live broadcasting every day.

However, unsatisfied with just being an internet celebrity, she planned to enter the entertainment industry next. At the same time, she would use Cheng Kun’s name to do charity work and rub shoulders with those financial groups.

Through this, she could project a positive image to the public.

The only thing she lacked now was a man worthy of her.

Cheng Wei had been pampered like a princess since her childhood. It made her arrogant, and she looked down on the more “ordinary” wealthy kids.

If she wanted to marry, she would have to marry the best.

Thus, she set her sights on the richest man in H Nation — Qun Li.

“Not bad.” Kun Cheng was very satisfied with Wei Cheng’s way of doing things.

As a member of the parliament, Kun Cheng naturally wanted to climb onto the high branch of Qun Li.

Rumors were, however, that Qun Li disliked others buttering up to him.

If Wei Cheng could make a beauty trap Qun Li’s woman, wouldn’t Kun Cheng’s career be even brighter?

Xue Lin heard this and hesitated.

“Wei Wei, aren’t you dating Yi?”

Wei Cheng’s face was disdainful when she heard Xue Lin mention Yi Feng.

When she took out her phone and saw that she had received a message from Yi Feng, her expression became even more unsightly.

“Yi Feng is just the second young master of the Feng Financial Group. He has an outstanding elder brother. It’s not certain who will be the successor of the Feng family in the future.”

Cheng Wei replied to Feng Yi’s message perfunctorily while saying.

“I can’t hang myself on a tree, right? I don’t want to live a hard life in the future.”

Compared to the Li family, the Feng family was nothing.

When she was 18 years old, Cheng Wei fell in love with Feng Yi, her senior at that time. However, the person she fell in love with at that time was Cheng Xin.

Employing methods of all manner to seduce him, she finally got Yi Feng to agree to be with her.

However, after three years, she was already tired of it.

She even felt that it was because Yi Feng had fallen in love with Cheng Xin, that she had to snatch him away.

Seeing that Wei Cheng wanted to be with Qun Li, Xue Lin’s heart was full of worry.

Qun Li had a rather public reputation, where everyone knew that he was a cold-hearted man.

Even the president was wary of him, let alone a senator like Cheng Kun.
