Chapter 111: Complain to Young Uncle

Cheng Xingyang’s face darkened. He lowered his head and looked at the bracelet on Xing Linlin’s wrist. Xing Linlin put her hand behind back uncomfortably, wanting to cover it up. Xing Shu was not done—since Cheng Xingyang was the one who started it, then he should not blame her for the slap in the face. “Also, don’t forget the villa that Xing Linlin is living in now is Young Uncle’s gift to me. Previously, I told her to move out within three days, but she didn’t. What you said just now reminded me of that. I’m going to sell the house tonight. Please transfer the property deed to my name quickly. Otherwise, I’ll have to complain to Young Uncle.”
Hot under the collar, Cheng Xingyang’s anger got the better of him and that was why he tried to find fault with her with the previous jibe. He did not expect Xing Shu to have so much ammunition lined up for him. He was speechless for a moment. Even Xing Linlin—who was beside him—felt awkward. What Xing
Linlin did not expect was that the villa was actually given to Xing Shu by Cheng Lang. When Xing Shu asked her to move out, she only felt that it was ridiculous. After all, Cheng Xingyang had bought it for her. What right did Xing Shu have to chase her away?
Xing Linlin’s face turned pale. She could not help but wonder why Cheng Lang would give Xing Shu such a lavish gift. That villa was worth more than 20 million yuan—an astronomical figure that ordinary people could not earn in their entire lives. She turned to look at Cheng Xingyang. Seeing that Cheng Xingyang did not refute Xing Shu’s words, it proved that Xing Shu’s words were true. Hatred flashed across her eyes. Why was there still someone helping that b*tch, Xlng Shu? Didn’t the news ofher promiscuity spread like wildfire in the
Beijing upper-class circle?
Xing Linlin’s lips trembled twice, and she did not dare to look into Feng
Daxiang’s eyes. Feng Daxiang stopped opening the gifts and looked at Cheng Xingyang angrily. “Your words just now were too hurtful. As long as Xing Shu visits me, I’m already very happy. Moreover, the welfare home has been receiving donations from an anonymous donor all these years, and the money’s not that tight. The children are well-fed and clothed. Furthermore, it is a fact that it was only because of Xing Shu that Xing Linlin was able to leave the welfare home back then. Now that Xing Linlin is doing well, she should be grateful. As Xing Linlin’s boyfriend, how can you say such things?”
Cheng Xingyang was seething with anger. Xing Shu continued, “Cheng
Xingyang, if you find it troublesome to transfer the property deed, then
contact tne real estate agent yoursell. 1 want to receive tne runas ror tne property sale within a week.” She looked at Feng Daxiang with a sincere expression. “Director, do you still remember the land dispute of the welfare home back then? There are still two years left in the agreement. I’m worried that someone will be up to no good in the meantime. It would be prudent for us to save some money and find a new location in advance.”
Of course, Feng Daxiang remembered the agreement. If not for Xing Shu, they would have been kicked out long ago. That incident had also made Xing Shu give up a lot of things. This had always been a pain point for him. As the director of the welfare home, the weight of ensuring the children’s future should have fallen on his shoulders. However, this responsibility had unknowingly shifted to Xing Shu. Only Xing Shu was willing to use more than 20 million yuan to find a new place for the welfare home. Feng Daxiang did not know what to do. Should he reject her? However, ifhe rejected her—when the deadline of the agreement was up—where would these children go? He did not have much material needs himself and could find a simple place to live.
However, the children were still growing; they could not sleep rough with him. He knew that Xing Shu was a very loyal and appreciative person. Back then, he had sold his house in order to save her life. As a result, his wife left him. Xing Shu would remember this debt of kindness for the rest of her life and be beholden to him.
Feng Daxiang patted Xing Shu’s shoulder and his eyes turned red. “These children owe you a great debt. They can’t repay you enough.” Compared to the 20 million yuan, what was the few thousand yuan worth of gifts Xing Linlin had bought? She was wearing a bracelet that cost more than a million yuan. She expected to win people’s hearts with such a small favor?
Xing Linlin’s face darkened. Of course, it was not because of Feng Daxiang and Xing Shu’s words. She was still conflicted about the villa. Now that the sale proceeds for the villa were going to be used to find a new location for the welfare home, how could she dare to say that she would not move out? Back then, Xing Shu had told her to move out within three days, but she paid no heed to it. Now that Xing Shu was using Cheng Lang’s name to make her move out, she and Cheng Xingyang did not dare to refute. For every ounce of Xing
Linlin’s arrogance previously, it was replaced by humiliation in turn now. Even Cheng Xingyang did not dare to say anything.
Xing Shu did not have the time to care about Xing Linlin and Cheng Xingyang. Instead, she turned around and continued to help Feng Daxiang unwrap the gifts. Xing Linlin and Cheng Xingyang did not want to stay and embarrass themselves any further, so they found an excuse to leave. Despite his words earlier, Feng Daxiang was not angry with them and even saw them off..
