Chapter 126 Anger attacks the heart
Wang Qingqing knew that her plan had failed, and the people she had found were sent to the police station by Ouyang Mo. She became anxious like a headless fly, fearing that she would be betrayed by the kidnappers.
Cheng Lang carefully helped Du Mingyue back home. Wang Qingqing wanted to come over to see Du Mingyue and ask how the kidnapping incident was handled.
Cheng Lang sent Du Mingyue back to the bedroom to rest. Cheng's parents also returned from the company. Seeing Du Mingyue resting so early in the daytime, Cheng's mother asked, "Hey! Son, why did Xiaoyue rest so early today? Is there something wrong?"
"Well, it's a little bit. I was frightened. I'll be fine after a few days of rest!" Cheng Lang said
"Frightened? Why?" Cheng's father also asked
Cheng Lang told his parents what happened today. Mother Cheng was shocked and asked, "Who is so bold as to kidnap our Cheng family's daughter-in-law and also kidnap the Ou family's daughter-in-law at the same time?"
"We don't know yet. The police are still investigating, and the Ou family is also investigating. I believe there will be results soon!" Cheng Lang said in confusion.
Wang Qingqing, who had just entered the room, heard the conversation between Cheng Lang and Cheng's parents and learned that those people had not yet revealed the mastermind behind the scenes. She still had to come and care about Du Mingyue, but she couldn't be too obvious otherwise she would be exposed soon!
Cheng Lang glanced and saw Wang Qingqing. "Qingqing, why are you here?"
"Oh, I saw you didn't go to the company today, so I came to see what you were doing." Wang Qingqing said with pretended concern.
Cheng Lang was about to say something when he remembered Lian Xiaoya's instructions to him not to say anything when he got home! He had just told his parents the truth because they were the elders, but other people, including Wang Qingqing, shouldn't know about this yet. He would tell her after he caught the person behind this!
"Oh! Nothing! Xiaoyue felt a little unwell today and her parents went to the company again, so I came to see her!" Cheng Lang simply explained the situation!
Wang Qingqing's heart sank when she heard him say this. As she had expected, he had no intention of telling her what had happened today. Her eyes dimmed, and a sense of loss and helplessness welled up in her. His hesitant, secretive demeanor suggested he still harbored doubts about her and couldn't fully trust her. Perhaps it was some previous misunderstanding or experience that he still couldn't let go of. Thinking of this, Wang Qingqing's heart grew heavy, and she couldn't help but lapse into deep thought...
"Is Sister Du okay?" Wang Qingqing asked without rushing to expose him.
Cheng's parents also saw that Cheng Lang didn't want to tell Wang Qingqing what had happened. That was fine! Wang Qingqing hadn't become a member of their family yet. Telling her might cause some trouble!
"Xiaoyue is fine. I have asked the family doctor to come and take care of her. If you have nothing to do, stay and have dinner!" said Cheng's mother. It was not that Cheng's mother wanted to keep Wang Qingqing out of sudden kindness, but she had her grandson in her belly and she couldn't let him starve!
When Wang Qingqing heard that Cheng's mother had even arranged for a family doctor to take care of Du Mingyue, she immediately felt a surge of inexplicable anger in her heart. Why?! They were both pregnant with the Cheng family's grandson, so just because she wasn't married into the family by Cheng Lang, should she be looked down upon like this? This was too unfair! She secretly swore in her heart that she must let those two old guys know that she was definitely not someone to be bullied. After she gave birth to the Cheng family's grandson, she would see if they dared to treat her like this! When that time came, she would make them regret it and let them vent their anger.
"Okay! Aunt, I haven't come here for dinner for a long time!" Wang Qingqing agreed immediately. This was a good opportunity for her to get some information and build a good relationship with the two elders of the Cheng family.
After they finished cleaning up, they sat down at the dining table. The servants brought the prepared food to the table. The atmosphere at the table was very strange. No one spoke, just lowered their heads to eat. Wang Qingqing looked at everyone and said, "Alang, why is Sister Du suddenly unwell today? What's wrong with her?"
When Cheng Lang heard her ask this, something flashed through his mind, but he couldn't grasp it. He shook his head and said, "It's nothing! I just don't have an appetite. I asked the servants to cook some porridge and send it up!"
"So that's how it is! I thought there was something wrong with the baby in Sister Du's belly!" Wang Qingqing said without thinking. When Cheng's mother heard her say that, she threw down her chopsticks and said angrily
"What are you talking about? Are you cursing our Cheng family's grandson? You're going to be a mother soon, so you need to think carefully about what to say and what not to say!"
"Aunt, don't be angry, I didn't mean that. It's precisely because Sister Du is pregnant with the blood of the Cheng family that she should take better care of herself!" Wang Qingqing said calmly.
"Hmph... you'd better take care of yourself first!" Mother Cheng sneered, with a hint of disdain and contempt in her tone: "Maybe by then, it may not be certain who will give birth to the child first!" There was a provocative glint in her eyes, as if implying that this contest has just begun.
Cheng's mother's words were like a sharp sword, piercing the man's heart. She knew that these words would make him feel uneasy and anxious, which was exactly what she wanted to see. She looked at the surprise and confusion on his face with pride, secretly pleased with herself.
However, Wang Qingqing was undeterred by Mother Cheng's words. Instead, she puffed out her chest and responded fearlessly, "So what? No matter which one is born first, I will do my best to take good care of my child. And no matter whose child it is, it's still your Cheng family's child, isn't it?" Her voice was firm and powerful, revealing an unyielding determination.
Upon hearing this, Mother Cheng couldn't help but frown. She had thought she could easily defeat the other party, but she hadn't expected him to be so stubborn. She gritted her teeth, decided not to continue the fight, and turned away. But she knew in her heart that this fight was far from over, and there were more challenges waiting for them in the future.
Cheng Lang felt a little annoyed when he heard Wang Qingqing say this. He left without finishing his meal, and Wang Qingqing ate on her own. Her primary goal now was to take good care of the baby in her belly and prevent him from getting into trouble! The servants of the Cheng family looked down on Wang Qingqing from the bottom of their hearts when they saw her eating alone so shamelessly!
Wang Qingqing knew that even the servants looked down on her, but it didn't matter. She didn't need anyone to look down on her. Once she became the mistress of the Cheng family, everyone would need to respect her.
After dinner, Wang Qingqing returned to the cabin alone. Cheng Lang said he wanted to stay and take care of Du Mingyue, so he didn't come back with her. This Du Mingyue was really clever! A mere kidnapping, without any injuries, had the entire Cheng family surrounding her. It seemed that Du Mingyue couldn't be kept here any longer! However, those idiots were now arrested, and she couldn't find anyone more suitable to complete this task for her. She needed to think things over!
