C30 A Strange Atmosphere

When Cheng Bao'er returned home, she saw Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng all sitting in the living room. Even Cheng Husheng, who already moved out, returned home rarely.

"Did something happen?" Cheng Bao'er frowned slightly as she secretly guessed in her heart. However, she could not allow them to see her current miserable state.

Thinking of this, Cheng Bao'er quickly walked into the living room. She whispered a greeting to them and wanted to hurry upstairs.

However, when Mrs. Cheng saw that Cheng Bao'er had been keeping her head down, she suddenly said, "Bao'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Hearing Mrs. Cheng's voice, Cheng Bao'er stopped in her tracks and quickly thought of an excuse to lie to her. At that moment, Cheng Husheng looked at his sister and smiled, "Bao'er, I'm afraid you haven't seen me in a while and are still shy, am I?"

Hearing Cheng Husheng's words, Cheng Bao'er quickly climbed up the stairs, "Yeah, it's been a long time since I last saw brother. I want to go upstairs to change into a more beautiful outfit and come down, but mom has to expose my little thoughts. She's so shy."

"Haha." Hearing Cheng Bao'er's answer, everyone was amused. Mr. Cheng suddenly said, "Alright, hurry up and go up. We still have some things to discuss. You can come down when dinner time is over."

"Alright!" With Mr. Cheng's permission, Cheng Bao'er finally felt relieved and quickly agreed before she ran upstairs.

When Mrs. Cheng saw Cheng Bao'er's impetuous appearance, she was still worried downstairs and warned repeatedly, "Be careful."

"Got it." Cheng Bao'er answered as she ran.

When Cheng Bao'er had completely disappeared from the staircase, the smiles on everyone's faces gradually calmed down. Mr. Cheng couldn't help but sigh and the atmosphere in the living room became depressed.

Returning to her room, Cheng Bao'er quickly took a shower and changed her clothes. Looking at her swollen red lips in the mirror, she could not help but say hatefully, "Damn that bastard."

After applying ice for a long time, Cheng Bao'er finally felt better.

After she was done packing up, Cheng Bao'er suddenly remembered that when she entered the living room, there seemed to be an unusual atmosphere.

Furthermore, even Cheng Husheng's return made people suspicious. Did something really happen?

Thinking about this, Cheng Bao'er wanted to go downstairs and have a look, but just as she reached the corner of the stairs, she heard Mr. Cheng yell angrily, "I knew that the Yang family suddenly had bad intentions about annulling the marriage. Now that's good, they're actually waiting for us here."

"Keep your voice down, don't let Bao'er hear you." Mrs. Cheng quickly reminded him.

Mr. Cheng suddenly turned his head to look at upstairs. Cheng Bao'er quickly hid herself in a corner to hear what happened.

However, after waiting for a long time and not hearing anything about the Yang family, Cheng Bao'er had no choice but to quietly return to her room and think about how to figure out what exactly happened.

Cheng Bao'er waited until it was time for dinner before she went downstairs and saw that Cheng Husheng had already left.

"Mom, why did brother leave?" Cheng Bao'er asked casually.

Hearing Cheng Bao'er's question, Mrs. Cheng suddenly froze for a moment before she smiled and said, "Your brother has some matters to take care of at the company. Let's hurry up and eat."

"Oh." Cheng Bao'er nodded slightly and looked at Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng's faces. If she hadn't heard Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng's story from her own ears, Cheng Bao'er wouldn't have known that Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng's acting skills were this good.

The dinner seemed to be a heartwarming meal, but in reality, under the surface of this tranquil atmosphere, it was already a surging tide.
