Without a doubt, this Ouyang Liang was a Stage Six Inner Strength warrior. To a normal family's disciple, he was a powerful existence. With a wave of his hand, Zhu Yingxiong was severely injured.
However, the Yue Clan did not dare to force him to stay. After all, he was a member of the Real Martial Arts Clan. Although he was a branch family, he was still stronger than the Yue Clan, who had broken away from the main family!
Moreover, the one who was injured was Zhu Yingxiong, not a member of the Yue Clan. In essence, Yue Shanshan and Zhu Yingxiong were not engaged yet, so the Yue Clan had no reason to stand up for them.
Ouyang Liang seemed to have guessed that this would happen. He laughed coldly and said, "Yue Clan, I hope that you will put yourself in the right position. It is Yue Shanshan's fortune that my brother has taken a liking to her! Don't miss the chance to marry into the Ouyang Real Martial Arts Clan just because you want to marry into the Zhu family! This time, it is just a warning. Next time, it will not be so easy. I will give you one night to think about it. I will come again tomorrow morning! "
After saying that, Ouyang Liang turned around and left, leaving behind the shocked Yue Clan! Although the Yue Clan had people who could force Ouyang Liang to stay, they did not dare to do so. Wouldn't it be a declaration of war between the Yue Clan and the Ouyang Clan?
How could the Yue Clan be a match for them? No matter how one looked at it, the Yue Clan would not do such a stupid thing!
After listening to what had happened, Xiao Chen did not blame the Yue Clan. There was nothing much to say about this. Every clan's elders would consider the clan's benefits, and not their personal gains and losses. Only when a clan was prosperous and undeclining, would everyone in the clan be able to obtain corresponding benefits.
Just like when Xiao Chen was chased out of the Xiao Family, he had no other choice. There was no other way. He had to sacrifice himself for the greater good. Therefore, although the Yue Clan's actions were ruthless, it was understandable.
"I will wait for him to come tomorrow." Xiao Chen said directly.
"That's great!" Yue Shaoqun nodded. "With Hero White Fox's help, there will be no problem with Shanshan and Hero."
However, Xiao Chen couldn't go to the Cheng family anymore, but it was also good that he didn't go. After he went there, if Cheng Mengqiang and Cao Yuliang were on guard in front of him, it would not be easy to expose himself.
At the thought of this, Xiao Chen called Jin Beibei and did not hide it from the people present.
"Cousin-in-law!" Jin Beibei ran to the side and picked up the phone secretly.
"Bei Bei, I have something to do here. Zhu Yingxiong has been injured by someone. I can't leave," Xiao Chen said.
"Ah? Oh, okay. I'll talk to Cousin Mengying. "Jin Beibei nodded.
"You can stay there tonight. Since tomorrow is the weekend, I will pick you up during the day," Xiao Chen said.
"Okay, got it," Jin Beibei answered and secretly went to tell Cheng Mengying.
When Cheng Mengying heard that Xiao Chen left because Zhu Yingxiong was injured, she was not angry. She just snorted and muttered, "This guy. He crushed someone's car, and I have to clean it for him every time … Otherwise, how could Qiao Enze let him go so easily?"
"Clean his butt?" Jin Beibei asked.
"Why are you asking when you already know?!" Cheng Mengying kicked Jin Beibei.
As they were talking, Qiao Enze went to visit the elders of the Cheng family. At this time, Cao Yuliang happened to come in. He saw Cheng Mengying and Jin Beibei in the banquet hall, so he quickly ran over.
"Mengying, Beibei, you are here!" Cao Yuliang greeted them warmly.
"Isn't what you're saying nonsense? This is Cousin Mengying's home. If we are not here, are you? "Jin Beibei squinted at Cao Yuliang.
"Cao Yuliang, I don't need you here. You can go ahead with your business. I have something private to talk to Jin Beibei about." Cheng Mengying wanted to send Cao Yuliang away and see what he was going to do next. Otherwise, she could not tell whether he was up to something bad if he kept pestering her.
"Ah … I see. Alright then!" Since Cheng Mengying had said so, Cao Yuliang did not say anything else. After all, the two girls were talking about something private, and it was not appropriate for him to stay here. Therefore, he nodded and said, "Okay. I'll visit Grandpa Cheng and Uncle Cheng first!"
"Okay," Cheng Mengying replied.
After Cao Yuliang left, Jin Beibei looked at Cheng Mengying in confusion and asked, "Cousin Mengying, what do you want to talk to me about? Or do you want to send Xiao Liangzi away? "
"Both." Cheng Mengying said, "You want to be Detective Bei 007, don't you?"
"Huh?" Jin Beibei was dazed. "Why?"
"You help me follow Cao Yuliang and see who he is in contact with and what he does and says. But don't let him find out. Can you accomplish the task?" Cheng Mengying said.
"Yes, it's too easy. Watch me!" Jin Beibei immediately patted her chest and said eagerly. Her chest was shivering, which made Cheng Mengying a little envious.
"Go ahead." After saying that, Cheng Mengying turned around and pretended to be tired. She went to a corner of the dining room and sat down to take a rest.
Cao Yuliang left the dining room calmly. He turned around and looked around. After making sure that nobody was around, he took out his phone and dialed a number, saying, "Young Master Cheng, it's me. I'm in the Cheng family's mansion now. I have nothing to do now. Can I go and find you? … Okay, got it! "
Jin Beibei was hiding behind a dustbin at the moment. She heard Cao Yuliang's words clearly. Young Master Cheng? Is it Cheng Mengqiang? Why is Cao Yuliang going to find Cheng Mengqiang?
Cao Yuliang did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood where he was and played with his phone, which made Jin Beibei a little confused. Did his "Okay, got it" mean that he was going or not?
However, after a while, Cao Yuliang strode towards an independent villa in the Cheng family's mansion.
Cheng Mengqiang received a call from Cao Yuliang. In fact, he was with Xiao Xiao at the moment. Although he trusted Xiao Xiao very much now, Xiao Xiao had not become his woman yet, which made Cheng Mengqiang somewhat defensive. He could not tell her everything, especially when it was related to Xiao Chen.
At least, although Xiao Xiao seemed to like him now, she should be very sensitive when it came to the survival of the Xiao family. Therefore, Cheng Mengqiang asked Xiao Xiao to go upstairs to watch a movie while he waited for Cao Yuliang in the living room downstairs.
Very soon, Cao Yuliang came to the door of Cheng Mengqiang's villa. However, he did not ring the doorbell. Instead, he directly opened the door and walked in. Obviously, Cheng Mengqiang had left the door open for him.
Jin Beibei watched Cao Yuliang enter the single-family villa. She had no choice. She definitely could not follow him in. If she did, she would definitely be discovered. Therefore, she immediately called Cheng Mengying.
"Beibei, how is it going?" Although Cheng Mengying seemed to be resting, she had been thinking about this matter. Jin Beibei should not be in danger. This was the mansion of the Cheng family. Even if Cao Yuliang discovered that he was being followed, he could not do anything to Jin Beibei.
However, the main problem was that once Jin Beibei was discovered by Cao Yuliang, he would definitely be alarmed. It would be difficult for Cao Yuliang to catch Jin Beibei after he alerted the enemy. In that case, Xiao Chen's plan would be ruined.
"Cousin Mengying, I saw that Cao Yuliang called a man named Young Master Cheng very respectfully. After that, he went to Cheng Mengqiang's villa!" Jin Beibei reported truthfully. This was Cheng Mengqiang's villa. She also knew that she and Cheng Mengying had been close since they were kids. She was as familiar with the Cheng family as she was with her own home.
"Oh? He went there? "Cheng Mengying's heart suddenly tightened. As she expected, something was wrong! It seemed that Xiao Chen's speculation was correct. Cheng Mengqiang and Cao Yuliang were in different age groups. It was impossible for them to be so close.
Also, it was even more impossible for Cao Yuliang to be Cheng Mengqiang's lackey. After all, he was older than Cheng Mengqiang! Unless, there was some unknown reason that caused it to become like this.
Cao Yuliang was very respectful to Cheng Mengqiang. What did it mean? Why did Cao Yuliang do that? However, it was not important anymore. What mattered was that Cheng Mengqiang was probably the person who dealt with Xiao Chen behind the scenes!
Thinking of that, Cheng Mengying immediately felt that her back was soaked in cold sweat. Was he … targeting the Xiao family? But how was that possible? Was Uncle Xiao's disappearance related to him, too?
Then … was the disappearance of her youngest uncle Cheng Zhongqian related to Cheng Mengqiang, too?
Cheng Mengying was not stupid. As for Cheng Mengqiang's motive, she quickly guessed it. Cheng Zhongqian was the future heir of the Cheng family. However, Cheng Zhongqian was only about ten years older than Cheng Mengqiang.
In this way, if Cheng Zhongqian were to ascend to the position of Young Master of the Cheng Clan, Cheng Mengqiang would have no chance at all. He would lose the position of Young Master, because the day Cheng Zhongqian grew old, he would also grow old. With a gap of ten years, it was impossible for him to be entrusted with such a heavy responsibility.
As for why he didn't deal with her father, the current Young Patriarch, the reason wasn't hard to understand. She was a woman and would eventually marry, so it was impossible for her father to pass down the position of Patriarch. Furthermore, her father's aptitude was mediocre, and this was publicly acknowledged by the family. In fact, everyone understood that Cheng Zhongming's position as Young Patriarch was merely a passing phase. Once Cheng Zhongqian grew up, the position would be handed over.
If her guess was right, then Cheng Mengqiang was a terrifying person. He had such a good plan!
But why did he make Uncle Xiao disappear? And why did he target Xiao Chen? Why was that? Was it really because he wanted to take over the Xiao family? If he married Xiao Xiao and killed Xiao Chen, then the Xiao family would definitely be in his pocket!
But what did he want the Xiao family to do? Although he could gain some benefits by doing so, it would not be much! This was because the Xiao Family did not have much financial resources. Even if they managed to obtain it, they would at most gain the title of an aristocratic family. At most, the Cheng Family would promote a trusted family member to take over the position of the Xiao Family.
