Yang Cheng took the plane prepared by the Rothschild family. It didn't take him many hours to get back to Zhonghai.
He thought that he would be able to have breakfast when he got home, but he didn't expect to see two people at home.
"Why are you guys here?" Yang Cheng asked in confusion.
Guo Xuehua frowned and scolded him with a smile, "Why are you calling me Uncle and Auntie?"
Yang Cheng curled his lips. "I'm not used to it."
Guo Xuehua wanted to pull his ears, but when she thought about how Yang Chen hadn't had any relatives by his side for the past twenty years, she felt sad and let it go.
Yuan Hewei and his wife didn't mind at all. In fact, if they weren't related, Yuan Hewei and his wife wouldn't have dared to face Yang Cheng like Fang Zhongping.
They had received news from the Yang Family that in less than half a day, Yang Cheng had slaughtered hundreds of people in the Klyuchevsky family! Men, women, young and old!
The couple felt a chill down their spines when they saw how relaxed Yang Cheng was.
Luckily, this young man was one of them. Otherwise, they might have nightmares at night.
Yang Chen noticed that Lin Ruoxi was sitting there without saying a word. She was staring at him with a weird gaze. He couldn't help but feel confused. He walked to Lin Ruoxi and asked carefully, "Dear, what's wrong? Why are you staring at me in a daze? Hehe, are you too happy to see me back? "
Lin Ruoxi couldn't see any blame in the man's eyes. It was as if she wasn't unhappy with what he and Jane had said and done.
Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but hate her previous choice. She lowered her head and said, "It's nothing. I just didn't sleep well."
Although Yang Cheng felt that there must be another reason, he didn't ask further. Instead, he said to Yang Jieyu and his wife, "You haven't said anything yet. Why are you here so early?"
Yang Jieyu smiled and said, "Grandpa asked us to come over. He wants to talk to you. Of course, the first thing is to praise you. You handled it well this time. Also, about Miss Yiling …"
Then, Yang Jieyu briefly explained her future goals and looked at Yang Cheng with anticipation.
Yang Cheng sat down and peeled a rice dumpling. As he bit into it, he said, "That's a good idea. After losing that science geek, Yan Buwen, they want Jane to help them. Even the British MI5 couldn't get Jane to develop weapons for them. Does Hua Xia have any magic? I think you want to use my relationship to tie Jane to Hua Xia, right? "
"We're just passing on the message, so it's not our place to comment. "But no country's government will give up the chance to get Jane," Yang Jieyu said.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "Go and tell the old man and all those who want to get benefits from Jane. Jane will only stay in Zhonghai to do the research she likes and teach the subjects she likes. She will not go to Beijing, nor will she contribute to the military."
Yang Jieyu smiled bitterly, "Not at all? So determined? "
"Don't make me repeat myself," Yang Cheng said.
Yuan Hewei stopped his wife who wanted to say something and smiled, "That's enough. We're not here to persuade them. It's fine as long as the message is passed."
Yang Jieyu sighed and smiled, "Okay, I'll pass on the message to Beijing. But, Yang Cheng, didn't you say you wanted to go back to Beijing last time? Why haven't you gone back yet? "
Hearing this question, Lin Ruoxi also looked at Yang Cheng curiously.
Yang Cheng chewed the sticky rice and swallowed it, "I'm used to getting things done one step at a time. I'll go back when I'm ready."
Yang Jieyu and her husband couldn't say anything else. They knew that Yang Cheng might seem easy to get along with, but there were a lot of things that no one could control.
Finally, Yang Jieyu sent out an invitation, "Yang Cheng, Yuan Ye is holding a small celebration party for Tangtang's admission to Zhonghai University. Your family should come too. I remember there's a girl called Zhenxiu, right? She took the exam with Tangtang, which university did she get into? "
When everyone heard this, Guo Xuehua asked in surprise, "The college entrance examination results are out?"
Yuan Hewei said, "It's already July, of course they've finished marking the exam papers. Don't you guys know that you can check by phone now? "
Guo Xuehua was a little embarrassed. She might be a mother of two, but her son had never participated in the exam. Thus, she had no idea about it.
Lin Ruoxi was also looking forward to it. "Let's check it when Zhenxiu comes back."
As everyone chatted, Yang Jieyu did not forget to remind Yang Cheng to bring his family to the Yuan Family's private banquet on time. She even insisted that everyone must be present.
Since Yang Cheng couldn't resist their enthusiasm, he could only agree to it.
After Yuan Hewei and his wife left, Lin Ruoxi helped Mother Wang clean up the dishes and went to work.
Yang Cheng immediately chased after her and grabbed Lin Ruoxi's hand. "Ruoxi, what's wrong with you? Did I do something to make you unhappy? Why haven't you looked at me since I came home? "
Lin Ruoxi bit her lips and turned around. She said gloomily, "No, you're great. It's my own problem."
"What's your problem?"
Yang Cheng was even more confused. He thought about it and said unhappily, "Did someone bully you? Damn it, I've only been away for less than a day. Who's so tired of living? I'll go kill him! "
Lin Ruoxi raised her head and looked at Yang Chen who seemed to be taking things for granted. "You always talk about killing people. Is it really that interesting?"
Yang Cheng's face turned bitter. He smiled awkwardly. "I … I was just making an example. An example …"
"An example?" Lin Ruoxi looked at the man with mixed feelings, "Do you think I can't tell? Just now, Aunt and the others looked at you with fear in their eyes … Even they, as family, are afraid of you. You went abroad this time and killed a lot of people, right?"
Yang Cheng was startled. He didn't expect Lin Ruoxi to be able to see through this. In fact, he had overlooked one thing. Lin Ruoxi was an expert in the business world for many years. Although she didn't talk often, her ability to read people's expressions was definitely far superior to ordinary people.
"I'm sorry …" Yang Cheng sighed, "I didn't expect this to make you unhappy."
"You're saying sorry again." Lin Ruoxi smiled miserably, "What do you have to say 'sorry' for? You don't have any 'sorry' to me at all! "
Looking at the woman's sudden agitation, Yang Cheng was a little sluggish.
Lin Ruoxi suddenly covered her face helplessly with her hands, softly squatting down and sobbing.
Yang Cheng was at a loss for what to do. He quickly squatted down and wanted to reach out to caress the woman's sobbing shoulders, but he was afraid that it would cause even more emotional fluctuations.
"Wife …"
"Don't call me!" Lin Ruoxi's eyes were red and filled with tears, "I'm not worthy of being your wife at all … You're not someone from my world, I'm not worthy of you at all …"
Yang Cheng's mind went blank, as if lightning had struck his forehead, causing him to lose the ability to think!
"To you, killing is as casual as breathing. To you, money and power are all things that are easily obtainable. Even if you kill hundreds or thousands of people a day, perhaps you won't find it too hard to accept … But to me, the death of a person in front of me is something that will give me nightmares at night …
The enemies you have to face, they aren't even human. In their eyes, I'm not your wife, I'm just a burden by your side, a hostage that can be used to force you to submit!
I can't help you with anything, I don't understand anything. Other than arguing with you all day because of other women's matters, I can't do anything for you …
Don't you think I'm very sad, very ridiculous? My dignity, my pride, my beliefs are just a fragile piece of paper, in front of you, it's useless … But I see myself as so important, am I an extremely stupid woman? Tell me! Isn't that right!? "
Yang Cheng looked at the woman who had lost control of her emotions. This wasn't the first time he saw Lin Ruoxi cry so painfully, but this was the first time that Lin Ruoxi actually appeared to feel inferior in front of him.
Lin Ruoxi's tears dripped onto the ground, like dyed flowers blooming.
"Do you know, sometimes I even think that if they were your lovers, wouldn't they be much happier than if I were your wife? They don't need to feel that they're not worthy of you, they don't need to worry about other women competing for their positions, they don't need to worry about not returning home at night … If they were lovers, even if they couldn't help you, they wouldn't be in so much pain.
"Ruoxi, don't be like this …" Yang Cheng said with difficulty.
Lin Ruoxi shook her head and said sadly, "Yang Cheng, you did the right thing. Jane is the woman who should stay by your side. Only her wisdom can bring you help. She is the woman who is worthy of you. She's so beautiful and comes from a noble background. Unlike me, I'm a woman who doesn't even want my own father …
She's also so intelligent, always able to provide you with so much help, the whole world needs her … She loves you so much, even though she knows that the other party is that kind of person, she's willing to sacrifice herself and marry to Russia for you. She won't have nightmares about you killing people, nor will she feel a sense of crisis because you have a lover, because no one can compare to her … "
"Lin Ruoxi!" Yang Cheng glared at her angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!?"
