After registering for marriage, Shi Qingyang saw Wang Qing, dressed as Cheng Xuze, sitting in the copilot seat across the car window. No one could have guessed that the person in front of him would be Wang Qing.
“Everything go well? Let’s head to the hotel.” Seeing Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran come out, Wang Qing smiled and said. The sound of his voice and appearance were no different from Cheng Xuze.
Although he didn’t normally laugh or talk, after all, he had been with Cheng Xuze for a long time, and it was not difficult to copy Cheng Xuze’s demeanor and actions. As for the voice, he now has a voice changer in his mouth. It made him uncomfortable, but it could undoubtedly change his voice.
In order not to make Li Rong suspicious, they specially arranged the trip for today. After registering, they would head to the hotel for a meal. In the afternoon, they also prepared something to let Shi Qingyang and the group barbecue at home.
For Wang Qing, the most important thing was to show up at the hotel, and when the barbecue party happened at the gate of the villa, he had to come out and sit.
Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran quickly boarded the car. By this time, many people had gathered. If they stayed, then it was likely that more and more people would come crowd around.
Although these people were just onlookers, Shi Qingyang didn’t like being surrounded at all.
Cheng Ran sat in the car and kept looking at his contact terminal. After the two got married, a lot of their information in the contact terminal would change, and some of their information would even be shared. For example, the bank account under his name would be shown, and the location of his spouse could be found out through the location query.
Of course, these could also be shielded. Many people who were just marrying each other for convenience would choose to do so.
Shi Qingyang didn’t mind showing these things to Cheng Ran at all. He even raised his contact terminal to look at Cheng Ran’s information with great interest. When he saw the dots representing himself and Cheng Ran together in the position locator, he became even happier.
“Qingyang, you have a lot of money.” Cheng Ran also flipped through and was surprised when he saw Shi Qingyang’s account.
“This is the payment Zheng Gaoyuan’s grandparents gave me,” Shi Qingyang smiled and said. If it weren’t for Cheng Xuze sending his money to the anonymous account under ‘I don’t want to starve’, meaning Cheng Ran couldn’t see it, he would have been even more shocked.
“Should we treat him better?” Cheng Ran asked, Zheng Gaoyuan was really sad these days.
“No, his grandparents gave me so much because I was strict with him,” Shi Qingyang said. In fact, the Zheng family may have wanted to discipline Zheng Gaoyuan well for a long time, but even though they knew that some of his behaviors were wrong, they wouldn’t do anything about it…
Moreover, Zheng Gaoyuan really hadn’t done anything bad. He was already a little stupid, so how could his grandparents refuse to give him something to eat?
“Then be more strict.” Cheng Ran smiled, and then went to look up Qingyang’s family data: “Qingyang, your parents were born in Anhang City?”
“Yes, my family was all from Anhang City, but my grandparents are gone. My grandparents divorced when my mother was very young. They didn’t even know my mother married my father and never contacted me. Don’t worry,” Shi Qingyang said. His parents had a hard time in Anhang City, so they chose to settle in Spark City. Who would have thought that they would die unexpectedly in the end?
As for his parents’ relatives, he had never contacted them in his last life, and this time, of course, it was the same.
“I shouldn’t have asked…” Cheng Ran apologized.
“It’s nothing.” Shi Qingyang smiled and opened Cheng Ran’s information, only to find that Cheng Ran’s parents were clearly written ‘Cheng Hong’ and ‘Qin Liu’.
It was clear that Cheng Ran was not Qin Liu’s child. Who knew how it ended up being listed this way… This information would have been recorded when the child was born, and Qin Liu… Cheng Xuze found someone to follow Qin Liu, but he found nothing suspicious. This undoubtedly disappointed Shi Qingyang.
When they arrived at the hotel, they were almost finished being excited. Wang Qing got off the car first. They quickly followed Wang Qing and walked to the hotel. In the car behind them, Zheng Gaoyuan, Gu Changjin, and the several bodyguards belonging to Cheng Xuze came down.
Cheng Xuze had booked the top floor room of this five-story hotel a day in advance. The room here was far more expensive than the Star Hotel’s, and the price was certainly higher. However, with Cheng Xuze, the manager of the hotel insisted on a discount, so they didn’t pay much in the end.
“Whether it’s on discount or not, the most important thing is just to place an order. Please serve all the delicious signature dishes here!” Zheng Gaoyuan often visited such places. When he spoke, he was very aggressive. At the same time, he started staring at the menu in front of him with a vicious expression.
When Shi Qingyang came out for dinner this time, they couldn’t leave Zheng Gaoyuan behind, so he had to take him along. Now Zheng Gaoyuan was definitely the most excited one.
“There’s no need to serve all of them. Just serve dishes according to this banquet.” As the groom, Shi Qingyang had the right to order. He flipped through the menu in his hand and finally pointed to a well-assorted banquet table.
“Just a moment, please. The food will be served right away.” The waiter respectfully withdrew. Now, as long as you clicked the menu, you could order dishes, and you could see how your dishes were lined up and when they would be served. However, in a room like this, manual service was still provided. Not only that, but also people would be specially assigned to cook the dishes.
Almost a moment later, dishes were brought up and the whole table was filled. Zheng Gaoyuan’s eyes were green with envy when he saw them. If he hadn’t seen Cheng Xuze move, he would have rushed at the food in front of him.
“Eat quickly,” Wang Qing smiled and offered.
Zheng Gaoyuan’s chopsticks pointed at the sweet and sour meat balls in front of him, but he didn’t expect to be stopped halfway.
“Shi Qingyang… Boss Shi?” Zheng Gaoyuan carefully looked at Shi Qingyang.
“You eat this.” Shi Qingyang put a vegetable salad in front of him: “You haven’t eaten meat for a long time. If you suddenly eat a lot of fish and meat, your stomach won’t be able to bear it, and you’ll have diarrhea.”
“I don’t mind having diarrhea, really! And if I have diarrhea, can’t I still lose weight?” Zheng Gaoyuan said eagerly.
“But if you have diarrhea, you won’t be able to participate in exercising tomorrow,” Shi Qingyang smiled and said. He wanted to make Zheng Gaoyuan exercise, but he didn’t intend to damage Zheng Gaoyuan’s body.
“You’re only letting me eat just this? How could you only let me eat this…” Zheng Gaoyuan looked at the vegetable salad in sorrow and fury.
“This really isn’t good…” Shi Qingyang smiled and picked out all the potatoes in the vegetable salad with his chopsticks. “The potatoes have too many calories.”
Zheng Gaoyuan dared not speak again.
Like every day before, except for Zheng Gaoyuan, everyone ate happily. After eating, Shi Qingyang opened his contact terminal and browsed the news.
Although it hadn’t been long, his marriage with Cheng Ran today had become one of the hottest pieces of news.
The people in the topics had several speculations as to why he and Cheng Ran had gotten married so early. Of course, although there were guesses, many people also expressed their blessings.
“How does it feel to see those speculations on the Internet?” Seeing Shi Qingyang’s actions, Wang Qing smiled. Although there were no outsiders here, he still faithfully played Cheng Xuze.
“Very good.” Shi Qingyang smiled. As things stood now, if Cheng Ran weren’t a man, everyone would have thought that they had gotten married because they were expecting a child… “By the way, Grandpa, Uncle Cheng…”
Shi Qingyang saw someone in the comments wondering about what Cheng Hong thought about this, and suddenly felt a bit ignorant.
“I already notified him yesterday, and he said didn’t care,” Wang Qing said. Cheng Xuze thought of this matter yesterday and specially informed Cheng Hong. In the end, Cheng Hong said he didn’t care…
Hearing this, Shi Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief, but he was obviously happy too early, as when they went downstairs to leave, they saw Cheng Hong walking in with a dark expression.
For over a month, Cheng Hong’s life had been very difficult. After Cheng Xuze stopped helping him or even giving him money, he immediately changed from being flattered to being avoided.
On the contrary, Shi Qingyang had many people who were eager to curry favor with him because of his good talent… What he hated most was that some people got everything just because of their good talent.
The world was so unfair. He and Cheng Hui were both the sons of Cheng Xuze. Cheng Hui was a natural radiation user. With his talent of Double A+, he was destined to be the favored child of heaven since he was young. Since his talent wasn’t good, he could never become better than his brother… Now, because some random child who’d from come who knows where had good talent, he’d become even more important than Cheng Hong in Cheng Xuze’s eyes!
Even Qin Liu thought he should have a good relationship with Shi Qingyang!
He always felt very angry about this, and did not want to listen to Qin Liu’s words to show weakness. Yesterday, Cheng Xuze contacted him and told him that Shi Qingyang was going to marry Cheng Ran. He only thought that was a joke.
Even if he hated Shi Qingyang, he didn’t think Shi Qingyang would marry Cheng Ran. After all, Cheng Ran was not only a man without rad-energy, but also a man.
Because of this, he waited for Cheng Xuze to take the initiative to show his kindness, but what he got instead was this kind of news. In the end, he had a big quarrel with Cheng Xuze, and also threw out some cruel words. Cheng Ran’s affairs had nothing to do with him, and he did not care.
Although he said so, he always thought that Cheng Ran would discuss with him even if he really wanted to get married. As a result, early this morning, he saw the news that Cheng Ran and Shi Qingyang were married.
When Cheng Hong saw them, he gave Shi Qingyang a cold look and turned to Cheng Ran: “Cheng Ran, do you still know I’m your father? You won’t even call me when you get married? You don’t take me seriously?”
“Cheng Hong! What are you doing? What, did you forget what you said last night?” Wang Qing said sternly.
“How would I know that my son was going to get married and not even say anything to me? Dad, do you still think of me as your son? Does Cheng Ran still think of me as his father?” No matter what happened from here, things couldn’t get worse. Cheng Hong now had the aggressive idea of breaking the jar and exploding things in the open.
“What are you doing here? If you want to say something, go back first to say it!” Wang Qing immediately said. When Cheng Xuze contacted Cheng Hong yesterday, Cheng Hong kept saying that he would not see him, so they didn’t think much about it. However, they didn’t expect Cheng Hong to come to the door and start begging for punishment.
“I’m asking to make things clear!” Cheng Hong refused to let go. Among the people in front of him, Gu Changjin betrayed him. Cheng Ran was the person he hated most. Shi Qingyang made him uncomfortable everywhere…
“You go back with me! Don’t make a fool of yourself here!” Wang Qing said again.
Cheng Hong still wanted to say something, but suddenly he looks at Wang Qing and frowns: “You… You…”
Wang Qing’s heart skipped a beat, and he said, “You go back!” It was impossible for Cheng Ran to put on makeup that made him look identical to Cheng Xuze. In fact, many people dared not stare at Cheng Xuze if they weren’t of high status, and there were bodyguards around, otherwise they wouldn’t dare carrying out such a plan.
However, Cheng Xuze’s bodyguards could stop others on the grounds that Cheng Ran got married today and Cheng Xuze didn’t want to see outsiders. They wouldn’t let others approach, but they couldn’t stop Cheng Hong.
Moreover, Cheng Hong was also Cheng Xuze’s son. After saying this, he stared at Cheng Xuze; how could he not see any flaws?
“Sir, let’s go back and discuss,” Gu Changjin also said.
Cheng Hongyi was shocked. Once his doubts began, he naturally spotted more doubts. At the same time, he clearly knew that the Cheng Xuze in front of him was false.
With the identity of Cheng Xuze, no one should dare to murder him. But in this case, how could anyone pretend to be him?
Cheng Hong knew that there was something wrong now, but he was furious when he thought that the fake Cheng Xuze dared to scold him.
However, before Cheng Hong said anything, Shi Qingyang suddenly held him back: “Dad, we didn’t inform you today. It’s our fault. When we go back, we will make amends for you. Don’t blame Grandpa.”
Cheng Hong wanted to question the fake Cheng Xuze in front of him, but he suddenly found that Shi Qingyang’s strength was so great that he couldn’t move. Not only that, his internal rad-energy became disordered.
Cheng Hong was shocked when he realized this. Even though he knew that he was unlikely to be in danger in the city, he was still extremely frightened. At this moment, Shi Qingyang had quickly packed him into the car.
Wang Qing also sat in the car, and the vehicle quickly started to run. Cheng Hong asked in a panic: “What do you want to do? Where is my father?”
“Second master, Master is busy today. You can’t spoil his plan,” Wang Qing recovered his voice.
Cheng Hong was shocked: “Wang Qing? What are you trying to do? Treating me this way!”
“Second master, you will destroy the Master’s plan!” Wang Qing only felt more and more dissatisfied with Cheng Hong.
Although Shi Qingyang reacted very quickly just now, Cheng Hong’s performance certainly could make people guess… They could only hope that Li Rong and his subordinates had chased the convoy out of the city now, and couldn’t be contacted outside the city. As long as he had left the city, he would not get any information from within the city bounds.
After all, it was very difficult for Li Rong to win over high-level rad-warriors to help him. If he really wanted to deal with those prisoners, he would probably have to do it himself…
Wang Qing hoped that Li Rong had left the city, but Li Rong had not left the city yet.
Li Rong was a level-6 rad-warrior. When he was young, he also joined a hunting team. He had gotten famous in Central City. Later, he could not make any further achievements in his rad-energy, so he chose to enter the arena of becoming a government official.
No matter ordinary people or rad-warriors, they could both get involved in politics. But there was no doubt that the people would always favor leaders with strong ability when they voted. They thought that such leaders could give people a sense of security, and people with strong strength usually had a good family background…
Under such circumstances, in the future, some important positions tacitly agreed that only the strong could take them over, and they also shouldered the responsibility of defending the city.
Although Li Rong was born in Central City, his background wasn’t outstanding. If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t have even had to watch out for Cheng Hong. He wouldn’t have had to climb up step by step by himself and even rely on the mobile town to make money and win people over…
Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for him to get another level-6 rad-warrior like himself to work for him.
But Wang Qing, who escorted Ao Zhi and the Yin family out of the city, was also a level-6 rad-warrior…
Li Rong looked at the two bottles of medicine in front of him and looked grave. In fact, these two potions were also related to the Yin family. Two years ago, the Yin family wanted to please him and sent some matured ah furong [T/N poppy, a flower which is used to make opium], and he asked someone to make them into medicine.
In ancient times, ah furong was a drug that could addict and excite people. Now it was used to refine a medicine that could stimulate one’s potential and enhance their strength for a short time.
The effect of this medicine was the same as that of the potential potion, but the side effects were much smaller than that of the potential potion, and the duration is longer. There was no pain in the body after taking it, so its combat effectiveness after consumption was stronger than that of the potential potion.
He kept this thing around just in case, but now if he wanted to kill those witnesses in Wang Qing’s hands, he must take this medicine.
Li Rong looked at the medicine in front of him, but he couldn’t make up his mind for a moment. He was used to being cautious, and naturally had many doubts in the face of such a risky thing.
After a moment’s hesitation, he connected to a chat with one of his subordinates: “How is Cheng Xuze now?” Cheng Xuze probably thought that he was just a level-6 rad-energy warrior, so he only asked Wang Qing to escort him.
“After Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran got married, Cheng Xuze took them to the hotel, and later Cheng Hong came,” Li Rong’s staff gave a brief account of the situation.
“Send the video,” Li Rong said. Cheng Xuze had ruined everything for him…
The video was sent quickly. Li Rong stared at the video for a long time, and his face became more and more ugly.
He originally thought that he still had a chance to overturn the deal. In the absence of material evidence, as long as those pieces of human evidence were gotten out of the way, there wouldn’t be any other evidence left to incriminate him. Unexpectedly… Although his subordinates didn’t find anything unusual, he saw Cheng Hong’s strangeness at a glance.
This should be Cheng Xuze setting up a trap for him? It seemed that Cheng Xuze had definitely determined that he was the culprit and planned to force him to a dead end!
Li Rong’s eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty. Originally, he hadn’t been willing to take risks, but…
