Chapter 42: Bad News

Chapter 42: Bad News

Translator: Lonelytree

The Chen Family was so ecstatic from hearing the good news that they forgot about the bad news.

However, they didn’t think the bad news could be that bad. Xiao Lingyu probably wanted to scare them because Chen Ran didn’t marry her.

Lan Erying sized up Xiao Lingyu. She had always been dissatisfied with Xiao Lingyu. Lan Erying said in a picky and disdainful tone, “Xiao Lingyu, don’t think about spreading lies and revenge simply because my son doesn’t want to marry you.”

Mother Xiao hurried to shield Xiao Lingyu and said sternly, “Lan Erying, do you think we’re that crazy? The moment we say something negative about your family, we’re being crazy or jealous? Who do you think you are?” Mother Xiao paused for a moment before continuing in a powerful aura. “In the past, we have allowed you to be unreasonable because we didn’t want to add to Chen Ran and Yu ‘Er’s troubles. However, now that Chen Ran has found another wife, we don’t need to care about your feelings anymore. Yu ‘Er, tell them the bad news!” Mother Xiao was also tired of them already.

Mother Xiao tolerated many things in the past because her daughter might marry into the Chen Family. The Xiao Family had swallowed all grievances because they didn’t want to add to Yu ‘Er’s burdens. However, things were different now. Since they were no longer related, why care about their feelings anymore?

Xiao Lingyu obliged and nodded. “Sure. The bad news is, once Chen Ran married the CEO’s daughter, the company was gone. Also, Chen Ran was stabbed by his new wife. Who knows if he’s still alive or not.” Xiao Lingyu couldn’t care less about the man.

“What?” Chen Dahua and Lan Erying were shocked. “You’re lying! How is this possible?”

They just found out their son was to be rich but right the next moment, they were told their son’s father-in-law lost his company, and his son was stabbed. This… this was impossible.

Xiao Lingyu knew they couldn’t accept the truth, so she added, “Why would I lie to you? Right, didn’t you say you were going to City Z? Chen Ran must have wanted you to attend his engagement party that would have happened in another half a month. However, something happened, and that engagement got turned into an early marriage.”

Lan Erying’s eyes darted about guiltily when she heard Xiao Lingyu. The latter was right. It was Chen Ran who informed them to go to City Z. Chen Ran didn’t tell them it was for his engagement, and they didn’t hear a thing about it. However, that was not the most important thing now. According to Xiao Lingyu, Chen Ran was stabbed by his wife.

Chen Dahua and Lan Erying were shocked and then flustered. They were caught in disbelief. Chen Dahua pointed at Xiao Lingyu and stammered, “What did you say? Ran ‘Er was injured? How is that possible?”

Lan Erying suddenly growled as she widened her eyes at Xiao Lingyu. “It was you, wasn’t it? You were the one who stabbed Ran ‘Er. You couldn’t stand him marrying another woman, so you wanted revenge. You have stabbed Ran ‘Er and came back here to hide. No, we will not let you get away. We will call the police to come to catch you. That has to be the truth.” The more she described it, the more she believed herself. The Chen Family agreed with her.

“That’s right, second sister. That has to be it.” Lan Erying’s younger brother, Lan Zhaigou concurred, “Second sister, you need to go to the police station to get the police. Brother-in-law and I will stay behind to stop the murderer from running away.”

Chen Dahua also reacted and said, “Yes. Go and call the police!” The rest of the Chen Family chimed in.

Lan Erying nodded. “Okay, I’ll go get the police. You guys mustn’t let her get away.”

By then, other villagers of Taoyuan Village had gathered.

Lan Erying shouted, “Xiao Lingyu, your murderer. You stabbed my son because he didn’t want to marry you. Just you wait. I’ll get the police to come to arrest you.”

The villagers were shocked when they heard Lan Erying.

“What? Xiao Yu stabbed someone?”

“Chen Ran didn’t marry Xiao Yu?”

“What’s going on?”

“Could Xiao Yu really be a murderer?”

“Are you crazy? Xiao Yu is such an obedient and sensible child. Qiuying asked her to kill a chicken one time, and Xiao Yu didn’t even dare to do that. How would she have the guts to stab someone?”

“That’s right. We watched Xiao Yu grow up. She wouldn’t do something like this. Plus, do you really believe the Chen Family?”

“You’re right. The Chen Family has been saying so many bad things about Xiao Yu simply because Xiao Yu liked their son. They even took advantage of Xiao Yu. And now they’re saying Xiao Yu has stabbed their son? It’s preposterous!”

However, there were some villagers who sided with the Chen Family.

“You don’t know for sure. Didn’t you hear Mother Chen? Xiao Yu stabbed Chen Ran because he refused to marry her. Hell has no fury on a woman scorned.”

“Xiao Yu is a sensible child, but we’re talking about matters of relationship. She is always love-crazy, or else she wouldn’t have seduced Chen Ran when he was only fifteen. The whole village knows how shameless she is!”

Normally, they wouldn’t dare to say something like this. However, today, they had the Chen Family’s backing.

Mother Xiao immediately moved to stop Lan Erying. Mother Xiao’s face darkened. “Lan Erying, don’t go spouting nonsense without evidence. Your son was stabbed by his new wife. What does that have to do with my Yu ‘Er?”

She paused and then added with contempt. “When you heard your son was stabbed, you didn’t care about his injury but instead try your best to slander my Yu ‘Er’s name. You two are such good parents.”

The villagers started to gossip again.

“The Chen Family’s son is married?”

“So it was his new wife who stabbed him?”

“This is unbelievable.”

“That’s right.”

Lan Erying was so angry that her face turned pale.

At this moment, a young man suddenly ran over shouted loudly, “Uncle Chen, Auntie Chen, the village chief wants to see you.. He just received a call from City Z Hospital. Brother Chen Ran was stabbed!”
