Chapter 706: I’ve Embarrassed You

Chapter 706: Chapter 706: I’ve Embarrassed You

This is just completely unreaonable!

Cheng Linye felt that Shi Yaoguang was simply being ridiculously troublesome.

So what if she’s a Best Actress, that’s so impressive?

Does being a Best Actress mean everyone should recognize her?

And he’s not allowed to not use the internet?

Cheng Lingdang, seeing his life-questioning expression, started to laugh triumphantly, "People like you, of course, don’t know what’s going on. Let me tell you how things are."

"My master is indeed a Best Actress, but she’s more than just a Best Actress."

The commotion that Shi Yaoguang caused online was no small matter.

Ordinary people, even if they don’t watch TV or movies, they still see the posters and ads on the streets, right?

Even if you don’t look at ads, that’s no reason not to recognize Shi Yaoguang.

Shi Yaoguang, as officially announced, contributed treasures like the Space Button, Protection Shield, and Yaoguang Flower - technological inventions that benefit the country and the people.

Just ask any random kid on the street, and they’d be able to tell you who she is.

Not to mention someone Cheng Linye’s age.

Let’s not even talk about other slip-ups, just not recognizing Shi Yaoguang is suspicious enough.

Cheng Linye has always looked down on women; he never expected he himself would fall because of one someday.

He was practically on the verge of an emotional shutdown.

But on the other hand, the reason Cheng Linye’s identity was exposed so quickly wasn’t solely because he didn’t recognize Shi Yaoguang.

Shi Yaoguang is indeed a celebrity, with a widespread reputation, and it’s normal that not everyone would recognize her.

The reason Cheng Linye was identified by Shi Yaoguang was also because he didn’t hide his little tail well enough.

Furthermore, Bai Tangyuan’s identity was indeed suspicious.

If it wasn’t for multiple factors coming together, Shi Yaoguang wouldn’t dare to be certain that this person wasn’t from the Cheng Family.

Regarding illegitimate children and such, all kinds of appearances are possible.

There simply was no basis to definitively label him a fake from the start.

"Just who are you?"

Having his identity exposed, Cheng Linye knew he couldn’t keep up the pretense at the Cheng family anymore.

He couldn’t help but question Shi Yaoguang, wanting to understand her real identity.

He just couldn’t believe that a mere performer could bring about his downfall.

In his view, Best Actress and such were only empty titles.

No matter how capable, she was just a performer; he refused to believe that a performer could see through his disguise.

It must be that Shi Yaoguang was some kind of undercover agent.

Cheng Linye’s mind raced with various guesses, but the answer he got was beyond his expectations.

"My identity..." Shi Yaoguang dragged out her words, "If you absolutely need a definition, then think of me as a victim."

"Victim?"

What the hell!

He felt, Shi Yaoguang was just messing with him on purpose!

Her?

A victim?

What a joke!

Even scammers don’t play people like this.

How very little she must think of him.

Cheng Linye silently ridiculed, complained, and was dissatisfied in his heart.

He just never expected that Shi Yaoguang wasn’t lying at all.

What she said was the truth.

"I’m not lying to you," Shi Yaoguang shrugged with an expression of helplessness, "To tell you the truth, if I weren’t a victim, I wouldn’t have been able to see through your disguise."

Cheng Linye, the illegitimate child who came knocking, naturally made adequate preparations.

In the Cheng Family, aside from Cheng Xingjian, Xiao Mingyue, and Cheng Lingdang, no one else doubted the identity of Cheng Linye the illegitimate child.

It’s just that Cheng Linye was unlucky.

Cheng Xingjian and Xiao Mingyue, as a loving couple, were exemplary.

Their affection was not easily shaken by some causal instigation from Cheng Linye.

That’s why they had not simply believed him.

Otherwise, if it were anyone else, they might have actually believed it.

If the Cheng Family had believed Cheng Linye, Cheng Lingdang would not have sought help from Shi Yaoguang, and this situation would not have occurred.

If Shi Yaoguang had not been certain that Quan Jinbei was still a virgin, ahem, repeating this issue was indeed very embarrassing.

But for the sake of righteousness, Shi Yaoguang felt it was necessary to clarify things thoroughly.

Putting together various clues, she confirmed there was an issue with Bai Tangyuan’s identity.

Although the paternity test had not been conducted yet, there was an eighty percent chance that the results would show a blood relationship between Bai Tangyuan and Quan Jinbei.

What kind of underhanded manipulation was at play, Shi Yaoguang was not yet clear.

However, she could be sure of one thing.

That was...

Bai Tangyuan had absolutely nothing to do with Quan Jinbei.

Coming back to the matter of the Cheng Family, it was a case of history repeating itself.

Even if Cheng Linye produced a DNA test report, it could still completely prove that Cheng Linye was unrelated to the Cheng Family.

Cheng Linye, unwilling to accept this, asked, "On what grounds are you saying my DNA test is fake?"

"I did not say your test report was fake," Shi Yaoguang replied.

Hearing this, Cheng Linye immediately became agitated, "You also said it, my test report is not fake, so why do you continue to doubt me?"

"Even if I did something, it’s an internal matter of the Cheng Family, what does it have to do with you? You’d better mind your own business!"

Having said this, Cheng Linye looked towards the Cheng Family patriarch, "Grandpa, I’m your own grandson, you won’t disown me, right?"

The old man snorted coldly, "Don’t call me grandpa, I am not your grandpa."

Now that the patriarch was clear-headed, he would no longer be led by the nose by Cheng Linye.

In fact, there were enough heirs in the Cheng Family.

They didn’t lack one like him at all.

Compared to a grandson with such clearly ulterior motives, he much preferred a granddaughter like Cheng Lingdang.

Not to mention, Cheng Lingdang had been very clever since childhood, and he had always liked her very much.

If it hadn’t been for a sudden complication, Cheng Linye wouldn’t even have had a chance to show his face.

Cheng Linye, with an incredulous expression on his clothes, "Grandpa, are you really disowning me? Have you forgotten that I am Cheng Xingjian’s only son?"

"What do you mean ’only son’?" Cheng Lingdang was very dissatisfied, "Do you think I am dead? Besides, dad doesn’t even acknowledge your existence. It’s uncertain where you came from, so don’t be in a rush to call out to dad and grandpa."

Cheng Linye glared at her, "What business is it of yours?"

"It’s because I am the young miss of the Cheng Family!" Cheng Lingdang retorted confidently, "I am, after all, destined to inherit the family!"

Alright, that statement was purely nonsense.

Cheng Lingdang had no intention of inheriting the family business.

She was running her own small business now and couldn’t be happier.

Inheriting the family business could be left to the other cousins.

Thinking about her small business, she almost laughed out loud.

When she began learning from Shi Yaoguang, she never thought she would really make a name for herself.

Now, her business was not much weaker than that of the Cheng Family.

And there were her cultivation skills.

Thinking of cultivation, Cheng Lingdang suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

She was following her master in the practice of cultivation, yet she couldn’t even handle an illegitimate child.

It really was a disgrace to her master.

Reflecting on this, Cheng Lingdang simply decided to apologize to Shi Yaoguang.

"Master, I’m sorry," said Cheng Lingdang with sincere remorse. "I was too incompetent before, letting this trash exploit a loophole. I’ve embarrassed you."

The words that followed, she conveyed to Shi Yaoguang using a secret transmission.

"I, a cultivator, can’t even handle a mere mortal, it’s my own lack of skill..."
