Chapter 784 Pleading

Chapter 784: Chapter 784 Pleading

Cheng Feiyang took Cheng Xining to the hospital, her facial injury wasn’t serious; it was just a scrape. However, Xining had been pampered since childhood, making a big fuss over every little scratch.

This time, with the injury on her face, it goes without saying that she threw a temper tantrum at the medical staff at the hospital, then went home crying and wailing.

"Xining, what happened to you? Why are you crying? What’s with your face? Who bullied you? Why are you so dirty?" Mother Cheng, distressed, pulled Cheng Xining close; her precious daughter had actually been hit. She had never even dared to slap her daughter, who would be so bold?

"Mom." Cheng Xining’s lips quivered and before she could say anything, she started crying loudly.

"Oh dear! Stop crying and tell mom what happened," Mother Cheng comforted her while wiping her tears.

"What happened here?" Father Cheng came out from the study, and seeing Cheng Xining crying so sadly, he frowned deeply, "What happened to your face? Did you get into a fight?"

Cheng Xining didn’t speak, just kept on crying, looking very aggrieved. Seeing this, Father Cheng then turned his gaze to Cheng Feiyang, "Feiyang, what’s going on here?"

"Uncle, cousin got scratched by a piece of a broken glass, but the doctor said the cut isn’t deep, it won’t leave a scar, and it will heal over time; she just needs to eat less soy sauce for a while." To tell the truth, in Cheng Feiyang’s eyes, this wasn’t Shen Mianmian’s fault; after all, it was his cousin who started it. If it hadn’t been for He Nan’s timely intervention, Mianmian could have been hit and injured worse than his cousin.

Besides, getting scraped by flying glass shards was an accident.

"Is this a matter of whether or not a scar will remain?" Mother Cheng’s face darkened as she demanded, "Tell me clearly, what exactly happened? Who bullied her?"

Father Cheng also frowned at Cheng Feiyang.

With a troubled expression, Cheng Feiyang thought, had he known he’d be dragged into this by bringing his cousin to the door, he would have gone back home to avoid the mess. Now, pressed by his uncle and aunt, he was in a difficult position, forced to downplay the incident as much as he could.

"My cousin was having coffee with friends, and accidentally spilled it. The fragments from the cup scratched her face..."

Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Xining interrupted him, "Feiyang, why aren’t you telling the truth? Are you protecting Shen Mianmian too? What’s so good about her that you all take her side?"

Cheng Feiyang: "..."

"Xining, then you tell us what happened," Father Cheng, seeing that Cheng Xining was willing to speak, directly handed her the floor.

"Right, Xining, stop crying, and tell us what’s going on," Mother Cheng tenderly wiped her tears.

"Mom, do you remember Shen Mianmian I told you about before? It’s her who bullied me." Cheng Xining’s tears kept falling as she spoke with aggrievement, "Nan even rented an apartment for her, right near my uncle’s place. I begged her to leave Nan, I even promised to take care of her schooling expenses if she would just agree to leave Nan. But she didn’t agree; instead, she threw coffee at me, and she’s the one who injured my face."

Upon hearing this, Father and Mother Cheng’s expressions immediately turned grave.

Mother Cheng was even more furious, "This Shen Mianmian, has she eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard?"

Cheng Feiyang was somewhat speechless; his cousin’s ability to lie through her teeth was too formidable. Wasn’t this going to blow things out of proportion?

"What’s the background of this Shen Mianmian?" Father Cheng had never bothered with these matters, and this was the first time he heard the name Shen Mianmian.
