Why Did My Ex-Wife’S Aunt Treat Me Like That? Chapter 54

Chapter 54 Chapter 54 [Manager Peng Cheng]

Don’t look.

She doesn’t look.

Now it’s time to take a lunch break. If you don’t take a lunch break when you go to work, you will have to take a break all afternoon. Yuanyi made an excuse for herself in her heart.

Moreover, Peng Cheng would not send a large number of messages to himself at once.

Only those with bad manners do this.

She didn’t bother to read other people’s news, so she simply stopped reading.

After lying on the table for a long time, she suddenly raised her head from her arms, her eyes straightened: she was not sleepy, not sleepy at all.

Yuan Yi followed his heart and grabbed the phone, his eyes widened.

Peng Cheng: [Picture] [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]

Peng Cheng: [I just landed, I just went to the local place to take pictures]

Peng Cheng: [It was too early to get on the plane, so I didn’t tell you at that time.】

Peng Cheng: [Name changed]

The original intention is aroused.She thought of the name she had changed fifteen minutes ago: [Yuan Angui]

Speaking of which, this was the most normal name she had called in a long time. Yuan Yi thought no one had noticed.

In the picture sent by Peng Cheng, the sunrise is shrouded in a hazy mist, and the outline of the Eiffel Tower is looming.

It turns out that Peng Cheng went so far.

Yuan Yi then sent a scratching and embarrassed emoticon before replying: [Thank you for your hard work, I changed it casually]

After hesitating for a moment, Yuanyi sent another message: [Then when do you plan to come back?】

I wonder if he was busy, but this time Peng Cheng didn’t reply immediately, and it didn’t show that Peng Cheng was typing.

Yuan Yi felt relieved knowing that Peng Cheng didn’t ignore him on purpose, and began to deal with the absent-minded models he made in the morning.At the end of the lunch break, she received a reply from Peng Cheng.

【I can come back early.】

Well, this seems to be a bit ambiguous. Yuanyi felt keenly that Peng Cheng meant that she could squeeze the stroke, but this would be too hard. She hurriedly said: “No, no, I have nothing else to do.”I just want to tell you to remember to use medicated oil]

Peng Cheng really didn’t reply to her this time.

Because she had to go to the dome to hand over the designed white film on the weekend, Yuanyi started a life of two points and one line again.She shuttled between the company and the dormitory, because she knew that Peng Cheng was busy outside. Yuanyi would only ask Peng Cheng once every other day if he had applied medicated oil and if his knees were feeling better. Peng Cheng would always answer her that everything was fine.

Yuan Yi didn’t feel that she was perfunctory with her words. Peng Cheng had her own rhythm of replying. She was a person with a concise speech style.

After working overtime for five consecutive days, Yuanyi finally used Ling Xiaocheng as the prototype to recreate the image of the smart butler that the dome needed.

Although she has been working overtime this week, it is not difficult for Yuan Yi.

Because everyone else was very quiet this week, He Xun probably had no face to face her or something, and didn’t come to harass anyone. Yuan Yi was happy and peaceful, until before getting off work on Friday, Bi Youshan liked her in a small group of five people.

Bi Youshan: [@元 distressed. You can bring A Cheng over to Dr. Zhao for a review this Sunday~]

Yuan Yi waited for a while and found that Peng Cheng did not appear in the group, so he replied: [Doctor Bi, Peng Cheng has been on a business trip for a week and has not come back yet]

Bi Youshan: [!】

Bi Youshan: [@平成?】

Bi Youshan: [Didn’t you say you have nothing else to do this week?]

Peng Cheng didn’t reply, and Yuan Yi replied in a good-tempered manner: “This is also a temporary matter. I left in a hurry, so I might not have time to talk.”】

After a long time, Bi Youshan replied to her: [I think you can change your nickname to [Peng Cheng Manager]]

Yuan Yi smiled back.

Peng Cheng: [Stop joking around.】

Bi Youshan: [Come back quickly, why are you suddenly going to Paris]

Peng Cheng didn’t reply to her, and Yuan Yi also looked away.

She was going to the dome to hand over next Monday. She had nothing planned this weekend, so she was lying peacefully in the dormitory. Suddenly, she received a call from He Xun.

“I said last time that you had to go see what I was preparing, but I might not be able to take you there this week.” He Xun was staying in the bar at this time, looking at the text messages in front of him and getting bored, “I’m too busy this week.”

Every time she received a text message from her family asking her to do something, He Xun would start to feel annoyed. This pressure seemed invisible, but in fact it was a mountain that was always pressing on her shoulders, and she would be pressed down from time to time.

Whenever this happens, He Xun will choose to call Yuanyi to relieve the pressure.In the past, when she called Yuanyi, she would always lose her temper and deliberately command Yuanyi to do things that she knew would make a fool of herself.It couldn’t be done now, she knew Yuanyi wouldn’t do it.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as she can chat with Yuan Yi and say anything casually.

“Well, that’s it,” Yuan Yi answered the call perfunctorily, his head spinning, “Then go and do your work, what are you calling me for.” As long as you talk about useless things, saying another word to He Xun is a waste.

“Don’t hang up… I still have time to make a call.” He Xun spoke in a dull tone, and couldn’t help but fall out, “How did you manage to go to the cemetery? I hate going there, really.”

Yuanyi captured useful information: “You want to go there now?”

This was something she had never heard from He Xun before.

“Yes, my mother asked me to go there because my aunt always makes time to go there recently. You also know a little about our family’s situation. This month is very special.” He Xun said, “I shouldn’t be doing these things, but my aunt is not here now.”

“I don’t want to go, it’s so gloomy.” Knowing that He Xun was going to the cemetery, Ren Yingzhen declined because she had to work overtime. Her mother was pressing her hard, and He Xun knew that it was impossible not to leave.

Yuan Yi said: “Let me go with you. I can wait for you outside and not show up in front of your family.”

“Really? Yuanyuan, I know you still have me in your heart!” He Xun was suddenly pleasantly surprised, “I’ll come to pick you up now. You are so kind to Yuanyuan.”

“I’m already outside. Let’s meet at the entrance of the cemetery.” Yuan Yi had no intention of riding in the same car with He Xun, and deliberately found an excuse to urge, “Hurry up and leave.”

He Xun was very satisfied that she could find someone to accompany her. How could she care about so much? She agreed repeatedly, the emotion in her words was beyond words.Yuan Yi found it ridiculous. He Xun had done so many things in the past and ignored him, but now he was so moved just by verbally agreeing to something.

He Xun was also successfully trained by the military.

Driving very fast along the way, Yuanyi arrived early.There were bodyguards in black standing outside the funeral parlor next to the cemetery. Some of them looked familiar to Yuan Yi. They were with Peng Fei when they were at Peng’s house that day.

Peng Fei is inside.

In a funeral home?Shouldn’t Peng Fei be in the cemetery? Why would he go to the funeral parlor?

Yuan Yi frowned. Before he could figure this out, he saw a car slowly stopping from the corner of his eye. He Xun, wearing all black, got out of the car and ran toward him.

“Has it been a long time? Sorry, I was in a bit of a jam when I came from there.” He Xun’s attitude was very good, and he held Yuan Yi’s wrist as soon as he came over. She looked a little different from usual nervousness and caution.

Yuan Yi resisted the urge to push He Xun away and said expressionlessly: “Go quickly, the cemetery is over here.”

He Xun looked around fearfully: “I have to go to the funeral parlor first and will come out later. You wait for me outside and don’t leave.”

Just when He Xun was about to leave, Yuan Yi pinched the corner of He Xun’s clothes, curved his lips slightly, and showed a friendly and innocent smile: “Send hello to your aunt and grandma for me.”

He Xun pushed aside the bodyguards surrounding him and walked in. Yuan Yi did not move, observing his surroundings.The cemetery and the funeral parlor were very close to each other, and she had good eyesight. She saw the staff member Lin Shaoyan who was waiting in the duty room at the entrance of the cemetery.

Lin Shaoyan also noticed her, Yuanyi smiled and waved to her, and walked over as usual. Before Lin Shaoyan could say anything, she took out a small bag of snacks that she had prepared in her bag: “Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work. You are still on duty so late.”

“Hey, no, no, no, it’s all part of the job.” Lin Shaoyan saw that the snacks Yuan Yi brought were all popular in the city center. They looked small but expensive, so she reached out to reject them. She and Yuan Yi had met several times, and she knew that Yuan Yi and Peng Cheng had a good relationship, so she didn’t dare to neglect them.

Yuan Yi couldn’t help but stuff the things into Lin Shaoyan’s table: “It’s just a little thought. I can’t eat so much. Just take it. I’ve caused you a lot of trouble before.”

Lin Shaoyan couldn’t refuse so he accepted. He thanked Yuan Yi, poured Yuan Yi a cup of hot tea, and chatted casually: “Miss Yuan, are you here with Director Cheng again today?”

“No, um… her family asked me to accompany them to the funeral parlor, but it’s not convenient for me to go in and wait outside.” Yuan Yi said, “There are bodyguards standing there at the funeral parlor, and there is no place that needs me now.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Shaoyan’s expression changed and he responded suddenly.Yuan Yi didn’t say much, and drank tea quietly. After a while, Lin Shaoyan couldn’t hold it in any longer and said, “You are a friend of Director Cheng, and I would like to advise Director Cheng not to be too sad. It’s been so long, it’s time to look forward.”

Yuan Yi nodded calmly: “Life has to go on. I think she has already figured it out. It is impossible for a big family to have exactly the same thoughts. Some people can’t let go.”

Lin Shaoyan looked like he was hesitating to speak. Yuan Yi knew what Lin Shaoyan knew, and she didn’t ask more, and it seemed too deliberate when she asked.

Sure enough, I heard Lin Shaoyan say: “After all, I lost my daughter, so it’s normal that I can’t let go…”

Yuan Yi suppressed the smile on her face and nodded: “Mrs. Peng lost her eldest daughter, but her younger daughter is still there. She can’t always stay in the past.” Yuan Yi removed a brand-new coin from his pocket and fumbled gently.

Lin Shaoyan was transferred to the cemetery not long ago, but she was transferred from the funeral parlor next door.There are very few personnel changes in the funeral home, and most of them are old employees.No matter how the news is blocked from the outside world about major events that happen in the library, internal employees are all aware of it.

Among the things that happened over the years, the one that left the deepest impression on Lin Shaoyan was the one involving the Peng family.At that time, she had just taken a job at the funeral home, and she was specially asked about the Peng family by her former employees.

Seeing Yuan Yi’s expression, Lin Shaoyan felt a little uncomfortable. He murmured a few times and wanted to say something comforting, but after all, he was just an outsider. What he wanted to say was just a dry sentence: “Director Cheng probably didn’t want to think about what happened before, so he didn’t come to the funeral parlor.”

“Really?” Yuan Yi put down the disposable paper cup in his hand, looked at the crowd outside the funeral home, then turned to Lin Shaoyan and said, “This matter was not her fault in the first place.”

After saying that, she looked down at the floating tea leaves in her water glass, stopped speaking, and just drank tea silently.The waiting time was very long, and Lin Shaoyan was still the one who couldn’t calm down first. She had already regarded Yuan Yi as one with Cheng Dong in her heart. When she heard what Yuan Yi said, she thought that Yuan Yi knew all the inside information, so she said:

“What I’m talking about is… At that time, we all felt that this was an accident, that Director Cheng did nothing, and that Mrs. Peng was too harsh on her. Hey, this matter won’t become a knot between them, right? After all, people should be buried in peace after death.”

Yuan Yi’s heart tightened and he almost pinched the fragile paper cup and said, “Peng Cheng’s body suffered a lot of damage.”

“Definitely. It was very cold here at that time. The air-conditioning was not turned on in the area that was not an office. How could I stand kneeling for such a long time? And I heard that Director Cheng’s legs were not very good before.”

Yuan Yi closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was filled with coldness: “The cemetery is right next to it. Why should Mrs. Peng inconvenience the staff in the funeral home? She always goes to the funeral home to do something.”

“That’s not true. She comes every year and pays her money on time… The cabinet where Ms. Peng’s body was refrigerated has always been there. Mrs. Peng may have gotten used to it.” After Lin Shaoyan finished speaking, he clicked on the position of his sun, looked around and whispered, “After what happened that year, Mrs. Peng was greatly stimulated.”

Yuanyi suddenly stood up, startling Lin Shaoyan.

“Thank you for telling me this.” Yuan Yi put down the finished cup, thanked him and left quickly.

Returning to the door of the funeral home, Yuan Yi clenched his fist tightly, controlling his urge to rush in and question Peng Fei.

From Lin Shaoyan’s words, she had pieced together enough useful information.

After Peng Zhiya fell to death in Jiuhua Mountain and found her body and sent it to the funeral home, Peng Fei, who could not accept the fact, used his connections to keep Peng Zhiya’s body in the freezer without being buried.In previous pictures, Peng Fei was photographed frequently visiting the funeral parlor to respond.

Peng Fei often went to the funeral parlor to see Peng Zhiya, forming a habit and still coming many years later.

When she was at Peng’s house before, Yuanyi heard Peng Fei say to Peng Zihui that everything Peng Cheng is doing now is what he should do for his sister…

A lunatic.

Even if his brain was broken, he tortured his little daughter beyond recognition.

In other words, it was Peng Cheng who couldn’t stand it anymore and buried Peng Zhiya, but was punished by Peng Fei who couldn’t accept it.

So many years later, this punishment continued, making her walk up Mount Jiuhua year after year.

Yuan Yi tightly held the coin in his palm. This coin was the one he tossed when he coaxed Peng Cheng to put on his long johns and collect the tribute that night in the ancestral hall.

“…If you really pity your sister, let this farce end.” Yuan Yi was just glad that she didn’t ask Peng Cheng again about these things. These were wounds that she couldn’t bear to touch again.

How did Peng Cheng feel when he told himself that he could ask anything?Yuan Yi feels sad whenever he thinks about it.Only then did she realize that Peng Cheng’s trust in her was far higher than she thought.

Suddenly, there was a sound at the door of the funeral home, and someone came out.

Peng Fei walked very quickly, and He Xun applied anxiously to stop her, still saying something urgently. The bodyguards in black got out of the way, and Yuan Yi stood at the end and looked at them coldly.

“Don’t go, grandma, listen to me. Yuanyuan is just worried about me and came with me. She is not here because of what happened before… Really not! Really!” He Xun was still trying to persuade Peng Fei. Yuanyi knew that Peng Fei was here for him and stood motionless.

Peng Fei just made a slight gesture, and a bodyguard came forward to hold He Xun. Peng Fei stood in front of Yuan Yi: “What are you doing here?”

“You still want to say hello to me, where do you have the courage!” In this special place, Peng Fei’s mood was not stable. She turned around He Xun and Yuan Yi and said coldly: “The relationship between you and He Xun is your business. How can you be lawless just by being around Xun Xun? There is no way she will have another development with you.”

He Xun said anxiously: “Grandma! Please don’t!”

When the bodyguard was about to come forward, Yuan Yi sidestepped and avoided any direct conflict: “What’s the use of asking for your consent? I’m not with you.”

“Peng Cheng wouldn’t agree either.” Peng Fei glanced up and down at Yuan Yi, “You were once sponsored by Peng Cheng, but you didn’t show any favor at all. Instead, you came to my house to make trouble, and you still dreamed of a status you shouldn’t have.”

“Are you angry that I came to your house and pulled away the fig leaf? Or is your desire for control so great that everyone has to listen to you? Then I’m sorry. I love money and status. The Peng family is my best choice.”

Yuan Yi stared at Peng Fei, and said in a slow voice, neither humble nor arrogant: “I didn’t choose Peng Cheng because of the kindness of knowing me. I chose He Xun, so what do you think is bad? She is not your daughter, you can’t control so much. I heard that you are going to have family activities soon. I haven’t been to Shuyuan City yet, and I am looking forward to meeting you.”

I don’t know where this sentence stung Peng Fei. The woman’s pale face was flushed by the strong emotions: “It’s extremely ridiculous. A Cheng used to say that you have a simple personality. She has a bad taste in people and refuses to obey the discipline of her family, so she brought such a person here.”

“What’s the matter with Peng Cheng? It was He Xun who brought me here. I told her several times to break up, but what can she do if she can’t live without me?” Yuan Yi smiled and walked towards He Xun, “Your reaction is very interesting. I didn’t know you cared so much. In this way, He Xun and I will often appear in front of you in the future to help you desensitize.”

He Xun was still shocked by Yuan Yi’s confession and could not speak. Peng Fei said angrily: “He Xun, take her away from me and ask your aunt to come back as soon as possible.”

“You want Peng Cheng to punish me? That’s great. I want to see her so much, but I haven’t been able to see her recently.” Yuan Yi smiled and said, “I just saw that you didn’t care about Peng Cheng’s life and death, so I turned to He Xun.”

The bodyguards came forward, Yuan Yi quickly stepped back to avoid them, and the smile on his face disappeared.

It was okay not to mention Peng Cheng at first, but as soon as he heard Peng Cheng from Peng Fei’s name, Yuan Yi couldn’t suppress the fire in his heart.

She had no intention of fighting with the bodyguards at the entrance of the funeral home. They were just eating for a living. Yuanyi put her bag on the ground and rushed in front of Peng Fei.

“You care about more people than others.” Yuan Yi lowered his voice, “She has her own life, can you take care of it?”

Too close, Yuan Yi’s shoulders were held down by a strong man. She did not dodge anymore, but turned her face sideways. Peng Fei’s slap did not completely hit her, but his nails scratched several red marks on Yuan Yi’s face.

Peng Fei gave her a cold look: “This is our family matter, and you have no right to care about it.” She quickly left under the escort of her bodyguards.

Yuan Yi raised his eyebrows and squeezed the hand behind his back.

In the palm of his hand, there were a few hairs that Peng Fei had just pulled out when he was unprepared.
