Ditsy Wife: Mysterious Husband is Unfathomable

Identity Exposed

With that, Sheng Donglin drove away.

Gong Fei watched blankly as the car disappeared into the distance. Her heart surged in light of the perilous situation and she turned around and dashed off, unable to wait to tell the rest the news.

Everyone went to Tian Cheng’s house after leaving the restaurant. They chatted as they waited for news from Gong Fei. Tian Cheng felt uncomfortable listening to all of the things that everyone was saying behind Mama Gong and Gong Mo’s backs. She said to Little Aunt Gong, “Mom, I’m going to do my homework.”

“Go, go,” Little Aunt said hurriedly.

Tian Cheng went back into the house immediately. A short while later, Little Aunt Gong brought in a glass of iced fruit juice. “Don’t overwork yourself. Have some fruit juice to reduce heat,” she said, smiling.

She then took a newspaper and placed it on the desk as a coaster for the fruit juice. Tian Cheng nodded. After her mother left, she continued to spin her ballpoint pen, bored to death.

Condensation soon began to form on the surface of the fruit juice glass and droplets of water slid down onto the newspaper. When Tian Cheng took up the glass and took a drink, she noticed that there was a ring of water on the middle of the newspaper. She reached out to brush the water away and flipped it open to read.

After she entered high school, Little Aunt Gong became very strict with her and did not allow her to read any extracurricular books, so reading newspapers became her only respite. Suddenly, a line of large font came into view. “Sheng Corporation’s CEO Sheng Zhongtian Announces the Severance of His Relationship With Second Son Sheng Nanxuan!”

Shocked, Tian Cheng skimmed the contents of the page. Then, she heard Gong Fei’s voice ring out from outside. She quickly folded the newspaper and listened carefully to what was going on outside.

“I’ve got news!” said Gong Fei. “It came from the horse’s mouth. Sheng Donglin says that he’s his brother!”

“What?!” Everyone else was shocked.

“Don’t worry!” assured Gong Fei. “Sheng Donglin has already cut ties with Sheng Nanxuan, so we have nothing to be afraid of. Oh, and Sheng Donglin said that it’s been reported in the news, but I don’t know which paper. Let’s try to find it!”

Little Aunt said, “Let’s search the house! I took some newspapers from the train earlier. I’ll go look for them!”

She took the newspapers so that she could use them as wrapping paper or coasters, but had never read them.

Upon hearing this, Tian Cheng immediately pulled out her drawer, took out a recorder, stuffed its connected earphones into her ears, and then picked up her English book, pretending to listen to vocabulary.

A while later, Little Aunt Gong walked in. Tian Cheng turned around and took out her earphones.

Little Aunt smiled and patted her shoulder. “Continue listening. I’m just going to take something.” With that said, she removed the newspaper from under the glass of fruit juice.

Tian Cheng looked down and stuffed the earphones back in quietly. When the door closed, she immediately took out her phone and called Gong Mo.

“Cousin Momo! Cousin Feifei just went to look for your Cousin-in-law’s older brother! She said that Cousin-in-law’s family has cut ties with him and that it’s been published in the newspapers! I just saw the article myself.”

Shocked, Gong Mo said hurriedly, “Got it! Thanks, Chengcheng!”

Sheng Nanxuan was currently at her house. After ending the call, she told him the news immediately.

Sheng Nanxuan said nonchalantly, “It’s alright. It’s the truth anyway and they would have gotten wind of it sooner or later.”

Gong Mo said anxiously, “But my relatives… you’ve seen how they’re like. If they know of this, they won’t take it lying down.”

Mama Gong said angrily, “They won’t take things lying down? I’m the one who doesn’t take things lying down! Anyway, I already said that they’re not allowed to come to the wedding. If they crash it, I’ll never talk to them ever again!”

Sheng Nanxuan patted Gong Mo’s shoulders. “Listen to Ma.”
