Cheng Xingjian, upon hearing the words of the Cheng family patriarch, felt like he was about to shut down completely.
Before Cheng Linye appeared, the relations within the Cheng family were quite harmonious.
Even if there were minor conflicts, they weren't irreconcilable.
They were generally resolved on the same day, and even those that couldn't be sorted out immediately dissipated quickly.
After Cheng Linye showed up, the Cheng family never had a moment of peace again.
No matter the gender, a person who stirs up trouble isn't easily accepted by others.
It could be said that in the eyes of Xingjian and his family, Cheng Linye was no different from a nefarious concubine who brought disaster upon the country.
"Cheng Linye!"
Shi Yaoguang stared at the illegitimate son, whose eyes were subtly gleeful, and called out his name.
Glancing at her with a condescending look, Cheng Linye responded,
"You haven't said who you are. Why are you calling my name?"
