Chapter 837: Grandchildren
Jiahui could not help but ask, “What about Guan Tang? They said that Cheng Che’s mother arranged for Cheng Che to be married to Guan Tang.”
Cheng Yi sneered. “How could Yi Wan do such a thing? She would never arrange her children’s marriages. I also heard about this woman! I got someone to investigate this matter. This matter is fabricated by the Guan family. They said that it was an agreement between Yi Wan and Guan Ning’s mother because they were best friends. How ridiculous! It’s unfortunate, but Guan Ning, that poisonous woman, was Yi Wan’s best friend. How did Yi Wan’s best friend suddenly become Guan Ning’s sister-in-law? Moreover, I’m not dead. How could I not know if Cheng Che has an arranged marriage?”
“That Guan Tang grew up by Guan Ning’s side. Their intentions could not be any more obvious. Initially, Guan Ning wanted to marry Guan Tang off to that b*tch Qin Shuang’s grandson. However, when she learned that the Yin family wanted to bring Cheng Cheback to the family, she pushed Guan Tang over. Let me tell you, that won’t happen! I won’t agree to it no matter what!”
Cheng Che could not help but smile bitterly as he thought to himself, ‘If I really like her, what can you do even if you disagree?’
However, Cheng Che had gained a rough understanding of his biological grandmother so he did not say anything to embarrass her.
Jiahui patted her chest and said, “We’ve been tricked so badly by that woman! She’s too despicable!”
Cheng Yi scoffed and patted Jiahui’s hand. “Don’t worry! Grandmother is here! There’s no need to be afraid of that woman! She’s the kind that won’t be able to sit still. Just watch, she’s definitely going to seek her own death!”
At this moment, Cheng Che looked at Cheng Yi and slowly asked, “What about Yin Jia?”
Cheng Yi did not say anything.
Cheng Che’s voice was very calm as he asked, “Is Yin Jia my biological sister? This can’t be fake, right?”
Cheng Yi nodded. “Yes, Yin Jia is your biological sister. As for the others, you have nothing to do with them. I know what you’re thinking. You blame me for not taking good care of her and not caring about her, right?”
“It’s true that Yin Jia is a poor child. Your mother and I have wronged her. In the beginning, when I just decided to leave the house, your mother chased after me to persuade me to stay. At that time, she ran into Guan Ning holding Yin Jia’s hand. Your mother has warned your father many times not to involve her child in his affairs, but your father turned a deaf ear and often let Guan Ning take care of Yin Jia. As a result, Yin Jia and Guan Ning were very close. When Yi Wan saw Guan Ning taking care of her child, she broke down.”
Cheng Yi sighed. “Perhaps, Yin Jia still hates your mother, but she’s unaware that it’s all caused by your father.
The others have nothing to do with you. I know what you want to say. You blame me for not taking good care of her. You blame me for not caring for her, right?”
“Yes, Yin Jia is a poor child. Grandmother and mother have let her down. When your mother chased me away from the Yin family, she wanted to persuade me to stay, but we ran into Guan Ning, who was holding Yin Jia’s hand!”
“Your mother warned your father many times not to touch her child, but your father turned a deaf ear and often handed Yin Jia over to Guan Ning to take care of. As a result, Yin Jia and Guan Ning were very close. When Yi Wan saw Guan Ning taking care of her child again, she broke down.”
Cheng Yi let out a long sigh of relief. “Perhaps Yin Jia also hated your mother, but she didn’t know that the real source was your father. Later on, I didn’t take Yin Jia away because I knew your father would treat her well. There’s a reason why I was confident Yin Jia would be treated well. I knew Yin De would dislike Yi Wan for giving birth to a daughter. Hence, I bribed someone to tell Yin Jia’s fortune, saying that Yin Jia is the Yin family’s lucky charm. I knew Yin De believed such things so he would definitely treat her well. Coincidentally, Yin Jia was involved with a few matters that cemented that fortune. With that, she didn’t live a bad life in the family. With Yin De’s protection, she has the high status of being the Eldest Young Miss of the Yin family and is living well.”
Cheng Che could not help but say, “She’s not living well. Her heart is filled with hatred.”
Cheng Yi was stunned. Previously, she had expected her grandson to blame her and refuse to acknowledge her. She was also prepared to face all kinds of ruthless words from Cheng Che since she knew she deserved it. However, what she did not expect was that Cheng Che did not care about himself but stood up for Yin Jia instead. She could not help but smile bitterly, thinking that Cheng Che was truly like his mother.
After a moment, Cheng Yi said softly, “Cheng Che, Yin Jia grew up in an environment more complicated than you. She’s not as simple as you think. In fact, I rather admire her shrewdness. Everyone has to pay a price for their growth. No one is perfect. And, you don’t have to feel sorry for her. She doesn’t need it.”
