Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Grandpa Cheng reached out and pulled Little Star into his arms. Little Star did not cry or make a fuss. Instead, he looked at Grandpa Cheng with wide eyes as if he was wondering who this white-haired old man was.
Grandpa Cheng had always liked children. When he looked at Little Star, his heart softened, while teasing the child, he teased Huo Chenhuan. “Little Huo, you’re still as skilled as ever in carrying the baby. It seems that you’ve helped Yanyan raise the child a lot at home. Now, Yanyan… You’re always like this when you’re at Grandpa’s place. I’m sure you don’t really take care of the baby at home.”
“Grandpa, you’re accusing me! It’s not that I don’t want to take care of the child, it’s just that this guy doesn’t let me. He even said that it’s inappropriate for a male and female to be close to one other and Little Star is a boy. If It’s a girl, he won’t stop me. If I really gave birth to a girl, he would still not let me take care of her. Two days ago, when Little Star kissed me, he even warned him not to compete with him. This made Little Star so angry that he cried. How old is this man that he’s even jealous of a baby? I really can’t do anything to him.”
The crowd, who originally just wanted to watch the show, was stuffed with a belly full of dog food. “…” Alright, alright. I know that you guys have a good relations.h.i.+p. There’s no need to show off in front of us anymore.
“Alright, alright. If there’s anything, let’s talk inside. Don’t just stand at the main entrance.”
When Cheng Junhao said this, everyone finally woke up from their dreams. The group of people walked into the courtyard.
Cheng Xiuqin and Su Yayan helped a few old servants to sort out the luggage that they had brought with them before entering the house. As soon as they sat down, they started to ask about serious matters.
“Dad, what’s going on? When I saw the news that something happened to you guys, my heart almost stopped. How could you not tell us such a big thing?”
The Cheng family’s incident had happened a few days ago, but the Cheng family had been keeping it a secret. In the past two days, the rumors outside had become more and more intense, and the public opinion was so big that it could not be kept a secret any longer. That was how Su Yayan and the others found out.
“They came so suddenly that we were a little caught off guard. But fortunately, a clean slate is a clean slate, and nothing major has happened, so there’s no need to worry.”
“This time, they didn’t cause any trouble, but it’s hard to say next time.” As soon as Cheng Junhao finished speaking, Su Yuxuan could not help but remind him.
“Yuxuan!” Cheng Xiuqin looked at her eldest son with disapproval.
“Mom, you’ve read so many news articles in the past two days. Didn’t you notice that these news articles are almost the same? Moreover, not long after Uncle’s family was involved in the accident, many online reporters and media outlets, including marketing accounts, seemed to be in unison and are already starting to make it sound like Grandpa and Uncle had already been convicted. Are the reports true?”
“This…” The few elders present really did not understand the public opinion marketing on the Internet as well as the young people. They looked at each other and did not just say what they should say.
However, Su Yayan immediately understood his words. Her eyes were slightly cold, she said coldly, “What brother means is that this matter is probably being manipulated behind the scenes, deliberately leading the public opinion in a direction that is disadvantageous to uncle and grandpa. This matter is very likely just the beginning. If we don’t find out who this person is, there might be endless trouble in the future. Grandpa, Uncle, have you found out who maliciously reported you?”
When Su Yayan asked this question, both of them shook their heads with solemn expressions.
Not to mention that the other party was anonymous, even if they were not, the information of such informants was mostly well protected. Otherwise, who would dare to casually report people like Grandpa Cheng, whose status was above their own?
