Chapter 267 - 267: Stress Reaction
“Get out! All of you, get out!” Cheng Shi threw out everything she could touch and shouted hysterically, “I’m not sick at all. What right do you have to ask me to take medicine?
The sound of things falling and shattering rang out one after another. This sound was accompanied by the dull sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. The two sounds mixed together and appeared very ear-piercing and unpleasant to hear.
Cheng Shi’s father’s expression was extremely ugly, but he still had to smile. “Young Master Ling, you’ve seen my daughter’s appearance. It’s my fault for not realizing that her condition was so serious earlier. However, before the incident, I had already ordered someone to lock her up at home. Who knew that she would sneak out and do such a foolish thing!’
In front of the Cheng family’s head was Ling Feng, who had been kidnapped by Cheng Shi.
Ling Feng laughed coldly. “Mr. Cheng, are you implying that Cheng Shi ran out alone because she lost her mind? This matter has nothing to do with the Cheng family, right?”
Mr. Cheng looked at Ling Feng and didn’t say anything. He only used a smile to hide his true thoughts.
Now, as long as the Cheng family could insist that Cheng Shi was sick, the Ling family would not be able to blame them.
Mr. Cheng’s plan was very good, but the sound of things being smashed and Ling Feng’s cold and intimidating aura made Mrs. Cheng, who was so scared that she couldn’t figure out the relationship between them. She carefully said to Ling Feng, ‘Yeah… Cheng Shi did all those silly things because she liked you too much. Young Master Ling, you have the upper hand. Please let Cheng Shi off this time!”
As Mrs. Cheng spoke, she panicked and reached out to pull Ling Feng’s arm to plead for her daughter. She thought that she could use her age and seniority to make Ling Feng show her some respect.
Mrs. Cheng never expected that her trick would be completely useless.
When Ling Feng saw her actions, he immediately took a big step back. Even if she didn’t touch him, Ling Feng still flicked his clothes and an undisguised look of disgust appeared on his face, “I was wondering, so Cheng Shi’s bad habit of not knowing her limits and clinging to everyone she saw was learned from her mother.”
The malice in his words stunned Mrs. Cheng on the spot.
Mrs. Cheng couldn’t believe that he would say such blunt and vicious words so rudely.
After all, she was his elder!
Mrs. Cheng’s face instantly turned pale. She opened her mouth to refute, but she could not say a word.
Mr. Cheng glared at his disappointing wife and pulled her behind him. He promised Ling Feng, “It’s my fault for not being able to discipline her properly. This kind of thing will never happen again. I hope Young Master Ling can be lenient on this patient.”
“In the future?” Ling Feng’s patience was running out. He didn’t want to waste time listening to these meaningless words. “Mr. Cheng, if you really want to apologize, you should take some practical action instead of playing word games with me.”
“Then, Young Master Ling, what do you think…” Mr. Cheng instantly understood.
“Since Miss Cheng is a patient, then she should stay where a patient should be and not let her do whatever she wants. Am I right, Master Cheng?” Ling Feng looked at the Cheng couple indifferently.
Since the Cheng family wanted to use Cheng Shi’s abnormal mental state to make a fuss, Ling Feng also felt that Cheng Shi was a lunatic. Since she was a lunatic, then it was most appropriate to lock her up in a mental hospital, so that she wouldn’t come out and continue to harm others.
Mr. Cheng hesitated and didn’t agree immediately.
Mrs. Cheng tugged at his sleeve, her heart filled with anxiety. Her gaze was fixed on Zhao Fei, who was standing behind Ling Feng without saying a word.
From the moment she stepped into the Cheng family’s door, Zhao Fei followed closely behind Ling Feng.
Now, everyone was saying that the whole thing was Cheng Shi’s fault, but Mrs. Cheng didn’t think so.
In Mrs. Cheng’s eyes, if Zhao Fei hadn’t stepped forward to point out that she was hitting Cheng Shi when she was down, perhaps things wouldn’t have turned out so badly. Perhaps if Ling Feng and Cheng Shi had spent more time together, perhaps Ling Feng would have known how good Cheng Shi was.
After all, in her eyes, her daughter was so outstanding, so smart and capable.
Zhao Fei looked up and met Mrs. Cheng’s eyes with a vicious gaze. Even though she had been mentally prepared before she came, her heart could not help but tremble when she saw such a terrifying gaze..
