Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1920: Chapter 1922: A Man Without Integrity Cannot Stand

Cheng Yaozu went to comfort his wife, leaving the two of them staring at each other. Ning Ge was still upset that she hadn’t informed him, and turned away with a snort.

”Alright, this time it’s my fault. I should have told you earlier. I’m sorry, I was wrong, please don’t be mad,” Cheng Su said. ”I honestly thought you’d find out soon anyway. Otherwise, what are you up to? Since I promised her, as a person, I can’t go back on my word.”

Ning Ge glared at her several times.

”I’ll invite Song Jiaying out to play next time and give you more chances, put in some good words for you, okay?” Cheng Su continued to appease the young master.

That’s more like it.

”Forget it, I’m magnanimous, I won’t hold it against you,” Ning Ge snorted lightly.

Cheng Su immediately smiled and flattered, ”I knew you were generous. Don’t worry, as long as you’re sincere, you’ll definitely win both a wife and a son back home. The key is you truly love her.”

Ning Ge said, ”Then I really need to learn how to love someone!” He truly didn’t quite understand how to love.

”I’ll give you eight words: respect, trust, care, communication. Also, women need to be coaxed too. Even the most stubborn person can have a vulnerable moment. You just need to be attentive,” Cheng Su said with a smile.

Ning Ge looked thoughtful.

At this moment, Cheng Yaozu came over with a plate of snacks and set it down.

”What’s up?”

”I sent her back to the room to rest,” Cheng Yaozu said with concern, ”That silly girl, why didn’t she tell me? Bearing it alone—it pains me to death!”

Cheng Su looked at Ning Ge, ”See that?”

Ning Ge pursed his lips awkwardly.

Cheng Su thought of what she got from the orphanage, then took it out and asked, ”Did any of you send money to Little Cheng Su at the orphanage?”

The two exchanged a glance. No, we didn’t, why send money?

”That’s strange then. I don’t know who sent her money. I brought the receipt back to see if you could figure out where it came from and trace it back to the sender,” Cheng Su handed the envelope over, ”I wonder if it’s that assassin?”

Cheng Yaozu frowned, glanced at it, and then handed it over to Ning Ge. Ning Ge looked at it and directly put it in his pocket, ”I’ll have someone check it out.”

”Thanks.”

”Why are you so persistent? That child...” Cheng Yaozu couldn’t help but ask.

Cheng Su said, ”I absolutely must find that person, absolutely must find out the truth behind this child’s abandonment.”

Cheng Yaozu saw her determined look and couldn’t help but sigh, turning to Ning Ge to shake his head. She is stubborn too.

In Old Master Cheng’s study, Qi Xiaoqi was seriously playing chess with Old Master Cheng.

Though they were playing chess, Old Master Cheng was really pulling him aside, too lazy to involve himself in the young people’s affairs but still concerned, ”This time your godfather might be mad at your mom. And your mom, how could she hide such a matter? Old Master Ning must be very upset now, but he’s probably happy too. After all, it’s his grandson!”

Qi Xiaoqi fiddled with the chessboard, his small fingers clutching a white piece, moving it to the right place without looking up, ”A man without integrity cannot stand firm. My mom didn’t do anything wrong. Plus, what he did, he should bear on his own!”

Old Master Cheng heard this and was stunned, forgetting to make a move, staring at him blankly.

Qi Xiaoqi didn’t hear a response, looked up, and saw the old man’s dazed look. He thought it was a mistake, accidentally speaking philosophically, quickly flashed a grin and pretended to be innocent, ”That’s what my mom said.”

”Is that so?” Old Master Cheng laughed and ruffled his hair, ”Then your mom is right. That’s how people should be.” It must have been Cheng Su who said it, otherwise how would a little kid know?

Old Master Cheng chuckled at his own overthinking, not realizing that his black pieces had been completely surrounded by what seemed like a chaotic mess of white pieces.
