Chapter 612 - Fainting

“Dead,” Ye Cheng said flatly as he wiped his hands with a piece of tissue.

Zhuang Ning could not help but raise her voice as she asked, “Dead? How could someone die so young?”

Ye Cheng raised his head and asked suspiciously, “How did you know she was young?”

Zhuang Ning’s expression froze for a moment before she said, “There aren’t many managers who are old. For someone like your sister, her manager shouldn’t be old.”

Ye Cheng nodded. “You’re right.”

“How did she die?” Zhuang Ning asked persistently.

Ye Cheng frowned. “I think she died in a fire. I’m not sure about the specifics. Your Xiao Peng used to be her assistant. Did she not mention it to you before? I didn’t expect that the little assistant would become a manager in less than two years. Moreover, you’re even the first artiste whom she’s managing. She’s really lucky to have you.”

A smile appeared on Ye Cheng’s face after she finished speaking

Zhuang Ning rose to her feet abruptly and said, “I’m going to check and see if there are any more fruits in the fridge.”

When she spoke, she could not stop her voice from trembling slightly. Clearly, Yang Li’s death was not worth mentioning at all to Ye Cheng.

In the kitchen, Yang Li cut open a watermelon. She brought the knife down on it over and over again, causing the juice to splash on the chopping board.

Ye Cheng, who came to the kitchen, saw this scene and quickly grabbed her hand. “What’s wrong? How can you cut a watermelon like that?”

Zhuang Ning looked at the bright red watermelon juice before she slowly revealed a sweet smile on her face and said, “I just want to chop it into smaller pieces so it’s more convenient for you to eat.”

Ye Cheng gently kissed her hand that was holding onto the knife and said in a soft voice, “Silly. There’s no need for you to do this. Quickly go and wash your hands and change your clothes. Leave this to me.”

Zhuang Ning lowered her head and looked at her hands that were dripping with the watermelon juice and her home clothes that had been stained by the watermelon juice. She was briefly stunned by them, Then, she turned around to walk out. However, just when she was at the entrance of the kitchen, her body suddenly went limp, and she fell down.

“Zhuang Ning!” Frightened, Ye Cheng hurriedly set the knife down before he rushed to her.

...

Ye Cheng drove as he looked at Zhuang Ning who was lying in the backseat of the car through the rearview mirror. He did not have time to wait for the ambulance so he decided to drive her to the hospital.

At this time, his phone began to ring. It was his father.

After answering the call, Ye Cheng asked, “Dad, what’s the matter?”

Ye He’s voice was filled with excitement as he said, “Son, listen to me. I found out about something. The adopted son of the Mu family, Cheng Che, do you know him? Damn it! As it turns out, he’s the Eldest Young Master of the Yin family that was lost a long time ago. It wasn’t easy for me to find the Yin family and persuade them to work with me. With their help, I won’t have to fear that Ning Zhe. Zhuang Ji will belong to us sooner or later. I want that Ning Zhe to die a horrible death!”

Ye He scoffed coldly at the end of his words.

Ye Cheng naturally caught the crux of the matter. “Dad, what is it about Cheng Che again?”

“Cheng Che is the eldest son of Yin Bin from the Yin family. He’s the future heir of the Yin family!”

Screech!

Ye Cheng stepped on the brakes immediately upon hearing these words. Then, he asked again, “Cheng Che is the heir of the Yin family?”

“That’s right! What the f*ck! I didn’t expect that kid to have such a good family!” Ye He cursed.

Ye He’s grip on the steering tightened. After a moment, he interrupted Ye He and said, “Ye Cheng has always been managing Zhuang Ji.”

“That’s right! This is really troublesome,” Ye He said with a sigh.

“Dad, what are your plans?” Ye Cheng bluntly asked. He knew his father did not call to gossip with him.

Ye He gulped loudly before he said, “Son, there’s something I need to discuss with

you.”

“What is it?” Ye Cheng asked directly.

“There’s a Young Miss in the Yin family. She’s Cheng Che’s biological sister. Currently, she’s single. She once had a fiance, but he died before they got married. Yin Bin has always wanted to find a suitable family for her to marry into.”
