We have severed our relationship, so who will still pamper you?

Cheng Wei suddenly heard the abnormally emotional voice of Cheng's mother. Her phone just happened to see a photo of Cheng Fenghao with white hair and ugly wrinkles all over his face, which was taken by a passerby.

She opened her mouth in surprise, unable to believe this was true.

how come?

Is this Cheng Fenghao? !

Cheng Wei's hands holding the phone were shaking wildly.

She suspected that she had seen it wrong, and quickly clicked on the picture to enlarge the details, trying to confirm whether it was Cheng Fenghao.

Even though Cheng Fenghao had turned into a ghostly appearance, Cheng Wei could still tell from the details that the man with completely white hair and wrinkles in the photo was Cheng Fenghao.

"Mom, you, you'd better not go and settle the score with him. The police will handle it anyway, and the families of the deceased will never let him go after they know that Cheng Fenghao is the murderer."

"The director of the orphanage where Xiaoye stayed as a child is also planning to sue Cheng Fenghao..." Cheng Wei spoke with an undisguised tremor in her voice.

She didn't want Cheng's mother to know that Cheng Fenghao had become like this.

Cheng Wei was a little worried that Cheng's mother couldn't bear it.

However, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen.

Before Cheng's mother could reply to Cheng Wei, Cheng Shiyan at the side suddenly widened her eyes and spoke faster than her brain.

"How come Cheng Fenghao has aged so much?!" Cheng Shiyan showed the photos on her phone to Cheng's father, Cheng's mother and Cheng Zhirou in shock.

When Cheng's mother saw this, she was also in disbelief. She was speechless for a moment and was filled with shock.

In addition, there is unspeakable fear.

After Cheng Fenghao was taken away by Jiang family bodyguards, he came out looking like a man in his seventies.

She had no idea what happened in between.

Mother Cheng felt a sense of broken powerlessness. She slumped on the sofa, staring blankly ahead, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

Father Cheng and Cheng Zhirou were also stunned. What kind of inhuman torture did Cheng Fenghao suffer in the Jiang family that accelerated his aging speed? !

Cheng Shiyan glanced at the anxious Cheng Wei with fear and trepidation, "Sister, do you want to see it?"

Cheng Wei sighed helplessly, "No, I just checked the news."

She hesitated for a while, and said to Cheng's mother and others: "Now that things have come to this, let's not look for Cheng Fenghao. What if he has a virus or something..."

Before she finished her words, Cheng's mother raised her eyes in confusion, "Virus?"

Cheng Wei tried to find an excuse, "Cheng Fenghao aged so quickly. In addition to mental stress, he was probably injected with unknown drugs. What if this thing gets close to us and infects us?!"

At this point, Cheng's mother, who was in a state of violent emotional fluctuations and wanted to go find Cheng Fenghao, gradually calmed down, "Xiao Wei, you make sense."

Father Cheng had mixed feelings. He lowered his head and placed his hands on his forehead. "If this matter is exposed, the share price of Cheng Group will drop significantly again."

Cheng Wei was completely helpless. "Now netizens all know that Cheng Fenghao wanted to get rid of Xiaoye, and many people's lives have been lost on his hands."

The Cheng family sat in the house, with negative public opinion overwhelming on the Internet, but they didn't have any measures to solve it!

The company assistant rushed in, "Director Cheng, it's urgent."

Father Cheng said irritably, "Just tell me the problem directly, don't hesitate. And don't make such a fuss in the future."

I'm already upset enough, and the people around me make me feel upset every time. It's really speechless.

The assistant was so scared that he was sweating profusely. He had been an assistant to Cheng's father for so many years.

What kind of storms have you not seen?!

If the matter wasn't particularly serious, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly.

It's not that he has a bad mentality, but the crisis is just too big!!

"Director Cheng, our major clients, after learning that Cheng Fenghao was a murderer, all felt that we were unreliable, so they did not do any preparation and unilaterally cancelled their cooperation with us."

"What did you say?! Unilaterally canceling the cooperation?!" Father Cheng gritted his teeth, "We signed a relevant agreement for the cooperation. If they unilaterally cancel the cooperation, they will have to pay us a lot of liquidated damages. How could they be willing to pay the liquidated damages?!"

"Yes, yes. They would rather pay several times the penalty than continue to cooperate with our group."

The assistant replied tremblingly: "They are worried that they will be implicated by us, so..."

The assistant didn't say the rest of the words, but he knew what it meant.

Hearing this, Cheng's father flew into a rage, "This is outrageous! Didn't we kick Cheng Fenghao out of the house a long time ago?!"

"We have also made it clear to netizens on social media that Cheng Fenghao's future has nothing to do with us!"

"What's wrong with those netizens! What does Cheng Fenghao's crime and murder have to do with us?!"

"The stock price is falling like crazy again, and a major customer is unilaterally canceling cooperation?! Do these people have any sense of reason?!"

Father Cheng was very angry.

Cheng's mother and others were also helpless and could only watch Cheng's father grow helpless and furious.

When the assistant heard this, his voice trembled violently, "Director Cheng, there is nothing we can do. Cheng Fenghao has killed too many people. He is a heinous murderer."

"This criminal case itself involved at least dozens of families of the deceased, and it caused a big stir."

"Moreover, the most important thing is that Cheng Fenghao's goal from the beginning to the end was the young master. Those who died were innocent people who died in the process of implementing Cheng Fenghao's plan."

"Another very important point is that the reason why Cheng Fenghao was able to successfully implement these plans was because he used the Cheng family's connections. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to implement these plans alone."

After saying this, the assistant suddenly realized that he had said too much.

As expected, Mr. Cheng, Mrs. Cheng and others became eerily quiet because of the assistant's last words.

If Cheng Fenghao had not relied on the Cheng family's connections, he would not have had the opportunity to harm Xiaoye.

It was equivalent to that Cheng Fenghao was the one holding the knife, and they were the real executioners who handed Cheng Fenghao the sharp knife and gave Cheng Fenghao many opportunities to hurt Xiaoye! !

After understanding the logic behind this, the Cheng family fell into extreme pain of regret and self-blame.

The assistant didn't dare to speak anymore; he just stood there with a stiff expression.

-

Six o'clock the next morning.

cemetery.

Cheng Ye came to the tombstone with the name Meng Ziming engraved on it.

Jiang Mian was by his side. Cheng Ye said that Meng Ziming was the only good brother he had when he was in the orphanage.

But it was because Cheng Fenghao designed the accidental fire in the orphanage that Meng Ziming died in the fire.

Cheng Ye was squatting in front of the tombstone, exuding an extremely depressing aura.

Although many years have passed, Cheng Ye still remembers what Meng Ziming looked like.

When Cheng Ye was bullied by other children in the orphanage, Meng Ziming would stand by Cheng Ye unreservedly and help Cheng Ye defend against other people's pranks.

When Cheng Ye's food was taken away by someone, Meng Ziming would take the initiative to share his food with Cheng Ye. The two of them talked about everything. They also talked about their beautiful imaginations for the future and helping each other in the future when they entered society...

Cheng Ye slowly collected his thoughts. He and Meng Ziming had too many precious memories. They had agreed to start a business together in the future, but this agreement has become a thing of the past forever.

The only thing he could do was to help Meng Ziming get revenge.

Now that Cheng Fenghao is in prison, the families of the deceased are extremely resentful towards Cheng Fenghao. They all agree that Cheng Fenghao must be sentenced to death and must be executed immediately.

At the same time, the negative impact of this criminal case is quite wide-ranging, and netizens are monitoring the latest developments of the case.

Therefore, it can be said that Cheng Fenghao being sentenced to death or executed immediately is an inevitable outcome.

The revenge was taken, but the dead cannot be brought back to life.

There was darkness in Cheng Ye's eyes. Today was the anniversary of Meng Ziming's death. He did not feel the joy after revenge, but instead felt a heavy sense of depression.

If only he could be reborn a few years earlier, he could go back to the night before the orphanage fire and prevent the tragedy from happening.

There's just no if.

Cheng Ye tried his best to calm the turbulent emotions in his heart.

Jiang Mian remained quiet and did not disturb Cheng Ye.

The surrounding environment is cool and a bit cold.

Cheng Ye didn't know how long he had been squatting, and then he slowly stood up. He glanced sideways and said, "Let's go."

"Yeah." Jiang Mian nodded obediently and hugged his arm affectionately.

"Cheng Ye?"

Suddenly, a strange male voice sounded.

Cheng Ye was slightly startled, raised his head and looked forward, seeing a tall man's figure in the distance.

It is six o'clock in the morning. The sky is just getting light and there is still a lot of fog in the air. Cheng Ye's vision is not very clear.

Until the man in front walked in, Cheng Ye was suddenly stunned. The man's face had lost its former youthfulness and had become more hard and angular.

Cheng Ye quickly recognized the identity of the man in front of him. He felt incredible, "Meng Ziming?!"

Jiang Mian looked at Cheng Ye in confusion, then glanced at the man who looked like Meng Ziming in confusion, then turned his head to look at Meng Ziming's tombstone.

uh-huh?

Is this the real Meng Ziming, or a fake?

Jiang Mian seemed to be thinking about something.

Cheng Ye looked up and down several times, frowned slightly, walked over and swung his fist to hit the man's shoulder.

"You are so good, Meng Ziming. You are not dead and you even put a tombstone here. You are just trying to trick me into crying, right?!"

Cheng Ye was not polite at all and punched the man on the shoulder a few more times.

Meng Ziming rubbed his shoulder, which had been hit several times by Cheng Ye's fist, in pain, "It was a misunderstanding, it was a misunderstanding, please listen to my explanation."

Cheng Ye retracted his fist. Not only was his former brother not dead, but he appeared in front of him alive and well. His gloomy mood suddenly brightened up.

Noticing the obvious burn scars on Meng Ziming's face, Cheng Ye looked complicated, "Tell me, what happened?"

Meng Ziming first called Jiang Mian "sister-in-law" as a greeting, and then looked at Cheng Ye again.

"I was severely burned in the fire and fell into a coma."

Having said that, Meng Ziming pointed to his burned face and rolled up his sleeves to expose his arms.

The scar on the arm is clearly visible, and it looks so shocking.

Cheng Ye could imagine how painful it must have been for Meng Ziming when he was burned by the fire.

He couldn't help but ask: "What happened next? You passed out, what's with the tombstone here?"

Hearing this, Meng Ziming scratched his head. "At that time, more than a dozen orphans in our orphanage, including me, were rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. There was a middle-aged couple who caught a cold and were queuing up to pay the fees."

"They saw me and thought I looked a bit like their child who had just died, so they paid attention to me."

"The orphanage doesn't have that much funding. Besides, we orphans have no parents, no relatives or friends. Even if we are sent to the hospital, we will just be admitted to the most ordinary ward."

"I suffered severe burns and the hospital issued me a critical illness notice."

Meng Ziming suddenly felt very emotional. "I was about to be given up on treatment. At this time, it was the middle-aged couple who took the initiative to propose to send me to a foreign hospital for treatment. They covered all the medical and living expenses."

"The director didn't believe them at first and was skeptical. After all, I had no relatives or friends with them, and I was still in a coma, with my life or death in danger. I also faced high surgery costs."

"To put it bluntly, I'm just a burden." Meng Ziming's eyes turned red, "But they insisted on saving me. To show their sincerity, they signed an adoption agreement with the dean as quickly as possible."

"Because they obtained the adoption rights, they were able to successfully take me to a foreign hospital for treatment and recuperation."

"But my injuries were so severe that even though my life was saved temporarily, I became a vegetable and could not move."

“You could be in danger of losing your life again in the next few years.”

"If it weren't for my adoptive parents who took care of me every day and did their best to provide me with the best medical resources, I wouldn't have been completely out of danger and eventually woke up slowly."

"I just woke up last month." Meng Ziming said, "In the following month, I spent a lot of time and energy asking someone to go to China to learn about your experiences and movements over the years."

"It took me five days to stand and walk freely. Before that I could only lie in bed, unable to move my legs and do nothing."

Meng Ziming's eyes were filled with tears. "Before I asked someone to go to China, I thought you were gone. Fortunately, God is merciful. I received the good news that your career in China is flourishing."

He cried with joy, "As for the tombstone, the director didn't have much hope for me to go abroad for treatment, so when he built tombstones for other orphans, he also built mine."

"Besides, I have been in a vegetative state for the past few years, and I really didn't bring back any good news for the dean. My parents and the dean have added each other's contact information."

"The dean didn't receive any good news, and felt that there was no special meaning in telling you about the adoption. I was afraid that I would give you hope and then make you despair, so I simply didn't tell you."

Cheng Ye: “…?”

Dog Dean.

Forget it, as long as people are safe.

Cheng Ye didn't plan to argue with the dean about this matter.

It is understandable that the dean did this.

After all, the probability of waking up again after becoming a vegetative state is really too low.

If Cheng Ye knew that Meng Ziming had become a vegetable, he would definitely feel very uncomfortable.

He didn't see Meng Ziming's adoptive parents, so he asked, "Where are your parents?"
