Chapter 415: Drunk
Chapter 415: Drunkenness
A few days ago, when Cheng Jiuhe was not at home, Political Commissioner Zhong brought over a collection owned by Long Zhenghui. Coincidentally, Jiuhe came back just at that time.
After asking about the origin of the collection and finding out that the ungrateful woman Ye Qing had brought big trouble to Mengyu, Cheng Jiuhe was furious and threw another punch at Gu Dongxing:
"How could you harm my sister like this?"
Seeing Gu Dongxing’s eyes swelling up like a panda, Mengyu felt a bit of heartache.
She pulled Cheng Jiuhe back: "Brother, it really wasn’t his fault this time."
But Cheng Jiuhe pointed at Gu Dongxing: "Don’t cover for him. If he hadn’t brought Ye Qing, the white-eyed wolf, none of this would have happened."
Gu Dongxing gave a bitter smile. With such a sister-protective demon around, his life was going to be tough.
Mengyu could only change the subject: "Brother, I have something very important to tell you."
Cheng Jiuhe was immediately intrigued: "What is it?"
Mengyu took out the Five Elements Fan, waved it a few times behind her, and set up an Array between her, Cheng Jiuhe, and Gu Dongxing, then said, "Actually, you are my real brother."
Cheng Jiuhe’s face instantly burst into a silly smile: "I was always your real brother."
Mengyu went straight to the point: "My father is Nan Xiao!" She looked straight at Cheng Jiuhe as she spoke.
"What Nan Xiao? Which Nan Xiao?" Cheng Jiuhe still hadn’t caught on.
"Brother, my father is your grandfather’s eldest son, Nan Xiao!" Mengyu raised her voice. Since she had set up an Array, she wasn’t worried about being overheard.
Cheng Jiuhe finally got it and was shocked: "What? You’re saying your father is my uncle? Are you sure?"
Cheng Jiuhe never expected that the sister he acknowledged was actually his own cousin!
Although he had felt a sense of kinship when they first met, learning the truth still shocked Cheng Jiuhe.
He suddenly burst into laughter and lifted Mengyu up, causing her to yell, "Put me down, brother, put me down!"
Gu Dongxing kept a straight face: He had never even played the "lift-up-high" game with Mengyu. And now Cheng Jiuhe was treating his little one like a child playing lift-up-high.
Even if his little one liked to be lifted high, it should be him doing it.
Cheng Jiuhe seemed not to notice Gu Dongxing’s displeasure, grabbing both Mengyu and Gu Dongxing’s hands: "Let’s go have a drink to celebrate!"
That evening, both Cheng Jiuhe and Mengyu ended up drunk.
Over the years, Cheng Jiuhe had always felt lonely at home. After his grandfather passed away, all his family members became strangers to him.
Even his father had changed to a stepfather.
He felt that apart from Gu Dongxing, his friend, he had no family left.
But now, he had gained another family member, a real blood-related family member.
He repeatedly told Mengyu: "Sister, from now on, you can come to me for anything."
Mengyu was also drunk, shaking her head: "Brother, you speak such strange words. Didn’t I always come to you for anything before?"
"Sister, you’re right. But before, our relationship was acknowledged as brother and sister by name, but now, it’s by blood."
Mengyu shook her head again: "Brother, you’re wrong again. Before, we were also blood-related cousins, we just didn’t know."
Cheng Jiuhe quickly nodded: "Sister is right, we’ve been blood-related cousins since the day we were born, we just didn’t know. In the future—I’m going to tell everyone in the world, you are my sister!"
