Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle Chapter 995 - Kowtow and Apologize

Chapter 995: Kowtow and Apologize

According to Second Uncle, Dongfang Chu had only seen him a few times before. This was strange then. And when this matter was linked with the previous incident of someone escaping the control of the trash fish and awakening instantly, she had reason to suspect that Dongfang Chu might remember the Third Master. Now, this plot where everyone thought that the person Dongfang Chu liked was Second Uncle was just the author’s will in this book.

Yes, that playboy Jun s.h.i.+yan was the person she really liked. When she thought of this, her heart could not help but ache.

Dongfang Meng had come this time to burn some of her older sister’s remaining belongings. They were all books she had liked. After her sister pa.s.sed away, everything that belonged to her had been burned according to her dying wish. Unexpectedly, they had left out the last box.

It wasn’t a large wooden box. She found it when she was organizing things yesterday, so she brought it over. Now, she suddenly felt that her sister’s soul in heaven must have guided her to meet her enemy.

Ling Sheng also saw the small wooden box placed beside her feet. She pointed at the wooden box. “It might be in there! Evidence like love letters, mails, diaries, and so on.”

The wooden box wasn’t big, only the size of something that could be carried in one’s arms. It was also locked. In her memory, she vaguely remembered her gaze sweeping across this box in the room, which had even been locked. It should be quite important to Dongfang Chu.

“Sheng Sheng, don’t mess around,” Yan Yuanfei called out to her to come back. “Don’t be rude to the Second Miss.”

Dongfang Meng said, “Little girl, don’t talk nonsense. If my sister had a secret item, how could I not know?”

Ling Sheng said, “Who knows? Perhaps your sister’s secret is right in there. You guys framed and misunderstood my Second Uncle for so long that I want to seek justice for him. You don’t dare to open it and have a look, right?”

Dongfang Meng knew that she was trying to provoke her, but she really did fall for it. She took a look at the photo of her sister on the tombstone. “Little girl, you’re framing my sister without any evidence. If I can’t find what you said, both you and Yan Yuanfei will kowtow and apologize to my sister. You’ll kneel in front of her for two days and two nights. Do you dare?”

“I’m the one making a bet with you. What does this have to do with my Second Uncle? It’s between ourselves. Don’t drag innocent people into this. If the one Ms. Dongfang likes isn’t my Second Uncle and didn’t die because of him but someone else, your Dongfang Family has to apologize to my Second Uncle and clear his name. Second Miss, do you dare?”

“Even so, Yan Yuanfei will have to kowtow and apologize to my sister.” Dongfang Meng had not expected her to be so unreasonable and confident. If her sister had not liked Yan Yuanfei, as her younger sister, how could she not have noticed at all?

Yan Yuanfei this motherf*cker! He still wants to whitewash himself at this point in time? Does he think her sister was a stain on his life journey? He is using the little girl from Huo Ci’s family to provoke her!

Anything could be up for discussion except for this matter. She wanted him to be bothered by guilt for the rest of his life. He could forget about escaping forever!

“Sheng Sheng, stop it.” Yan Yuanfei spoke up and looked at Dongfang Meng apologetically. “Second Miss, she’s just a child. Don’t stoop to her level.”

What was wrong with Sheng Sheng? From the time she had met him, she kept saying all these strange things.

As far as he knew, Dongfang Chu had indeed not liked any other man before. If she had, even if he had not known, how could Ruoshui not have known?

“Second Uncle, you don’t have to get involved. You can’t possibly live your whole life with the accusation of being a heartless rat and a murderer!” Ling Sheng was angry.

The eldest daughter of the Dongfang Family had obviously fallen in love with someone else first. However, she just had to act like a victim, making the whole world think that Second Uncle had betrayed and let her down.

Dongfang Meng’s lips curled up into a cold smile. A child? Had he seen a child this grown up before? Since she had already said that, she should be responsible for her words.

Ling Sheng turned around and knelt down directly in front of Dongfang Chu’s grave. “Auntie Dongfang, please be our witness!”

Dongfang Meng looked at the box in front of her. More than 10 years had already pa.s.sed since this was left at home, so the key definitely couldn’t be found anymore. Upon seeing the girl carry a stone over, she hurriedly stopped her. “What are you thinking of doing?”

Ling Sheng held a stone and stared at the lock. “Why? Second Miss, you still have the key? Why didn’t you say so earlier? You made me go pick up a stone.”

Dongfang Meng frowned and objected. “I don’t have a key. This is my older sister’s belonging. You’re not allowed to damage it.”

Ling Sheng knew that they had a close relations.h.i.+p. “Then, Second Miss, did you bring the box over for Eldest Miss to take a look? Or to ask her for the key?”

If she had guessed correctly, this box had been brought over to be burned. There was even a can of gasoline beside it.

Dongfang Meng looked at her. “Give it to me.”

She also wanted to know exactly what was in the things her sister had left behind, which she had only found after more than 10 years. Had her sister arranged for this because she wanted her to see the items inside? She had coincidentally brought the box over and had even b.u.mped into Yan Yuanfei.

Ling Sheng pa.s.sed the stone to her. She watched her land a forceful knock and the lock opened with a snap. The strength and angle were controlled perfectly, so only the lock was broken. Even the complex and beautiful engraving on it was not damaged at all.

When the box was opened, they saw books inside. There were books of poems. Imitating the cover design of ancient books, there was an elegant regular script font in small characters. When it was flipped open, there were actually handwritten poems with the insights and comments of the person who had written them.

After several decades had pa.s.sed, Dongfang Meng’s eyes welled up with tears when she saw her sister’s things again. Her eyes reddened as she reached out to stroke the collection of handwritten poems her sister had personally copied. It was as though she was looking at a treasure. There was nostalgia, a sense of intimacy, and sadness.

Ling Sheng took out the items one by one and put them away neatly. She did not find that locked diary though. She couldn’t believe it and searched through the whole box in disbelief.

“What else do you want to say?” Dongfang Meng looked at her. It was all poetry anthologies, and there was no love letter as she had said. “Put the box down and apologize to my sister.”

“She must have hidden those personal things even deeper. Since there’s nothing here, it must be somewhere else.” Ling Sheng still did not want to admit defeat. There had to be a diary. She could be certain of it now.

Otherwise, why had she seen that scene of her writing in the diary?!

“Do you mean that you don’t want to give up, admit your mistake, and are unrepentant? Do you want to search my house too?” Dongfang Meng looked at her in amus.e.m.e.nt.

“Perhaps your Dongfang Family has already seen it and found out about the truth. For the sake of your own face, you people covered up the mistake and made the best of the situation!” Ling Sheng had a feeling that this definitely wasn’t the case, but the facts before her spoke louder than words.

“Are you harping on this matter unreasonably and refusing to admit your mistake?” Dongfang Meng’s eyes darkened abruptly as she got up to get the box.

However, Ling Sheng wasn’t holding it firmly. Her hand slipped, and the box fell to the ground with a thud. Then, a small notebook suddenly fell out of a slot between the layers.
