Futile Devices Scans

After Wang Cheng left the study, his family immediately surrounded him with questions. Because his father didn’t yet know about his relationship with Chu Yifeng, he did not reveal the whole conversation, merely reassuring his parents that the patriarch had not made things difficult for him. The outcome was already far more favorable than Wang…

The old master’s sudden summons made everyone realize the matter wasn’t over. The eldest son’s family, who had been shocked by his earlier decision, exchanged glances and saw the same gloating satisfaction in one another’s eyes. Of course the patriarch wouldn’t favor one side so blatantly. Besides, with Wang Cheng thrown out of the Zhou…

“Grandfather, there’s actually something else.” Zheng Jingen, who had set this confrontation in motion, stepped forward again just as the oppressive silence reached its peak. Seeing his calm expression, Zheng Ru and her husband felt a fresh wave of unease. They sensed that whatever he said next would also concern their son. Zheng Ru suddenly…

Compared with the chaos in the Yu family, Wang Cheng was enjoying himself. After leaving Capital University, he called Wang Ziyu from time to time to check how things were going. He worried that she might still like Gu Li and begin seeing him again. Whatever Gu Li’s intentions, Wang Cheng didn’t want it to…

Peng Yang knocked and entered Wang Ning’an’s office. After taking the documents his boss had signed, he hesitated, clearly wanting to say something. Wang Ning’an noticed and told him to speak. “Vice President, Secretary Chen just told me that President Yu’s assistant took all the files she was bringing to you. Should I go get…

Wang Cheng had revealed in front of several onlookers that Wu Jia, from the Chinese department, was Gu Li’s biological sister. The news was impossible to contain and quickly spread across campus, causing Gu Li considerable trouble. Most students had heard of him, since he was one of the university’s four campus heartthrobs. As Wang…

People kept coming and going from the dormitory, until at last only Gu Li’s two closest roommates remained. They were discussing Gu Li and Wang Ziyu, with one asking how he had fought off the robbers the previous night. Their conversation was lively when another student suddenly appeared at the door. “Gu Li, my roommate…

“What’s this business about the post on the forum? Wasn’t your outing with Gu Li arranged at the last minute? How did anyone even find out? Don’t tell me Gu Li leaked it deliberately.” The rumor was a large part of why Wang Cheng had rushed over so quickly. Chu Yifeng had received a call…

Wang Cheng could not wait until the next day. That very afternoon, with Chu Yifeng accompanying him, he stormed straight over to the university. He had told neither Wang Ziyu nor her roommates that he was coming. After visiting so many times, he knew the girls were preparing for exams. Students passing him whispered among…

Chu Yifeng noticed the change in Wang Cheng’s expression. He had been in a good mood earlier, but by the time he finished the call, he looked furious. “Did something happen to your sister?” Thinking about everything Qian Baobao had just told him, Wang Cheng felt anger rising in his chest. “What could happen to…

As expected, Wang Cheng made the newspaper headlines again the next morning. The accompanying photograph showed him standing outside the Gu residence with the other man in his romantic scandal, while a third man had come out to welcome them. The man wore casual clothes. He was tall and straight-backed, handsome, with an air of…

The next day, as expected, newspapers carried the story of Zhao Chenlin’s disturbance at Yazhi. One photograph showed him making a spectacle of himself at the company entrance. Most readers could scarcely believe a grandson of the Zhou family would behave so disgracefully. Zhou Lin was furious enough to tear the paper in half. She…

What was Wang Cheng doing at the time? He was on his way to the airport to pick up Chu Yifeng when he received a call from Wang Ning’an. His older brother had also heard about the online scandal. He rarely went online himself; it was He Ping who had told him. He Ping spent…

At some point, a set of photographs identical to those sent to Zhou Shichang appeared online. Wang Cheng was something of an internet celebrity. Although his earlier moment in the spotlight had passed, his status still drew plenty of interest. Someone recognized him almost immediately. Whoever uploaded the pictures also hired a large army of…

Zhou Lin and Zhao Jiansheng were discussing something in their office when the door suddenly swung open and someone walked in, giving the couple a fright. What they were talking about was hardly aboveboard. If anyone overheard and reported it to her father, they would be in serious trouble. “You little brat! Don’t you know…

Zheng Jingen was the one who met Wang Cheng at the airport. Very few people knew he had returned to China, and the brothers agreed not to tell their parents just yet. Zheng Jingen had found out that Zhou Shichang would not be at the office today. Whether it was coincidence or deliberate, Wang Cheng…

Wang Cheng did not concern himself with what Mary decided in the end. After leaving Duke Austen’s estate, he and Chu Yifeng took the duke’s private plane back to Italy. Emily wanted to remain in Britain for a couple more days to visit old friends she had not seen in years. Wang Cheng would not…

There’s a saying in China that a daughter who marries is like water poured out of the house, but it doesn’t apply to every country or family. Mary was Duke Austen’s only daughter, and he had doted on her since childhood. Although she was now married, he could not bear to see her move far…

The truth behind a “fairy tale” was often cruel. And the fairy tale did not last long. Halfway through the evening, Emily spotted another man and promptly abandoned Austen to go to him. Wang Cheng witnessed the scene from behind and instinctively looked toward Duke Austen. To his surprise, the duke showed not the slightest…

When Wang Cheng and Chu Yifeng returned to the residence, everyone gathered around them, including Sophie. Emily had told the girl that Wang Cheng was missing. Like Chu Yifeng, Sophie immediately suspected Johanna. She called her, but the line was constantly busy, so she went straight to Johanna’s villa. The sight awaiting her was shocking.…
