The servant of the Chen family returned home in a bad mood and repeated the words "ungrateful and treacherous" word for word.

After hearing this, Chen Jikang returned to his study with a gloomy face.

As a father, he naturally could not remain indifferent when his daughter was in trouble.

His two daughters ran away last night, and the people he sent out searched for them all night. But when they were found in the morning, both daughters were innocent.

This incident was a big blow to him.

If this were to get out, Baron Fuguo would lose face.

Chen Jikang now hopes that Cen Yuan will come back to discuss this matter, but Cen Yuan tells the Chen family "not to worry about it".

At this moment, he was extremely annoyed.

He even thought that if Cen Yuan had sent his men to look for someone last night, his two daughters would definitely not have been in trouble.

On the other side, after hearing the words "ungrateful and treacherous", Yao immediately became obedient and stopped making trouble.

She suddenly remembered that this so-called adopted son was already very old when he came to their home, and wanted to leave as soon as he woke up, and it was only after her husband repeatedly persuaded him to stay that he agreed to stay.

Even if he stayed, he would be away from home for three days or more.

Later on, because of the eldest daughter, the adopted son rarely showed up.

When she occasionally showed up, she would go into the study with her husband to discuss important matters. Every time they finished discussing, the Chen family would receive a large sum of money.

Adoptive sons, it's hard to say who is raising whom. Yao Shi only realized this belatedly.

She had long regarded her adopted son as a family member. The adopted son could make money, and the Luo family had a great background and deep foundation.

She intended to marry her fourth daughter Chen Mengran to Cen Yuan.

A while ago, when her husband said that her fourth daughter would most likely only be a concubine, she even made a scene, saying how could the daughter she had raised with so much effort be a concubine?

In this situation, it’s actually not impossible for me to be a concubine.

Today, Yao originally wanted to play the family card and let her adopted son take her poor daughter as a concubine.

From now on, as long as her adopted son is willing to treat her daughter well, she won't care whether she is a concubine or not.

Who knew... things would develop to this point.

The adopted son's cruel words really hurt her heart.

Yao had always treated her adopted son wholeheartedly, especially when he was seriously injured, she even made sugar-water eggs for him herself.

Could such a friendship be written off?

Yao went to her daughter's room in a daze, still thinking about how to tell her daughter.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed the door open, he screamed in fear, "Someone! Someone! Someone come quickly!"

All the maids and servants rushed over in a hurry.

But in the middle of the room, there was a person hanging upright.

Everyone hurriedly put the person down, only to find out that it was Chen Mengjiao, the eldest daughter of the Chen family.

I think she was hung up for just a moment. When she was let down, Chen Mengjiao woke up with a cough and cried out of breath, "Let me die! Let me die! Let me die!"

While the maids were busy here, they found that the fourth lady, Chen Mengran, was lying on the couch and spitting blood.

This is suicide by taking pills! Everyone was at a loss and didn't know what to do first.

Yao cried bitterly, "What a sin! What a sin! Go get a doctor!"

She looked at Chen Mengjiao who was coughing, and then at Chen Mengran whose mouth was covered with blood. She was suddenly filled with grief. "Why are you doing this? Why are you doing this? Don't bother thinking about that heartless guy! He won't come at all, and he doesn't care about your life or death at all."

Chen Mengjiao asked in a faint voice, "Mother, Brother Yuan still doesn't want to come back?"

Yao hugged her daughter and said, "Mengjiao, you must not do anything stupid again. Even if you die, that boy will not even look at you."

Chen Mengjiao lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.

Chen Mengran also woke up slowly at this time. When she saw her mother, she burst into tears, "Mom, mother, my daughter doesn't want to die... My daughter doesn't want to die..."

When Yao saw her daughter like this, she knew what was going on. She asked the maids and servants to leave, and then asked, "Do you think that if you do this and let that boy see it, he will change his mind?"

Chen Mengran buried her face in her palms, and when she raised her head again, she yelled at Chen Mengjiao, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! You ruined me! You ruined me! It was all your idea!"

If she hadn't listened to her sister's bad advice, she wouldn't have ended up in such a situation.

The boat stopped at the Nan'an ferry last night and set off for Suzhou the next morning. Chen Mengjiao told her, "We can't just go to Suzhou like this. If we go, we may never see Brother Yuan again in this life."

Chen Mengran asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Yes." Chen Mengjiao is indeed a woman who dares to leave her husband's house. She is braver than others and has more ideas than others. "Let's run while the guys are loading the goods."

The two of them ran away secretly.

Unexpectedly, after running away, Chen Mengjiao had a new plan.

She said, "Mengran, if we want to keep Brother Yuan in our hands, we have to risk our lives."

Chen Mengran asked, "How do you die? And how do you live?"

Chen Mengjiao said, "If the two of us girls ran away secretly, our father would definitely ask Brother Yuan to find us. Whether he came in person or his men came, as long as they saw that we were being bullied, they would definitely rescue us and send us to Brother Yuan.

Chen Mengran understood immediately, "You want to find someone to put on a show? Let big brother know that we suffered for him, he won't abandon us."

Chen Mengjiao frowned and said, "That's what I mean. Brother Yuan is about to marry the daughter of the Marquis's family. If we don't think of a solution, it will be too late."

Chen Mengran asked, "Where can we find someone to perform with us?"

Chen Mengjiao took out the banknotes and jade pendants from her body and shook them, "Money makes the world go round."

Sure enough, the two men encountered a group of refugees running around near the ferry.

Chen Mengjiao negotiated a price with the other party and paid half of the money first.

Who would have thought that that night, instead of waiting for Cen Yuan's men to come, they waited for that group of refugees to betray their loyalty and be tempted by her beauty.

That group of refugees actually attacked the two weak women who gave them money.

No matter how hard the two begged or how much they said nice things, they were always treated brutally.

Afterwards, the refugees robbed them of their silver and valuables and fled away.

Chen Mengran deeply regretted listening to her sister. She really wanted to die now. "It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"

Chen Mengjiao was furious when she heard this, "If you hadn't been so coquettish, those people wouldn't have set their sights on us at all!"

Chen Mengran was not going to stand for it. "Who is flirting? Who came up with this bad idea? If it weren't for you, a woman, flirting in front of men and..."

Chen Mengjiao rushed over and beat the girl wildly, "I was just planning a scene!"

Chen Churan was not to be outdone, she grabbed her sister's hair and pulled it hard, "You idiot, you designed us in."

At this time, Chen Jikang pushed the door open suddenly.

The two sisters who were fighting fiercely in the room stopped in shock, and Yao also looked panicked.

Chen Jikang said coldly: "So, you asked for this!"
