Chapter 825: Chapter 825: Teach Them a Lesson
From Xiang Yazhi’s situation, to Shen Jing’s arrival, Father Xiang, who already had high blood pressure, suffered a sudden death due to the enormous shock.
During the process of being taken to the hospital, his heartbeat had already stopped before reaching there.
"Dad..."
Xiang Yazhi’s sorrowful cries rang out, and Mrs. Xiang fainted from the shock.
By the time they arrived at the hospital, Father Xiang no longer required resuscitation, whereas Mrs. Xiang was sent to the emergency room.
Xiang Yazhi sat outside the emergency room, unable to even cry, sitting there in a daze, completely devoid of the earlier prestige she had as Mrs. Lian.

"You said Xiang Zhengyi was hospitalized?"
Ever since receiving the results, Lian He had been calm for a few days before starting to handle company matters. Now in a calm state, Lian He felt that these matters weren’t so simple.
From divorcing Xiang Yazhi to uncovering Lian Qingqing’s background, and now to Lian Qingyang’s origins, Lian He felt as if there was some unseen force silently steering all this. Although he seemed disconnected on the surface, in secret, he was quietly investigating Xiang Yazhi.
Lian Qingqing and Lian Qingyang might not be his, so who are their siblings’ real parents?
This is something Lian He absolutely needed to find out.
Lian Tong, fearing too many changes at home, stayed in Sea City along with Old Sir Lian and Lian He, adding a touch of liveliness to the household.
Gu Chun went out early and returned late every day, seemingly unknown to all what he was doing.
Lian He’s people were keeping an eye on Xiang Yazhi, and the moment something happened to her, they were instantly aware.
Not long after, news of Xiang Zhengyi’s death arrived and Mrs. Xiang’s hospitalization. Along with this string of bad news, Lian He’s attention turned to Shen Jing.
Ever since Shen Jing returned to the Xiang Family, a series of misfortunes have struck them; if he said this had nothing to do with Shen Jing, Lian He would never believe it.
He decided to start investigating Shen Jing.
While Lian He’s people were checking into Shen Jing, they discovered Gu Chun was also investigating.
Gu Chun was very composed, not at all startled by Lian He’s discovery, simply stating there was some connection with Shen Jing, which is why Gu Chun has been investigating this, and as for Lian He finding out, it was deliberately exposed by Gu Chun.
In Sea City, though Lian He usually stayed out of the spotlight, his resources were rather powerful, otherwise, the Lian Group wouldn’t have been thriving as it is.
Gu Chun decided to team up with Lian He, as the power of two would certainly be more than just a simple addition of one’s capabilities.

In Jing City, Lian Qingyang had been distracted for several days, and Tang Yue was worried that Lian Qingyang might not take kindly to discovering his background, so every few days she would invite him over for a meal, providing subtle comfort and either talking about happy things or discussing career matters.
Initially, Lian Qingyang didn’t show much, but after a few days he began to suspect that Tang Yue also knew about his origins, and he was touched by her acceptance and more moved by her patient guidance.
"Lian Qingyang, isn’t it just a blood connection? Didn’t you treat Sister Xiao Yue like a real sister when you didn’t know about this?"
In the dark night, Lian Qingyang secretly encouraged himself, he couldn’t go on being downcast. Without the Lian Family’s backing, he could still earn money through his efforts.
Didn’t he have this same thought at the beginning when he founded Xincheng Computer?
After coming to terms, his eyes sparkled with newfound determination, firmly believing Xincheng Computer had a promising future, and he could gradually repay part of it to the Lian Family as he made more money.
He’d never forget the Lian Family’s upbringing kindness, and even for the small villa he’s living in now, he decided not to stay there any longer.
The next day, Lian Qingyang simply packed some clothes and moved to stay at the company, which was the house on Southwest Road. The third floor was originally where he stayed when working overtime, and from now on, it would be his permanent place of residence.
Leaving the villa where he’d lived for several years, Lian Qingyang felt a small sense of loss and reluctance, but given his awkward status, even though his grandfather and father didn’t yet know of his origins, he felt unsettled living there.
In June, the scorching sun seemed intent on scorching a layer of skin off people, even standing under tree shade, the heat was still palpable.
"Be careful, my dear." Si Yu supported Tang Yue as they took a leisurely walk in the yard. As the sunset faded and night descended, the dark sky twinkled with stars, and the bright moon hung in the sky, like a bright lamp.
The moonlight stretched Si Yu and Tang Yue’s shadows long, though Tang Yue was six months pregnant, she looked as if she was about to give birth, her belly round and protruding like she’d stuffed a basketball inside.
"With you supporting me, how could I worry about falling?" Tang Yue said playfully, glancing sideways at his worried face. Clearly, she was the one pregnant, but Si Yu was more anxious than she was. Whenever the company wasn’t particularly busy, he would return home in the evening to accompany her on walks and massage her feet at night. Whenever she woke up from leg cramps, Si Yu felt more pain than she did, patiently massaging her legs.
Often, she saw care in his eyes, and even though she was the one supposed to be having a tough time, all she felt was love and happiness.
They say to know if a man truly loves you, just have a baby.
At this moment, Tang Yue clearly felt it. With one hand supporting her belly and Si Yu carefully supporting her with the other, she suddenly exclaimed.
"Are they kicking you again?" Si Yu stopped nervously, sternly saying, "You two better behave, or else I’ll smack you."
"Pfft~"
Si Yu had said this dozens of times, yet every time Tang Yue watched him say it with a straight face, she couldn’t help but laugh.
"They aren’t even born yet, and you want to hit them, that’s not being a good dad." Tang Yue replied earnestly.
"Well, they trouble you." Si Yu’s love for the two children was evident in the hardships Tang Yue endured during pregnancy, slowly wearing away his patience.
Though Tang Yue didn’t have morning sickness, carrying twins was inherently more challenging; often she woke up at night with leg cramps, and with a big belly, everything was inconvenient, even when the babies kicked, it hurt.
"You better not hit the kids when the time comes." Tang Yue glared at him, saying, "By the way, Xiao Yang hasn’t been here for a while. I heard the computer factory is doing well. He’s been more attentive to it recently, and a few days ago, he even replaced my computer, said it’s the latest, and the graphics software has improved too."
"Aside from making games, Xiao Yang is constantly crafting graphic software for me. It’s really thoughtful of him, he’s so earnest," Tang Yue endlessly praised Lian Qingyang. Games were his passion; founding the computer factory was partly to make money, but also to have games installed on the computers, allowing countless buyers to enjoy them.
