From the very first moment she saw him, she felt a strange sense of familiarity with him, yet she also utterly disliked him!
“She…” Su Meng paused.
"Let her tell you herself."
Lu Cheng had previously told her not to interfere in other people's family affairs.
"Then... does Brother Acheng like her?" Xinxia asked.
Su Meng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Probably."
When Lü Cheng was a child, he had the best relationship with Ye Chang. Because she and Lü Chengze were very busy and had little free time, and Ye Chang also liked the child very much, Lü Cheng spent most of his childhood with Ye Chang in Greece. In fact, apart from Ye Chang, no one knew that she had a child. As a result, Lü Cheng was not involved in the riots in the Holy City.
Because of the relationship between the two of them, she never doubted that Ye Chang would abandon Lü Cheng and leave alone.
However, she never imagined that their relationship would develop into what it is now!
Ye Chang actually seduced her son!
When exactly did this woman come up with this idea?
It couldn't have been there since childhood, could it?
Wen Tai was still alive back then...
……
After putting Ye Chang down, Lü Cheng returned to the living room.
Upon seeing Lü Cheng's arrival, Mu Ningxue and her group all tacitly got up and returned to their rooms without saying a word.
Let's see who this bastard goes to first!
Su Meng could also see the resentment in the girls' hearts, but she really couldn't speak up about it, since it was her son who had provoked so many people first.
"Acheng, what are you planning to do?" Su Meng asked.
"What do you mean, what should we do?" Lü Cheng lay down on the sofa.
Ye Chang has finally got it all sorted out!
After today, even if Wen Tai is resurrected, Ye Chang will only stand on his side.
"With so many girls, you..." Su Meng really didn't know what to say for a moment.
Actually, she felt that two or three would be fine, after all, Xinxia and Asharuya were basically betrothed as children. But now, there were too many!
And this isn't even all of what's in the house!
“Don’t worry, they all know what kind of person I am, and I’ve never pretended to be a gentleman,” Lü Cheng said.
“I said from the beginning that if they are willing to stay with me, I will do my best to treat them well. If they are not willing, I will not force them to leave whenever they want.”
So far, he has only been in a committed relationship with two people.
Mu Ningxue, and Tang Yue.
But the others, to be honest, haven't officially confirmed their relationship yet. They're not even boyfriend and girlfriend yet; they're just in an ambiguous relationship.
"Huh?" Su Meng was stunned.
She thought these girls were just at the point of not going all the way, but it turns out they were still just in ambiguous relationships.
"Otherwise, what do you think?" Lu Cheng asked with a strange expression.
"If I really took them all, do you think they would still be so well-behaved?"
Mu Ningxue was indifferent and felt guilty towards him, so she didn't really care that he was philandering. As long as he wasn't messing around, Mu Ningxue would at most despise him and wouldn't really get angry with him. Moreover, the girl didn't really care about right and wrong, just like Ye Chang. If necessary, she could be even more wicked than evil.
Then there's Tang Yue, who knows him quite well. Given the dangerous nature of her job, she never even considered a lifelong commitment with him from the beginning. She likes him, at least for now. Even without knowing if she might die in the line of duty during the next mission, Tang Yue doesn't have any controlling tendencies towards him. In fact, she often shows a kind of doting affection, like an older sister looking at a younger brother. Of course, she gets jealous sometimes, but it's a minor issue that can be resolved with a good night's sleep.
Moreover, Tang Yue had always known that he was not a good person.
The first time, he burned the Dongfang family members to death. The second time, facing citizens who could die from illness at any moment, he could wait indifferently until he was truly in dire straits before letting the Xuan Snake appear.
Tang Yue was mentally prepared, and she accepted him as he was; otherwise, she would have left long ago.
But to be honest, the others still don't understand what kind of person he is.
He said he would give them time and opportunity to choose. This wasn't some hypocrite; he would only take things further if he was certain that the other person knew what he truly was, yet still wanted to be with him.
Before that, he wouldn't do anything on his own initiative.
But right now, at least for now, none of them have actually made up their minds yet, including Ye Xinxia.
Dudu!
"Hello?" Lü Cheng answered the phone.
"Acheng, are you... alright?" Tang Yue's voice came through the phone.
Lu Cheng frowned slightly. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, just...you should get some rest."
After saying that, Tang Yue hung up the phone.
Lu Cheng looked at Su Meng, "Did something happen while I was sleeping?"
Su Meng shook her head. "I don't know, I haven't been paying attention."
Lu Cheng paused for a moment, then dialed Leng Qing's number.
"What happened?"
After a long silence, Leng Qing finally spoke, "Are you... from the Black Vatican?"
"Why are you asking this?" Lu Cheng asked.
"Yes, or no?" Leng Qing's tone was somewhat solemn.
"No, what's wrong?" Lu Cheng asked.
"Then why did you come into contact with Salang?" Leng Qing asked.
Lu Cheng was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"The Trial Council has received information from the Black Vatican's spies that you have close ties with Salam," Leng Qing said in a deep voice.
"According to the investigation by the trial committee, the facts are true!"
Lu Cheng frowned slightly. "Something happened to Tang Yue?"
“She contacted you in Bo City and had that kind of relationship with you, but she never reported any information about it. Now, the trial will have enough reason to suspect that she has been infiltrated by the Black Vatican. Because of you, she has been dismissed and is under investigation!” Leng Qing said through gritted teeth.
Do you know how many people have had their families destroyed and lives ruined because of the Black Vatican?
Do you know how much the Trials hate the Black Vatican?
Why did you contact Salam?
"You have someone protecting you, so the National Magic Association won't dare to touch you, but Tang Yue is in trouble!"
"Because of your connection with the Black Vatican, Tang Yue is now universally hated!"
"You've been sleeping for months on end, enjoying yourself so much! Do you know how Tang Yue has been doing all this time?!"
"So many people blocked her door, so many people cursed at her!"
"The Black Vatican is insane, and those who have been persecuted by it are just as insane!"
As a judge of the Tribunal, failing to detect in time that someone close to her was suspected of being affiliated with the Black Vatican constitutes dereliction of duty. Furthermore, Tang Yue had been in contact with Lü Cheng since Bocheng, and for such a long time, the Tribunal reasonably suspects that she knew about it but failed to report it!
Even she, if it weren't for her grandfather's influence, would have been invited in!
So many people died in the catastrophe that struck the ancient capital, and now the whole country is outraged!
It's no exaggeration to say that anyone associated with the Black Vatican will have their entire family implicated!
Even Tang Zhong couldn't suppress this matter!
Lu Cheng's news was forcibly suppressed by his superiors, and now Tang Yuecheng has found an outlet for his frustration!

……
"She was arrested?" Lu Cheng asked.
Leng Qing took a deep breath, "In order to protect her safety, Tang Zhong had no choice but to..."
"Has he been arrested?" Lu Cheng asked.
"..."
Dudu!
"Acheng, what's wrong?" Su Meng asked worriedly.
"Your daughter-in-law has been arrested." Lü Cheng answered Pang Lai's call.
"Acheng? You're awake? Are you alright? By the way, your mom didn't yell at you, did she? About this..."
