Chapter 338 - Madness
Chapter 338 – Madness
Translator: Lonelytree
In her previous life, Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao hurried back after Xiao Tong’s death. When they were consoling Xiao Lingyu, her cousin Xiao Lingyun and her two daughters committed suicide. They died from drinking pesticides.
Their two granddaughters were in trouble. Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao endured their grief and hurried back to the Cheng family. However, they didn’t even get to see Xiao Lingyum and her daughters for one last time because the Cheng Family had already cremated them without informing the Xiao
Family.
Of course, the Xiao Family wouldn’t believe that Xiao Lingyun would commit suicide. She had already endured the abuse for four years. Why would she suddenly commit suicide?
They wanted the Cheng family to give an explanation.
‘The Cheng Family said that Xiao Lingyun felt guilt because she didn’t give the Cheng Family any son. So she took her two daughters and left this world to make up for her mistake.
Of course, the Xiao family did not believe such a ridiculous reason.
They had no choice but to go to the police station and report that the Cheng family had killed Xiao Lingyun and her daughter.
However, the police arrested the Xiao Family instead for slander. They were detained for half a month. When the Xiao Family returned home, they saw three urns placed before their family door. The three urns were smashed and the ash was everywhere.
The Xiao Family was devastated.
They had never thought that the Cheng family would be so heartless and even so inhumane. After killing the mother and daughters, they still treated them like this.
The wind blew and the ashes scattered everywhere.
The neighbors felt afraid and unlucky.
They requested the Xiao family to move immediately. The Xiao Family rented their house then. The landlord was terrified and asked them to move out immediately. Moreover, he demanded that the Xiao Family pay compensation. The ashes meant that his house couldn’t be rented out in the near future. It
had caused him a huge loss.
The Xiao Family was besieged from all sides. Regardless, the Xiao Family bought three new urns and scooped up as many ashes as they could. They were going to return to Taoyuan Village. However, all the bus drivers stopped them from getting on the vehicles. The urns were signs of bad luck.
A truck driver was willing to drive them, but he asked for an exorbitant price. The Xiao Family had no choice but to pay. The whole family thus moved back to Taoyuan Village.
One month after Xiao Lingyun’s death, the Xiao Family heard that Cheng Feiging had married a new wife.
The Xiao Family wouldn’t let Xiao Lingyun and her daughters die for no reason. They had to seek justice. At Kanglin City, the Xiao Family couldn’t do anything, but back at Taoyuan Village, they had the support of the whole Xiao Family.
The Xiao Family brought this to court. This lawsuit lasted for more than half a year.
Eventually, justice did come.
‘When the Xiao Family sued the Cheng Family, it was big news. It attracted the attention of many people. When they heard about the tragic story of Xiao Lingyun and her daughters, they immediately supported the Xiao Family. The public pressured the police. Some people even volunteered to hire lawyers
to help the Xiao Family.
In the end, the truth came out.
It turned out that when the Xiao Family returned to Taoyuan Village for Xiao Tong’s death, the Cheng Family took the opportunity to put pesticides in the food.
In order to protect her two daughters, Xiao Lingyun endured the humiliation and violence of the Cheng family, but she was unwilling to leave.
In order to force Xiao Lingyun to leave, the Cheng family treated Xiao Lingyum as a slave and ordered her around.
The two daughters were similar to servants.
Xiao Lingyun had to do alll the housework. After they finished the work, they could only eat the leftovers. However, most of the time, the Cheng Family wouldn’t even give them the leftovers. They would pour the leftovers to the dogs.
But Xiao Lingyun wasn’t going to let her daughters starve to death. Since they dumped the leftovers, she cooked another meal. If there were no rice, she would smash the rice vat. If there were no food, she would smash the fridge. She would fight them to the death.
Eventually, the Cheng Family left the three leftovers. This continued for four years.
Finally, the reason why the Cheng Family decided to kill was Cheng Feiping’s affair with the daughter of a bureau chief had led to the pregnancy. It was a boy.
After the Cheng family heard about it, they were so happy.
The girl said that she needed a formal title if they wanted the son. Otherwise, she would go for an abortion. The girl did love Cheng Feiping. She didn’t care that he was a married man. But now that she was pregnant, her mindset changed. She had to give her child a status.
Cheng Feiping was already married. If she gave birth as his mistress, where would she put her face? Plus, since Cheng Feiping already had two daughters, the country’s one-child policy wouldn’t be kind to her.
When the Cheng Family heard about this, they were anxious.
Xiao Lingyun was willing to get a divorce. However, she wanted to take away her two children.
Why would she do that? It was to use them to ask Cheng Feiping for more money in the future. Furthermore, even after the divorce, the girls would still be Cheng Feiping’s. It would affect the actual grandson of the Cheng Family due to the government policy.
Cheng Feiping’s parents hoped for a grandson, but their two granddaughters stood in the way. Their existence meant that their grandson wouldn’t get the government’s support.
After much consideration, the best solution was to kill the two girls. It was easy to kill the two girls, but it wouldn’t be easy to kill Xiao Lingyun. Once her daughters died, she would probably risk her life to deal with the Cheng Family. Therefore, to ensure that everything had proper closure, the Cheng
Family decided to kill all three of them. Then, they made it look like a suicide.
After the case of Xiao Lingyun and her daughter’s suicide was exposed, the public ire reached a new height.
‘The Cheng family was simply insane. For a son and a grandson, they actually killed their daughter-in-law and granddaughters.
Cheng Feiping, Cheng Feiping’s parents, and Cheng Feiping’s sister were arrested. They faced the law.
When this happened, Xiao Lingyu was still in a haze of grief. She didn’t know what had happened to her cousin. When she snapped out of it, the case was already solved. No one mentioned anything to Xiao Lingyu, afraid that it would agitate her to fall back into despair.
At the same time, Xiao Lingyu had left Taoyuan Village and returned to City Z. To avoid images of Xiao Tong, she didn’t dare to go home.
She soared to new heights in the workplace. Gradually, she also forgot about the matters related to Xiao Lingyun.
After her rebirth, she returned home with a fearful and uneasy heart to the farm.
After she was pregnant, her family treated her as a national treasure and did not let her worry about anything. Furthermore, Xiao Lingyu had to match her wits with Gong Tianhao. But of course, this match was one-way only.
If her eldest uncle didn’t return, Xiao Lingyu would have completely forgotten about her cousin. The difference was that this time they didn’t retum for Xiao Tong’s death but to celebrate Ye ‘Er’s good results.
Xiao Lingyu was very anxious. At the same time, she was also very guilty and remorseful.
Since her reborn, she had changed the fate of her family. How could the issue of her cousin have slipped her mind? If she had remembered this earlier, she would have saved her cousin.

‘When she thought of how her cousin and her daughters were murdered in her previous life, Xiao Lingyu’s heart trembled. She said nervously, “Eldest uncle, we need to return to Kanglin City now. Cousin and her daughters are in grave danger.”
Everyone’s expression changed when they heard Xiao Lingyu’s words.
Uncle Xiao immediately asked, “Yu ‘Er, what do you mean by that? Why would Yun ‘Er be in danger?”
Xiao Lingyu said, “That Cheng Family is insane. For the sake of their grandson, they will sacrifice Yun ‘Er. Normally, they would have misgivings because you were there. But now that you’ve left Kanglin City, the Cheng Family will take this opportunity.
“Take this opportunity?” Xiao Zhengyang frowned and asked in disbelief, “Yu ‘Er, do you mean that the Cheng family will kill Yun ‘Er and her daughters?”
Xiao Lingyu was very anxious and said in fear, “They will. What should we do now? If we rush over now, we might not make it in time.”
Even if the transportation system was developed now, it would still take at least a day to get from the Taoyuan Village to Kanglin City.
The Cheng Family would take fast action. The earlier this was over, the more advantageous it would be for them. After the murders, they would burn the victims in the crematorium.
“But this is murder! Will the Cheng Family really do that?” Xiao Lingye widened his eyes in disbelief.
Xiao Lingyu said loudly, “What if they disguise the murder as suicide?”
“Suicide?!”
‘When everyone heard this, their faces turned pale and showed fear, especially Xiao Jingyang and his wife.
They had been dealing with the Cheng family for many years, so they knew very well about nature. Xiao Lingyu’s prediction might come true.
‘What Xiao Lingyu said might happen.
Aunt Xiao immediately cried with worry, “We have to go back immediately.”
“Yes!” Everyone agreed.
Regardless of the murder prediction, they realized it was not wise to leave Xiao Lingyun alone with that family of maniacs.
However, Xiao Lingyu was worried that even if they rushed over now, it might already be too late. It took Grandpa Xiao and the others to travel a whole day to move from Kanglin City to Taoyuan Village. The Cheng Family had plenty of time to plan the murder.
“What do we do? What do we do now?”
Xiao Lingyu was anxious.
At this moment, they heard a roar above them.
Then, they heard someone shouting, “What’s that?”
“A plane? That looks like a plane. I saw it on TV. It’s a small plane.”
“No, you’re wrong. That’s not a small plane. It’s called a helicopter!”
Xiao Lingyu looked up and saw a helicopter hovering in mid-air.
Xiao Lingyu was quite confused at first. ‘Where did this helicopter come from?
Then, her eyes widened in disbelief.
‘A helicopter? Could it be him?
Just as she was thinking, Gong Tianhao came to the Xiao family’s courtyard.
After hearing Xiao Lingyu’s speculation, the Xiao family members were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
Grandpa Xiao and the others came back by train. The train ride took seven hours. The train ride back would take another seven hours. Plus, there was no train so late at night. It would take more than ten hours by car.
Yang Liu was going crazy with anxiety.
When Xiao Lingyu saw Gong Tianhao enter, her eyes lit up.
This made Gong Tianhao raise his eyebrows curiously. Xiao Lingyu had never been so enthusiastic about seeing him before.
However, when he thought of the situation reported by his subordinate, Gong Tianhao stopped the thought of teasing her.
Xiao Lingyu asked anxiously, “Gong Tianhao, is this helicopter yours?”
Gong Tianhao nodded and said, “Yes, it’s mine.”
‘When Xiao Lingyu heard that, she immediately pulled on his sleeve with a pleading look in her eyes.
She said, “Gong Tianhao, can I ask you for a favor? Can you please take me to Kanglin City to find my cousin? Her family is in danger…”
Xiao Lingyu did not dare to continue.
Gong Tianhao patted the back of her hand and said, “Yu Er, don’t worry. I’m willing to do a hundred or a thousand favors for you. I’ll take you there now.”
“Thank you!”
