Chapter 47 The Battle Between Father and Son

Chen Jiazhi was an independent person with a strong sense of self-awareness. He had been like this since he was young.

Therefore, even Chen Tianfeng could not control him in the family. Chen Tianfeng and Chen Jiazhi were both people who insisted on their own views. Therefore, as time passed, the two of them would easily have conflicts over big and small matters. They had never gotten along very well. It was just that the two of them did not talk much, and they kept their conflicts to themselves.

However, Chen Jingzhi was different. His character was more like his mother’s, and he was good at socializing since he was young.

He was very popular among his parents. He also had an eloquent mouth and silver tongue, and he was full of lies. Therefore, Chen Tianfeng had been biased over the past few years, and he was completely doting on Chen Jingzhi.

In his eyes, Chen Jingzhi was just a child. What kind of heinous things could a child do? Even if he was a playboy, he did not make any big mistakes. He did not understand why Chen Jiazhi could not tolerate him.

“Your brother is just a child! He’s still young! What can he understand? Do you have to chase him out?” Chen Tianfeng said bitterly.

Chen Jiazhi was cold, but his heart was also cold. His father’s preference lasted for many years. Now that Chen Jingzhi was an adult, he still favored him at this time.

Chen Jiazhi pinched the cup in his hand and said coldly, “Child? Your son is not a giant baby anymore.”

In the past, he could turn a blind eye to it, but now that Chen Jingzhi who did not know what was good for him actually bullied his wife, he was simply too bold.

“You! How can you say that about your brother!” Chen Tianfeng angrily questioned.

Chen Jiazhi said lightly, “Why not? I just don’t like him. If you can’t discipline your own son well, then don’t blame me for helping you discipline him!”

Chen Tianfeng was so angry that he trembled. He stood up and glared at Chen Jiazhi. He angrily said, “He’s still injured! That broken leg of his was also caused by you, right? I will not pursue this matter with you. However, his injury has not recovered yet. There are still people at home who can take care of him. If you send him out, who will take care of him? Aren’t you trying to take his life?” Chen Jiazhi did not even lift his eyelids. He said casually, “Oh? In that case, why don’t you move out to accompany him? In any case, your heart aches for him so that you won’t miss him day and night.”

“You!! You unfilial son!” Chen Tianfeng was so angry at Chen Jiazhi that he kept coughing, scaring the people around him. They all tried to help him calm down.

Chen Tianfeng took a few breaths and felt that his eldest son seemed to have changed.

Ever since he woke up this time, he seemed to have changed into a different person. In the past, Chen Jiazhi was a little stubborn, but he would not talk to him like he did now.

Chen Tianfeng was thinking about what caused this, and he caught a glimpse of Bei Qingqing from the corner of his eye.

He suddenly realized that it must be this woman. Ever since she came to his home, Chen Jingzhi’s leg had been broken, and now he was being chased out by Chen Jiazhi. He thought that it must be Bei Qingqing who had stirred up trouble and instigated the relationship between the two brothers. Otherwise, it would not have come to this point.

Chen Tianfeng looked at Bei Qingqing with a livid expression. He pointed at her and asked, “Are you the woman who bewitched my son? What did you do?!”

Bei Qingqing was stunned by the sudden accusation. She did not expect that the blame could be placed on her. As the saying goes, like father, like son.

Chapter 48 Make Her Leave the Chen Family

Bei Qingqing cursed silently in her heart.

This Chen Jingzhi and his father were practically carved out of the same mold. He was a master at shifting the blame. Chen Jingzhi’s leg was clearly caused by his own deserved punishment. If Chen Jingzhi had not caused trouble with her in the beginning, then these things would not have happened in the first place.

Facing Chen Tianfeng’s sudden accusation, Bei Qingqing did not know how to answer. Moreover, she did not do anything to Chen Jiazhi, let alone something like bewitching the two brothers.

“I didn’t do anything,” Bei Qingqing said in a low voice.

Chen Tianfeng snorted. “If it’s not you, then who is it? Nothing good has happened since you came to this house!”

Bei Qingqing felt wronged, but this was her father-in-law after all. She could not refute him like she did Chen Jingzhi. She really could not say it out loud.

“I think you must be the one behind my son’s back, trying to sow discord between the two brothers. Although I don’t know what your motive is, I’m warning you, if you want to stay in this house, then you have to be more honest!”

Bei Qingqing felt frustrated. She wanted to explain, but she did not know where to begin. Her father-in-law was clearly biased against her. Bei Qingqing knew that even if she explained, it would be useless.

Chen Jiazhi snorted coldly and held Bei Qingqing’s hand.

Chen Jiazhi said indifferently, “You don’t have the mood to question my woman, do you? If you can’t bear to part with Chen Jingzhi, fine! Then I’ll leave. Qingqing and I will move out and start our own family in the future.”

Chen Tianfeng was stunned for a moment and was very shocked. His son, whom he had raised for so many years, was actually going to threaten him to split his family for a woman? He had really rebelled!

At the same time, Li Yilan, who remained silent at the side, was also frightened. There had always been some minor conflicts between Chen Jiazhi and Chen Tianfeng, so Li Yilan did not take it to heart when they quarreled. She just did not expect that it would be so serious today. They were about to split!

Li Yilan hurriedly tried to mediate the situation. She gently said to Chen Jiazhi, “Don’t be so angry. Your father didn’t mean it. We’re a family. Don’t say such things.”

Chen Jiazhi said in a muffled voice, “He didn’t mean it, but I meant what I said!”

“Bei Qingqing, push me back to my room. I’m tired,” Chen Jiazhi gently said to Bei Qingqing.

Bei Qingqing immediately reacted. She nodded to her parents-in-law and pushed Chen Jiazhi away from the dining table.

Watching Chen Jiazhi leave, Chen Tianfeng’s blood pressure rose sharply. He slammed the table angrily. “It’s really the opposite! It must be this ungrateful woman who is whispering in my son’s ear. That’s why Jiazhi is so rebellious now!” Chen Tianfeng was so angry that his hands were shaking, but he insisted that it was Bei Qingqing’s fault.

Li Yilan was speechless, she said unhappily, “What does this have to do with Qingqing? It’s all because your words are too harsh. That’s why our son isn’t willing to stay under the same roof as you. Qingqing is a good child. Moreover, ever since Qingqing came to our house, Jiazhi has also woken up. His business is also getting better and better. She’s clearly our family’s little lucky star.”

Chen Tianfeng snorted in dissatisfaction. “What little lucky star? Women are so lenient! This woman looked simple and innocent on the outside. Perhaps she had been scheming behind the scenes to become the new master of the Chen Family! No, now that Jiazhi has already woken up, Bei Qingqing can not stay here any longer.”
