He said he doesn't love me

Chapter 81 It’s Time to Calm Down

Li Cheng frowned and thought for a moment. The document in his hand seemed to be hiding something.

Ming Lang, Sun Li said, what secrets are there behind the sudden disappearance of Sun Ran that he can't find out?

"Clap clap clap..."

Raindrops fell on the car window one by one, and the sky suddenly darkened, which made people feel extremely irritated. Li Cheng drove to the castle. He needed the help of the Castei family. Although he was not very clear about the relationship between Sun Ran and them, Si Wen said that they would not sit idly by.

Li Cheng thought carefully and it seemed that the people in the castle were all very friendly to Sun Ran. They called him "Young Master" one by one with a respectful tone. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were treating him with courtesy.

He didn't care about anything else and could only hope that Sun Ran had not left here, giving them time to pursue him.

However, I didn't expect that due to the rain, there was a traffic jam on the road, and the journey that was supposed to take half an hour was extended to more than 40 minutes.

At 6:26, Li Cheng hurriedly stopped the car and rushed into the castle. The old butler outside the door was startled and hurriedly stopped him.

"Sir, sir! What can I do for you?" The butler spread his arms to stop him, his eyes full of vigilance, as if he would kill anyone who trespassed without mercy.

Seeing this, Li Cheng slipped and almost fell out, but fortunately he managed to keep his body steady and did not fall.

He had lost time on the road and didn't know where Sun Ran was now. Being stopped at the door made him extremely anxious. He didn't care about being polite and shouted hurriedly, "Mr. Ai Jie Luo, I'm Li Cheng. Sun Ran has been taken away. Could you please send someone to help look for him?!"

The butler's eyes widened when he heard this, "Sir, are you saying that the young master is missing?! Quick, quick, please come in, the sir hasn't come back yet, I'll go contact him right away!" He hurriedly let everyone in and called Aijie Luo. After finding out what happened, he contacted the people as instructed and began a large-scale search for the person.

When De Lu Si heard that the young master was missing, he stopped cooking and rushed out of the kitchen to ask, "The young master was fine this morning, how come he disappeared?! What should we do now? The young master was not in good health to begin with, what if he caught a cold?"

Li Cheng gave a few instructions and hurriedly left the castle. Although a family had taken action here, Hua Xia didn't know if anyone would help.

It is still unknown what the Sun family’s attitude is. Now he can only try to contact his friends in China for help.

"Beep beep..."

The sudden ringing of the cell phone startled the already nervous Li Cheng. He was afraid that the call would contain bad news, but he didn't dare not answer it.

"Hello? Has anyone been found?!"

Tang Lele was just about to ask Sun Ran why the call was not connected, but she was stunned when she heard the words, "Li Cheng, it's Lele, who is missing? Is it Ranbao!"

"...Yes, I don't know who took Sun Ran away. Where are you now?" Li Cheng had an idea instantly when he heard that he was still in China.

"Le Le, go to the Sun family and ask them to help look for him. I want to ask you, is there anything Sun Ran has done that no one else knows about?"

Minglang is an organization that does both black and white, and can do anything with money. It stands to reason that such an organization would not bother to attack ordinary people, so why would they attack the Sun family?

Last time it was Sun Qi. Sun Qi was easy to deal with as that project involved too many grievances. What about Sun Ran?

Sun Ran was just born when the project started, so it is impossible that Sun Ran was also related to the project. Then why did they do this?

"No, he and I have been childhood sweethearts. He tells me everything." Tang Lele thought for a long time, "But why did he leave the Sun family? I really don't know. Could it be related to this?"

Does it matter? Li Cheng is not sure.

But to say it didn't matter seemed unlikely to him.

"I'll hang up first. Please go to the Sun family. Keep an eye out for the way back to China in the next two days. Thank you for your hard work." Li Cheng hung up the phone and drove back home.

Tong Wangshu was applying a facial mask at the moment, and was really frightened when the door was kicked open. Tong Wangshu immediately sat up and looked towards the door. Seeing that it was Li Cheng, she immediately curled her lips and said, "What's wrong with you? Can't you open the door properly?"

"Mom, I have something to ask you." Li Cheng closed the door and walked over to his mother. "Mom, is there any conflict within the Sun family?"

Tong Wangshu patted his face and shook his head slightly, "How can I know about other people's family affairs. But... it is said that there was a big fight at the beginning, but somehow it was dropped."

"Do you know what's going on?" Li Cheng was unable to determine who took Sun Ran away, but Sun Li's words proved that he should have guessed who it was.

Does that have something to do with the original conflict?

"It seems to be because of the car accident. I heard that someone died, and it was one body and two lives. I don't know anything else." Tong Wangshu took off his mask and glanced at Li Cheng. "Why are you suddenly so concerned about the Sun family? Aren't you joking with that young master? Are you really moved?"

Li Cheng ignored her teasing and said, "Sun Ran is missing. I suspect the person who took him away is Ming Lang's killer."

Tong Wangshu's face immediately turned cold, "Ming Lang?!" She lowered her eyes and thought for a while before she spoke, "Mom, let me ask you a question. Do you want to take care of this matter?"

"What do you mean?" Li Cheng frowned, "He is my husband, so of course I have to take care of him."

"Just because he's your husband?" Tong Wangshu raised his eyebrows. "You asked me to come all the way to teach him and sent me an invitation letter, and you told me it's just a title?"

"...Whatever you think." Li Cheng turned his head away and ignored her. "I want to manage it. No matter what, we agreed to give it a try. I can't let him be in danger alone."

He turned around and looked at his mother. "Didn't you say that you hated men who did nothing the most? When you were pregnant, your father left home after finding out. So even though you got married later, this still bothered you. Now he needs me. I want to find him. I need him."

Tong Wangshu said nothing.

"If I had understood his implicit meaning, he wouldn't have gone abroad and wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing! Mother, the last time he got into trouble, I was really panicked and confused, but there was nothing I could do. Someone was chasing me and I couldn't recognize him. I could only watch him walk towards someone else step by step, and I..." Before Li Cheng could finish his words, he suddenly felt a warm touch on his head. He looked up and saw his mother stroking his hair.

"You are tempted, and I have no objection. But child, this is his family affair. You want to get involved, but there is no guarantee that you can get out of it safely. If he resists you, what will you do?" Tong Wangshu patted his shoulder distressedly, "Everyone has pain that everyone must experience, and this cannot be changed."

"But, it's always better to have someone accompany you than to be alone. Mother, please help me!" Li Cheng looked at her with bright eyes. "When he appeared outside of my plan, I had no way out... Even if he doesn't want to accept me, I won't regret it."

Having said this, Tong Wangshu withdrew her hand, stood up and took out a photo from the cabinet. She handed the photo to Li Cheng and said softly, "In the beginning, the Sun family had two heirs, Sun Zhaolin and Sun Zhaoxu. But a car accident nineteen years ago broke the relationship between the two brothers."

"At that time, Sun Ran's mother Shen Anran was about to give birth, and was originally sent to the hospital by Sun Zhaolin. But unexpectedly, just when they were about to leave, Sun Zhaoxu's wife Jiang Ningna also had a miscarriage. Both ladies needed to go to the hospital at the same time, and Sun Zhaoxu was far away abroad and couldn't come back." Tong Wangshu pointed to the two ladies in the photo who were smiling gently, and for a moment he was unable to say the following words.

Li Cheng recognized one of them. She was his aunt whom he had met before, Sun Ran’s mother, Shen Anran.

She was beautiful, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and fair skin. At this moment, she was holding hands with another lady, and it was obvious that the two had a very good relationship.

"What happened next?" Li Cheng asked.

"Later, there was a car accident on the road...Sun Zhaolin subconsciously protected his wife, and Jiang Ningna unfortunately died on the spot, leaving two lives."

Li Cheng lowered his eyes, "Everyone would subconsciously protect his wife, right?"

"Yes, but the bad thing is that Sun Zhaoxu thought his brother did it on purpose, and Sun Zhaolin was unwilling to explain, so the two brothers separated from each other. After Sun Ran was born, the couple didn't want to face the child, so they gave it to their eldest son and went abroad."

Tong Wangshu sighed, "Poor child, she is only half a month older than Sun Ran, and is a healthy girl..."

"What does that have to do with Sun Ran?" Li Cheng was puzzled. "Why would adults take out their grudges on children?"

"So I told you, this is someone else's business, we can't interfere." Tong Wangshu looked at him, "Minglang was founded by Sun Zhaoxu. Knowing this, do you still want to save it? Even if you go, the Sun family will definitely not help."

"Why? Isn't Sun Ran a child of the Sun family? Are we going to let an innocent child bear the consequences just because of that car accident?" Li Cheng stood up after hearing this, his eyes full of heartache, "So... the Sun family knows everything, right?"

Tong Wangshu nodded and said nothing more.

"You are lying to me, aren't you? How could you know so much?" Li Cheng couldn't believe that there would really be parents who didn't love their own children and allowed others to take all their grievances out on one child.

"What good will it do me if I lie to you? Sun Ran is determined to marry you because we know the truth and hope that we can protect him. Why do you think he wants to be with you at all costs?" Tong Wang breathed a sigh of relief, "If you want to save him, I will contact your grandfather for help. If not, he will not be in any danger. At most, he will suffer a little."

"So you also think this is right?!" Li Cheng looked at his mother in disbelief, "Do you also think that his revenge is right? Is it really right to let the grudges of the previous generation affect the next generation?! I want to save him, I must save him!"

Seeing that he was determined, Tong Wangshu had no choice but to contact his father and ask him to come forward.

"You have to think clearly. If you help, you are going against the Sun family. Your work, company, and projects will not be easy in the future!" Tong Wangshu finished the call and advised again, "He is his uncle. Nothing serious will happen to him."

"What do you know?" Li Cheng felt his heart aching. When he heard from others that Sun Ran suffered from a mental illness, he didn't think much of it. After all, everyone is under a lot of pressure nowadays.

But he never thought that the Sun family would choose to turn a blind eye!

No wonder, no wonder!

No wonder he never mentioned going back to the Sun family even when he was unhappy with me. Was it because he had already discovered all this at that time?

He was surrounded by a huge spider web. After a long time, a ray of light appeared, but he found that the light was unwilling to illuminate him, so he would rather die than look back...

"Mom... I feel so sad..." Li Cheng's eyes were red and his vision was blurred by tears, "Why is there no one in the Sun family willing to protect him..."

Tong Wangshu shook his head. "I don't know. You'd better not get involved too much. He is not a good person."

Li Cheng wiped his eyes, "If he is not a good person, then who is? Mom, you said he is not a good person, but his knife always cuts himself. Can't such a person be considered a good person?"

"You know what? His body is covered with wounds, and every wound is him asking for help. I used to find him annoying and irritating. But now that I think about it, he didn't seem to have done anything bad, but why...why do you even say he's not a good person?"

Tong Wangshu never thought that her son would say these words. In fact, she didn't know Sun Ran very well and she just believed the rumors.
