Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Sun Yiyi didn’t care how ambivalent Liu Chengyu was feeling. He officially told Liu Chengyu to hurry up on paying Li Shuhua. They’ve already spent three million. If they offend Li Shuhua for just 150k, they would lose something bigger. Li Shuhua could get him out, and he also could throw him back in jail!

Liu Chengyu had just gotten his salary for this month. Because he was on trial, he only had 3,500 RMB. It wasn’t even enough for his meals, so where could he get the 150k?

Was he really going to have to beg Zhang Pei?

When did he start asking women for money?

This was illogical and wasn’t going to happen!

In fact, Liu Chengyu had already thought of a way to accumulate money.

He turned his house inside out and found the car keys, which got hidden by Zhang Pei.

He resolutely sold the car he used in that incident.

When he bought the car, he spent more than 200k, and it had only been used to drive a bit more than 50k miles. Initially, he thought he would be able to sell it for 100k, but since there were still traces of the car accident left on the car, which could be seen no matter how he fixed it, the buyers all shook their heads and left when they saw the car and heard that it had been in the traffic bureau before.

He had no choice but to push the price down to 70k before a buyer was willing to take it.

After taking the 70k, Liu Chengyu still had no idea how he would solve this problem. He pondered for a long time, sitting in the living room when his eyes suddenly noticed the set of the piano in the main bedroom.

And so, an idea came to his mind.

These days, Zhang Pei had not taken a single break from her busy work with Liu Man. That year, when their house was getting modeled, she was the one who was fully in charge. At that time, Liu Chengyu had to go to work and only gave her money, letting her do whatever she wants. Her daughter also had no opinions and didn’t care about anything. Zhang Pei had deeply experienced the pain, and she even got sick out of exhaustion.

Compared to the warehouse makeover this time, that house modeling was nothing.

Luckily, she had Liu Man to help her do half of the job. Every week, excluding the three days in which she had to take lessons from Professor Su, Liu Man was there all the time. Liu Man arranged everything neatly, so Zhang Pei only had to be a supervisor to ensure the employees’ attitudes and progress.

The makeover employees worked in all kinds of places in the factory, and now, this place was no different from construction sites. The temperature was sweltering, and the work was exhausting and dirty. Zhang Pei and Liu Man were not coquettish at all. They worked all day and only rested at night, eating and working with the employees. Every day, when it was time to go back home, both of them were completely covered in sweat and dust, and they both stank.

On this day, Zhang Pei, once again, returned home, smelling stinky. The living room was dark, and only the rooms were lit up. Sure enough, Liu Chengyu had already laid on his bed early in the evening.

Zhang Pei was going to first take a shower. All her belongings were now in Liu Man’s original bedroom.

She entered the room, turned on the lights, and at first glance, she realized that the piano that originally leaned against the wall was gone. A rectangle black mark was left on the light-beige-colored wallpaper, which was the outline of the piano. She immediately opened her drawer chest, which she stored all her important credentials and papers in. Sure enough, everything seemed to have been touched. She took a closer look and realized the car keys were gone.

Zhang Pei instantly felt surprised and angry. She turned around to go find Liu Chengyu. Entering the room, she immediately interrogated in a sharp voice,

“Where is Man Man’s piano?”

Liu Chengyu was watching a video with his phone and was giggling. He lifted his head to see Zhang Pei, with a dark expression, standing in front of him. He didn’t take her seriously,

“I sold it.”

Such light words.

Zhang Pei was infuriated, and she almost couldn’t take her breaths. Her face was extremely red, and her eyes widened like they never did before as she glared at him. Her appearance was a bit horrifying, and she scared Liu Chengyu. He then, finally, sat up on the bed and said as if his actions were reasonable, “It’s the end of the month. That Lawyer Li had already called us, asking for his payment. To get him his money, I sold both the car and the piano and barely got the 150k. I gave him his money right in time.”

“Who gave you the right to do whatever you want to Man Man’s things? Who allowed you to flip through my things without my permission?” Zhang Pei hollered at Liu Chengyu, “You wanted to sell the piano and the car, but why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”

Liu Chengyu was getting upset from being yelled at, and his expression straightened, too, “The money spent on buying my daughter’s piano came from me. Is that ‘Man Man’ you are talking about my daughter? What right does she have, using my daughter’s things? We are husband and wife to each other. Why can’t I even touch your things? There’s no secret.”

Luckily, when Liu Man left the house, she only brought with her her belongings, or Liu Chengyu might’ve said she was a thief.

“Are you blind? You haven’t seen and are reluctant to see how much Man Man has done for our family. How many times have I said it? Without her, we would be broke and the family would’ve collapsed. Why can’t you get over her past? Why can’t you see her good side?”

“You are determined on letting me accept a person I’ve only seen once as my daughter. Don’t you think it’s too hard for me?” Liu Chengyu felt he had been extremely wronged. His daughter was gone, and his wife was forcing him to accept another daughter, “You’ve just been brainwashed by that Princess and are always saying good things about her. You haven’t been this good to our daughter before!”

“Why is your mind so fixed? Why are you so selfish and stubborn? You should feel the most shame about our daughter. You are the one who caused such huge trouble by drinking and killing someone in a car accident. You aren’t reflecting on your actions, but now you are blaming others?”

Liu Chengyu said firmly, “Back in the detention center, I’ve already reflected many times in front of the officers. I’ve already had enough reflections! Drinking and driving are completely different from my daughter’s soul getting changed.”

Zhang Pei was so angry to the point that she started calming down.

For everyone else, they would see true love in the hard times. For them, they would see true morality in the hard times. She had been married to Liu Chengyu for more than twenty years, but she had never seen him so clearly. She was probably blind from the “true love” and the “happiness” in the past. More and more flaws of Liu Chengyu were now showing up, and Zhang Pei could no longer tolerate them.

Liu Chengyu, seeing how Zhang Pei’s appearance was not as scary as it was just now, thought she was no longer angry. His tone showed he wanted peace, “All I’ve done was selling the piano. There’s no need to be so angry with me. Even if the piano stayed here, nobody plays it anyway, so it would’ve just been a useless decoration. I haven’t touched your things either; I’ve just taken away the car keys.”

“Even until now, you still don’t know why I got angry. I’m also this house’s owner. From start to end, you haven’t respected any of my opinions,” Zhang Pei stopped yelling at Liu Chengyu; it was just that her indifferent tone seemed as if she was talking to a stranger.

“I don’t even know what you are so busy about every day. I never even catch a glimpse of your shadow. How could I have told you?”

Liu Chengyu had a huge “mountain” of reasons. Even if he couldn’t see her, at least he could’ve called her.

Zhang Pei didn’t want to argue against him anymore. Her heart was getting tired and was feeling pain. For such a type of person, it was not worth it to get sick because of her anger. She stopped talking, turned around, left Liu Chengyu’s room, and even “thoughtfully” closed the door for him.

Liu Chengyu thought she was admitting to losing this argument. He felt very proud. No matter what they were arguing about, she would never win against him. In the end, he would still be the one taking advantage.

TL’s Note: The original chapter title here is actually “Chapter 238: Selling the Car and the Piano”, but I was afraid it would be too much of a spoiler. Sorry! XD
