Chapter 108: The Jiang Family Falls Apart

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

A few days after the encounter with Feng Lu, Jiang Shaocheng finally brought Tang Qiu back home. Their trip was finally over. Tang Qiu especially missed her textbooks. She was anxious just thinking about the classes she had missed.

Therefore, the first thing she did when she returned was to look for Xie Qingqing and ask for her notes, before cramming tutoring sessions to catch up.

It couldn’t be helped. After all, she had to work to survive. Even if her husband didn’t say anything, Tang Qiu felt that they had spent no small amount of money on their trip. Although her mother’s matter had weighed on her for a while, she couldn’t just keep blaming herself. Life had to go on.

Tang Qiu was as hardy as a cactus–she would survive wherever she was planted.

In the library, Tang Qiu wanted to study, but people started pointing at her from the moment she entered. Was she in the wrong place? Otherwise, why would everyone be gossiping instead of revising?

But Tang Qiu didn’t make a habit of paying attention to things which didn’t concern her. She took out Xie Qingqing’s notes and began to study. However, the discussion soon reached her ears.

“Is that the Tang Qiu who married the cripple of the Jiang family? I don’t know if she’s lucky or unlucky…”

“Why do you care? Maybe they’re secretly happy! Although her husband is crippled, he’s still alive. The rest of the Jiang family are either in prison or have committed suicide. Her husband is the only one left. He still has enough money for them to survive… Tsk, it’s been less than half a month, and the huge Jiang Corporation has already fallen apart. It’s shocking…”

Now Tang Qiu couldn’t just pretend to have heard nothing. This business involved the Jiang family! Why didn’t she know anything about it? Besides, she didn’t hear Jiang Shaocheng mention anything! Had he been in the dark too? Tang Qiu’s expression changed. Just as she was about to contact Jiang Shaocheng, she heard a book being thrown in front of her.

It was obvious that the person had a bone to pick with her. “Tang Qiu, you actually have the cheek to show your face in school!”

Tang Qiu looked up and saw that it was someone she knew. It was Feng Yao, Feng Lu’s younger sister. Coincidentally, Tang Qiu met Feng Lu overseas and Feng Yao came looking for her after returning to the country. However, Tang Qiu didn’t have time to argue with her today. Ever since she found out about her mother, Tang Qiu had lost all patience with the Feng family.

In the past, she had been at their mercy, but now, she wished she had the power to go back in time. Even if it meant not being born, she would kill that bastard Feng Guo’an!

“Why can’t I come to school? Who do you think you are?” Tang Qiu’s expression was cold. She packed her bag and prepared to leave. However, Feng Yao wasn’t about to let her go.

“You bitch! My sister was cheated overseas, but not only did you not save her, you even mocked her! You leeched off my family for years, you lowlife. How dare you?” Feng Yao thought of the news of the Jiang family’s decline, and her disdain for Tang Qiu only intensified. She had thought that Tang Qiu had missed school because she had been implicated in an investigation. It was a pity that she hadn’t taken the chance to mock Tang Qiu. In the end, she had found out from the police station that Tang Qiu was traveling with Jiang Shaocheng overseas.

Feng Yao thought of the Feng family’s current situation and glared at Tang Qiu with renewed venom. Why couldn’t she mind her own business after running into Feng Lu overseas? Now that Feng Lu’s scandal had been found out, how would she be able to find a rich husband? “The Jiang Corporation was found to have stolen taxes. The most favored family of the Jiangs–Jiang Ming’s family–was arrested for premeditated murder years ago. The Jiang family’s old master, Jiang Hanchen, had a heart attack… In other words, they fell apart. If you hadn’t borrowed money from that cripple Jiang Shaocheng in the past, you would have nothing now. You would be reduced to living on the streets! You’ll get what’s coming, you bitch. You lived in our Feng family for so many years in exchange for nothing. Ingratitude is one thing, but repaying our kindness by backstabbing us? Because of you, everyone knows about what happened to my sister! The Feng family’s reputation has been ruined by you!”

Tang Qiu did not expect so many things to happen in just a few days. And Feng Lu… Although Tang Qiu could not forgive the Feng family, she had indirectly helped Feng Lu. But in the end, the Feng family only cared about their reputation, instead of Feng Lu. They were a rotten bunch indeed!

“Since you keep saying that you care about your sister, why didn’t she receive any calls from the Feng family when she was overseas? Could it be that your family doesn’t care? Or is the Feng family going bankrupt and can’t even look after themselves?” Tang Qiu pushed her away, too consumed with worry for her husband.

She hadn’t expected her flippant words to strike home!
