One problem and multiple families worried, all in Beijing, Jiang Conghe was so angry he almost smashed the phone; outrageous, too outrageous!
What did this Qi Taiguo think he was? Did he even take the Chiang Family into consideration at all? How dared he bully the Chiang Family members so blatantly?
Too much for him! Just a minor company commander, and he really thinks I have no way to deal with him, that I can’t punish him, huh?
"Aunt Zhang." Jiang Conghe shouted towards the dining room.
"Coming." The servant of the Chiang Family hurried over.
"Go, have Xiao Jin book me a train ticket, and pack two sets of clothes for me," Jiang Conghe commanded angrily.
"Yes."
As Jiang Conghe sat back down, his eyebrows furrowed again thinking about what Xiao Tian had just said.
His wife caused Qi Taiguo’s wife to have a miscarriage, which is indeed a problem. She still has that violent temper, but it’s not really much of an issue, miscarriage or no miscarriage. Besides, who said it was Lu Shufen who pushed her? It’s possible she fell on her own!
Jiang Conghe quickly dismissed this trivial matter from his mind, instead growing more worried about his daughter’s condition.
From his son’s tone, his daughter’s situation seemed truly bad, especially after Qi Taiguo’s attack.
This damned Qi Taiguo should be banished to the Great Northwest!
The more Jiang Conghe thought about it, the less reassured he felt, so he picked up the phone again and dialed a number, "Hello, Doctor Zhong, it’s me, yes, Commander Chiang..."
...
In Qing City, after hearing what her son said, Lu Shufen felt settled and much bolder, declaring, "Then we’ll just wait and see if we don’t skin that Qi Taiguo and Cheng Su alive, I won’t be named Lu!"
How dared he hit her and treat Qingqing like that without inquiring about the background of their family!
Oh, her tooth.
Lu Shufen picked up the mirror again, and seeing the missing tooth near the corner of her mouth made the pain seem to resurface, along with the swollen, bruised cheek that appeared so striking.
"This damned Qi Taiguo." Lu Shufen cursed, miscarriage served them right, she wished never to bear a child for generations.
"Mom..." Chiang Tian poked Lu Shufen’s arm and gestured with his mouth towards the window.
Turning her attention there, Lu Shufen saw Chiang Qing hugging her knees, motionless, gazing out of the window, which made her heart skip a beat.
Ever since Qi Taiguo had left, she’d been like this.
This calamity!
Setting down the mirror, Lu Shufen walked over and called softly, "Qingqing, what are you thinking about?"
"I’m wondering why he doesn’t want me!" Chiang Qing answered absentmindedly, "He isn’t like this, he shouldn’t be so cruel, it shouldn’t be like this!"
Lu Shufen felt a surge of anger to the point of vomiting blood, grinding her teeth she said, "Have you lost your mind? It has come to this and you still can’t give up? He wants your life, do you really want to die at his hand before you’ll be satisfied?"
Disappointment, heartbreak, Lu Shufen was truly too heartbroken. Almost losing her life didn’t seem to bring her daughter to a realization.
"He wants my life!" Chiang Qing murmured the phrase before suddenly turning pale, she spun around and glared at Lu Shufen, screaming shrilly, "He wasn’t originally like this, it’s all because of you, all because you had to meddle! If you hadn’t gone to see Cheng Su, would such a thing have happened? It’s all your fault, good intentions, bad outcomes!"
Lu Shufen was so stunned by the scolding that she faced her daughter’s hateful eyes and shivered, taking two steps back, a wave of desolation washing over her.
She came to this wretched place for the sake of her daughter, and yet her daughter blamed her for doing wrong?
This daughter was utterly deluded. No, she was profoundly ill. This wouldn’t do, she had to be taken back for treatment, or else, she really was going to lose her daughter!
