Chapter 127 Don't Expect a Future
Qian Dayou glared at her resentfully: "Behave yourself, it's better not to offend anyone than anything else! Let me make this clear, you're already married, you're not a member of the Qian family anymore, so whatever happens to you has nothing to do with me, I won't protect you!"
"You spent a lot of my mother's money back then, and you think you can get away with it so easily?" Zhuang Qingxiang laughed.
Qian Dayou felt guilty, because the house and the dowry for his current wife were all brought by Zhuang Qingxiang's mother.
"Fine, I'm not talking to you anymore. I just came to remind you that you'd better handle it yourself."
After saying that, Qian Dayou left in a hurry, as if he was afraid that people would find out that he was seeing Zhuang Qingxiang.
Zhuang Qingxiang returned home with a heavy heart. She bumped into Niu Jianzhong and instinctively asked, "Did Factory Director Lu say when he'd be back?"
After asking the question, I suddenly realized how ridiculous I had been.
Lu Congyue is currently in Beijing, and the person calling from Beijing to inquire about her could be anyone, or it could be him.
"Never mind, pretend I didn't ask anything," Zhuang Qingxiang said again before quickly leaving.
Niu Jianzhong looked completely bewildered, got on his bicycle, and left the factory, heading towards the county town.
Director Lu told him to find the police to interrogate Liang Xinzheng and his mother again, which means something big has happened.
Beijing.
Guan Jing held the investigation materials, a cold smile on her face.
But when she saw Lu Sheng, her face was filled with deep worry.
"Old Lu, I had someone investigate that widow from the countryside, and what I found out was truly shocking."
As she spoke, she gave Lu Sheng some medicine and told him to take it first, lest he be angered to death later.
Lu Sheng knew the problem was serious when he saw her like this, but he couldn't imagine what could have happened to a widow in the countryside.
Guan Jing handed him the documents: "Take a look. That widow's background is not simple."
Lu Sheng skimmed through the information, his face turning ashen: "Zhuang? The Zhuang family that fled the country?"
"Yes," Guan Jing sighed, "It's that Zhuang family! That widow is Zhuang's daughter! Cong Yue actually wants to marry her, do you think he's crazy? If he really marries that woman, not only will his career be ruined, but you and our family will also be affected."
Lu Congyue was well aware of the implications of this.
I used to know a guy who held a high position, but because his family had overseas connections that were hard to explain, he was directly investigated and his home was raided.
"That's utterly ridiculous!"
Enraged, Lu Sheng threw the documents all over the floor. "Where's that bastard Lu Congyue? I'm in the hospital here, where has he gone? Call him over here!"
Guan Jing quickly reassured him, "Old Lu, calm down. At least his marriage application was blocked, so the two of them aren't married yet. There's still hope!"
Lu Sheng was so angry that his chest heaved violently, feeling like he was going to be driven to his death by his eldest son.
"Damn it, I should have thrown it up in the mountains to feed the wolves when it was born!" Lu Sheng regretted it more and more as he thought about it.
Guan Jing felt relieved, but her tone remained caring: "Don't say such hurtful things in the future, it'll only hurt feelings! What we need to do now is make this matter clear to him, so he can't act recklessly! Although he's currently entangled with that widow, as long as he marries Kong Yazhen, those rumors won't hurt him."
"You're right, go and bring her here!" Lu Sheng gritted his teeth. "When is Kong Yazhen coming back? Make sure the two kids get their marriage certificate as soon as possible! Put in a lot of effort with the bride price and other things, and try to meet any demands the Kong family has."
"Don't worry, leave this to me. Just be careful with your tone when you talk to Cong Yue, or you'll drive him away again," Guan Jing said with a smile.
As he left the ward, Lu Guoqiang said resentfully, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you so concerned about that person? If something happens to him, so be it. I'd rather it happened to him."
"What do you know?" Guan Jing gently patted him. "I don't mind who he's with, but that woman is absolutely unacceptable. If something happens, it will implicate your father and you, understand?"
Lu Guoqiang scoffed, "So why make him marry Uncle Kong's daughter? Why push such a good opportunity onto him? Aren't you afraid that with Uncle Kong's support, his future will only get brighter? I don't want to see him rise to the top so easily; he has to be trampled under my feet!"
Guan Jing also hoped that her son could surpass the son of that woman in the countryside, but unfortunately, her son was a good-for-nothing...
"How dare you say that? You want to trample him underfoot? At least make something of yourself! You're useless at studying, and you're picky about jobs. If you had just gone to university and gotten a degree, you wouldn't be stuck in this limbo!"
Guan Jing grew increasingly angry as she spoke, and Lu Guoqiang, thoroughly fed up with her words, waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, alright, I'm tired of hearing this. Aren't you tired of it? Forget it, this is none of your business. I have ways to make him look bad. What future… he has no future!"
"What are you going to do?" Guan Jing frowned. "Don't do anything reckless. I've already made all the arrangements. Don't mess things up."
Lu Guoqiang wouldn't listen to her at all, and simply waved her away, telling her to mind her own business.
Guan Jing sighed in anger, but without thinking much of it, she hurried to the guesthouse to find Lu Congyue.
She had to make Lu Congyue marry Kong Yazhen; she would be overjoyed if he could become a father.
If this drags on any longer, Kong Yazhen's belly will get bigger, and things will become more complicated.
Guan Jing had made up her mind, but when she went to the guesthouse, she found out that the person had already left.
Guan Jing was so angry she almost died, so she rushed back to the hospital and told Lu Sheng about it. Lu Sheng was so angry he almost died too.
Guan Jing sighed, "Sigh, he's still the child your ex-wife raised, and he holds a grudge against you. I had to beg him until he came back to see you, but he only took one look and left without even saying goodbye. Unlike our Guoqiang, who's always worried about your health and wants to stay at the hospital with you every day to feel at ease."
"Bring him back! If that doesn't work, let the organization know and transfer him from his post back to his hometown. That way, he'll have nothing to do with that widow from the countryside!" Lu Sheng made a decisive decision.
Guan Jing smiled and said, "What you said is a good idea. If it doesn't work, we'll do it your way."
They secretly began processing Lu Congyue's transfer procedures, and Lu Guoqiang also met with Kong Yazhen and Lin Wei.
Upon seeing the frail Lin Wei, Lu Guoqiang raised an eyebrow with considerable interest.
This girl is so delicate, has Lu Congyue gone mad? He insists on calling her a criminal and even had her arrested.
"You must be Lin Wei. You've been suffering these past few days, haven't you?"
Lin Wei's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face.
Kong Yazhen, impatient with her Lin Daiyu-like demeanor, sneered, "Speak your mind, express your grievances, why are you crying? Will crying clear your name?"
Lin Wei immediately held back her tears and pitifully knelt down before Kong Yazhen and Lin Guoqiang: "Sister Yazhen, Comrade Lu... thank you for saving me..."
