Chapter 6: Meeting You at the Horizon Lu Shuang 02
As night fell, the lights in the community came on, and the attention of the passers-by outside was attracted by Jiang Yihong's loud shout.
After Jiang Yihong let go of my hand, I still stood there without moving a step.
Seeing that I was determined to get the money, she became furious.
"Let everyone judge for themselves! How much child support did your parents give you when they divorced? Calculate it yourself. Now your mother has squandered all the money and now comes to us for it. There is no such thing as a bargain in the world!"
I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself calm.
I could actually have a quarrel with Jiang Yihong and expose all the good things she and Lu Jingcheng had done, but if I did that, I would have no money for my tuition.
Perhaps the biggest gain I have gained from being in the society for so long is my patience. Especially when I know I have to keep calm, my endurance is so strong that even I admire myself.
"Your mother used the money to buy brand-name bags, gamble, and drink. You are in this situation because of her own fault. Our family's money was earned through hard work. Why should we let scum like you squander it?"
The more Jiang Yihong scolded, the angrier she became, and her words became more and more unpleasant.
Lu Jingcheng couldn't help but advise her again: "Say less..."
Jiang Yihong was furious when she heard this: "You still have the nerve to protect them, don't you? Now your business has no income at all, and my family relies on me to set up the stall early in the morning and work late at night to make a living. With your attitude now, do you want to use my money to help them? I tell you, don't even think about it!"
Hearing this , Lu Jingcheng had no choice but to shut up. Fate played a trick on him. He built his family with the help of Su Xin, and now that he and Su Xin were divorced, he still had to rely on his wife for support.
"What are you still doing here? Go back to your beloved mother... Haha, like mother, like daughter. They are all scum of society who only know how to ask for money. The less one there is, the less..."
Just when Jiang Yihong wanted to continue cursing, a figure suddenly emerged from the crowd, and then a clear female voice was heard: "Are you talking too much? I know her, she is not the kind of person you say she is."
I never thought that the person who would stand up for me would be Yu Nansheng.
She stood in front of me, like a righteous female warrior as always. Although she was thin and not very strong in fighting, she was very courageous.
In the past, I always disliked her attitude of being a messenger of justice, as if she was standing on the moral high ground and looking down on everyone.
But today I don't feel so disgusted with her.
The words "She is not the kind of person you said" were like a small hammer, hitting my heart and breaking the layer of ice on top.
I was a little moved.
I didn't expect that she would trust me so much. I thought that in her eyes, I was still the person who would do anything for money and use all means to climb up. I really didn't expect that one day she would speak for me.
If she hadn't shown up, I would have been prepared to endure it, prepared to endure it forever, and let Jiang Yihong confuse right and wrong. As long as I could get the money in the end, anything would be fine.
But her words gave me a shock, as if something had revived in my body.
Later I thought about it carefully, and perhaps that thing is called bloodiness.
"Where did you come from, you wild girl? What does our household affairs have to do with you? Go wherever you want, or don't blame me for scolding you too."
Jiang Yihong remained aggressive and refused to give in.
Sometimes I find it strange that she has done so many wrong things but can still be so self-righteous.
Yu Nansheng still stood in front of me and refused to back down: "I won't move aside until I find out the truth of the matter."
Jiang Yihong pushed Yu Nansheng with an annoyed look on her face: "I told you not to meddle in other people's business, don't you understand?"
I supported Yu Nansheng, who was pushed and staggered, and the arrogance that had been suppressed finally emerged.
"Don't touch my friend." I looked at Jiang Yihong and pushed her away from Yu Nansheng, my eyes sharp as a knife, "You and Lu Jingcheng let me see how low people's moral bottom line can be. I have seen many shameless people over the years, but you are the only one as shameless as you."
"What did you say?"
Jiang Yihong was stunned, as if she had not expected my sudden counterattack.
"Lu Jingcheng married my mom and made a fortune of millions with the help of my grandpa's assets. After he established a solid foundation, he cheated on my mom and kicked her out of the house. He used all means to make sure that my mom didn't get a penny except for child support." At this moment, I knew that the smile on my face should be very hideous and my eyes should be particularly vicious, because this was the first time I vented my hatred in front of them over the years. "And Jiang Yihong, you are even more ridiculous. Do you still remember who you were in the beginning? You are the third party who broke up other people's families! It was obviously you who caused our family to fall apart, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet, but you've acted like a dog biting Lu Dongbin."
Jiang Yihong was shocked by what I said. She panicked for a moment: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who is the mistress? Your mother is the one who is pestering Jingcheng..."
" Are you still quibbling? You've done so many bad things, aren't you afraid of retribution?" Hearing her rebuttal, I just sneered, "My mother was driven crazy by you. You occupied the Su family's assets and made my mother crazy. Do you sleep well at night? Don't you have nightmares?"
As if frightened by my expression, Jiang Yihong actually became quiet.
"But you guys have gotten your comeuppance. Lu Jingcheng's business hasn't been going well since the divorce, right? Are your lives getting harder and harder?"
“…”
"Speaking of which, you are the real scum, the real scum."
“…”
"What's the saying? It's not that I don't want to take revenge, it's just that the time has not come yet." At this point, I saw Jiang Yihong's face turned ugly, and I lost interest in continuing to confront them. I just pulled Yu Nansheng's sleeve and said, " Let's go. I don't want the money."
Yu Nansheng looked at me blankly, as if he had not yet recovered from my words, with a complicated expression.
I just smiled, turned and walked into the crowd, then walked through the crowd towards the entrance of the community, leaving all the discussions behind me.
Before leaving, I glanced at Lu Jingcheng. His surprised expression made me laugh.
Although this battle was not particularly well fought, I finally said everything I wanted to say.
