Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 218: She Would Never Steal Another Woman’s Man
Xu Qinghuan was dumbfounded.
Lu Mingqiu’s fall was like a flash of lightning, unexpected to everyone, as she had drained all energies from her body. She had never done something so embarrassing in her life, but felt it was worth it to catch this handsome, aloof man.
She was quick, but Jiang Xingye was quicker, lifting Xu Qinghuan and swiftly dodging to the side. A loud thud was heard as Lu Mingqiu landed heavily on the ground, with half her face hitting the floor, feeling as though her cheekbone had fractured.
With a howl of pain, Lu Mingqiu involuntarily bounced on the ground a couple of times from her hips, both in pain and humiliation, leading her to start sobbing.
Fan Anjie was stunned for a long time before hurriedly rushing over to help Lu Mingqiu who had fallen. Seeing her cheek turn from red to purple, she couldn’t help but feel a tight grip of anxiety.
"Mingqiu, are you okay?"
"Pain, my foot hurts!" Lu Mingqiu slightly moved her left foot, seeing a large swelling on her ankle that made it immobile, causing her to cry even louder.
Seeing she had indeed twisted her ankle, Fan Anjie was also upset but didn’t care about much else and stood up to spray at Jiang Xingye, "Do you have any spirit of helping others? When you see someone fall right before you, what happens if you help them?"
Jiang Xingye glanced coldly at Lu Mingqiu’s ankle, without a shred of remorse, "Ha, heels are meant for tripping, wish granted, serves you right!"
Xu Qinghuan rubbed her forehead, this man, turned out to be a typical iron-hearted straight man!
Fan Anjie stomped her foot in anger, "Heels, do you recognize high heels?"
"Don’t recognize! Don’t know! Get lost!"
Jiang Xingye coldly dropped a sentence, barely wrapping an arm around Xu Qinghuan’s shoulder before striding inside.
Xu Qinghuan glanced at the woman on the ground, Mingqiu? Could it be Lu Mingqiu? Judging by the outfit, Xu Qinghuan was quite suspicious.
She thought for a moment, walked forward, bent down, and asked, "Are you Lu Mingqiu? Someone from the Lu Family?"
After the intense pain subsided, Lu Mingqiu finally stopped crying, wiped the tears from her face, "Yes, I am from the Lu Family, who are you?"
Having gotten the answer, Xu Qinghuan then ignored her.
Jiang Xingye, however, declared authority, "She is my fiancée, are all the women from the Lu Family this shameless?"
Xu Qinghuan couldn’t help but chuckle, tugged at him, "Let’s go!"
Lu Mingqiu’s face turned pale, she understood the implication of Jiang Xingye’s words, he actually saw her as similar to Song Wanlin.
Instantly, she felt unworthy.
"She knows me, she knows my name, how does she know me! Who are they?" Lu Mingqiu felt disoriented.
Fan Anjie also found the situation a bit eerie, yesterday when they saw Jiang, the woman was clearly not present.
She figured her friend still hadn’t given up, "How about, go and ask?"
Lu Mingqiu looked over at the two, Jiang Xingye’s cold-as-ice face and mocking eyes directly deterred her, she shook her head, "Better not!"
Where does she have any dignity left?
She wasn’t blind, she’d long seen that the man and the woman were a couple, when he looked at others his eyes seemed like they were laced with ice shards, but when he looked at the woman, his eyes had a gentle light, like water softly radiating, that love enveloped the woman completely.
She should have known better, she was bewitched!
She didn’t want to continue exposing herself to even more humiliation!
She wasn’t like that woman, who could shamelessly and blatantly steal someone else’s man.
Her impulsiveness resulted from a day and night of thought, seeing him suddenly stirred her passion.
She regretted it early on.
Fan Anjie supported Lu Mingqiu as she limped away, "Such a tasteless man, forget it, consider it a lesson learned, best stay far away from heartless men like him."
Lu Mingqiu thought to herself, he actually isn’t heartless, his heart is just devoted to someone, people like this aren’t necessarily bad, their goodness is rare, only given to those they care about.
"Alright, don’t be mad anymore, didn’t you see they already have someone, their love is so deep, really nice!" Said Lu Mingqiu enviously.
Fan Anjie felt sorry for her friend, "Yes, truly a shame! But, I think the man’s family status may also not be that good, even if you like him very much, not sure if your family would agree, best to let go sooner rather than later."
Lu Mingqiu agreed with a sound, after receiving medication at the hospital, Fan Anjie then drove her home.
Only Song Wanlin was home, talking on the phone, his face was pale as he saw her return, glanced once with disdain flashing through his eyes, Lu Mingqiu ignored him, heading straight upstairs.
"Is that what he said? Haha, he’s just Jiang Family’s castoff, what right does he have to negotiate with me?" But Song Wanlin’s tone soon softened, "Is that really what he said?"
Who knew what the other party said, making Song Wanlin silent for a long time.
Lu Mingqiu paused for a while at the stair turn, Song Wanlin noticed her, covered the receiver and sharply asked, "What are you doing?"
Lu Mingqiu didn’t say a word, pressed her lips, leaned against the railing, and limped upstairs.
Song Wanlin waited until she entered her room before speaking to old Zhang on the other end, "That educated youth, is he dead?"
"Not dead, saved by Xu Qinghuan, and that’s why there were troubles." Old Zhang replied.
"You just said, an educated youth named Zhou Chang’an was a witness?" Song Wanlin said, "Go find them, have them retract their testimony."
"This won’t work anymore, I approached them, but they refused, and once I came, unknowingly, I got targeted, trying again would alert the snake." Zhu Zhang explained.
Song Wanlin pondered for a while, "Anyway, since they’re not dead, tell Xu Hongtu to take the blame for this, saying it was all his doing, once the storm passes, I’ll figure out something."
"Okay!"
"But before that, have Jiang Chengxu explain everything, if he conceals anything, I’ll make him regret coming out from there."
After hanging up, Song Wanlin sat beside the coffee table for a long time. She couldn’t believe someone was watching her back then, that evidence revealed now, although proving they violated military marriage principles, but given Lu Family’s status today, what could it actually do to them?
Moreover, Xu Jing’an was already dead!
Even if he still had comrades willing to stand up for justice for him, the Lu Family wasn’t a push-over, Lu Old Master was still alive, Lu Family’s future depended on Lu Ranglian, it wouldn’t allow any blemish on Lu Ranglian’s record.
But Song Wanlin knew well, once this incident became known worldwide, all blame and filth would ultimately fall upon her.
It was she who shamefully, without regard for decency, seduced Lu Ranglian.
Her past would also be exposed to the world, all her dignity torn away, whatever fate awaited her was unimaginable.
Song Wanlin didn’t even have the courage to tell Lu Ranglian about this, she could only swallow this cup of bitter wine alone that was brewed by both of them.
A little past five, the furniture store department was closing, Xu Qinghuan and Jiang Xingye thanked and bid farewell to the supervisor in charge before walking out of the department.
A middle-aged, unremarkably-looking man had been waiting under the camphor tree at the entrance for quite a while. Seeing the two come hurriedly, he smiled and said, "Hello, Comrade Xu, I am someone from Jiang Family elder’s side, the old master heard you’ve come to Yan City, and wants to meet you, please follow me!"
After speaking, he walked ahead, after a few steps, realizing the people didn’t follow along, turned back, seeing Xu Qinghuan still standing on the steps, looking at him with a semi-smile.
