Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me-Chapter 843: V684: Love Is Across Mountains and Rivers, Love Is a Lifelong Obsession [31]_2
How much?
Feng Chengyue was momentarily stunned. When the hospital asked her for her bank account to deposit her salary, she casually provided a card number, which was probably set up by her brother when she went to college. Because she often spent a couple hundred thousand at once when she went shopping, her brother figured she might buy a car on a whim, so the balance in the account was over eight million.
However, her hospital salary was only in the thousands, with the most she ever made in a month, including bonuses, being over ten thousand. It barely registered as a fraction of her account balance.
How could she know how much she could earn in a month...
She was speechless, and the wife of Chen Jiu seemed even more convinced of something.
She clicked her tongue angrily, "See? What did I say?! Isn’t she just a gold-digger living off Qiu Mingyan, bleeding him like a leech? I don’t know what kind of bad luck the Qiu Family has; they finally managed to get out of this mountain village, make some money, only to have it drained by a city woman!"
Chen Jiu’s wife kept sighing, and soon, Aunt Chen’s words joined in, escalating the situation further.
"Yeah, just look at the white blouse she’s wearing, and that black skirt... This must be the best clothing Mingxin bought in the county town before. Mingxin couldn’t bear to wear it all these years, and as soon as Cheng Yue arrived, Qiu Mingyan actually let her dress like this every day!"
So, it was a duet between the two women, along with Chen Ah Sheng...
Soon, the idle villagers were drawn by the commotion, gathering at the Qiu Family’s place, and the verbal assault reached its peak!
Everyone stood around, more entertained by the fuss than concerned, criticizing Feng Chengyue.
Their remarks weren’t all harsh and had a mix of good and bad, but every one implied she was shamelessly clinging to Qiu Mingyan, trying to make him spend money on her.
They could tolerate anything, except having such a poor girlfriend leech off Qiu Mingyan’s money.
Feng Chengyue’s attempts to defend herself were dismissed as quibbling. If she was really wealthy, would she even look at a village like theirs? Stay in it? No way; they claimed she was here only to drain Qiu Mingyan dry.
Feng Chengyue had never been so angry that she cried, but that day, her eyes reddened with tears, her arms trembling as she struggled for words.
But in this world, the most easily swayed are people’s hearts, and the most easily manipulated are the foolish.
As emotions escalated, the question became—why keep her here? Why not send her away? In any case, she’s not one of their own, and even if she married into the village through Qiu Mingyan, they wouldn’t accept her.
It just so happened that Qiu Mingyan wasn’t home today, so why not send her away?
This enraged Feng Chengyue, but what could she say? The words "I won’t leave! Who are you to make me leave? Who are you to Qiu Mingyan..." were barely out.
Before a few strong women, including Aunt Chen, started pulling and dragging her towards a borrowed tricycle.
Seeing this, Qiu Mingxin and Qiu Mingjun rushed over, pale-faced, trying to intervene.
"What are you doing? She’s my brother’s friend; he hasn’t agreed!"
But it was to no avail. In the pushing and shoving, several women took the opportunity to pinch her painfully on her waist and arms, making Feng Chengyue turn pale.
Then one even pushed Qiu Mingjun aside, saying, "Mingjun, what are you doing? Has the Qiu Family forgotten the promise to the Mai Family, to marry Mai Manxiang? You’re not trying to break it, are you?"
"Exactly! And recently, didn’t she run away in the middle of the night over a tantrum, making the whole village look for her? I say, why would our village want such a capricious woman? Didn’t she want to leave? Let her go! This is our village. We decide here. Let those outside trying to ingratiate leave far away."
The whole scene escalated into a spectacle of moral righteousness and justice.
Village leader Mai Shilong remained silent, watching with a cold smile, a pipe in his mouth.
Seeing the cold, calculating look in his eyes, Feng Chengyue realized that today’s events were premeditated.
Tears of grievance welled up in her eyes.
But what could she do? It was just half-past ten, and no matter what, Qiu Mingyan wouldn’t return in time; besides, he didn’t even know.
At that moment, Feng Chengyue remembered her phone and recalled that her third sister-in-law had said, if anything serious happened, to call her. She even guaranteed that even if her third brother disagreed, she would use the child in her belly to make him comply.
But Feng wasn’t even allowed to go inside to get her belongings.
One quick-witted villager’s wife snatched the phone from her, hiding it proudly, saying, "What? Used to spending Qiu Mingyan’s money, and still want to take something on your way out? I’m telling you, don’t even think about it! This phone will be kept as the village’s public phone!"
Feng Chengyue’s heart was utterly devastated as she looked at Mai Manxiang in the crowd, stubbornly holding back tears.
The result was her being bundled along with her clothes and belongings, forcibly pushed towards the electric tricycle prepared at the village entrance.
Time... was of the essence.
Feng Chengyue... in utter despair.
However, at that moment, accompanied by the sound of honking, a line of sleek luxury cars came turning onto the road to Chen Family Village.
On the muddy mountain road, a dozen Land Rovers climbed effortlessly with a STARTECH Range Rover flanked in the middle, its glossy black color like the most luminous light of the night, exuding luxury and elegance as they approached...
