Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1862: Chapter 1864: Losing Face

Chiang Qing walked past Cheng Su, pausing in her steps and turning her head to look.

Their eyes met, and unexpectedly, there was no spark, just boundless indifference.

"Long time no see!" Chiang Qing’s lips slightly curved.

Cheng Su looked at her blandly, without speaking.

"Your son is quite adorable!" Chiang Qing added, a flicker igniting in her eyes as she saw Cheng Su’s face change instantly. She couldn’t help but feel pleased and satisfied, strutting away in her high heels.

Cheng Su watched Chiang Qing’s back, her lips slightly pursed, eyebrows furrowed tightly. What did she mean by those words? She knows she has a son and even said he’s cute?

Upon seeing Chiang Qing, she didn’t feel anything shocking or strange; she viewed her as if seeing a stranger, her heart surprisingly serene.

In her view, Chiang Qing was no different from before. Perhaps she had grown even gloomier; although she appeared radiant, she still exuded an aura of hostility, making people uncomfortable.

But Chiang Qing had mentioned Qi Xiaoqi.

"What? What did she say?" Ning Ge asked as he approached, seeing Cheng Su’s unpleasant expression.

Cheng Su looked at the departing sedan, saying in a deep voice, "She said Xiaoqi is very cute!"

Ning Ge’s face immediately fell upon hearing this.

Did Chiang Qing investigate their lives? Otherwise, she wouldn’t know about Qi Xiaoqi’s existence, much less say something like ’cute.’

Ning Ge looked at the car, saying, "Don’t worry, leave it to me. Let’s go inside and eat."

Cheng Su nodded, and the group entered the restaurant.

Meanwhile, Chiang Qing cautiously observed Shen Rong inside the car, breaking the silence, "Ning Ge and his group are too bullying; they simply don’t take you seriously."

Lin Biao, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced in the rearview mirror and then looked forward.

Though the group just now did publicly humiliate Elder Shen, ultimately, it was all because of her. Otherwise, would Elder Shen need to back down like this?

The old man must be filled with annoyance in his heart, right? Ah, this troublemaker!

Shen Rong was indeed angry; thinking about their casino back home, who would dare disrespect Shen Rong like that? Wherever he went, who didn’t respectfully call him Elder Shen?

But here he was, a seventy-year-old man disgraced by a few young men in their thirties, forced to retreat? If word got back, how could he face anyone? Whether because of Chiang Qing or not, his face was disregarded, and that is the truth; how could he not be angry?

Now, hearing Chiang Qing, Shen Rong recalled her reaction earlier and that woman.

Shen Rong was fully aware of Chiang Qing’s past, pondered a moment, and then asked, "That woman just now, is she Qi Taiguo’s wife?"

Chiang Qing’s smile slightly froze, cautiously asking, "Why are you suddenly asking that?"

"Isn’t she?" Shen Rong looked at her.

Chiang Qing’s heart skipped a beat, she nodded, grinding her teeth, "Yes, that’s her. Actually, because of her, I went through all that; she’s the main culprit."

Shen Rong frowned.

"You don’t know, Ning Ge liked her. To stand up for her, protect her, he schemed to have me sent to a mental hospital. Only later did I..." Chiang Qing gnashed her teeth, recalling the days beyond human endurance, filled with hate.

However, she forgot the saying that where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Why would a decent family provoke you? What connection did you have? Wasn’t it because you had thoughts of trying to drive a wedge between them?

"Do you still think about Qi Taiguo?" Shen Rong glared and asked her.
