Chapter 706: Chapter 706: How Could the Lin Family Let This Go
Jiang Rufang and Zhang Xiaolu come from the same town, so they maintain a polite but not too close relationship as old acquaintances.
Later, Zhang Xiaolu couldn’t stand the ridicule and sarcasm from everyone. Not long after, she pulled some strings and transferred out of the cultural troupe to work at the Housing Authority, which was quite an achievement.
Now, Jiang Jingya has become the Regimental Commander of the cultural troupe, Jiang Rufang is in charge of the dance team, and Qiao Yulan is responsible for the singing team. Ever since Zhang Xiaolu left, the three of them returned to their previous relationship.
It hasn’t changed over all these years.
Qiao Yulan noticed that Jiang Rufang was still playing coy: "Just say it directly, why make us guess?"
Jiang Rufang pinched her earlobe, a habit she resorts to whenever she feels guilty.
Jiang Jingya and Qiao Yulan naturally noticed this.
Qiao Yulan knew what she was thinking: "Alright, stop keeping us in suspense, let me tell you the truth, Jingya and I ran into Zhang Xiaolu on our way back. For some crazy reason, she was lying in the middle of the road."
Jiang Rufang was stunned: "She wouldn’t do anything rash, would she?"
Qiao Yulan rolled her eyes: "Why don’t you tell us what happened?"
Jiang Rufang then recounted everything that happened at the wedding feast, word for word: "That’s what happened?"
Qiao Yulan slapped the table and stood up: "Zhang Xiaolu schemed for so long, and this is the result? I actually feel a bit sorry for her son, is she even a real mother?"
Seeing Qiao Yulan’s gloating expression, Jiang Jingya thought to herself: Thankfully, the matter between Huo Jiayuan and Du Shujian isn’t public yet, or who knows how rumors would spread?
Seeing the two didn’t respond, Qiao Yulan whispered: "Do you know? Initially, Zhang Xiaolu wanted her son to marry a girl from the Lin Family, but somehow she changed her mind later and allied with the Gong Family instead.
Now with this incident, I bet the Lin Family is gloating too, aren’t they?"
Jiang Jingya truly didn’t know about this: "Which Lin Family?"
Qiao Yulan laughed: "The Lin Family from the Finance Department."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingya understood which family it was. Indeed, the Lin Family has a daughter, and Jiang Jingya had met the girl, which further tainted Du Shujian’s image in her mind.
She suddenly recalled the time her daughter came home with a dark face, mentioning Lin Nana, and remembered what her daughter said that day, couldn’t help but feel grateful for Lin Nana’s timely appearance. Otherwise, who knows when her silly daughter would come to her senses.
Jiang Rufang’s expression was complicated: "So that’s it. I remember running into Zhang Xiaolu and that Lin Nana several times shopping at the Department Store."
Thinking of this, she worriedly said: "If the Lin Family didn’t fancy Zhang Xiaolu’s son, that’s one thing, but if Zhang Xiaolu chose the Gong Family over them, the Lin Family wouldn’t let it slide, would they?"
Jiang Rufang realized the truth, Gong Father was taken away from the wedding by the police, and wasn’t it the Lin Family’s doing to stand up for their daughter? Although the Lin Family isn’t as prominent as the Gong Family, they are not ones to be bullied, and they pamper Lin Nana the most.
Moreover, on the Gong Family’s side, after Gong Father was taken by the police, Gong Family’s relatives immediately followed, trying all means to get Gong Father out, but the evidence was already laid out, and with many parties already informed, this was clearly an unusual matter. Who would dare risk their career?
Once the Gong Family realized, they didn’t dare to interfere further, fearing that Gong Father’s situation would implicate them as well; everyone was busy covering their tracks.
In no time, the Gong Family became the target of public criticism. The red festive characters on the wall made Gong Mother feel a great sense of irony.
