Chapter 920 - Putting On An Act
Chapter 920: Putting On An Act
“Haoting, are you really not going to see the child for the last time?”
Qiu Shaowei stood by the sofa and looked at Jiang Haoting with tears in her eyes. Jiang Haoting was about to lose his temper. Qiu Shaowei had been getting more and more annoying these days. The child was already beyond saving, and she insisted that he go and take a look. One had to know that if he went out and showed himself, how many people would know? How much trouble would it cause him?
“Shaowei, you have to understand. With my identity, I can’t go out as I please. Don’t make things difficult for me.”
“Jiang Haoting, I’m making things difficult for you. What did I make things difficult for you? You didn’t even go to see your child as his father for the last time?”
“I understand that you’re in a bad mood, but you have to know your limits. Not only me, but you also have to go to the hospital less often. It’s inevitable that people will recognize you.”
“So what if I’m recognized? My child is sick and is hospitalized. As a mother, can’t I go and take a look?”
“Alright, stop arguing. Eldest’s wife, listen to Eldest. Wenkang’s body is already in such a state. He’s the one who’s unlucky. As a descendant of the Jiang family, he’s actually so unlucky.”
“Mother, why are you so heartless?”
“How dare you? I think you are delirious.”
“Mother, Shaowei didn’t mean that.”
“That’s what I meant. As the father of the child, have you done anything for the child all these years? No, you only care about your own career and life. When have you ever thought about the child?”
“Sister-in-law, don’t say that. Brother-in-law is the leader of a country. He is concerned about the affairs of the country. Without a country, where would there be a home? Didn’t you enjoy the respect of being the mother of a country? Why are you complaining about Brother-in-law now? I really feel disappointed for uncle.”
Nan Ya interrupted from the side. As soon as she said this, she could clearly feel that Old Madam Jiang and Jiang Haoting were satisfied with her. This was how she knew the bigger picture. Shaowei had not been as sensible as Nan Ya these days. She was really getting more and more muddled.
“Who do you think you are? Do you have the right to interrupt here?”
“She is your younger sister-in-law. What do you think she is? Eldest daughter-in-law, don’t be more and more unruly.”
“I’m unruly? You should be the ones who are unruly. Everyone knows who the father of the child in her stomach is. First, she shamelessly let Second Brother take over, and then she let the stupid Fourth Brother take over. Fourth Brother doesn’t even want his wife and child, but he wants this vixen. You guys have a good plan. Everyone knows who the evil child in her stomach’s father is.”
Pa!
As soon as Qiu Shaowei finished speaking, Old Madam Jiang slapped her across the face.
Qiu Shaowei looked at Old Madam Jiang as if she wanted to eat her up. This old witch had always been stirring up trouble in the Jiang family. She had been involved with her father-in-law for her entire life, and she couldn’t bear to see her children get married happily. This old pervert.
“Mother.”
“Hmph, you hit me? You want me to shut up just because you hit me? It’s not that easy. Jiang Haoting, I want to divorce you. Divorce!”
If it were any other family, the Jiang family would have agreed long ago if Qiu Shaowei had asked for a divorce. However, this was the Jiang family, a political family. They would never allow any flaws in this marriage.
When Qiu Shaowei said this, Old Madam Jiang was a little regretful. Wouldn’t this force her into a corner? Even Nan Ya was a little embarrassed at this moment. She was very smart. She knew that this divorce absolutely couldn’t happen to Jiang Haoting. Even if it was a dead wife, Jiang Haoting wouldn’t be able to do it.
Therefore, even if she was scolded by Qiu Shaowei, she could only sit down obediently and not say anything more.
“Eldest’s wife, I don’t want to hear about the divorce anymore. On account that you’re in a bad mood, I won’t argue with you. You should think about what you did wrong.”
“You won’t argue with me? Hmph, all of you have evil intentions. Jiang Haoting, I’ll end it here today. Divorce, or I’ll leave the Jiang family. Don’t think that I’ll pretend to be in love with you in front of others, hmph!”
“Qiu Shaowei, don’t go too far.”
“I’m going too far? Fine, just take it that I’m going too far. You don’t need me anyway. I’ve already applied to be a visiting professor in the university. Jiang Haoting, don’t forget that I have my own career. I don’t have to rely on you for everything.”
“You... You...”
Jiang Haoting was furious, but Qiu Shaowei didn’t care anymore. She turned around and walked out of the courtyard with her luggage.
The people in the room were deep in thought. Jiang Haoting knew Qiu Shaowei too well. If she really didn’t want to act in front of outsiders, she definitely wouldn’t. He definitely wasn’t willing to get a divorce. However, in order not to force Qiu Shaowei into a corner, he could only swallow his anger. He had no choice. Qiu Shaowei knew too much about him. Moreover, he couldn’t kill her. After all, in China... it was not like there was no position for a country’s mother.
On the contrary, the attention she received was sometimes even greater than his.
Therefore, seeing that Qiu Shaowei was leaving, even Old Madam Jiang was helpless against Qiu Shaowei.
Walking out of the door, Qiu Shaowei wiped away the tears on her face and revealed a strange smile. This scene was really tiring to act.
However, it was also worth it to be able to leave the Jiang family smoothly. Although she couldn’t get a divorce, it wasn’t bad to be able to live a peaceful life in a university. Although there was attention, she still had a few topics under her hands. When the time came, she would just say that she was doing professional research. No one would say anything.
Moreover, she had already told them that Wenkang couldn’t make it. At this moment, the news of his death should have been announced to the public. According to the time, her cousin had already arrived in M Country.
As expected, just as she settled down in the dormitory, the phone rang. Kong Shaoqi had arranged everything and was ready to return in two months. Qiu Shaowei hung up the phone and immediately rushed to the hospital to deal with Jiang Wenkang’s funeral.
Jiang Wenkang had also changed his name to Kong Fusheng.
..
“Jiang Wenkang was successfully sent abroad, right? This Jiang family really knows how to put on an act. Look how Jiang Haoting just showed up at this time.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was also a mother. She really could not understand why some people could be so cruel to their own flesh and blood. Back then, there was Gu Yuehua, and now there was Jiang Haoting. Did these people who specialized in acting not feel tired?
“Everyone knows what Jiang Haoting has done. No one is a fool. Alright, don’t bother about his matters. How are you recovering? Do you want to go shopping with me?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Huang Yueyan who had come to accompany her these days. She was very grateful. She must be afraid that she would let her imagination run wild. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have left the two children behind to accompany her every day.
“Don’t worry. I’m fine. It’s not like the children aren’t coming back. I’m not really going to...”
“Alright, don’t talk nonsense. The children will be treated as going to Black Tornado. Anyway, they can’t contact the outside world while studying in Black Tornado. You don’t know that when I was sent to school, my mother signed a life and death agreement.”
“Ah? There’s such a thing?”
