Chapter 1079: The Reason For Breaking The Engagement
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A few years ago, Zhou Lin’an was already engaged. The two families were originally discussing the wedding date and preparing to get have their children marry. Now, Zhou Lin’an insisted on breaking off the engagement for Qiao Xi’s sake, disregarding his family’s interests.
When such rumors spread, Qiao Xi instantly became a femme fatale in the eyes of everyone. Even if she didn’t do anything, she still became the target of everyone’s condemnation.
At this moment, at Longwan Residential.
Song Shijing reported everything that had happened in the university to Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng listened quietly. After a moment of silence, he asked coldly, “Who the hell is Zhou Lin’an?”
Song Shijing was stunned for a moment before answering, “Young Master Zhou Guanjin’s distant relative.”
The Zhou family?
Gu Zheng curled his lips and instructed casually, “Since it’s the Zhou family’s matter, let Guanjin handle it. As for Madam Zhou, she can’t discipline her son well and even pushed all the responsibility onto Mrs. Gu. Let her know the consequences of offending Mrs. Gu.”
Song Shijing replied, but he was mourning for Madam Zhou. Why did she have to court death?
Moreover, what did Zhou Lin’an’s overseas study and marriage have to do with Young Madam? It was clearly him who did not have the ability. The universities overseas were unwilling to accept this piece of trash. It was also him who did not want to marry the eldest daughter of Hongfeng Corporation, but he just had to push the blame onto a stranger. Moreover, it was Mrs. Gu, whom he had just met once.
Zhou Lin’an was already in his 20s and could not even handle his own private matters well. When he encountered problems, he only knew how to avoid and push the blame. Such a man was too useless!
Even if Zhou Lin’an really liked Mrs. Gu and was willing to give up the marriage and go overseas for her, Mrs. Gu would not like him at all. His actions would only bring trouble to others. Moreover, the person he was pursuing was already married. His confession that he thought was filled with love was just a joke in the end.
At the thought of this, Song Shijing went out and called Zhou Guanjin.
…
The next morning, in Li City University’s campus.
Madam Zhou walked in in her high heels again. She had already heard the rumors in the university. It seemed that many people were criticizing Qiao Xi, so she could not help but be surprised.
However, this was indeed the truth. If it were not for Qiao Xi, how could Lin’an have given up on this marriage?
Actually, the marriage between the two families had already ended yesterday. It was just that the eldest daughter of Hongfeng Corporation had suggested breaking off the engagement first. Madam Zhou naturally would not think that her son was ignorant and incompetent and that was why the other party broke off the engagement. After thinking about it, there was only one reason—
Her son confessed to Qiao Xi in Li City University yesterday, and this matter spread to the ears of the eldest daughter of Hongfeng Corporation. That was why she suggested breaking off the engagement first. In the end, it was Qiao Xi’s fault!
It was this little fox who destroyed a beautiful marriage and her son’s future. Hence, she must make Qiao Xi pay the price!
At this moment, the anger in Madam Zhou’s heart was even stronger. She rushed to the chancellor’s office angrily.
Lu Muxue and her classmates happened to see this scene. A student at the side asked in a low voice, “Why is Madam Zhou here again? She went to the chancellor’s office yesterday and caused a scene. She said that Qiao Xi seduced her son. I don’t think that’s possible! Zhou Lin’an is a little handsome, but Qiao Xi is so beautiful. Moreover, she’s a famous designer and a teacher in the design department. She doesn’t lack money at all. There’s no need for her to suffer by being together with Zhou Lin’an!”
After the calligraphy competition, the students of Class 1 began to admire Qiao Xi. They knew that not only was she good-looking, but she was also talented. She was a true fair, rich, and beautiful woman. They felt that it was impossible for Qiao Xi to seduce a man who was far inferior to her. Moreover, that man had a fiancee.
A trace of scheming flashed past Lu Muxue’s eyes as she casually replied, “That makes sense, but I heard that the Zhou family is in the real estate business. They must be richer than Qiao Xi. Moreover, seeing how angry Madam Zhou is, perhaps…”
At this point, she deliberately paused, then waved her hand. “Sigh! I was just saying it casually. I didn’t mean to badmouth Teacher Qiao. It’s just that there have been some rumors about her in high society. You might not have heard of them.
“Although Madam Zhou has a bad temper, she’s not an unreasonable person. There must be a reason why she’s so angry. Otherwise, why would the dignified Madam Zhou, who has a noble status, keep pestering a university teacher? She even insisted that the university expel her. There must be something else going on.”
