Chapter 161: We are no longer family
Meeting those calm and gentle dark eyes, Sang Qian's gaze held a question:
"Did you do the deed of Zhou Yunshuang marrying Boss Chen?"
Jin Changyu's eyes widened for a moment. "No."
Sang Qian asked suspiciously, "This has absolutely nothing to do with you?"
Jin Changyu stood still, still shielding her from the scorching sun. "...It's not like there's none at all."
Sang Qian looked up at him, "?"
“I asked Zhou Kangguang if he had instructed Zhou Yunshuang to attempt to harm my wife and children, and he said no.”
Jin Changyu said, "I asked him to prove it."
This means that he has to choose between the Zhou family and Zhou Yunshuang.
If Zhou Kangguang doesn't deal with Zhou Yunshuang, it's tantamount to admitting that he instructed the matter, which means he's going against the Jin family and Jin Changyu.
Zhou Kangguang was well aware of the consequences of offending the head of the Jin family.
“Zhou Kangguang is a man who puts profit first. Between the Zhou family and Zhou Yunshuang, he chose to give up Zhou Yunshuang.”
"So, to prove his choice to you, he married Zhou Yunshuang off to that perverted Boss Chen?"
“Zhou Wenyi was involved in this,” Jin Changyu said. “She herself was having a bad marriage, so how could she possibly expect Zhou Yunshuang’s marriage to be smooth?”
Zhou Kangguang needed an opportunity to give Jin Changyu a chance to prove himself, so he naturally agreed to Zhou Wenyi's suggestion.
In other words, Zhou Yunshuang's current predicament is entirely the result of her father and sister's joint machinations.
Seeing that Sang Qian remained silent for a long time after listening, Jin Changyu felt a little flustered.
Will Qianqian think he's too vicious and ruthless?
After all, Zhou Kangguang was forced to be so ruthless towards Zhou Yunshuang because of the pressure he was under.
"Qianqian, you have to believe me."
He sat down next to her immediately. "Zhou Yunshuang's marriage to Boss Chen was really not at my behest."
“I wanted to teach her a lesson, and I really didn’t want her to have an easy time, but I wouldn’t stoop so low as to abuse a woman in this way.”
Sang Qian looked at the man who was eagerly explaining and clarifying himself, and said, "Yes, I know."
Jin Changyu watched her reaction closely. "Then... will you think I'm vicious?"
She initially liked him because of his good character. If she now thinks he is of low character, she probably won't like him anymore.
"?"
Sang Qian didn't know why he would ask such a question.
Although Zhou Yunshuang is in a terrible situation now, it is ultimately her own fault.
Two years ago, if she hadn't used improper means to ruin her own sister's marriage and take it for herself, Zhou Wenyi wouldn't have retaliated against her.
Two years later, even though she knows that Jin Changyu has married someone else, she is still unwilling to give up and is trying to use her methods to break up Jin Changyu's marriage so that she can take advantage of the situation.
As a result, he angered Jin Changyu, which led him to his own demise.
“Didn’t you say this wasn’t your intention?” Sang Qian looked at Jin Changyu. “Then how can you say you’re malicious?”
Upon hearing this, Jin Changyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, his image was saved.
Suddenly remembering something, his eyes sharpened again. "How do you know about this? Is Zhou Yunshuang bothering you again?"
She dares to do it?
“No.” Sang Qian shook her head. “Luo Luo told me.”
"Actually, you don't need to hide it from me. You can tell me the truth."
Jin Changyu: "I just... don't want these bad things to affect your mood."
That Mr. Chen is an extremely perverted person in that area, and Zhou Yunshuang's current miserable life...
It's actually even more serious than the rumors suggest.
He didn't want Sang Qian to hear these sordid things.
So as not to offend her ears.
He glanced at Sang Qian and said softly, "But there is something else I really need to tell you."
"What's up?"
"In order to receive a lighter sentence, Xu Manrong voluntarily confessed to several illegal and criminal acts committed by Sang Zhiming and Zhang Shuli. With multiple crimes combined, Sang Zhiming will face at least ten years in prison. He is now filled with remorse and regrets having wronged you for so many years because of such an ungrateful wretch."
“Now all his assets have been confiscated. The Sang family villa was saved because it was registered under his and your mother’s names. He said that this house should belong to you and that he is leaving it to you as his only compensation to you as a father.”
A hint of mockery flashed in Sang Qian's eyes.
Back when she was still a minor, Sang Zhiming had clearly told her that the villa belonged to Sang Yulong.
Only his son is eligible to inherit his property.
"He originally wanted to confess to you in person, but you refused to meet with him several times. In the end, he asked me to give you this letter of apology."
Jin Changyu took a letter out of his pocket and handed it to her, observing her expression.
He said he still hoped you could meet with him so he could apologize to you in person.
Jin Changyu scoffed at Sang Zhiming's apology and looked down on the villa.
But these things belong to her, and whether she wants them or not should be her decision.
He couldn't refuse on her behalf without her consent.
Sang Qian glanced coldly at the letter, but didn't reach out to take it. She simply said indifferently, "Throw it in the trash."
"good."
Without a second's hesitation, Jin Changyu crumpled the envelope into a ball and tossed it into the nearby trash can.
After throwing it away, he turned back to look at Sang Qian, "What do you plan to do with that villa?"
“Since my mother has a share, of course I want it back,” Sang Qian said. “Once Attorney Zhang has completed the property paperwork, we’ll put it up for sale.”
"You're planning to sell it?"
"Yes, let's donate the money from selling the house to those in need."
It's better than letting a few people benefit from it.
"Okay, I'll handle this."
Sang Qian nodded and said politely, "Thank you for your trouble."
Jin Changyu looked at her, feeling a pang of disappointment, but pretended not to notice her aloofness. He reached out and took her hand, saying, "Don't be sad or upset over these people. I will always be your family. I will always be by your side and take good care of you and the child."
Sang Qian subtly dodged his hand, saying, "I won't be saddened or upset by these people."
Otherwise, she wouldn't have avoided even glancing at Sang Zhiming.
Despite his repeated requests to meet her.
Whether he wanted her help because of his current situation, was feigning reconciliation, or was genuinely remorseful, it doesn't matter.
She didn't care and couldn't be bothered to pay attention.
They certainly won't offer any help.
"As for me and the children, we don't need your care."
"Shallowly..."
"Jin Changyu".
Sang Qian looked at him very seriously and said, word by word,
"We are no longer family."
Upon hearing this, Jin Changyu's eyes trembled slightly. Before he could speak, he heard the woman say:
"I hope this is our consensus."
