Lu Cong felt that it was not that simple. He looked at Lu Jiangting to see what he would say.
However, as Fang Qing said, Lu Jiangting really did not dare to tell the truth.

Just like last time, I just endured it.
The incident ended with Fang Qing being beaten by drunk thugs.
Seeing that Lu Jiangting didn't say anything, Lu Cong didn't ask, but just sighed.
Feeling very anxious, he quickly asked Wang Cuilan to bring him his medicine and he took a pill.
There is another thing I want to ask Fang Qing.
Lu Cong saw that Lu Jiangting's face was not right, so he came to interrogate him personally.
"Fang Qing, did you know that Wang Jianjun's father and brother are here?"
Fang Qing shook her head decisively, "I don't know, why did they come? When did they come?"
"Just today, you went out to work, and not long after you left, they came."
"I see. Then...did they say what they were here for?"
"They somehow found out that you were the only one who received Wang Jianjun's death compensation, so they came here to ask you for a share of the money."
Fang Qing: “…”
How did you know? Apart from that bitch Lin Yuyao, who else would say something nosy?
The last time she heard Fu Huaiyi say that they went to Wang Jianjun's house, she felt that something was going to happen. She didn't expect that it would really happen so quickly.
"Yes, there is this money." She began to pretend to be confused, "But isn't this money for me and Chenchen? Why are they asking me for a share?"
Lu Cong: "Did they say it was for you and Chenchen?"
Fang Qing said nothing and looked at Lu Jiangting.
"Jiang Ting, I was so sad at the time, and I didn't understand anything. I remember you helped me with all these procedures."
Lu Jiangting nodded and said, "I did it for you. I gave you all the money when I got it. I didn't know you didn't share it with Jianjun's family."
"You didn't say you would share it with them."
Lu Cong said angrily, "Hey, you're blaming Jiang Ting now, right?"
Fang Qing said aggrievedly: "I don't mean to blame him. He gave it to me at that time, and I thought it was mine. I didn't know that I had to share it with Jianjun's family."
"I think you are just pretending. You want to keep the money for yourself."
"I really wasn't. I really didn't know I had to share it with them."
"Okay, okay, whatever you think." He had limited mental strength and was too lazy to argue with her.
"Now they come to you and want to share the money. What are you going to do?"
Fang Qing said in panic, "What should I do? I have no money left. I used all my money to buy a storefront, and I used the money from the storefront to buy a house. Now I have no money left."
The family didn't talk.
I had expected Fang Qing to say that.
Fang Qing looked at Lu Jiangting and said, "Jiangting, please help me."
Lu Jiangting sneered, "I help you? Don't you know how much money I have? How can I help you?"
"This... you don't have it, but your colleagues do. You can borrow it from them for a while."
"Haha, did the money come from the wind? Can you lend it to me just like that?"
Fang Qing: “…”
"Fang Qing, I've caused too many messes for you. I'm telling you, from now on, whether you get detained for not being able to control your mouth, or do something unconscionable, I will no longer help you clean up the mess."
Fang Qing looked at him palely.
Lu Jiangting continued, "If they want to ask you for money, you should handle it yourself. It's none of my business."
After that, he picked up his coat again and said to Lu Cong and Wang Cuilan, "Dad, Mom, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well here tonight. I'm going back to the dormitory to sleep."
Seeing that his complexion looked better and it didn't look like anything was going to happen, Lu Cong nodded in agreement.
"Okay, it's getting late now, so be careful on the road."
"good."
Wang Cuilan added, "Jiang Ting, if you see a group of drunk people, stay away from them. They don't know what's going on when they're drunk."
Lu Jiangting felt as if he was stabbed in the heart. He looked at his elderly parents and forced himself to endure it.
"Mom, I understand."
As soon as Lu Jiangting left, Fang Qing chased after him.
The alley was too narrow to ride a bike, so he had to push the bike onto the main road.
When he reached the main road, Fang Qing rushed over and grabbed his handlebars tightly, saying, "Jiang Ting, I didn't tell the truth just now. I... I was raped by a gangster, I..."
"That's enough." Lu Jiangting scolded her harshly, "Do you think it's an honorable thing?"
Fang Qing cried and shook her head.
"I know I'm sorry for you, but I don't want to. I... I wanted to call the police, but it was too dark and I couldn't see their faces clearly. And... and I was afraid that this matter would get out and Chenchen would be criticized. It doesn't matter what happens to me, I can even die, I'm just worried about Chenchen. He already has no father, he can't be without a mother."
Lu Jiangting pushed her away coldly and said calmly, "This money is about 3,000 yuan. With the donations from your comrades, you should have more than 5,000 yuan, right?"
Fang Qing didn't know why he suddenly asked this and nodded blankly.
"Okay, the total is more than 5,000 yuan, then why did you not have enough money to buy the storefront later?"
Fang Qing, "In those one or two years, Chenchen and I still had to eat and drink. We lived in the city and needed money to buy everything."
Lu Jiangting: "You and Chenchen have subsidies, and I also sent you living expenses. Don't say that this amount of money is not enough for you to spend. That's just a small town. I don't believe that the living expenses are more expensive than here."
Fang Qing opened her mouth, unable to speak.
"So where's the money?"
"I..." she stammered.
Lu Jiangting said, "You don't lack money, do you? You found the storefront, and you set the price, so of course the change is enough. You did it on purpose just to test me, or to destroy me and Yuyao."
Fang Qing shook her head, "No, it's not."
He didn't believe a word she said now.
Lu Jiangting said, "The difference of more than one thousand yuan is just right for sharing with the Wang family, so let go."
Fang Qing shook her head and held her hands tighter, "Jiang Ting, I didn't lie to you, I really have no money. That money... Well, let me tell you, that money was taken by my parents. Originally, they agreed to let me marry Jianjun because they saw that Jianjun had a promising future. They wanted to rely on me and let Jianjun help my brothers. But no one expected that Jianjun would sacrifice himself.
When they saw that they didn't get any benefits, they planned to send Chenchen to his grandfather and then marry me off in exchange for a dowry. They found me a single man in his forties from a poor mountain village, who was willing to pay me five hundred yuan. In order to redeem myself, they extorted more than a thousand yuan from me.
I told them that the compensation for Jianjun was just over a thousand yuan, and I gave it all to them, and then severed ties with them. This price difference does exist, and I would have used it to break off the relationship long ago. Otherwise, why do you think they never came to see me once in all these years? "
Everything she said was so genuine, including what she said about being beaten up and raped by thugs. Combined with the scars on her body, it all seemed to be true.
