Chapter 202 A Dying Struggle



The engagement banquet that just passed can be considered a warning to Bee Butterfly Tea Lotus.

The next day, newspapers, media outlets, and the internet were filled with gossip about the engagement banquet of the Xia family's daughter.

The media lauded the newlyweds while mocking those who were too arrogant to stand out.

Even though Jiang Xuanxuan was already down on her luck, she saw the news. But now, no matter how unhappy she was, she could no longer stir up any trouble.

Relying on her youth, Wang Xiuzhen often squandered the money she earned with those wealthy people. For the first time, she felt that her mother was really dragging her down!

They could no longer afford hotels, and their cheap rental apartment was incredibly dirty and messy because both of them were pampered girls who couldn't tidy up.

Seeing this environment, Jiang Xuanxuan was even less willing to go home. She was wasting her youthful beauty by spending all her time outside.

Because of Wang Xiuzhen's extravagance, she has recently stopped sending her money, which implies that she is leaving this mother to fend for herself in the rented house.

Without money to go to beauty salons and having almost used up her cosmetics, and without Jiang Xuanxuan giving her money to buy more, Wang Xiuzhen looked very old.

She cried and made a scene with her daughter several times, but was turned away at the door, and was told, "If I had known this would happen, why couldn't I control myself and cheated on Jiang Jucai? I'm in this state because of you! You still want money from me? You have hands and feet, can't you earn it yourself?"

When she was truly destitute, Wang Xiuzhen had no choice but to go out and find odd jobs. Once a VIP regular at the beauty salon, she's now reduced to handing out flyers outside!

Jiang Jucai was sentenced to seven years in prison, and all her assets were confiscated to pay off her debts. Not only did she not receive any benefits, but the Wang family also severed ties with her because of the scandal.

At her sixties, an age when she should be retired and enjoying a peaceful life, she spends her days alone in the sun and rain, struggling to pay a few hundred yuan for rent and living expenses.

Her husband was heartless and unloving, her daughter was unfilial, and her family disowned her. Her life was truly a failure!

In a daze, she saw a container truck approaching on the road, and in a daze, she rushed into the middle of the road... The flyers fluttered like silver paper, telling the story of her desolate remaining life...

Even the most hateful person has a pitiable side. Jiang Xuanxuan hastily settled her funeral arrangements. After cremation, she bought an urn and never cared about it again.

Moreover, with Wang Xiuzhen dead, she was free from burdens and entanglements, and continued to move among those wealthy businessmen.

As for Xia Junhu, he struggled desperately during his imprisonment, refusing to confess.

Just as Yang Yajing guessed, he spent a lot of money hiring a lawyer to help him turn the tables, and even made use of his disability.

Dissatisfied with the outcome of the first trial, he appealed to the second trial. When he ran out of money, he started selling stocks, all in an attempt to escape punishment.

But each time, just when he thought that all the evidence could be found to be flawed and invalidated by the lawyers he hired, new evidence would emerge.

"Damn it! Who's messing with me?" Xia Junhu roared like a madman.

After failing the second trial, Xia Junhu's equity stake had already been reduced by 80-90%.

He didn't want to continue spending money; at least he wanted to save up for retirement and to make a comeback.

But if he goes to jail, what's the point of keeping all this money?

With a heavy heart, he sold off his last remaining shares, striving to escape the shell company in the third trial.

But now that he had no money and no power, those witnesses who were originally afraid of trouble no longer had any scruples.

Encouraged by Kui Wenchang's witty remarks, one by one they came forward to testify.

This final trial was like the last stone that broke Xia Junhu's composure. When the verdict was handed down, he went completely mad in court!

Thinking he was faking madness, the judge ignored him and had him imprisoned.

It wasn't until a week later, when the dying Xia Junhu was carried out of his cell by prison guards and sent to the ICU, that the judge summoned people from the psychiatric evaluation department.

Xia Junhu has indeed gone mad, completely and utterly mad!

In prison, if you kill someone yourself, people will be wary. But someone like Xia Junhu, who hires a hitman, will be looked down upon. Especially someone who hires someone to kill a premature infant in an incubator!

Human society is very realistic. Anyone who lays a hand on an infant, whether they have a normal sense of right and wrong or are a serious criminal in prison, is committing a despicable act.

So Xia Junhu was beaten countless times in just one week. The prison guards only released him when they saw that he was really in bad shape.

Xia Junhu spent most of his later life in a mental hospital. Upon receiving the news, Xia Changlong signed the papers, glanced at Xia Junhu through the small window, and suddenly felt a sense of relief.

Xia Changlong instructed Xu Wenbin to accept all the shares that Xia Junhu had sold, as he needed them.

As for Xia Yuxuan, he was sentenced to three and a half years. His son is unreliable, Xia Caixia is almost 60, and the shares have no heir and will soon be gone.

Her domineering presence in her husband's family was gone, and she could no longer be arrogant. Thanks to the dividends she had accumulated before the age of 60, she could at least live a comfortable life in her later years.

Seeing the plight of his elder brother and third sister, Xia Tengyun wisely chose to keep a low profile and live a life of compromise, no longer competing with Xia Changlong.

At least with Xia Changlong by his side, he can continue to live a luxurious life.

In the golden autumn of October, Yang Yajing and Zhou Pengfei held a small wedding in the courtyard of the Xia family villa. There were no media, no outsiders, only relatives and friends, only their own people.

Xu Wenbin presented the newlyweds with the 2.5% of shares that Xia Changlong had asked him to reclaim.

Before their new house was even built, the couple settled on a seaside villa as their wedding home. After the banquet, a group of young people started clamoring to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber.
