A message can spread very quickly within a factory.
When the news reached Wen Minting's ears, she was furious, especially seeing the pitying looks she received from others.
She prided herself on living the best life possible, but what happened? She ended up marrying a man who was both lame and blind.
The timeline was blurred, and Wen Yuennan's trip to the Wen family was interpreted as a failed marriage proposal. Wen Minting, whose brain capacity was already limited, had no interest in figuring out where the news came from; she couldn't even bear the sympathy from the people at the factory.
Wherever she went, she seemed to hear whispers: "Look, it's her. She always wants the best of everything, but she still has to marry a crippled and blind man to take the blame for her cousin."
Wen Minting disregarded everything else and went back to her parents to verify. Wen's father and mother exchanged a glance, looking surprised. They hadn't even told Wen Minting about the marriage yet, so how did she know?
Speaking of this marriage, they were the ones who benefited. Originally, based on their family's conditions, the other party wouldn't have even looked at them. But now they needed to form a marriage alliance with the Wen family, and Wen Yuennan was more career-oriented and chose to go to the countryside, so this good thing fell to them.
Mother Wen exclaimed, "Where did you get this news from? We haven't even told you yet..."
Wen Minting's expression immediately changed: "What? So this is true? It's the marriage that Wen Yuennan didn't want, and you're going to push me into a fire pit?"
Before Wen's mother could explain, she knew in private that her daughter and Wen Yuennan were at odds, but in all matters, the truth was the most important thing, and this marriage was excellent.
Therefore, I didn't know how to respond to what Wen Minting said.
Wen Minting immediately started making a scene, refusing to marry him no matter what.
Meanwhile, Fan Xiaofan had been listening to the gossip about the Wen family these past few days. After all, Qingcheng wasn't a big city, and Wen Minting was someone who didn't know how to restrain herself, so this matter naturally became a source of entertainment for many people.
She found it rather strange; how could this matter possibly affect the Wen family?
They, mere mortals, couldn't understand the thoughts of these big shots.
What Shi Lingheng needed to do was to tear a hole in the Wen family. At the same time, he also had Zhang Desheng release a message that he had taken over the Fu family's connections and found the suspicious aspects of his elder brother's death. It was unknown how Wu Ying would imagine and speculate upon hearing this news.
Feeling guilty? That's good. If he feels guilty, he can go back to Qingcheng to seek peace of mind.
A mix of truth and fiction makes it easier for people to believe.
When Zhang Desheng learned that Wu Ying had betrayed the Fu family, he spat out a curse: "Mr. Shi, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter properly for you."
Shi Lingheng patted him on the shoulder with a smile, looking encouraging, and chuckled softly: "After all, money can move people's hearts, can't it?"
Zhang Desheng's smile froze for a moment, then he immediately patted his chest to pledge his loyalty: "Mr. Shi, I would never do that."
Shi Lingheng didn't say much. After he turned and left, Zhang Desheng felt a cold sweat. Shi Lingheng was right. Who wouldn't be tempted by the connections and wealth left by the Fu family? However, he knew even more clearly that sometimes, money can be a burden.
Just like Wu Ying now, being targeted by Shi Lingheng, she's probably not going to have a good ending.
As Shi Lingheng had instructed, the news was released in Qingcheng. As Shi Lingheng had expected, Wu Ying had also left people in Qingcheng to keep an eye on the latest developments. Now she learned that Shi Lingheng had taken over the Fu family's connections and found out the cause of her elder brother's death.
Wu Ying inevitably became somewhat uneasy during this period...
Could it be that what we did back then has really been dug up?
