Chapter 168: Is There Really No Room for Salvation?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mu Qiqi’s guess was right. After knowing Qianqian had really made up her mind, the Duan family was shocked. Before this, Qianqian would just endure the pain when seeing their son fooling around with other people. So, they thought Qianqian was just acting up like a child throwing a tantrum.

But when the lawyers of the Lu family went to look for them to end all their business contracts, only then they realized she was serious.

After that, Papa Duan scolded Duan Shao’an and ordered Mama Duan to bring their son to Lu Mansion to apologize.

Hence, the mother and the son stood in front of the gate of Lu Mansion early in the morning.

“Qianqian, they had been waiting for almost two hours, are you really not going to see them?” Mama Lu crossed her arms in front of her chest. She was in Lu Qianqian’s room, watching her daughter dress up.

“I was like a pug, following behind Duan Shao’an all the time. What is wrong with making him wait for me now?” Lu Qianqian said indifferently. “If you don’t want to let them wait, you can tell them I am not here.”

After listening to Lu Qianqian’s words, Mama Lu patted her on her shoulder. “My daughter has matured.”

“Don’t worry, Mom.” Lu Qianqian turned around and held Mama Lu’s hands. “I won’t worry you anymore.”

“Since they are all unimportant people, we will not see them. What’s the big deal?”

Then, Mama Lu walked downstairs to the living room. She said, “I am sorry, Madan Duan. I went upstairs just now to call Qianqian. Then only I realized she is not at home. I am sorry to make you wait for so long. Please forgive me. Please, you can leave now.”

Actually, everyone knew that Lu Qianqian was at home. It was just that she was unwilling to see them.

“In law…”

“Madam Duan, since the engagement of our children was cancelled, you should not call me that way anymore.” Mama Lu corrected Mama Duan.

“This is the most important matter in one’s life, how can you cancel it so hastily?”

Mama Lu’s eyes darkened after she heard what Mama Duan had said. She was a prideful lady, more arrogant than Papa Lu in their family. Previously, she bore with Duan Shao’an’s misconduct because her daughter loved him. Now, why would she bear with him when her daughter did not love him anymore?

“I don’t want to count all the affairs your son has had outside. I have told Qianqian many times to break up with this kind of man. Why should she choose such a man? But she insisted. Fine then. I would wait and see how it turned out to be. I never expected that your son would go this far. Getting engaged with Qianqian but living together with another woman! Then, he even caused my daughter to have a miscarriage!”

“If I was the one who gave birth to this scum, I would just trample him to death! Why should I let rubbish live in this world?”

“Do you think Qianqian should make concessions again like she used to? Do you think my family owes you anything? No! Now, I am glad that my daughter does not love him anymore. I feel so great that I will ask someone to go buy firecrackers and light them up at the door.”

Mama Lu did not intend to give them any face when she said it. Why should she?

Mama Duan looked sick. But she endured it. “Madam Lu, please let me see Qianqian. Perhaps she might change her mind?”

Mama Lu sneered and nodded. “I told you she has gone out. If you still want to see her, you can wait. I have other matters to take care of. So, help yourself.”

“She is just a broken shoe. If she cancels our wedding, who will want her?”

Duan Shao’an’s mumbled to himself. His parents actually thought the same.

The incident of Qianqian’s miscarriage was a hot topic in their social circle. Everyone knew about it. How could Qianqian get married after this?

But Qianqian stood firm. She let the mother and son wait and starve the whole day without seeing her. They waited until night when Papa Lu came home.

At last, Lu Qianqian walked downstairs when it was time for dinner. When Duan Shao’an saw her, he rushed forward and said, “Do you not know that you have let us wait the whole day?”

“Did I ask you to wait?” Lu Qianqian chuckled.

“Enough with your trouble, Lu Qianqian.”

Lu Qianqian shook her hand off his grip and pushed him away. “Who is giving you trouble? Our engagement has been cancelled. You should not come here anymore. Do you really think I must marry you? I know people are laughing at me because I had a miscarriage. But what’s the big deal? I can just stay single. I am rich. I can enjoy all kinds of food and all kinds of fun. Why must I need a man?”

After that, Lu Qianqian looked at her father and asked, “Father, please cut all the ties with the Duan family as soon as possible. I don’t want to see their faces anymore.”

“My girl, I have asked the lawyers to deal with this matter. The Duan family will go bankrupt in three days.” Papa Lu answered as he was taking off his coat.

“Can you hurry up the process?” Lu Qianqian asked her father playfully.

“Well, I shall make some phone calls later and ask them to arrange more lawyers to deal with this.” Papa Lu hugged Qianqian. “Why would my daughter not be able to get married?”

Mama Duan and Duan Shao’an’s faces looked awful when they heard him.

“The Duan family bullied you too much. I shall not let them live a good life. I promise.”

After that, Lu Qianqian turned her head and looked at Duan Shao’an. “Did you hear that?”

“Do you think the Duan family will be defeated without you?”

“I don’t just think so, I am sure of it!”

Mama Duan and Duan Shao’an did not expect that they would be rejected by the Lu family. Now, they could only leave Lu Mansion in vain.

After seeing them off, Lu Qianqian harrumphed. “Father, how big is the possibility to make the Duan family go bankrupt?”

“Duan Shao’an’s father is not a clever businessman. Without our help, the Duan family would have gone bankrupt long ago. What do you think?” Papa Lu patted Lu Qianqian’s head. “My child, I am just worried that you can’t let go.”

“Father, old things should be thrown away.”

“Good, then just wait and see.”

What about the mother and the son? After they went home, Duan Shao’an complained. “That bitch hid all day long and refused to see us. She even humiliated Mom and me.”

“I told you to reconcile with her. What have you done then?” Papa Duan slapped Duan Shao’an in his face after he heard what he said. “If it was not because of your wrongdoings, would Qianqian hate you that much? Would the Lu family do this to us?”

“Father…”

“Just wait and see. With their way of doing things, they will withdraw all their funds from the Duan family in just a few days.”

“Is there really no room for salvation?” Mama Duan did not want to lick the boots of the Lu family since the start.

“The Lu family have done their best all these years.” After Papa Duan said this, he glared at Duan Shao’an. “In order to pull through the bankruptcy, I will confiscate all the properties under Shao’an’s name. His villa, his sports car and all the valuables.”

“Father…”

“You have no choice. Since the first day you betrayed Qianqian, you are fated to turn from a prince into a frog. Now, I want to see if your new girlfriend will still stay with you when she knows that you are penniless!”
