Chapter 338
Sheng Man panicked as Nie Jiqing continued, “You have let down again and again.”
There was not a trace of warmth in Nie Jiqing’s voice, “Sheng Man, this is your punishnt.”
Sheng Man panicked and imdiately said, “Mom, I admit that I’m in the wrong. I will definitely take care of my brother’s actions from now on, so can you please forgive ?”
Nie Jiqing said blankly, “Pack your luggage.”
Sheng Man’s face was extrely pale, but Nie Jiqing didn’t give her any leeway. She truly planned to drive her out.
Sheng Man couldn’t do anything about it. Nie Jiqing was currently in a state of anger, so it was useless to say anything more.
Sheng Man looked at Nie Jiqing and said carefully, “I’ll take my leave, mom.”
Nie Jiqing didn’t answer her— she didn’t even look at Sheng Man. Nie Jiqing was worried that if she looked at her one more ti, she wouldn’t be able to control the hateful rage that was burning in her heart.
Sheng Man had a hidden trace of expectations in her heart as she asked very lightly, “When you’re no longer angry, you will let live here again in the future, right?”
Sheng Man had a faint feeling that she would drift farther and farther away from Nie Jiqing, but she still bore so hope that she could make ands.
Nie Jiqing still didn’t speak nor did she look at Sheng Man as the corner of her lips were raised in a hint of mockery.
The only response that Sheng Man got was the loud silence.
What Sheng Man didn’t know was the fact that she would fall into a large pithole of tragic consequences by the very sa Sheng family she took advantage of. She rose because of the Sheng family, but her downfall would also be because of the Sheng family.
Her punishnt had only just begun.

It was late at night and the dark night was layered over the sky, but the lights in the Gu family’s huge manor were still brightly lit. The night was as cool as water whereas the breeze of the spring night drifted quietly into the garden with a slightly clear and distinct hint of bitterness.
This evening, a very important guest ca to the manor.
Yan Zhi (not Ye Zhi) went straight to the second floor of the manor. Holding a sealed bag in his hand, his expression was serious. After confirming that there was no one else in the corridor on the second floor, Gu Ren and Ye Zhi entered the study that had a sealed docunt on the table.
Yan Zhi was the one Gu Ren sent to investigate Sheng Lian. He worked for the Gu family for a long ti and was more than trustworthy.
The investigation was carried out extrely professionally. Several n of his followed different leads, so if there was any inaccurate information, they would confirm it repeatedly.
Yan Zhi got straight to the point, “Sheng Lian has been in frequent contact with soone recently.”
“That ‘soone’ is nad Liu Cang,” Yan Zhi put a photo in front of them, “He is a human trafficker.”
Ye Zhi turned her head and looked at Gu Ren with a tense expression.
“Is it him?” Gu Ren’s expression beca even more blank and slightly colder.
Since a lot of ti had passed, the original body’s mory was already a little fuzzy. But after confirming it again and again, Ye Zhi replied, “It’s him.”
Yan Zhi, “According to our investigation, Sheng Lian and Liu Cang have not been in contact for many years. This ti, after Liu Cang and Sheng Lian t, they went to a village several tis.”
“Two families in that village died in the landslide, but both had a daughter of similar ages.”
“Liu Cang was looking for the photos of the girl back then,” Yan Zhi said, “I have obtained the photos in advance, but he has not found them yet.”
“Do you want Liu Cang to find those photos?”
