Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Unforeseen Events, Xiao ng’s Situation at the Jiang Family
The students and parents below the stage saw the sudden turn of events and wondered what was about to happen, all looking up towards the stage.
Everyone had already had their fill of drama this evening, but that didn’t dampen their enthusiasm for gossip in the slightest.
Director Han, seeing her appearance, had already anticipated so sort of issue and said, “Mrs. Jian, I think we should put an end to tonight’s events.”
“How can we put an end to this? The matter concerns the champion’s character and upbringing, and we must make things clear and understandable!” Mrs. Jian said loudly.
Xiao ng’s face instantly changed, her hands crossed and tightly clasped.
Feeling Jiang Zhe’s gaze, she looked up at him, and in her eyes, she gradually cald down.
Xia Enci wanted to stop Mrs. Jian, but Jiang Zhe calmly said, “Let her speak.”
Seeing that Jiang Zhe had no idea about the severity of the situation, Mrs. Jian sneered and said, “Speak? What do I have to fear?”
Liang Jinlan and Jiang Fanyue finally showed a hint of a smile on their faces.
The evening had started off poorly, and mid-way through, Xiao ng had taken the lead in the competition, making the dilemma faced by Jiang Fanyue and the Jiang Family very apparent.
If they did not turn the situation around in ti, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Fortunately, Mrs. Jian’s tily appearance was sure to turn the tide.
Just as Liang Jinlan had hoped, Mrs. Jian loudly said, “Xiao ng may indeed have nothing to do with the professors of the Beijing Music Academy, but that does not an her character is solid! In fact, when she was at the Jian Family, she even seduced my husband!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire school was taken aback, and then, like salt sprinkled into boiling water, the crowd below the stage erupted into murmurs.
Many people were incredulous: “How is that possible? Xiao ng has always lived at school, her grades are good, and she doesn’t talk much. Isn’t this accusation a bit too far-fetched?”
“No matter what, you shouldn’t humiliate a girl like this, right?”
But many still felt that Mrs. Jian must have her reasons for saying this.
Especially those who had a decent relationship with Chen Zehao had vaguely heard a bit of gossip: “It’s not for
to say, but before Xiao ng went to high school, it seems she was called Jian Xiaong, adopted by the Jian Family.”
Hearing everyone’s discussions, Mrs. Jian slowly continued, “That’s right, Xiao ng ca from an orphanage, and my husband and I adopted her. In the Jian Family, she was renad Jian Xiaong. I treated her as if she was my own and raised her like my biological daughter. However, she was still not content, and her heart harbored other desires, committing acts that were no better than those of an animal! One day, she even tried to take advantage of my husband while he was drunk… Fortunately, I discovered her sche, and my husband was not fooled! It was because of this that we dissolved our adoption relationship with her and sent her back to the orphanage!”
Her words were not likely made up on the spot, and indeed, many people rembered that Xiao ng was indeed called Jian Xiaong right after graduating from junior high school.
Xia Enci refused to believe it: “You’re lying, if you were so good to Xiao ng, why would she do sothing like that, why would she ruin her relationship with you to such an extent!”
“That, you’ll have to ask her what she wants! Perhaps she was never satisfied with being my daughter; instead, she wanted to be the matriarch of the entire Jian Family!”
Mrs. Jian’s words were resolute and powerful.
Xia Enci still wanted to rebut, but Madam Jian continued, “The incident that night was not just empty talk from . In my urgency, I imdiately called the police. There’s still a record of it! However, once in the police station, considering she was young and it was her first offense, I accepted her various apologies and did not pursue the matter further, treating it as if it had never happened, as a way to give her a chance.”
Her words carried such convincing righteousness that many in the audience gradually began to believe her.
No wonder Xiao ng was not close to others, even her horoom teacher Tian Wangcheng did not like her.
So she had actually done such a thing!
Madam Jian looked at Liang Jinlan before turning to Fa Pinglun and Zhou Ruzhi, “These are words I originally intended to keep to myself and not ntion to anyone. But since the stakes of this competition are so high, and the Beijing Music Academy is such a reputable school, how could I stand by and watch a child like her snatch opportunities from other children, causing them suffering?”
Liang Jinlan nodded knowingly. It seed Madam Jian was well aware of the situation and there might be opportunities for collaboration in the future.
Fa Pinglun looked towards Jiang Zhe.
Fen Ye, who was standing by, was surprised to hear such gossip at a piano competition. Who would have thought?
But seeing Jiang Zhe’s calm deanor, he felt that the situation might not be as simple as it appeared.
His gaze shifted from Jiang Zhe’s face to Qin Jingchen’s, and seeing that Qin Jingchen was even more composed than Jiang Zhe, Fen Ye knew that there might not be any problem too difficult to solve in front of these two.
All he needed to do was watch and wait.
Indeed, Jiang Zhe didn’t even blink an extra ti as he mildly said, “What Madam Jian ans is, Xiao ng seduced your husband, your husband is innocent and blaless, and you are magnanimous enough to forgive Xiao ng?”
“Of course, the evidence is conclusive. Every word I say is the truth! I still have the records of the police report from back then!” Madam Jian, fearing others might not believe her, took out her police report.
Her husband, Jian Wude, stood behind her saying nothing, but it was clear he shared her sentint.
These pieces of evidence were extrely detrintal to Xiao ng.
Many in the audience looked at Xiao ng with contempt in their eyes.
“However, according to the facts as I understand them, that’s not the case! The real truth is that your husband, Jian Wude, took advantage of his drunken state to make moves on Xiao ng. When Xiao ng sought your help, you turned your sha to anger and accused her instead, taking her to the police station and alleging that she seduced Jian Wude! When the police wanted to investigate further, you pleaded on Xiao ng’s behalf, claiming it was a minor issue that could be resolved with an apology, because you were afraid that a deeper investigation would reveal that the problem lay with you and your husband!”
Jiang Zhe’s words left Madam Jian furious, “What would you know! Even Xiao ng herself admitted to what happened, can you still argue against it?”
“Yes, she did indeed admit to it! But that was because, at the ti of the incident, she was just a teenager, and she didn’t dare defy you. Moreover, you and your husband acted as benefactors. Considering your over a decade of supposed kindness, Xiao ng took all the responsibility upon herself!”
“Who are you to lie like this here!” Madam Jian shouted in rage.
Liang Jinlan and Jiang Zhang remained silent, and Jiang Fanyue seed to want to step forward to support Jiang Zhe, but struggled to find the opportunity.
“Whether Xiao ng did these things, there is evidence!” Jiang Zhe raised his hand and took out his phone.
