“What’s wrong, dear?” Tang Qiu realized that after she finished speaking, not only was Feng Lu stunned, even Jiang Shaocheng was silent. He just looked at her and… smiled?

Tang Qiu felt a chill run down her spine. What was going on? She didn’t think she had said anything shocking. It was just a very simple conclusion. Wasn’t it normal to look for the police when one was in trouble? Besides, they were overseas, and she was under no obligation to help Feng Lu. She didn’t feel burdened to assist soone who had always bullied her. She was no saint; she wasn’t magnanimous enough not to bear grudges.

She was an illegitimate daughter who had hurt the Feng family, but she was also a victim. Moreover, Feng Guo’an was the one who caused all of this. All these years, she had been working like a slave in the Feng family. It wasn’t that Tang Qiu lacked a spine, she simply knew the best way to survive.

“You’re right. We should go to the police.” Jiang Shaocheng smiled. He should have known by now that his Qiu wasn’t half as timid as she appeared. She wasn’t one to simply forgive and forget, and to absorb abuse in silence after a single apology. No, she was full of spirit, with her stubbornness and her sense of right and wrong.

“No, no… Tang Qiu, how can you ignore ? I’m your sister. Don’t you want my father to acknowledge you? As long as you bring back to the Feng family, I’ll make sure he reveals the truth of who you are! I’ll acknowledge you as the third daughter of the Feng family!” Feng Lu hadn’t expected Tang Qiu to ignore her. True panic dawned on her. She had nothing now. She had been fated to et Tang Qiu in a foreign country. If she returned to the Feng family in this state and was seen by reporters, then her reputation…

!!

In order for Tang Qiu to save her, Feng Lu leveraged the status that Tang Qiu had cared about the most in the past. As long as the Feng family did not make it public, Tang Qiu would be labeled as a bastard child. And Tang Qiu had to care about what people thought of her… Otherwise, why would she shalessly stay in the Feng family and let them vent their anger and humiliation on her?

“Shaocheng’s bodyguard will send you to the police station. When the ti cos, you can contact the Feng family yourself. I believe they will pick you up imdiately. As for the Feng family na… I don’t want it anymore. My surna is Tang, not Feng!” After knowing about her mother, Tang Qiu hated Feng Guo’an, and she didn’t want to admit that she was his daughter. She thanked Feng Guo’an for neglecting her all these years. Otherwise, if she had to change her surna now, she wouldn’t even dare to secretly et Tang Linxi.

Tang Qiu did not give Feng Lu another chance. Heedless of Feng Lu’s final threat, she left the matter to Jiang Shaocheng’s bodyguard.

“Do you think I’m heartless?” Tang Qiu asked her husband as they watched Feng Lu being sent away.

However, Jiang Shaocheng laughed. “No! You did very well.” His Qiu really didn’t know him at all. It should be said that she had never realized his true nature. If it had been up to him, Feng Lu would have been thrown into the sea long ago. After all, the Feng family deserved so payback after everything they had done. Just like the backstabbing mbers of the Jiang family who had killed his parents. If he hadn’t pretended to be crippled for so many years, he would probably have beco a victim of those rotten schers.

The Jiang family was a large family, with no lack of children. Heirs could be nurtured one after another. However, those who wanted to manipulate the Jiang family, monopolize its power, and hurt its interests deserved nothing less than to die.

Jiang Shaocheng’s mother had died in a secret power struggle, leaving him, a young boy, alone to face a group of predators. In order to survive, he had no choice but to hide himself. He had sowed his seeds of influence in the Jiang family long ago. But he wanted to play a good ga of cat and mouse: to watch them fight like trapped beasts before leaving them helpless but to waste away.

No one in the Jiang family was innocent. Jiang Shaocheng would not let anyone off, let alone be soft-hearted. Therefore, compared to him, Tang Qiu’s actions were not cruel at all. However, she had managed to surprise him. Tang Qiu had always endured the bullying in her school in silence, he had nearly forgotten that she, too, was fierce at heart!

It was only that she preferred to hide her sharp claws before catching her enemies off-guard.

However, what Tang Qiu and Jiang Shaocheng did not expect was that a woman who stirred up trouble–even if she was barely a threat–could cause even more problems!
