Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Han Jingting’s Grievance
Just as Chen Xuan was about to explode, Han Jingting stopped him.
"You don’t need to come up here anymore, I’ll bring Xiaoyu down to you every day."
With that, Han Jingting closed the door.
Staring at the closed door, Chen Xuan felt a surge of frustration, clenching his fists in anger.
In the living room, Ding Lijuan was still relentless.
"Why are you still protecting him? He’s a jinx. If it weren’t for him, would our family ever be this unlucky?"
Now, Ding Lijuan had blamed everything about the bounced check entirely on Chen Xuan, feeling that it was all his fault.
Han Bowwen also chimed in, "Exactly, I think Chen Xuan must be incompatible with our family’s fortunes. Ever since he joined our family, we’ve never had any good luck! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have lost so much money this time!"
Han Jingting was speechless for a moment.
Despite feeling some annoyance towards Chen Xuan, she wasn’t going to pin all the blame on him.
Whether it was the casino incident or the issue with the check, these were mistakes made by her own parents, yet now they were taking out all their anger on Chen Xuan, a behavior that Han Jingting found intolerable.
At this moment, Xiaoyu immediately stood up for her father.
"Don’t talk about Daddy like that! Daddy is not a jinx, he’s a great hero, and he protected Xiaoyu from bad guys today!"
Xiaoyu’s voice was childish, but her expression was dead serious as she defended her father.
Upon hearing this, Ding Lijuan became furious, "You’re just a child, what do you know! Always contradicting me, you’re just like your no-good father!"
Han Jingting frowned, "Mom, Xiaoyu is still your granddaughter, how can you talk about her like that! You might as well scold me too!"
Ding Lijuan rolled her eyes and grumbled dissatisfiedly, "If only you had the ability to find a better man, your dad and I wouldn’t have to suffer with you! Now look, not only were we kicked out of the company, but we also lost our dividends, and with twenty million in debt, I’d like to see how you plan to pay it back!"
Han Jingting was so angry she couldn’t speak.
The gambling was her dad’s doing, the check was lost by her mom, yet now they were blaming everything on her, even saddling her with twenty million in debt.
Han Jingting’s heart was filled with misery and injustice!
After sending Xiaoyu back to her room, Han Jingting’s pent-up frustrations finally burst forth, and she lay down on the bed and sobbed uncontrollably.
She had just graduated from university, her heart full of aspirations for love when she was forcibly arranged to marry Chen Xuan.
After entering Han Corporation, she had worked diligently, and it wasn’t easy for her to finally become the company’s CEO.
But now, her marriage was in crisis, and her career had hit a dead end.
Now her work and personal life were both going poorly, and even the filial piety she genuinely wanted to show her parents was met with complaints and blame in their eyes.
Han Jingting felt that everything about herself was a complete failure!
If it weren’t for Xiaoyu, Han Jingting would hardly see any meaning in continuing to live.
The thought of Xiaoyu again reminded Han Jingting that if she divorced Chen Xuan, Xiaoyu would inevitably be hurt.
Thinking about all this only added to Han Jingting’s sense of injustice, and she cried even harder.
Xiaoyu had her concern as a mother, but who was there to care for her?
The next morning, while the family was eating breakfast together, Han Jingting’s phone rang.
Seeing the name on the display, Han Jingting was somewhat surprised.
Yang Xiaomeng, a high school classmate of hers.
During school, they were desk mates and close friends, but after going to college, they rarely stayed in touch. Han Jingting did not expect her to suddenly call.
"Hey, Xiaomeng, what made you decide to call me?"
"Jingting, you finally answered my call. I called you several times last night, but you didn’t answer. I thought you were ignoring me!" Yang Xiaomeng pretended to be angry.
"Ah? Really? I went to bed early yesterday, I might not have heard it."
Han Jingting quickly changed the subject, "What’s up, is there something you needed me for?"
"That’s right, there’s a high school class reunion today, many classmates will be there. Do you want to join?"
"Class reunion?"
Han Jingting had been troubled by many problems lately, and she wasn’t really in the mood for such gatherings, but thinking that she did need to relax a bit, she nodded and agreed directly, "Alright, send me the time and place, and I’ll be there!"
It wasn’t long after hanging up that Yang Xiaomeng’s message came through.
"Dragon Lake First-Class?"
Seeing the location on her phone, Han Jingting was quite surprised.
She had thought the gathering would be held at a restaurant or something, but she didn’t expect it to be at someone’s home.
Plus, as far as Han Jingting knew, Dragon Lake First-Class was the most upscale villa district in all of Huai City, where the residents were either rich or noble.
Han Jingting was very curious about who was hosting the class reunion; who could afford a house in such a posh area?
At noon, Han Jingting drove to Dragon Lake First-Class as promised.
The entire Dragon Lake First-Class Villa District was situated on top of the vast Dragon Lake.
Its design was very unique, utilizing a circular design similar to an ancient moat.
The entire villa district was divided into three areas: the outer city, the middle city, and the inner city.
And different areas represented different values and statuses.
The villas in the outer city were relatively cheaper, the inner city’s were the most expensive, and not just anyone was eligible to buy them.
And the location of this gathering was in the middle city area.
Even though it was just the middle city, it was still beyond the reach of an ordinary family.
Just as she arrived at the community entrance, she saw a striking figure already waiting there—it was Yang Xiaomeng.
"Jingting!" Yang Xiaomeng waved excitedly upon seeing Han Jingting.
Han Jingting smiled and walked up, "It’s been a few years, and you’ve gotten even more beautiful!"
Yang Xiaomeng’s family background was quite ordinary. After a few years apart, Yang Xiaomeng had indeed matured a lot and had become better at dressing up.
"Stop teasing me. No matter how pretty I am, I can’t compare to you, the school beauty! Alright, the others have already arrived, let’s hurry in as well."
As she spoke, Yang Xiaomeng took Han Jingting’s hand and headed towards the villa.
"By the way, how did you come up with the idea to have the reunion here?" Han Jingting asked curiously.
"You don’t know? The location of this reunion is Dai Siqi’s home!"
"Dai Siqi?" Hearing this name, Han Jingting was taken aback.
This Dai Siqi had been somewhat inferior to Han Jingting in both academics and looks back in the day.
Even the titles of class beauty and school beauty had been snatched away by Han Jingting.
Yet, Han Jingting had never imagined that Dai Siqi, who used to be second to her in every way, would now be living in a mansion in the coveted Dragon Lake First-Class!
