Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties
Chapter 450 - 449: Who is the Shameless Bastard That Did This!

Chapter 450: Chapter 449: Who is the Shameless Bastard That Did This!

Miao Xue bit her lip as she left the Wu Family’s house, and turning her head for a glance at the tightly closed gate of Lin Family’s house, she felt a surge of triumph and joy. The grievances she had suffered from the cold treatment by Wu Zhengyang’s family didn’t seem to matter anymore!

Although her future mother-in-law was somewhat worldly and greedy, she didn’t really care about her at all.

Because she believed that as soon as Wu Zhengyang’s mom knew about her family’s financial status, she would definitely change her attitude towards her.

Compared to that, her family was hundreds of times better than that of Lin Qiu!

Wang Lan from the convenience store across the street saw everything through the window. She had witnessed Miao Xue’s expression at the doorway, and she spat dismissively in the dark.

That woman really had no shame, seducing someone who was engaged and not feeling awkward about it one bit!

Who knew if she was still a virgin when she got involved with the young and the old of the Wu family!

Probably not! Otherwise, how could her face remain so unabashedly calm?

Miao Xue may not have had the chance to think about it, but in the eyes of the neighbors near the Wu Family, her character had already been judged.

Lin Qiu was too heartbroken to focus on work, and although the dress shop was open, it was Lin Xia managing the inventory inside.

After Lin Xia finished inventorying the goods, she wasn’t in a hurry to go out and stock up.

She was worried about her sister for one, and besides, the goods that had been stocked would take some time to sell anyway.

Thus, Lin Xia closed the doors of the dress shop and took Lin Qiu out for a stroll to clear their minds.

Naturally, they ended up visiting Jiang Mingyuan’s store. When Jiang Mingyuan learned that Lin Qiu had broken up with Wu Zhengyang, he immediately asked for the reason.

The two had been fine before, it wasn’t possible that they would break up just like that.

Lin Xia briefly explained the situation, "...so they broke up! After that, Wu Zhengyang’s mom was really something else, even asking Xiaoqiu for the engagement gifts and the ring they had given us, as if we wouldn’t return them!"

She even now found it laughable, those little amounts of money and things she didn’t take seriously at all. Even if Wu Zhengyang’s mom hadn’t mentioned it, would they not return them?

Jiang Mingyuan rubbed his fingers, he had always treated Lin Qiu as if she were his own sister, and now that she was wronged, he definitely wouldn’t let it go just like that.

But there was no need to mention these in front of them, if he did, it would make Lin Qiu feel bad, and Lin Xia might even stop him.

He calmly inquired further, "Then what? Did you fight?"

Knowing Lin Xia, that girl was not the type to be taken advantage of!

Lin Qiu had always been protected fiercely by Lin Xia like an eagle; facing this situation, an explosion was inevitable!

"No! Why would we fight?" Lin Xia laughed meaningfully, "I did give back to her!"

"How did you give back? Tell me about it!" Jiang Mingyuan didn’t believe she could have done nothing!

Lin Qiu couldn’t help but interject, "Big brother! I only found out later how my sister gave back!" She felt quite relieved when she heard about it afterward!

Lin Qiu paused briefly before continuing, "My sister did return it, but... the way she did it was quite special... She threw the money at her and then crushed the ring out of shape..."

Lin Qiu’s mood had much improved by now, and she could talk about the Wu Family’s affairs quite calmly.

But because the two families lived so closely, she still occasionally saw Wu Zhengyang or heard his voice, and each time, it made her feel particularly uncomfortable.

Perhaps she still needed some time to recover. After all, it’s not like feelings could be simply turned off immediately after a breakup.

Jiang Mingyuan helplessly shook his head and smiled at Lin Xia, "You! This is really something you could do!"

He thought of Lin Xia as a girl who was both righteous and mischievous.

You might say she’s ruthless, yet when others needed help, she still had a warm heart.

"You say she’s kindhearted and selfless, but when she encounters someone or something that irritates her, her temper flares up and she’s capable of doing just about anything!"

Lin Xia gave a dry chuckle, clearing her throat, "I was just angry at the time, I wanted to teach her a lesson!"

That day, Wu Zhengyang came back with his bicycle bent and bruised.

The neighbors sitting outside to enjoy the cool air all gathered around, bombarding him with questions.

"Oh my goodness! What happened to you?"

"Did you get into a fight?"

"Who beat you up?"

Everyone secretly thought it must have been Lin Xia who had someone do it! That girl is fierce! She definitely could have done it!

Wu Zhengyang, with a heavy gaze, didn’t answer; he looked towards the closed clothing store, a trace of agony crossing his eyes.

Since that day, he had rarely seen Lin Qiu.

He knew he wasn’t a decent person, he had completely broken such a good girl’s heart.

Mother Wu heard the buzzing outside and hurried out of the house.

Seeing her son beaten up like this, she was nearly heartbroken and immediately screamed, "My dear boy! Are you okay? Let mom take a look! Who is this heartless wretch who did this?"

While she spoke, she glanced toward the Lin Family’s house, but their main gate was firmly locked, and the shutter of their clothing store was down.

With no one at home, she wanted to curse them by implication but realized it was pointless since they weren’t there to hear it, so she had to temporarily hold her peace!

Once back inside, Mother Wu cleaned the wounds and applied medicine while she nagged Wu Zhengyang, "It must have been Lin Xia who had someone do this! You just wait until they get back! I will definitely have a good argument with them!

We’ve already gone our separate ways; why can’t they let it go? I haven’t said a word about how she bullied our family, and yet she has someone beat you up!

Luckily, you two didn’t end up together! This Lin Family is just like bandits, no manners at all! Miao Xue’s family, on the other hand, includes officials; she has had a good upbringing from childhood on..."

Since learning about Miao Xue’s family background, Mother Wu had not been as indifferent as before.

She felt that apart from her looks not comparing to Lin Qiu’s, Miao Xue was better than Lin Qiu in every other aspect!

Lin Qiu not only came from a difficult family, having such a fierce elder sister was truly tough!

Wu Zhengyang’s emotions were close to erupting; he waved his hand with intense impatience, "Mom! Can you talk less and let me have some quiet for a while?"

He didn’t want to hear any of it! But if they started arguing, it would only lead to a quarrel!

He was truly exhausted!

At work during the day, facing Miao Xue was already extremely distressing, but coming home to his mother was another ordeal.

Mother Wu, holding back her distress, said, "Alright! I’ll heat up some food for you, and after you eat, you can get some sleep!"

Wu Zhengyang lay down sorrowfully, biting his fist as he suppressed the pain inside him.

His life had always been smooth sailing. He and Lin Qiu’s relationship had encountered few major hurdles, and they had even gotten engaged smoothly.

He had thought everything would continue like this, with Lin Xia getting married at the end of the year, and their own marriage soon to follow.

When they were together, they often dreamed about their future life.

But everything changed that day!

Even knowing he had been trapped by Miao Xue, he couldn’t escape it; after all, he had taken her body!
