Chapter 686 The Little Singer is Free and Easy (One Hundred and Thirty-One)
In fact, Chu Tingli herself found it quite funny. This world obviously advocates the rule of law, but there are always many people who trample on the law. The man-made dangers she encountered in this world were no less than those in the ancient world. Just like in the harem, there were also poisoning and accidents.
In ancient times, amidst the chaos of war, the ruthless swords, and the harsh taxes, it was extremely difficult for people to live with dignity. Of course, in an era of hunger and cold, dignity was not a priority for ordinary people, and slaves did not have dignity either.
As the saying goes, when granaries are full, people learn etiquette. Chu Tingli couldn't deny that in the two modern worlds she'd lived in, citizens lived more exciting lives than those in the ancient world. With advanced technology and open minds, people could travel the world and imagine the future. However, modern society also had its share of darkness.
The higher up the social ladder one moves, the more power one possesses. When one has too much, some people will exploit their privileges to do whatever they want. Qin Yuanyuan and Chu Gongyan are such people.
The reason they dared to do this was simply because they regarded her, Chu Tingli, as a soft persimmon that could be taken advantage of at will.
Qin Yuanyuan was not arrested for the time being because Qin Qiming protected her, pushed all the evidence onto others, and found someone to take the blame for her.
But Chu Gongyan's methods were even more immature than Qin Yuanyuan's, and his arrogance couldn't hide his weakness. Since he was playing the victim online with his mother Gong Jiaojiao, she would make him suffer even more and let him taste the backlash of public opinion.
What’s interesting is that Chu Gongyan thought he was doing bad things behind his mother’s back, but in fact, his mother Gong Jiaojiao knew everything, and even the person was found by Gong Jiaojiao to trade with Niu Daxing.
Sometimes Chu Ting wondered whether Chu Gongyan really didn’t know his own life experience, or was he pretending not to know it?
Maybe he had guessed it in his mind a long time ago, otherwise why would he poke out the person's eyes when someone in the circle mentioned that he looked like his mother's cousin?
If he really had some suspicions, how could he have the nerve to call her an illegitimate daughter?
Chu Tingli thought about it for a while, then stopped thinking about it. She let the mother and son play the victim. When the truth came out and their masks were exposed, she would see if they still had the nerve to sell their personas online.
Chu Tingli returned to the pharmaceutical company and said goodbye to Shang Ting.
"I'll bring you breakfast tomorrow."
"Yeah, see you tomorrow."
Shang Ting has the temperament of a noble man and is a very handsome man who is pleasing to the eye. She said goodbye to him in a good mood and walked into the pharmaceutical company.
Security is tight here. Besides the numerous security personnel on duty, she's also invested in the latest security equipment, making it a safe place to live. Because of the recent online outcry, she'd long ago turned off her work phone. However, some people still contacted her through their personal numbers, either out of concern, seeking information, or gloating. The sheer volume of messages squeezed her personal time, so except for the first day, she kept her phone turned off.
Fortunately, the single room she lives in is fully equipped with internet access and can be accessed without any problems. If anything happens, I can contact her through the phone in the room.
Before turning off her phone, Chu Tingli received a call from her mother.
At that time, she was still looking at experimental data on the computer and was distracted by listening to her mother talking.
Say what?
She said Chu Da called her and told her that he had been deceived by Gong Jiaojiao for nearly twenty years and felt sorry for them. He said that all the family property would be given to his daughter in the future. He also asked when Chu Tingli and Shang Ting would get married, and then he would give her 10% of Yifeng's shares as a dowry.
Chu Tingli was almost laughing with anger. Why didn't Chu Da dare to call her? Did he need to worry about her and Shang Ting's affairs? And he was giving her shares? He had already messed up Yifeng. What good would he do with them?
"Your father said he's sorry for you and doesn't dare to contact you. In fact, it hasn't been easy for him these past few years. How can it be so easy to be a son-in-law? Miss Gong Jiaojiao has a bad temper and is very difficult to please. Gong Hong is very cunning and is planning to make him work for free so that he can be driven out of Yifeng and beg on the streets."
Chu Tingli rolled her eyes on the other end of the phone. Chu Da had chosen his own path; she hadn't forced him. He wasn't exactly a son-in-law, after all. Chu Gongyan even had his last name. The old man was quite flexible, running to play the victim in front of them.
"Did he say these words?"
"Yeah, after listening to him, I don't hate him that much anymore. He didn't have a very good life anyway. But thankfully, your father was ruthless and had his own plans, so he ended up being the winner. He's willing to leave his family fortune to you after a hundred years. He still has you, his good daughter, in his heart."
Well, Chu Tingli thought, her mother was right, Chu Da had a dark heart. So why was he showing weakness now? He felt so sorry for her, he didn't even bother to deal with the online news! He didn't do anything for her when she was in danger!
She is not a good daughter and will not let him control her.
