She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ - Chapter 477

Chapter 477: She Is Mrs. Shen! (7)

“The families of those seventeen construction workers who died did not receive any compensation either! How many people became destitute and homeless over this incident and had their future destroyed? We can only guess.”

“Qiao Lian, what gives you the right to speak badly of Meimei? No matter how bad she has been, she did not harm lives! But your parents were indiscriminate murderers. Seventeen lives were lost just like that!”

Zhang Chunhua spoke like a warrior for justice, pointing a finger in Qiao Lian’s nose and berating her. “You are a piece of trash, worse than an animal! The fact that they killed themselves, it was only right to do so. At least they are doing the world a favor!”

Qiao Lian was trembling with fury by now.

Everyone had a limit of tolerance.

And where she was concerned, the line was drawn at her late parents.

She remembered how after the accident happened, her parents had been shocked beyond words. She remembered how people would throw rotten eggs at them when they went out on the streets. And she remembered how she and her little brother had been expelled from school because of this.

Their family of four became scum in everyone’s eyes.

But her parents weren’t evil like they had said!

All their lives, her parents had held to ethical values such as benevolence. 10% of the Qiao Family business’ profits would go to welfare organizations without fail every year.

At home, her parents had taught them to be just and virtuous.

Hence, they would have never done such evil deeds.

Even under the most difficult of circumstances, her parents had persisted in patiently waiting for the investigation process. And she had thought too that at some point their names would be cleared.

But never had she thought that a great fire would greet her when she came home one day.

Everyone had said that her parents had committed suicide.

But she knew that was impossible.

Her parents loved her and her brother above everything else. They wouldn’t have just decided to take their own lives and yet leave nothing for both their children.

She bit her lip and looked at the people who had gathered around them. “Don’t accuse the innocent! My parents did not kill themselves, and certainly not because of any evil deeds they had done!”

“Huh, you think what you say here counts? They reached a verdict long ago! Do you think that just because you say all these things while looking innocent, all of us will believe you? Besides, even if the trash of society like them did not kill themselves, how were they going to bring themselves to face the world?

Qiao Lian glared at Zhang Chunhua and said through gritted teeth, “Who are you calling trash and losers?

Zhang Chunhua replied loudly, “Your parents, of course! They were trash, losers! They deserved to die! And even then it was not enough!”

“Shut up!” Qiao Lian lost her cool.

She was almost shouting on top of her voice.

Her parents had been wrongfully accused.

She had wanted to be a reporter all these years so that she could investigate and unearth the truth. She wanted the truth to be known, to clear her parents’ names.

But right now, all she felt like doing was to rip Zhang Chunhua’s big mouth apart.

Zhang Chunhua, on the other hand, stood there with a smirk. “Why? Are you afraid that people will find out? Because you’re carrying the guilt of those evil deeds? But it’s my mouth and I’ll talk if I want to!”

“Her parents had evil hearts, of course the same goes for their children. This sharp-tongued and smug Qiao Lian is just like her parents! One look at her and you know there’s nothing good in her. The whole family is nothing but trash!”

“It’s such a big shame to have parents like this! That is why she doesn’t even dare to indicate her parents’ names in the staff personal details’ form. I’m sure she is aware that her parents are evil people…”

With every word, Qiao Lian’s fury grew.

Finally, looking at Zhang Chunhua’s cold and pathetic looking face, she could not tolerate it any longer. She took a step towards the woman raised her hand and gave her a solid, resounding slap across the face.
