Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 663

663 Incident (2)

However, later on, the Tian family made a wrong business decision and went bankrupt almost overnight. The Tian couple couldn’t take this blow and passed away one after another. Tian Li was also affected because of this. Back then, he failed in the imperial examination, and later on, his place in the imperial examination became lower and lower. At that time, Chang Zaiqing just gave birth to Huai Sheng. There were many places where she needed money. The poor couple had a lot of quarrels and arguing. Tian Li found solace in alcohol and gambling. Chang Zaiqing felt that this life was not what she wanted, so one day, she sold the last title deed they had and escaped.

Tian Li had also asked people to look for Chang Zaiqing, but to no avail. Tian Li probably did not know about the friendship between Chang Hu and Old General Shen back then, so he did not know that Chang Zaiqing had fled to the capital.

When he thought of Chang Zaiqing, Tian Li was filled with resentment. He said, “This vicious woman! That title deed is for Huai Sheng to marry when he grows up. She actually sold it and took the money away. She doesn’t love Huai Sheng at all. She’s a b*tch!”

Shen Miao lowered her eyes. Xie Jingxing was standing on the other side with his arms crossed. He looked out of the window, as if he was not interested in what Tian Li was saying. However, even if he was just standing there casually, his terrifying aura couldn’t be ignored.

!!
After saying that, Tian Li asked, “Someone said that if we came here, we would be able to see that woman. Miss, is the person who brought us to the capital… you?” Tian Li could tell at a glance that the two people in front of him were probably of extraordinary status, especially that man. How could an ordinary person have such a bearing? Moreover, they barged into a private house in the middle of the night. Ordinary people did not have the guts to do this.

“It’s me.” Shen Miao said, “I know where Chang Zaiqing is.”

Tian Li was stunned. When he spoke again, his voice was trembling. He asked, “Where… is she?”

Shen Miao frowned slightly. In addition to anger, there was still a trace of yearning for Chang Zaiqing in Tian Li’s voice. Perhaps it was because Chang Zaiqing had been his wife for many years, or perhaps it was because Chang Zaiqing was Huai Sheng’s mother after all, Tian Li probably didn’t hate Chang Zaiqing as much as he thought.

This was not something Shen Miao wanted to see.

She said, “Chang Zaiqing has now become the concubine of the third master of the Shen family, Shen Wan. Now that she’s pregnant, Shen Wan treats her extremely well and dotes on her. I think it won’t be long before she gives birth to Shen Wan’s only son. There are no other children in the Shen family. Once the child is born, Chang Zaiqing might be given the title of first wife. Even if she’s not, that child will still live a luxurious life.”

Tian Li was humiliated and angry at being made a cuckold. The last trace of wanting to forgive Chang Zaiqing and fixing the marriage was gone after Shen Miao said that.

The son Chang Zaiqing had with Shen Wan could live a luxurious life, while the son she had with him lived in poverty. People often grew resentful when they compared to others. Tian Li would never take this lying down.

Shen Miao smiled. “Not only that, but Third Master Shen even divorced his wife in order to marry Chang Zaiqing. I think he really loves Chang Zaiqing. Now, Third Madam Shen is miserable and despised by everyone.”

Tian Li sneered. “Third Master Shen is brainless and stupid!” Tian Li did not have a good impression of Shen Wan. The hatred towards Shen Wan for snatching his wife away was irreconcilable. Moreover, as a poor person, he was hostile to people who were rich, especially when he knew that living a rich life was what Chang Zaiqing always looked forward to.
