Chapter 135 - The Li Family Is Trending

Even though the report did not include specific references to the Li family, Qiao An used her meticulous writing to portray the despair and helplessness of being abandoned by the scumbag when she was kidnapped. It made people cry.

An except from the article was especially touching:

“I was kidnapped by the kidnappers for seven days and spent every day in fear and uneasiness. But I always believed that my husband would come to save me. When Miss Wei was captured and he finally appeared, I naively thought that he was here to save me. Until he personally told me that the person he wanted to save was Miss Wei, I was more terrified than ever. My world collapsed all of a sudden.”

In the end, Qiao An didn’t mock the scumbag’s disloyalty to his marriage, or expose the ugly face of his in-laws exploiting their wives, but completed the sublimation of the proposition in a self-deprecating manner—I, Qiao An, am blind and made misjudgments. If there’s an afterlife, I hope I’ll always be able to avoid him.

Because the kidnapping case at that time was too sensational, everyone knew that the young madam of the Li family had been kidnapped. When the person involved brought up the kidnapping case, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she was accusing the Li family.

After this report was released, it received almost a hundred million downloads.

Instantly, Qiao An was on fire.

She became the most famous abandoned woman in the capital.

Her tragic encounter also earned the sympathy of those treasure mothers and housewives. They all liked her.

They cursed the alias Miss Wei in the article, “You like to be a mistress so much, and you like to destroy other people’s families. Your reputation is terrible. Let’s see which man dares to take over in the future.”

“Only that scumbag of a mountain wolf is worthy of her. Let them harm each other.”

“They are scandalous pair, a match made in heaven.”

The anger of the citizens made them search for Wei Xin and Li Zecheng without caring about the consequences. Then, they cursed them every day.

Wei Xin was scolded so much that she didn’t dare to go out and hid at home every day. Occasionally, when she went out for a walk and was recognized by the residents, they would question her indignantly, “You’re so young, why do you have to be a mistress?”

At first, Wei Xin and her mother would excitedly explain to others that the things on the Internet couldn’t be trusted and that Qiao An was spreading rumors.

Then, a kind-hearted resident gave her an idea. “Since you think she’s spreading rumors, sue her.”

When Wei Xin returned home and saw all kinds of rumors flying around, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. In the end, she was so angry that she commented under the report, “Distorting the truth, leave everything to the police.”

Seeing how confident she was, some fans immediately started to waver. “Could there be a reversal?”

Qiao An became even more arrogant and replied to Wei Xin’s comment, “Do you want me to show the evidence? Miss Wei is probably going to the hospital to destroy the evidence. Otherwise, I’ll wait for the child’s genetic test nine months later.”

As soon as these words were spoken, public opinion immediately supported Qiao An.

“Heavens, the mistresses nowadays are too arrogant. They actually planted seeds before the first wife left the court. This has refreshed my worldview.”

Wei Xin was speechless.

She no longer dared to spout nonsense under Qiao An’s words.

The divorce between Li Zecheng and Qiao An instantly spread faster and faster on the Internet.

The Li family had long been thrown into chaos by this overwhelming public opinion.

Old Master Li gathered his sons and grandsons and raged at them, “How long are you going to let this trending topic last? Hurry up and think of a way to suppress it.”

The eldest son, Li Tingye, said, “Dad, Qiao An personally wrote the interview manuscript. Her writing is really shrewd. The words and phrasing are done very carefully, and the plot is meticulous. However, she didn’t mention the Li family at all. Moreover, at the end, he said that it was passed on by a rich wife. We can’t deny such an interview manuscript. There’s no reason to ban it. Unless…”

“Shoot.”

“Unless we personally beg the chairman of the Haiyue Corporation to show mercy and take down this interview. However, the dowload volume of this interview is astonishing. It can attract hundreds of millions of traffic. I’m afraid the chairman of the Haiyue Corporation won’t let go easily,” Li Tingye said.

Old Master Li gritted his teeth. “We have to take it down no matter how much it costs.”

Li Tingye also knew that he had to spend this money because as public opinion expanded, many people had already spontaneously organized a boycott of Li Kang Corporation’s medicine.

This would affect the entire Li family’s foundation.

However, this disaster was caused by the third branch. The first and second branches were unwilling to be implicated by the third branch. At this moment, Li Tingye was not thinking about sharing the burden with the third branch, but completely separating from them.

“Dad, Zecheng and Qiao An’s divorce caused a huge commotion. Zecheng’s affair was too wrong. The eyes of the public are bright. If our Li family wants to protect Zecheng and pretend to be peaceful, I’m afraid the final outcome will be everyone falling into this vortex.”

“Why don’t we split up for the time being? Even if the third branch is damaged, we can support the third branch in the future. There’s no need for everyone to get involved in this mess,” the eldest suggested.

“That’s right, that’s right. Big Brother is right. Dad, you didn’t see it. In the past two days, our Li family has become the target of public criticism. Those people have spontaneously organized a resistance operation. This has made many business partners very tempted to cooperate with us. Moreover, they also want to terminate their contracts with the previous few cooperation cases.” Second Brother hurriedly echoed.

When disaster struck, they would fly separately.

Although the third branch was very dissatisfied with the first and second branches’ self-serving behavior, the third branch was indeed the one who caused the trouble. They had no right to speak.

The old man slammed the table and stood up. “Did Qiao An drive a wedge between you brothers?”

The brothers lowered their heads and remained silent.

The old man glared fiercely at Li Zecheng and Third Madam and said, “It’s all your fault. Qiao An wanted a divorce in the beginning, so you should have talked to her properly. You know how to scheme. Have you ever thought that you would end up like today?”

Li Zecheng and Third Madam hung their heads and did not dare to speak.

Old Master Li heaved a sigh of relief. “Give her whatever compensation she wants. Calm her down. If she continues to cause trouble, our Li family will suffer even greater losses.”

Third Madam thought about how Qiao An had not created any value in the two years of her marriage, but she had to take half of Li Zecheng’s income. Just the thought of it made her heart ache.

However, since Old Master Li had spoken, she did not dare to disobey. Otherwise, if Old Master Li was really heartless and abandoned them, the third branch would fall.

Third Madam looked at Li Zecheng.

“Zecheng, call Qiao An immediately and tell her that I want to see her alone.”

Li Zecheng called Qiao An in public, but unfortunately, Qiao An had already blocked him. He remembered this and called Loco.

The call went through. Li Zecheng said, “Loco, my mother wants to see Qiao An so that we can discuss the divorce in person.”
