Chapter 232 You Have Other Excuses Too
"Looks like you've become famous!" Qi Tiao sat next to Lu Qianqian, looking at the news on her phone. "But you can barely see your face, so I doubt anyone would know it's you."
Lu Qianqian shook her head and said, "I feel a deep sense of apprehension, after all, netizens are incredibly powerful!"
"Is that so?" Shichijo said dismissively.
Less than half an hour later, an explosive news story appeared online.
"The woman is suspected to be from a wealthy family!"
The news article not only featured photos of Lu Qianqian, but also included high-definition videos taken at the hotel, which even showed her face.
However, the video doesn't look like hotel surveillance footage; it seems to have been secretly filmed by someone behind the camera.
The person behind you?
Lu Qianqian immediately thought of Dong Hanlin's brother—Jian Yanjun!
"It was him!" Lu Qianqian was stunned. Why would he do this?
Did Dong Hanlin know about this matter?
However, there was no time for Lu Qianqian to think, because after hearing the news, Grandma Rong rushed over as quickly as possible!
At this moment, Lu Qianqian sat upright, maintaining the highest level of vigilance down to the last hair.
Grandma Rong sat opposite Lu Qianqian, holding seven tea leaves that had been brought over. Aunt Lanhua stood behind her, looking like an old lady from a wealthy family in the last century, very imposing and intimidating.
Lu Qianqian felt nervous. Although she hadn't done anything wrong, she couldn't help but tremble when faced with Old Madam Rong's expression.
"Lu Qianqian!" After a long while, Old Madam Rong finally spoke slowly, drawing out the last syllable, which had a rather sinister feel to it.
Lu Qianqian shivered instantly. The voice was like a demon demanding her life, it was truly terrifying: "I'm here, Madam."
"Do you know why I came to find you?" Old Mrs. Rong continued to ask her.
Lu Qianqian pursed her lips, wondering whether she should say she knew or not.
So, he cautiously looked to the seven people next to him for help.
After seeing Lu Qianqian's gaze, Qitiao immediately took a few steps back. Seeing that Madam Rong had no reaction, he strode away and went to find a place to call Rong Changqing for help.
After Qi Tiao left, Lu Qianqian became even more frightened. She couldn't help but take a few deep breaths and was about to answer when Old Madam Rong beat her to it.
"What, you're afraid to answer?"
Lu Qianqian shook her head and said, "It's not that I'm afraid to answer, but I don't know why the old lady came to see me!"
"You don't know?" Old Madam Rong sneered, "The news is all over the place, and you're telling me you don't know!"
"Oh, so that's what it was about," Lu Qianqian said casually. "Those were just some unscrupulous media articles, I didn't take them seriously. I didn't expect it to alarm you, Madam."
Madam Rong narrowed her eyes slightly, scrutinizing her for a long time before saying, "Don't take it seriously? Heh, now that you're with Changqing, your every move outside no longer represents yourself. Any slight disturbance will damage the Rong family's reputation, and you're telling me you don't take it seriously?"
Lu Qianqian's heart skipped a beat, realizing she had said the wrong thing. She immediately changed her attitude and apologized: "Madam, I'm sorry, it's my fault, I shouldn't have..."
"Wait, is this your fault?" Old Madam Rong suddenly raised her voice and scolded, "Lu Qianqian, you actually did such dirty things outside, I think the Rong family can no longer tolerate you!"
"Huh?" Lu Qianqian was completely bewildered. Had she been tricked by Old Madam Rong?
"Madam, you're mistaken. I said this was just something unscrupulous media outlets wrote about, and my apology was because I was accidentally photographed by the media, not because I did anything wrong!"
"Still trying to argue!" Old Madam Rong's face was contorted with anger. "If you didn't do anything wrong, why are you apologizing?"
"what?"
"Lu Qianqian, I never expected you to be this kind of woman!"
"what?"
"Alright, you're moving out tonight. You don't deserve to live here at all; I find you disgusting!"
Madam Rong's deliberate distortion of the situation chilled Lu Qianqian to the bone.
She respected her not because of her title and status as Madam Rong, but because she was Rong Changqing's grandmother.
That's why she was always very careful and extremely respectful and polite.
I never expected that no matter what I did, I would be wrong in their eyes!
Lu Qianqian suddenly chuckled, looking calmly at Old Madam Rong, and said, "Old Madam, if I were your granddaughter, you wouldn't have made such a hasty decision to drive me away without even knowing the facts."
Madam Rong was taken aback. She hadn't expected Lu Qianqian to use her granddaughter as a comparison. She couldn't help but sneer inwardly, "You think you're worthy of being my granddaughter?"
Her face darkened, and she said coldly, "My granddaughter would never be involved in such a scandal. Lu Qianqian, your reputation is already bad, and now you've caused such a mess. How can I accept you as my granddaughter-in-law?"
Lu Qianqian also frowned slightly. She was angry, but she was still wary of Rong Changqing's grandmother, so she couldn't vent her anger and could only endure it.
"Lu Qianqian, if you really like Changqing and want what's best for him, you should leave him!" Old Madam Rong's voice suddenly softened a lot, as if she were negotiating with Lu Qianqian in a conversational manner.
"Although you were injured while saving Zhecheng, Zhecheng was also kidnapped because of you. Because of this, I didn't want you to stay here any longer. I only gave you a chance because you were bleeding and injured, but what did you do? You didn't cherish it at all!"
"Actually, which successful young master with a large family doesn't have a harem of women? As long as you don't covet the title of Changqing's wife, I can let you stay by Changqing's side and ensure you won't have to worry about food or drink for the rest of your life."
Lu Qianqian looked up at the old lady and laughed angrily: "Madam, you are a woman too, how can you say such things? Did you also allow the old master to keep women outside?"
"Outrageous!" Old Madam Rong glared fiercely at Lu Qianqian. "With a mouth like yours, how could you possibly grace such a refined occasion and become Changqing's wife?"
Lu Qianqian was so angry she almost lost her temper. This old lady was completely unreasonable; she only allowed officials to set fires while forbidding ordinary people to light lamps!
She was the one who said it, but now she's being blamed.
It's really infuriating.
"Madam, I understand now. No matter what I do or say, you will never be satisfied. Today's incident was just a trigger. Even without this, you would have found another excuse to get rid of me, wouldn't you?"
