Thank you Q for rewarding "Heart as vast as the sea" sister. Mwah~
********************************
The aftermath from Jian City has still affected Li Shuning and Zhang Momo.
On Li Shuning’s side, many people have approached her, trying to console her and the like. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
On Zhang Momo’s side, Zhang Mingyang’s father has come several times, wanting to take her home, but she refused.
Due to issues with conduct and dereliction of duty, Zhang Mingyang has been directly dismissed, which means his political career is essentially ruined.
Zhang Mingyang’s father is quite old now and has already retired. His mother hasn’t been in good health for a few years and resigned even before reaching retirement age.
Now that Zhang Mingyang’s reputation is tarnished, he certainly can’t remain in Jian City.
Mr. Zhang naturally thought of some things, wanting to take Zhang Momo back to the Zhang Family as a bargaining chip, but the Li Family wouldn’t give him any chance.
Zhang Mingyang and Li Shujiao are preparing to return to Du City in disgrace.
The discovery of their affairs was also thanks to Li Shuning.
The aftermath of the heavy rain in Jian City is something Li Shuning also has to consider. She can’t just leave and wash her hands of it, as it affects ordinary citizens.
So, she secretly informed Mayor Lin of some hidden dangers in Jian City.
For the city near Jian City, she informed Song Ziheng, who has been waiting for an opportunity, and this is certainly one.
Speaking of it, the Lin Family and the Li Family have a connection, and Mayor Lin is of the direct lineage.
Li Shuning thought about it and decided to curry favor.
Mayor Lin made further progress because he contributed to this matter.
As for Zhang Mingyang, messing around with his sister-in-law and neglecting his duties, he was naturally despised.
Many people felt it was unfair to Li Shuning.
For many years, the things Li Shuning did for Zhang Mingyang were clear to many, never expecting it to end like this.
The night Zhang Mingyang and Li Shujiao were caught sleeping on the floor together was because Li Shuning drove over in a hovercar and opened the door, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence, with them messing around and the door wide open?
With Zhang Mingyang being so cautious, it’s impossible for him to let this matter be discovered. If it were just a matter of work negligence, with the Li Family backing him, there would likely be no big deal.
Now, however, having slept with his sister-in-law, it brought shame to Li Shuning, and you could say it slapped the face of the Li Family. Moreover, it was plainly seen by others, the impact was too great.
Thus, Zhang Mingyang’s downfall can also be considered the first step for Li Shuning moving forward.
Song Ziheng, thanks to Li Shuning’s reminder, had already gone to Lan City. After the events in Jian City occurred, he quickly dealt with Lan City’s matters, rushed back overnight, and arranged to meet Li Shuning, cautiously looking at her, "Sister, are you okay?"
Li Shuning chuckled, "What could be wrong with me?"
"Zhang Mingyang he and Shujiao..."
Li Shuning glanced at Song Ziheng, "Actually, I’ve known about this for a long time. Seeing is believing; plus, because of your family’s matters, I went back to Du City."
"Forget it, one is a sister I’ve loved till now, and the other is someone I’ve always liked. If they’re happy together, naturally I will bless them."
"But sister..."
"Alright, Ziheng, speaking of which, aren’t you also a victim? Shujiao didn’t want the handsome and dashing young man and insisted on seducing her brother-in-law. You must’ve been hurt too, right? Haha, let’s not talk about it, it will all pass, I can only say that my eyes were blind."
Seeing Li Shuning still capable of joking, Song Ziheng felt relieved.
"Sister, are you planning to divorce Zhang Mingyang?"
Li Shuning raised an eyebrow, "Of course, let’s wait for them to come back."
She’s planning to watch a good show.
"Ziheng, you shouldn’t have rushed back like this. You should go back, there are probably tons of things to deal with in Lan City, right?"
"Sister, it’s okay. You did so much in Jian City before and told me all about the situation. After I went to Lan City, I worked hard, and Lan City didn’t have any issues this time, those parasites were also found."
"That’s good, but you should still return early."
"Alright, sister, as long as you’re okay. If you ever need me for anything, you must tell me."
Song Ziheng came quickly and left quickly.
A day later, Zhang Mingyang and Li Shujiao returned to the Li Family.
With such a big issue, they had to come back to the Li Family to explain.
Throughout, Li Shujiao looked completely bewildered.
She couldn’t understand why it turned out like this, her brother-in-law was supposed to reach the highest point, why did it become like this now?
She was only puzzled about Zhang Mingyang’s issues; as for her and Zhang Mingyang’s matter, she wasn’t scared at all.
What’s there to be afraid of? The Li Family owes her such a great favor; what is there to fear? At worst, she could just reveal everything then.
She was eager to see if the Li Family valued their reputation more or their position.
When the two arrived at the Li Family, they found that all the members of the Li Family were present today.
For a moment, Zhang Mingyang’s legs were trembling a bit; the Li Family members weren’t ordinary people, their aura was too strong.
Li Baoguo and others were all present.
Seeing the two enter, Li Zhongguo directly threw the teacup in his hand at them.
Zhang Mingyang didn’t dare to dodge, but Li Shujiao pulled Zhang Mingyang away.
"Li Shujiao, you still have the face to come back, wasn’t your sister good enough to you, or did she wrong you? Yet you did such a thing, abandoning a perfectly good Song Ziheng to seduce a married man?" Sun Xiaolan directly scolded.
Even though this matter was already known earlier, seeing Li Shujiao’s defiant look made Sun Xiaolan furious.
In Li Shujiao’s heart, however, there was a trace of glee, "Sister? What kind of sister is she to me? Your Li Family made my biological parents take the fall for you, earning today’s prominence, what about me? I became a poor soul with no father or mother, recognizing a thief as my father, I just want revenge on you, so what?"
Li Shujiao said these words, wanting to vent her frustrations. She originally thought the Li Family’s expressions would change drastically, but surprisingly, their eyes only showed deep ridicule.
Li Shujiao’s heart suddenly felt a strange panic.
Li Zhongguo stood up, "I never thought I, Li Zhongguo, raised an ingrate. The so-called Li Family’s prominence because of your parents, who knows where you got such a theory."
"Indeed, you’re not our child, yet all these years, we treated you like our own daughter. Ask yourself, have we ever treated you poorly?"
Li Shujiao was taken aback, after thinking, it seemed indeed not: "Yes, you have indeed treated me well, but wasn’t it out of guilt? My sister could choose her husband freely, yet you chose Song Ziheng for me, that coward."
Li Zhongguo was enraged to the point of laughing, "Song Ziheng is a coward? Do you know, Song Ziheng has already gone to Lan City, yes, that’s Lan City next to Jian City, fully taking charge of the affairs there. His path ahead will only get better, the Song Family and my Li Family are different, the Song Family has the ability to pave the way for him. The Song Family, given your original status, could you even reach?"
