Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 957: Chapter 958: Smeared with Dirty Water

As the twelfth lunar month came around, Cheng Su was not only busy with her studies but also had business matters to attend to. She also had to prepare for the New Year by taking care of all the social and personal obligations, including those with various suppliers and manufacturers. Sending gifts at the end of the year had become a customary practice.

For this purpose, she discussed with the heads of various industries and finalized a variety of procurement lists. Song Xiaojang, who was in charge of general procurement, was being run ragged by her directions.

Qi Fenglian came to Cheng Su exasperated at this time, asking for leave, saying that she was mostly recovered from her illness and wanted to go back to deal with her matters with Zhang Jisheng.

Cheng Su asked, ”Did he really run back home?”

”Where else could he go? I called back home to ask, and he is indeed there,” Qi Fenglian said angrily. ”This person is outrageous. He’s spreading rumors at home that I’m too wild outside and don’t regard him highly, so I’m making a fuss about divorcing him. And also...”

Cheng Su felt something was off and asked, ”And what else?”

”And he’s also telling people that I want to divorce him because you and Taiguo are instigating it behind the scenes, trying to break up our family. What kind of person is this? How can he be so shameless?” Qi Fenglian said with hatred. ”I must have been blind to marry him in the first place.”

She wanted to know Zhang Jisheng’s whereabouts, so she called home. The daughter-in-law there, who was quite close with her, told her that the whole village was now gossiping about her and Zhang Jisheng wanting a divorce, and the rumors were detailed and elaborate.

This infuriated her to the point of physical pain. Clearly, it was Zhang Jisheng who was shameless, yet he dared to twist things upside down and falsely accuse them.

Cheng Su’s face darkened. ”Did he really say that?”

Qi Fenglian nodded and said, ”That’s why I have to go back. Otherwise, even the truth would be turned into lies by him. I can’t let him distort the facts.”

”But, can you handle it yourself if you go back?” Cheng Su asked again, ”Or, should I and Taiguo discuss and find a way to accompany you back?”

Qi Fenglian was too soft-hearted, and with someone as despicable as Zhang Jisheng, Cheng Su was afraid she would suffer.

”It’s fine. What’s the worst he could do to me? It’s year-end, and you’re both busy, don’t waste time on me. If things get out of hand, I’ll call you,” Qi Fenglian said firmly this time. Through this incident, she finally saw the inherent despicability of Zhang Jisheng.

Seeing her insistence, Cheng Su let her go, but there wasn’t a bit of optimism in her heart.

Zhang Jisheng’s actions were obviously to pre-emptively attack, but what was the purpose? Anyone could guess it was because he didn’t want to divorce Qi Fenglian.

Cheng Su wouldn’t bother with other matters, but if Zhang Jisheng falsely accused them of instigating the divorce, she would be the first to oppose it.

Even if they did instigate, it was because Zhang Jisheng himself was despicable and incompetent.

After Qi Fenglian left, Cheng Su waited for Qi Taiguo to return and told him about the incident.

Qi Taiguo was so angry he almost blew the roof off, angrily saying, ”Zhang Jisheng, I see this bastard hasn’t learned his lesson. I knew he wouldn’t behave. I should’ve known to keep him in the shelter a few more days.”

”Now’s not the time to say that. We need to figure out a solution. I think Sister definitely can’t handle the Zhang family on her own. We can’t just sit and wait,” Cheng Su said.

Qi Taiguo coldly said, ”Don’t worry, the things Zhang Jisheng did, he has a record. I made sure the police chief wrote him a confession letter back then. He can’t deny it!”

Cheng Su let out a slight sigh of relief, but they didn’t expect this storm to completely sweep over them.
