Chapter 571: Secretly Punished by Someone

Gu Yuqing stretched out his arm to block them, but these people were like madmen; how could he stop them?

Before long,

someone shouted loudly: "Found them."

Hearing this, all those people excitedly ran over that way. Gu Yuqing's body went limp: "You can't—"

Before he could finish speaking, he was knocked to the ground by the rushing crowd.

And Ding Surong, being so young, had already been frightened pale by the commotion and retreated to the side. She didn't even think to go help her mother who had fallen; her mind was a muddled mess, with only one thought: It's over.

She had been forced to marry Liu Jiandong before; now that her own father was in trouble himself, what should she do?

The two resisted at first, but dared not make a scene anymore.

After they left, the family compound began to gossip: "What's going on?"

"What else could it be? Ding Youwen must have gotten into trouble."

"Stop talking nonsense."

"I never thought Ding Youwen, who looked honest, was actually hiding treachery inside."

"Before, Ding Youwen talked a lot outside about his family being eight generations of poor peasants, so poor they were ringing like bells. Judging by today's situation, he must have done plenty of despicable things; he's no good person anyway."

At this, a woman came over: "Rumor has it Ding Youwen was messing around with a married woman."

"What? Is what you're saying true or false?"

"How would I dare say such a thing recklessly? Just watch; this house will probably be taken away soon too."

"If it's true, then he deserves it."

"It's just the wife and children at home who suffer; how will they face people in the future?"

For a moment, everyone spoke with varying opinions.

No one noticed a man standing in the crowd. That person's eyes, venomous and dark, swept toward the Ding family's courtyard: Dare to make my Wang family a laughingstock, and your Ding family won't have a good life. Don't think this is over; this matter won't end until one side dies.

Indeed, this person was Jiang Huiwen's second son, Wang Mansheng. He never expected that after a business trip, his family's reputation would be ruined all over the streets; it was truly a complete loss of face.

Since his own family was made unable to hold their heads high by Ding Youwen, how could the Ding family escape unscathed?

Naturally, these people coming to the door today was his doing. If he didn't bring the Ding family to ruin and destruction, he couldn't quell the pent-up anger in his heart.

Chuxue knew nothing of the situation on this side, but she knew Ding Youwen and Jiang Huiwen were surely doomed.

She was thinking that after returning, she would ask Fu Yan Cheng to inquire about Jiang Huiwen's situation, then go see the woman personally to try and find out the truth of that year.

She wasn't worried at all that the woman would be unable to bear it and seek death; after all, someone of that age with such strong desires would hardly die easily. She would likely try every means to get her family to protect her.

She wasn't in the slightest hurry; taking it slow was fine.

Because the train was delayed, it took them nearly forty hours to reach Ha City. The temperature here was indeed much lower than in Jing City.

As Wang Changzheng led everyone out of the station, he saw someone holding a sign to pick them up. After smiling and exchanging brief pleasantries with the arrival,

the deputy factory director who came to meet them laughed: "Everyone has endured a long journey; let's get on the car first, settle down at the factory guesthouse, and tonight the factory will host a welcome dinner for everyone."

Wang Changzheng politely thanked the man, then called on everyone to walk outside.
