Chapter 259 - 259 Bankrupt
259 Bankrupt
“People like Shen Xi can’t bear to see others doing well. Xue’s relationship is so sweet. What’s wrong with having a reliable man to rely on?” Liu Cheng said.
Jiang Xue also said, “I didn’t want to, but Brother Cheng dotes on me and loves me. I’m naturally willing to be his little woman. However, even though I don’t have much ability, I still have the Jiang family behind me. Brother Cheng and I are of equal social standing, so we can’t be considered as relying on each other.”
Zhao Yuan suddenly burst out laughing, causing everyone to be confused.
Shen Xi said to Jiang Xue kindly, “Jiang Xue, do you want to go back and ask your parents why they’re in such a hurry to settle your marriage with Xiang Cheng?”
Jiang Xue snorted coldly. “Of course it’s because Brother Cheng can’t wait to be with me.”
“Are you sure it’s not because your family has gone bankrupt, so your parents are in a hurry for you to find a rich husband?”
Shen Xi’s voice was not very loud, but it instantly caused an uproar in the class.
“Shen Xi, what nonsense are you spouting?” Jiang Xue said angrily.
Liu Cheng also looked at Shen Xi in disbelief and said, “Shen Xi, no matter how jealous you are of Xue, you can’t say such ridiculous things, right?”
“This seems to be real!” Su Ni said softly at the side.
Liu Cheng turned around and glared at Su Ni. “Su Ni, haven’t you been beaten enough? What nonsense are you spouting?”
Ever since Su Ni had been kicked out of the three-man team, she had become the target of Liu Cheng and Jiang Xue’s bullying. Liu Cheng had hit and scolded her a lot.
Hence, when she saw the news of Jiang Xue’s family’s bankruptcy on her phone, Su Ni felt as if she was about to be freed.
Shen Xi laughed, “If you don’t believe me, you can just go to any news website and you’ll see it. After all, the news of such a large enterprise going bankrupt is not small.”
Jiang Xue naturally did not believe Shen Xi’s words, but more and more students around them picked up their phones and looked at Jiang Xue while discussing in low voices.
The uneasiness in Jiang Xue’s heart began to spread. She quickly took out her mobile phone, opened a news website, and saw the most popular news “Jiang Corporation’s bankruptcy”.
Jiang Xue’s hands could not help but tremble. She sat in her seat and did not react for a long time.
Impossible. She had just returned to the Jiang family not long ago. She had not enjoyed enough wealth and glory. How could the Jiang family go bankrupt just like that? She did not believe it! Jiang Xue shook her head and called her parents.
However, Jiang Xue called several times and even called the house phone several times, but she could not get in touch with Jiang Lun and Xia Chun.
Jiang Xue didn’t believe it and wanted to call again, but Xiang Cheng’s call came.
Jiang Xue looked around at the students who were watching the fun and immediately rushed out of the classroom with her mobile phone. She picked up Xiang Cheng’s call in an empty corner.
“Brother…”
Before Jiang Xue could finish her sentence, Xiang Cheng started cursing at her. “Jiang Xue, you dare lie to me with your parents. Knowing that the company is about to go bankrupt, they set up a trap for us, a family of liars!”
Jiang Xue was already so anxious that her heart was about to burst. When she heard Xiang Cheng’s words, she instantly burst into tears, “Brother Cheng, no, it’s really not like this. I really didn’t know about this. My parents couldn’t have gone bankrupt so suddenly. Trust me, there must be something more to it.”
On the other end, Xiang Cheng directly spat, “Something more to it? My dad investigated clearly this morning. Not only is your family bankrupt, but you’re also in debt. F*ck off! I was wondering why you suddenly asked me out that day. It turned out that you were deliberately setting me up. Jiang Xue, don’t let me see you again. Otherwise, I’ll beat you up every time I see you.”
Jiang Xue was in tears. She had never encountered such a big thing. At this time, she could do nothing but cry.
Jiang Xue begged and explained, “Brother Cheng, I really didn’t plot against you. I got engaged to you purely because I love you. Brother Cheng, please believe me. Don’t be like this. I’m scared, I’m really scared.”
On the other end of the phone, Xiang Cheng continued to scold Jiang Xue fiercely and hung up the phone.
Jiang Xue’s face was full of tears. She called her parents, hoping that they would tell her that everything was fake.
