Chapter 130 He wanted to give you away to someone else.
At this moment, Zhu Ziqing felt as if she were in an endless abyss of darkness.
Everything outside of her mattered no longer; her heart and eyes were filled only with her mother's loving face.
Yesterday, her mother was able to talk to her with a smile, hold her hand, and gently tell her to take good care of herself.
But now, in just one night, the mother and daughter are separated by death.
Those heartwarming scenes are still vivid in my mind, but I can never go back to them.
Zhu Ziqing raised her tear-streaked face and stared straight at Zhu Shigou.
There was anger, hatred, and above all, deep resentment in his eyes.
"Zhu Shigou, Mom is gone. Such a big thing, how could you not even tell me? And you were trying to force me to agree to those ridiculous conditions you had for me. What do you take Mom for? What do you take me for?"
Her voice trembled, yet it carried a chilling coldness.
Zhu Shigou turned his head away, avoiding her gaze. A hint of unease flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his indifferent expression.
Seeing his appearance, Zhu Ziqing's anger burned even more fiercely.
She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost drew blood.
He secretly vowed in his heart: "Zhu Shigou, you wait, I will definitely avenge my mother, destroy everything you have, and make sure you never rise again!"
Uncle Zhong stepped forward, gently patted Zhu Ziqing's shoulder, and sighed: "Miss, Madam has suffered too much these past few years. Master... Alas, Madam couldn't bear it any longer, which is why she took this path."
Zhu Ziqing came to her senses, looked at Uncle Zhong, and bowed deeply: "Uncle Zhong, thank you for telling me the truth."
Then, she calmly turned her head away.
She stared coldly at Zhu Shigou, slowly curving her red lips into a chilling smile.
That gaze was like a sharp blade, piercing straight into Zhu Shigou's heart, making him feel inexplicably uneasy.
At this moment, Wan Qingsha stepped forward with a seemingly concerned smile on her face: "Ziqing, I know you are feeling bad right now. How about this, I'll take you to see someone, Jack Tan. He might be able to help you with your wife's funeral arrangements."
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Ziqing nodded expressionlessly: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Wan Qingsha was slightly taken aback, secretly annoyed: Zhu Ziqing agreed too easily. If only she had made her move back in Pengcheng, there might not be so much trouble now.
In fact, Zhu Ziqing knew perfectly well that she didn't really want to see Jack Tan.
She just wanted to use Wan Qingsha's power to leave the cold and ruthless Zhu family as soon as possible.
Thinking of her mother's tragic experience, she clenched her fists again.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his resolve for revenge grew stronger.
"Zhu Shigou, just you wait!" Zhu Ziqing thought coldly to herself.
……
Winter has arrived in the capital, and the temperature is so low it feels like it can freeze your blood.
A fierce wind howled through the streets and alleys, and the entire city was shrouded in a layer of cold frost.
Zhu Ziqing sat in Wan Qingsha's car.
The car's heater was blowing loudly, and the temperature was set extremely high.
But she still felt cold all over and couldn't stop trembling slightly.
Outside the car window, large snowflakes fluttered down, like an endless, sorrowful rain, sprinkling over the cold, lifeless city.
Zhu Ziqing gazed at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery outside the window, her heart filled with emotion.
Although this was the capital city where she grew up, she felt that everything had changed when she returned.
Even the cold seemed more biting than I remembered.
Her eyes instantly welled up with tears at the thought of her mother.
Sadness surged like a tidal wave, crashing against her heart in wave after wave.
She simply couldn't believe that her mother had passed away.
A voice inside me kept screaming, "This can't be! Mom must still be alive. That old fox Zhu Shigou must have hidden her away. Or maybe... this is just a nightmare. When I wake up, Mom will be right there beside me."
She kept deceiving herself, trying to escape the cruel reality.
Looking at Zhu Ziqing's pitiful appearance, Wan Qingsha felt a pang of pity.
He tried to say a few words of comfort: "Ziqing, don't be too sad..."
Before he could finish speaking, he met Zhu Ziqing's icy gaze, which seemed capable of killing, and immediately swallowed the rest of his words.
After a moment of silence, Wan Qingsha decided to tell her what he knew.
He carefully chose his words and said, "Ziqing, there's something I need to tell you. Jack Tan from the Sunshine Group has taken a liking to you."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ziqing turned around abruptly, looking at him with a puzzled expression: "What did you say? I don't know that Jack Tan at all, why would he be interested in me?"
Wan Qingsha smiled, a smile that held a deeper meaning: "Aren't you wondering how Jack Tan knows you? And why he took a liking to you?"
He paused, then continued, "It might be related to your good husband, Tan Haoyu."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ziqing was immediately enraged and glared at him, demanding, "What do you mean?"
Wan Qingsha still wore that smile, and said unhurriedly, "Think about it yourself, why did Tan Haoyu take you to that charity gala? Why was he able to become the president of Feiyang Technology? Why was their small company on the water acquired by the Sunshine Group?"
Zhu Ziqing snorted coldly: "Why?"
Wan Qingsha smiled smugly: "If it weren't for Tan Haoyu siding with Jack Tan, would a mere young man like him have been able to achieve anything? He understands many things once he thinks about them carefully."
Zhu Ziqing sat in the back seat of Wan Qingsha's luxury car, her brows furrowed.
His eyes were filled with confusion, and the words Wan Qingsha had just said kept echoing in his mind.
She racked her brains, but couldn't come up with a solution no matter how hard she tried.
Just then, my phone chimed; it was a WeChat message from Tan Haoyu.
Zhu Ziqing quickly clicked on it, and saw that it read: "Ziqing, listen to me, go with Wan Qingsha to see JackTan."
Zhu Ziqing bit her lower lip and hesitated for a moment.
In the end, she chose to trust Tan Haoyu, nodding slightly as if to encourage herself.
However, doubts grew wildly in my heart like weeds.
Zhu Ziqing looked up at Wan Qingsha, who was driving, and couldn't help but ask, "What did you mean by what you just said? Why is Tan Haoyu involved with Jack Tan?"
Wan Qingsha's lips curled into a meaningful smile.
He glanced at Zhu Ziqing in the rearview mirror and said slowly, "Ziqing, don't you understand? Look at this world, which man doesn't climb up the ladder for power? Tan Haoyu may seem glamorous now, but what is he compared to the real powerful? Maybe he just wants to hand you over to Jack Tan so he can use that to climb the social ladder."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ziqing's heart skipped a beat, and her hands unconsciously clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.
A flicker of panic crossed her eyes; her unwavering trust in Tan Haoyu was beginning to waver.
