As soon as the words fell, before Jiang Shang could react, Qu Yan had rushed out.
"Grandma!"
Qu Grandma's accident made her completely forget that she was possessing Lin Jingru's body. She rushed to the scene in Lin Jingru's body.
Tang Xuan was standing on the far side, his whole face pale with fright.
This old hag didn't seem to come from anywhere. She chased after him, scolding and hitting him, and then took out a rope and hanged herself.
The fact was right in front of him. Even if he didn't induce Qu Grandma to kill herself, he didn't stop her either. He was the first witness, and everyone would suspect him.
"What's wrong with you, Grandma... Why did you become like this..."
Qu Yan was alone and helpless, trying to tear open the tightly tied rope. Gu Siheng rushed in with his men and helped her rescue Qu Grandma.
Qu Grandma was rescued in time, but her breathing was still weak, and there was a deep purple rope mark on her neck.
Qu Yan rushed up and slapped Tang Xuan, grabbing his collar hysterically.
"What did you do?! What did you do?!"
Tang Xuan was completely stunned by the slap. He looked at Lin Jingru, who seemed to have changed into a different person, in disbelief.
Gu Siheng's subordinates were rescuing Qu Grandma. Jiang Shang ran to her side and pasted a life - saving charm on her to prevent the nearby little ghosts from occupying her body when they saw her in critical condition. Then everyone rushed Qu Grandma to the hospital in a hurry.
Brother Hao went to pay Qu Grandma's medical expenses. Without knowing what had happened, he rushed back with a bank card in a hurry to find Gu Siheng.
Gu Siheng whispered something to him and then walked back to Jiang Shang.
"Grandma Qu committed suicide on purpose."
Jiang Shang frowned, not understanding what he meant.
Gu Siheng handed over a bank card. "This bank card in Grandma Qu's pocket only has 1,000 yuan left in the balance."
"All the property in her bank accounts has been embezzled by Tang Xuan."
Jiang Shang fell silent. She finally understood what Grandma Qu meant in that phone call last night.
Grandma Qu had no relatives within three generations. She didn't even have enough money to maintain her life, let alone hire a lawyer to sue Tang Xuan.
She was determined to get justice for her granddaughter even when she was at the end of her rope. But public opinion alone was not enough. The netizens were just onlookers. So she asked Jiang Shang to report the real cause of Qu Yan's death. She chose the most extreme way, using her own death to make the matter a big deal.
Jiang Shang looked into the distance. Qu Yan had calmed down by now. Tang Xuan was comforting her softly.
Qu Yan casually used the excuse that she was afraid the incident would affect her career to fool Tang Xuan.
Tang Xuan hugged her and gently patted her on the back. "Ruru, I know you didn't mean it. You must have thought of your late grandmother, right?"
Qu Yan looked up at him. Her eyes were filled with tears. The fingernails hidden behind her back dug deeply into the flesh, drawing blood.
If she could, she would kill him right now with Lin Jingru's body!
Tang Xuan pretended to be gentle and coaxed her. "I can understand. My parents divorced early, too. You're just a child longing for the warmth of family."
Qu Yan disgustedly left his embrace. Her words were an obvious dismissal.
"That old grandma has no relatives left. She looks so pitiful. Although she caused me some trouble, I still want to wait for her to wake up and give me an explanation.
You don't have to stay with me. Go back and rest early."
Tang Xuan gently stroked her hair and then took the opportunity to make his request. "Ruru, you're such a kind - hearted girl. So could you transfer the 1 million yuan that my project still needs to me first?
Once my project is launched, I'll be successful. Then I'll go out to make money to support the family, and you just need to look beautiful. You won't have to work so hard like now."
Qu Yan pushed his hand away and firmly refused his empty promise.
"After we finish taking our couple's photos and I officially announce our relationship, the money will naturally be transferred to your account."
Seeing that she was playing hard - to - get with him, Tang Xuan pretended to be angry.
"Ruru, why do you have to force me? It's not the right time yet. You just think I'm poor, don't you? Yes, I don't have a car or a house now, and I don't have a stable job. But I have a heart that loves you!
I'm doing this for your own good. You really disappoint me!"
Tang Xuan changed from coaxing to half - threatening because Qu Yan, who had lost her life because of his sweet words, was now immune to his tricks.
She pushed his chest away and said the most love - struck words in the most sober tone. "Since you're not willing to officially announce our relationship, then let's call it quits. I need a public and stable relationship."
Hearing this, Tang Xuan finally panicked. He couldn't let the duck that was already in his mouth fly away. After hesitating for a long time, he finally compromised.
"Ruru, if you're willing to give for me, how could I not be willing to change for you?"
Qu Yan was held in his arms. From a perspective that Tang Xuan couldn't see, there was a meaningful smile on her face.
Grandma Qu was still in the emergency room. Suddenly, Tang Xuan's phone rang. He made an excuse that he had something to do and left first.
Noticing his actions, Jiang Shang quickly and quietly followed behind him. The man rushed to the stairwell.
"Hello, what's up?"
The person on the other end was urging him on. Tang Xuan confidently showed a lewd smile. "Don't worry. That stupid woman Lin Jingru is also a love - struck girl. Now she's so infatuated that she wants me to make our relationship public. The money will be in our hands sooner or later."
The person on the other end warned him. "Don't go too far. The news that you embezzled the Qu family's property has spread like wildfire. Your real information has been made public. You can't deceive many girls anymore."
"If the bait isn't big, how can you catch a big fish? Lin Jingru's friend committed suicide by herself. What does it matter to me? As for Qu Yan, I've already destroyed all the evidence of my killing her. An old dead woman can't sue me at all!
If she had been smart enough to hand over her property, I wouldn't have done that!"
Tang Xuan tried to excuse himself, looking like a man who had been dazzled by the easy money he had earned from deceiving girls.
"Retreat after you've made this fortune. If you get yourself into trouble, don't even think about getting your share of the profit."
The news of Grandma Qu's suicide had already leaked out. The person on the other end issued a final warning. Fortunately, Tang Xuan still listened to the man's advice and reluctantly agreed.
Jiang Shang was completely confused. Were they a gang of girl - deceivers? What was the share of the profit?
Seeing Tang Xuan take a taxi and leave the hospital, Jiang Shang quickly sent a message to Gu Siheng while taking a taxi to follow him.
Twenty minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of an office building. Jiang Shang watched Tang Xuan walk into a door with a sign that said "Love Training Class".
[If you want to fall in love, you must not miss this super - value training class! Do you want girls to be crazy about you? Do you want to have a girlfriend who obeys your every word? Professional tutors will teach you in person. It's not a dream to win the heart of your goddess soon!]
Jiang Shang stood at the door, looking at the exaggerated advertisement. Some rumors she had heard flashed through her mind.
Wasn't this the... PUA training class reported on the Internet?
She walked in, pretending to inquire about the training class, but was coldly rejected by the receptionist.
"Sorry, our training class is only for men."
Being turned away, Jiang Shang walked downstairs dejectedly with the training class advertisement in her hand. Just then, Gu Siheng rushed over after hearing the news.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Jiang Shang's mind. She stuffed the flyer into the man's arms and ordered him, "You go."
Gu Siheng, who had also seen the exaggerated advertisement, was like: ???
