Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 674: Chapter 674: You Really Are a Calamity

Du Shujian, with a cold face, said, ”Mom, are you satisfied now?”

Zhang Xiaolu’s face was full of triumph: ”This is what I call cutting the Gordian knot, it’s good for everyone.”

She was naturally in a very good mood, eager to spread the news that Jiang Jingya, that damn woman, had suffered a setback.

Du Shujian felt like dying, suddenly standing up: ”Mom, you’ve been fighting with Auntie Jiang for half your life, but have you been happy all these years?”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaolu’s face changed drastically: ”Du Shujian, you are my son, do you really find your mother so displeasing?”

Du Shujian didn’t want to say any more to his own mother, turning to leave.

Just as he was about to step out the door, he paused: ”Mom, whatever happened back then, I don’t want to question it, but your scheming has ruined your son’s life. You’ve succeeded.”

After stepping outside, he stood there, took a deep breath, and then left a final word: ”As for Gong Fangyue’s issue, you resolve it yourself. Don’t let her bother me, or else suffer the consequences.”

After saying this, he left home without looking back.

He knew after such an incident, there was probably no chance with Jiayuan anymore; after all, he was tainted.

No matter if he touched Gong Fangyue or not, in the eyes of the onlookers, this matter had already been concluded. He could never hold his head high again—these wonderful things his good mother did. What could he do? Curse? Fight?

The situation escalated quickly. As soon as he arrived at work, his supervisor called him into the office, suspending him from his conductor position.

Du Shujian chuckled bitterly: ”I have nothing to say, just waiting for the organization’s final decision.”

Stepping out of the supervisor’s office, his anger was at its peak. When he reached the stairwell, he punched the wall. His knuckles were bloody and raw, with blood seeping through his fingers, but he seemed unable to feel any pain.

If he couldn’t be with the one he loved, the rest of his life meant nothing.

Returning from a business trip, Du Chuanqin, upon learning of his son’s situation, hit his wife for the first time: ”Zhang Xiaolu, you ruined your son. Are you satisfied now?”

Zhang Xiaolu never expected things to spiral out of control. Initially, she just wanted to cook the rice so that her son would have no choice but to marry Gong Fangyue, allowing her to laugh at Jiang Jingya and her daughter. She didn’t intend to ruin her son’s future.

She felt dizzy and confused; the events of that day seemed so strange. The more she thought about it, the more she felt there was a problem: ”Chuanqin, there might be a hidden hand in our son’s situation. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a coincidence that so many people witnessed it.”

Du Chuanqin looked at her coldly: ”You used this kind of dirty tactic with our matters back then, didn’t you?”

Zhang Xiaolu didn’t expect Du Chuanqin to bring up the past: ”Du Chuanqin, you’re a bastard. After all these years, have I ever been truly in your heart?”

But Du Chuanqin didn’t respond, only continued to look coldly at her: ”Sacrificing your life to ruin mine wasn’t enough for you. Now you want to drag our son into the abyss. You’re truly a disaster.”
