Chapter 1018: Farce!
Seeing Zhao Chunhua confronting Jiang Feng directly, accusing him of being a murderer, the Nangong Family members in the morgue were stunned!
Nangong Qingcheng quickly stepped in front of Jiang Feng to block the frenzied Zhao Chunhua, hastily saying, "Aunt, what nonsense are you talking about? Why do you say Jiang Feng is a murderer? What does the death of my cousin and her husband have to do with him?"
"Qingcheng, step aside! Don't you understand? Our Nangong Family's peaceful days started going downhill the moment he joined us!"
Zhao Chunhua's eyes flashed with rage, "First, it was you, Qingcheng. Of all people in the world, you were married off to this useless man, causing your parents to hang their heads in shame! Now look, he's brought misfortune, leading to my daughter's and son-in-law's deaths. He's a jinx, a plague, ruining our family. Of course, I want him to pay with his life!"
In truth, Zhao Chunhua had no idea it was Jiang Feng's appearance last night that frightened Nangong Yan and Jin Shixiang to death. She merely had anger but nowhere to direct it. The appearance of Jiang Feng, this so-called "bad luck star," naturally made her vent all her fury toward him!
Oddly enough, though Zhao Chunhua's words seemed like mere tantrums, they instantly resonated with the entire family.
Upon reflection, everyone thought it might just be true. The Nangong Family, though modestly affluent before, always lived harmoniously.
Everything changed when Jiang Feng entered this family, causing one issue after another, finally leading to the tragic demise of yet another young couple. He couldn't escape the blame!
"Aunt, how can you say that? What does this have to do with Jiang Feng? I never thought Grandfather was confused in marrying me to Jiang Feng, and I won't let you describe Jiang Feng with the word 'useless'! He's my husband—past, present, and future. Insulting him is like insulting me!
Nangong Qingcheng argued fiercely, her attitude unprecedentedly firm!
Jiang Feng, who initially wanted to say something, felt something strange in his heart when he saw Nangong Qingcheng standing in front of him so unwaveringly.
At this moment, even though he was as strong as hundred-refined steel, his gaze softened, quietly watching Nangong Qingcheng, his affection deepening.
"Ha! Nangong Qingcheng, you've already been brainwashed by this Jiang. I won't bother arguing with you. Step aside now. I must settle this with that useless man. My daughter despised him the most in her life; I want her to rest in peace!"
Zhao Chunhua sneered fiercely, forcibly pushing Nangong Qingcheng aside, attempting to rush toward Jiang Feng again.
Suddenly, Nangong Honghu, who had been standing at the back with a darkened face, spoke harshly, "Stop right now!!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chunhua turned her head, still glaring at Nangong Honghu with utter resentment!
"Zhao Chunhua, aren't you satisfied with the mess you've made here? Bringing disgrace even to the morgue! It was I who decided to marry Qingcheng to Xiao Feng back then. If you have any grievances, take them up with me. Don't make things difficult for the two children!" Nangong Honghu scolded angrily.
"Dad! You're still taking their side. Isn't my daughter your granddaughter too? Her death doesn't hurt you? You are obviously being unfair; I... I..."
Zhao Chunhua was so furious that she almost fainted again, her eyes rolling back.
Wu Peixia could only come up to support her, whispering, "Enough, Chunhua, stop it already. Arguing with Dad won't lead to anything good. Let's not make a scene in the morgue..."
"Sister-in-law, didn't you see, the Old Master is biased, siding with an outsider rather than my daughter. My daughter is so unfortunate!"
Zhao Chunhua cried, tears streaming down, then ran overwhelmingly distressed to hug her daughter's body, wailing, "Xiao Yan, look, your body isn't even cold yet, and your family has already forgotten about you! You poor child... If you're gone, mom doesn't want to live either. I'll join you if I must..."
Nangong Honghu watched, filled with sorrow, closing his eyes as murky tears ran down from his old ones. He trembled, saying, "Zhao Chunhua, listen to me! I'm deeply saddened by what happened to Xiao Yan too! But you can't just vent your anger on someone innocent. Xiao Feng owes you nothing!"
Nangong Qingcheng, witnessing her family inexplicably turning their anger on Jiang Feng, also wept with frustration!
She and Jiang Feng had come with good intentions to see Nangong Yan and Jin Shixiang for the last time. Who would have thought her aunt would act so unreasonably?
At this moment, she was filled with immense self-blame, feeling that had she known things would end up like this, they should never have come. That way, Jiang Feng wouldn't have suffered such cold treatment!
"Where's Shixiang? My precious son, Shixiang?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed from outside the morgue.
Soon, Jin Kela and Geng Qiujie, looking distraught, rushed in.
Geng Qiujie looked even worse than Zhao Chunhua, with disheveled hair, her once-graceful image vanished, as she staggered with her plump body swaying.
She and Jin Kela had just found out about their son's accident this morning, having slept too deeply the night before with their phones off. They nearly went insane upon hearing the tragic news, rushing over, fainting several times while crying on the way!
"Nangong Jinming, Zhao Chunhua! Tell me the truth; how did my son die? How could he end up in a car accident? Was your daughter up to something, causing my son's death?"
Wow, once Geng Qiujie showed up, she was even more unreasonable than Zhao Chunhua, directly confronting Nangong Jinming and his wife.
Now that both children are gone and they couldn't remain in-laws anymore, they might as well tear off the pretense!
"Geng Qiujie, how dare you say that? Your son was driving. He caused the accident and killed my daughter. I haven't even settled accounts with you, and you dare to lodge a false counterclaim?"
The explosive Zhao Chunhua immediately flared up again, glaring at Geng Qiujie in rage.
"Nonsense! My son's driving skills have always been excellent. How could he get into an accident out of nowhere? Your daughter must have been fooling around in the car, distracting him! Zhao Chunhua, I always knew your daughter had a vixen's look, jinxing husbands! Now great, she's jinxed my son to death. Your entire family is cursed, knowing you is my worst misfortune ever. I spit on you!!" Geng Qiujie screamed!
"Geng Qiujie, you...you didn't say that last night. Dare to spew lies, I'll fight you!!"
Zhao Chunhua could no longer hold it in when she heard that, lunging forward to fight Geng Qiujie with a wild frenzy.
And Geng Qiujie wasn't one to be trifled with either, immediately grabbing Zhao Chunhua in a brawl. The two women fought with relentless hysteria, inseparable!
