Long Ju forgot that, unlike Mo Qiang whose reputation was in slumps at every time, she was a scum gentlewoman at the surface at least. She had always pretended to be a virtuous leader who always thought and worked for her territory, that was how she had cleared most of the corruption cases.
What was more there were a few unscrupulous merchants who helped Long Ju by hiding her corruption, but that was when they all were riding the same boat of pleasure. However, once the boat started to sink, then those merchants would definitely try to save their own skin. They wouldn't stay and watch the ship sink with their profits, they would undoubtedly pressurize Long Ju into taking a step back.
Unless Long Ju wanted to let go of her position, there was no way she would be able to continue acting stubbornly like this.
More importantly, Long Ju and Madam Long were the ones who were in the wrong from the beginning even if they were to ensure a lawsuit then the ones who would have to suffer would be them.
"Just wait," Mo Qiang said to Mo Xifeng who turned to look at her sister and then heard Mo Qiang say, "We will see who has the more to lose."
Mo Qiang sneered with a cold expression on her face. freewebnoveℓ.com
When the two of them returned home, Mo Qiang could see that Xie Jie was pacing inside the living room. So when she entered, he noticed her at once however just as Mo Qiang expected when he did not see his brother, his expression fell.
For a second, Mo Qiang was sure that he was going to cut off her lips for failing to get what he wanted despite him kissing her as a bribe.
"Where is Brother Li?" He asked with some slight anger in his voice, and Mo Qiang did not blame him. If she had kissed someone she did not like all for the sake of her brother and did not see her brother return, she would be just as angry.
"There is no need for you to get angry," she stated in case Xie Ji were to really lose his temper at her. She looked at him with her hands in the air, she sighed before explaining the situation to Xie Jie, "It seems to me that Long Ju is regretting what she did to your brother. More importantly, he is carrying the child of the Long family, which is why the situation is a bit messier. However, I don't think that Long Ju will be able to hold on for a long time, just give it two weeks at most or a week at the least."
When Xie Jie heard that it was Long Ju's stubbornness that was making it difficult for his brother to return, he coldly sneered. His blue electric eyes turned stormy as he said, "It was her who ruined everything. She caused my brother to be humiliated like that, and she still thinks that she can keep him by her side. Even if my brother was a fool in the past, it does not mean that he would be so foolish that he would let her control him even after such a humiliation."
Xie Jie knew his brother. His elder brother was a rather stubborn individual, in the past when he told him that he should stop chasing after Long Ju, Xie Li hadn't listened to him. His brother informed him that he would rather hear the refusal from Long Ju's mouth than suppress his emotions and never speak about them.
