Chapter 617. Kick Down the Ladder


    Jiang Qifeis face showed sadness. Qingyun, no matter what, we once she said.


    Dont mention the past. Nian Qingyun hurriedly raised a hand and said, We were young. We made mistakes, and we paid for it.


    Alright, lets talk about Shuangwei, then. Earlier, you promised that youd be responsible for her, but now youre eating your words. Jiang Qifei lowered her head, wiping her tears. Whos gonna be responsible for my daughter now? You lied to us. You promised us before. Now, Shuangwei is awake, and you didnt even breathe a word about what you said. Isnt that uneptable?


    Its not that I dont want to keep our word, Nian Qingyun replied awkwardly. First, Junting doesnt want to marry her. Second, the Murong family doesnt want him to marry her. You see, Murong Cheng and I got divorced because of this. What else can I possibly do? I cant put a knife to his neck and force him to register for marriage at the civil affairs bureau, can I? Besides, Junting never listens to me.


    Jiang Qifei was aware of that. How do you n to solve this, then? Are we supposed to just let it go? Whos gonna make it up to my daughter for the harm and loss that shes suffered? Jiang Qifei sobbed, covered her face, and continued, Do you want her to stay single her entire life? Or do you want her to marry a divorced guy? You and your family are really going too far in bullying us.


    Shuangwei saved my mother. My whole family is grateful to her. I will try my best to help her with her career, and Ill treat her like my own daughter. My family and I will do anything we can to help her. She cant get pregnant now, and Im really sad about it. Ive done all that I can, but my son refused to listen to me. I now can only promise you that Ill certainly find a good man for her in the future. After saying that, Nian Qingyun stood up and said, I still have work to do, so please leave.


    Qingyun, youre kicking down thedder, Jiang Qifei said in disbelief.


    Nian Qingyun frowned. Thats not what kicking down thedder means. Qifei, Shuangwei is a soldier. The government pays her, and saving people is her duty. This time, shes been awarded and promoted to a higher position for what she did. I believe that she wont demand that my family be responsible for her because of what she did. Leng Zhe didnt do it, either. Only you are insisting.


    She and her father care about their reputations and responsibilities, so of course, I need to do this. Jiang Qifei raised a hand to wipe her tears while saying, But I didnt expect you to turn me away so cruelly.


    If I had wanted to turn you away, I wouldnt have even let you in. You should know clearly what this ce is. Nian Qingyun rubbed his temples, then called one of his subordinates and asked him to show his guest out.


    Qingyun, I didnt think that one day wed be like this. Jiang Qifei gave a bitter smile, then picked up her bag and left.


    Nian Qingyun spent a short while sitting there, tired, then returned to his desk. Seeing the files on his desk, he frowned slightly. When Xiao Xue returned, he knocked on the desk and said, Why didnt you lock these files in a drawer?


    Xiao Xue was puzzled at first, then lowered his head guiltily and responded, Sorry, I forgot. I was too busy.


    You forgot? Nian Qingyun said coldly. What if these files are highly important and confidential? Have you thought about the consequences? This isnt the first time youve made such mistakes. Go and put these in the shredder. Xie will be responsible for my daily routine from now on, and youll be responsible for reception.


    Yes, sir. Xiao Xues face paled as he picked up those files and left.


    In a meeting room in Shengting.


    Since April began, the weather in Xia City had gradually grown hot. Nian Junting casually sat in a chair with Luosang by his side. An Lan and a few otherwyers were sitting in front of him.


    So I hired a group ofwyers, but thewsuit has been dismissed. After listening to the report, he knitted his eyebrows and frowned.
