Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 1537 - 1539: Let No One Force Anyone

"Ah Zhu was truly too beautiful, so initially, Boss Luo couldn’t bear to have her entertain and serve those men with her charms. He doted on her for a few days, but because Ah Zhu always wanted to escape and was unwilling to get close to him, insisting that she already had a man, she enraged Boss Luo."

At this point, Xiao Fang might have felt that there were some things she couldn’t explain too clearly to Chiang Xiao, so she tried to summarize only the important details simply.

It was that Boss Luo, ignoring Ah Zhu’s resistance, forcibly took possession of her, and what’s more, he locked her up in a basement of his, tormenting her with all sorts of methods every day.

Later on, when the world became chaotic, and Boss Luo had his own troubles and grew tired of Ah Zhu, he restored her to her former beauty and pushed her out again, using Ah Zhu’s allure to deal with one problem after another for him.

Ah Zhu almost became a weapon in his hands, sent into the arms of who knows how many men, enduring countless tortures.

"Once, Boss Luo sent her to another man, who had the same interests as him but was even more deranged. He locked Ah Zhu up with chains, imprisoning her in a metal cage inside a dark chamber, where she was tortured for a whole three months."

Hearing this, although Chiang Xiao had already mentally prepared herself for Chiang Qingzhu’s trauma, she still clenched her fists tightly and bit down hard on her teeth.

She had once thought that with Chiang Qingzhu’s beauty and her foolish temperament, wandering alone in such a chaotic world, it was 99 percent certain she would have suffered such experiences.

But she never imagined that Chiang Qingzhu’s experiences were far more harrowing than she had previously thought.

No wonder she looks like a ghost now!

"Later on, that man’s enemy came knocking, capturing them all in one swoop, and Ah Zhu was also rescued. Qingqing’s dad was there to do a report and met Ah Zhu at a shelter. And for some reason, Ah Zhu, who was feared by everyone and whom no one was allowed to approach, latched onto him."

After hearing about Chiang Qingzhu’s experiences from the people at the shelter, Kuang Kanzhi’s compassion was stirred, and he brought her back with him.

The rest of the story is what Chiang Xiao already knows.

Xiao Fang bit her lower lip and added, "Moreover, I’m certain that nothing improper has ever happened between Ah Zhu and Kuang Kanzhi all these years!"

Chiang Xiao glanced at her with her icy eyes, responding indifferently.

"I understand, today, consider it my thanks to you, Madam Xiao," she said.

Full of anticipation, Xiao Fang looked at her and asked, "So, have you agreed to bring Ah Zhu back home with you?"

"No, I have no intention of doing that," Chiang Xiao said directly, "She’s an adult with a clear mind and is perfectly capable of deciding her own life. Moreover, I have no plans to acknowledge her."

"Chiang Xiao, you..." Xiao Fang was shocked, frowning as she said, "But you must know that this matter can’t be kept secret forever. It was fine before when you hadn’t met, and she kept silent about it, but now that you’ve met, there is no secret that does not get disclosed eventually. Others will come to know of it sooner or later. Besides, I don’t want to delay this matter either, and I hope to resolve it, for reasons I’ve already explained to you."

"You have your plans, and I have mine," Chiang Xiao replied coldly, "I won’t force you to do anything, but don’t you try to force me either."
