1306 Let Us Never Meet Again
The four children helped Li Gui up from the ground. By now, Li Gui’s cheek was already slightly swollen and there was a very obvious palm print on it.

“Oh! Mom! Someone hit your face!” Zhang Miao said angrily.

“It’s fine, Miao Miao. Mom is fine,” Li Gui comforted her.

Liang Shu patted the dust off her body and stood up, saying, “Hmph, she’s just a low-class wench. Her thick skin can definitely withstand a beating. How delicate can she be?”

“Who do you think you are! How dare you be so impudent in my house! Get lost!” Qiao Qiang pointed at Liang Shu and roared.

Liang Shu looked at Qiao Qiang in shock. Back then, when she married Qiao Qiang, she was still an innocent maiden while it was already his second marriage. It was Qiao Qiang who was way out of his league! How dared he chased them away at this moment! What a joke!

To her, it was simply too humiliating!

“How dare you talk to me like that! Qiao Qiang, have you forgotten how our family treated you back then!” Liang Shu said.

“Hmph, if you don’t mention the past, I might have let you off. Was your family very good to me in the past? It was your father who forced me to marry you, and it was also your entire family who forced me to do things that I didn’t like. In the end, weren’t you the ones who abandoned me too? Now that you’re in trouble, you want me to go back! Pfft! You’re not worthy! Get lost! Don’t let me see you again!” Qiao Qiang said angrily.

“Father, how can you say that! We had no choice back then! That’s… that’s all my maternal grandfather’s fault! You can’t blame everything on us!” Liang Lan said.

In any case, Old Master Liang had long died. Even if they blamed him for all those things back then, there was no evidence to prove the contrary. There was nothing that Qiao Qiang could say.

“You should just continue to call me Bastard Qiao! Weren’t you very happy calling me that back then? Why are you calling me father now?” Qiao Qiang said mockingly.

The Liang family had put in a lot of effort to sever ties with Qiao Qiang. Not only did they publish letters to disown Qiao Qiang in all the major newspapers, but they also asked Liang Guo to hold up a poster and display it as he paraded on the streets with Qiao Qiang. As for Liang Lan, she wrote a statement of repentance and read it out loud in front of everyone.

Qiao Qiang was not afraid of anything. Even if the Liang family acted like that and even if Liang Shu divorced him, he was not afraid at all. However, when Liang Lan called him “Bastard Qiao” in public, she said it with clear intent and did not look sad at all. Only then did he completely realize that it was all a scheme cooked up by the Liang family and that they were serious about denouncing him.

He realized then that his children would never return to his side again. Their surname was Liang, not Qiao.

Speaking of his children, he had felt guilty towards Qiao Yue for his entire life. When he first married Liang Shu, he had always intended to bring Qiao Yue’s family to the capital to live with him. After all, Qiao Yue was his flesh and blood and he did not want his son to live a hard life outside.

However, Liang Shu was already pregnant with Liang Guo at that time. She threatened Qiao Qiang that she would kill herself with pesticide if he brought Qiao Yue home. If he did that, she would die together with the baby!

Liang Shu already had to accept the fact that she needed to marry Qiao Qiang, a man who was already in his second marriage. Did she need to be a stepmother as well? This was something which she absolutely could not tolerate.

She made use of the baby she was carrying to prevent Qiao Yue and Qiao Qiang from reuniting. This was why Qiao Qiang was not even able to see Qiao Yue for the last time.

Qiao Qiang hated the Liang family, but even more than that, he hated himself for being so useless. If he had resisted the Liang family with all his might back then, perhaps they would all be living a different life now. Qiao Mei would not have grown up without her parents and Li Gui would not have remarried.

“Get lost! Get lost, all of you! I have nothing to do with you! Don’t come and look for me either! From now on, we should just mind our own business! Otherwise, I’ll make your Liang family lose everything!” Qiao Qiang said as he looked fiercely at Liang Guo and Liang Lan.
The two of them immediately realized that Qiao Qiang was very serious about what he said. Zhang Wei pushed the Liang family members out of the door and closed it tightly.

At this moment, Liang Shu suddenly had a heart attack and fell to the ground, twitching non-stop. Liang Lan was so frightened that she grabbed Liang Shu and shouted, “Mother! Mother, what’s wrong! Father, save Mother!”

“Close the door and let them shout. It has nothing to do with our family,” Qiao Qiang said coldly.

The few of them returned to the backyard and ignored the Liang family. Liang Lan and Liang Guo cried at the Qiao family door for a long time. It was only when they saw that Liang Shu could not hold on anymore that they rushed her to the hospital.
