Chapter 86 Verification
Looking around, Tang Jingting realized it was already quite late, so he decided to tidy up and rest in the study, planning to deal with these matters again at dawn.
However, Tang Jingting still tossed and turned, recalling those past events.
Another sharp pain shot through Tang Jingting's right ankle, making him extremely uncomfortable. He had to turn over and elevate his right leg to try and relieve the pain.
He has suffered repeated injuries to his right ankle, which have not yet fully recovered. He still experiences stinging pain, which affects his walking and causes him to limp.
He had seen many doctors, but the injury to his ankle was really serious; the bones were deformed and it would be difficult for it to fully recover.
This situation made Tang Jingting very uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to accept it.
He recalled his past with the Lü family, the life-saving grace they had shown him, and the marriage proposal his mother, Liu Huiya, had made after he got to know the Lü family. That's why he chose to repay their kindness by getting married in this way.
The Lu family members were all of good character. Yuan Yutong was a very beloved daughter of the Lu family. Her innocent and charming appearance touched Tang Jingting, so he agreed to the marriage.
Tang Jingting originally thought that he had escaped death and was destined for good fortune, but Yuan Yutong's disguise was too good and fooled them all.
That day, accompanied by the Yuan family, Yuan Yutong humiliated him in every way, calling him a cripple who dared to dream of marrying a swan and even suggesting that his legs be broken.
Fortunately, other things happened at the time, and Yuan Yutong and the others left in a hurry, so he was spared the misfortune of having his leg broken.
His ankle was already somewhat deformed and twisted, which led some people from the Yuan family to misjudge the situation, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Because of the incident caused by Yuan Yutong, Tang Jingting and his mother Liu Huiya went to the Lü family again, only to find that the Lü family's situation was not good either.
At that time, the Lü family learned about Yuan Yutong's actions towards Tang Jingting and gave them an explanation.
This marriage contract was originally arranged by the Tang family to repay a debt of gratitude, but in the end, something like Yuan Yutong's incident happened. The Lü family no longer needs the Tang family to repay a debt of gratitude through marriage, so the marriage contract is hereby nullified, and they expressed their apologies to them.
After all, they themselves didn't know whether Yuan Yutong had returned to the Yuan family or whether Lü Xinyan would come back. They didn't want to delay Tang Jingting's life-long happiness because of this marriage agreement, and they were too ashamed to talk about the life-saving grace anymore.
Because of Yuan Yutong, the Lü family felt extremely guilty towards the Tang family.
Although the Tang family intended to insist on the engagement, after what happened with Yuan Yutong, they were unsure of Lü Xinyan's situation and ultimately agreed to the Lü family's suggestion to cancel the engagement, intending to repay their debt of gratitude in other ways.
After Yuan Yutong's outburst, they were still shaken and decided to temporarily put off urging Tang Jingting to get married.
Furthermore, such an engagement arrangement was too hasty, and they did not want to cause any more trouble or danger.
However, the Tang family has recently encountered a lot of targeting and scheming retaliation. Tang Jingting and Liu Huiya are busy dealing with these troublesome matters, so they have not been able to visit Ningshui Village again, nor have they sent a thank-you gift to the Lü family.
At this moment, thinking of this matter, Tang Jingting felt somewhat guilty and ashamed, and decided to arrange for someone to go and take a look tomorrow.
Thinking about these things, Tang Jingting felt sleepy and prepared to rest.
However, the people sent out to investigate returned quickly, instantly bringing Tang Jingting back to his senses.
After hearing the report and confirming that the people arranged by the Yuan family had indeed arrived in Pengning Town and were all intent on taking action against the Tang family, Tang Jingting was further certain of the authenticity of the information in the letter and began to make his own plans.
The next day, just as dawn broke, Tang Jingting brought the letter to his mother, Liu Huiya.
The matter was of great importance, and Tang Jingting needed to discuss with his mother, Liu Huiya, whether they needed to leave Pengning Town as soon as possible to avoid being further schemed against and retaliated against by the Yuan family.
The Yuan family still wields considerable influence in this area, and the Tang family doesn't yet have the strength to confront them head-on.
Since they can't avoid it, they might as well leave first, preserve their strength, and then slowly make their move later.
Liu Huiya was somewhat surprised to see her son, Tang Jingting, arrive so early.
Since her husband had passed away, the large Tang family was now being supported only by her and her son.
Previously, due to his poor health, he had basically handed over the business affairs to his son, Tang Jingting.
Tang Jingting, on the other hand, has a good eye and skill in business, and over the years he has managed to pull the Tang family out of its slump.
However, Tang Jingting had an accident when he went out once and almost lost his life. Fortunately, Lü Daquan from the Lü family happened to be passing by and saved Tang Jingting's life.
To repay Lü Daquan for saving their lives, the Tang family was willing to marry Yuan Yutong, who was then the Lü family's daughter, and promised to treat her well for the rest of their lives.
Yuan Yutong agreed to the marriage at the time, and Tang Jingting would visit Lü Daquan and the others from time to time, bringing Yuan Yutong nice things.
Yuan Yutong never refused anything Tang Jingting gave her, and she always seemed to like Tang Jingting very much.
However, Tang Jingting was injured again while doing business, and his condition worsened.
Because of that injury, Tang Jingting's right ankle has not fully healed to this day, and he walks with a limp.
In that situation, Yuan Yutong cried very sadly, worried about Tang Jingting's injury, which made them feel even more sorry for Yuan Yutong, so they gave her even more nice things, and she even gave them several pieces of jewelry.
As a result, on the very day the truth about his background was revealed, the Yuan family and Yuan Yutong came together to warn Tang Jingting not to dream of a toad eating swan meat and not to continue harassing Yuan Yutong, or they would be very rude to him.
In order to warn Tang Jingting, the Yuan family injured his leg again.
Although it did not cause a fracture, it made Tang Jingting's ankle injury more serious, causing more pain, and it has not healed yet. His limp has also become more severe.
Throughout the entire process, Yuan Yutong made no comment, directly acquiescing to the Yuan family's actions and treating Tang Jingting like trash. When Tang Jingting inquired, she coldly refused, saying many hurtful things that dealt Tang Jingting an even greater blow.
Because of this incident, Tang Jingting saw through Yuan Yutong's true colors and did not regret breaking off the engagement.
