Chapter 872: Liang Jiaying Has Gone Missing V

Qin Shanyuan raised his head and looked at Liang Mingyu nervously. He had a hunch that what Liang Mingyu was about to tell him had something to do with Liang Jiaying’s fiancé.     

Liang Mingyu sighed and shook his head.     

“Jiaying’s fiancé was chosen by our parents. He is the son of the Qian Family.”     

“The son of the Qian Family?” Of course, Qin Shanyuan knew about the Qian Family. They were in the food business, just like the Qin Family. Moreover, they were their most powerful competitors.     

Qin Shanyuan had dealt with the people of the Qian Family more than once. That family was always selfish. They had a strong sense of self-interest, especially when it came to business.     

Liang Mingyu nodded. “Yes, it was Qian Yazhu. Back then, mom and dad had expected the He Family to attack the Liang Family after great-grandmother’s death. Therefore, they wanted to find a shelter for my sister, and the Qian Family was their best choice.”     

“The Qian Family is very cruel and ruthless, and they are very protective of their children. Mom and dad thought that if my sister could really marry into the Qian Family, even if the Qian Family would not help the Liang Family, they would still protect my sister.”     

After saying that, Liang Mingyu smiled bitterly. “But things did not go the way they wanted. Great-grandmother died without any warning, and we were caught off guard. Jiaying and Qian Yazhu’s wedding was only a month away, but by then, something had happened in the Liang Family. My parents decided to send my sister to the Qian Family. They didn’t want a wedding ceremony anymore, they just wanted the Qian Family to consider their old friendship and registered Jiaying’s name in the Qian Family’s household register so that she would become a member of the family.”     

Qin Shanyuan understood what he meant. “Your parents must love Jiaying very much. At that time, they just wanted to protect her and ensure her safety.”     

“Yes.” Liang Mingyu suddenly felt a little regretful that he had met Qin Shanyuan too late. He sighed, “But the Qian Family would not accept it. They will never acknowledge my sister even if they were beaten to death. My parents were forced into a corner. They both knelt down in front of them, but the people of the Qian Family only sneered. They ordered their servants to drive my parents away.”     

“At that time, my sister and I watched our parents kneeling before the Qian Family with our own eyes. Our hearts almost died from pain. After returning from the Qian Family, Jiaying said that she would not enter the Qian Family’s gate for the rest of her life. Even if she died on the street, she would not step into the gate of the Qian Family again.”     

Qin Shanyuan was so angry that his hand tightly gripped Liang Mingyu’s bed sheet. His eyes were so red that blood almost dripped out from them. “The people of the Qian Family really have the guts! Even if the Liang Family has fallen, how can they go back on what they promised?!”     

“Ha ha…” Liang Mingyu laughed mockingly. “This is the true heart of the Qian Family. When the Liang Family was doing well, how could they change their minds? They had taken a liking to the Liang Family’s unity and status, but when the Liang Family fell, Jiaying had no use for them. So, they trampled on my parents’ self-respect, cut off Jiaying’s escape route, and forced her to run away with me.”     

Qin Shanyuan closed his eyes in frustration. “If only I had met Jiaying earlier…”     

“You are not too late.” Liang Mingyu stared at Qin Shanyuan’s painful face and smiled. “Right now, you can be a man and protect her. This proves to me that you really love her. I’m relieved to leave her to you.”     

“Brother-in-law, don’t worry. I will definitely protect Jiaying well. I will not let her suffer any more harm!” Qin Shanyuan said confidently.     

Liang Mingyu’s face suddenly froze. The next moment, he laughed. “Qin Shanyuan, you changed your tone so quickly! Jiaying didn’t even say she would accept you, but you are already calling me brother-in-law? I’m afraid I cannot afford it.”     

“Brother-in-law.” Qin Shanyuan did not feel the least bit embarrassed. He shamelessly said, “Don’t worry. Jiaying will be mine sooner or later. This is my promise.”     

If Liang Jiahao heard what Qin Shanyuan said today, he would be relieved. Everything he had taught him, Qin Shanyuan had fully displayed it well.     

Liang Mingyu really wanted to pat Qin Shanyuan on the shoulder to cheer him up, but he could not raise his hand. He tried to raise it a little, but it hurt so much that it dropped again.     

“Shanyuan, don’t worry about this simple thing. The marriage between Jiaying and Qian Yazhu fell apart when our parents bowed down to the Qian Family. Since that day, Jiaying and I have never taken this marriage seriously. We won’t admit that Qian Yazhu was once Jiaying’s fiance. So… she is free.”     

Qin Shanyuan did not know why, but when he talked about Liang Jiaying, he stopped coughing.     

Moreover, it seemed like he had even recovered from a cold.     

Qin Shanyuan thought to himself, “This is the power of love! Love is so great!”     

“Brother-in-law…” Qin Shanyuan suddenly became shy. He gently poked Liang Mingyu’s hand. “Jiaying and that trash … Do they have feelings for each other?”         

Liang Mingyu was amused by Qin Shanyuan’s worried look. “Trash? Your description is perfect.”     

Qin Shanyuan smiled and poked Liang Mingyu’s hand again, urging him to speak quickly.     

As time was running out, Liang Mingyu did not want to mess with him. “To be honest, Jiaying never liked this trash. To oppose this marriage, she even ran away from home. Don’t worry, she’s still pure and her first kiss is still intact.”     

“Hahaha…” Qin Shanyuan suddenly grinned and smiled stupidly. “That would be the best. Jiaying is not blind to take a fancy to that trash.”     

Liang Mingyu saw Qin Shanyuan’s excitement and could not help but remind him. “Ten minutes left before the one hour will be over. Shanyuan, don’t be stupid. Hurry up and ask the guards to leave.”
