Chapter 2020: Framed
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wu Duo’s roommates did not know anything about those past issues between Cui Hua and Wu Duo. They were all from the engineering faculty and did not know much about the gossip from the agriculture faculty. Everyone thought that Cui Hua was just one of Wu Duo’s admirers.
Cui Hua told them that she and Wu Duo were from the same hometown and that they had an arranged marriage since they were young. She even took out an old photo of the two of them and showed it to his roommates. Wu Duo’s roommates did not suspect anything amiss and left him with Cui Hua. Then, the rest of them returned to the dormitory groggily.
At that time, Wu Duo was so dazed that he did not even know where he was. Cui Hua brought him to a bench nearby to sit down. After sitting in the wind for a while, Wu sobered up a lot. He was shocked to see that it was Cui Hua in front of him and not his roommates. He immediately wanted to get up and leave, but unexpectedly, Cui Hua hugged him and refused to let him go.
Cui Hua sobbed and related how Xie Jing had treated her badly during this period of time. As she wept, she showed Wu Duo the wounds on her arm.
Wu Duo was not interested to hear about these things. His feelings for Cui Hua were all in the past. Originally, Wu Duo had already decided not to dwell on the past, but he did not expect Cui Hua and Xie Jing to join forces to frame Qiao Mei.
Due to what they did, Wu Duo would never forgive them in this lifetime. Even if Cui Hua was suffering now, she deserved it. It was Cui Hua who was heartless enough to abandon him and choose XieJing, was it not?
Just as Wu Duo wanted to brush off Cui Hua and then return to his dormitory, Xie Jing suddenly appeared behind him and smashed the back of his head with a brick. Wu Duo instantly fell unconscious. By the time he was conscious again, he found himself in a hotel room and Xie Jing had come in with a big group of people to catch the adulterous couple in the act.
Cui Hua and him were both lying naked under the blanket in the same bed. No matter how Wu Duo tried to explain the situation to everyone, no one believed what he said. They even said that Wu Duo was a despicable person who dared not own up to what he did!
Wu Duo was forced to take a leave of absence from school by Capital
University and very soon after that, he received a notice of expulsion. Wu Duo’s university dream was officially over. His parents were both technicians. Ever since they started working at Qiao Mei’s factory, their family’s financial situation had been getting better and better, causing many people in the village to be jealous of them.
After what happened to Wu Duo, there were always people standing at the door of Wu Duo’s house and gossiping about him. They said all kinds of unpleasant things. There were even some villagers who wanted to chase Wu Duo out of the village because they said that he had sullied the village’s reputation!
Wu Duo’s parents had no choice but to buy a small house for Wu Duo in a remote village in the capital. They hoped that Wu Duo could live here peacefully for the rest of his life.
The old couple did not hope for Wu Duo to be able to get rich and make a name for himself. Their only wish now was for Wu Duo not to take things too hard. They did not want to have to bury their own child!
“That’s the full account of what happened,” Wu Duo said.
Qiao Mei stood up and walked around Wu Duo’s courtyard. There was not a
single weed to be seen in the entire courtyard. The tools in the storeroom were all placed out neatly and even the shovel had been carefully wiped clean of any soil. The windows of the house were bright and clear and the furniture in the house was very clean.
Wu Duo used the east room as his bedroom and the west room as his study room. There were many books in the house. Li Xue and Wang Wei had brought all these for him when they came to visit him.
Qiao Mei stood at the doorway and asked Wu Duo, “Do you still read often?”
Wu Duo was a student from Capital University after all. He still maintained the habit of studying. Even if he was not attending classes anymore, he could not fall behind in his pursuit of knowledge.
“Well, I’m bored anyway, so I might as well read more,” Wu Duo said.
“You have done a good job in tidying up this courtyard. Looks like you didn’t choose to completely let yourself go. There’s still hope for you,” Qiao Mei said.
Wu Duo’s house was in a very good location. In the future, this would be within the three inner ring roads of the capital! Even an inch of land here would be worth a lot of money! Based on the size of Wu Duo’s house, he could buy three to four large apartments next time!
“Don’t sell this house and just keep it in your possession. In the future, if the government wants to acquire it, don’t take money in exchange for the house. Ask for another house,” Qiao Mei instructed him..
