Chapter 207: Not a single word of comfort

Chapter 207: Not a single word of comfort

Lang Lan heard that Heng Huizhong had returned from a servant. She was not very concerned and didn't even try to hide the small party.


"Lady Lang, Mr. Heng asked you to meet him in the study," said the Butler.


"Why must I go there?" Lang Lan acted to be displeased. In front of her friends, she had always been very attentive to the image she presented of herself. Just now, everyone had been throwing envious glances in her direction since she was treated fairly by Heng Huizhong.


Since it was so, she must act like a spoiled wife.


"Lang Lang, Mr. Heng must be inviting you upstairs because he wants to give you your present in private," suggested her attendant.


"There is no need." Lang Lan had already thought of this reason before the female attendant said. "All of the women in here are my close friends. I do not need to hide anything from them. House Butler, you can go up and tell Heng Huizahong that if he wants me for anything, he can come to find me at the lawn himself."


"But Lady Lang..." The Butler was having second thoughts. Mr. Heng looked fairly angry. It didn't appear to him he wanted to give some presents to House Mistress.


"What are you dawdling for? All of Lady Lan's friends are waiting. Hurry up and go inform Mr. Heng." Her female attendant urged.


"Then I shall do so." The Butlers are trained not to interfere in such matters and act as being commanded. Thus the Butler saw it fit to just go by the flow. This Lady had never been fair to the house servants. So why must he care about her if she gets rebuked in front of everyone?


The Butler went upstairs at the study where Heng Huizhang was pacing in circles in a very bad mood and told what Lang Lan had said. Hearing the Butler words, Heng Huizhong roared with laughter. "Since she doesn't want to save her reputation, why should I?" With bloodshot eyes, Heng Huizhong made his way down.


Once he appeared at the lawn, everyone hushed to see what 'present' he was going to give to Lang Lan. Even Lang Lan stood up eagerly and waked up to him with excited eyes. "Husband, you are finally home." However, a second later she realized that something was off about Heng Huizhong. "H-Husband? What's wrong."


He didn't appear to have come here to give her some presents. 


"You still have the nerves to ask!," roared Heng Huizhong loud not caring at all if there were countess ladies of autocratic families present around them. 


"W-What happened?" Lang Lan shuddered. She had never seen him this angry before. He had never talked to her in such an angry tone before.


;


"Lang Lan, let me ask you, do you still see me as your husband? You shamelessly used your family and lied to me regarding such sensitive information. Do you know that your whole Lang family had been pulled down because of their mindless actions? Not only that, but President Li had also personally sent an ultimatum to our company! It was only because of Jing Lihua that we were not dragged down with your Lang family!" Heng Huizhong had another purpose for saying this aloud in front of everyone. He wanted everyone to know that he had nothing to do with the Lang family actions.


At that time in the lounge, he had received a call from the company. There was an emergency meeting, It turned out for some unknown reasons, the 'Li' family had turned against the Lang family. What was the difference between Li and the Lang family? With the simple lift of a finger, the Li family could eradicate the whole Lang family.


It had been exactly so. 


Not only that, but they had also sent them a statement, that their family was spared only because of Jing Lihua.


At first, no one could understand. But then Heng Huizhang recalled Lang Lan's words. Could it be that Jing Lihua was never planning to betray President Li? And that President Li found out about Lang Yufan's lies?


It was most likely so. Everything made sense to Heng Huizhong. Lang Lan was most likely telling lies to turn him against Heng Bingwen and Jing Lihua.


Lang Lan's face blanched looking at the expressions on Heng Huizhong. "I-I did not know-"


"Shut the f**k up woman! I have finally seen your true face. You are a shameless wench! Even at this point, you persist that you were innocent? Let me tell you, from today onwards everything between us is over! The only reason I am not going to divorce you is because of Heng Fu!" Heng Huizhong even harsher words left Lang Lan tongue-tied. 


He did not even wait for anything else and stormed off that place. That sudden explosion left everyone speechless.


They had all anticipated for Heng Huizhong to come and display his affection for Lang Lan. But this outcome? They had no idea!


Gradually, people broke out of trance!


"Hehe..." Someone snickered. "What a grand present Mr. Heng had for his wife. I have never seen anything like this before."


"Well," someone added. "You have to pay for your actions. If Lang Lan could stay true to her husband, I doubt he would have changed. This is a result of her own actions."


"According to Me. Heng words, the Lang family is done for. If Mr. Heng divorces her, she will have no place to go. Tsk Tsk, looks


lie she will have to work on her attitude to survive from now on."


Al sorts of insults and derogatory comments followed.


People have always been so. If you are on the top, they would worship you. Once you fall from the disgrace, your closest would be the first one to bite you.


Lang Lan's face was flushed red in embarrassment. Tears gathered in her eyes. In the state extreme shame, she could not even move her head and stayed frozen at her spot as one by one her so-called close friend left.


There was no word fo comfort said to her.


All that was made were derogatory remarks, relishing her plight.
