Chapter 1445: The Blackened Good Girl (80)

“What perfect man? Isn’t he just a school doctor living off a woman?” Wu Lingling covered her face and stubbornly retorted. “A man who lives off a woman’s money, what ability does he have? Even if I’m inferior to you in every way, I’m much better than you when it comes to choosing men.”

Everyone present exchanged glances.

What had Wu Lingling just said?

That she was better than President Tang at choosing men?

She probably had no idea that the man who had willingly given up his place on the world stage of medicine to stand by President Tang’s side had already achieved countless accomplishments at such a young age. He had made innumerable contributions to the medical field, and even the leading figures at the pinnacle of medicine addressed him respectfully as “Teacher” when they saw him.

Before, they had thought Wu Lingling was shameless. Now, they only thought she was stupid and ignorant.

Then again, what did a former delinquent girl know besides spending men’s money?

They truly could not understand how Lu Jing had fallen for such a woman.

“Tang Guo—”

Before Wu Lingling could continue, Lu Jing finally snapped out of it and roared, “Wu Lingling, enough! Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough?”

In the past, Lu Jing hadn’t known much about Qiao Ge. But after returning to the Lu family and learning under Father Lu, he had come to understand what kind of person Qiao Ge really was.

Even Father Lu treated someone like him with the utmost respect.

As for Lu Jing himself, he wasn’t even qualified to carry the man’s shoes.

“Lu… Lu Jing…” Startled by his furious shout, Wu Lingling froze. “Lu Jing, it’s all Tang Guo’s fault. She caused all of this. I never wanted things to end up like this. Lu Jing, believe me, I never wanted this. All the suffering I’ve gone through, everything, was caused by that hypocritical woman Tang Guo pretending to be pure and innocent. If not for her, I would definitely have lived a good life.”

Seeing that Wu Lingling still refused to repent, Lu Jing felt exhausted.

Many people had asked him before what was so good about Wu Lingling.

Even he could never answer that question.

All he could say was that she had been with him since they were teenagers, and he had to give her a future.

Deep down, he had loved Wu Lingling, but he had also felt guilty toward her.

Because of his guilt over her supposedly having two abortions for him, he had tolerated everything she did. Even when her immaturity had caused him to lose a valuable opportunity to establish himself firmly within the Lu Corporation, he had never blamed her.

Even when his mother had shown disappointment and disapproval, he had stubbornly insisted on marrying Wu Lingling.

Now, all of it felt like a joke.

“Dad, Mom, I’m sorry.”

Lu Jing walked over to his parents and said heavily, “Cancel the wedding.”

“No, I won’t allow it! I won’t allow it!” Wu Lingling screamed. “Lu Jing, how can you do this? How can you abandon me? You promised to marry me. How can you do this?”

Ignoring the filthy wedding dress she was wearing, she rushed over and wrapped herself tightly around Lu Jing.

“I won’t blame Tang Guo anymore. Lu Jing, let’s get married. We won’t argue about anything else. The past is already the past, okay?”

“No.”

Lu Jing pushed her away.

“Lingling, I’ve already done enough for you. I’ve given up enough for you. So… please let me go.”

No matter how loudly Wu Lingling cried and screamed, Lu Jing showed no sign of changing his mind.

In the end, Father Lu called for people to drag Wu Lingling out.

Qin Ruolan and Wu Jun followed the crowd out as well, covering their faces, too ashamed to show themselves in front of the Tang family any longer.
