Chapter 141: Fourth Sister Ruined And Disgraced! Qin Jiang Fully On The Dark Side

Qin Shuyun’s continued defense of Qin Yun and her persistence also eased the worry that had been weighing on Qin Yun.

It turned out his fourth sister pushed him away only because she wanted to keep protecting him.

But now, sprawled on the ground in utter embarrassment, he was precisely the kind of person who couldn’t stand up without help — all this humiliation thanks to Qin Jiang…

Part of him secretly reveled that even if the truth were exposed, in the end it was still him whom his sisters fought hardest to protect.

But he hadn’t had time to enjoy that pride.

A cool, domineering female voice then cut through the courtroom’s solemn atmosphere.

At this moment, it was Yan Liang, the head of the Yan Group, who truly presided!

The most powerful heiress in the country, the Young Mistress’s presence was unstoppable — the moment people noticed her, they couldn’t even meet her gaze, only furtively glancing with lowered eyes.

For some people — a mere silhouette is enough.

To take away one’s breath.

Yan Liang was exactly that kind of existence!!

The words “my Jiang” — were a decisive killer blow!

The moment Qin Shuyun saw Young Mistress Yan Liang appear in person, she involuntarily sucked in a cold breath.

“Y-Young Mistress…Yan?”

Seeing Yan Liang again, that ingrained sense of being crushed to a lower position left Qin Shuyun no courage to continue arguing with Qin Jiang.

“Qin Jiang is my husband.”

“That brazen bribery you just attempted — who are you insulting? Do you think he really cares about inheriting your family’s meager leftovers?”

Yan Liang spoke again, without even standing up.

Her long, graceful figure lounged lazily in the front row of the spectators. Her long legs, slim waist, and stunning beauty all showcased her overwhelming aura.

And this supreme beauty, atop the pyramid of power, had personally come forward to back Qin Jiang.

Yes — she was supporting Qin Jiang.

She did nothing overt, yet her mere presence invisibly created a sure-win situation for Qin Jiang.

No wonder… no wonder the judge exercised discretion.

With Yan Liang attending personally, if he still didn’t do anything, then it wouldn’t be Luo Xiang costing him his job anymore.

“Judge, I’ve never heard of a courtroom allowing a defendant to openly bribe the plaintiff.”

“Have you?”

Yan Liang wasn’t verbose, but these few casual words had already conferred the greatest form of fairness upon Qin Jiang.

Bang!

The judge hurriedly brought down his gavel again, striking to intimidate the court.

“Plaintiff Qin Shuyun, the evidence has been submitted for adjudication. The defendants are somewhat numerous and require time for consideration, but that is no reason for you to openly disrupt court order and bribe the plaintiff!”

“Court warning, once!”

“Fine of… two—two hundred thousand!!”

Qin Shuyun was bewildered.

Disturbing court order should only incur a $2,000 fine!

But… he actually dared to jack the price up?

But Qin Shuyun didn’t dare to argue now. She could only swallow this silent loss.

Anyone could see that Young Mistress Yan Liang was showing her who’s boss.

The judge could only “tailor the punishment to the person”.

She could never compare to, nor provoke, the instigator behind all this in her lifetime.

Why did Qin Jiang have such fortune?

More importantly, the husband Young Mistress Yan Liang should have married… no, the chosen son-in-law was clearly Yun.

“Ms. Liang, look at this…”

Yan Liang sat there, and for a moment the judge didn’t dare to continue ruling lightly.

Yan Liang waved her hand, her expression as indifferent as ever, and said to him, “You are the judge. Just rule fairly, impartially, and openly.”

Wait, what??

He had always been fair, just, and open.

But she was the “courtroom rogue” now, pounding away with lawsuits.

Clearly his role wasn’t actually to judge!

The law is the most convenient weapon in an appellant’s hand.

An hour passed.

The ruling had been issued.

The five-member plaintiff group of the Qin family each suffered the law’s backlash.

Especially Gu Hai, who had come only as the Qin family’s proxy lawyer, wanting to show off his superior legal skills before his girlfriend Qin Muyun.

Who would have thought an appeal would be like attending his own funeral.

Once it went up, he disappeared!

The law firm immediately came under investigation and handling.

In this country, tax issues were a big deal!

Especially for a law firm, which was supposed to be closest to the law — if this first line of defense was compromised.

Then how could the law stand?

And the one punished most severely was Qin Shuyun. Setting aside Young Mistress Yan Liang’s presence, this case was a guaranteed win for Qin Jiang.

What terrified Qin Shuyun upon reflection was that Qin Jiang had clearly been prepared long ago.

He had known that his fourth sister had been kept in the dark, intentionally watched her make a scene, and grandly pushed her own career toward ruin.

Qin Jiang truly must have hated her so deeply…

When did Qin Jiang gain such patience and scheming?

He suppressed himself just to deliver a fatal blow to her!

His counterattack at this moment was simply a death blow to Qin Shuyun and Qin Yun, both well-known figures in the entertainment industry!

Qin Shuyun had falsely accused her own brother of plagiarizing her, when in fact she had borrowed and plagiarized countless of Qin Jiang’s creative ideas — essentially she was just an empty-headed waste.

Without the backing of a talented director, Qin Shuyun’s acting path was blocked. She had truly driven herself into a dead end.

And the fans who had supported Qin Shuyun throughout were stunned. The livestream exploded into chaos.

Everyone was furious.

“Oh my God, after following this scandal to the end I just realized Qin Jiang is actually the most pitiful one?”

“The whole family favored the younger brother, and even though Qin Jiang’s also a son of the Qin family, Qin Shuyun actually tried to ‘bribe’ him to withdraw the lawsuit with Qin family inheritance rights. Doesn’t that mean… the entire Qin family never raised Qin Jiang as an heir?”

“Oh my… Poor Qin Jiang!“

“Qin Shuyun stole her own brother’s talent for so long — how dare she sue Qin Jiang for plagiarism? Can’t she tell her own weight?”

“Wow, is it just me who sees how scheming Qin Jiang is? He knew he was being framed but deliberately held back and waited for things to get bigger, turning haters into fans. Using Qin Shuyun’s existing fanbase and influence to draw attention and build momentum for himself.”

“He showed bold confidence from the start, and he let the whole lawsuit be broadcast live; he wanted to use Qin Shuyun as a stepping stone to maximize his exposure…”

“Even the previous “follow to get $200” was the same — he was using Qin Shuyun’s influence to build his personal commercial IP!!“

“My God, after reading your analysis, I suddenly feel Qin Jiang’s scheming and tactics make it deserved that Young Mistress Yan Liang chose him…”

“The Qin family really must be blind — compared to that sickly Qin Yun, a child like Qin Jiang who had a resilient, unyielding childhood is clearly more fit to be heir.“

“Heh, the Qin family looks like a bunch of decent people, but they all pick on our Brother Jiang alone.”

“Tsk, since Qin Shuyun plagiarized Qin Jiang, she should return all the honors that rightfully belong to Qin Jiang.”

“We support Brother Jiang’s rights protection. To quote Qin Shuyun’s initial accusations against Qin Jiang: cultural property rights must not be shaken; theft and plagiarism are most shameful!”

“Support Brother Jiang! Support Brother Jiang! Support Brother Jiang!”

“Turning hate into… casual fandom!!“

Netizens weren’t all fools. Once they saw the evidence, they all understood.

Essentially Qin Jiang had been treated as a scapegoat for everything and drained for the sake of the youngest child.

The whole family isolated him.

“There’s not a single good person in the Qin family, all of you deserve jail!”

“Qin Shuyun, I’m officially unfollowing you. You talentless thief who steals creativity and then plays the victim — what qualification do you have to stay in the entertainment industry?”

“Get out, pack up and go reflect in jail!“

“Qin Shuyun, you and Qin Yun are two of a kind. We were blind to call you a goddess. Get out! Leave immediately!”

Zhou Ning, at some point in plain clothes, blended into the group of loyal Qin Shuyun fans who had specially come to the jury area.

He was seen, inexplicably, carrying a basket of rotten eggs.

After uttering that denunciation.

He actually raised a rotten egg and hurled it.

Zhou Ning’s aim was precise.

Plop!!

The next moment, a rotten egg hit her squarely between the brows!!

“Aah!!”

Qin Shuyun, who had been immersed in pleas and remorse toward Qin Jiang, of course knew she had wronged him.

But Yun was the one she truly could not give up.

In Qin Shuyun’s eyes, as long as her disfigurement could be treated, she could return to the entertainment circle and become the top actress adored by millions.

Appearance, to a woman, is as important as life.

Especially for Qin Shuyun’s face-dependent career, her anxiety about looks had always existed, and after disfigurement she had never reconciled with herself.

“Who did that! This is still a courtroom…”

Qin Shuyun screamed. She couldn’t care about anything else as her entire face was submerged in a stench, the sticky sensation sliding from her forehead and about to reach her mouth…

Qin Shuyun had always been neat and clean. Her neat-freak tendencies weren’t as severe as her eldest sister’s, but she was used to being refined.

At this moment she couldn’t bear it and screamed aloud.

“…Ugh!”

Another rotten egg, at the moment she opened her mouth to scream, was thrown and landed directly inside Qin Shuyun’s mouth.

The scene was embarrassing and disgusting.

Qin Shuyun froze for a moment, not daring to move.

If she tried to spit it out, she would have to bite the shell and would end up with a mouthful of rotten egg liquid.

If she didn’t want that filth, she couldn’t spit it out at all.

She could only keep her mouth blocked…

Qin Shuyun’s scalp tingled, her body trembled, she felt the sky collapse — this blow was like a mad sharpening against her already fragile nerves.

“…Per~fect~”

A trace of satisfaction passed through Zhou Ning’s eyes as he clasped his hands behind his back. “Qin Shuyun, how will you repay us fans what you owe?”

“Unfollow! I’m unfollowing!!”

“Unfollow and dislike! I’m a professional…”

The “insiders” mixed in among Qin Shuyun’s fan crowd responded in chorus. The basket of rotten eggs had originally been a rotten idea someone suggested to prepare for Qin Jiang.

And now… they could reap what they sow!

Smack smack smack!!

Egg after egg rained down like hail on Qin Shuyun, soiling her — a trampling and spitting upon her acting career.

For an artist, the most devastating moment is when those who once worshipped you now step you into the mud.

Qin Shuyun collapsed.

Completely broken.

The dual blows, mental and physical, overwhelmed her. She could no longer help but wail hoarsely, and by clenching her teeth she bit through the egg…

She was pushed to the very edge.

Her heart felt as if someone had squeezed it tight, pulled it out, crushed it, and thrown it into the snow — blood spilling, utterly shattered.

Qin Shuyun sank to the ground, utterly exhausted.

In her mind a thread was being torn, unraveling inch by inch.

She… was she really wrong?

She indeed stole Jiang’s talent — unforgivable!

But must Qin Jiang therefore stamp her into an irredeemable mire?

Rotten egg after rotten egg hit Qin Shuyun.

At first Qin Qianyun could watch on coldly. She had been observing how Qin Jiang treated their fourth sister, hoping he might show at least a little — the tiniest bit — of mercy to his own family.

But… there wasn’t any.

Qin Jiang had completely come to loathe everyone in the Qin family…

Including her.

Even as she desperately reflected and sought forgiveness.

When she turned back, Qin Qianyun realized that Jiang had long since distanced himself far from the whole family.

“No… don’t hurt my fourth sister!”

After much thought, Qin Qianyun couldn’t help herself and lunged for Qin Shuyun to shield her from the rotten eggs.

Qin Yun watched this and also wanted to jump in to shield her.

But he tripped, so he and his wheelchair tumbled down again…

“Fo… fourth sister, fifth sister… I’m sorry, it’s because I was useless, I couldn’t protect you.”

Immediately Qin Yun felt a shadow cover his head. A tall, upright figure suddenly appeared before his eyes.

It was — Qin Jiang!!

Plop!

A rotten egg splattered on his head. Qin Jiang’s gaze was mocking and cold, “Qin Yun, what’s the hurry… there’s some for you too.”

Qin Yun widened his eyes, incredulously lifting his head, frowning as if to retort.

The next moment, something was quickly shoved into his mouth by Qin Jiang’s swift hands…

Qin Yun wanted to curse.

Something burst in his mouth…

In his life he’d never been this disgusted. He’d often been mentally disgusted by Qin Jiang, but this physical assault-level disgust was something he had never stooped to.

Now, after experiencing this.

He realized physical attacks were also the most lethal—

The air filled with stench.

On the verge of a mental breakdown, Qin Yun suddenly smelled an alluring, domineering woman’s perfume.

He couldn’t help but look up.

He saw Young Mistress Yan Liang’s long legs and slim waist, her red-soled high heels exuded seductive elegance.

“Jiang, thank you for your trouble… come wipe your hands.”

The Young Mistress took out an embroidered handkerchief that clearly was of considerable value.

She stepped forward to gently wipe the sweat from Qin Jiang’s forehead, then moved to his hands to wipe away nonexistent dirt…

The contrast!

The tables had turned completely.

Clearly, it was Qin Yun who should have been the one admired and cherished by everyone in front of Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang… what right did he have to enjoy all of this?

The Young Mistress clearly should belong to him.

Qin Yun clenched his hands so tight his nails almost dug into flesh.

Discontent wrapped his body and soul.

But… at this moment he could only look up, he could only fall into the dust.

“Yan… Yan, it’s me.”

“Yan, there’s some misunderstanding between us. Actually I should be your husb—”

Qin Yun struggled to get up, wanting to crawl to the Young Mistress’s feet to beg even a sliver of pity.

But before he finished speaking, Qin Jiang lifted his foot and shoved a shoe in his mouth.

“Little perv, are you tired of living?”

“She… is my wife!”

Qin Jiang lowered his gaze. In an instant his previously gentle temperament snapped into something sharp.

His dark pupils suddenly narrowed as a contemptuous laugh slipped out of his nose, dripping with undisguised mockery.

As if to say, you think you deserve it?

You think you deserve even a sliver of the Young Mistress’s attention?

Ha… the Young Mistress only has eyes for him!

She can only be tightly bound to him, fiercely possessed!

The Young Mistress was his! No one may covet her!

Qin Jiang turned aside. His tall form completely blocked the disheveled Qin Yun sprawled on the ground.

He wrapped one arm around the Young Mistress’s slim waist and unabashedly bent down to plant a hard kiss on her red lips.

His gaze was fervent and sharp.

On closer look, it bore a kind of… abnormal possessiveness!

Yan Liang looked up, somewhat surprised at Qin Jiang’s action. A faint tenderness and shyness crossed her face.

“Jiang, there are so many people here…”

“You’ve… gone bad.”

Those words were doubly edged.

A few traces of satisfaction and admiration flashed in the Young Mistress’s eyes.

Jiang was becoming more and more like her.

No wonder he was the man she had once tied to her bed and taught stroke by stroke.

To be like her… was as easy as flipping one’s hand.

The crowd: !!!!!??

As if they dared to look~

“Mm… is that considered ‘bad’?”

Clearly not even one-thousandth of the Young Mistress’s level.

The Young Mistress, unsatisfied, eager to teach by example, said, “Jiang, that’s not enough… we need to be even more bad, something that’s more thrilling~”

Zhou Ning, who had just returned to stand behind the Young Mistress in protection, gulped.

No… Young Mistress, Mr. Qin, are we really not bothering to hide anymore??
