Chapter 268 - Accomplishment
"Jiang Lanying!" Lihua happily hopped into her arms and laughed. "You were bang on! Damn it, you burned the stage hahaha!"
Jiang Ruiling chuckled. "Indeed. I never thought that my sister-in-law could get angry like that. You completely shut everybody\'s mouths."
"En, en! I was also checking Weibo simultaneously as you were talking and hoho! All those mean keyboard warriors got totally shut up. Look. Now people are popping out in your support."
\'Thank you, Jiang Lanying, for opening everybody\'s eyes. This has given me courage to open up...I am thirty-two and unable to conceive for four years and then I found out that I am infertile. I am fortunate that my husband supported me.
But when this got out in my neighborhood, people started talking behind our backs. They mocked me everywhere I went. One elderly woman even didn\'t allow her small grandchildren to meet me anymore, fearing that I would infect them with infertility too. My husband and I got so distressed that we had to buy another home somewhere else and leave…
But your words now struck my heart. It\'s not shameful and embarrassing. My husband and I shouldn\'t have left our home and faced them instead…\'
\'Jiang Lanying is absolutely right! I fully support her. My husband had a similar condition and our own family looked at us in disdain. Now, I regret that I didn\'t give them my piece of mind every time they taunted us!\'
\'What Jiang Lanying said is absolutely true! A marriage is about loving and supporting your partner until the very end…But I am unfortunate that I didn\'t have a partner like that. My husband started having affairs behind my back as soon as he realized that I had trouble conceiving. When I confronted him, he threw divorce papers at my face instead of being guilty!
I regret that I endured his humiliation. I should have been the one to throw the divorce papers on his face, not him!\'
\'I had fertility problems too and when I insisted for a treatment, my family vehemently rejected the idea and condemned me! They said not to embarrass them by making everyone know about my problem. Instead, they wanted me to hide it so that no guy would reject me for marriage...It was horrible! But now, I finally got the courage! No matter what anyone says now, I am going for a treatment. I have even booked my appointment. Thank you so much Jiang Lanying for giving me the strength to do this.\'
\'I had a horrible husband too who I divorced a year back. I wanted to support him but instead, he started beating me and said how I am infertile. He said that men cannot have problems. It\'s always the woman who cannot bear a child. I was so disgusted by his treatment and abuse that I finally divorced him and left! Men like him so rot in hell!\'
\'Shame on you all that you harassed Jiang Li like that.\'
\'Yes! Everybody has problems. You had no right to judge him at all!\'
\'Seriously, people have nothing better to do at all.\'
More and more people who, at first, were afraid to voice their opinion because of the overwhelming wave against Jiang Li, slowly came out and began to narrate their experiences. The ones who suffered showed their extreme support towards her.
Lihua smiled. "Hehe...It\'s like Jiang Lanying has given a voice to all those who have been silently suffering until now. I am proud of you!"
Jiang Lanying softly smiled. After so long, she finally felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. Every time, she would only stand at the sidelines and watch all around her suffer.
But this time, she brought a change with her. She started a new wave. She not only supported Jiang Li but also thousands of people who had hidden themselves in their shells in needless shame and embarrassment.
Jiang Li clicked his tongue. "I don\'t want more admirers to increase."
Jiang Lanying coughed. "Li you…"
Lihua grinned. "With this, you have successfully turned the tide! Now nobody will dare to humiliate Jiang Li anymore."
As they were about to leave, a voice called out. "Lanying."
She stopped and looked behind to see Lai Chang standing in front of her. She pursed her lips while Jiang Li sneered.
"I see, young master Lai Chang is here too."
Lai Chang quietly stared at them.
"What\'s wrong? You look so defeated. If you have got nothing to say to us, then don\'t waste our time," he coldly said. "I don\'t want my wife to be anywhere near her ex-stalker."
He faintly smiled. "I…didn\'t come here to bother you."
He stared at Jiang Lanying and a tight knot twisted his heart in pain. He felt extremely envious of Jiang Li.
And today, he also realized how he had pathetically lost. After hearing her words with that firm determination and resolve in her expression, he knew that she had only Jiang Li in her heart. He had a faint ray of hope that this incident would make her leave him and he would finally get his chance.
But looking at how she stood up for him, Lai Chang finally came to terms with the fact that he had lost her forever. It enveloped his heart in a bittersweet feeling. Jiang Lanying, who didn\'t used to talk much, faced the entire country today by herself to defend her husband.
What more proof did he need?
If he didn\'t stop now, he knew that he would lose the last friendship that they had too.
Lai Chang bowed before them and sincerely said, "... Please forgive me, Jiang Li for instigating this whole chain of hatred against you. I will formally organize another press conference and apologize to you in front of everyone."
Jiang Li raised his brows while Jiang Lanying was genuinely surprised.
"Lanying has opened my eyes," he faintly smiled. "I have nothing more to say or do after this. I apologize for my actions."
He hesitantly looked at her and said, "Lanying...I know that I have hurt you a lot. But I hope...No, I request that you please let us still remain friends."
