“What’s going on?” Lin Yu pushed past the crowd, ran over, and asked in a panic. “What’s all this? What happened here?”
No one answered her. Lin Yu carefully walked up to Xi Cheng and inquired, “Xi
Cheng, are you okay? Are you not feeling well? Here, let me help you up.”
Xi Cheng didn’t move an inch, so Lin Yu reached out to try and pull him up. Xi
Cheng pushed Lin Yu away and exploded at her. “F*ck off!”
Off-balanced, Lin Yu cried out in surprise and took a step back, only to meet air. She was about to fall down the steps if a housemaid hadn’t caught her, but she still sprained her ankle.
Lin Yu was in so much pain that tears flowed down her face, but she didn’t make a sound. Han Yuan, who had rushed out and witnessed everything, couldn’t help but scold her son. “Why are you taking it out on Lin Yu? What’s this got to do with her?”
Xi Cheng slowly turned around and stared at his mother with reddened eyes. He softly and calmly uttered, “Mother, what are you still angry about? You guys got what you wanted, didnt you? Do you guys really think I don’t know anything? Would you guys mind telling me what you two said to Fang Xi and what you did to her? Do you dare to tell me?”
“Seven years!” Xi Cheng roared. “Seven! Years! Fang Xi and I have been together for seven years. She gave me the best years of her youth and didn’t get anything in return! She didn’t even take the bank card I gave her for our daily expenses, let alone the five million you gave her!”
“She didn’t touch a single cent on that bank card! I wasn’t the one supporting her; she was the one who fed and took care of me for seven years! She supported me! I didn’t give her anything! Not a single thing! She doesn’t want anything; she only wants love. She wasted seven years of her youth just because she loved me!” That said, Xi Cheng squatted down and started crying like a child.
Han Yuan was shocked and dazed by Xi Cheng’s words. The guests watched this scene and murmured amongst themselves. Lin Yu’s entire body felt cold. The pain in her ankle was nothing compared to the aching in her heart.
The operating room’s red light was still on. Covered in blood, Ye Kun sat on one of the chairs outside in a daze, watching the blood on his hands dry up bit by bit. The blood congealed on his hands just as his blood coagulated in his veins.
Yun Nan was there, sitting in her wheelchair and looking at the operating room’s light without moving. A hospital staff had also wheeled Shi Nian over to Yun Nan, and he silently accompanied her. Xiang Yang was pacing back and forth, wearing a pair of flats a nurse had lent her, nervously wringing her hands.
Xi Cheng ran over, panting. He swept his gaze across the people present before heading towards Shi Nian. “How is Fang Xi?” he asked.
Shi Nian shook his head gently at him. Ye Kun heard his voice and looked up. He abruptly stood up and strode over to shove Xi Cheng, saying, “What are you doing here? Leave! She doesn’t want to see you!”
Xi Cheng grabbed Ye Kun’s hand and pushed him away. “No way! The person she wants to see the most is me! I’ve been with her for seven years! She’d loved me for seven years!”
Ye Kun’s back slammed into the wall, and like a deflated balloon, he suddenly lost the courage to argue with Xi Cheng. Xi Cheng turned to look at Shi Nian. Just as he was about to say something, Yun Nan spoke coldly, “So what?”
Xi Cheng was about to speak when Yun Nan said coldly, “You guys were together for seven years, yet your buddies have never seen her! To their Imowledge, Fang Xi is just a woman you kept on the side! You didn’t even deign to give them her name! You treated her like she was just a sordid lover instead of a girlfriend! Mr. Xi! What do you take her for? A nanny! A maid! A bed warmer! A slave!”
Yun Nan glared at Xi Cheng. “She spent seven years with you. Even a rock would’ve warmed to her, but your heart didn’t! You didn’t take the initiative to woo her, but you never rejected her either. You let her stay with you without ever taking any responsibility. You enjoyed her love while portraying yourself as a pitiful man whose hands are tied, but you didn’t tell her you already had a fiancée!”
“Because of that, she became a homewrecker out of the blue! If you want to break up, all you have to do is say the word, and she’ll leave you. She’d long prepared herself to do so because, in her heart, she felt that her family background wasn’t good enough for you, but you didn’t even have the courage to break up with her! Instead, you let your mother and fiancée come to humiliate her. You truly are a vicious scum!”
Xi Cheng couldn’t bear the weight of Yun Nan’s words. He stepped back and cried in anguish, “No, that’s not how it is. I looked for her! I love her! I honestly do! I—I’ve fallen in love with her long ago!”
“You fell in love with her long ago?’ Yun Nan sneered. “How long ago was that? If you love her, then where were you when your mother and fiancée came to humiliate her? Did you stand up for her? You said you looked for her, but this city isn’t that large.. If you’d put your mind to it, you would’ve been able to find her even if she’d moved out of the state or even the country, let alone the city! She only moved accommodations within the city, and you can’t find her?”
