Chapter 973 - 203: Journey (Part 3)
Rong Zhengfeng furrowed his brows immediately.
Hearing Fang Jingyi’s intense and resolute words, Jin Jumo slightly frowned, exchanged a glance with Rong Mochen, and led the two children into the dining room.
Originally, Jin Jumo thought about easing the relationship between Fang Jingyi and Rong Mochen, but now it seems unnecessary.
"Dad, a few years ago, Tang Yige did something as despicable as drugging Sinan, which shows her character is lacking. And her sister as well, even cheating on Sinan behind his back and getting pregnant with another man’s child. Sinan was kind and merely divorced her without reducing the division of property."
"Now that her sister has been sent away with great difficulty, her sister-in-law comes again. What do the Tang Family take us Rong Family for? An ATM?!" Fang Jingyi was indignant.
"Do you think your words are relevant to me? Are my words useful? If you have so many complaints, go to Sinan, don’t keep talking in front of me! You’re annoying me!"
Unable to suppress his anger any longer, Rong Zhengfeng interrupted, impatiently.
"How could my words not be relevant to you? You are the head of the Rong Family, if your words don’t count, what I say will fall on deaf ears even more."
"Dad, even for the sake of Rong Jun, can’t you give Sinan a hand? You’ve experienced the struggles of starting a business, Sinan finally got Shengge, but now he’s handing it over to her, Tang Yige..."
Fang Jingyi was so angry that she couldn’t breathe.
Clutching her chest, she said frustratedly, "What right does Tang Yige have?"
"Shengge was founded by Sinan, he has the right to dispose of it, he can give it to whomever he wants, and others have no say! Including you and me!" Rong Zhengfeng said.
"But giving it to Tang Yige is wrong! As his grandfather and mother, how can we have no say in a wrong matter?"
Fang Jingyi stared angrily at Rong Zhengfeng, "Dad, you are now living with Mochen and the others, surrounded by your children and grandchildren, enjoying family happiness. You’re comfortable, but you can’t ignore Rong Jun’s son, your other grandson!"
Upon hearing these words, Rong Zhengfeng’s anger flared up instantly, his tiger-like eyes glaring fiercely at Fang Jingyi, "Are you messing with me? Let me tell you, I’m just not caring, so what? I’m old, I can’t manage it! You can call me biased or whatever you like, I don’t care!"
With that, Rong Zhengfeng angrily grabbed his cane, stood up, and strode toward the dining room.
"Dad!"
Fang Jingyi screamed in frustration, "You can’t be like this!"
"Mind your own business."
Rong Zhengfeng muttered, as he walked into the dining room.
"Ah!"
Fang Jingyi shouted in extreme anger, grabbed her bag, and left the villa in an even worse mood than when she came.
...
After leaving the villa, Fang Jingyi went to Shengge Law Firm and all the properties she knew Rong Sinan owned in Z City, but she couldn’t find Rong Sinan.
She called his phone so many times that her phone battery was almost dead, but she couldn’t get through.
Fang Jingyi felt she might die from anger!
There was nothing she could do.
Unable to find him, Fang Jingyi had to return to her residence first.
However, as she got out of the car, she saw an unfamiliar white sedan parked outside the gate.
Fang Jingyi paused; ordinarily, she might have gone over to take a look, but her mood was terrible today, so she didn’t want to care, and was about to turn back toward the gate.
At that moment, the driver’s side door of the white sedan suddenly opened.
Noticing this from the corner of her eye, Fang Jingyi retracted her forward-leaning body and squinted as she looked over.
A slender woman wearing a white dress and an army-green wool coat stepped out of the car.
Seeing the woman’s face, Fang Jingyi’s already gloomy expression turned black, and she sneered, "You’re not here to take a walk in front of my door, are you?!"
Tang Ruan gently brushed the hair that had grown to her shoulders and walked softly towards Fang Jingyi.
Fang Jingyi stood still.
With anger pent up, someone willingly came to her to vent, how could she not accept it!
"Mom..."
"Mom? Did I hear that right?"
Fang Jingyi looked around as she spoke, her smile insincere, "I see no sign of your mother, Mrs. Tang, around here."
Tang Ruan’s eyes were filled with despair, "Mom, I’m calling you."
"Though I’m quite aged, Fang Jingyi, I thankfully haven’t fallen into dementia. I only remember giving birth to two sons, never a daughter," Fang Jingyi sneered.
"Mom, are you still angry with me?"
With tears in her eyes, Tang Ruan looked cautiously at Fang Jingyi, her gaze filled with sorrow.
Fang Jingyi remained unmoved, the coldness in her eyes deepening, "Tang Ruan, I know the obedient and lovely image you’ve always shown in front of me is fake. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have done something as shameless as cheating. So stop pretending in front of me. I won’t insult you because I’m too lazy to speak."
"You’ve always misunderstood me."
Tang Ruan’s tears fell as she cried, "I never intended to betray Sinan; someone set me up, I was a victim too."
"Oh, really? Was someone holding a knife to your throat, forcing you onto that adulterer’s bed?" Fang Jingyi’s words dripped with disdain.
"I truly was framed."
Tang Ruan anxiously grabbed Fang Jingyi’s arm.
Even using force, Fang Jingyi couldn’t shake her off.
"Tang Ruan, don’t push me to say worse things!" Fang Jingyi stared at Tang Ruan with disgust.
"Mom, it was my sister, my sister framed me. She drugged me, letting that man take advantage when I was out of it..."
Tang Ruan looked at Fang Jingyi with heartache, tears flowing, "I know I’m no longer worthy of Sinan. I don’t even hope to reunite with him, as I’m already tainted and can no longer bear children for him. But I can’t bear to see Sinan continuously deceived by my sister. I’m terrified that my sister might harm Sinan in the future. Mom, you know how much I love Sinan. How can I let my sister hurt him?"
Fang Jingyi’s gaze flickered, "If you were really framed by Tang Yige, why have you remained silent until now?"
"...She is, after all, my sister."
Tang Ruan whispered with tears, "I’m already tainted, so why bother..."
Fang Jingyi was silent for a long time, staring at Tang Ruan, "Why have you suddenly decided to speak up now?"
Tang Ruan sobbed, "Because I saw the news this morning. My sister actually tricked Sinan into willingly giving her his painstakingly built law firm. I’m so worried, worried about what else my sister might demand of Sinan next."
"Once she’s gotten everything she wants, Sinan will lose all value. At that point, she’ll definitely abandon him. That’s an outcome I absolutely don’t want to see."
"Sinan doesn’t want to see me now, and I don’t dare approach him..."
As she spoke, Tang Ruan released Fang Jingyi’s hand, slowly rolled up her coat sleeves, and revealed an arm mangled with wounds.
Fang Jingyi, shocked, covered her mouth, involuntarily stepping back two steps.
That arm, hidden under her sleeve, how could it even be called an arm?
In some places, you could even see the bone...
Seeing Fang Jingyi’s reaction, Tang Ruan dropped her eyes, silently lowered her sleeve, pursed her lips, and looked at Fang Jingyi with red-rimmed eyes, "For the past few months, I was imprisoned and tortured by my sister..."
Wh-what?!
Fang Jingyi gasped in shock and disbelief.
For the past few months, she indeed hadn’t heard any news about Tang Ruan, mainly because she hadn’t cared to.
But she never imagined that Tang Yige had actually...held her captive!
"My sister was afraid I’d go to Sinan and tell him the truth, so she used connections, tortured me endlessly. The wounds on my arm are secondary; the process is the most painful part."
"My sister would cut a piece of flesh off me with a knife every day. Then she’d have someone apply medicine. When the wound was about to heal, she’d cut again in the same place. Only when that area could no longer heal quickly would she switch to another spot. My sister’s mind is not normal anymore, she has gone mad."
Tang Ruan covered her mouth, choking on her sobs.
Fang Jingyi still hadn’t recovered from her shock.
It truly is something you don’t believe without seeing firsthand, not knowing someone could be so cold-hearted!
"It was only recently that my sister finally had a moment of mercy and released me. At the time, I was quite surprised. But today, news of Sinan proposing to her emerged..."
"I suppose my sister feels she’s achieved her goal, no longer fearing anything I might reveal because Sinan, who has decided to marry her, probably won’t listen to anything I say now," Tang Ruan said mournfully.
It seemed like Fang Jingyi had only just come to her senses from the shock, breathing heavily, staring at Tang Ruan’s arm, her voice trembling, "The injuries on your hand, were they really caused by Tang Yige?"
