115 Threatening the Lin Family
Fang Yanwen said that she did not want to stay here.
However, when she put the luxury items and jewelry on the bed, she started to regret it.
Her family was not as well-off as the Lin family. Once she left, it meant that everything she had now no longer belonged to her.
After struggling for a long time, Fang Yanwen decided to call her mother and went downstairs to apologize under her mother’s suggestion.
She disguised herself as a good girl. “Aunt, I was too impulsive just now. I’m sorry.”
“No need.” Fang Liu put away the antihypertensive pill.
Hurt inflicted by words wouldn’t heal that easily. She could not forgive her, let alone pretend it didn’t happen.
However, Fang Yanwen did not understand.
She knelt down and said with tears in her eyes, “I swear I’ll never go to look for my cousin-in-law again.”
Fang Liu stood up and moved to the other side. “You don’t even have a cousin. How can you have a cousin-in-law?”
“Can you forgive me for my words of anger and my ignorance.”
“You’re already an adult. Didn’t anyone teach you to be responsible for your words and actions?”
The sarcasm in her eyes made Fang Yanwen clench her fists. “Aunt, I really know my mistake.”
Fang Liu waved her hand. “You can leave.”
“You promised to take good care of me before, but now you’re going back on your word?”
“You don’t have the ability to take care of yourself?”
Fang Yanwen was speechless.
She stared at the phone on the coffee table and said, “How are you going to tell my mother about it?”
“Are you threatening me?”
“No, I’m just asking.”
Fang Liu was so angry that she laughed.
She was not in the mood to waste her breath. She called the nanny in the kitchen and asked her to go upstairs to help Fang Yanwen pack up.
Fang Yanwen, who was thinking hard about a solution, only came back to her senses when she saw the suitcase being carried down.
She stared at the suitcase for a long time, knowing that there was no turning back.
“I can leave.” She stood up with a righteous expression. “But, give me two million first.”
Lin Hongyuan drank half a glass of water and took a deep breath to adjust his emotions to prevent his blood pressure from rising again.
He took out his phone. “I’ll get the police to give it to you!”
“How many years of sentence do you get for racketeering?” Fang Liu asked him, looking like she was genuinely curious.
“Over ten years if it’s serious.”
“Then I’ll go check the surveillance cameras.”
After she rushed upstairs, Lin Hongyuan called the police and turned on the speaker as he explained the situation.
Hearing the police’s voice, Fang Yanwen did not dare to make a fuss anymore and scurried away with her suitcase.
She returned to the old residential building.
As she walked in the stairwell filled with debris and trash, her clean shoes were gradually covered in dust.
The aunties sitting in the corridor were chatting. Their saliva seemed to be spraying on her, making her feel disgusted.
“Hey, isn’t this Yanwen?”
“Didn’t you say some time ago that you would never come back to this lousy place again? What brought you here today?”
“She is probably chased out by that family?”
“She deserves it!”
The mocking laughter that rang out in her ears was like a silver needle covered in poison that pierced Fang Yanwen’s heart.
She opened the door silently and smashed the items in the bedroom to vent her anger.
The mess on the ground showed how mad she was.
She hugged her knees and sat on the sofa, looking at the setting sun in the west. She was like a numb puppet who could not even cry.
Was she wrong?
She was indeed wrong. She was wrong because she did not have a powerful background.
Even being born into this family was wrong.
“Knock, knock—”
A knock on the door interrupted Fang Yanwen’s thoughts.
She walked to the door barefooted and turned the door knob.
“Who are you all?”
“Let’s talk inside.” Liu Qiao’an knocked into her shoulder and walked to the living room with her sisters.
She crossed her arms and sat on the chair. “Fang Yanwen, did you confess to my man?”
“Who?”
“Still playing fool?”
Fang Yanwen subconsciously thought of a male classmate who was in contact with her. “You’re thinking too much. I’m not interested in your boyfriend.”
“You’re not interested in him but you still seduced him?”
“Stop slandering me!”
“Slandering?” Liu Qiao’an sneered.
When she thought of the anonymous recording, she was so angry that she kicked Fang Yanwen’s leg. “You even had a phone sex with him and now you’re still accusing me of slandering you?”
“What’s wrong with you?” Fang Yanwen patted the dust off her pants. “I just chatted with him for a while. What do you mean a phone sex?”
“Who would’ve thought that someone like you is actually a lying bi*ch?”
“We really just chatted for a while. I didn’t know he had a girlfriend. If you don’t believe me, ask him!”
“Bullsh*t!” Liu Qiao’an moved closer to her. “My boyfriend’s WeChat Moments are filled with my photos. Why are you still pretending you didn’t know?”
“He must have hidden the photos from me.” Fang Yanwen took a few steps back. “If you want to blame someone, blame him. Why are you looking for me?”
“Fang Yanwen, do you have a sense of shame? We heard how Qiao’an’s boyfriend rejected you with our ears!”
“That’s right. And yet you still pretend you are the most innocent in the world.”
“Aren’t you just trying to ruin Qiao’an’s relationship and take advantage of it? What a big plan you are working on!”
Liu Qiao’an’s female friends spoke one after another, making the atmosphere tense.
Realizing that she was in trouble, Fang Yanwen held her clothes tightly to hide the panic in her eyes.
“Sister Qiao���an.” She lowered her voice. “Nothing happened between me and him.”
“Do you hope something happened?”
“No, how can I seduce someone who has a girlfriend? There must be a misunderstanding.”
Liu Qiao’an preferred to believe the evidence.
She grabbed Fang Yanwen’s collar and slapped her face. “Fang Yanwen, do you really think I’m a fool?”
“I said I didn’t do it!”
“Well then, I didn’t slap you either.”
“You…” Just as Fang Yanwen finished saying a word, the girls standing at the back made a move.
Furious shouts and slaps sounded at the same time.
“I dare you try again.” Liu Qiao’an took the tissue from her female friends and looked at Fang Yanwen’s bruised face.
This time, Fang Yanwen did not refute.
She knew that no matter what she said, she would not be able to clear her name. “I… I wouldn’t dare.”
“Who else did you seduce other than my boyfriend?”
“No one.”
“You’d better not lie.” Liu Qiao’an crushed up the tissue and threw it at her face.
Before she left, she smiled at Fang Yanwen and said, “By the way, the person who made a speech at the playground last week is my uncle.”
“What do you mean?”
“Don���t you like to seduce office workers? Then I’ll introduce one to you. Isn’t that what you want?”
Fang Yanwen’s heart skipped a beat.
She looked at Liu Qiao’an’s back in a daze and was gradually overwhelmed by regret.
