Chapter 166 - Who Is That Man?
Chapter 166: Who Is That Man?
The hall became so quiet that one could hear the sound of breathing.
Qiao Jiusheng slowly closed her eyes.
Silly girl, I already took the blame for you. Why are you still standing up for me…
Shock filled Xu Pingfei’s and her husband’s eyes.
Even Fang Qingyun was stunned.
Qiao Jiuyin opened her mouth in shock.
She carefully recalled the scene she had seen that day.?Qi Yunsheng had gone to the hospital with Fang Yuqing. If Qi Yunsheng really wanted to have an abortion behind Fang Yusheng’s back, she should’ve done it secretly. Why would she have brought Fang Yuqing along! I know how much Fang Yuqing likes Fang Yusheng. If Fang Yuqing knew about that, she would definitely tell Fang Yusheng.
As Qiao Jiuyin thought about it, she realized she was mistaken from the start.
Fang Yuqing was still underage. If she wanted to go to the hospital to get an abortion, she needed an adult with her. This could explain why Qi Yunsheng would rather be wronged than admit that someone else had the abortion.
After all, if she denied it, she would expose Fang Yuqing.
Fang Yuqing was still young. If this matter was exposed, her life would be ruined.
Xu Pingfei refused to believe that her obedient daughter would do such a thing. She opened her mouth to cry, but she had to hold it in.
“Qingqing, tell Mom the truth. You’re lying, right?” Xu Pingfei refused to accept this.
Fang Yuqing shook her head. “Mom, I’m sorry.”
As soon as she said that, everyone saw Fang Pingjue quickly walk over and slap Fang Yuqing.
The sound of the slap made everyone’s heart jump.
Fang Pingjue hadn’t held back his strength. Due to the slap, the thin Fang Yuqing fell to the ground.
At this moment, Fang Mu, Fang Yu’an, and Fang Yusheng moved at the same time.
Fang Yu’an was the first to move. He was the first to protect his sister and took the remaining two slaps for her.
Fang Mu grabbed Fang Pingjue’s hand. “Dad, stop hitting them!”
Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng pulled up the siblings and shielded them.
The others stood up as well. Some advised Fang Pingjue to not get angry, while others protected Fang Yuqing. Some even asked Fang Yuqing who that man was.
***
The gathering ended on bad terms. Xie Qingyun left with Fang Qingyun and his children. Fang Ping also left with his wife and children. In the main house, only Fang Mu, Fang Yusheng, and his wife were left.
Fang Pingjue was a shrewd person, so he quickly calmed down and understood everything.
Xu Pingfei sat at the side and secretly wiped her tears. Fang Yuqing was still kneeling on the ground. Due to the slap, her left cheek had swollen.
Qiao Jiusheng was concerned about Fang Yuqing, and she felt uneasy.
The thing that made her uneasy was not Fang Yuqing’s red, swollen face, but her lifeless eyes.
Those eyes looked soulless and devoid of all hope.
This matter had been exposed. The truth would eventually come out. When this news would get out, Fang Yuqing’s reputation would be ruined. In the future, what good family could she find? Even in an arranged marriage, no one would want her.
Fang Pingjue sighed and asked Fang Yuqing, “Who is that man?”
Fang Yuqing lowered her head and did not speak.
Seeing his daughter remain silent, Fang Pingjue only snorted and said, “Even if you don’t say his name, I can still find out.”
Fang Yuqing’s face turned pale.
“Wan Lang, send her back to her room.”
Wan Lang was shocked. Sending Fang Yuqing back to her room did not simply mean to send her back to her room. The deeper meaning was that she would be imprisoned.
As Wan Lang brought Fang Yuqing back to her room, she was very cooperative.
Fang Pingjue was satisfied with her obedient look, but Qiao Jiusheng became even more uneasy.
