Chapter 175: Marry a Man Like You? Dream On
“Can Aunt Fang agree to that?” Jiang Wei felt that Fang Pingjue was too ruthless.
Jiang Jie snorted and said, “No woman has ever made the decision in a family like ours.”
Jiang Wei remained silent.
That’s right. Although Aunt Fang is also the daughter of a wealthy family, these years, the Xu family has gradually declined and the Fang family has flourished. Aunt Fang is also a full-time housewife, so her words can’t hold their ground.
Jiang Wei heard Jiang Jie continue, “Yuqing committed suicide probably because she could not get over the hurdle in her heart. Now, she’s been saved, but she will have to marry Young Master Xu. Her life is most likely ruined.”
Jiang Wei’s heart ached when he thought that a cute and bright girl like Fang Yuqing would be depressed for the rest of her life.
“I told you! I don’t know who that person is.”
After being interrogated again, Fang Yuqing still refused to admit who the child’s father was.
What’s the use of admitting it?
Marry Hu Cheng?
Or watch Father mess with Hu Cheng?
Hu Cheng was a scumbag. Fang Yuqing had been young and blind to have chosen the wrong person. She accidentally had a child. Now that she already had the child aborted, what was the use of bringing up Hu Cheng?
Fang Yuqing only wished that she would never have anything to do with Hu Cheng again in this lifetime.
When Fang Pingjue heard Fang Yuqing’s answer, he could not help but snort.
“Then you’ve agreed to marry Young Master Xu?”
Fang Yuqing added, “No.” She did not plan to get married in this lifetime.
“It’s not up to you to marry or not.” Fang Pingjue told her the cruel truth. “You’re now a withered flower that everyone in Binjiang City knows about. Who else do you think will want you? If Young Master Xu is willing to marry you, you will at least have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life. You will be prosperous.” As a father, it was indeed a little cruel to say that his daughter was a withered flower.
But no one could deny that this was reality.
Fang Yuqing’s reputation was ruined.
She was too embarrassed to go back to school.
Tears gradually filled Fang Yuqing’s eyes, but she did not cry. She stubbornly stared at Fang Pingjue and firmly said, “Dad, don’t make that decision. I won’t marry Young Master Xu.” Young Master Xu was a playboy. Marrying him was just jumping into another deep pit.
Besides, being someone else’s stepmother was not the life she wanted.
Fang Pingjue scolded her, “You don’t have a choice in your current situation!”
Fang Yuqing was speechless.
She turned her head and looked out of the window. Her mood was gray.
“In that case, why did you save me?”
Fang Yuqing’s words made Fang Pingjue even angrier. “You kill yourself so easily. Who do you think you’re scaring? The person dying is you, and the one hurting the most is you!
“You really don’t want to say that person’s name, right?” Fang Pingjue took a deep breath and said, “I’ll call Young Master Xu now and ask him to come and see you.”
Fang Yuqing’s face turned pale.
“Don’t you dare!”
Xu Pingfei, who had rushed to the hospital with nourishing soup, instantly became fierce when she heard Fang Pingjue’s words. She walked over and snatched Fang Pingjue’s phone. Fang Pingjue’s eyebrows jumped. “What are you doing!”
Xu Pingfei threw away the phone and looked up at Fang Pingjue with a fearless gaze. She said, “Fang Pingjue, you stinky men are all half-hearted. If I didn’t have a choice back then, would I have married you? Do you think it’s really easy to be a stepmother and look at people’s expressions at all times?”
She pointed at her chest and continued, “Ever since the day I, Xu Pingfei, married you, I haven’t been happy a single day! I had no choice but to marry you, Fang Pingjue. Today, I’ll say this. You want my daughter to marry a man who’s useless like you? Dream on!”
Fang Pingjue had never seen Xu Pingfei so fierce with her words.
He looked at Xu Pingfei in disbelief as if he did not know this person.
His wife had always been gentle and dignified. When had she been so sharp?
They had been husband and wife for decades. How could he be so pathetic in her eyes?
Qiao Jiusheng, who had come with Xu Pingfei, silently stood outside the door. When she heard what Xu Pingfei had said, she could not help but look at her in a different light.
She’s really amazing. It turns out that this woman also dares to bare her fangs at Fang Pingjue.
Qiao Jiusheng smiled and looked up. From the corner of her eye, she saw a young man walking over.
She turned her head and recognized him.
“Young Master Jiang Wei?”
Two days ago, when Fang Yuqing had attempted suicide, everyone had been in a mess. Qiao Jiusheng had not paid attention to Jiang Wei, but she vaguely remembered that he was also there. Seeing him again, she asked Jiang Wei in surprise, “Are you here to see Yuqing?”
Jiang Wei nodded and asked her, “How is she today?”
“She’s alive.”
“That’s good.”
The two of them stood outside the door. At this moment, Jiang Wei heard Xu Pingfei scolding Fang Pingjue in the ward.
He felt awkward as if he had come at the wrong time.
“No one will want her! It’s not like you’re unaware of how horrible people’s words are. Do you know what they say about Yuqing?” Fang Pingjue looked at the fierce woman in front of him. His eyes were half helpless and half angry. “They say that since Yuqing ended up with an abortion before she’s even an adult, she would still be as improper when she gets married in the future.
“They say, ‘Cuckolding is easy. Worse, she might even be ungrateful and use their money to buy a pretty boy!’
“Some even said that marrying her would be an insult to their family values!
“It’s already like this! Who will still be willing to marry her in the future?” Fang Pingjue also didn’t want to marry Fang Yuqing to Young Master Xu. However, he was afraid that by the time Fang Yuqing reached the age of marriage, even a playboy like Young Master Xu would not want her.
