Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Fang Yusheng’s guidance, he was no longer stubborn.
The father and son returned to the dormitory together. The moment Fang Yusheng entered the room, he heard Qiao Jiusheng say, “You’re back?”
“You’re not asleep yet?”
Qiao Jiusheng sat up and stared at Fang Yusheng as he took off his clothes before saying, “How can I sleep?” Knowing that Fang Yusheng was going to the hospital to visit Fang Pingjun, Qiao Jiusheng was not so careless that she could fall asleep at any time.
Fang Yusheng pressed her onto the bed. “It’s fine. Go to sleep.”
!!
“Yeah.”
Fang Pingjun’s accident made the Fang family worry for a period of time. Fang Yuqing and Jiang Wei also felt especially vexed. After all, the day of Fang Pingjun’s accident was the night of their wedding.
After a long time, everyone finally accepted the fact that Fang Pingjun was really crippled. While he was receiving treatment in the hospital, the Fang Corporation held a few board meetings and finally chose a new vice president to temporarily replace Fang Pingjun.
However, everyone knew that this ‘temporary replacement’ would soon become permanent.
Fang Pingjun had already become like this, so it was impossible for him to return to work. His only son was in prison, he was crippled, and his daughter was a useless piece of mud. Fang Pingjun’s entertainment company was in chaos.
The celebrities under the company jumped s.h.i.+p one after another. Those big brothers and sisters who still cared about their old relations.h.i.+p were still watching. They were waiting to see who the company would fall into. If the new CEO could lead the company to continue developing, then they did not have to find the next one.
In just a month, Fang Pingjun, who had once been high-spirited even when he was middle-aged, seemed to have changed into a different person. He had lost a lot of weight, and his originally chubby face had become extremely thin. His cheekbones were prominent, and his eyes had become gloomy. The change in his body was as if he had been reborn.
Liu Yu had been taking care of Fang Pingjun during this period of time. She was already mentally and physically exhausted, but in the end, her younger brother’s nephew got into trouble again. Her nephew fought with someone and cut off half his neck, causing the other party to be seriously injured and unconscious until now.
Her only son was going to jail. Liu Yu’s brother was terrified and ran to beg Liu Yu.
Liu Yu had been living a distraught life recently. Not long ago, her son was in prison, and now her husband had lost a leg. Her family did not comfort her. Not only did they help, they even caused trouble. Liu Yu felt even more vexed.
For the first time, she gave her brother a stern look in front of him and rejected him immediately. “It’s useless to look for me. Liu Hui has committed a crime himself. Why are you looking for me! If he has the ability to hack someone to death, he should be prepared to go to jail!”
Upon hearing this, Brother Liu was stunned at first. This was the first time he had been rejected by Liu Yu like this, and Brother Liu could not accept it. His heart ached, and he humbly begged Liu Yu and said many good words.
Liu Yu looked at her brother crying as he spoke. She thought of her son who had gone to jail and felt bitter. In the past, if such a thing happened to her brother’s family, Liu Yu would definitely not stand by and watch.
However, things were different now. Their family no longer had the ability to help their younger brother’s family.
Liu Yu sighed and said, “Little Brother, it’s not that I don’t care about our old relations.h.i.+p, but I really have no choice!”
“Sister, Xiao Hui is your nephew! Do you really want to watch him go to jail? Sister, our Xiao Hui only fought with someone and cut him. The other party is not dead. This is different from Yukang’s matter!”
Brother Liu was a little excited, so he did not notice how his words had pierced his sister’s heart. He said, “Yukang committed the crime of rape and murder. Our Xiao Hui merely partic.i.p.ated in an ordinary fight. He can settle the matter by spending some money!”
Upon hearing her underling’s words, Liu Yu’s expression changed drastically.
Her face suddenly darkened as she tried her best to control her urge to scold her underling. Liu Yu took a deep breath and pointed at the door. She said to her underling, “Get out. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you said just now.”
The Liu family’s younger brother suddenly fell silent.
Only then did he realize that he had accidentally blurted out the truth in his heart.
Little Brother Liu was filled with regret.
However, he needed money to compensate the victim. Their family did not have money, but Liu Yu did. This time, he had to ask his sister to help him again.
Little Brother Liu shamelessly said to Liu Yu, “Sister, I said something wrong. I’m also too confused and didn’t hold back. I can only ask for your help with Xiao Hui’s matter. Sister, I don’t want much, just three million! Three million can settle this matter…”
“Not even 300 yuan.” Liu Yu still remembered what her underling had said just now and felt hatred in her heart. Hearing her underling ask for another three million yuan, Liu Yu did not have a good expression. “Leave. I won’t care if you live or die this time.”
Seeing that Liu Yu was really prepared to leave him in the lurch, her brother, who had been pleading softly just a moment ago, suddenly changed his expression. The respect and pity on his face were no longer there. They were like a fake mask.
Liu Yu was stunned when she saw her brother’s expression change.
The underling said, “You’ve suffered retribution yourself. Your son has become a reformer, and you can’t wait for our Xiao Hui to go to jail too? Sister, do you really think you’re that powerful? In the past, your family was rich and powerful, so I had no choice but to curry favor with you in a low voice. Do you think your family is still the same as before? Do you think you can get whatever you want? Sister, Brother-in-law has already become a cripple, and Yukang is also in prison. Your family is finished!”
With that, he saw that his sister was so angry that her eyes were about to pop out. Instantly, he felt a sense of satisfaction from revenge.
Liu Yu was so angry that she grabbed a vase beside her and threw it at her brother.
“Get lost!”
“Get out!”
The vase hit his brother and he screamed. The man’s legs jumped and he ran out of the Fang family home cursing. The house suddenly fell silent. The helpers hid in the kitchen, not daring to make a sound.
Liu Yu rushed to the door and scolded her brother for being a jerk. After scolding him, she thought of her family’s miserable situation and sat down on the sofa, sobbing again.
The next day, she went to pick Fang Pingjun up from the hospital. Liu Yu looked very haggard. In the past, when she saw her wife’s listless expression, Fang Pingjun would definitely ask her a few questions.
However, Fang Pingjun did not have those thoughts now.
On the way home, Liu Yu asked Fang Pingjun, “Why did you run out in the middle of the night that night?”
Fang Pingjun’s expression was malicious and he did not speak.
Liu Yu was puzzled and asked again, “Why did you run out in the middle of the night? Who are you going to see?” The police had also asked Fang Pingjun this question, but Fang Pingjun had always been against Mo Yan when facing the police.
Why he went to the streets in the middle of the night was a mystery.
The victim refused to cooperate, so it was difficult for the police to find the real culprit. Liu Yu said, “If you don’t tell the police, we definitely won’t be able to catch the bad person behind it.”
