Chapter 727 A threat
”Why do you look so shocked, did you think I will never find out?” Fu Juan’s husband asked with a smirk, then he chuckled heartily.
He enjoyed every second the horror could last on her face.
Fu Juan was more than shocked that he knew her deepest secret, but how did he find out? Where did she slip off?
”If you take this message as a threat, that will be better. If you don’t sign the divorce papers when I send them to you, I will expose you to your family, and also to the world. Your Fu family appearing on the frontline newspapers because of your mess should be fun. Also, the company you care so much about would suffer.”
After saying that to her, he gave her one last silly look before proceeding to walk past her. But it looks like remembered something and had to turn around to speak to her again.
”Come to think of it, you are the reason for what I did. After finding out about such a thing, how could I stay still? You really should blame yourself for everything and stop acting so righteous!”
Right now, Fu Juan’s eyes were red. She had pains and fear in her eyes, but sue didn’t dare to cry or make a sound. The secret she has been hiding for so many years was out to her enemy, and now he was going to use it to get what he wanted.
Fu Juan just stood there motionless. She didn’t say a word, and she didn’t move an inch. She just remained in position and only heard his retreating footsteps.
’This can’t be happening!’ She screamed in her head. By the time she recovered, three servants were walking in her direction with some cleaning items.
Fu Juan sniffed and forced back her emotions. before walking past them. On her way, the only thought that was going through her head was how she could avert today. And also if it was possible to wipe someone’s memories away.
As for Lanying, she quickly hid when her mother was walking away, and after she had crossed her, she came out from her hiding place and fixed a hurtful gaze on her mother.
There was no way she would have heard that was whispered to her ears, but as for the remaining conversation, she heard it clearly.
Her mother was being blackmailed, and for some reason, she was very angry about something.
When Fu Juan got into her room, she was still in a trance for a few more minutes before breaking out in tears.
”Aiguo! You will pay for this! How dare you threaten me?!” Fu Juan screamed at top of her lungs.
Her eyes looked redder than before, and her veins could be seen very clearly along her neck area. Showing how much pressure she used, to scream those words out.
”Does my sin compare to yours? You are only finding excuses to cover up what you did?! You want a divorce, dream on! I would like to see how you will expose me in front of everybody! You will have to still be alive for that to happen!” Fu Juan swore with bloodshot eyes and ragged breathing.
She looked so different when she was angry up to this point. If she was given a knife, she would not hesitate to stab her husband.
That night, Fu Juan did not come down for dinner, and the food that was sent into her bedroom remained untouched as she asked the servants to send it away.
Lanying was very quiet during dinner. She was not pretending to be innocent, but because she was still angry with what transpired earlier between her mother and her husband.
Lanying was the first to leave the dinner table and from her facial, she didn’t look that cheerful.
”What is she angry about?” FangSu leaned over to ask Meixu.
Meixu scoffed and said, “I don’t know, and I don’t care. What I know is that she should never appear on my wedding day next week.”
”Do you think that is possible?” FangSu asked with a slight frown.
Meixu seemed unbothered as she replied, “I get to detect what happens on my wedding day, and if some people don’t like it, they can also sit back and fold their arms.”
FangSu smiled and leaned away. She knew very well of whom she was talking about. Given their Aunt’s personality and with the family forcing her to divorce, she would use this opportunity and gain the courage to find trouble again.
Fu Juan would go on to complain that the way her daughter was being treated was unfair and may threaten not to attend the wedding.
After dinner, Jia Li and Fu Hua retired to their bedroom, while Jasmine went to her bedroom to sleep.
On getting to their bedroom, Jia Li complained about feeling hot.
”Can you feel how hot the weather is? I am so uncomfortable.”
”Maybe it’s because you just finished eating something hot and spicy as you requested, plus the food was hot.” Fu Hua said with a smile.
”Is that so? But the food wasn’t that hot, if not, my tongue would still be burning up till this moment.” Jia Li said with a frown.
She didn’t know why she was feeling an internal heat. If it was from the food she ate, her lips would have been burning by now.
Fu Hua had to explain to her that it was possible that she must have lost a part of her taste for spicy food, because the quality of food she ate tonight that had enough pepper, was enough to burn her tongue.
”… because you can get how spicy the food you ate was, you have forgotten that it can still stimulate your body and cause you to sweat.”
Since it looked like her tongue was malfunctioning due to the pregnancy hormones, her other body parts were still okay, and could still detect her body temperature.
Jia Li finally got it now. “Is that so? Then I hope my body temperature comes back to normal, otherwise, I will feel very irritated.”
