Chapter 1145: The Story of Ling and Heng (408)
“No wonder you were repatriated back to the United States overnight and the police even accused you of the crime of intentional a.s.sault. We were so worried about you, but Mingzhu, what have you done?! Now, what else do you have to say?” Grandfather Feng was very angry but tried to maintain his sense, scolding angrily, “You said Nanheng framed you, cornered you into despair and ruined your reputation, and you said you were unable to find a man to marry because of him! Now, how can you explain this surveillance video?!”
Feng Mingzhu opened her mouth, and as soon as she wanted to speak, Li Nanheng said coldly, “Miss Feng even pretended to commit suicide and forced my family and me to come over. You’ve gotta give us a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, people will think the Li family is a bunch of pushovers! If you don’t give us a convincing explanation, we won’t leave.”
Feng Mingzhu trembled and looked at the elders of the Li family. They were musing. Obviously, they had already guessed the truth but couldn’t make a final conclusion yet, so they were looking at her suspiciously.
“I…”
“Mingzhu, you’ve even committed suicide. Why don’t you still tell us what exactly happened? Now Nanheng is also here. And… we’ve seen the surveillance video. We can’t just pretend nothing had happened.” Grandfather Li said, looking at Feng Mingzhu. “According to the content in this surveillance video, it seems that you bribed the waiter to do something for you. Did you fall in love with that big-bellied bald man?”
“I didn’t!” When he mentioned that Mr. Liu, Feng Mingzhu almost threw up. “That was a misunderstanding…”
When she said “misunderstanding,” her voice sounded a little weaker. She just wanted to explain when she noticed the cold and indifferent gaze of Li Nanheng, and she felt that her blood was freezing.
She didn’t even have a chance to tell a lie or justify herself…
This man really didn’t intend to save her any face.
Feng Mingzhu bit her lip and looked at Li Nanheng, saying with red eyes, “Nanheng, do you have to force me to die?”
Li Nanheng remained deadpan. Without looking at her red, swollen eyes, he said indifferently, “Miss Feng, before you committed suicide, I was still in China and had no intention to return to the United States to hold you accountable, but who made this matter public? Me?”
Feng Mingzhu: “…”
She went speechless, moved her lips but couldn’t utter a word.
He counterplotted her and cornered her to this point. She cried and threatened because she suffered a great loss, but it was she who started everything. Although she didn’t think she was to blame, she couldn’t justify herself.
However, Li Nanheng took this chance to push her to this point step by step. She didn’t believe that he hadn’t expected that this matter would get to this point. He knew that she would be repatriated to the US and what would happen next, so he had even got the surveillance video from Mr. Kai in advance!
He never planned to save her any face.
But yes, he seemed to have never had any affection for her.
Finally realizing how ruthless this man was to her, Feng Mingzhu clenched her cuff and her red, swollen face turned pale.
“Mingzhu, what on earth happened?” Grandmother Feng asked with a trembling voice, unable to bear the blow. She looked at her, asking, “Did you really bribe the waiter?”
“I… I…” Feng Mingzhu choked up. “Grandma, I…”
“Since Miss Feng can’t say anything except that she wants to commit suicide and accused that she can’t find a man to marry because of me, let me speak for her,” Li Nanheng said and projected a test report on his cell phone to the TV screen. “This is a medicine that Miss Feng gave to the waiter and asked him to put on a gla.s.s of wine last night. These are the contents of the report.”
Everyone looked at the screen again, and when they saw the words “an aphrodisiac that increases libido dozens of times,” they all frowned in disbelief.
“This…”
“This is what Miss Feng gave to the waiter. Miss Feng, do you still need me to explain for you what exactly happened at that time?” Li Nanheng asked lightly.
He was asking her but his tone was obviously mocking.
Feng Mingzhu suddenly turned to look at him. “Yes! I wanted to drug you! I wanted to have s.e.x with you! So after you noticed it, you treated me that way? You know I have fallen for you for so many years. Is it a sin for me to love you? No matter what method I used, you have nothing to lose, but you counterplot me and ruin me!”
What? !
Did she want to use that medicine… on Li Nanheng?
The truth shocked everyone, and the elders of the Li family looked at each other quietly and did not speak, but Grandfather Feng and Grandmother Feng turned black in an instant.
“s.h.i.+t!” Grandfather Feng suddenly shouted angrily, “Mingzhu, how can you be so shameless? Nanheng is still your nominal brother-in-law. How dare you…”
“Brother-in-law? Do I have a sister?” Feng Mingzhu was irritated. She had thought that she could get something by making such a scene. Now that there was no hope, she simply said, “My so-called sister has died a long time ago. You old fools! How ridiculous for you to make Li Nanheng marry a dead one-year-old baby! I don’t have a sister! Brother-in-law? He has never been my brother-in-law in my eyes. I only know that I like him for many years, but in the end, he threw me aside and would rather marry a dead soul. He forced me to this point, and now the three-year agreement has expired. I don’t admit he is my brother-in-law!”
“You…” Grandfather Feng was about to scold her, but he was so angry that he couldn’t say anything. He coughed violently, raised his finger to her, but couldn’t say a word.
Feng Mingzhu said with red eyes, “When the Li family said they were going to marry my dead sister, you only wanted to maintain the relations.h.i.+p between the two families and give that dead soul a home, but have you ever thought about me?! I love him so much! But you want me to call him brother-in-law? I can’t do it!”
