Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 777: Chapter 781: Lies Come with a Price

“You really are an idiot. I understand everything, yet you still don’t get it!” Ye Xingbei gazed at him. “You’ve been tricked! That night when Siqi was celebrating her 22nd birthday, it was Siqi who slept with you. Stupidly, you thought you were sleeping with Yi Xinning. After Siqi got pregnant with Ah Yao, she gave him to your father. Then you were deceived again and recognized your own son as someone else’s.”

Ye Xingbei shook his head, struggling to determine whether to despise or pity him. “There’s truly no one in this world more foolish than you!”

Fang Lutong stared at Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, frozen in shock for a while. Suddenly, something dawned on him, and his gaze shifted, landing on Yi Xinning’s face.

Moments later, he suddenly exploded with anger, rushing in front of Yi Xinning, knocking her to the ground. He straddled her and clutched her throat. His twisted features looked like a demon from hell: “Was it you? Did you plot against Siqi and me? Was it you?”

He straddled Yi Xinning, tightly clutching her throat. He was choking her to the point her eyes bulged, struggling with strained breaths.

Fang Yixian and Fang Mingzhu, one on each side, attempted to pull him away.

Fang Yixian finally lost his patience, shouting in rage: “Dad, have you lost your mind? She’s my mother! Your wife! The biological mother of Mingzhu and me!”

With one strong push, he toppled Fang Lutong to the ground.

Fang Lutong sat on the ground, staring at him for a while, then suddenly began to laugh.

He laughed and laughed until tears started streaming down his face. “My wife? Ha! What a joke! I’ve been nothing but a joke my entire life!”

He looked at Fang Yao, then slapped himself across the face, consumed by regret which was hard to bear.

Fang Yixian, the son of the woman who schemed against him, he loved and cared for, giving him everything.

Fang Yao, the son of the woman he truly loved, he treated like a prick in his eye and a thorn in his flesh, tormenting him until life became unbearable.

Yi Xinning, clutching her throat, coughed for quite a while before catching her breath.

She looked at Fang Lutong, filled with disbelief: “You wanted to strangle me? I bore your children, managed your household, and you actually wanted to strangle me? Fang Lutong, did you ever love me?”

She abruptly lunged at him, grabbing his collar, “I’m asking you, did you ever love me?”

“I did love you! How could I not have loved you?” Fang Lutong, grabbing her collar, gazed at her with a twisted face: “I thought you were a kind, understanding and devoted woman. Over these years, I’ve been devoted to you too. I took care of you, pampered you, I gave you the honour of the Fang Family, had our kids be good to you. But what are you really? You’re a fake!”

He slapped Yi Xinning fiercely, knocking her to the ground: “It’s all fake! You tricked me! You made me lose the woman I loved the most, fooled me as if I were a fool, you cursed woman!”

Yi Xinning clutched her face, shaking her head in disbelief, “You hit me? Did you really hit me?”

“Enough with the dramatics,” Gu Junzhu, leisurely folding his arms, watched them with interest, “since all four parties involved are here today, I would be very interested to hear what actually happened on Siqi’s 22nd birthday. Would any of you care to elaborate?”

Mi Junyuan glanced at Gu Junzhu and suddenly spoke up, “I’ll go first.”

“Sure,” Gu Junzhu nodded with a smile, “But remember, tell the truth. Lying comes at a price, and being slapped in the face hurts, Mr. Mi.”@@novelbin@@
