Chapter 191: A Vegetable “The abuse I endured and the permanent damage that my body suffered cannot be for nothing. If your brother was really wronged, overturn his case with proper evidence. Otherwise, I beg you to please let justice prevail in this matter. Don’t bully a weak victim like me! I believe that rather than forcing me to give in, your brother would also prefer to have his name properly cleared. Otherwise, the shadow of his guilty sentence will never truly leave him.”
Sun Fangfang knew she had no way of preventing this. Thus, she appealed to the other party’s logic and emotions both.
“Alright. I will look for concrete evidence.” Fang Xinxin was not completely without conscience.

Since Sun Fangfang was begging her so sincerely, she would wait for Hei Xiao to bring that thief, Wang Liangping, back and to overturn the case through him.
“Since I’ve already given the six thousand dollars to you, hold onto it.” Fang Xinxin stood up and brought out another three thousand dollars. She placed it on the coffee table. “This is to settle the bill. You’re working for this bar to bring customers here to be scammed for their money. At the end of the day, this is an illegal job. You’ll escape unscathed if you stop now. But if you keep going on, sooner or later, you’ll be locked up.”
Fang Xinxin had just stood up from the booth when she suddenly paused. “Also, Fang Manxue is not Bai Qinghao’s fiancée. I am.”
She knew without turning around that Sun Fangfang’s expression was that of astonishment.
“In this world, there are many matters that are not as straightforward as they appear to be.” Fang Xinxin left these words behind and walked away.
Not as straightforward as you see...

Sun Fangfang deliberated over these words dazedly in the booth seat.
Could it be that the man, who had harmed her, wasn’t Fang Shaohua?
...
Fang Xinxin returned to the Fang home. She had only just entered the living room when she received Fang Lilan’s reprimand. “Xinxin, you damn brat! Where did you go? You actually dared to stay out for a night!”
“I went to visit Dad. I slept by his bedside the entire night.” Her icy cold gaze shifted onto Fang Lilan’s wrinkled, but attractive features. “And, you owe me an explanation. For the past three years, why have you never paid a single cent for Dad’s medical treatment?”
Fang Lilan was not afraid to answer this question. “Didn’t your brother, Fang Shaohua, pay for it? Why would I make another payment?”

Three years ago, she had tried to withdraw the money that Fang Shaohua had paid for Long Yifan’s treatment fees. Since the sum had been paid from Fang Shaohua’s account, if she withdrew that money, it would only return to his account and not to her hands. Had this not been the case, she would already have taken the money out.
Fang Xinxin’s expression was stern. “Does that mean you left my Dad alone and unattended for three years?”
“Isn’t it because I’ve been busy?” Fang Lilan put on a helpless expression. “After your dad and brother met with accidents, the entire Fang family has been relying on me to survive. How could I possibly have had the time...”
“That’s true. You were so busy you couldn’t even make time for a hospital visit in the span of three whole years...”
Fang Lilan lifted her well-groomed brows in unhappiness. “How can you use such a sarcastic tone against me? I’m your mom!”
“Are you?”
“Of course I am.” Fang Lilan’s expression was open. “I carried you for ten months in my womb.” She then put on a guilty look. “Xinxin ah, I know that you’re angry at me for not visiting your Dad. But... have you thought about it? You Dad is a vegetable. What’s the point in me visiting him?”
“That’s right.” Fang Manxue made her way down the stairs. “Third Sister, as a child, how could you criticise your own mother?”
Fang Xinxin smiled mockingly. “Fang Manxue, do you also feel that there’s no point in visiting your own father now that he is in a coma?”
“If you mind it so much, at most, I’ll go visit him one of the days.” Fang Manxue changed the topic and interrogated her. “I haven’t settled the bill with you! When Second Uncle offered to take you shopping, who asked you to buy something for me? I don’t like any of the things that you chose!”
