Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With gauze over her plaster covered arm, Yang Wenshu held Shangguan Rouxue into her uninjured arm, crying.
Shangguan Zheng tossed the deck of pictures in front of the mother and daughter, furiously. “This is the daughter whom you have brought up? So shameless, she made me lose my face!”
All the guests at the wedding had been their close friends and relatives, and many of them were Shangguan Zheng’s friends in the political field. All of them had seen the disreputable side of his daughter through those terrible pictures. How was he going to face his peers in the future?
“Family Xie wants a divorce now. What do you expect me to say to them? I have lost my reputation in front of Xie Dongfeng, completely. The family is saying that they want a virtuous daughter-in-law rather than a prostitute who drinks and sings on other’s laps. I have never been so humiliated in my entire life as a man!”
Yang Wenshu spoke through her tears, “Xue did all these things for this family. She tried so hard only because she wanted to go a step higher! You had refused to help her because you didn’t want to be talked about by others behind your back, so she had to do everything herself. As a daughter of the Deputy Mayor, she reached this stage because of her own efforts. But everybody thinks that it is because of you!”
“If you as the father had helped her get the contact at TV station, she wouldn’t have had to work so hard. She wouldn’t have to drink with those ugly and demeaning men. She is your daughter. And now she is hurt and you not only refuse to protect or console her, but are getting angry instead. Are you trying to kill her?”
Shangguan Zheng smashed a very expensive rose vase kept next to him, and bellowed furiously, “How dare you talk back! She is spoiled because of you! if you hadn’t indulged her so much, she wouldn’t have done such a shameless thing. Family Xie even suspects that this child is not Xie Zhuojun’s and are asking for a DNA test. You two have become notorious through the entire A City.”
At the mention of Xie Zhuojun, Shangguan Rouxue, who looked like a dull doll and and had been leaning in Yang Wenshu’s arms, suddenly raised her pale face. She spoke in a trembling voice, “Daddy, what did you say? He doesn’t believe that this is his child? He wants a DNA test? This child is his! I don’t want to do the test! Mom, I don’t want to do the test, this is Zhuojun’s child, I swear!”
Yang Wenshu’s arm was hurting because of the stabbing, but when she saw her daughter speak to her in such a pitiful way, her heart almost broke. She even forgot about the pain in her arm.
She held Shangguan Rouxue gently and said tearfully. “My dear daughter, don’t worry. We won’t do the DNA test. Xie Zhuojun can’t get rid of you so easily!”
This was all that bitch Shangguan Ning’s fault. Had it not been for her, her daughter and Xie Zhuojun would have had a romantic and beautiful wedding and then lived happily ever after. But now the relations were broken, and everyone was talking about them behind their backs.
While they were arguing, Xie Zhuojun entered the room with a pale face. He placed some papers on the table and addressed Shangguan Rouxue, without even greeting Shangguan Zheng or Yang Wenshu, “These are the divorce papers, just sign them.”
Hearing his words, Shangguan Rouxue froze. She spoke in a broken voice, “What did you say, Zhuojun?”
“You don’t need to do the DNA test. No matter whose child it is, just abort it. I will compensate you for it. We shouldn’t allow a child to be born in our already broken marriage. This is the best choice.”
Xie Zhuojun had deep black rings below his eyes, and he had been frowning ever since he had entered the room. He was unshaven and looked as if he had been terribly sick. Looking old and bloated, he seemed to have lost his charm as the Master of Family Xie.
Shangguan Rouxue freed herself from Yang Wenshu’s arm and collapsed at Xie Zhuojun’s feet. She held his legs and begged, eyes brimming with tears. “Please listen to me, Zhuojun! None of these is true. I have only loved you. You must believe me. This child is yours, and only yours. How could it be anyone else’s? You are going to become a father. You can’t abandon us. Didn’t you always want a child? I will protect him well and give birth to a healthy baby.”
Xie Zhuojun said in a tired and cold voice, “I can’t believe that this is my child. Our marriage ends here, and I don’t want the child to be born.”
Shangguan Rouxue stood up in panic and held Xie Zhuojun’s waist. She said tearfully, “If you can’t be sure, let’s do the DNA test then. I will do it. I am not scared! This child is yours.”
Unmoved, Xie Zhuojun pushed Shangguan Rouxue off himself and said without emotion, “Just sign it. Text me how much money you want and I will bring it when I come to pick up the divorce papers tomorrow.”
Seeing Xie Zhuojun walk away, Shangguan Rouxue went running after him and shouted, “Please don’t go, Zhuojun, please don’t leave me!”
Xie Zhuojun walked out of the villa’s gate, went to his car and drove off as if he hadn’t heard anything.
Seeing that he had gone away so ruthlessly, Shangguan Rouxue collapsed onto the ground.
She had been planning this for so many years but eventually she failed completely to achieve her dream.
Suddenly, a voice behind her spoke calmly, “The beautiful hostess of A City collapses to the ground, caring nothing about her image. What a touching scene!”
Shangguan Rouxue turned around instantly after she heard the voice.
Snap! Jing Yiran clicked her picture on his cellphone.
“Well well, you look so nice! Looking like a beggar! I am heartened to see you in such a terrible situation!”
He became exceptionally happy seeing the picture where Shangguan Rouxue looked messy and unkempt. He assumed that what he was about to suggest would go very well.
Ignoring Shangguan Rouxe, he strode into the villa.
Yang Wenshu was about to go look for her daughter when she ran into Jing Yiran, who was checking everything around as if he were strolling in his own garden.
Jing Yiran burst into delighted laughter at the sight of her. “Oh gosh, even you look so horrible. Face ruined and arm broken! Shangguan Ning is exactly like her scumbag husband who likes bullying people to death. It seems that I am going to be the savior for your family after having been a destructor for all of my life!”
