Chapter 885: Such a Beautiful Little Sister
The interview scene on Father Chen’s end was considered warm. When it was Fang Pingjun’s turn to walk out with Liu Yu, the reporters’ attitude was not as amiable when they interviewed them.
Their questions were all tricky, and their words were sharp and accusatory. Even though Fang Pingjun was so eloquent, he was left speechless by them. In the end, the two of them left the court safely under the protection of bodyguards and got into their cars.
The moment she got into the car, Liu Yu burst into tears again.
“My son, he has never suffered a day in his life. His life has been smooth-sailing since he was born. How can he withstand life in prison? Life imprisonment. Pingjun, once our Yukang goes to prison, he won’t be able to come out again…”
The more she spoke, the sadder Liu Yu became. She cried her heart out and tears fell one by one.
Fang Pingjun did not feel good either. Liu Yu’s heart ached for her child, but did he not? Fang Pingjun’s heart was also made of flesh, and it would also hurt. However, when he was sad, he did not like to make a sound. Liu Yu’s noisy cries disturbed Fang Pingjun.
“Don’t cry. He deserves it.” After Fang Pingjun said that he deserved it, his eyes started to turn red. Yes, Fang Yukang did deserve such a judgment. However, it did not conflict with his parents’ heartache for him.
Just as Liu Yu had said, their child had lived a rich life since he was born. What kind of place was prison? How could ordinary people withstand it? After entering prison, Fang Yukang would have to work hard for the rest of his life. His life would be ruined just like that.
Liu Yu wiped the tears and mucus off her nose with the back of her hand and scolded, “It’s all that Fang Yusheng’s fault. It’s all his fault! If not for him, our Yukang would have left China long ago!”
Fang Pingjun knew that Fang Yukang deserved this, but he could not help but be dissatisfied with Fang Yusheng.
“Alright, stop it. We can still visit him regularly in the future. It’s not like we won’t see him again.”
Hearing the word visit, Liu Yu’s heart ached even more.
…
Fang Yusheng did not attend the first trial. However, the moment the verdict was given, Fang Yusheng received the news.
After putting down the phone, Fang Yusheng thought of Fang Yukang and sighed.
At this moment, only Aunt Jin was at home. Qiao Jiusheng had gone to work and the children had gone to school. When Aunt Jin heard Fang Yusheng’s sigh, she could not help but look up at him and ask, “Is Young Master Yusheng feeling unwell?”
Fang Yusheng shook his head and continued to stare at his phone. On the phone was the semester project from Fang Zicheng’s teacher. The teacher requested the parents and children to film a micro movie with the theme of “my house” at the end of this semester.
Aunt Jin thought of what had happened recently and probed, “Are you worried about Fang Yukang?”
With that, she saw Fang Yusheng put down his phone.
Fang Yusheng stood up and walked to the kitchen. He leaned against the kitchen door and looked at Aunt Jin, who was preparing dinner. He asked Aunt Jin, “Aunt Jin, do you think I did the right thing?”
After a moment of silence, Aunt Jin said, “I’m not from the Fang family after all. My position is biased towards the poor parents of the Chen family. Young Master Yusheng, do you want to hear the truth?” A praising smile appeared on Aunt Jin’s chubby face. She said, “I think Young Master Yusheng did the right thing. If it weren’t for you, Chen Qingyue’s death would not have been avenged. As for the Chen family’s parents, what kind of tragedy would have happened as they endured excessive grief and pain?”
“Anyway, I think you did the right thing.”
Fang Yusheng said, “I did.”
Liu Yu was unconvinced by the outcome of the trial and even appealed to a higher court. In the end, she was mercilessly rejected. Liu Yu messed up the house again that day. When Fang Yusheng heard about this, he pretended not to know.
The Fang family’s scandal was sensational, and the other families could not help but laugh at it.
On this day, when Xu Pingfei arranged to go to the spa with Madam Lu, she heard Madam Lu say, “Fang Yukang’s matter is not surprising. Is Fang Pingjun really unable to save him?” In the eyes of the other families, it was extremely abnormal that Fang Yukang was really sentenced to life imprisonment this time.
In the past years, there had been cases where children of aristocratic families committed crimes and were exposed after the incident, but it did not hurt them. It was rare to see someone as unlucky as Fang Yukang being sentenced to life imprisonment.
Xu Pingfei had a mask on her face and only a towel around her waist. Upon hearing this, she opened her mouth slightly and said softly, “Fang Pingjun and his wife naturally thought of a way. They originally planned to send Fang Yukang overseas to avoid the disaster.”
“Then why was he still sentenced?”
“Ha… Don’t you know who the real head of the Fang family is, Sister Lu?”
Madam Lu was stunned.
She asked, “Is it that Fang Yusheng?”
“Yes.”
Madam Lu had heard some things about Fang Yusheng and knew that he was unpredictable, so she did not probe further. “Oh right, I’ve mentioned your Qingqing to our Lingyu and showed him a photo.”
“Guess what the young man said after looking at the photo?”
Xu Pingfei was interested. She turned her head slightly to look at her and asked, “What did Lingyu say?”
“He asked me if this photo had been photoshopped.”
Xu Pingfei quickly said, “No, no. I’ve never used fine-tuning or Meitu Xiuxiu. My Yuqing is just that good-looking.” At the mention of her daughter’s looks, Xu Pingfei was proud. Her Yuqing was even more beautiful than when she was young. Her looks could not beat all women, but they could beat 90% of them.
Madam Lu smiled and said, “That’s what I told him too. Then, Lingyu said that he had to meet such a beautiful little sister no matter what.”
“That’s good.”
“How about this? I’ll give you Qingqing’s number. Get Lingyu to contact her. They’re young, so they must have their own thoughts. Us old fellows shouldn’t interfere too much.”
“Okay.”
…
Fang Yuqing had just received a private call. She sent her customer away and returned to her office when she heard her phone ring.
She picked it up and saw that it was Xu Pingfei.
“Mom?” Fang Yuqing said. “I’m at work.”
“There’s no hurry. I have something to tell you.” Xu Pingfei’s tone was very anxious. Fang Yuqing could only listen patiently. “Tell me.”
Xu Pingfei cleared her throat and said, “Do you know that Lingyu from the Lu family?”
After thinking about it, Fang Yuqing asked, “That Young Master Lu? Is he the person who slept with a man and caused a storm?” When Xu Pingfei called, she was still with Madam Lu. In order to make it easier for Madam Lu to know Fang Yuqing’s thoughts, she even turned on the loudspeaker.
