Chapter 177 – “What a tramp! How could she?!” (2)
Fang JunRong felt that had Li WangJin lived for a few more years. More likely than not he would have altered his will again. Yesterday was a special circumstance. He wanted to woo XinYun over onto his side so he had the lawyer and witness came over and set up his will. Except that Li ShiZe had driven him to his grave before he could alter it again.
From a certain perspective, Li ShiZe had screwed himself over.
Hearing that, the lawyer was a little angry. “Mr. Li ShiZe, you are insulting my professionalism and my personal moral compass.
“If you don’t believe me, I can have the two witnesses come over right now.”
Li ShiZe didn’t have time to be sad anymore. All he could think of right now was that fact that he didn’t get a penny from his father. Rationally he understood that the lawyer had no reason to lie to him but he had a hard time accepting that on an emotional level.
Fang JunRong chuckled sarcastically as she looked over at her BBQ pork son. “As the man who killed his own father, what leg do you have to stand on to question the legitimacy of the will?
“Even if you are in the will, how shameless are you to actually accept anything from it?”
Her two questions drove all the blood from Li ShiZe’s face. Li ShiZe’s lips was as pale as his cheeks and there was wordless fragileness on his handsome face and pleading in his eyes.
“That’s enough, please.” His voice was fragile and feeble.
Fang JunRong pursed her lips. “Why? You can act so shamelessly but others pointing it out bothers you?”
Jiang YaGe couldn’t help but speak up for her lover. “ShiZe didn’t mean for that to happen. Nobody wants to see tragedy like this. We want uncle to still be alive more than anyone else.”
“That’s enough! You two disgust me!” Looking up abruptly, Li XinYun’s eyes were red and swollen.
“Even if Dad had left his fortune to you, will you really accept it so shamelessly as the one who had killed him?”
Li ShiZe’s lips trembled. He wanted to say something but, instead, his saw his father face before he had lost his consciousness. He was staring at him ferociously, looking vicious and pained.
He looked away reflexively under Li XinYun’s stare.
Li XinYun said coldly to him, “I thought you’d at least show some regret. Obviously, I had overestimated your conscience. Money is still all that you can think about even now instead of the life that you have taken away. You two are as cold and selfish as each other. You are surely match made in heaven and this was truly an eye opener for me.”
She looked over at Li ShiZe. “So this is the woman that you can never forget? A woman who is tender and kind, you said? Hah!”
The “Hah” could not have been more sarcastic.
Her ruthless chastisement made Jiang YaGe turned pale. Mumbling reflexively, Jiang YaGe said, “No, it’s not like that.”
She merely felt that what had happened to Uncle had already happened and could not be changed. Those who were still alive must look forward. She was merely being supportive to her boyfriend and just wanted grab Li ShiZe’s arm to look for support from him.
Remembering his father’s lecturing words before he passed away along with Yage’s behavior just now, Li ShiZe reflexively avoided her when she leaned toward him.
Jiang YaGe was shocked and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
Seeing that, Fang JunRong only felt that this was all very laughable. How was her BBQ pork son any better than Jiang YaGe? Wasn’t the divvying of his father’s fortune his first thought also? This was truly the pot calling the kettle black.
Feeling dispirited, she no longer wanted to be around these two.
After she was done with scolding Li ShiZe and Jiang YaGe, Li XinYun turned to Fang JunRong and said to her, “Mom, why don’t you go home and get some rest. I can take it from here.”
She was young and staying up late once in a while wasn’t a problem at all.
Fang JunRong knew that her daughter was being nice to her. Giving it some thought, she called up her own lawyer and Jiang DeXian to stay with her daughter. They should be able to provide her with some assistance.
Li XinYun walked her to the front of the hospital.
Fang JunRong stroked her head and said, “Just do what you can. Let me know if you need any help, ‘k?”
Li XinYun pulled her lips tight and said, “I will.”
