Chapter 61 – Justice Where Justice Was Due (2)
Zhong Yi no longer looks at Jiang YaGe through filters. After finding out about the affair between Jiang YaGe’s aunt and Li WangJin, she did not believe that Jiang YaGe was entirely innocent in all this. She had gone from friends to strangers with Jiang YaGe.
By now, Li XinYun, who had been traveling, had returned. Afterall, her birthday was getting close. She received the news of her parents’ divorce immediately after her return, and she was stunned.
Even though she preferred her mother to her father and that she had some rough time with her father as of late, that didn’t mean she wanted to see her parents divorced.
Seeing her dazed look, Fang JunRong’s heart ached as she stroked her daughter on her face. She had no intention of covering up for Li WangJin and told Li XinYun everything. She did not, however, show her the video. There was no need for her to see that.
Li XinYun bit her lip, and there was anger amidst her being dazed still. “How could dad do that? How could he betray you? Why didn’t you tell me then?”
After finding out about her father’s behaviors, she couldn’t bring herself to say that her parents should not have gotten a divorce. She was at the age of thinking about romance fondly, so no way she would find cheating acceptable.
“You were having fun overseas and I didn’t want to spoil your mood,” said Fang JunRong. Plus, she didn’t want Li WangJin to drag this out using XinYun as an excuse. She specifically had those around XinYun take her out at the time. Preferably, she would have so many things to do that she wouldn’t even think about what was going on at home.
“What about big brother? What did he say about all this?”
Fang JunRong had no intention to make Li ShiZe appeared better than he actually was in her daughter’s mind. She told Li XinYun everything. Besides, she didn’t want Li XinYun still has any expectations about her brother.
Li Jinyuan was about to go mad from anger. Li ShiZe was two years her senior and had always been more outstanding and more mature than her. She had always looked up to her brother deep down inside. She hadn’t expected that her brother would take Jiang YaGe’s side on this matter. Anyone with eyes could see Jiang YaGe couldn’t be completely innocent in this.
She bit her bottom lip and said, “Let me go talk to him!”
Then she dashed out like a bullet; her luggage still sitting in the living room.
Fang JunRong had the chauffeur and a bodyguard follow her. She wouldn’t let anything happen to her daughter.
Li XinYun returned after three hours. Her eyes looked much puffier than before. She had obviously cried.
Seeing Fang JunRong, Li XinYun pouted and said in a wronged voice, “I don’t want to have anything to do with them anymore.”
Fang JunRong’s heart ached, but she also knew that it was necessary to shatter that image that XinYun had for them. They would otherwise use her love for them to take advantage of her.
“You won’t need to. You have me.”
Li XinYun sniffled and said, “I don’t want to see them at my birthday banquet.”
“Okay, I will tell them to not come.” Fang JunRong was very agreeable.
She spent quite a bit of time with her daughter before she finally left her room when XinYun went to bed.
She said to Zhong Yi, “Why don’t you spend some more time with XinYun in the next few days? She had always liked you.” Plus, they were close in age and had more in common.
Zhong Yi nodded. “I will.”
She was appreciative toward her adopted mother. If it wasn’t for her, she would still be working at White Crane and put up with the risks of being groped. And, as she no longer needed to worry about medical fees, her grandmother’s situation had stabilized.
In her eyes, her adopted mother was a benefactor to her.
