Lin Yu gritted her teeth and glared at Fang Xi, who had lowered her eyes, drinking her fruit juice. Lin Yu said stubbornly, āBut I feel quite happy, anyway. Iāve always felt Iām the happiest person in the world.ā
She looked at Fang Xi and continued, āIt wasnāt until I heard that Xi Cheng had another woman by his side that I panicked. Before that, I thought he and I had a tacit understanding. I thought, like me, he wouldnāt have any romantic entanglements with others since he already has a lifelong partner. But I was wrong.ā
āXi Cheng protected that woman very well. He didnāt let anyone know of her existence. He was afraid that we would hurt her. Do you know how I lived all those years? Every day, I lived in fear; I was too afraid of losing Xi Cheng. I waited humbly, waiting for Xi Cheng to get tired of her and return to me, to let all of this pass and disappear into smoke.ā With that, Lin Yu lowered her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Fang Xi frowned. She had a feeling that Lin Yu was talking about her. Lin Yu sighed gustily and went on, āBut I waited year after year. Xi Cheng didnāt break off his engagement with me but didnāt break up with that woman either. So, I thought it was fine so long as Xi Cheng didnāt reveal that woman to the public.
Itās fine as long as Iām still openly the Xi familyās young mistress. After all, Xi
Cheng still has feelings for meāhe didnāt cancel our engagement. Do you think
Iām silly for putting myself so low?ā
āAnd then what happened?ā Fang Xi asked impatiently. āDid that woman of Xi Chengās fall in love with someone else?ā
Lin Yu looked at Fang Xi with disdain as she replied, āNo! After she pestered Xi Cheng for seven years, hoping to marry into the Xi family, but to no avail, she took five million dollars from my mother-in-law and left Xi Cheng.ā
Fang Xi stared at Lin Yu, stunned. Lin Yu laughed viciously. āFang Xi, you took five million dollars as breakup fee from the Xi family. You canāt write that off just because you lost your memory.ā
Fang Xi pointed at herself. āYouāre saying I took five million dollars from you
Lin Yu nodded. āThatās right!ā
Fang Xi lowered her hand and sat up straight. āThen what do you want? Do you want me to return the money? Or return him?ā
Lin Yu looked at her and measuredly stated, āYou already have Ye Kun and are getting ready to marry into the Ye family. Donāt tell me you still want to return to Xi Chengās side! You have one other choice! Iāll give you another five million to leave this country and go far away! What do you say?ā
Fang Xi gazed at Lin Yu, saw her nervous expression, and couldnāt help but chuckle, āMiss Lin, are you that worried about me? Youāre still worried even though Iām marrying Ye Kun and want to send me far away. You want me to never appear before Xi Cheng again, right?ā
Lin Yu didnāt say anything. Fang Xi touched Lin Yuās coffee cup and said,
āAlthough youāre a terrible storyteller, I understand your story. Iām sorry, but Iām not very familiar with my financial statusāI donāt know if Iāve received five million dollars in my account. I need to confirm this with my financial manager, but if I had accepted it, then weād already concluded our business. You guys paid me to leave Xi Cheng, and I did.ā
She continued, āIf I hadnāt received that money, please pay me the due amount or write me an IOU, Miss Lin. I canāt have people say Iāve taken that sum when I havenāt actually done so. As for you asking me to leave Ye Kun⦠Iām sorry; thatāll be another price. You want to buy me and Ye Kunās future with five million dollars? Impossible. Even if I agree, Ye Kun wonāt.ā
Lin Yuās expression changed. Fang Xi stood up and propped herself up with her crutches before she turned around and said, āThank you, Miss Lin, for coming to settle our accounts. This kind of business is quite easy. However, I donāt think Iām the type to trade my relationship for money. Youāre free to believe what you want, but we need to clarify the matter of that five million dollars.ā With that, Fang Xi left. Lin Yu was so angry as she stared at Fang Xiās retreating back that she trembled all over. She didnāt expect that this meeting she had meticulously planned would actually turn out to be a lesson in humiliation!
ā Not only is Fang Xi unscathed, but she also cleared herself of those five million dollars,ā Lin Yu inwardly fumed. ā That woman is too shrewd!ā
There was no way Lin Yu would believe Fang Xi had lost her memory. Recalling the silent and defeated-looking Fang Xi back when sheād met her and Han Yuan, Lin Yu really regretted not giving her a bigger blow then. She should have driven her into jumping off a building.
Fang Xi, who had returned to her office to work overtime, suddenly looked at the envelope sheād received during the day. She had a hunch that the set of keys and address had something to do with her and Xi Cheng. She packed up and decided to go to the scene to take a look..
