Chapter 887: Chapter 887: She Tricked Me Just Like This

Shi Mufeng was merely curious and had asked, but with his imminent exile abroad for self-reflection, he no longer wished to dwell on the past in Capital City. As Rong Weiwei’s answers remained vague, he didn’t press further. Abandoning his intention to continue kissing, his voice hoarse, he said, “Before I came to see you, I went to Mr. Huang. Initially, he was unwilling to talk, but after I gave him one hundred thousand yuan, he told me everything he knew.”

“He said that he and Rong Yan had no children, and he didn’t know how Rong Yan became pregnant initially. It was you who found him, offering him money to claim the child in front of the media and slander Rong Yan. For the money, he did as you instructed. Later, at the press conference, the reason his wife created a scene was because she saw you making a financial transaction with him and misunderstood that you two were having an affair.”

These truths hit him one after another, stinging his face sharply. He now wanted to know just how much more she had lied to him!

“Wei, didn’t you tell me it was Rong Yan who bribed his wife to deliberately slander you at the press conference? Do you remember?”

He dredged up each of Rong Weiwei’s discomfiting past actions, making her expression extremely ugly. “I wasn’t lying; it was indeed Rong Yan who bribed his wife to frame me for having an improper relationship with that man!”

Seeing her unrepentant, Shi Mufeng directly pointed out, “But you didn’t tell me that you indeed bribed Huang Youde first to slander Rong Yan in the media.”

“I… ” Rong Weiwei found no explanation and finally said, “If I didn’t strike first, do you think she would have let me off? I was also just protecting myself.”

Shi Mufeng went round in circles and returned to the original question, “Why wouldn’t she let you off? Just because I was with you back then?”

“Honestly, you and I being together was our shared issue, not just yours alone. Besides, back then, my relationship with her was merely normal; we were all young and naive. The likelihood of a breakup in the future was high, and even though we were morally wrong, that’s all in the past. You’ve apologized to her more than once, so why are you still afraid of her not letting you go?” Shi Mufeng’s mind had cleared up, “What are you really afraid of?”

Rong Weiwei was left speechless, unable to refute. Perhaps it was the long confinement that had impacted her, as under the intense mental pressure, faced with Shi Mufeng’s relentless questioning, she could no longer craft flawless lies as before. Quickly growing irritable, she declared, “Why should I be afraid? I just don’t like her. Yes, that’s it—I simply don’t like her. I can’t stand her!”

“Who would have thought she was born a princess envied by everyone? From the very first moment I saw her, I disliked her, and my dislike only grew over time. Do you need a reason to dislike someone? I see her as the petty and vindictive type, so I took preemptive action for my safety—what’s wrong with that? Should I have waited until she framed me and then retaliate?”

Shi Mufeng wanted to say, that’s not how she spoke of Rong Yan at the beginning; when she talked about Rong Yan back then, her eyes were filled with envy and a timid reluctance to hope.

It was that pitiful and appealing demeanor that had moved him, gradually making him fall for this seemingly kind and fragile girl who needed protection.
