Chapter 1617: Chapter 1619: Get Out
Kuang Kanzhi nearly felt his brain burst when he heard these words.
He staggered and glared at Xiao Fang, who had been sitting silently on the side. âAre you just going to sit there? Sheâs your daughter too!â
Xiao Fang wasnât indifferent to Kuang Qingqingâs behavior; itâs just that sheâd already talked to her about Lee Wenwei countless times. No matter how much she tried, Kuang Qingqing wouldnât listen.
She had no idea what kind of spell had been cast over her. In Kuang Qingqingâs eyes now, Lee Wenwei was a paragon of perfection, flawless and matchless.
To her, there wasnât a single man in the world who could compare to him.
Xiao Fang felt helpless and heartbroken.
This was how it always was. When a woman gets charmed by a man, she becomes blind, a fool incapable of seeing the bigger picture.
She only notices his good qualities, never his flaws or reasons why heâs completely wrong for her.
She pulled Kuang Qingqing by the arm and said, âQingqing, on this point, I side with your fatherâŠâ
Before Xiao Fang could finish her sentence, Kuang Qingqing yanked her hand away forcefully and glared at her angrily. âWhen have you NOT sided with him? Back when he brought that vixen home, even my brother opposed it, but YOU were the one who persuaded him! You said it was an act of kindness and charity! You said that woman was pitiful!â
Xiao Fang staggered weakly.
Those words felt like a dagger plunging straight into her heartâa sharp dagger that twisted deep.
Back then, Chiang Qingzhu truly had the appearance of a fragile beauty. Her large eyes brimmed with panic and fear. Her thin, sharp face was practically skeletal, her body so emaciated it was just skin and bones. Her delicate, translucent skin showed the blood vessels beneath, and her body bore countless scars.
Faced with such a pitiable woman, what was wrong with feeling compassion? What was wrong with saying those words under those circumstances?
Later, though, when Chiang Qingzhuâs health had stabilized and sheâd regained some vitality, Xiao Fang had suggested sending her to a nursing home. But Kuang Kanzhi adamantly refused and even blurted out that Ah Zhu could never live without him. That was when Xiao Fang started to suspect something was amiss.
But by then, it was already too late.
Yes, she had made mistakes. But at the beginning, her intentions had been purely charitable.
Even Kuang Yunxian had advised her back then. But what good had that done?
âIn the end, you could marry a man like him, so why canât I marry such a good man like Wenwei?â Kuang Qingqing yelled as she pointed at Kuang Kanzhi, addressing Xiao Fang.
Kuang Kanzhiâs face darkened with rage, and Xiao Fangâs eyes were red with sorrow.
âFine!â Kuang Kanzhi was trembling with fury as he barked at her. âGo ahead and marry him! Youâve grown wings now; I canât control you anymore! But if you marry into the Lee family, donât expect a single cent from me!â
âI donât need it! Youâve already decided to give all your money to that vixen. Donât think I donât know! But heed my warningâif you try to cut me off, Iâll go out there and paste posters everywhere, telling the world youâre keeping a filthy mistress at home!â
âYou! Get out!â Kuang Kanzhi was so furious he felt his blood rush to his head. He grabbed a ceramic cup and hurled it toward her.
How dare she? Threaten him?
He was her father! And yet she had the audacity to threaten him with public humiliation!
Would she rather see him destroyed?
No matter what had happened before, heâd never laid a hand on Kuang Qingqing. This was the first time. So much so that she never even imagined he would do it. She didnât dodge, and the cup struck her squarely on the forehead, splitting the skin and drawing blood.
Everyone was stunned, Kuang Kanzhi included.
Xiao Fang was the first to react, rushing forward in desperation. âQingqing!â
Kuang Qingqing felt dizzy and disoriented, but none of that compared to the disbelief and crushing sadness in her heart. Blood trickled down, dripping into her eyes.
