Chapter 25 It’s Okay If Gu Nancheng Didn’t Wake up
“No way! How could you be so soft-hearted, my dear sister, and agree to his request? Just fight him in court. You don’t have to worry about me!” Fang Tong was very angry when she found out that Fang Xin had settled with that b*astard Qin Jianmin.
Fang Xin comforted her sister over the phone, “Actually, this is already much better than what I expected. Moreover, Qin Jianmin is such a scoundrel. If I force him into a corner, who knows what crazy things he will do? We are two women. If we can avoid offending people, we should do so.”
“Alright then!” Fang Tong reluctantly accepted her sister’s explanation. “By the way, are you on the way home? Mom asked me to ask you what you’d like to have for dinner tonight. We want to celebrate with you tonight.”
Fang Xin was silent for a moment before she replied softly, “Tong, please thank Auntie for her kindness. Tonight… I would like to be alone for a bit.”
Fang Xin didn’t want to celebrate the end of her marriage, nor did she want others to see her misery.
Fang Tong understood how her sister felt and agreed, “Then please be safe on your own. If you need to talk, I’ll be there.”
“Okay!”
After hanging up, Fang Tong looked at Gu Nancheng who was lying beside her and let out a light sigh. “My sister must be very sad now. Although Qin Jianmin is a scumbag, when he pursued my sister back then, he would pick her up and drive her around every day. He would also woo her in the snow, light fireworks at the mountaintop, and even went to learn how to cook from a chef. He cut his fingers so badly that they were covered in scars. All for the sake of making tofu pudding for my sister.”
“At that time, who would have thought that such a man, who loved his wife so wholeheartedly, would cheat on her and commit domestic violence after only a few years of marriage!”
Fang Tong thought about herself as she spoke emotionally. She couldn’t help but smile wryly. “When we were young, we only saw the good in the other person. We are deeply moved even when the other person offers to warm our hands. We are willing to go against the whole world for him. However, when it comes to life-and-death matters, all the feelings and love would be for naught.”
“You’re better.”
Fang Tong lay down beside Gu Nancheng and helplessly touched his handsome face. It felt pretty good.
“Although you can’t move or talk, at least you won’t cheat on me or bully me. Grandfather and mother-in-law are very nice to me, giving me money or resources as I needed. There’s no conflict between husband and wife, and no conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. This was a model for a happy and wonderful life these days.”
Fang Tong became got more enthusiastic as she spoke, laughing out loud. “Gu Nancheng, why don’t you not wake up? I suddenly feel that I enjoy many benefits if you don’t wake up.”
After enjoying herself for a while, Fang Tong collected herself from her joking mood and said to Gu Nancheng with a serious expression, “Forget it, forget it. I was just joking. Don’t believe my words. Mother-in-law and grandfather are still counting on you! You must wake up as soon as possible, understand?”
Speaking of mother-in-law, Fang Tong remembered that she was still waiting for her reply. She dressed quickly and went downstairs to tell her that she didn’t need to prepare dinner for Fang Xin.
When she arrived downstairs, Fang Tong didn’t see Bai Ping. Instead, she saw Gu Ting sitting in the living room and seated beside him…
Fang Tong was stunned. It was him. Why was he here?
Gu Ting’s eyes lit up when he saw Fang Tong.
Fang Tong didn’t wear any makeup today, but her small face was flushed red. Her long, straight and fair legs were wrapped under a swaying loose skirt. It was simply…
“Sister-in-law is at home! I was wondering why I didn’t see you today!” Gu Ting greeted her with lecherous eyes.
