Chapter 1776: Could Not Be Touched by Cold Things
Bai Yiqiao felt both her mouth and throat were dry. She wanted to drink some water, but there was no one around. At that moment, she heard the sound of the door opening. Someone had come in.
Bai Yiqiao immediately adjusted the expression on her face, as if she was on the verge of breaking down. Tears gathered at the corner of her eyelids and slowly dripped down. Her appearance made people feel distressed.
Fang Yong walked in and saw Bai Yiqiao’s pitiful appearance.
“Fang Yong.” Bai Yiqiao said to Fang Yong hoarsely, “I’m so thirsty. Can you pour me a glass of water?”
Fang Yong pursed his lips and poured her a glass of water from the teapot on the table. Only, the water was already cold.
When Bai Yiqiao took a sip, her expression darkened. She had been a wife and had suffered through miscarriage as a concubine in her previous life. She naturally knew that those recovering from a miscarriage could not be touched by cold things.
But now, Fang Yong had poured her a glass of cold water. Bai Yiqiao felt that the lower half of her body was sticky. Upon lifting the blanket, she saw her skirt was wet with blood.
Her clothes still haven’t been changed?
Bai Yiqiao had a bad premonition in her heart. Based on Fang Yong’s temperament, he should definitely be caring to her. However, he was so indifferent and expressionless.
He must have believed Li Gouzi’s words. Bai Yiqiao moved her body, and nasty liquid seeped out from her lower half. The wet and warm liquid coated her thighs.
Bai Yiqiao’s face turned even paler. She reached out, pulled Fang Yong’s sleeves, and said, “Fang Yong, don’t be angry. I really didn’t betray you.”
Fang Yong gave a divorce slip to Bai Yiqiao. Her pupils trembled. After taking the divorce slip, she said emotionally, “Fang Yong, don’t be like this. You should believe me. You would rather believe Li Gouzi, that scoundrel, over me? I am your wife. You have to believe me!”
Seeing the divorce slip, Bai Yiqiao felt everything—reputation, husband, future glory, and wealth—was slipping away from her.
What was the point of her being born again?
Fang Yong was Bai Yiqiao’s biggest goal since her rebirth. She had worked hard to maintain their relationship as husband and wife. Not talking about the fact that Fang Yong would become prosperous in the future, just his personality was enough. He was a responsible man who cared for others. In the eyes of women, he was someone worthy of them entrusting their lives to.
Fang Yong said, “I killed the officials, and I will be chased by the court in the future. If you stay with me, you will be implicated. Let us separate like this, and you can pass your days peacefully.”
When Bai Yiqiao listened to Fang Yong’s words about killing the officials, she froze for a moment. She did not mind his act one bit and said, “I’m not afraid of hardship. Fang Yong, don’t leave me.”
She knew that Fang Yong would achieve success in the future. Killing the officials was nothing. He should be joining the rebel army now. Bai Yiqiao said to Fang Yong, “There’s some money in a box inside the closet. You should take it.”
When Fang Yong saw Bai Yiqiao acting like this, he felt a little helpless. He said, “I can’t tolerate betrayal.”
Fang Yong could tolerate everything, except her betraying him, not to mention what Bai Yiqiao did in private. Li Gouzi said that she had hired him to ruin someone else’s innocence.
Fang Yong couldn’t figure out why Bai Yiqiao had to be so vicious toward Chen Ermei. He knew that she was hostile to Chen Ermei, but how this hostility came about was very inexplicable.
Bai Yiqiao cried and said, “Fang Yong, I really didn’t betray you. You have to believe me.”
She could only say over and over again that Fang Yong should believe her.
Fang Yong rubbed his brows and said, “You should get some proper rest.”
“If you say it like that, then it means you believe me. Fang Yong, thank you.” Bai Yiqiao smiled through her tears, “What I want is to be happy with you for the rest of my life. How can I get involved with people like Li Gouzi?”
Fang Yong did not speak.
In the middle of the night, Fang Yong left the divorce slip on the table and took his mother away.
