I have a wizarding world
#94 - past
Xia Yuxuan looked at the bald man kneeling on the ground and kowtowing incessantly, and remembered when her mother was lying in the hospital bed. To pay for her treatment, the family sold their house and moved into a dilapidated slum. They borrowed from all their relatives, and eventually, the relatives avoided them when they saw them.
She also remembered that this same bald man had lent her family 300,000 yuan, which saved her mother's life. But later, it was this same bald man who drove her father to suicide in order to collect the debt.
Tears streamed down Xia Yuxuan's face, as images of her mother dying in the hospital bed and her father's tragic death flashed through her mind.
She closed her eyes.
"Spare me! Yuxuan, spare me! Please, for the sake of the money I lent you to save your mom, let me go this time!" Lai San was somewhat delirious due to the stimulation of Fang Cheng's mental power.
"Leave," Xia Yuxuan said softly.
"Spare me! Spare me!" Lai San was still kowtowing, unable to hear Xia Yuxuan's words.
"Get lost!" Fang Cheng kicked him over, interrupting his kowtowing.
"I'll leave, I'll leave!" Lai San struggled to his feet and quickly handed the check to Xia Yuxuan, trembling.
Xia Yuxuan took the check and glanced at it. "You're right, this 1.92 million is what my family owed you." With that, she returned the 1.92 million to Lai San. "Now, my family owes you nothing anymore."
Lai San glanced at Fang Cheng beside him and noticed that Fang Cheng didn't seem to be stopping him. Trembling, he took the check with a complex expression.
"What are you looking at? Get lost!" Fang Cheng scolded, scaring Lai San into shrinking back.
"I'm leaving, I'm leaving." As he said this, he quickly led his group away in a panic.
Xia Yuxuan watched Lai San and his group leave, her gaze becoming blank. She woodenly tried to leave, but Fang Cheng grabbed her arm.
"Let me go," Xia Yuxuan said through tears. "I'm not clean."
Fang Cheng felt a pang in his heart and pulled her into his arms.
"Actually, I don't love you at all. I'm with you just for your money. Consider that 1.92 million as the money for you taking care of me for so long. Although it's a bit expensive, you're so rich, you probably don't care."
Fang Cheng remained silent, listening to Xia Yuxuan's quiet words.
"Fang Cheng, let me go," Xia Yuxuan said, trembling. She felt like she was having a mental breakdown because Fang Cheng had seen the scene she least wanted him to see, the most despicable side of herself. "Zhang Yun is the woman who suits you best. Only she is worthy of you, while I'm just… just a prostitute."
"Selling to me doesn't count as selling."
Hearing this, Xia Yuxuan smiled through her tears. "I used to think so too. I thought that if I could be with you, wouldn't that prove that I'm not a prostitute, just another kind of encounter?
But in the end, I can't do it. I can never hold my head up in front of you, even if I'm just your mistress, I don't feel confident. Actually, aren't you looking down on me in your heart? You don't have to deny it, I'm not stupid."
Xia Yuxuan looked at Fang Cheng's hesitant expression and smiled.
"It's good to say all this now. I don't have to hold onto unrealistic fantasies anymore. This is good."
Fang Cheng held her hand with one hand and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket with the other. He took out one, lit it, and took a deep breath. He couldn't deny what Xia Yuxuan said. In his heart, he did see her that way, as a mistress.
He had never really valued this woman, at most treating her as a tool to vent his desires. He would think of her when he needed her, and forget about her when he didn't.
The person he truly liked was still Zhang Yun. For example, even if he was suffering, he wouldn't take it out on Zhang Yun, but would look for Xia Yuxuan. For example, he was always so rough with Xia Yuxuan, never considering her feelings, and even disregarding her family.
When his mother asked him to go on a blind date, the first thing he thought of was using Xia Yuxuan as a substitute, not because Xia Yuxuan was so important to him, but just as he thought, she was just a substitute.
But just now, at the moment when Xia Yuxuan cried, he suddenly realized that Xia Yuxuan was also a person, a living person. She wasn't a tool, she had her own thoughts and feelings.
She fantasized about being with him, even if it was just as a mistress behind the scenes. She was a very traditional woman, hoping to be with him forever. But he didn't even give her that chance, not even a little bit of respect.
She was clearly his woman, but she was still a Level 1 employee in the company, doing the lowest-level work. Fang Cheng had never specifically told anyone, because he didn't value her. When he took her to the United States, he never thought about taking her to have fun, not because he didn't have time, but because he simply didn't see her.
If it were Zhang Yun? He thought, even if he had just flown back, he would still choose to take her to see houses, to amusement parks, to go shopping, just like other couples. But Fang Cheng rarely did these things with Xia Yuxuan.
In fact, other than taking her to buy clothes once, he had never accompanied her shopping, let alone anything else.
Fang Cheng was stunned as he watched Xia Yuxuan slowly pry open his right hand. Xia Yuxuan looked at Fang Cheng's dazed expression, and her tears flowed even more fiercely, crying like a rain-soaked person. This was her first love, first kiss, first night, almost all of her firsts, she had given to the man in front of her.
But in the end, she didn't get a shred of affection from Fang Cheng.
Just as she pried open Fang Cheng's right hand, Fang Cheng suddenly grabbed it. "You know I have a girlfriend. I don't want to lie to you and say I'll give her up to be with you. But, I don't want to give you up either.
I won't let you leave. If you're my woman for a day, you'll be my woman for life."
The newest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!
At this time, there was no one else in the alley, only the two of them standing there. The wind in the alley was howling, messing up Xia Yuxuan's long hair and making her shiver from the cold.
Fang Cheng took the opportunity to pull her into his arms, and the two stood there quietly, without saying a word.
In the end, Fang Cheng still didn't let Xia Yuxuan accompany him to meet his parents. Since he had admitted in his heart that she was his woman, then he would definitely give her enough respect.
At least, Xia Yuxuan would become a living person in his heart, no longer a tool to vent his desires. Even if she was a mistress, she was still a person.
Fang Cheng sat in the taxi, silently smoking a cigarette.
After a long time.
"Driver, turn around, go to Wenyuan Residential Area."
After instructing, Fang Cheng whispered to his phone, "Yunmeng, can you find out the relevant information about the two missing person cases in Wenyuan Residential Area?"
"Fang Cheng, besides some meaningless discussions online, there is no useful information."
Listening to Yunmeng's words, Fang Cheng guessed that the specific information had been blocked by the authorities and nodded.
"Lock onto that bald man, don't let him escape." A cold light flashed in Fang Cheng's eyes.
"Do you want to kill him?"
"No, the Beehive Biological Laboratory is still short of some materials."
