Chapter 706: 190: Shocking Change_2
“Heh.” Shangguan Furong cried with a laugh, “Crying crocodile tears. The Zhao Family must be wishing me dead, so you could clear the way for that adulterous woman, right?”
These words carried a heavy burden of truth.
The expressions on Zhao Shen and Old Lady Zhao’s faces changed immediately.
“What exactly is going on?” Old Lady Shangguan looked at Old Lady Zhao and Zhao Shen.
Old Lady Zhao remained silent.
Shame was written all over Zhao Shen’s face.
How could they even begin to explain?
Right now, Shangguan Dehui had no interest in dealing with Zhao Shen and Old Lady Zhao. He was slowly moving towards the balcony, extending his hand towards Shangguan Furong, “Furong, don’t be afraid. Your brother is here. I’ll handle this for you. Even if the sky fell down now, I would hold it up for you! Will you give your hand to your brother, please?”
Shangguan Furong hastily retreated, “Brother, don’t come any closer! If you do, I’ll jump.”
“Alright, I’m not moving, don’t get agitated!” Shangguan Dehui halted his steps and tried to speak in a light tone, “Did Zhao Shen bully you? Tell your brother and I’ll stand up for you.”
Shangguan Furong’s face was streaked with tears, “Brother, I’m sorry. I don’t want to live anymore, living has no meaning…”
Shangguan Dehui dared not upset her further, continuing, “Furong, you are still young, your best days are still ahead. You still have me, and mother, and the two lovely children Zijun and Ziqing. How could life have no meaning? If there are any issues, come down first and let’s talk about it seriously. If you die, what about mother? Can you bear to let her suffer the heartbreak of burying her own child?”
“Anyway, every man must die, sooner or later it’s all the same. When I die, brother, remember to comfort mother. She shouldn’t have to grieve for an unfilial daughter like me.” At these words, Shangguan Furong looked up at Zhao Shen, “Zhao Shen, when I die, you’ll be free. Are you happy now? I have been married into the Zhao family for 19 years, thinking I had a loving mother-in-law, a husband who always put me first, and two smart and lovely children.”
At this point, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, “And in the end? In the end, I have nothing! I am just a fool who has been used by others!”
A daughter-in-law could be replaced.
A husband could remarry.
The children could have a new mother.
Her existence was negligible.
Looking back at these nineteen years, it was all like a puff of smoke that dissipated instantly.
Shangguan Furong continued, “I won’t take anything that doesn’t belong to me. But Zijun and Ziqing are my flesh and blood. I must take them with me. They will never be left to you and that adulterous woman!”
The children are hers!
She carried them for ten months in her womb…
Lin Fang is a wicked woman. If she leaves the children to her, they’d surely not have a good life.
It’s better to take them along. That way, they can be together in the afterlife.
It was then that Zhao Shen noticed the red wedding dress Shangguan Furong was wearing, the dress they wore on their wedding day nineteen years ago.
Nineteen years had passed, but the red dress was still brilliantly bright.
Now, everything had changed.
Just as Shangguan Furong had said, she did not take a single thing from the Zhao family.
It seemed she truly was determined to die and take the two children with her.
Thinking about this, Zhao Shen’s heart ached.
“No!” Zhao Shen pleaded, “Furong, I beg you. Zijun and Ziqing are still young, they are innocent, it’s me who failed you. Come down, we won’t divorce, we will live happily together from now on…”
“Get lost!” Shangguan Furong’s mood suddenly became explosive, “Zhao Shen! Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? Stop pretending in front of me! The children are mine! None of you can take them away from me!”
“Furong, don’t be rash.” Shangguan Dehui walked up to Zhao Shen, “Tell me everything from start to finish, from today onward, I won’t let you face this alone. If it’s truly the Zhao family who wronged you, I will tear their family apart to get you justice! The daughters of the Shangguan family, we would never let anyone take advantage of them!”
Hearing this, Zhao Shen felt a sudden dread.
All these days had passed, he had even forgotten that Shangguan Furong had the support of the Shangguan family.
When Shangguan Dehui was young, he was notorious for his recklessness.
The color drained from Old Lady Zhao’s face.
