Fang Zimo felt his heart drop, he knew it.? He might be the favourite among her pets but she will never waste her breath or energy in saving him. However, his heart still bled, really? He gave his Virginity, his body and even did shady deals for her. He was the one who managed that club of hers, but for the sake of not taking any trouble. She abandoned him without any thoughts.
He clenched his teeth, swallowing the filthy taste of rotten rag in his mouth. But he didn't care, he couldn't care - he was going to die anyway.? When the momo picked him up and dragged him out of the courtyard he didn't even say a word, nor did he struggle. He let her manhandle him and when she threw him inside a woodshed, Fang Zimo simply let himself fall.
His back hurt when he landed but he didn't utter a sound.
The momo looked at him lying and spat at him " just a peasant wanting to become a prince! Pei!"
She slammed the door behind her and left, leaving Fang Zimo alone. She even asked a servant to stand outside the woodshed and keep an eye on him, telling him to teach Fang Zimo a good lesson in case he made any noise.
But her warning was useless, Fang Zimo didn't move nor did he make any noise. He didn't even shed a tear, he has accepted his fate.
After the farce was over, Luo Xin went back inside her room. The second she stepped inside her cordial and gentle smile vanished, and her face morphed to that of fury. She threw her robe on the floor and kicked her shoes away, gone! Another one gone! It was so hard for her to tame Fang Chi, making him a perfect dog for her..but now he was gone too!
She was so angry that she threw the tea set on her table down on the floor breaking it into millions of pieces. That brat! He must have wanted to escape her that's why he did that but was he really that naive to think that just because he tried to attack Ye Ci's daughter, he will be able to escape her by marrying that bitch's daughter? It didn't seem like Fang Zimo would do something like this but then again she was the one who pushed him too far yesterday.
Why? Why did he want to leave? Didn't she treat him really good? He got all the luxuries and what else did he want? Good food, good clothes, good commodities, what else could he want? Luo Xin who was so warped in her head could never understand that Fang Zimo wanted his freedom more than he wanted her luxuries.
Luo Xin couldn't understand she only understood one thing and that was - she needed to replace her broken toy.
" get up" the momo who left Fang Zimo in the shed returned and picked him by his hair like he was a doll " don't you like throwing yourself in others beds? Second madam have found an excellent place for you, the brothel on the west district is a great place for the likes of you - you can enjoy getting fucked by both men and women there if you are lucky maybe your favourite mistress might visit you too"
Visit him? Hah. He was now an abandoned pawn,? he would be replaced but will never return here.
As for being sold to a brothel, what can he do? Nothing.
So, Fang Zimo didn't fuss throughout the process of being dragged to the back door like a wretched dog. He let the momo treat him however she liked, and even when she threw him right in front of the feet of his new buyer, he didn't fight.
Let it go, let it go - he can never win anyway. Fang Zimo didn't know what happened next, his eyes were covered with a black blindfold and with his hands and legs tied he was as good as a useless piece of log.
The carriage moved, jostling around and Fang Zimo could hear the sounds coming from the streets. Happy laughter, kids shouting in glee, the hawkers selling their sweets- hah, only once...just once he wanted to taste those sweets. He had all the luxury in the world, tasted every single dessert but all he wanted was to stand on the street, free and unbridle and eat a candied apple.
But now he will never get the chance.
While he was lying in the carriage a faint memory resurfaced in his mind.
' Zimo, here eat this I stole it from the kitchen, remember to eat it and don't keep it for long it will go stale' a young boy, eyes filled with hope and light, handed him a flaky pastry.
' brother Yan, you don't have' he had said as he tried to return that pastry. But the latter didn't take it back instead he shoved it in his mouth back then, with a doting smile ' why are you standing on ceremony with me? You are just like my little brother, I can't see my brothers right now... But I can still treat you well, after all, you are just like a younger brother to me'
The young boy was kind and full of positivity. Until he destroyed it. They were so good, Lin Yan was so good to him - then why, why didn't he save him? Why did he push him in that pit?
Ah yes because he naively wanted to return to his family, a family that didn't even want him.f𝘳𝒆ℯ𝑤���𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷el. c𝗼m
If possible he wanted to apologise one last time to Lin Yan, for everything he did, he was a coward and a fool. He shouldn't have foolishly acted on his whims but it was too late.
The carriage stopped and Fang Zimo stiffened, through his blindfold, he could see the carriage open as light suddenly poured inside. The driver roughly dragged him and threw him out of the carriage, Fang Chi stumbled. His heart in mouth -
Now everything will end...
" Ah Chen be easy on him, you will hurt him" a familiar voice, a warm touch and the blindfold was removed from his eyes.
In front of him stood the one brother he always wanted to see, the one whom he hated for leaving him alone and the one whom he loved enough to escape from his hands back in the alley.
" done throwing a tantrum you brat?" said Lin Yan.
