Even he was so shocked by what was going on but was trying to maintain a sound mind. How could his sister attempt a murder?
”I know the consequences which I don’t care about. My only interest is to expose her in your presence. I wouldn’t dare accuse her of anything, after all, she is my mother,” Lanying said with a scornful gaze at Fu Juan.
Fu Juan on the other hand was so angry that she felt like running over and hitting Lanying in the face.
She couldn’t believe that she knew about a heavy secret like this and had to expose her in front of her family. Now how was she going to face them?
Meixu, FangSu, and Ling all saw Fu Juan’s facial expressions and body language and had different thoughts going on in their minds.
’Lanying must be lying!’
’Did Aunt really cause her husband’s accident?’
’What’s going on?’
Lanying felt glad about Fu Juan’s anger and continued, “I bet you now regret giving birth to me. Don’t forget the consequences of attempted murder, I can’t wait for you to face the law and atone for your sins. Now, I am satisfied and ready to be taken away.”
Lanying said the last sentence in so much bliss, seeing how Fu Juan was gritting her teeth.
There were tears at the corner of their eyes, but they hated each other so much right now to care about any other feelings and emotions.
Just like every other member of the family that was present, Fu Hua also did not find this funny instead, he grew angrier.
How could his daughter be used as a pawn, a chess piece, and a tool in the fight between that mother and daughter?
Fu Hua was so furious that he glared at Fu Juan while ordering the soldiers to take Lanying away. He was thinking of how to deal with his Aunt, because she news Genesis of the whole mess, and the reason Lanying took that step.
The soldiers had already dragged Lanying and were ready to tee another step when they heard the old authoritative voice stopping them from their action.
”Wait!” Grandfather Fu said as he tried to get up by himself but almost fell back. But thankfully, Butler Li who has been standing at his side all this time assisted him to stand properly.
The old man was too shocked by the whole unfolding secrets of his daughter that he immediately became ill.
Seeing Grandfather Fu asking the soldiers to wait, away, everyone thought he was trying to stop them from dragging Lanying, and at the same time trying to plead with Fu Hua to let her go since she was his granddaughter and a part of the family.
Even Fu Hua was so angry and almost disappointed in his grandfather, but he didn’t say anything and waited to hear his next words.
To the surprise of everyone, the old man pointed at Fu Juan and asked them to take her away.
”Take her along.”
’What?!’
’Grandfather is punishing Aunt with the military rule?’
Fu Juan was almost losing her mind, her father just asked for the soldiers to drag her away, how could he treat her like that?!
”Father, please don’t do this, I had no hand in Aiguo’s accident!” Fu Juan pleaded as she crawled to him, but Butler Li blocked her path.
Lanying laughed at her mother’s state. She really found it ridiculous that she would try to deny her crimes.
Even her mother’s fate could be easily sealed that way.
”Whether you are innocent or not, we will find out later. For now, you will be at the barracks receiving punishment for that girl’s existence. If after the investigations of Aiguo’s accident and it is found out that you had a hand in it, get ready to spend equal jail time there.” Grandfather Fu said with a stern gaze.
The old man wasn’t saying that she would have aborted Lanying, but he was blaming her for getting pregnant in the first place, giving up the child for adoption, and going back later to adopt her again without letting anyone from the family know, and then she had the guts to lie to them.
The old man was going to make sure that she paid for all her crimes since she had that kind of heart.
Geming couldn’t help being a little worried as he asked, “Father, why don’t you give her only today? Remember that she has to sign the divorce papers with Aiguo tomorrow.”
In essence, Fu Geming was saying that grace of one day should be given to her, for her to formally divorce Aiguo before she would be taken into custody by the soldiers.
”All paperwork will be brought to her at the barracks.” Grandfather replied before shifting a weak gaze to Fu Lei. “Lei, I’m handing Aiguo’s accident investigation over to you, remember to be righteous and show no mercy.”
Fu Lei saluted him. Actually, there news no need for that reminder because as a soldier, he couldn’t help but follow protocols and do what was right.
Shifting his gaze back to Fu Geming, Grandfather Fu said to him, “You will handle all the paperwork and the divorce. I need a long rest, call my doctor over.”
Immediately after saying that, the old man leaned his weight on Butler Li who called out to him in panic.
”Master!”
”Grandfather!”
”Father!”
Everyone was worried about the old man’s health, including Fu Juan who had no escape route.
Grandfather Fu waved his hand, gesturing to them to leave him alone, before relying on Butler Li to send him back to his bedroom.
Quickly, Fu Hua took out his phone to make a call to his Grandfather’s doctor, asking him to come immediately.
Fu Juan was almost dying inside after seeing what was going on. She couldn’t retrace her step, could she?
Before she could behind pleading again, Fu Lei gestured to the soldiers to drag her away, despite her screams and pleadings.
And just like that, Fu Juan and her daughter Lanying were taken away by the soldiers’ Fu Hua brought with him.
