Fruit after fruit was hailing down on Ling Fangzhou.
With all his might, Lingyue was throwing. Though they were only fruits, when thrown with such force, they stung painfully upon impact.
As painful as his injuries were though, the agony inside his heart was so much greater.
His son… his and his wife’s only son… His eyes were fixed on him as if Ling Fangzhou was his most hated enemy.
He tried to open his mouth to say something, but no sound came out.
His head was in a whirl of confusion. When he regained consciousness, he had already fled the Gu Family’s home.
Vivid image after vivid image passed across his eyes, showing Lingyue, his eyes filled with hatred and anger. He then envisaged his wife’s hand clutching onto his, using her last breath to plead with him to take care of their son.
These scenes were playing alternately in his mind, causing bouts of excruciating pain to his head and heart.
He leaned on a tree, gasping for breath for a while, before he managed to suppress the feeling of throbbing pain in his chest.
Staggering to his car, he opened the door, got in and ignited the engine. He drove all the way back to his home.
As he entered the door, his two adorable children, joyfully ran towards him. One on each side, they hugged him tightly, cheerfully calling him “Daddy”.
He peered down at the two children. They were plump and rosy. His mind flashed back to Lingyue’s medical report, indicating severe malnutrition. He instinctively pushed his children away.
His children stared at him in surprise with wide, wide eyes.
Xie Wennan walked over, a soft smile gracing her lips. Her beautiful almond eyes looked at him tenderly, “What’s the matter? Is it because Xiao Yue refused to come home?”
Ling Fangzhou quietly looked at her.
Xie Wennan was very beautiful. She stood only 1.6 meters tall, was delicate, gentle and full of grace.
If he had not seen that medical report, Ling Fangzhou would never have believed that such a gentle and beautiful woman could harbor such malice in her heart.
His son is only eight years old!
The mother of his son had died rescuing him.
Despite him remitting hundreds of thousands of living expenses monthly, his son was still going hungry!
Fury surged in his heart, a rage that made him want to kill.
He clenched his fists, glaring at Xie Wennan as he questioned coldly, “Are you happy that Xiao Yue didn’t come back?”
Xie Wennan momentarily froze, and then spoke in a soft, teasing laughter, “What’s gotten into you? Why would you say that? Of course, I would love it if you could bring Xiao Yue back, then our family would be reunited! However, I’ve heard that Young Master Gu lives in the best villa in Jiang City, waited on by dozens of maids and bodyguards; he probably lives a life of much greater comfort than us. I’m afraid that the child might be blinded by luxury and unwilling to return.”
With every word she spoke, Ling Fangzhou felt colder. He regarded Xie Wennan with a strange stare as if he were looking at a stranger.
His wife, Lingyue’s biological mother, had died to save him.
That day, they were walking home along the sidewalk when an out-of-control bus came hurtling towards them.
His wife could have dodged it, but she had pushed him away to safety instead. And in doing so, she was hit and sent flying by the bus.
Before the ambulance arrived, his wife was already gone.
He could still recall, on the day of her departure, the thing she was most concerned about was her elderly mother and their young son.
With her hands stained in blood, she held onto his hands tightly, pleading with him to take good care of her mother and their son.
In great sorrow, he cried and nodded incessantly.
His beloved wife closed her eyes forever in his arms..
