Chapter 60: Cheating and Infidelity
Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Cheating and Infidelity
Fang Anning was drenched with cold water and spent a frozen night, and the next day, she caught a terrible cold.
Her nose ran and she wouldn’t stop sneezing, without even a tissue to use, only able to wipe it on her sleeve.
How many years had it been since she last resorted to something so disgusting?
She never thought that as an adult, she could still end up doing something this repulsive.
"Sir asked me to take you to have a bath and change into clean clothes."
Suddenly, the door opened, and Mrs. Chen walked in from outside. But she spoke with a stern face, lacking any of the previous warmth and kindness.
Fang Anning quickly nodded; she had been cold all night, feeling a chill even deep in her bones.
Now, all she wanted was to quickly take a hot shower, not able to think much about anything else.
Mrs. Chen led her to the guest room, and she hurried into the bathroom to turn on the tap.
The hot water came down, making her shiver intensely.
It took a while before she slowly got used to the heat, feeling comfortable both mentally and physically.
When she finished bathing and came out, she saw Mrs. Chen had brought a set of clean clothes and was waiting for her.
Fang Anning took the clothes and thanked her, then went back into the bathroom to get dressed.
When she came out again, she saw Mrs. Chen holding a cup of hot milk.
Fang Anning was so touched!
She quickly took it and drank it all in one gulp, and after finishing the milk, moved by emotion, she lunged towards Mrs. Chen, giving her a tight hug: "Mrs. Chen, thank you so much!"
Mrs. Chen quickly pushed her away, saying coldly, "Miss Fang, please show some decorum; you and I are not close."
"Mrs. Chen, what’s wrong? How are we not close? We have been together day and night for so long, we couldn’t possibly be closer."
"Hmph, Miss Fang really overestimates me. I’m just a servant, how could I be close with someone like Miss Fang?" Mrs. Chen snorted coldly.
Fang Anning frowned, looking at her puzzled.
Mrs. Chen, a person of honest and simple character, acting so strangely all of a sudden was indeed odd.
And thinking about the way Tingchen treated her yesterday, she felt something was very wrong.
So she quickly grabbed Mrs. Chen’s hand, and although Mrs. Chen shook her off, she still shamelessly grabbed it again.
"Mrs. Chen, stop being weird with me, please just tell me what happened? I remember soaking in the hot spring yesterday, how did I suddenly end up at the He family’s place? And to be treated like that by Tingchen, I don’t even know what happened. He even told me to think it over, but what am I supposed to think about?"
"What, Miss Fang, you’ve forgotten about yesterday?" Mrs. Chen asked angrily.
Fang Anning said sadly, "I really don’t know what happened, how could I remember?"
Mrs. Chen took a deep breath, her face stern as she spoke, "Since Miss Fang says she doesn’t remember, let me remind Miss Fang. You didn’t go to the hot springs alone yesterday! You were only kicked out by the old master, and the sir hasn’t even made a decision yet, and there you were, dalliance with others outside, isn’t that too hasty?"
Fang Anning: "..."
"I didn’t flirt with anyone, and I certainly didn’t cheat," she hurriedly explained.
"I heard it was sir catching you in the act of cheating, even Mrs. Liao saw it with her own eyes, do you still want to deny it?" Mrs. Chen looked at her unwilling to admit, becoming even more furious.
Fang Anning was dumbfounded!
She definitely did not cheat nor did she flirt with anyone.
But Mrs. Chen said that He Tingchen caught them in the act, and recalling He Tingchen’s ruthlessness towards her yesterday, she did not doubt the truthfulness of Mrs. Chen’s words.
But if what Mrs. Chen said was true, she felt extremely sleepy all of a sudden yesterday, and then lost consciousness. Could it be that Mu Yunxi had drugged her?
"Knock, knock, knock."
Someone was knocking on the door at this moment.
Mrs. Chen went to open the door, and He Tingchen’s bodyguard was there. He glanced at Fang Anning and whispered a few words to Mrs. Chen.
Mrs. Chen nodded, turned around, and said to Fang Anning, "The Sir wants you to come over."
Fang Anning immediately went out. She wanted to explain to He Tingchen that she did not cheat, nor was she involved in any affairs.
She strongly suspected that Mu Yunxi had deliberately sabotaged everything.
From the moment Mu Yunxi suddenly suggested they elope, she felt something was off and always suspected that Mu Yunxi had some ulterior motive.
"Mu Yunxi?"
Following the bodyguard, Fang Anning went downstairs to the basement and saw, to her surprise, that Mu Yunxi was tied to a chair.
Moreover, he was bruised and bloody, evidently beaten up, and still tied to the chair.
"Anning, are you alright, Anning? Don’t worry, no matter what, I will never abandon you. I would rather die than be apart from you." Mu Yunxi expressed his deep affection as soon as he saw Fang Anning.
He Tingchen sat on the opposite chair, his face grim and his brows tightly furrowed, his whole body seemed to be encased in ice, enough to freeze someone to death.
Fang Anning urgently said, "Mu Yunxi, shut up. Don’t talk as if we are deeply in love. I am not familiar with you. Yesterday’s hot spring was purely to repay your kindness."
After speaking, she urgently turned to explain to He Tingchen, "He Tingchen, listen to my explanation, there really is nothing between us. I admit he likes me, but I have absolutely no feelings for him."
"Really? What if I have someone kill him?" He Tingchen asked coldly.
Fang Anning was stunned for a moment, then said, "Go ahead, whatever, if he dares to frame me, he deserves to die."
"Anning, I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless." Mu Yunxi said sadly, but soon added, "Never mind, since I love you, even if I am abandoned and killed by you, I’m willing. At least, we have had beautiful times together."
Fang Anning clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, originally just suspecting, but now she was certain that Mu Yunxi was indeed trying to frame her.
She guessed that her extreme sleepiness was also abnormal and possibly, Mu Yunxi had drugged the water. Hence, she was unconscious and did not know even when she was brought from the hot spring to He’s house.
"You are as ruthless as her," He Tingchen muttered.
Fang Anning didn’t hear clearly what he said, and frowned, asking, "What did you say?"
Then she hurriedly added, "I really have nothing to do with this guy, you can beat him up, beat him to death, I wouldn’t feel sorry."
He Tingchen closed his eyes then opened them again, his eyes full of coldness.
Fang Anning was so frightened that she stepped back. She bit her lip, her heart pounding.
For some reason, she actually saw a murderous intent in He Tingchen’s eyes.
"Let’s go."
He Tingchen remained silent for a long time and eventually, without ordering them killed, stood up and coldly said one word, leaving the place with his bodyguard.
"Don’t leave, what about me? You have to believe me, I did not mess around, nor did I cheat," Fang Anning chased after him.
However, the bodyguard stopped her and shut the basement door, locking her and Mu Yunxi inside.
Fang Anning pounded on the door "bang, bang, bang," but no one paid attention.
Mu Yunxi, still tied to the chair, shouted, "Stop banging, can you untie me first? I’ve been tied up all night, it’s very uncomfortable."
