Chapter 171 Playing along
Chapter 171 Playing along
I was sunbathing in the courtyard, and Liu Liu was lying at my feet, having a wonderful time! It would be even better if Song Yafei hadn't bothered me.
I was squinting, enjoying the moment, when I suddenly felt a coolness in my hand. It was Song Yafei's hand coming closer.
I immediately withdrew my hand, looked up at her, and asked impatiently, "What is it?"
Song Yafei's eyes were filled with loneliness, but a faint smile still lingered on her lips. "I've found a professional rehabilitation doctor for you. I'd like to ask when you'd like to meet him."
Of course I want to heal my hand, and I naturally agree with that.
But it was Song Yafei who came, and I couldn't help but sarcastically say, "President Song is doing this to reduce her guilt, so naturally I won't take advantage of your good intentions."
Song Yafei's expression was rather unpleasant, but I didn't care. I even felt a little satisfied. She used to mock me like this, didn't she?
But she still agreed with a wry smile, "The chefs who make special nutritional supplements for you are all personally selected by me."
"There are a few others; they'll all be coming to your house soon to let you know, in case you're not comfortable,"
Has it really come to this?
This was completely unexpected.
If this had happened sooner, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out so badly.
I stared blankly at my injured right hand, wondering what I could do even if it recovered.
The career I wanted is gone forever, and my life is gone too. What meaning does it all have?
Perhaps sensing my sadness, Song Yafei, disregarding my objections, grabbed my hand and said, "Don't worry, I will do everything I can to cure you!"
"Whether it's your hand or your illness," she said with such determination that I almost believed her.
I had no hope for either my hand or my illness.
Just then, Aunt Lin suddenly came over and said hesitantly, "Sir, Madam, Mr. Yu has arrived." The hard-won atmosphere was instantly ruined.
Mr. Yu?
Yu Chengliang?
Among the people I know, this is the only one. I didn't expect him to be out. Is this another masterpiece by Song Yafei?
I turned and glared at Song Yafei. Although I knew she would save him, I didn't expect it to be so fast. She really went all out!
Song Yafei glared at Aunt Lin reproachfully, then looked at me with a guilty expression, "I..."
She tried to explain, but I turned my head away, not wanting to listen. "What's he doing here?"
Receiving Song Yafei's gaze, Aunt Lin felt a little scared and hesitant. It was only after Song Yafei spoke that Aunt Lin finally spoke.
"Mr. Yu knelt at the door, insisting on seeing his wife before he would leave."
Upon hearing this, Song Yafei frowned, remaining silent, her expression showing some difficulty and refusal.
I couldn't help but chuckle, unable to suppress my sarcasm. "President Song should still meet him, lest he get hurt kneeling on his knees."
My deliberate sarcasm didn't change Song Yafei's mind. "Let him go!"
Aunt Lin was in a difficult position, having probably said everything she needed to say.
“We can’t get rid of him! He said that if he can’t see the madam, he’d rather kneel at the door until he dies than leave.”
That's really determination!
Right now, I'm curious to see how Song Yafei will handle this, so I quietly watch her.
Song Yafei's brows furrowed with worry.
Adding fuel to the fire at the opportune moment, he said, "You should go and take a look. This place might attract reporters, and it could damage your reputation."
As long as her or the group's reputation is mentioned, Song Yafei won't ignore it.
That's exactly the case now. Hearing me say that, she didn't refuse anymore.
Unexpectedly, she wasn't in a hurry at all. Instead of going out to meet the person, she had someone bring the person in.
Before Yu Chengliang arrived, Aunt Lin served us some tea and snacks. As Yu Chengliang knelt before us, I was drinking tea, eating snacks, and waiting to watch the show.
Yu Chengliang's face was pale, and traces of makeup were clearly visible on his face.
When I saw him again, I felt a sharp pain all over my body, and the car accident from that day came flooding back to me.
His hand gripping the teacup tightened involuntarily, his body trembled slightly, and he barely managed to suppress it by clenching his teeth.
Yu Chengliang stepped forward and knelt down in front of Song Yafei, his face wet with tears.
"Sister Ya, I'm leaving tomorrow. For the sake of our past relationship, could you come and see me off?"
He was talking with snot and tears streaming down his face, completely disregarding his image.
Those who know Yu Chengliang know that he is a good actor, and it is very likely that he is acting to gain sympathy again.
Otherwise, if the illness were truly severe, would they still be able to come here?
I can't leave now, so I have no choice but to stay and watch the show.
Unexpectedly, Song Yafei refused very firmly this time. "Are you trying to play the emotional card again this time?"
Yu Chengliang was stunned for a moment, probably not expecting Song Yafei to be so blunt, and shook his head.
"Sister Ya, I...I didn't, I just can't bear to part with you!"
Song Yafei sneered, "Yu Chengliang, I've told you many times, don't say things that could mislead my husband."
Yu Chengliang then looked as if he had just noticed me, his expression changed, and he immediately tried to bow his head to me.
"Brother Zhang..."
"Stop!"
I can accept his kneeling and his apology, but I will not accept his rebuttal.
"I will not accept anything you say. The reason you are here today is because others have the ability, and there is nothing I can do about it."
"But I will never accept your insincere apology. Stop putting on airs in front of me."
Yu Chengliang was speechless and instinctively looked at Song Yafei for help.
Song Yafei, unusually, sided with me, saying, "You're right, this is my final repayment to you."
Yu Chengliang found it hard to believe, and even more so, refused to accept it.
"Impossible! Sister Ya, you can fool others, but can you fool yourself? During that time, you and I..."
"It's just an act!"
Song Yafei interrupted him before he could finish speaking, her eyes filled with ruthlessness and her words utterly heartless.
"You seem to have forgotten why you came into my life, and why you've stayed by my side all this time. We all know the truth, so let's stop pretending to be so affectionate."
Was she really just putting on an act?
Or is she just this heartless to everyone?
I don't sympathize with Yu Chengliang, but I understand Song Yafei less and less.
Song Yafei continued to tell Yu Chengliang, "I have never had romantic feelings for you. I have always loved Zhang Tian. There can only be friends between us."
"I don't believe it! The past is clear, what part of it is false?"
"It's all fake!"
Song Yafei remained unmoved. "From the moment you appeared with a purpose, everything was destined to be fake."
"You're nothing more than a pastime when I'm lonely, and a tool to test Zhang Tian. Do you understand? In my life, I will only ever have Zhang Tian as my husband."
Finally, Yu Chengliang could no longer maintain his composure and collapsed to the ground, laughing and crying at the same time.
But none of this could win back Song Yafei, nor could it make her even glance at him.
Song Yafei remained unmoved and coldly called Assistant Luo, ordering him to take the person away.
