Fang Bingwen looked at Ye Qiu with trembling heart, but seeing her indifferent, even uninterested, he knew he was done for; no matter how he explained, he couldn’t clear things up.

So he turned his gaze to the culprit, Song Qing. If it weren’t for her, how would Ye Qiu have seen him in such a disgraceful situation? If it weren’t for her, how would Ye Qiu and Ye Qiu’s family misunderstand?

Song Qing was equally bewildered at this moment. She really just intended to give Fang Bingwen a scare, not expecting to actually meet Ye Qiu. Who knew Ye Qiu would move so early?

Without even looking, she knew Fang Bingwen was very angry at this moment, possibly wishing she would vanish on the spot. Yet amidst her fear, she was equally excited. Now that Ye Qiu and Ye Qiu’s family witnessed this scene, she didn’t believe Ye Qiu would return to Fang Bingwen’s side. So this way, she had even more opportunity, right? She also didn’t fear Fang Bingwen denying his actions.

"Dad, Mom, what are you doing here?" Fang Xu’s appearance broke the stillness at the scene; the Ye Family continued bustling with moving tasks, paying no mind to this family.

Fang Bingwen prudently didn’t approach, glaring fiercely at Song Qing before going back to change clothes.

Song Qing suppressed her fear, took a deep breath, and touched Fang Xu’s head with a light laugh: "Will it be okay if Mom moves here to stay with Xiao Xu from now on?"

Fang Xu looked down, pressed his lips together, and spoke softly: "Didn’t Dad and Mom divorce?"

"Silly child, you can still remarry after divorce. In the past, Mom ignored you and Dad, but that won’t happen anymore. Give Mom a chance, will you?"

Fang Xu looked up at her, still holding hope in his eyes: "Mom isn’t lying to me this time, is she?"

Song Qing bent down to meet his gaze: "This time, I really won’t."

But Fang Xu hesitated, looking toward Ye Qiu’s direction: "What about Aunt Ye?"

"It’s Mom’s fault, causing Aunt Ye to misunderstand your dad. She probably won’t ever return to your dad’s side. Let Mom make amends from now on, okay?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Fang Xu didn’t speak again, because his own heart was struggling. He was older now, aware of how good Ye Qiu once was to him, and how his birth mom had abandoned him.

But while reason was present, so were emotions. After all, she was his birth mom; that blood bond couldn’t be severed. He knew it was unfair to Ye Qiu, but he also hoped his birth mom had truly changed, willing to come back to him and Dad’s side.

So to avoid Song Qing’s questioning, he slowly nodded. He told himself, the very last time, really just the last time!

Song Qing smiled triumphantly, looking at the villa ahead, determined to succeed. Now her son forgave her, Ye Qiu moved out, and she held Fang Bingwen’s leverage; she absolutely wouldn’t lose.

"Xiaoqiu, listen to my explanation, will you? It really was an accident just now, don’t misunderstand." Fang Bingwen hurriedly changed his clothes and came out, anxiously explaining.

But before he could get close, Ye Sheng blocked him. Second Brother Ye sneered, saying: "Hey, great lover, our little sister doesn’t buy your act anymore. Do us a favor and keep your distance; you haven’t even washed off the smell yet, quite disgusting."

Hearing this, Fang Bingwen’s emotions momentarily collapsed. He didn’t understand why the world had to be so cruel, why things were so coincidental. This way, Ye Qiu really couldn’t forgive him anymore, right?

He nearly begged as he looked at Ye Sheng: "Second Brother..."

He was interrupted before finishing the sentence: "Don’t call me that, I’m not your second brother. Do us a favor and stay away, our little sister was really unlucky to meet someone like you. Good thing she saw through your true colors in time."

Seeing his face full of disdain, Fang Bingwen turned to look at Fan Ning: "Second Sister-in-law, where is Xiaoqiu moving to? Can you tell me?"

Although Fan Ning didn’t show her emotions on her face like her husband, the cold light in her eyes was still palpable, especially when using gentle language to speak heart-chilling words, leaving Fang Bingwen bewildered.

"Mr. Fang, though our Xiaoqiu once shared a connection with you, that’s all in the past. Now our Xiaoqiu has figured things out and hopes you will too. Sometimes fate is like that; once lost, it’s worlds apart. Your connection with our Xiaoqiu has ended, so don’t bother with pointless things anymore. Of course, you’re free to do whatever you want and don’t need to explain to us."

"Second Sister-in-law..."

Fan Ning’s gaze turned colder: "Mr. Fang, please be respectful. It’s no longer appropriate to call me that."

Ye Tan had a straightforward character, not wanting to drag things out, frowned and said: "Why bother saying too much to him? Most of the packing is done, the rest Mrs. Liu can handle. Let’s go."

"Xiaoqiu, give me a chance, just one chance." Fang Bingwen spoke heartbreakingly, before him was Ye Qiu’s family, behind him was Fang Xu holding Song Qing’s hand, waiting for him.

Ye Qiu stopped and glanced behind him, then smiled enigmatically: "It’s not you who should hope for a chance, it should be Song Qing. Fang Bingwen, you make me sick, all your heart-showing before me yet turn around and get involved with Song Qing, before and even now. Do you think I’d fall for it again?"

"I didn’t, I know it was my fault before, I will change."

"Change?" Ye Qiu mocked with a laugh, "Dare you say you didn’t have relations with Song Qing yesterday?"

"I..." Fang Bingwen was speechless, unable to speak.

Ye Qiu shook her head: "I really misjudged you, once thinking you were knowledgeable and virtuous, seems you were pretending. Can you tell me how you manage juggling with Song Qing while pouring your heart out to me? Perhaps you’re not teaching biology, but acting instead!"

"Pfft!" Ye Tan and Ye Sheng couldn’t help but burst out laughing, pity they worried briefly just now; now it seemed their little sister was indeed their little sister, just as she once annoyed them, annoyed outsiders now.

But listening, Fang Bingwen felt as if he’d fallen into an abyss, his whole being dull, seemingly out of spirit.

"Here’s a piece of advice: if your heart’s still with Song Qing, don’t keep coming after me indecisively. Do you really like me? I don’t believe it. Probably, you only like my devotion to you!" Ye Qiu said this without turning back and left.

Yet Fang Bingwen, in a trance, thought his actions over these days would at least have some effect, didn’t expect Ye Qiu to think of him this way.

But on reflection, during their marriage, it seemed Ye Qiu was always the one sacrificing, and he not only didn’t respond but kept disdaining, so it’s understandable she felt this way!
