"I didn't blackmail her. She was afraid that I would talk nonsense, so she paid me to keep my mouth shut."

Lu Jiangting snorted coldly, which made Fang Qing sure that Yang Guangzong had some leverage over her, otherwise she would not have been so generous to him.

"What secret?"

Yang Guangzong looked at Fang Qing and said with a smile, "You can't blame me. I didn't intend to tell you. I was planning to use this secret to get some money from you, but now I can't protect myself. I have to protect myself first."

Fang Qing looked ashen, but at the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She lowered her head and stopped talking, as if she had accepted her fate, and let Yang Guangzong tell Lu Jiangting the secret that she had worked so hard to hide for several months.

Yang Guangzong said that Fang Qing's belly was so big, it must be more than five months. Lu Jiangting didn't react at first, and even sighed that time passed so quickly, it was already more than five months.

Two seconds later, he suddenly came to his senses.

"More than five months."

"Yeah, look at how big her belly is, it doesn't look like she's been pregnant for more than three months. Lu Jiangting, this is Fang Qing's secret."

The child was more than three months old, so Fang Qing persuaded him to stay in a hotel that night.

But more than five months is not right.

He calculated that it was more than five months ago, when Fang Qing was still in her hometown.

So Fang Qing is pregnant with a bastard?

Lu Jiangting clenched his fists and his whole body was shaking.

"Where did you get a bastard to try to pin it on my head?"

Fang Qing's tears were streaming down her face and she kept shaking her head.

Lu Jiangting grabbed her and asked, "Tell me, who is that mistress?"

Fang Qing continued crying and shaking her head.

Lu Jiangting shifted his cold gaze to Yang Guangzong who was tied to the chair.

Yang Guangzong's heart skipped a beat, wondering if Lu Jiangting thought it was him.

Yang Guangzong shook his head repeatedly, "It's not me, I have a wife, and my wife is much prettier than Fang Qing, that's why I look down on Fang Qing."

"Aren't you divorced?"

Yang Guangzong said quickly, "If this is really my child, I have to treat her well. How can I threaten her every day? What good will it do me to expose her, don't you think?"

That's true.

Lu Jiangting asked Fang Qing: "Whose bastard is this?"

Fang Qing, who was already in tears, burst into tears, "I don't know, I was raped in my hometown during the Chinese New Year."

What?

Fang Qing hugged Lu Jiangting's thighs and said tearfully, "I told you a long time ago that as a widow with a child, the bachelors around me who couldn't find a wife would look at me with eyes that wished they could eat me. I told you a long time ago, didn't I?"

Lu Jiangting's mind was completely confused.

Fang Qing continued, "When you asked me to bring Chenchen to you, weren't you worried that I would be harassed by some hooligans?"

"Jiang Ting, do you still remember my hair salon? I was harassed by hooligans, and I refused, so they smashed my shop and made it impossible for me to run it. I have no family, no backing, and since Jianjun left, anyone can bully me."

"I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken Chenchen back to that cannibalistic place out of spite of you. If I hadn't gone back, I wouldn't have been raped, and I wouldn't have gotten pregnant with this bastard and lived in fear all day long..."

She sat on the ground, crying and patting her stomach desperately.

"This bastard, I will beat this bastard to death..."

It was hard to tell whether Fang Qing's performance was real or fake, but Yang Guangzong was stunned.

He secretly looked at Lu Jiangting's expression, wanting to know whether he believed it or not.

Lu Jiangting was also confused for a moment.

He knew that there was always trouble around a widow.

Fang Qing had mentioned to him more than once before that someone was harassing her.

The old women downstairs introduced her to potential partners, but in fact, they were all old scoundrels who couldn't find a wife and came for her house and the subsidy from her and her daughter.

She didn't want to, but some bold old hooligans wanted to make it a fait accompli.

At that time, he thought that it was too dangerous for them, an orphan and a widow, to live in that kind of place, so he suggested that Fang Qing bring Chenchen to South City.

If they come here, the organization will not ignore their difficulties, and no gangsters will dare to harass them.

He knew all these things. If it were in the past, Lu Jiangting would have believed Fang Qing's words without hesitation.

But Fang Qing has been losing her credibility with him bit by bit over the past year, and her words are no longer credible in Lu Jiangting's eyes.

So...is what Fang Qing said true?

Lu Jiangting took a deep breath, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I dare not say it, I'm afraid..." She looked at Yang Guangzong.

Yang Guangzong got anxious after seeing her look, "Why are you looking at me, bitch? It's not me who made you pregnant."

Lu Jiangting, "You stay still, Fang Qing, come out with me."

This is their private matter and they don't want Yang Guangzong to hear it.

Yang Guangzong saw them leaving while he was still tied up, so he hurriedly shouted, "Hey, untie the rope for me first. Lu Jiangting, Lu Jiangting, fuck..." followed by a bunch of swear words.

However, Lu Jiangting ignored him and took Fang Qing to a hotel to book a room, using the twenty-fifty yuan.

Now the money has been confiscated by him.

"There are no outsiders here. Tell me what's going on."

Fang Qing cried and said, "It was just as I said. I took Chenchen back to my hometown for the New Year, and the old hooligans who harassed me before came again. That night, I went downstairs to throw away the garbage, and someone covered my mouth and dragged me into the alley. I don't know who it was."

Lu Jiangting clenched his fists, "You didn't report it to the police?"

"How can I report it? If this gets out, how can I live? How can Chenchen live? Once it gets out, Chenchen will never be able to hold his head up high. He lost his father when he was young, which is pitiful enough. You still want him to be laughed at at such a young age because his mother was... wuwuwu..."

Fang Qing covered her face and cried.

Lu Jiangting sat aside, head down and said nothing.

He now finally understood that he had no feelings for Fang Qing at all.

When he heard what happened to Fang Qing, he didn't even feel any shame or anger as if his wife had been bullied.

It was like some psychological burden was lifted and I felt relieved.

"Then why did you keep this child and try to get it on my head?"

This is what made him angry.

Fang Qing cried for a while, wiped her tears and said, "Originally I wanted to get rid of the child secretly, but unfortunately Sister Zhao saw me. She said that she had finally gotten pregnant and couldn't have an abortion just because we had a fight. I was afraid that she would tell you, so I never dared to do it."

"And then you came up with a brilliant idea and asked me to be the scapegoat?"

"This..." Fang Qing struggled, "I had no choice at the time. Jiang Ting, I don't want this to happen. I'm afraid. I'm afraid you'll think I'm dirty, and I'm afraid you'll drive me away. If I have nowhere to go, I'll have to go back to that cannibalistic place, and I might get raped again. I'm afraid."
