"Mengqing, how did you get in here?" Grandpa Xiao's pale face was slightly red because of surprise.
Fang Mengqing just looked at Grandpa Xiao quietly.
Grandpa Xiao noticed something was wrong, "Mengqing, what's wrong with you?"
Fang Mengqing slowly took off his hat and mask.
A haggard, thin, sickly and yellow face appeared in front of Grandpa Xiao.
Grandpa Xiao immediately felt distressed and said in disbelief, "How could you be like this?"
Fang Mengqing's eyes turned red, tears rolled out, and he choked and said, "Grandpa Xiao, I'm sorry, did I scare you?"
"What are you talking about? Grandpa Xiao just feels sorry for you. Come sit down and tell Grandpa Xiao what you've been through."
Fang Mengqing shook her head: "I won't sit down. I'll leave when the housekeeper comes back."
Grandpa Xiao was even more distressed: "You're not afraid now that you're here. Grandpa Xiao can't protect you?"
Fang Mengqing was moved and said: "Thank you, Grandpa Xiao, but I don't want to cause trouble for you."
Grandpa Xiao was anxious, so he didn't insist on the topic and asked: "Where have you been recently?"
Fang Mengqing sobbed for a while before saying: "Grandpa Xiao, do you believe me?"
"Of course I believe it. Grandpa Xiao knows that you hid because you were afraid of Beichen."
Fang Mengqing squatted down, held Grandpa Xiao's hand, and said with tears: "Only Grandpa Xiao is willing to believe me."
Grandpa Xiao wiped her tears with pain.
Fang Mengqing said: "These days, in order not to be found by Brother Beichen's people, I hid in the cave. I just ran out today to eat something..."
Grandpa Xiao stroked her head sadly and sighed.
Fang Mengqing said again: "I just found out that it was because I dragged down the entire Fang family..."
At this point, Fang Mengqing choked and couldn't speak.
"It was Grandpa Xiao who was useless and failed to protect the Fang family..." The old man's eyes were full of sorrow and self-blame.
Fang Mengqing shook his head: "Don't blame Grandpa Xiao, if you want to blame... you should blame Ye Chu."
Grandpa Xiao was silent.
Fang Mengqing looked into the old man's eyes and choked up: "Grandpa Xiao, I know that there is no chance for me and Brother Beichen anymore. The Fang family was destroyed by Brother Beichen, and I accept it."
After a pause, Fang Mengqing said: "But, I must tell you what kind of person Ye Chu is. I can't let Brother Beichen be deceived by her."
Grandpa Xiao was surprised.
Fang Mengqing said: "Brother Beichen thought that I pushed Ye Chu down the stairs, I can understand. But I have thought a lot these days, and I remembered that Brother Beichen came to me and told me that Ye Chu didn't say that I pushed him."
Grandpa Xiao was surprised and doubtful.
Fang Mengqing added, "I didn't want to tell the truth about that day, because I didn't want Grandpa Xiao and Brother Beichen to be sad. But, I've been thinking about it these days and I feel that I must tell it."
Fang Mengqing wiped away her tears again, "Because Ye Chu is too scheming and cruel. She is with Brother Beichen, and she might do something to Brother Beichen one day."
Grandpa Xiao heard the key point and his face sank, "Mengqing, what exactly did you hide for Ye Chu?"
Fang Mengqing's face was full of pain and struggle. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Grandpa Xiao promised me that I must not get excited."
"You say."
"Ye Chu fell down the stairs on purpose to frame me and to make me completely lose the opportunity to get engaged to Brother Beichen..."
"You, are you telling the truth?"
Mr. Xiao's face turned pale.
Fang Mengqing cried even harder, as if she hadn't seen anything. She nodded as if she had sworn, "I'm not lying."
Mr. Xiao's breathing suddenly slowed down, and then became short of breath.
Fang Mengqing still seemed not to have seen anything, wiping away tears and talking non-stop.
"It's okay that Ye Chu wronged me just to marry into the Xiao family, but she actually took advantage of and even killed my fetus. She is truly vicious and heartless."
"Now that the Fang family is gone, I don't want to live anymore. But Grandpa Xiao has loved me since I was a child, and I love Brother Beichen too. I really can't just stand by and watch."
"Grandpa Xiao, whether you think I have other intentions or not, I came here today to tell the truth."
"Nowadays, every corner of the imperial capital is filled with people sent by Brother Beichen to look for me. Today, I came to look for Grandpa Xiao, and I was almost discovered several times..."
Fang Mengqing finally stopped and looked at Grandpa Xiao steadily.
Grandpa Xiao breathed heavily, his face was ashen, and he said with difficulty: "Really, Ye Chu fell down the stairs by himself?"
Fang Mengqing was filled with grief, "Even Grandpa Xiao doesn't believe me anymore?"
Grandpa Xiao's face became even uglier, and he covered his chest tightly with his hands.
Fang Mengqing cried and said: "For Grandpa Xiao, for the happiness of Brother Beichen, I am willing to die to show my will!"
After saying that, Fang Mengqing turned around decisively and hit the wall without hesitation. With a muffled sound, blood flowed from her forehead.
She wanted to continue hitting, but Grandpa Xiao held his breath and stopped her in a cold voice: "Silly child, stop it!"
Fang Mengqing held her forehead which was bleeding, turned her head to look at the old man, and cried, "In order to make Grandpa Xiao believe me, I have no fear of death."
"I believe it." Grandpa Xiao's face turned red and white, and his breathing was so disordered that he could only squeeze out these two words.
Fang Mengqing stared at Grandpa Xiao's face, tears welling up in her eyes. She crawled in front of Grandpa Xiao and choked up, "Thank you, Grandpa Xiao... But, Grandpa Xiao, Beichen has been completely fascinated by Ye Chu. What if Beichen insists on marrying Ye Chu..."
"Even if I die, I will not allow Ye Chu to step into the Xiao family! Never, ever!"
Grandpa Xiao seemed to have used up all his strength to say so many words at once.
However, the next second...
"Puff——" Grandpa Xiao suddenly spat out blood!
Immediately afterwards, the old man was like a deflated ball, his body relaxed, his eyes rolled back and he fell on the wheelchair!
"Grandpa Xiao?...Grandpa Xiao?" Fang Mengqing's face was full of concern and anxiety. He carefully tugged at the old man's sleeve and then at his hand.
The old man didn't move for a long time.
Fang Mengqing held his breath and stretched out his hand to feel the old man's breath.
After more than ten seconds.
A twisted and sinister smile gradually emerged on Fang Mengqing's yellow face.
No breath.
Dead.
Fang Mengqing pulled a silent smile at the corner of his mouth, stood up coldly and ruthlessly, and stared at the old man's face.
"Pa!"
Fang Mengqing suddenly slapped the old man hard, and said bitterly: "You can't even protect the Fang family! I have been trying to please you since I was a child! You are much more useful dead than alive!"
Fang Mengqing stood up, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, and looked at the recording with a sinister smile.
Then, she quickly deleted the unwanted recording, leaving only the old man's last words - "
Even if I die, Ye Chu is not allowed to step into the Xiao family! Never, ever!"
Fang Mengqing listened, and the smile on her mouth became more twisted and crazy.
Ye Chu, I wonder if you can still marry Brother Beichen! Hahahaha——
Fang Mengqing laughed silently, then threw the phone on the ground, screaming and shouting: "Someone come! Master Xiao is in trouble!"
After shouting, she immediately hid and waited to escape in the chaos, while looking at the phone on the ground grimly.
Brother Beichen will definitely find out that it is her phone and will know that she has been here.
But this is not important.
What is important is that the recording was heard by Brother Beichen, and by the people who should hear it!
Now, she, Fang Mengqing, has nothing, and no one can have a good life!
Then let's destroy it together!
