The word "kill" was particularly sensitive to Chen Fang, but she didn't know what to say. She could only helplessly bury her face in her hands and say that she hadn't killed Qian Kai.
Just like now, upon seeing Qian Kai's parents, Chen Fang's first reaction was to cover his head and cry.
"It's not my fault..."
After Chen Fang quieted down, she glanced over and accurately caught Chen's sister-in-law's voice. The direct stimulation reminded her of something.
When Qian Kai's parents saw that Chen Fang didn't move, they went up to him, crying and accusing him.
“You bitch, if you didn’t kill him, who did? We’ve found evidence. When Qian Kai arrived, your sister-in-law had just brought you out of the house. Chen Fang, you can’t deny this. We’ve found witnesses.”
Recalling what happened back then, Qian Kai's parents shed bitter tears.
Their youngest son was gone, killed by his own daughter-in-law. Although they had grievances against Chen Fang, they never made things difficult for her.
But Chen Fang, how could she be so heartless? Not only did she lose Qian Kai, but she also abandoned Qian Kai's child.
Qian Kai's parents didn't believe Chen Fang at all when she said the baby was lost during childbirth. If it weren't for getting rid of the baby, why would Chen Fang run back to her parents' home to give birth? Weren't their conditions in the city good enough?
"Did I faint when I came out back then?"
Chen Fang didn't say anything, but calmly looked at the witness and asked for confirmation.
The nurse from back then is now about the same age as Chen Fang, and especially after learning what Chen Fang had done, she hates him intensely.
"yes."
Suppressing his nausea, the witness uttered those two words.
Chen Fang laughed, a laugh tinged with profound sorrow. Upon waking from his dream, Chen Fang realized his life was utterly miserable. He thought being ignored by Old Madam Chen was already tragic enough...
What's even more tragic is that she had been living a lie all along.
“Father, Mother, I fainted back then. How could I have killed Qian Kai? I didn’t kill Qian Kai. She killed him.”
When Chen Fang reached Qian Kai's parents, he was filled with extreme remorse.
As Qian Kai spoke, tears streamed down her face involuntarily. Her beloved's long-awaited injustice was finally about to be redressed.
"My dear sister-in-law, why are you running away? After witnessing you smother my lover to death back then, I was so emotionally distraught that I fainted, and that's when you brought me out!"
"How hateful! I misjudged people and hurt Qian Kai and myself. Now I finally understand why you married Chen Zheng in such a short time. It turns out you were afraid that I would remember and settle scores with you."
What,
Everyone was stunned, never expecting such a dramatic turn of events, especially Qian Kai's parents, who had always believed that Chen Fang was responsible for Qian Kai's death.
But according to Chen Fang, it was Chen's sister-in-law who harmed people, not Chen Fang.
If it's really as they say, and Chen Fang lost that part of his memory back then, then what happened afterward...
In an instant, everyone's eyes were fixed on Sister-in-law Chen.
"No, I didn't kill him. Chen Fang, you say it was me, what proof do you have?"
Evidence, yes, where is the evidence?
Instead of directly answering Qian Kai's parents' questions, Chen Fang brought up something they didn't know.
"Mom and Dad, do you know why Qian Kai was suddenly hospitalized back then?"
Watching Chen's sister-in-law's panic with a cold expression, Chen Fang felt like crying as he smiled. Looking back now, he realized that Chen's sister-in-law had deliberately provoked them back then.
The same goes for Old Mrs. Chen. Because Chen Zheng liked Sister-in-law Chen, and Sister-in-law Chen spoke of things that went in one ear and out the other, Chen Zheng believed them and went to tell Old Mrs. Chen.
What her precious son said was naturally true, and then Old Mrs. Chen would come and tell her.
On one side is her biological mother, on the other is her best friend.
With Qian Kai shielding her from all the storms of life, how could she possibly be a match for the two of them?
"Don't say it's not my fault, it's Qian Kai's fault, she was lustful."
The moment lust took hold, without Chen Fang needing to say much, Qian Kai's parents probably guessed what was going on.
They had witnessed how good Qian Kai was to Chen Fang, and they didn't believe he would have lust after Chen's sister-in-law.
“When I got back that year, I saw her rush out with her clothes disheveled. When I went into the house, I saw Qian Kai lying in a pool of blood. At that time, there was no evidence, and Qian Kai was in critical condition.”
“I thought I would wait until Qian Kai woke up before I could say anything, but on the eve of Qian Kai’s wake-up, I found out that I was pregnant. I wanted to tell Qian Kai the good news, but when I went into the ward, I saw that she was committing the crime.”
“Those who lived with us back then should have seen her disheveled appearance. Find a few to verify, and you'll know I'm not lying.”
After choking back tears as he finished speaking, Chen Fang was already in tears.
But she knew she had no right to ask for anything; it was all her fault, the fault she had made.
If it weren't for her, Qian Kai would still be alive and well.
"No, it wasn't me, I didn't kill him, and I didn't do it on purpose."
After offering a few excuses, Sister-in-law Chen stopped, and the next second, her eyes flashed with hatred.
"Yes, I did it. I did it all. I did what happened to Qian Kai, and I did what happened to your son. Chen Fang, I just can't stand you. You're not as good as me in any way, so why did you find such a good man?"
"And Qian Kai, how could he be so ungrateful? I clearly told him that I could hide outside and not ask him to separate from you, but he wouldn't even help me fulfill such a small wish. And Chen Zheng, do you know that I'm disgusted by the sight of you?"
"Who do you think you are? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had to take such a risk. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have harmed Qian Kai. It's all your fault, your and your mother's fault. If you hadn't drugged me, I wouldn't have driven myself to this point."
Sister-in-law Chen revealed quite a bit of information, but it was enough for everyone to understand what was going on.
It turns out that back then, Chen Zhengtai liked Chen Dasao, but worried that Chen Dasao, being a city girl, wouldn't look down on him, so he partnered with Chen Laotai.
By forcing Chen Zheng and his wife into a fait accompli, Chen's innocence was ruined, leaving her with only one option: to escape. How could Chen's wife possibly agree to that?
Even setting aside the fact that she had fallen for Qian Kai, given Chen Zheng's character, it was impossible for Sister-in-law Chen to ever be interested in her. She had no way out.
And that's how the scene Chen Fang witnessed happened. She pushed Qian Kai, she pushed him on purpose, but she didn't expect him to bump into the corner of the table.
If Qian Kai doesn't wake up, she can live peacefully. But if Qian Kai wakes up, that means something else entirely.
She married Chen Zheng for two reasons: first, to escape Chen Fang, and second, because she was pregnant with an illegitimate child.
When she heard that Qian Kai had woken up, she panicked. She wanted to go and see him, but the first thing Qian Kai asked when he woke up was where Chen Fang was and how he was.
Why should she suffer so much, forced to marry Chen Zheng, while Chen Fang gets such a wonderful man like Qian Kai?
His heart was clouded by jealousy, and because Chen Fang was Chen Zheng's sister, a seed of revenge began to grow.
The sinister hand slowly moved forward, covering the spot where Qian Kai was breathing.
With a thud, I turned around and saw Chen Fang collapsed by the door.
Having already solved one problem, solving another would definitely cause trouble, and besides, she didn't want to die. After thinking it over, Chen Fang became the best choice to take the blame for her.
