“She was released from the old house and saw what happened between me and Sixteen.”
Fu Jincheng slowly parted his lips: "Back then, she already harbored murderous intentions towards Yao'er, treating Xu Qiao as Yao'er and telling herself that Yao'er couldn't defeat her."
"I instructed Jiang Ci to keep a close eye on her actions."
Fu Jincheng smiled: "Who knew that she would use someone else to do her dirty work? Unfortunately, no matter how vicious she is, she can't beat Yao'er and Mom."
Taking the opportunity, he complimented Qiao Yanzhi.
She glared at him, then sighed slowly as she thought about what had happened. "Perhaps because she's my daughter, and I've watched her grow up, I see her through a filter, naturally overlooking the bad things. Now that the filter is gone, I understand how vicious she really is."
Fu Ziyi asked, "Why has Second Brother never liked her?"
Fu Jincheng shook his head: "You're wrong. I did love her too. After all, she's the younger sister Mom brought home. What reason do I have not to cherish her?"
I loved you...
Everyone thought about it, but couldn't remember when he had ever shown affection for Fu Mengyao.
Fu Jincheng raised an eyebrow: "Do you still remember Xiangxiang?"
Qiao Yanzhi remembered it very clearly: "That Garfield cat."
Fu Ziyi then remembered that it was a gift her second brother gave her when Fu Mengyao was six years old.
“She really liked that cat and named it Xiangxiang. Before she was six years old, I didn’t treat her particularly well, but I did care about her.”
Qiao Yanzhi also remembered: "At that time, she really liked that cat. She even slept with it. I didn't allow it, so she made a fuss. After that, I just let her be. Not long after, Xiangxiang got sick and died."
Fu Jincheng's eyes turned icy, and he sneered, "Did it die of illness?"
People were reluctant to speculate maliciously because at that time, she was indeed just a child.
Fu Xiuchen asked somewhat uncertainly, "Isn't that right?"
Fu Jincheng revealed the truth about Xiangxiang's death.
At that time, Fu Mengyao had a congenital mental illness. Since she could remember, her heart was different from others. At first, she really liked Xiangxiang. She bought it delicious food and asked Libiesao to make it a small house.
Later, after Xiangxiang was born, every time they came to see her, they would pick up Xiangxiang first.
At that moment, he noticed Fu Mengyao's expression, which contained a ruthlessness that was not in line with her age. As if realizing that he had discovered her, her expression changed in an instant. She reached out to touch Xiangxiang, who was in his arms, and smiled innocently.
"Second brother, it's so well-behaved."
"Um."
At first, he thought he had misread it and didn't suspect anything. After sitting with her for a while, he put Xiangxiang down and left.
Later, Xiangxiang became a beloved pet in the hearts of these brothers, and they would visit her almost every day.
He was no exception.
Xiangxiang used to really like being close to Fu Mengyao, always walking around her feet and nuzzling her head against her.
That day, he found Xiangxiang hiding in a corner, unwilling to approach, and even when he tried to hug her, she ran away in fright.
There was still some of Xiangxiang's shed fur in the room, and he thought it was normal for animals to shed fur.
A few days later, Fu Mengyao ran out carrying Xiangxiang, whose fur was almost gone, and cried very sadly, saying that Xiangxiang was dead.
The elderly maid in the house said that Xiangxiang had a skin disease, which was discovered too late, so she died.
Therefore, Fu Mengyao blamed herself and cried every day, and would go to the small grave to see it in the middle of the night.
At first, he didn't suspect anything. Worried that it would be cold at night, he went to the woods to check on her, only to discover an unbelievable scene.
She actually dug up Xiangxiang's body, took a fruit knife, and cruelly skinned it.
Under the moonlight, the look in her eyes was both crazy and evil. It was unimaginable that it was the look of a six-year-old girl, just like the evil spirits seen in horror movies.
Combining what he had seen before, he understood that Xiangxiang did not die of illness, but was tortured to death by her. Even after death, she was not spared, and was still tormented at her grave.
After he finished speaking, his expression revealed a hint of hostility: "Doesn't this scene resemble her declaring her sovereignty at Xu Qiao's grave?"
Qiao Yanzhi felt a chill run down her spine: "She's been doing the same thing since she was a child, abusing cats as a kid, and now she's hurting people..."
Fu Jincheng: "When she was little, she thought Xiangxiang had taken away the affection that belonged to her. Now, she thinks that Yao'er has taken away her brother. It's not surprising that she would do something to hurt her."
Fu Xiuchen was unaware of the truth behind Xiangxiang's death, so he had never considered it. "In Blue City, when you learned about the elevator accident, your first reaction was that Fu Mengyao was responsible, and you judged it based on Xiangxiang's incident?"
“Intuition.” After saying that, he looked at Xiao Jinhan: “Think back, on the morning Xiangxiang died, Lao Si went to her bedroom. Did you hug Xiangxiang?”
"Um."
Although a long time has passed, I will not forget it, because Xiangxiang died that night, so the memory is still fresh.
"You held Xiangxiang, and she died that night. Later, Xu Qiao plotted against you. She did do something wrong, but Fu Mengyao ruined her face. Then there was Yao'er. You were injured and went to the hospital while trying to save her. Yao'er happened to be trapped in the elevator. All of this is too coincidental."
Finally, everyone understood why Fu Jincheng had always disliked Fu Mengyao: he had witnessed Xiangxiang's incident firsthand, and since it happened when he was a child, it must have left a shadow on his childhood.
If others had seen this, they would have been very hostile towards Fu Mengyao as well; it's not a matter of probability.
Qiao Yanzhi's face turned pale. Hearing all this, her heart was filled not with pain, but with anger. What Fu Mengyao had done was simply outrageous, and she only found out now. She took a deep breath and asked him, "Why didn't you tell me when we were little?"
"Mom, you know how bad my reputation was when I was a child. During that time, Fu Mengyao cried all the time. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought she was grieving over Xiangxiang's death. Would you believe someone like me who loves to lie?"
Qiao Yanzhi touched the tip of her nose.
Back then, her nickname "Poison Spider" was given to her by that brat, the second son.
Even if he had said it back then, she really wouldn't have believed him, and she might have even given him a beating.
Fu Jincheng pursed his lips and said, "This matter has been in my heart for many years. Knowing her character well, of course I don't believe her."
Qiao Yanzhi's voice softened: "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
I've seen through Fu Mengyao; she's so detestable, yet I've endured her for so many years.
Fu Jincheng didn't feel embarrassed at all, and smiled lazily: "What's worth celebrating now is that our good sister is back, which proves that my persistence all along was right. Mom, just say it was difficult, but at least give me some reward, right?"
Qiao Yanzhi's eyes flashed: "Shut up. Do you think this matter is over? Now, this is a completely different matter from you hiding your sister. Fourth brother, don't try to cover it up."
The four Fu brothers: "..."
It seems this matter won't be resolved easily.
