Shen Xing didn't answer, but instead asked, "Does Lu Chen know that you went out to see your ex-fiancé alone?"
"It doesn't matter whether he knows or not." She took a sip of water with an elegant demeanor, her face revealing no other emotion. She seemed completely unconcerned that Lu Chen might misunderstand if he found out.
But Feng Guang was really unsure. Lu Chen looked gentle and considerate, but deep down he was a very insecure person. From the days she spent with Lu Chen, Feng Guang could tell that if Lu Chen knew that she had come out to see Shen Xing, he would definitely show that humble and pitiful look again.
Therefore, she wouldn't let Lu Chen know about this. Of course, she was also certain that she only liked Lu Chen right now, and had absolutely no interest in Shen Xing.
Feng Guang's expression was easy to guess. Shen Xing was good at reading people, and he saw through Feng Guang's uncertainty, but he didn't say anything. He said calmly, "I admit that what I did back then was not kind."
"Are you saying that you were having an affair with my sister while we were engaged?" Feng Guang smiled, his eyes narrowed, a smile tinged with unspeakable sarcasm.
Shen Xing's expression remained unchanged. "You don't need to try to mock me. Over the years, I've gotten used to being ridiculed."
"Oh ho, you mean your skin has gotten thicker and thicker over the years?" Feng Guang laughed with amusement, realizing for the first time that Shen Xing actually had a talent for crosstalk.
Shen Xing was not angered by Feng Guang's sarcasm. In the past six years, in addition to the Xia family, other families who knew about this matter also mocked him.
To others, Shen Xing betrayed his fiancée, and more importantly, this fiancée was the eldest daughter of the Xia family. His choice to choose an adopted daughter of the Xia family was an extremely foolish thing to do.
Countless people would want to establish a connection with the Xia family to help their own family businesses reach new heights, but Shen Xing picked up a treasure and then threw it away. Naturally, some sentimental women would sigh, "Shen Xing really chose beauty over power. What a devoted man he is! He's truly enviable."
Despite the harsh voices from the outside world, Shen Xing and Yan Niannian stayed together. Even though the Shen family's fortunes had declined, they were still together.
Seeing Shen Xing suddenly show a look of relief, Feng Guang sneered, "What? Now that you and Yan Niannian are together, you've gotten what you wanted, are you happy?"
He didn't speak.
"Shen Xing, since you don't like me, why did you agree to marry me in the first place? It's fine if you didn't refuse the marriage, but why did you spend a month with me abroad that winter?" Feng Guang curled his lips in mockery. "In the end, you just wanted the power of my Xia family. I guess you thought that since you didn't have a woman you liked, the Xia family was powerful and wealthy, and could be an asset to your Shen family. So, you naturally got together with me."
“…You’re right.” Shen Xing didn’t deny it, because everything Feng Guang said was correct.
Feng Guang then said, "So, when you met your true love, you started thinking about how to get rid of me."
What a joke! She thought he genuinely liked her, so she saw him as her boyfriend and future husband. In the end, she was just too foolish.
