Chapter 194 Fang Shuying's Secret
Lu's mother frowned immediately. She switched the child to her other hand and said seriously, "Old Fang, Su Jing, you can't just say things like that."
"You two are almost seventy and fifty, almost 130 years old combined. Do you realize how much your words affect the child?"
She disliked Fang Shuying, but she never intended to ruin the girl's life.
Su Jing cried even harder, wanting to explain, but unable to utter a single complete sentence.
Fang Bo'an sighed and patted Su Jing on the shoulder: "Let me explain."
"Ever since Shuying came back last time, she's like a completely different person."
"The more obedient she was before, the more dissolute she became later..."
Aunt Lu's face darkened further, and she couldn't help but scold, "Old Fang!"
Fang Bo'an's old face was full of stubbornness: "I'm not talking nonsense."
"She tried to stop your Xiangyang from getting married last time but failed, and she keeps changing boyfriends every few days..."
Old Lu's eyebrows almost shot up: "What do you mean, you surnamed Fang?"
"Your daughter is promiscuous, and you have the nerve to blame my son?"
"I haven't even blamed your daughter for being stupid and almost ruining my son's chances of getting married..."
Fang Bo'an looked exhausted: "Can you let me finish what I have to say?"
Old Lu, huffing and puffing, held his grandson and sat down heavily in a chair, staring intently at Fang Bo'an: "You speak."
Fang Bo'an sighed again, and couldn't help but rub his furrowed brow: "I don't blame your son."
"I mean, it was only after that incident that I realized the child had gone astray a long time ago."
He slammed his fist on the table in anger and cursed, "Xiao Su and I poured all our savings into sending her abroad to learn real skills. I never expected that this brat wouldn't learn anything good there, but she did learn to seduce men perfectly."
"I had many boyfriends while I was abroad, and I didn't stop having them after I returned to China."
"She's only been back for a short time, but she's already got enough boyfriends to fill a football team."
“There’s no one she wouldn’t dare to seduce, whether they’re from the capital or the port city, whether their family is in business or in government.”
"She...she...she actually..."
He looked as if he was reluctant to speak.
Su Jing choked up: "She, she actually had foreign boyfriends, both black and white."
If it weren't for cleaning the house before the New Year and taking out some of Fang Shuying's photos and letters while sorting through her luggage, Su Jing wouldn't have believed that the promiscuous woman was actually her daughter.
But what can they do when their daughter is their own child?
They even gave up the idea of letting Fang Shuying get married, and dared not tell their three sons about her promiscuous private life.
They feared that their innocent and lovely younger sister would be unable to accept the reality that she was actually a promiscuous woman and would disown her.
This news is even more shocking than the earlier claim that Fang Shuying wasn't their biological daughter.
Mr. and Mrs. Lu looked at each other in bewilderment.
He had also forgotten the grudge he held against Fang Shuying for disrupting Lu Xiangyang's wedding.
Unable to contain herself, Lu's mother pressed, "What exactly happened? What's going on?"
One minute she's not their biological daughter, the next she's a promiscuous woman. She couldn't help but suspect that the couple had discovered Fang Shuying's secret and didn't want to acknowledge their daughter anymore, so they came up with this excuse to sever ties with her.
Su Jing was both embarrassed and angry: "You all knew that Shuying was coming back for the New Year, right?"
Of course I know that.
Fang Shuying is now acting very flamboyantly.
Not only is she dressed in a fashionable and stylish way, but her behavior is also just like that of foreigners—open and bold.
When they came back, they not only drove, but also blew kisses to acquaintances of the same age, regardless of gender, and gave elders a warm hug.
His humility and reserve are so deeply ingrained that people simply can't handle his enthusiasm.
Young people are better at accepting new ideas and behaviors, but the older generation privately say that she went astray abroad and feel that Mr. and Mrs. Fang should not have sent such a young girl abroad.
Of course, Lu's parents knew the details very well because after Fang Shuying returned, she didn't visit anyone else's house, but specifically came to the Lu family to deliver gifts.
And it was only given to Lu's parents.
The gift for Lu's father was a men's watch bought abroad, supposedly worth several hundred US dollars, while the gift for Lu's mother was a set of jewelry, also worth several hundred US dollars, supposedly very popular abroad right now, including earrings, a necklace, and a bracelet.
Even setting aside the current awkward relationship between the two companies, even at their best, they wouldn't dare accept something so expensive.
As soon as Fang Shuying delivered it, Aunt Lu quickly returned it, afraid that Fang Shuying would cause trouble, and even avoided letting her know.
Su Jing calmed herself down before finally mustering the courage to recount what happened next:
"The day after she came back, the housekeeper cooked a pot of crucian carp soup, and she started to feel nauseous as soon as she smelled it."
Su Jing still feels a bit dazed when she recalls the situation: "I... I've been through this too. With her like this, and her boyfriends who never left her side, how could I not know what happened?"
"At first she was unwilling to talk about it, but later her father..."
Fang Bo'an interjected, "I'm not her father! I don't have such a shameless daughter!"
He doesn't actually mind that his daughter isn't his biological child, but he does mind that the daughter he raised with all his heart and soul is a good-for-nothing.
Su Jing immediately changed her story: "...Later, Lao Fang got really angry, and she got scared and told the truth. She, she was pregnant."
Pregnancy before marriage is always a huge scandal, no matter what.
The couple nearly fainted when they heard this. Their first reaction was that no one else should know about this, and their second reaction was that the child should not be kept.
Fortunately, Fang Shuying was either frightened or something else, but she never intended to keep the child, so she easily agreed to have an abortion.
Su Jing was afraid of losing face if her acquaintances found out, so she deliberately chose a hospital where she didn't know anyone.
As it turned out, the doctor at the unfamiliar hospital was unreliable, and a simple abortion procedure caused Fang Shuying to suffer severe bleeding.
The massive bleeding required a blood transfusion, but a suitable blood source couldn't be found in time, so Fang Bo'an and Su Jing decided to use their own blood to save Fang Shuying's life.
To everyone's surprise, the blood test results showed that Fang Bo'an was type A, Su Jing was type O, but Fang Shuying was type B.
In other words, Fang Shuying has no relation to the couple. Although a blood transfusion is possible, it will be Su Jing's blood that is being transfused.
Fang Shuying's life was saved, but the couple were almost driven mad.
If Fang Shuying isn't their biological daughter, then how did their biological daughter become Fang Shuying? And where did their biological daughter go?
Lu's father: "..."
Lu's mother: "..."
Mr. Lu's face darkened; the idea of switching children was disgusting.
Even if it wasn't his own child who got into trouble, he couldn't help but feel a sense of shared indignation: "Old Fang? You're just going to let this go like this?"
"That's your own daughter! You don't even know if she's alive or dead, and you're just going to swallow this insult?"
Where did your fierce protectiveness of your own people, which made everyone hate you and wanted to kill you, go?
"That's your own daughter!"
