Chapter 524: Self-inflicted Consequences (22)
Qiao Mo looked up dazedly at her, and she gave her a slight smile, with a hint of worry in her eyes.Qiao Mo forced a smile and said softly, "I’m fine."
Xu Wan nodded and said no more.
At this moment, Fu Nancheng looked at the dazed Elder Fu with sarcasm, "Is this the fiancée that grandpa meticulously selected for me?"
Elder Fu came back to his senses, momentarily at a loss for words. He looked at his grandson with a complicated expression.
He finally understood what was wrong.
When the door opened, he wasn’t in a rush to go inside.
If he truly believed the person inside was Qiao Mo, he would have barged in the moment the door opened, grabbed her by the hair, and questioned her sternly.
But he didn’t, even though he pretended to be shocked and incredulous.
He just looked on coldly.
No concern. No anger.
So, it was obvious he already knew who was inside!
"It seems grandpa’s judgment isn’t as good as mine, but it’s understandable, given his age; it’s inevitable he’d get confused about some things." Fu Nancheng stared at Elder Fu, speaking slowly.
Elder Fu was seething with anger, but standing before Fu Nancheng, he was still slightly trembling.
This grandson had unknowingly grown more ruthless than he had imagined.
At this moment, how could he not understand the reason?
This scene was clearly orchestrated by this grandson before him!
The purpose was to ruin the marriage between the Chen and Fu families.
Yet, he never expected he would be so cold-blooded as to be this ruthless to Chen Shiqing.
Fu Nancheng withdrew his gaze and said coldly, "As of today, the marriage between the Chen and Fu families is off."
Elder Fu lowered his eyes and didn’t intervene.
After all, no matter how much he wanted to see this marriage through, he couldn’t tolerate such a Chen Shiqing entering the Fu family!
Enough... enough...
This time, he had lost.
"No! I don’t want to cancel the wedding! I don’t want to cancel the wedding! I’m the young madam of the Fu family, I’m the young madam of the Fu family!" Chen Shiqing cried, sobbing and crawling forward.
The blanket draped over her kept slipping down, and Mrs. Chen quickly covered her, trying to stop her, "Shi Qing... Shi Qing!"
"I’m the young madam of the Fu family... I don’t want to call off the engagement! Nancheng, listen to me, listen to me, okay?" Chen Shiqing was tearful, crying her heart out.
"Please believe me, okay... This wasn’t my intention! It wasn’t my intention. It was them, they *** me! Someone set me up!" Chen Shiqing struggled several times, finally crawling to Fu Nancheng’s side, grabbing the hem of his trousers.
Those around them stepped back a few steps.
Only Fu Nancheng remained motionless, looking at her with extreme indifference.
Elder Fu lowered his eyes, feeling a slight pang of sympathy, and turned away silently.
"Nancheng! Someone set me up... you have to believe me... someone set me up!" Chen Shiqing spoke through sobs, her face full of tears, looking increasingly pitiful.
Suddenly, as if something dawned on her.
Yes, it was Qiao Mo!
It must have been Qiao Mo who set her up!
Qiao Mo deliberately went into a room in front, arousing her suspicion, and then as soon as she walked into this room, she was grabbed!
Thinking of this, Chen Shiqing immediately looked up at Qiao Mo on the other side, her face twisted with hatred, and her eyes full of intense malice.
"It was you! It was you, you bitch, who harmed me! It was you, you bitch, who set me up!"
