Fang Junjie took Fu Xiaotang back to their place for some rest. Fu Xiaotang, looking exhausted but unusually calm, took a bath, ate some food prepared by Fang Junjie, and then obediently went to bed. Seeing her asleep, Fang Junjie felt slightly relieved. He held her hand, lost in thought for a moment, then lightly kissed her forehead before returning to his room. He instructed Situ Nan to keep a close watch on the hospital and report back at any time. Then he arranged to meet with Zhang Rong.
When Zhang Rong saw Fang Junjie enter, he managed a strained smile on his usually gentle face, then struck a cool, handsome, and somewhat helpless pose, throwing himself onto the sofa. Zhang Rong asked, “How is Xiaotang?” “She’s asleep, her mood is relatively stable,” Fang Junjie replied, then suddenly remembered to ask, “What about Liu Shiquan and Liu Yi?” Zhang Rong gave a slight sneer, “Liu Yi seems to have lost her mind, and she’s been arrested by the police for suspected intentional injury. Liu Shiquan has been drinking poison to quench his thirst; if I withdraw the bank financing, I don’t need to do anything else. By next week, Hengqing Real Estate will be no more. This father-daughter duo has brought this upon themselves, but I’m not in the mood to do anything further to them. Their spirit is broken; any more blows would be unchivalrous.”
Fang Junjie nodded, pondering for a while before speaking slowly as if talking to himself, “We were a bit careless in this matter. Everything was under control until Song Li got involved.” Zhang Rong shook his head slowly, “Song Li deliberately provoked Liu Shiquan and his daughter in public, choosing sharp words to incite Liu Yi. There was some intent there. Plus, when I first found out Song Li and Cheng Yu were also investigating this, didn’t we discuss this? I forced Song Li to marry Liu Yi. If Liu Yi were Fang’er’s daughter, deeply in love with Song Li, I’d fulfill her wish. If Liu Yi was lying, and Xiaotang is Fang’er’s daughter, then this would be punishment for Song Li for making Xiao Ji so heartbroken.”
