Chapter 154: Raising You Is Better Than Raising a Dog

Fang Jiayi had worried that they wouldn’t have the courage to stand up for her. However, now that her plan had borne fruit, she spoke slowly, saying, “Her name is Tang Nan, and she’s the daughter of the Tang family…”

Fang Liguo and Song Ling perked up at the mention of Tang Nan. The esteemed daughter of the Tang family?

“She made it clear that anyone who opposed her sister was essentially challenging the entire Tang family. She even went as far as to threaten that if they remained unconvinced, they could seek her out at the Tang Corps.”

Fang Liguo and Song Ling were rendered speechless, as if a heavy blow had struck them. It was common knowledge within the affluent circles that President Tang of the Tang Corps held an unwavering affection for his daughter, Tang Nan. Confronting her could only lead to humiliation and trouble – even if it meant financial ruin, they’d be lucky to touch a hair on her head. This deal was not worth the trouble!

“Jiayi… I understand you’ve been wronged. It’s all Fang Yuan’s doing. Just wait, 1’11 confront her on this,” Song Ling declared.

Song Ling recognized that she couldn’t possibly compete with the might of the Tang family. Her only recourse was to direct her anger toward Fang Yuan, especially considering the financial disparity between the two families.

“It’s undeniably Yuanyuan’s fault. She went astray, and Jiayi offered her help. It’s one thing if she didn’t listen, but she even instigated her friend to resort to violence!” Fang Liguo exclaimed, pointing at his phone. “I’ll call her father right away and give her a stern talking to. She needs to apologize to Jiayi and do it promptly!”

Fang Jiayi couldn’t help but feel a mixture of disappointment and resignation. She realized that they were only willing to confront the less powerful, lacking the courage to take on the formidable Tang family. The Fang family’s own inadequacies were to blame for this predicament.

Fang Yuan had just arrived home when her phone buzzed. Recognizing Fang Liguo’s caller ID, she promptly ended the call, blocked the number, and proceeded to the living room.

Granny Fang was in her debt. As Fang Yuan’s only child, Fang Liguo’s welfare weighed heavily on her. Fang Yuan had no intention of causing her any harm unless she had no other recourse. With Granny Fang in mind, she retreated to her bedroom and dialed Chen Yang to inquire about the old lady’s well-being.

“Fang Xiaoyuan, you’ve been away for quite a while. Madame Fang has been gradually regaining consciousness. As per your instructions, she hasn’t revealed her condition to the Fang family. Madame Fang mentioned that she has no desire to see them…”

“Is she emotionally stable?” Fang Yuan inquired softly.

“Her emotional state is quite stable. She just misses you. She asked the nurse several times to lend her a phone to call you. The nurse mentioned that you visit the hospital often. She stayed awake long enough to catch a glimpse of you.”

Madame Fang’s phone had been confiscated by Song Ling. She feared that Madame Fang might regain consciousness one day and contact Fang Yuan, potentially leaving her entire inheritance to her. Consequently, Song Ling had taken away her phone.

“I’ll plan to visit her tomorrow,” Fang Yuan replied, her voice unusually gentle.

“Alright. I have a rather complicated case. Would you be able to take a look at it for me tomorrow?”

“Sure,” Fang Yuan agreed before ending the call. She noticed a series of WeChat messages from Song Ling.

[You little… You’re so willing to open your legs for an old man to sleep with. Hasn’t the Fang family’s upbringing over the years taught you anything?]

[Jiayi went out of her way to help you. It’s one thing if you didn’t listen, but you had the audacity to incite your disgraceful friends to harm her. Look at the severe beating she endured.]

[Get here immediately and apologize to Jiayi!]

Song Ling, not receiving a response from Fang Yuan, continued to send WeChat messages after a while.

[You’re truly an ingrate. Even a dog is better than you. A dog knows how to protect the house and wag its tail at its master. You’re worse than a dog!]

“If 1 were you, I’d rush over and prostrate myself before Jiayi, seeking her forgiveness.”

“I told you to come here right away. Can you hear me? Don’t play dead!”

Fang Yuan replied with a simple, “You’re insane,” and proceeded to block her on WeChat. She then readied herself for a shower and some rest.

Just then, a gentle knock sounded on the door, and Auntie Du’s voice carried from outside.

“Miss Fang Yuan, are you awake? Madam would like you to join us downstairs for a nourishing meal of bird’s nest soup.”

Initially not feeling hungry, Fang Yuan couldn’t refuse her mother’s kind gesture. She carefully stored her medicine for the night and made her way downstairs.

Cheng Yuqi ladled a bowl of bird’s nest soup, setting it before Qiao Xinhui. She spoke with sweetness in her voice, “Mom, I prepared this specially for you – it’s bird’s nest with red dates and longan.” She then prepared another bowl and handed it to Cheng Ye. “Dad, this one’s for you.”

Cheng Ye chuckled, “You don’t have to go to such trouble, dear.” He couldn’t help but notice how mature and considerate his child was becoming.

Qiao Xinhui also smiled, relieved by the situation. “Yuqi, you really don’t have to go through the trouble of doing all this.”

Even though Qiao Xinhui had only recently learned that she was not her biological child, the Cheng family had cherished and cared for her for 18 years. Their bond was deeply rooted, as strong as the love between any parents and their child. Seeing Yuqi’s unwavering filial piety and her willingness to take care of small details like making bird’s nest soup, Qiao Xinhui felt comforted and grateful for her continued devotion..
