Hearing Lin Feiâerâs voice, the three of them who were arguing were stunned.
Su Wan widened her eyes. She turned around and saw Lin Feiâer looking at the three of them stoically.
Lin Feiâer stood alone at the corner. The dim light shone on her face, making her look bafflingly gloomy.
Su Wan bit her lips and her breath became heavy. Just now, she simply pretended to make a call to scare Li Peng. Before she could think of the right words, she didnât dare inform Lin Feiâer of the cruel truth.
On the other hand, Li Peng was ghastly pale. His firm lips were now in a straight line and fear surged in his heart without reason.
When had Lin Feiâer appeared? How much had she heard?
Just when Lin Peng and Su Wan were thinking what to say, another person stood out first.
Tears appeared on Yang Xiaobingâs pretty face. She timidly walked toward Lin Feiâer. Her voice was so gentle and soft, it was like a rose that would be damaged by the wind and rain.
âSis Feiâer, I beg you, please donât allow Brother Peng to ask me to abort my child! I know Iâve wronged you but youâre about to be a mother too. How could you bear to see another life being ended?â
While Yang Xiaobing said this, she touched her stomach, her face showing tender and pitiful maternal love.
Yang Xiaobingâs pleads entered Lin Feiâerâs ears and instantly, she felt darkness all around.
Lin Feiâerâs face turned more and more pale, as if turning into a paper doll. She looked at Yang Xiaobingâs red and swollen eyes and then at Li Peng.
âIs what she said true?â she asked softly.
Her voice was neither fast nor slow and there was a sense of surprising calmness.
Li Peng, who usually has a way of dealing with Lin Feiâer, dared not look into her eyes currently.
Li Peng half lowered his head, guilt and heartache shadowing his face. His pupils were filled with pain and he could only hold his hair while murmured, âFeiâer, I...â
Facing Li Pengâs hesitation and fear of explanation, Lin Feiâer stood at the empty corridor. Suddenly, she felt very cold.
It was really cold, even though it was almost May now. However, she who stood there felt like she was in a world of snow.
Lin Feiâer looked at Li Peng steadily, as if wishing he would continue explaining.
Li Peng looked at Lin Feiâer nervously and worriedly, afraid she would collapse that instant.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He knew Lin Feiâer was a person with a strong personality but that moment, she merely stood there, unlike Su Wan, who hadnât hesitated to slap him.
Li Pengâs heart tightened. His fingers trembled and after a long silence, he forced out a short sentence from between his teeth.
âFeiâer, Iâve done you wrong.â
Lin Feiâer did not think she would hear such a sentence from Li Pengâs mouth one day and it was so hurtful.
She slowly clenched her fists and there was a piercing pain in her palms.
Time seemed to have frozen.
Everyone was silent. Su Wan saw how Lin Feiâer tortured her own hands. She dashed toward Lin Feiâer and tried to loosen her grip.
However, Lin Feiâer broke free from Su Wan. Su Wan looked at her with heartache. Su Wan gaped and understood that sorrow as she had once been betrayed too.
So, she understood how Lin Feiâer felt now but knew Lin Feiâer must be feeling much more pain than she had back then.
However, under such circumstances where they were taken by surprise, Su Wan didnât know how to console Lin Feiâer.
Everything appeared to be futile and desolate.
Lin Feiâer took a deep breath. She looked at Li Peng and Yang Xiaobing, who was hiding behind him indifferently. She did not cry, not even a tear.
Her heart was empty, painful, sad, and aggrieved. All sorts of emotions appeared in her heart, almost making her faint!
However, Lin Feiâer did not faint. She tried very hard to maintain the last bit of calmness in her mind. She even moved her lips and showed a faint smile.
Li Peng looked at her nervously, hoping Lin Feiâer would scold him or hit him.
Just then, Li Peng heard Lin Feiâerâs question.
âWhen did the both of you begin your relationship?â
Li Peng was slightly stunned. His look changed very quickly and his voice started to shake slightly.
âSince Xiaobing returned from abroad...â
Upon hearing this, Lin Feiâerâs brain went blank. Li Pengâs ironic words kept circling in her mind.
She felt her heart being pricked by many needles and the sharp pain made it difficult for her to even breathe.
After a long time, Lin Feiâer regained her senses. According to what Li Peng said, he and Xiaobing had an affair before they got married...
Then, why did Li Peng marry her and promise that she would be the only woman he would love for the rest of his life at the wedding ceremony?
Li Feiâer deepened her smile but that smile was more hideous than crying. It was as bitter as gall.
Li Peng saw the miserable smile on Lin Feiâerâs face. There was a sudden pain in his heart. He walked to Lin Feiâer and his hands wrapped hers tightly.
Li Peng suddenly discovered that not only was Lin Feiâerâs face ghastly pale but her hands were also extremely cold.
Yang Xiaobing, who was hiding behind Li Peng, saw his love for Lin Feiâer and her pretty face was filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
If things were to continue developing according to the current situation, she was afraid that Li Peng would manage to win Lin Feiâerâs heart back. By then, how could she keep a foothold and what would happen to her child?
Yang Xiaobing bit her lips and ran toward Lin Feiâer immediately. She knelt down in front of Lin Feiâer.
Yang Xiaobing tilted her face up pitifully. Her weak hand tugged at Lin Feiâerâs skirt.
âSis Feiâer, I know you love me the most. Could you let me have Brother Peng? Iâm a child without a father and know how bitter it is to have no father. I canât let my child be without a father too.â
âShut up!â
Hearing what Yang Xiaobing said, Su Wan was both surprised and angry. She quickly parted Yang Xiaobingâs hand from Lin Feiâerâs skirt and pulled her up.
Li Peng had never expected Yang Xiaobing to say such words to Lin Feiâer! She had promised to return to Nanyang once she delivered the baby and would not interrupt his life with Lin Feiâer.
Lin Feiâer half lowered her head and in a trance, looked at the still childish girl beside her.
Sure, she had loved Yang Xiaobing in the past because she thought Yang Xiaobing was adorable, obedient, sensible and pitiful but now, Lin Feiâer thought Yang Xiaobingâs pure and naïve face was filled with enmity, just like a ghost from hell asking for her life.
Suddenly, Lin Feiâer was scared. âAh!â She screamed loudly and dashed out without turning back.
