Chapter 878 Pain
"I did it. What do you think?" The man's crazy laughter on the other end of the phone almost pierced Shen Fang's eardrums. "How is it? Does it feel good to be Young Master Shen? Does it feel desperate to lose everything? Hahahaha!"
Shen Fang's knuckles turned white as he held the phone, his face livid, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words: "Who are you? What is your purpose?"
"Want to know who I am? Beg me, Master Shen. I will tell you if you beg me." The man's tone was frivolous, with teasing and malice like a cat playing with a mouse.
"You're dreaming!" Shen Fang hung up the phone abruptly, his chest heaving violently, and an unprecedented sense of anger and powerlessness surrounded him tightly. From childhood to adulthood, he was a favored child of heaven, and he had everything he wanted. How could he have ever experienced the feeling of being manipulated by others?
He smashed the phone against the wall, and it instantly broke into pieces, with fragments flying everywhere. Jiang Mubai was shocked by his action. She had never seen Shen Fang so out of control before, and for a moment she was at a loss.
"Shen Fang, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Shen Fang took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress his inner anger. He turned around and looked at Jiang Mubai with a complicated look in his eyes. "Xiaobai, I may not be able to protect you like before..."
Jiang Mubai's heart suddenly sank. She vaguely guessed something, but still didn't want to believe it. "Shen Fang, what are you talking about? What do you mean you can't protect me anymore?"
Shen Fang smiled bitterly, pulled Jiang Mubai into his arms, and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his body. "Xiaobai, I'm bankrupt, and the Shen family... is finished..."
Jiang Mubai's body suddenly stiffened. She raised her head in disbelief and looked at Shen Fang, "How...how is this possible? How could this happen?"
Shen Fang didn't say anything, but buried his head in her neck, greedily breathing in her scent, as if he wanted to make this moment eternal.
He knew that he couldn't deceive himself anymore. The Shen family was finished, and he was now just a poor man with nothing. How could he protect Jiang Mubai? How could he give her happiness?
"Who is it? Who caused you to be like this?" Jiang Mubai suddenly grabbed Shen Fang's shoulders and asked anxiously, "Is it Lu Qing? Is it him?!"
Shen Fang shook his head, "It's not him, it's... someone else."
"Who is it? Who is it?!"
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Shen Fang let go of Jiang Mubai and looked at her with a firm and resolute look in his eyes. "Xiaobai, listen to me. Things are beyond our control now. I can't let you get involved anymore. Go away, leave here, the farther the better, and don't come back."
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I leave you at this time?!" Jiang Mubai held Shen Fang's hand tightly, as if he was holding on to his last straw. "I won't leave. I want to be with you. No matter what happens, I will face it with you!"
Shen Fang looked at Jiang Mubai, his eyes full of struggle and pain. He knew that Jiang Mubai's feelings for him were real, but he couldn't be so selfish. He couldn't drag her into this quagmire.
"Xiaobai, be obedient! Now is not the time to be willful. It will be more dangerous if you stay with me!" Shen Fang pried Jiang Mubai's hands apart with force, with a barely perceptible pleading in his tone, "Go away, forget me, forget everything, and start over..."
"No! I don't want to!" Jiang Mubai's tears burst out. She threw herself into Shen Fang's arms and hugged him tightly, as if she wanted to melt him in her hot tears. "Shen Fang, I love you! I don't want to leave you! Please, don't chase me away..."
Shen Fang's heart seemed to be torn into pieces. He closed his eyes and buried his head deeply in Jiang Mubai's neck. Hot tears silently slid down his cheeks. "Xiaobai, I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
At this moment, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open roughly, and a tall figure appeared at the door. The person was none other than Lu Qing who had returned!
"Jiang Mubai, you fucking dare to say you love him?!" Lu Qing roared, his voice full of jealousy and anger. He rushed forward, pulled Jiang Mubai out of Shen Fang's arms, and threw her aside fiercely, "Damn bitch, have you forgotten how you begged me?!"
Jiang Mubai was thrown aside by Lu Qing and fell to the ground. Her originally fair arms were scratched by the rough floor, leaving red marks. She ignored the pain, raised her head, and looked at Lu Qing with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of disbelief and hurt, "Lu Qing, are you crazy? How could you do this to me?!"
Lu Qing looked down at her with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a stranger. "I told you a long time ago, don't challenge my bottom line!"
He turned his head abruptly, staring at Shen Fang with his scarlet eyes, "And you, Shen Fang, you're really haunting me! Even after all this, you still want to monopolize Xiao Bai?!"
Shen Fang struggled to get up, but was kicked to the ground by Lu Qing. The severe pain made him groan.
He covered his aching chest and raised his head to look at Lu Qing with difficulty. There was no fear in his eyes, only blazing anger. "Lu Qing, what on earth do you want to do? Xiaobai has nothing to do with you anymore!"
"Nothing to do with it?!"
Lu Qing seemed to have heard a big joke. He suddenly bent down, grabbed Jiang Mubai's chin, and forced her to look up and look at him. "Jiang Mubai, tell him whether there is any relationship between us?! That's not what you said when you begged me to have sex with you!"
The vulgar words were like sharp knives that stabbed into Jiang Mubai's heart, making her feel miserable.
She struggled desperately, trying to break free from Lu Qing's grip, but he held her tighter, as if to crush her bones.
"Lu Qing, shut up!" Shen Fang's eyes were red with anger. He struggled to get up, but was kicked to the ground by Lu Qing again.
"Shen Fang, shut the fuck up!" Lu Qing stepped on Shen Fang's chest and leaned over, his eyes full of madness and cruelty, "Who do you think you are? You're just a bankrupt stray dog! Xiaobai is my woman, she was, is, and will be! You are not qualified to own her!"
"Lu Qing, you..." Shen Fang coughed painfully a few times, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but he still raised his head stubbornly, looked at Lu Qing, and said word by word, "You...don't even think about it!"
Lu Qing's eyes became even more vicious. He raised his foot and stepped hard on Shen Fang's fingers. The sound of bones breaking was particularly harsh in the silent ward.
