Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1708: Chapter 1310: Failed to Dodge_3

Ever since she could remember, Xu Chunxia knew what money and power meant. Back in the production team, families with officials lived noticeably better than regular members, and walking through the village, they received the respect of everyone. Especially since Xu Chunxia had Kang Li as a playmate—her father was the Team Leader, her mother was the Women’s Federation Director—and Xu Chunxia herself was always a little crooked in her thoughts, so she had secretly been jealous of Kang Li.

Maybe that’s why, before Kang Li had her engagement broken off by the Zhou Family, Xu Chunxia was dead set on sabotaging her ”good friend’s” marriage, wanting to turn Zhou Weimin into her own lifelong support.

If we’re talking about Xu Chunxia’s understanding in the village, she clearly saw how important power was. Then later, when she went to G City, Shen City, and even abroad, her horizons broadened, and she understood even more what having money and power meant.

So, right now, she was scared—scared that Feng Lu might actually come after her.

What to do?

Where should she go now?

Xu Chunxia dragged her suitcase along, lost and bewildered.

Go back home... Should she go back to her hometown?

Now, she didn’t have much cash on her, but still nearly two thousand yuan—back in her hometown, that was a pretty decent sum, enough for her to put on some face.

She glanced at her clothes and decided to return to her rental. She needed to buy some more low-key clothes and skirts. Otherwise, with what she was wearing now, walking into the village would definitely spark a lot of gossip.

After all, people in the countryside are conservative. Anyone who saw her with bare arms and legs, wearing a tight, low-cut mini dress, would definitely think badly of her.

...

Feng Lu went back to the home she shared with Han Bin—that little white villa. She waited and waited, and two days later, Han Bin finally came home.

”I thought you’d set up another home somewhere and had no intention of coming back.”

Right now, it was just the two of them. Feng Lu was neither pleased nor angry, sitting on the sofa in the living room, watching Han Bin.

”You...”

Han Bin sat down on the sofa across from Feng Lu, looking a bit worn out.

He didn’t say anything for a while, and Feng Lu wasn’t in a hurry, just sat there quietly watching him.

Faced with a Feng Lu like this, Han Bin couldn’t help but notice how much his wife had changed. Suddenly, he was uncertain what Feng Lu was thinking, what her attitude was about him having a woman outside.

He lowered his gaze, lips pressed tight. He knew avoiding things wasn’t going to help, so he looked up at Feng Lu: ”Like you saw, that kid she’s carrying is mine. But I can tell you for certain that it wasn’t on purpose. The second month after you went to work at the local hospital, I happened to run into her, almost fainting on the street,

so I helped her home out of kindness. Who could’ve guessed... Who could’ve guessed the water I drank was off. Anyway, I know I have a family, so I never planned to have anything else with her. But a month later,

she suddenly came to me, said she was pregnant with my kid. My first reaction was, impossible. Then I told her to get rid of it, but she said her doctor said she couldn’t have an abortion, or she’d risk heavy bleeding.

She didn’t want me to take responsibility... But because of what the doctor said, I had no choice but to let her keep the kid. I thought, when she gave birth, I’d take the child home and then cut ties for good... But today, something went wrong, she lost the baby,

and had massive bleeding. Thanks to the doctor’s best efforts, her life was saved. Once she gets discharged, I’ll give her a sum of money as compensation. Do you have anything else you want to ask?”

Before Feng Lu could speak, Han Bin’s voice sounded again: ”By the way, the day you ran out of the office, I fired her right after.”

”She didn’t want you to take responsibility, then why did she come to you after finding out she was pregnant? Isn’t that pretty contradictory?”

Feng Lu wasn’t crying or shouting, just quietly looking at Han Bin: ”If she really didn’t want you to be involved, she wouldn’t show up in front of you again. That lump of flesh in her belly, she wanted to keep it for herself. If the doctor said no surgery, she could’ve had the baby without ever telling you.”

At this, Feng Lu laughed: ”Let’s be honest, that woman wanted to play victim and savior at the same time. You met her almost fainting on the street, but it was obviously a setup. Someone as smart as you still fell for it, brought her into your home, drank whatever water she gave you without a second thought.

In my experience, you’re supposed to be a smart guy. How did you get caught so easily? You knew she was up to something, and still, when you ran into her, didn’t have the tiniest bit of caution. What does that say? Don’t tell me you don’t know.”
