Chapter 989: Chapter 989: Do You Think That’s All There Is?
Wen Yanqing lifted her eyes and said mockingly to Feng Yangyang, “Perhaps you never expected the unexpected windfall, that Ruan Ning’s heart just happened to be a successful match for you. To you, it must have seed like a pie falling from the sky, huh?”
Xing You chuckled, “Indeed, getting rid of a love rival and having one’s life extended at the sa ti.”
Gu Zhichuan clenched his fists and looked at Feng Yangyang, who was holding Ruan Ning’s heart in a pitiful and morbid state, his eyes filled with coldness, “Are you still acting? Feng Yangyang.”
Feng Yangyang’s lips turned gray-white, and she seed to be having a more genuine episode than any before.
“I’m not pretending,” she said weakly, “The cris you just ntioned, I didn’t commit them, I don’t admit to them.”
“Of course, you wouldn’t dare,” Wen Yanqing saw right through her, “Ruan Ning is Mr. Gu’s cherished mory. If you admit that she died because of you, then you would never have the chance to get close to him again.”
The look Gu Zhichuan gave Feng Yangyang was unfamiliar and cold, as if he had never known her.
Ruan Ning was his first love, the person he had deeply loved in his youth. If not for that accident, perhaps they would have had children and a complete family by now.
The loss of Ruan Ning was the pain he could never let go of.
Therefore, knowing that her heart was beating inside Feng Yangyang’s chest, he had taken care of her in every possible way, but now he realized that she was wearing a mask, exploiting his feelings and mories of Ruan Ning to use him and rcilessly harm those around him.
She was using Ruan Ning’s heart, didn’t she feel any guilt at all?!
Gu Zhichuan flung away Feng Yangyang’s hand in a swift motion, “It’s amusing to watch being played by you, isn’t it?”
“It wasn’t .” Feng Yangyang tried to explain again and again. Cast aside, she refused to give up, leaning in and reaching out her hand, trying to grasp him.
However, Gu Zhichuan was convinced she was lying. His anger almost drowned his reason, and no matter how pitiable her expression was, he couldn’t feel any sympathy.
He didn’t even want to let her touch him.
His utter coldness bred resentnt in Feng Yangyang, who then turned her head and looked venomously at Wen Yanqing, “Why? Why are you framing ?”
“Framing?” Wen Yanqing laughed coldly, “Aren’t you the one who always talks about evidence? Now that the eyewitness is here, you still say I am wrongly accusing you.”
“Enough,” Gu Zhichuan closed his eyes.
“Not enough,” Wen Yanqing’s eyes were sharp, “Gu Zhichuan, do you think that’s all she’s done?”
Gu Zhichuan listened to Wen Yanqing say there was more, yet he was no longer filled with the disbelief and shock he had at the beginning.
What could be worse than attempting to murder Xing You or planning a car accident to kill Ruan Ning?
Wen Yanqing told him there was more.
“The Hejiang Road arson case, Mr. Gu hasn’t forgotten, has he?” Wen Yanqing reminded.
“I rember,” Gu Zhichuan couldn’t forget that fire. Lin Gantang had nearly lost his life in the bookstore. It was because Shi Muzhen had sought revenge for love, and he apologized, “Shi Muzhen has admitted her guilt and has been executed.”
“Do you think it’s that simple?” Wen Yanqing looked at Feng Yangyang, “The reason Shi Muzhen impulsively committed a cri was because soone behind the scenes was instigating it, right, Miss Feng?”
Seeing how Gu Zhichuan’s gaze had gone from trust to suspicion, and finally to the present disappointnt, estrangent, and bitter hatred, Feng Yangyang had already given up struggling.
The thing she had always wanted to possess, she would never be able to approach again, so there was no point in keeping up the act anymore.
She let out a cold sneer.
Gu Zhichuan knew by this that she had admitted it.
If that fire hadn’t been fortuitous, who knows how many more people it might have affected, how many innocent lives might have been lost.
Gu Zhichuan felt that today’s confrontation was not only about questioning Feng Yangyang’s guilt but also about dissecting his own heart and chastising his own negligence.
It was his failure to recognize the wolf beside him that had sown the seeds of disaster.
“Did you never think of stopping?” Gu Zhichuan felt overwheld by the sheer absurdity.
