Chapter 994 - : Just a Liar
Chapter 994: Just a Liar
If Ling Sheng had known that they would be coming to the cemetery, she would have bought some paper money to burn. She knew that there was no such thing as reincarnation, but she had to have some faith in her heart. She bent down and placed the daisies in front of the tombstone. Then, she smiled and greeted her. “Hi, Auntie Dongfang. I’m Ling Sheng.”
“The child doesn’t know any better. If she offended you, please don’t take it to heart.” Upon seeing her solemn greeting, Yan Yuanfei looked at her. “Sheng Sheng, take a stroll around the cemetery!”
He only wanted to stay here alone for a while. This trip could be considered a form of psychological comfort for him!
Ling Sheng looked around. Besides tombstones, there were only tombstones. Where should she go for a stroll? Should she greet the people in the tombs?
Jiang Pei shot her a look and waved her over.
Ling Sheng jogged over and smiled at him. “Then, let’s walk around and greet everyone.”
Jiang Pei tried to scare her. “Aren’t you afraid? Why are you even greeting them? Be careful. They might come out to find you.”
Ling Sheng’s smile became even more dazzling. “I’ll be waiting!”
Jiang Pei shook her head and smiled. Miss Sheng Sheng was really bold. As a strapping man himself, he felt a chill run down his spine when he came to such a place.
Before Ling Sheng and Jiang Pei could walk far, they heard a severe shout behind them. When they turned around, they saw Dongfang Meng walking over with plenty of things in her hands.
Dongfang Meng had not expected to meet this man here.
He didn’t die?! Why was he still alive? Her older sister had suffered so much because of him in the end. What right did he have to live on in this world properly?
She was dying to skin him alive, eat his flesh, drink his blood, and crush his bones to feed them to the dogs. Yet now, he had appeared in front of her sister’s tombstone openly.
How could he have the cheek to come here? How could he have the cheek to come and see her sister? When her sister was on her deathbed, she had gone to find him and begged him to take a look at her. This heartless man remained unmoved!
Upon seeing that the situation was bad, Ling Sheng ran over hurriedly. Oh no, it’s over! This scene right in front of her was the epitome of coincidence. Why had they bumped into each other so coincidentally? They had even met in front of Dongfang Chu’s grave.
Yan Yuanfei looked at the enraged Dongfang Meng and greeted her gently. “Second Miss, I hope you’ve been well.”
He had not expected that so many people could still recognize him at a glance from his current appearance. Sixth Brother and the others had recognized him because of their friendship. She had probably recognized him because of hatred.
Dongfang Meng’s lips curled up coldly as hatred welled up in her eyes. “Well? My sister is already dead. How can I be well? The person who killed my sister is still alive in this world. My sister entrusted her feelings to the wrong person and died with a grievance. How can I be fine? I look forward to her death every day!”
Yan Yuanfei’s eyes turned cold abruptly, and there was a rare hint of anger in them. “Second Miss, be careful with your words. If Second Miss has any grievances, feel free to vent them on me. Everything happened because of me. It has nothing to do with her.”
“You’re already a dead man. What’s the point of blaming or hating you? I shouldn’t have listened to my parents’ advice back then. I should have dug up your grave and fed your corpse to the dogs. Perhaps I would have known that the dignified Second Master of the Yan Family had faked his death to escape.” Dongfang Meng let out an exaggerated, mocking laugh, laughing until tears streamed down her face.
Sister, did you hear that? He’s still talking about protecting that woman in front of your grave. That good sister you firmly believed in.
“If Second Miss really thinks so, you can do it now. I have no objections,” Yan Yuanfei said in a low voice.
“You want to die, is that it?” A ruthless look appeared in Dongfang Meng’s eyes. “I won’t let you get what you want. I’ll tell everyone in China that you, Yan Yuanfei, are not a hero! You’re a coward, a useless scoundrel! You’re a liar! You deceived everyone in China!”
Does he want to die? It won’t be that easy!
She wanted to ruin his good reputation! She wanted the whole of China who respected him, worshiped him, and treated him as a Chinese hero to know that he was a bullsh*t hero! He was just a spineless liar!
Yan Yuanfei’s eyes gradually darkened, and his voice turned cold too. “Second Miss, other than this, I can let you do whatever you want with me.”
“Why? What you just said changed in the blink of an eye?” Dongfang Meng’s lips curled up coldly. “Yan Yuanfei, look at you. You’re already half-dead, yet the person you’re most worried about is still that woman. What’s so good about her? She’s just an adopted daughter of my Dongfang Family!”
What was so good about Wen Ruoshui? She could not even compare to a single finger of her sister! In the end? She had snatched her sister’s man and even caused her death!
“It’s not for her. It’s simply for the peace in China.” Yan Yuanfei’s smile carried hints of bitterness and self-deprecation. “Second Miss, you should also know what kind of turmoil China will experience if I’m not dead. What will other countries think of China internationally too? I don’t represent myself. I represent China.”
He had once been involved in important missions. The whole world knew about his death. Most of the people who had come to his funeral had been important national leaders.
If the news that he had not died was spread… If it was just his personal issue, it would not matter. However, this concerned China, so she had no right to do so.
“Dongfang Meng!” Upon seeing her aggressive countenance, Ling Sheng directly jumped in front of Yan Yuanfei. “What do you want to do? Come at me.”
“What do I want to do?” Dongfang Meng looked at the wench who had suddenly appeared and let out a cold laugh. “What if I say I want to kill him? Are you willing to die for him?”
What a loving uncle and niece relationship! What could she do? No matter how angry she was, what else could she do? It wasn’t like she could kill someone.
He was right. He was the most revered man. He had been the youngest person ever to take office. He was neither servile nor overbearing, and he had fought for countless benefits for China. He was a man who was well-respected and highly praised internationally.
Look at how ridiculous this was. As a member of the Dongfang Family, she had the right and obligation to protect the dignity of China. However, she could not do anything to him even though her enemy was right in front of her and she held leverage over him.
“Don’t go overboard! How do you know that the one Ms. Dongfang likes is my Second Uncle? That she died of depression because of my Second Uncle and not another man!” Ling Sheng’s expression was very cold. Her words were sonorous and she matched her evenly with her imposing aura.
Dongfang Meng laughed in a mocking and contemptuous manner. “Then tell me, if my sister didn’t die because of them, she died because of which other man?”
“How could I know if you, as her younger sister, don’t know? Just look at her old belongings. I don’t believe she didn’t leave anything behind.” Ling Sheng thought of the diary with the password.
