Chapter 728   - The White Lotus (3)

If Xing Yiyue hadn't been greedy and ambitious, scheming against Tang Moyu to get the empress out of her way, perhaps she wouldn't suffer such humiliation in return. She coveted someone that wasn't hers and ended up this miserable.

If it wasn't for her he wouldn't have lost Tang Moyu— or so he thought.

Just like his wife, Feng Tianhua was one of those people who never took into account their mistakes. They inflicted harm to others in the name of love and refused to take responsibility for their actions and rather blame other people for their misfortune.

"Stop crying. Do you really think I will fall for such a cheap trick again? You disgust me," Feng Tianhua sneered at his crying wife. Before, he would easily forget his anger whenever Xing Yiyue shed tears. But now, he only saw her as a cunning woman who only knew how to trick him.

Feng Tianhua always thought that he got a decent wife who admired him the most— that no matter what, Xing Yiyue wouldn't dare betray him. However, the fact that she purposely drugged Tang Moyu that night which ended up with her being pregnant with his brother's children was something Feng Tianhua couldn't accept. His enormous pride wouldn't allow him to do so.

Xing Yiyue lifted her head allowing Feng Tianhua to see her face. Although she looked pitiful at the moment, it couldn't be denied that she had a beautiful face— the same face that had managed to move and deceive her husband for years.

"Xing Yiyue, I have to admit, I admire your acting ability. I had planned to give you everything that you wanted in this world but who knew that you are such a venomous snake who only knew how to bite the hand that raised her status. Pathetic."

Xing Yiyue felt that her husband was scarier than before. She couldn't think of what to do to make him believe her again.

She smiled coldly as she couldn't accept this kind of humiliation any further. What made him think that she was the only one who committed a sin here? If he didn't covet Tang Moyu when she returned, wouldn't their situation be different to this?

"Heh, you call me pathetic?" Her lips curled into a sneer. "Why don't you look at yourself, CEO Feng? You'll know that the dog who'd been chasing other bitches around was you. Did you think that I didn't know that you are in love with Tang Moyu?" she taunted him, her tone filled with hatred.

"You loved her for a long time, right? But she didn't pay you one bit of attention and took your engagement indifferently. You wanted her for yourself and yet she ended up being your brother's woman. How was it, CEO Feng? Wasn't karma good to both of us? We are quite a pair."

She poured out the grievances and words she bottled up in her heart for a long time. Now that Feng Tianhua finally knew the truth about what she did to Tang Moyu and about her real identity, there was no reason for her to pretend any longer.

Feng Tianhua was startled by his wife's tone. He had never heard her speak like this before. Because of her anger, Xing Yiyue did not notice how his face darkened at every word she uttered.

"So you are finally showing your real self, huh? It must be hard for you to pretend all this time," he snapped back.

Now, as he stared at Xing Yiyue's twisted face, he suddenly thought of the time they were together. Her mannerisms, her smile, her gentleness— all of those were false! It turned out that he truly didn't know what kind of woman he chose over Tang Moyu.

Xing Yiyue's lips quivered, her tears continued to fall down but she said nothing in return. What else she could say to make him believe that she only did that because she loved him? The only person Feng Tianhua held dearly in his heart all this time was none other Tang Moyu.

It turned out, no matter how much she tried to win his heart completely, she would never be able to replace Tang Moyu in his heart.

Silence ensued between them as Feng Tianhua looked down at his wife.

"Xing Yiyue, once you give birth, let's part ways. You can go back to the sewer you came from and should never disturb me and my child ever again. I made up my mind; I don't want someone like you to be part of our lives from now on."

Xing Yiyue stared at him in shock. Wasn't it enough that she already lost everything and now he was kicking her into the curb?

"Y-you want us to divorce?" Although she already expected that this might happen, hearing it right from his lips was still painful for Xing Yiyue.

"No." Feng Tianhua turned his head on one side, refusing to meet her gaze. "There's no need to divorce. Our marriage isn't valid in the first place," he said in a low voice.

Thankfully, he listened to his mother to hold a ceremony first before registering their marriage. He had given Xing Yiyue a lavish wedding but he failed to register the said marriage in time. Perhaps, unconsciously, he knew that Tang Moyu was still the one he wanted although he couldn't let go of Xing Yiyue.

"What did you say?" Xing Yiyue felt her whole world crashing down, not knowing that this was incomparable to the pain and humiliation she brought Tang Moyu several years ago.

"Feng Tianhua! Do you even have a heart? To actually treat me this way? What do you take me for, huh? No matter what I've done in the past, it was all because I loved you and wanted to be with you! The person who loved you all this time was me! The person who accepted you and your shortcomings was also me! I gave you all that I have and yet you treat me this way! Why are you doing this to me?"
