Rebirth of an abandoned woman

69

Shi Fengju left and did not return until dusk.

At Yuhe Building located in Qingzhou's commercial center, Shi Fengju was drinking with a man wearing a dark jade robe in a stylish pavilion on the third floor. That man was tall with pretty eyes and trimmed eyebrows, and had a smile on his face as he sat opposite of Shi Fengju. That man was Zhuang Weixian.

It might have been destiny that their mothers never lived in harmony with each other, but for these two, they were like good brothers. This time around when Shi Fengju left on a business trip, if not for Mistress Zhuang forcing him to remain for the arranged date she had prepared, Zhuang Weixian would have definitely followed along with the trip like the years before.

"What? Haven't you drank enough yesterday? Still want to drink! You aren't like that before ah, is it because your wish is almost fulfilled and you're extremely happy about it?" Zhuang Weixian laughed and patted the table before sighing, "Seems it's not a lie that a person becomes high in spirits when involved in a joyous event!"

His mind subconsciously flashed a figure; refined and elegant, light and gentle, that inexpressible resilience, and that mesmerizing hands as it used the abacus!

Such a woman, to think she would have to endure such hardships to be destined to spend her life with someone who never had her in his heart. Her life was almost predictable, destined to sit quietly in a beautiful cage as time gently passes until the fresh flowers withered and so will she.

"Joyous event?" Shi Fengju was already slightly drunk and he smiled, "What joyous event? Hm? The date your mother arranged? Which girl is it ah?"

"What has it got to do with me!" Zhuang Weixian remained cheerful as he rolled his eyes, "Isn't your childhood cousin about to marry in?"

"Cousin? Fang'er?" Shi Fengju gazed blankly before a ridiculous smile emerged on his face, "If you hadn't said it, I had almost forgotten! Yes ah, her wish is almost fulfilled!"

"I think you're really drunk, so drunk that you're not yourself anymore!" Zhuang Weixian said with certainty. "Otherwise, it'll be that you're experiencing too much joy until you're speaking nonsense!"

Shi Fengju just shook his head and played the jade cup while admiring its fine engravings.

Zhuang Weixian finally realized that something was not right. Curious, he asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Shi Fengju slowly placed the cup down before looking at Zhuang Weixian in the eye, "You're also quite familiar with Fangzi. Tell me, what do you think of her?"

"What?"

Shi Fengju waved his hand and smiled, "We're brothers. When the doors are closed, there's nothing we can't say! Don't lie to me, just tell me, what kind of person do you think she is?"

How should he put it? Zhuang Weixian remained confused. Even though they were brothers, but criticizing the woman of his brother in front of his presence was ungentlemanly. Only a fool will answer!

Moreover, this dude was definitely drunk and was speaking incoherently. Once he becomes sober, he would definitely find trouble for him. When that happens, there will be no place for him to hide!

Seeing that he remained silent, Shi Fengju chuckled and asked again, "Then if I were to let you marry her as your wife, will you do so?"

"I don't want to!" That immediately scared Zhuang Weixian and he blurted out. His mind subconsciously flashed the image of an elegant figure and his heart felt a sense of unfairness as he stared at Shi Fengju. "Don't you already have a wife? So your cousin will become the second?"
