Chapter 501 - Chapter 501 Chapter 499 She Learned the Truth of What Happened

Chapter 501: Chapter 499: She Learned the Truth of What Happened That Year Chapter 501: Chapter 499: She Learned the Truth of What Happened That Year The night before Wen Yuci and Fu Ziyuan’s wedding.

Fu Ziyuan had a designer bring her a white wedding dress.

When Wen Yuci put on the wedding dress, the designer looked at her with amazement, “Miss Wen, you truly look like a fairy descended to Earth!”

Wen Yuci looked at the stunningly beautiful woman in the mirror. She was indeed beautiful, but there was no light in her eyes.

She didn’t look like a happy woman about to step into marital bliss; instead, her brows and eyes were tinged with a faint sorrow.

“Miss Wen, Young Master Fu really cares about you. In fact, this wedding dress was personally designed by him.”

A bitter curve tugged at the corners of Wen Yuci’s lips.

In her youthful days, she had fantasized about her own wedding.

But at that time, the groom in her fantasy was Fu Yunshen, not Fu Ziyuan.

After the designer left, Mother Wen came in.

Seeing Wen Yuci dressed in the white wedding gown, Mother Wen grasped her cold hand, “Ci Ci, don’t blame your mother for forcing you to marry Ziyuan. Your father is gone, and the Wen family has fallen. It’s your fortune that Ziyuan is willing to marry you!”

“Forget completely about that man who caused your father’s death!”

Wen Yuci’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, “Mom, there’s nothing between him and me anymore, please don’t mention him again.”

“All right, Mom won’t mention it anymore.”

Mother Wen looked at the exquisitely beautiful Wen Yuci, thinking of her soon becoming the young wife of the Fu family, and a smile appeared on her face.

Although the wedding wasn’t a grand affair with many guests, Wen Yuci still woke up at five in the morning and began to change clothes and put on makeup.

About to become someone else’s bride, she felt not the slightest joy.

After changing into the wedding dress, the makeup artist came in with a makeup bag in hand.

Wen Yuci’s eyes were downcast; she didn’t spare a glance at the makeup artist.

The wedding was being held in haste, and the styling team was all arranged by Fu Ziyuan.

The makeup artist came to Wen Yuci and didn’t immediately start doing her makeup.

Wen Yuci felt a pair of eyes watching her, and she slowly lifted her lashes.

Seeing the woman before her, Wen Yuci was momentarily stunned.

The person who had come to do her makeup was Fu Yunshen’s wife?

Yan Huan not only possessed an angelic mixed-race face, but her demeanor was also rather impressive.

Facing Yan Huan, Wen Yuci felt embarrassment and awkwardness.

After all, she had once played a rather disgraceful role in her marriage to Fu Yunshen.

“You…” Wen Yuci hesitated.

Yan Huan looked at Wen Yuci, a faint smile curving her lips, “My name is Yan Huan, we’ve met before at the restaurant that day.”

Wen Yuci nodded, “Do you need something from me?”

“Yunshen is running a high fever and has been hospitalized. After encountering you that day at the western restaurant, he went racing on Mountain Road. Not only did his shoulder wound split open, but it also started raining heavily that night, and he walked on the road, getting drenched for nearly the entire night.”

Wen Yuci furrowed her brows.

Her hands clasped tightly on her knees, “You shouldn’t be telling me this.”

“He did it for you.”

“But you are his wife.”

Yan Huan’s eyes widened abruptly upon hearing this.

It took her a while to speak, surprised, “I am married, but my husband isn’t Yunshen at all!”

Wen Yuci, “…”

“But don’t you have a child together?”

Yan Huan rubbed her forehead, unaware of how Wen Yuci could have such a perception and misunderstanding, “Why would you think that?”

Wen Yuci recounted the occasion when she heard him and Yan Huan on a video call, and a child calling Fu Yunshen daddy.

“Those were children from the orphanage.”

Yan Huan had come this time without telling Fu Yunshen, having knocked out the makeup artist hired by Fu Ziyuan and taken their ID to sneak in.

There were some things she wanted Wen Yuci to know.

“You might not know me, but I have known you for a long time because back then, I too was fond of Yunshen.”

Yan Huan was of Chinese and American descent, with predominantly Eastern features but also a pair of deep blue eyes.

Before her parents emigrated to the U.S., their family lived next door to the Fu Family.

Actually, she had known Fu Yunshen for even longer than Wen Yuci had.

She couldn’t remember when she started liking Fu Yunshen. She had confessed to him, but at that time, he already had Wen Yuci in his heart.

She wasn’t the kind of person who would harm other girls just because she couldn’t have him for herself.

Just then, her parents decided to emigrate, so she went abroad with them.

But she would still come back to stay for a while during each winter and summer vacation.

One year, she came back and found out by accident that Fu Yunshen was not the Young Master Fu; he had been driven out of the Fu Family.

She saw with her own eyes Fu Ziyuan standing at the Fu Family’s main gate, humiliating Fu Yunshen. He threw out some banknotes, telling Yunshen to roll as far as he could!

Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu, who had raised Yunshen for over a decade, were also coldly jeering at the side.

Even as an outsider, it was painful for her to watch.

That day, she quietly followed him for a very long distance.

He sat alone on the beach, drinking despondently. She went over to keep him company and drank with him.

She had thought he would be in despair, but to her surprise, he said that even if the whole world abandoned him, he still had his Little Fairy.

He wanted to take his Little Fairy abroad with him, and he vowed to make something of himself, so that his Little Fairy could live a princess-like life again. When he eventually returned in triumph, he would apologize to Wen family’s parents.

That night, he imagined many beautiful futures.

In his slender phoenix eyes, a dazzling light shimmered.

She bought two plane tickets for him.

Originally, she thought he would successfully take his Little Fairy and leave the country, but instead, he was found barely alive, thrown down a cliff.

When she arrived with people to search for him, he was hanging from a tree branch, covered in blood, with a swollen face, on the brink of death.

Below the cliff, there was also the body of an elderly person.

Later, he found out that it was his biological grandmother.

He was rescued.

Upon learning that his grandmother was no longer alive, he dragged his battered body to the morgue.

To this day, she still remembers his cries of despair, anger, and sorrow.

It was the sound of a young man’s hope and spirit being crushed!

Latter, she found out that the people who had beaten him and his grandmother were sent by the Wen family’s parents.

The Wen family had learned that he was planning to elope with their daughter and had dealt him a vicious blow!

After taking care of his grandmother’s affairs, he still hadn’t given up on his Little Fairy. He still wanted to take her with him.

He finally waited for his Little Fairy, but when she saw him, she said words that completely drove him to despair.

She told him he was nothing but a penniless boy and that she would never like him again, much less elope with him!

She said he wasn’t worth a single finger of Fu Ziyuan, and ordered him to stay far away from her, to never show himself before her again!

She claimed she had never liked him–it was only the status of Young Master Fu she had been fond of!

She told him to stop dreaming of the frog getting the swan and recognize the gulf between them!

Those words deeply wounded him.

When he sat alone on the airplane, Yan Huan saw the whites of his eyes stained crimson.

He left in a mix of rage, frustration, despair, and pain.
