Chapter 105: Chapter 105: Despair
Despite using drugs, each time was like completing a task, without any emotion, just like two puppets...
This task-like cohabitation continued for two months, and once Cheng Jue confirmed her pregnancy, the two never shared a bed again.
After the child was born, whenever Cheng Jue saw the child, she would think of the scenes of her flattering herself, feeling utterly disgusted.
She often saw Wen Xiaowen in the Wen Family’s garden, lovingly holding the child, holding Bai Ruoqing.
With each look, her jealousy grew a bit more.
Along with it, her hatred for Bai Ruoqing increased. Why did she get to enjoy Wen Xiaowen’s affection?
The one who should be cherished was obviously herself!
Cheng Jue slowly descended into madness, to the point where every time she saw the child, she would blame it, wondering why it wasn’t the child between her and Wen Xiaowen?
Why did she have to have relations with Wen Xiaozheng and give birth to this child...
Because of Cheng Jue’s madness, Wen Jitai’s growth was filled with sadness.
The Wen Family’s main branch and second branch lived like this in the old mansion for several years.
Until the birth of Wen Lan.
From the moment she found out Bai Ruoqing gave birth to a daughter, Cheng Jue crazily thought of destroying Bai Ruoqing’s daughter, making both Bai Ruoqing and her daughter suffer immensely...
However, after years of honing her mind, Cheng Jue no longer acted rashly.
She quietly waited...
Watching Bai Ruoqing raise Wen Lan so well, making her as lovable as Bai Ruoqing herself.
The downfall of someone outstanding is all the more painful, isn’t it?
Cheng Jue waited until Wen Lan turned eighteen.
Cheng Jue set up Wen Lan with the most notorious third master of the Fang Family in B City.
That Fang Family third master, Fang Haiqiang, who sees women as playthings, indulging in drinking, gambling, and debauchery.
Cheng Jue announced the news, watching Bai Ruoqing and Wen Lan’s faces turn pale, and the furious expressions of Wen Xiaowen and the two brothers Wen Jishan, she felt a sense of revenge for the first time.
From the Wen Family’s second branch’s reaction, Cheng Jue finally knew where their weakness lay.
From then on, Cheng Jue focused on how to make Wen Lan suffer more.
Only if Wen Lan suffered would the Wen Family’s second branch suffer.
At this point, Cheng Jue paused, took a small sip of tea from the cup on the table, and Xiao Li, hearing this, looked very upset.
This old woman is truly mad!
After finishing a small cup of tea, Cheng Jue put down the cup, picked up a small teapot beside her, poured tea as she spoke, "Do you know what I did to your mother later?"
Xiao Li stared intently at Cheng Jue without asking further, knowing Cheng Jue would continue...
She was brought here today, told all this, to feel pain from her mother’s suffering.
If that was the case, she would spare no detail.
Cheng Jue indeed had no intention of hiding anything from Xiao Li; she wanted Xiao Li to know and be in unbearable pain.
So after asking Xiao Li, without waiting for a response, she continued, "At first, I only let Fang Haiqiang harass your mother, after all, your mom was his fiancée..."
In the beginning, Cheng Jue merely gave Fang Haiqiang a hint: Wen Lan was already his.
Wen Lan, originally beautiful, with a temperament akin to Bai Ruoqing, was enough to become many men’s dream girl.
A man like Fang Haiqiang, who moved through countless women, had never met Wen Lan before, as she never attended parties or left school, so Fang Haiqiang could not see her anywhere.
But now that he had seen her, how could he not be captivated?
After seeing Wen Lan on her birthday, Fang Haiqiang immediately started to feel restless. However, Wen Lan was still a member of the Wen Family, so he dared not act recklessly and only vented his frustration elsewhere...
But when Cheng Jue gave him the signal to act against Wen Lan, Fang Haiqiang acted immediately.
However, after the engagement, when Wen Lan understood Fang Haiqiang’s true nature, she guarded against him, staying at school and never going out, ensuring that Wen Xiaowen would pick her up when needed.
Wen Xiaowen being Wen Lan’s father, no matter how reckless Fang Haiqiang was, couldn’t take her away in front of her father!
Thus, Wen Lan was able to complete her studies peacefully. In her last year of college, with Fang Haiqiang weary of monitoring her, he stopped caring since Wen Lan would eventually be his anyway.
Once Fang Haiqiang’s men withdrew, Wen Lan dared to leave campus and eventually met Xiao Zhennan, with whom she quickly fell in love...
With someone she loved, Wen Lan refused to marry Fang Haiqiang.
But even though she was unwilling, she couldn’t help it. She told Bai Ruoqing she was in love with someone else, and Bai Ruoqing only looked at her with pain and helplessness.
While Wen Xiaowen remained silent, Wen Lan then understood the hardship the second branch was in, and she felt she had no choice but to marry.
In the end, Wen Lan met with Xiao Zhennan, giving him her most cherished first time.
After that, she harshly broke up with Xiao Zhennan, fearing if the Wen Family’s main branch found out, it would bring trouble to him.
However, what Wen Lan didn’t know was that upon returning to the Wen Family, a nightmare awaited her.
It turned out Cheng Jue had learned that she didn’t want to marry Fang Haiqiang, and Cheng Jue directly brought Fang Haiqiang to the Wen Family. As soon as Wen Lan returned, she was dragged into the room by Fang Haiqiang.
Fang Haiqiang, after dragging Wen Lan into the room, ripped her clothes off, only to see the marks on her neck and shoulders...
Having experienced countless women, the Fang Family third master instantly understood, and furiously shoved the drugs he had prepared into her mouth, saying, "I thought you were so noble, turns out you’re just a slut..."
Wen Lan was terrified when she was dragged into the room by the Fang Family third master and resisted when her clothes were torn, even tried to end her own life by hitting her head against the wall.
But though she bled, she remained very much alive and painfully conscious, feeling a burning sensation rising in her abdomen...
Knowing what that meant, Wen Lan understood her life would soon be engulfed in darkness.
But what could she do?
The drug had taken effect, leaving her powerless and unable to die, forced to watch as Fang Haiqiang began undressing in front of her.
Wen Lan closed her eyes in despair.
Yet, just as Fang Haiqiang was removing the last piece of clothing, the door burst open, and Wen Jishan and Wen Jiliang rushed in...
Wen Jiliang wrapped Wen Lan in a sheet, while Wen Jishan, filled with rage, punched Fang Haiqiang...
