Chapter 506: You Killed the Man I Love Personally

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Fang Yusheng could not help but call Fang Pingjun. After knowing that Xu Pingfei had really joined their company and became a middle-aged actress, Fang Yusheng’s expression was really interesting.

The next day, they heard gossip from Aunt Jin.

It was said that not long after the television drama ended last night, Fang Pingjue received a call from a friend.

The other party asked him if his life had been bad recently.

Fang Pingjue had indeed been living poorly recently because of Chi Baoguang. However, he was very curious about how his old friend knew, so he asked more questions.

In the end, the friend said, “Brother, if your life is really miserable, you can tell us. Is it worth it for Pingfei to go out and show her face at such an old age to film and earn money? The key is her appearance… Sigh, is it because the salary for acting ugly is higher now?”

Fang Pingjue asked further. Only then did he know that Xu Pingfei actually dared to film a show behind his back without even telling him!

That night, Xu Pingfei was busy until 11 pm when she returned. She was wearing a dark green cloak and black tight pants. She hummed a song as she entered the house. She looked like a beautiful woman who was 35 or 36 years old!

She did not look like a fifty-year-old woman!

Her disobedience and beauty made the current Fang Pingjue angry.

“Where did you go!”

Fang Pingjue’s voice suddenly sounded in the dark hall, startling Xu Pingfei.

She covered her chest and stared in Fang Pingjue’s direction. She asked in a low voice, “Pingjue?”

Fang Pingjue snorted.

Xu Pingfei then turned on the lights in the house.

Fang Pingjue was sitting there in his pajamas with a gloomy expression, as if he was about to get angry. She guessed that perhaps he had found out about what she had done. She smiled lightly and said to Fang Pingjue obsequiously, “Pingjue, are you angry?”

“You went out to film behind my back?”

“Yes.” Xu Pingfei did not plan to keep it a secret, nor could she.

Fang Pingjue snorted. “What’s your status! Why are you degrading yourself by being an actress?”

Upon hearing the word ‘degrading’, the smile on Xu Pingfei’s face disappeared.

Her voice turned cold as well. “Are you saying that I’m degrading myself by filming a show?”

“Aren’t you? If others want you to laugh, you laugh. If they want you to cry, you cry. If this isn’t degrading yourself, what is it!” Thinking of the ugly pictures he had seen online of Xu Pingfei acting as Qiu Qianchi, he was so angry that he trembled.

“You’re Fang Pingjue’s woman and the mistress of the Fang family. You’re embarrassing me by pretending to be ugly like this! You’re too disappointing!”

Xu Pingfei only glanced at him indifferently.

Her calm and composed look made Fang Pingjue feel stifled. “What’s with that look?”

Xu Pingfei sat down on the sofa beside Fang Pingjue. She crossed her legs and placed them on the coffee table. She said to Fang Pingjue, “I’ve never been a woman who is unfaithful to her husband. I’m not like Lisa. I don’t have such a good temperament.”

“Look, I’m just a normal person. When I was young, I smoked and cursed. Look at me, I’m someone who will cross my legs when I’m tired.” She was not perfect. She was not born with a good temperament. She was forced to be like this.

Fang Pingjue looked at her legs that were crossed on the coffee table and frowned.

It was as if he was meeting Xu Pingfei for the first time.

The person in front of him was extremely unfamiliar.

“After so many years, I’ve been tired of pretending to be gentle and maternal. I’m also tired of being a stepmother.” Xu Pingfei simply stopped talking. She said, “I still have to continue acting. If you can’t accept it, let’s have a divorce.”

The word divorce was like a storm, causing Fang Pingjue’s expression to change drastically.

“What did you say?”

“I said, if you think I’ve embarrassed you, then divorce me.” Xu Pingfei saw the exposed look in Fang Pingjue’s eyes and completely gave up. “Look, even if I said divorce, you only cared about your face and won’t think about our relationship.”

“You don’t love me.” Xu Pingfei completely recognized reality. “What you love is the goddess that you’ve outlined in your heart. It’s the young, beautiful, and elegant Lisa from more than thirty years ago.” Even the current Lisa, who had wrinkles and was no longer young, was not his favorite.

Xu Pingfei knew that Fang Pingjue was a selfish and arrogant person.

Until now, he had yet to see the situation clearly.

She said, “Fang Pingjue, our marriage has lasted until now. It’s not you who’s giving me charity, but me who’s pitying you.”

Fang Pingjue was stunned and wanted to refute her words.

However, when he opened his mouth, he realized that compared to Xu Pingfei, he was indeed the one being pitied. Xu Pingfei was still beautiful and young, while he was old and ashen. More importantly, his body was not even complete.

Fang Pingjue’s fierce aura instantly disappeared.

He sat there and looked down at his lost leg. He could not stop smiling bitterly. “Sure, sure. Divorce!”

Xu Pingfei’s gaze was complicated.

She could not bear to see him like this.

She was just saying it out of anger. Couldn’t he soften his stance?

Fang Pingjue suddenly said, “All these years, you’ve never loved me. You married me only for the benefit of your family. Xu Pingfei, you’re the ruthless one!”

Xu Pingfei smiled.

Her smile was bleak. “Fang Pingjue, you have to touch your conscience when you talk.”

Fang Pingjue sneered. He did not think that he had said anything wrong.

Xu Pingfei asked, “Don’t you know if I’ve loved you or not?”

“I don’t love you? When Qingqing slit her wrist and almost lost her life, I should have abandoned you! I don’t love you? Then after you lost a leg, I could have left you alone! I don’t love you? When you were imprisoned at home, and when you were treated like a slave by Chi Baoguang… I could have been a different person. I could have mocked you and ignored you!”

“But I didn’t! All these years, I’ve been by your side, giving birth to your children. For you, I raised that ingrate, Fang Mu, until he became an adult. For you, I didn’t have the heart to take care of Fang Yusheng! For you, I’m even raising Fang Mu’s child now! For you, I even had to hide my acting from you!”

“If you still think that I don’t love you after doing this, then I have nothing to say. I can’t give you the love that you, Fang Pingjue, want!”

Fang Pingjue listened in a daze, already shocked.

Xu Pingfei suddenly said, “I once entered your study room out of curiosity and saw Lisa’s photo hanging on the wall. Doesn’t my heart ache? But for you and for this family, I can only pretend not to know…” Xu Pingfei’s heart completely turned cold.

She stood up. Before going upstairs, she said to Fang Pingjue with her back facing him—

“I once loved a man. You killed him yourself.”

Fang Pingjue was suddenly furious. He roared in a low voice and asked her, “Who is it!”

She said, “Fang Pingjue.”

With that, Xu Pingfei ran upstairs.

Fang Pingjue was so shocked that he stood rooted to the ground.

At this moment, he thought of a few years ago, on a night before his leg broke. Xu Pingfei sat in front of the dressing mirror and asked him if he had loved her.

At that time, he did not answer and chose to remain silent.

Xu Pingfei said spitefully, “I don’t love you either.”

However, the person who said that she did not love him had admitted her love for him tonight.
