Mr. Yuan's Dilemma: Can't Help Falling In Love With You Chapter 329 - I'd Rather Kill Myself Than Hurt You

This incident was destined to be the most sensational news in Luo Hai this year.

It was also the biggest scandal!

From the sidelines, Xue Meiwei heard everything clearly. She had known that Yuan Zhe had fooled around with the Wen Family’s daughter at that time. That woman came to their house when she discovered that she was pregnant. After that, the Old Mistress and Yuan Tangzhong took responsibility by forcing Yuan Zhe to marry Wen Ya.

She had never expected that it was actually a scandalous affair!

That man and his son had messed around with the same woman. She was betrayed twice over.

Her husband had betrayed her, and so had her son…

“You shameless man!”

Xue Meiwei responded by rus.h.i.+ng on stage immediately. She did not care about anyone else’s opinions. She had lost all sense of reason and repeatedly hit Yuan Tangzhong. She had completely abandoned her elegant demeanor as a n.o.ble lady.

Yuan Tangzhong blocked off her blows. He wailed frantically, “You stupid woman. I’ll explain… I’ll explain when we get home…”

“You’re disgusting! You even forced our son to marry that woman…”

Xue Meiwei realized that she was the only person in this household who was left in the dark. She could not help herself from being blinded by rage.

“Don’t listen to his lies. I only slept with her once. How could she get pregnant…”

The crowd burst into an uproar.

Xue Meiwei murmured, “You… You really… I’ve had it with you.” She rushed forward and scratched her husband while shrieking. It was a chaotic scene.

Yuan Tangzhong was consumed by anxiety when he realized that he had blurted out a secret. Xue Meiwei attacked him while the crowd gossiped below the stage. The man was normally an arrogant person who towered over others, but he suddenly felt as though he had fallen into a bottomless pit…

He caught a glimpse of Yuan Xuan’s unaffected gaze and indifferent expression while he was panicking. He noticed that neither the security personnel nor his servants came to his aid during this crisis. Even his comrades from political circles ignored him. Suddenly, he realized what was going on.

“You ungrateful boy! You’ve finally made your move…”

Suddenly, Yuan Tangzhong spat out a mouthful of blood that splattered in the distance!

His gaze was filled with fury and rage when he raised his head. He yelled, “I should’ve gotten rid of you a long time ago… You wouldn’t have been able to see me like this today…”

Everyone’s eyes darted toward Yuan Xuan when Yuan Tangzhong’s gaze landed on him.

The young successor was another extremely powerful individual in the Yuan Family Mansion. He was currently glaring at his uncle coldly.

Yuan Tangzhong had a glorious past, but he was now in a miserable position.

This powerful man had suffered a heavy blow in front of the young and old generations of Luo Hai’s aristocratic families, and even his own friends and relatives. He widened his eyes and took several steps backwards. Suddenly, he tripped and tumbled painfully off the stage.

The stage was not very high, it was less than half a meter tall. It was merely two platforms that were stacked on top of each other.

However, Yuan Tangzhong did not get up immediately after he fell. He laid there face-down, his body did not make a single movement.

Xue Meiwei stood on the sidelines in a daze. When she saw her husband like this, she stopped being unreasonable and abandoned her desire to make a scene. She shrieked, “Help! The Old Master… The Old Master has fainted!”

The Old Mistress stared blankly and remained frozen in place for a long time. She returned to her senses when she heard her daughter-in-law shouting. She frantically grabbed Yuan Tangshuo. “Go and check on your brother quickly…”

Yuan Tangshuo did not react to the unexpected incident immediately. He knew that Yuan Xuan was not on good terms with his second uncle, but he had never expected that the situation would escalate to this extent.

Yuan Tangshuo rushed over and held Yuan Tangzhong. At the moment, the man’s expression was blank while his gaze was focused on one spot. His mind seemed fuzzy and his breathing was uneven.

“Second brother!” Naturally, Yuan Tangshuo understood that his brother had suffered a stroke.

He yelled loudly, but Yuan Tangzhong did not react at all.

Xue Meiwei had trouble breathing while she stood on the side. She deeply regretted her previous actions.

“Tangzhong, this can’t be happening. What am I going to do if you die…”

Xue Meiwei wept mournfully.

The guests who were watching the situation unfold quickly took their cellphones out and called the ambulance.

It was no surprise that the crowd was still stunned. After all, this turn of events had occurred within a short span of ten minutes.

Everyone only realized the severity of the situation when Yuan Tangzhong fell and landed head-first below the stage.

Yuan Tian rushed over. She ignored the fact that she was wearing a c.o.c.ktail dress and simply bent down. She opened Yuan Tangzhong’s eyelids before she turned to her father and said, “Father, second uncle had a stroke. Let’s send him to the hospital quickly!”

The ambulance arrived in a flash. They were lucky that the Military Hospital was very close to the area.

Most of the guests were cleared out from the venue shortly before after Yuan Tangzhong was taken away. Wen Ya became clear-headed after Mu Chenyan took care of her.

Wen Ya laid on the bed in the lounge. Her entire body was freezing despite being covered by a blanket.

Wen Ya shuddered. Mu Chenyan ran over the moment she noticed. Mu Chenyan’s eyes were slightly swollen and her voice was hoa.r.s.e. She asked, “How do you feel?”

Wen Ya wanted to say, “I feel like dying!”

However, she swallowed her words just as they were about to leave her mouth.

She had no right to die. She was merely a walking corpse now.

“Wen Ya, don’t be afraid. You’re the victim in this situation. You have to stay strong even if the Yuan Family doesn’t give you justice. I’ll fight for you!”

Mu Chenyan choked back sobs as she spoke.

The Yuan Family had tyrannized her. These people were truly immoral.

Mu Chenyan thought of the injustices that she and Wen Ya faced, but she had nowhere to vent her anger. She could not stop hating the Yuan Family when she realized their true nature. They were essentially using their power to abuse others.

Wen Ya shut her eyes as tears trickled down their corners. Mu Chenyan’s palm was cold and completely devoid of warmth when she held her hand.

“Chenyan, thank you… But getting justice won’t change anything. How am I going to keep living and face the rest of the world?”

Wen Ya was clearly hiding a lot of grief while she cried. Mu Chenyan’s heart shattered when she saw this.

She stroked Wen Ya’s forehead and murmured, “Yuan Tangzhong was just taken to the hospital because he suffered a stroke. Additionally, Yuan Zhe is dead! The villains have been punished. Wen Ya, you must stay strong. None of this is your fault!”

Wen Ya forced a smile when she heard this conclusion. She mumbled dispiritedly, “I knew long ago that Yuan Zhe wasn’t the father of that child…”

“I saw Yuan Zhe’s medical checkup report by accident. His sperm count was very low. I did some research online and discovered that it was difficult to get pregnant in situations like these. Unfortunately, Yuan Zhe was an arrogant man who never considered that an issue…”

A miserable smirk appeared on Wen Ya’s face when she said that. Mu Chenyan was shocked. She a.s.sumed that Wen Ya had only discovered today that Yuan Zhe had not fathered her child.

Shadows of hatred stirred in the bottom of Wen Ya’s heart. She continued, “Yuan Tangzhong probably knew about Yuan Zhe’s health problems beforehand. That’s why… He… Forced Yuan Zhe to marry me and keep the baby…”

Wen Ya was overwhelmed by a feeling of nausea. Her stomach turned every time she recalled this issue.

Wen Ya shoved Mu Chenyan away before she crouched on the ground and heaved. This was a torturous mental illness.

Mu Chenyan was frightened. She held Wen Ya’s shoulders tightly and tearfully said, “It’s all over. Your nightmare has ended!”

After much difficulty, Wen Ya managed to calm down. She leaned against the side of the bed and got up. A strange enlightened look suddenly appeared on her deathly pale face.

“My nightmare has ended, but the pain still remains. Chenyan, do you think that the Yuan Family’s second son is completely ruined?”

Wen Ya seemed to be antic.i.p.ating something. Mu Chenyan knew that Wen Ya wanted her to personally confirm this matter.

Mu Chenyan nodded. She replied, “Yes.”

Wen Ya was momentarily distracted. Suddenly, she closed her eyes. “I’ve seen the ending that I yearned for!”

Mu Chenyan did not know what she meant.

Unexpectedly, Wen Ya’s head smashed against the wall!

Mu Chenyan’s heart was filled with sorrow when she saw that Wen Ya was determined to die while she was right next to her. She instinctively reached out her hand to desperately try and pull Wen Ya back.

Mu Chenyan tried to pull her backwards, but Wen Ya’s head violently bashed against the wall…

Mu Chenyan dragged her exhausted body back home.

She looked around miserably. Her heart was filled with sorrow.

Wen Ya had barely escaped the clutches of death, but her beautiful forehead was marred by five st.i.tches.

Mu Chenyan’s emotions had been deeply stirred when she witnessed her old friend’s suffering.

She did not sleep until Yuan Xuan returned at night.

The man’s body was chilly. He went to take a shower and change his clothes before he crawled into bed. Yuan Xuan sighed in relief when he held the delicate and beautiful woman in his arms.

Mu Chenyan opened her eyes when she felt the man’s breath against her back. She got up and turned on the table lamp before she glared angrily at him.

Yuan Xuan’s strategy had certainly turned out well!

“Why aren’t you asleep?” Yuan Xuan reached out to pull her toward him. However, he had not expected that Mu Chenyan would push his hand away and avoid his affections.

The woman muttered, “Yuan Xuan, you gave Wen Youquan that information!”

Mu Chenyan stated this as a matter of fact. She was not asking him a question.

Wen Youquan was a greedy and shameless man by nature. He would not have waited until today if he had that information all this time. He would surely have used it to threaten the Yuan Family’s second son long ago.

Everything had been carefully planned over the course of three to four years. As this spanned over such a long period of time, it was enough to prove that Yuan Xuan had a dark and terribly cunning mind.

He made the necessary preparations, concealed his strength, and bided his time for several years so that he could ensure Yuan Tangzhong’s downfall. However, Mu Chenyan had not expected that he would completely overlook Wen Ya’s fate when both the Yuan Family’s second son and the Wen Family were in the palm of his hand.

“Would you be able to live with yourself if Wen Ya had died tonight?”

Mu Chenyan openly blamed him.

Yuan Xuan did not try to lie to her. Traces of leftover bloodl.u.s.t flashed in his dark pupils. Suddenly, he reached out and embraced Mu Chenyan before he pushed her down against the large bed.

“Our fate is predestined. I merely used the truth to my advantage. Wen Ya’s fate would have remained the same even if tonight’s incident didn’t occur. I wasn’t the one who made her suffer!”

Mu Chenyan struggled vigorously when she heard this, but the man was holding both of her arms down. She glared at Yuan Xuan’s face that was inches from her own. He suddenly seemed unfamiliar and cold-blooded.

“Let go!”

Yuan Xuan tightened his grip. He pressed his body against the woman’s supple and sweet-smelling skin. Their bodies rubbed against each other as she frantically struggled. Yuan Xuan gulped before his hoa.r.s.e voice grew deeper.

“Little Chenyan, I know that you feel sorry for Wen Ya, but I’m just being honest. I’m not the cause of her suffering. However, I’ll admit that I used this conclusion to benefit myself. I’ll compensate Wen Ya in full for everything that the Yuan Family owes her. Please don’t be angry, okay?”

Mu Chenyan turned her face away. She choked back sobs and murmured, “I know that you weren’t the one who harmed her, but I can’t just let this go…”

Mu Chenyan was speechless at the thought of Wen Ya lying in the hospital.

Yuan Xuan pressed his forehead against hers while the tips of their noses touched. “You and I are mere mortals. We can’t relieve anyone of their suffering. The only person that I’ve disappointed right now is you. I’m going to spend the rest of my life taking good care of you!”

Yuan Xuan’s breath scrambled Mu Chenyan’s thoughts. When she moved her arms, Yuan Xuan realized that he was holding her too tightly. He hurriedly loosened his grip.

Mu Chenyan’s arms were wrapped around his neck. Yuan Xuan’s entire body trembled when she pressed her warm lips against his Adam’s apple and collarbone. He lowered his head and met her starry eyes.

“Yuan Xuan, you’re too cruel to your enemies. What would you do if I became your enemy one day…”

“I’d rather kill myself than hurt you!”
