Chapter 74: Die Due To Obesity

She paused for a moment before continuing. “She must have told you that she’s been living poorly in the Fang home, didn’t she? Qinghao, look, our Xinxin is really overweight. She is used to eating a lot. I was afraid that she would make herself sick, and I wanted her to lose some weight. I refused to give her allowance because I was worried she would spend it on food. She’s always been a greedy eater. She must have been unhappy with me and came to the Yu Ting Villa on a sulk. Looking at the Yu Ting Villa, I expect that the food and accommodation here is much better than what the Fang home can offer. Xinxin must have been attracted to the luxury of the Yu Ting Villa, and has grown to dislike the Fang home because of that.”

With her words, she easily provided a reasonable rationale, arguing that the Fang family had treated Fang Xinxin poorly but with good intentions in mind. She also subtly hinted that Fang Xinxin was thirsty for Bai Qinghao’s money and luxury.

In their previous life, upon hearing these words, Fang Xinxin had a.s.sumed her mother genuinely had good intentions in mind and wanted to help her lose weight.

She had a.s.sumed that Fang Lilan did not mean much by everything else she said.

Yet, right now, as Fang Xinxin took in her mother’s loving expression, she wondered why it sounded so fake.

“Mom, when did you ever tell me to lose weight?” Fang Xinxin asked her coldly.

“For the past few years, you’ve been saying that I’m too thin, thin to the point where it’s hard for you to watch.”

She pointed at herself. “Look at me. Previously, I was extremely overweight, yet you insisted I was too thin. You even became unhappy when I tried to eat less, and forced the food down my throat. Which of these actions indicate that you were trying to help me lose weight?”

Fang Lilan did not expect the usually weak Fang Xinxin to tear down her lies. Her expression became awkward immediately.

In the past, even if she was wronged or aggrieved, Fang Xinxin would only lower her head silently. She was really rebelling now!

Fang Xinxin had never been a fool. She just loved her mother too much.

As a result, she allowed her mother to treat her as she pleased. However, were Fang Lilan’s actions truly appropriate as a mother?

Bai Qinghao lifted his brows. His sharp gaze seemed to pierce right through Fang Lilan. “Are you trying to kill Fang Xinxin with obesity?”

His words were not spoken in a jest.

Based on Fang Xinxin’s words, it seemed like Fang Lilan was truly trying to fatten Fang Xinxin up, and slowly kill her.

Rage began to fill his heart.

Fang Lilan only received a single look, yet she felt herself being frozen alive. She could not help but tremble. “CEO Bai, what are you saying. How could I possibly wish for Xinxin to die? I’m usually flooded with work at the company and may have failed to communicate my intentions well. As a parent, I always hope to see my children a little rounder. It makes me feel that they are blessed with good luck. But Xinxin became this fat on her own. Her being able to gain so much weight also indicates that the Fang family has never treated her poorly. Isn’t that right, my daughter?”

She gave Fang Xinxin a loving look which also held a subtle warning.

“When it comes to some matters, the truth is indisputable.” Fang Xinxin sneered coldly.

With her current appearance, indeed, only a ghost would believe the Fang family treated her poorly.

But she would not expose them right now. Instead, she would bring Bai Qinghao to personally witness how the Fang family had ‘fattened’ her up.

As for her mother’s mention of her greed towards Bai Qinghao’s wealth…

He would learn about it, slowly.

She, Fang Xinxin, did not value any of his material possessions. In this lifetime, she would love him the way she treasured her own life.

Bai Qinghao appeared to be deep in thought.
