NOTE: THIS IS THE ORIGINAL CHAPTER. ENJOY~!
PHAK
A large sound was heard in the hall which echoed through the room.
Before Yang Sying could continue further, she felt a strong force on her cheek, which almost made her trip and land on the floor. As she landed on the floor, it took her time to realize what had happened.
Keeping her hand in the cheek that was stinging, Yang Sying bit her lip hard.
'She slapped me' Yang Sying processed what had happened.
Madam Li looked at the young woman who was on the floor, with disgust and disdain.
"I could not believe that you were the child that I had trusted for so long," Madam Li said, with a cold and sad voice. When seen closer, in the eyes that were filled with coldness, there were tears.
"A-Aunt Li, I am sorry. It was not my intention, I just did it because I loved him! Yes, only in the name of love!" Yang Sying said as she stood up.
"Shut up! Hearing the word, 'love' from your mouth, insults this word!" Madam Li lashed at the person standing in front of her.
Yang Sying could not believe what was happening to her, not only her truth came in front of everyone, she was slapped as well.
Biting her lip, that made it bleed, she started to whine loudly, instead of getting up, she crawled towards Madam Li's leg and holding it, she said, "I-I am sorry, Aunt Li! I did not do it intentionally. I just wanted to be loved, I had no bad intentions towards Brother Li or the Li family."
Madam Li snorted, at this point, she could not bear to let Yang Sying's voice into her ears. This much disgust, she would have never thought that she could hate someone to such an extent.
"I-I just want to be like Wang Yu Yan, I wanted to be her! Like she was loved by you all, I also wanted to have the same place as her in your hearts and in Brother Li's life. What is so wrong with this? I am sure if Wang Yu Yan would have been in my place she-,"
PHAK~
"SHUT UP! Just stop talking! Don't say Yu Yan's name by your filthy mouth, I have already hated you enough, don't make me hate you more! How could I never understand that your intentions were these! I never wanted you to replace Yu Yan! What do you think, that someone could replace Yu Yan?" Madam Li said, or shouted, the voice mixed with disdain, pain, and self-guilt. As she finished her last words, tears started to roll down her cheeks.
Li Wei as he heard Yang Sying, his aura became cold, he stared at Yang Sying, his eyes equal to that of the devil incarnation, or the devil himself.
Li Qiang sighed, he felt sorry for Wang Yu Yan, no one had taken her name in the Li Mansion from almost a year, it was because it evoked sad memories of the day she died. But he did not expect her name to be heard here in a situation like this.
As for Yang Sying, the slap made her once again land on the floor, the same place where she was earlier.
'B**CH' she mumbled, but it was pretty enough audible to everyone in the room, to Yang Sying's demise.
Listening to what Yang Sying had just said, Li Wei and Li Qiang could feel their blood boil, both for Wang Yu Yan's and Madam Li's insult. If not for Yang Sying was a woman standing there, they would have long made Yang Sying regret her every word.
Suddenly, something happened, whom I think no one would have thought. Madam Li grabbed Yang Sying's shoulder and gently made her stand on her feet. Yang Sying, along with the other members were dumbfounded at this.
Yang Sying was all ready for a slap, or so she thought, as Madam Li brought her hand towards her. But it was not a slap, rather Madam Li's hand gently caressed her cheek, which made Yang Sying her guard down.
While Li Qiang and Mu Shufen were looking at the scene in front of them with utmost shock, Li Wei had an expressionless face.
Yang Sying was surprised at Madam Li's actions, but this somewhat gave her confidence that Madam Li was convinced by her words, but for she said afterward shattered that confidence into a million pieces.
"Oh, dear Sying, at this moment, instead of anger, pity is what I am feeling for a child like you," Madam Li said.
Yang Sying's expression turned from that of the victory, showed her confusion.
Madam Li continued, "You got the ability to scheme this much, but this was not told to you by anyone, that love, my child, cannot be forced, nor you can forcefully take it from anyone. You need to earn, it by your kindness and deeds. I would have forgiven you for you what you had done, but for your intentions, I think even the thought of forgiving you would be the disgrace of my Yan Yan."
"Ha! Don't kid me. Disgrace? And that on Yan's accord? Who is she? Who am I? She is not even my equal," Yang Sying said, as her voice became hateful, full of hatred and evilness.
Madam Li wanted to say, but she knew that speaking something to someone like Yang Sying would be in vain. So, she decided to remain quiet and endure this moment till she could.
Seeing Madam Li's silence, it was as if Yang Sying had got more confidence to speak. She said, "She is nothing in front of me. And you, you are just a foolish old lady. I mean I even have some respect for that person standing there, but you, ha! You kept blindly trusting me."
"If you really loved that Yan Yan you should have never asked someone to take the place that I think should have been hers. But you were also driven by the greed for an heir, and that easily you asked me to be the fiance of Li Wei," Yang Sying said, laughing like a total manic.
Her laugh was filled with contentment, victory, and hatred.
Madam Li did not expect Yang Sying to say words like these, but these were something she could not deny. She had no words to back answer with, was it true? Is it true, that has not loved Yan Yan enough? Was it true that she was driven by the greed for an heir for her family?
"You are nothing different than the other old woman, who is greedy for a grandson. You also loved Yan Yan because she must have been a perfect mother for your grandson, isn't it? Huh?"
PHAK~
PHAK~
PHAK~
Sounds of continuous slapping were heard in the room, the echoing sound was satisfying to the ears.
Madam Li had decided to not say anything, but these words were something that she could never have imagined. She never loved Yan Yan for this reason. Her love for Yan Yan was pure, nothing because she felt like would have been a good mother and wife. She loved Yan Yan because of her kind heart, her nature. Everything. She liked Yan Yan for who she was.
Li Wei on the other hand was boiling with anger. He had managed to keep his anger inside himself under every circumstance, but this was something that would question his love for Wang Yu Yan.
His hands were balled in the fists, so much that the suit was started to tighten around the arm. He would have not done anything with Yang Sying because she was a woman, but now, it would torture his love whole life, if she did not take any actions.
Being hit back to back four times, Yang Sying has had enough. Her face started to sting even with a simple touch from her hand.
"You B**ch, how dare you?!" Yang Sying lifted her hand, with a force and bought it towards Madam Li to slap her, but her hand was caught by the guards that Li Wei had called on right time.
With two guards stopping her, Yang Sying felt as if she would go crazy if she did not hit the woman in front of her.
"Leave me! You both, leave me! Don't you know who am I? Leave me-" Yang Sying kept on shouting, and jerking her hands, like a wild horse, who was struggling to get out of the grip. Even the guards felt it hard to keep her in place.
"Enough" Li Wei announced, slowly coming in front of Yang Sying, and standing like a shield for Madam Li, he gripped Yang Sying's chin by his hand and said, "Shut the f***k up, woman. Or else I will forget that you were someone my mother had relations with," his voice deep and dark, making everyone cautious.
Yang Sying looked at Li Wei with eyes that were shouting for revenge.
"You will die!" she mumbled.
