Chapter 612 - Regrets (2)
However, who would have thought that Tang Moyu would end up being Feng Tianyi's wife in the end? That the man who was supposed to ruin the empress ended up as her lover? All the plans Zhang Wuying had in mind for a long time easily went down the drain when Xing Yiyue showed up and seduced Feng Tianhua.
Zhang Wuying had no choice but to kick Tang Moyu out of the Tang family. She coerced Elder Tang to keep their distance away from the empress so they wouldn't be on Feng Tianhua's bad side, the receiving end of his wrath.
It was just a pity that the exquisite doll she raised for a long time was ruined by Xing Yiyue. Tang Moyu was nothing but a damaged good in Zhang Wuying's eyes, which held no value.
Perhaps, it was for the better that Tang Moyu left the country and stayed out of their lives. Just seeing her face was a constant reminder of Yan Qiuyu who managed to seduce her husband until his last breath.
"Madam… do you need something from me?" Xing Yiyue wanted to disappear right then, allowing the ground to swallow her whole as long as she could hide herself from Zhang Wuying's eyes. Somehow, her instincts were telling her that this woman was more dangerous than Wang Ruoxi.
"No. I don't think so," Zhang Wuying said in response, "You don't have any use for me." She spoke straightforwardly before returning her attention back to Wang Ruoxi. "I was merely curious as to what kind of woman Tianhua married that he was willing to abandon my daughter like that."
Those who didn't know Zhang Wuying… they might have misunderstood that she was concerned about Tang Moyu. However, it was the opposite. If anything, there's nothing else that could make her happy but to see the empress in despair, begging on her knees once again.
The sight of her pitiful face as she begged on her knees years ago was still imprinted on Zhang Wuying's mind. Zhang Wuying had never thought that there would be a day she would see her husband's illegitimate daughter in such a predicament.
That was before because the Tang Moyu now seemed to have turned over a new leaf. She grew some backbone over the years of her exile and knew how to turn the situation in her favor. So far from the dumb, beautiful flower vase that she was… that wanted nothing but to earn her step-mother's approval and affection.
If she had known that her plans would be derailed, Zhang Wuying should have married off Tang Moyu the moment she graduated from the university. However, alas, she could only regret that she had absolutely lost her control over the empress. It wouldn't be easy to destroy Tang Moyu now that she had Feng Tianyi by her side.
Xing Yiyue's face turned from white to red as complex emotions flashed across her eyes. This was the kind of insult she despised to receive the most. Not only Zhang Wuying was reminding her that she was nothing compared to Tang Moyu but also demeaning her worth as Feng Tianhua's wife.
Did this old woman summon her here just humiliated her? Why was Wang Ruoxi keeping her silence? However, shouldn't she know by now that Wang Ruoxi also didn't favor her?
Tears stung her eyes, her hands gripping the skirt of her dress tightly as she lowered her head. No matter if she was living in a lavish house like this or wearing designer clothes she longed to have, some people could only see her misgivings and her past.
What else should she do to change their opinion of her? So what if she wronged Tang Moyu? Did it mean that she had to pay for these sins her whole life? Did she not deserve to have happiness with her husband?
"Ah, Wuying. Please don't upset our Little Yue. She's pregnant with Tianhua's child now." She heard Wang Ruoxi said, reminding her of her delicate condition.
Ah, right. How could she forget that she was pregnant? Xing Yiyue unconsciously rubbed her still flat stomach. She was ten weeks along, and her bump was still unnoticeable.
"Oh? She's pregnant?" Zhang Wuying lowered her cup and glanced at Xing Yiyue's pale complexion. "No wonder she looks sick."
"It took them over six years to conceive a child. You don't know how happy Tianhua is when he finds out she's pregnant." Wang Ruoxi chuckled. "This is why Yue'er decided to lie low from show business for now."
She initially thought that this dumb girl was a barren woman who couldn't bear a child… but to think that she'd end up pregnant now? Ah, it was better than nothing. The important thing was for her to give birth to an heir.
Their peaceful conversation came to a halt when a maid came rushing towards Wang Ruoxi. Her face was ghastly pale as if she had just seen a ghost outside.
"Madam, we have a guest. Your presence is needed." She announced, not wasting time. It would be better if Wang Ruoxi showed up at once.
Wang Ruoxi frowned. She wasn't expecting other guests today except for Zhang Wuying. Just who would dare to visit her at this time unannounced?
"Who is it?" she asked curiously. If it was one of those board directors seeking after her son, she had enough of it. Those old fools knew better not to trouble her with their issues at the company.
"I-It's the Master, Madam," the maid said nervously, "Master Feng came together with his wife…" Her words trailed off as she remembered Zhang Wuying being here.
"What?" Wang Ruoxi stood up, knocking her seat off the ground in shock.
Why would Feng Tianyi and Tang Moyu show up at this time? Wang Ruoxi was sure that Feng Tianyi was up to no good. The man didn't bother coming here for years and never considered her as part of the Feng family… so why now?
