Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1535 Thinking

Fang Zilan had a plan in mind when she heard this. She looked up at Fang Lihui and said, "I admit that what Mr. Fang said makes sense. A beautiful woman can always find a way to make a living if she learns something. However, Miss Cong comes from a peasant family. I'm afraid she can't learn anything except working every day. What's more, even if Miss Cong learns something, it may not change the current situation."

Fang Lihui put away his folding fan and turned to look at Fang Zilan. Her eyes were a mixture of determination and loneliness, shining brightly.

She said seriously, "A person's destiny cannot be changed simply by learning something. If you compare destiny to an opponent, you must move forward step by step. The further you go, the more chances you have to compete with it. Learning something is good, but it only increases your chances of winning and cannot completely determine the final outcome."

As she spoke, she suddenly sighed, "Life is not easy. Miss Cong's situation has already determined her identity as a weak person. Under this identity, her beauty is no longer an asset, but instead becomes the reason for being fought over. A man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure. I think Mr. Fang knows this truth."

Fang Lihui was slightly stunned, "Is Master Fang speaking for her?"

"I'm not speaking for her." Fang Zilan put her hand on Cong Rong's shoulder and said firmly, "I just believe her."

Cong Rong turned her head in disbelief and stared at the person in front of her, her eyes full of surprise. "Master Fang, are you willing to believe me?"

Fang Zilan nodded. "However, my belief in you is one thing, but having evidence to prove that the baby in your belly is indeed Fang Yuhan's flesh and blood is another. If you don't have evidence, I can't help you."

"Master Fang!" Fang Lihui's voice was filled with hidden anger. Fang Zilan stood up and looked him straight in the eyes, and asked coldly, "Master Fang, are you unwilling to face the truth?"

"Even if what she said is true, let alone Madam Yuhan, the daughter of the Wang family, who is about to give birth, how will she react if she knows about this. Just look at her father, the new Duke of Beiguo, and her uncle, who is an official in the capital. Will they let the Fang family have an easy time?" Fang Lihui tightly grasped the folding fan in his palm, and his bony hands trembled slightly. "Master Fang, no matter what the truth is, I can't give her this fairness, let alone dare to give it to her."

"I won't let Mr. Fang use the entire Fang family to exchange for this fairness." Fang Zilan's expression was very calm, but the look in her eyes was indescribably firm. "But if the truth is like this, then no one can erase it."

Fang Lihui lowered his head and remained silent. Fang Zilan looked at Cong Rong and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"

"Yes." Cong Rong nodded hurriedly, then carefully took out a jade pendant from her arms, "This was given to me by Fang Yuhan."

Fang Zilan took the jade pendant and felt that it looked familiar. She looked at it over and over again, and then she heard Fang Lihui whisper, "It's Yu Han's jade pendant. The jade pendant that symbolizes the status of the Fang family, he actually gave it to you, it's really very kind."

Hearing this, Fang Zilan suddenly understood why she felt familiar with the scene. She also had a similar jade pendant, and the pattern engraved on it was almost the same as this one, except that there was also a word "Lan" engraved on it.

Thinking of this, she held up the jade pendant and looked at it towards the light. Sure enough, she saw the word "Han" under the pattern.

After a long while, Fang Zilan spoke again: "Now that things have come to this, what do you plan to do, Master Fang?"

Fang Lihui turned his head away, thought for a long time, and finally looked at Cong Rong and said, "Miss Cong, Yu Han is wrong in this matter, and the Fang family feels guilty about you. Now I give you two choices: First, after you give birth, I will let Yu Han take you as a concubine; second, if you are willing, you can go to Wanhua Tower, where no one will dare to embarrass you."

A Wan, who had been silent the whole time, could not help but speak up, "Master Fang, you actually let Miss Cong go to Wanhua Tower?"

Fang Lihui looked at Awan and said with a smile: "Little girl, at your young age, do you know what Wanhua Tower does?"

A Wan looked disgusted and said, "Of course I know, isn't it just a brothel?"

Fang Lihui raised the corners of his lips and smiled helplessly, "The girls in Wanhua Tower only sell their art and not their bodies. If one day you want to leave, as long as the reason is innocent, the manager of the building will not make it difficult for you." However, when they got closer, Awan discovered that Fang Zilan did not smell of alcohol. Instead, she had a faint woody fragrance that was refreshing.

She sniffed it carefully and found that it was not the incense they usually used in their house, but smelled like the incense in the palace.

When Lieutenant General Cao saw Awan coming, he tactfully stood aside and gave up his seat next to Fang Zilan.

Awan bent down and came closer to Fang Zilan. Looking at the unnatural blush on her face, she reached out and touched her forehead, "It turns out she has a fever. Why are you so crazy in the cold weather..."

She muttered as she tried to pull her up from the ground.

However, she was small and not strong enough, so she could only shout to Deputy General Cao next to her: "Come and give me a hand."

"I don't have a fever." Fang Zilan glared at Awan displeasedly and allowed her and Deputy General Cao to drag her into the house.

Vice General Cao helped Fang Zilan to the main seat. Awan hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea for her, and then asked condescendingly: "Tell me, if you don't have a fever, what are you laughing at in the courtyard just now? And what else? What happened to your hand?"

Fang Zilan didn't care, "I got burned accidentally. I've already been given medicine."

Awan looked at the ointment on her hand with disgust on her face, and was about to say something when she saw her lowering her eyes and smiling slightly: "I found him."

Awan was confused, "Who did you find?"

"The little brother who took care of me when I was a child." Fang Zilan thought for a while and added, "The little brother who is as beautiful as fireworks."

Awan looked a little flustered. She turned to Deputy General Cao and asked, "Where has she been today?"

Vice General Cao replied hurriedly: "She was not here when I went to the government office to pick up the boss this afternoon. I asked the guard at the government office and she said that the boss came out of the government office in the afternoon and entered the palace. I have been waiting outside the palace, waiting. As soon as the boss came out of the palace, we went straight back to the house and didn’t go anywhere else.”

After hearing this, Awan frowned slightly and waved her hand in front of Fang Zilan's eyes, "Fang Zilan, do you still know who I am?"

Fang Zilan raised the corners of her lips and said amusedly: "Awan, do you really think I'm crazy?"

Awan saw that her eyes were clear and she didn't look like she was suffering from a fever, so she sat down next to her and said, "You're fine, why do you have a fever?"

"I was walking in a hurry this morning and didn't have time to put on my cloak." Fang Zilan said nonchalantly: "Later, I was admiring the snow in the palace. The charcoal fire in the room was full of fire. I thought about the alternation of cold and heat, and I got a fever."
