Chapter 71: To Be Triumphant
Proofread by Peter Gong
Yu Fei is too furious to say a word, staring at Wang Feng in place silently. But her stare isn't taken into account by Wang Feng at all. Taking out a file from her bag, she throws it on the tea table. "This is the divorce agreement. Don't dawdle. Sign it quickly!" Not expecting the full preparation Wang has made, Yu Fei does not get angry, and sneers, "Why should I sign? This is a private affair between Ko Chen and me. Whether I sign or not depends on my mood. What qualifications do you have to demand me?" Yu Fei's tough attitude stuns Wang Feng for a second in that Yu Fei was always meek and has never contradicted her this way.
Wang Feng's anger is immediately fueled so much that her image is totally ruined by her standing with her arms akimbo, roaring at Yu Fei, "Because I'm your father's wife!" But in Yu Fei's eyes, the woman is just like a clown whose every word is ridiculous. She looks at Wang Feng calmly, "yes, you are my father's wife. So what?" Wang Feng and Yu Yu are merely somewhat familiar strangers since she was married to Ko Chen to save Yu Company three years ago when her father died. After these events, she won't tolerate them if she does not take into consideration the fact that Yu Yu is her father's daughter.
Maybe it's because she senses Yu Fei's different attitude, her attitude also switches. Rolling her eyes, she puts on a big smile and walks forward to grab her hands for the purpose of looking close with her. "Fei, it's not me, your step-mother, cheat you. I just feel unjust for you that Ko Chen turns against you after your pregnancy. Such a man isn't worthy of your love. Sign the divorce agreement as early as possible, and you can find a man who truly loves you and treats you well as soon as possible."
There is only one real meaning in her long earnest speech. That is to make Yu Fei sign the agreement. With her head lowered, Yu Fei withdraws her hands to grope her underbelly which hasn't shown obvious pregnancy yet. To her baby she gives a gentle smile which instantly disappears the moment when she raises her head.
Looking at Wang Feng expressionlessly, Yu Fei says word by word seriously, "Considering you are my elder, I just say the following sentence once: no matter what happens between Ko Chen and me, it's a business between us. I hope you won't intervene any more." Her words are so resolute that Wang Feng feels totally unable to argue back. Wang Feng opens her mouth hesitantly, and finally says nothing but one sentence, "Then just be careful for what you choose!" Then she slams the door behind and leaves. The door is closed with "bang", which seems to shake the whole room.
Once Wang Feng leaves, her stiffened body immediately relaxes and she barely supports herself up by leaning against the wall. Although she acted tough to Wang Feng just now, she is actually in panic. Walking to the sofa, she sits down and sees the divorce agreement. Wang Feng doesn't take it away and it's still on the tea table. The two words "DIVORCE AGREEMENT" pain her eyes again and make her feel pretty bitter. Although she doesn't sign it this time, she won't have any excuse for rejection if Ko Chen comes next time.
Her tears drip pitter-patter and wet the agreement in her hands. Crumbing it harder, Yu Fei screws up it into a ball in front of her chest, and finally bursts into cry which echoes in the room for quite some time.
When Wang Feng goes downstairs, she receives Yu Yu's call. She answers it furiously as she was exasperated by Yu Fei just now and she wants to vent her anger on someone. The moment her words are finished, Yu Yu knows what has happened, "She didn't sign it?" "No." Wang Feng answers rudely and what happened in Yu Fei' home occurs to her again and angers her so much that her chest heaves violently.
Yu Yu has been upset by Ko Chen's attitude to her. Originally, she made a plan with Wang Feng to force Yu Yu to sign it first to seek relief, and then she would find an appropriate time to let Ko Chen sign it later. But they didn't expect they would be obstructed in their first step. "What should we do next?" Yu Yu immediately loses her temper and asks Wang Feng anxiously. Yu Yu didn't tell the whole thing that Ko Chen had taunted her, but just said that he seemed to be indifferent to her her recently. Wang Feng instantly freaked out when hearing it and discussed with her daughter and came up with today's plan. Wang Feng looks up at Yu Fei's home with her vicious eyes and sneers, "She didn't sign it? I have thousands of ways to force her to sign."
While the two are discussing how to deal with Yu Fei, someone is checking their information on the other side of the city. It is Tan Lin who is scrolling her mouse to check details about Wang Feng and Yu Yu. During the browse, a sneer appears on Tan Lin's face especially when Yu Yu's three-years-ago abortion is shown. It is hilarious that such a woman will dream of staying with Ko Chen, thus, little does Tan Lin care about Yu Yu in that she believes Chen wouldn't have such a terrible taste.
She browses on, and Yu Fei's photos appear. Seeing her photos, Tan Lin screws up her eyes. Woman's instinct tells her that the relationship between this woman and Ko Chen is definitely not the same as that between Ko Chen and Yu Yu. As expected, she finds that Yu Fei is exactly the woman who was married to Ko Chen three years ago. With cruelty her eyes are fixed on the photos for a long time. And if Yu Fei appears in front of her now, Tan Lin will definitely tear her into pieces, because in Tan Lin's mind's eye, Ko Chen is her own belongings which cannot be shared by anyone else.
Time goes by and the sky gradually darkens. In front of the computer Tan Lin doesn't have any reaction. Lights of the screen shine bright and dim alternatively on her expressionless face. Until the sky darkens completely and lights shine in from outside does Tan Lin stand up slowly. With lights off, she walks to the window in darkness, looking down the moving spots on the road with a sneer.
Although Yu Fei was married to Ko Chen for money, it's impossible for him to keep this woman staying with him for three years if he did not have feelings for her based on Tan Lin's knowledge of him. What's more Yu Fei gets pregnant. Tan Lin crooks her fingers to knock the window, and she thinks even if it is the case, it's not a big deal. She looks outside lifelessly with her voice becoming weaker and weaker, "Ko Chen is mine, and can only be mine." A slight but conspicuously triumphant smile appears on her face.
