Chapter 180: Shaohua’s Hidden Feelings
His expression was slightly shy. “I saved the money which I earned while I was at the Fang Group, including the reward money and bonuses that I received. It’s not a big sum and only adds up to around a million dollars. Don’t look down upon it. I kept the card in the box under the moonlight. The pin number is your birthday.”
“Brother, there’s no need for this.”
“If you don’t mind that the money is too little, take it.”
“I have money, I really don’t need…”
“Listen to your brother and take it! If you won’t take it, you’re not allowed to try and fight the case for me.” He desperately wished to leave this place to prove to the world that he was innocent. However, if he did not say this, she definitely would not accept the money.
He had already been jailed for three years. If they failed to overturn his case, it was likely that he would be trapped here for the next nine years.
In fact, even if he did manage to leave this place, he was already a pariah in the society. It was likely that he would never have the ability to take care of her for the rest of his life.
There was only very little that he could give her.
If the Fang Group was still willing to take him back as their director, he would not accept a single cent of profit. He would save every cent he earned for her.
Seeing her brother’s insistence, Fang Xinxin was helpless. She could only nod in response. “All right then. I’ll hold onto it for you for the time being. If you ever need it, all you have to do is ask.”
Fang Shaohua smiled lightly. He had already given the money to her, why would he take it back?
“Brother, it’s clear that someone wanted to stop you from becoming the director of Fang Group.”
Fang Xinxin continued with her line of thought. “The most suspicious people are Fang Lilan and Fang Manxue. The night my phone was stolen, I was coincidentally called out by Bai Chenxi. I’m not sure if this matter is related to him, but I will definitely investigate it thoroughly.”
Fang Shaohua’s expression became uneasy. He knew that she held Bai Chenxi dearly in her heart. “Xinxin, if this matter is related to Bai Chenxi…”
“Then, I will give him a taste of what it’s like to be jailed and to live a life worse than death!”
Fang Shaohua smiled genuinely.
In her heart, Bai Chenxi was extremely important. She had even tossed aside the powerful and influential Bai Qinghao for him. Yet, right now, she was willing to force Bai Chenxi to be jailed.
This meant that… her feelings for him were deeper than that for Bai Chenxi.
“Xinxin…” Fang Shaohua was deeply moved and at a loss for words. If he had known she was that worried about him, he would have worked harder back then.
And now…
Now that he was imprisoned, he no longer had the right to hope for anything.
“By the way, Brother, I haven’t thanked you yet. Before you met with trouble, you paid for three years of hospital treatment for our father.” She said to him sincerely.
Without him, their father would have long lost his life.
Fang Shaohua waved his hand casually. “I’m his son. It’s what I should have done.”
They agreed on a suitable timing for their next meeting before Fang Xinxin turned to leave with her lawyer.
She was unaware that Fang Shaohao’s eyes remained fixed on her back view. His gaze revealed his deep feelings and he could not bear to look away from her.
A prison guard led Fang Shaohua back to his cell.
Behind the bars, there were three sets of bunk beds for six prisoners. The six of them were forced to share the small room and it was extremely stuffy.
“Yo, a tender and weak man like you gets visitors too?” One of his cellmates, Pan Dalong, sneered at him. “I heard a girl came to see you. Was it the woman you had before you came in? Is she hot? Have you taken her yet? Since she remembers you even after three years, she must have some feelings for you. If she’s beautiful, after I’m out of this place, you have to give me her contact number. I’m going to have a few rounds with her…”
