Chapter 314: Who Said No One Loves Me?
Beep—
Beep—
Beep—
The sounds of various monitors echoed in the intensive care unit.
The faint sound of breathing was drowned out, and the smile that had curled up behind Yu Weixiong's mask froze.
Those black eyes were clear; there was not a trace of the haziness of someone who had just woken from a coma!
"You've suspected me for a long time!" A murderous glint appeared in Yu Weixiong's eyes.
There was absolutely no sign of his usual kind and benevolent appearance.
One of his hands was gripped tightly by Sheng Yu and could not break free, while his other hand flipped rapidly, and a cold glint flashed from a silver needle between his fingers as he stabbed toward Sheng Yu.
But his speed was not as fast as Sheng Yu's; the moment he swung his hand to stab at Sheng Yu, Sheng Yu rolled over and kicked him to the ground.
He quickly pulled a gun from under the hospital bed, pulled the safety, and pointed the muzzle directly at Yu Weixiong's forehead.
His index finger rested on the trigger.
"Why did you kill her!" Sheng Yu gritted his teeth, his pair of clear black eyes gradually becoming stained with red.
He did not need to say a name; with just one word, Yu Weixiong knew who he was talking about.
Yu Weixiong sneered, "If I didn't kill her, should I have left her to be named the successor by the old man?"
It was actually for such an absurd and ridiculous reason.
The knuckles of the hand Sheng Yu used to hold the gun turned white and taut, "She treated you well!"
He had suspected that his mother's death had something to do with Yu Weixiong, but remembering his mother's past tenderness and care for Yu Weixiong, her half-brother, he had preferred to believe he was guessing wrong.
The moment the suspicion in his heart was confirmed.
His heart still felt a sharp pain.
His mother had been failed by two men in this life: one was the man she loved, and the other was the younger brother she cherished.
One was indifferent to her life and death, and the other wanted to put her to death.
At this very moment, he didn't even need to force a confession to know that when he first fell ill years ago, it was because he knew part of the truth.
Yu Weixiong was kicked in the chest by Sheng Yu and spat out a mouthful of blood; he propped himself up on the ground, gasping for air, his gaze fixed on Sheng Yu with venomous intent.
"That was just her pitying me, just like she would pity a stray cat or dog. She was the high and mighty eldest daughter of the Yu Family; she could bestow charity on whoever she wanted. I was just a dog she toyed with."
Enzo walked behind Sheng Yu and draped a black shirt over his shoulders.
Armed Bodyguards surrounded the intensive care unit inside and out; Yu Weixiong had no way to escape.
Sheng Yu buttoned the shirt one by one, looking down at Yu Weixiong as if he were looking at a dog.
"The day you defined yourself as a dog, you could never become a human."
Yu Weixiong laughed in a low voice, looking at Sheng Yu's high and mighty gaze, as if he had returned to many years ago when Sheng Hongyao had looked at him the same way.
Was he dirty, base, a clown?
They were the ones who were high and mighty!
"How are you any better than me? How is Sheng Hongyao any better than me!"
"I had people spread rumors outside that Sheng Hongyao relied on your mother to get ahead. The more the rumors spread, the more that conceited man Sheng Hongyao hated your mother, and the more he hated you!"
"Sheng Hongyao loathes you, Yu Lan is dead, the old man is dead, and Zhu Yuan has left you."
"Sheng Yu, you are more miserable than me. You, the legitimate successor born from the union of two wealthy families, live more miserably than I do!"
Yu Weixiong seemed like a victor, his eyes red as he laughed wildly.
His biological mother had schemed against the then-young head of the Yu Family for money, secretly gave birth to him, and when he was three years old, she took him to the Yu Family.
He had always lived in a dilapidated tenement building; the tenement was very dirty, and at night, the tungsten light bulbs were never bright enough, leaving the light dim, so his eyesight was poor even at three years old.
That was the first time he saw a house bigger than a palace, where even at night, the house could be as bright as day.
It was also the first time he saw his father.
He did not miss the flash of disgust and anger in the man's eyes when he heard his mother say he was his child.
He froze for a moment, clutching the corner of his tattered clothes tightly.
In that instant, the young him experienced embarrassment and the wounding of his self-esteem for the first time.
His mother took a sum of money from the Yu Family, signed an agreement never to return to him, and left.
He returned to the Yu Family to acknowledge his ancestors, but his father did not pay much attention to him, only handing him over to the servants.
The servants were polite to his face, calling him the young master, but he heard them calling him a bastard behind his back, saying he was not the legitimate successor of the Yu Family, and that only the eldest daughter was the proper young mistress of the Yu Family.
There were also servants who deliberately neglected him, giving him ill-fitting clothes, failing to prepare winter clothes for him, or forgetting to call him for meals.
Some secretly mocked his biological mother as a clown, and that he was a clown too, clinging to the Yu Family.
When he was truly starving, he snuck into the kitchen at night while the servants were asleep to find something to eat, but just as he found something and prepared to take it back to his room, he ran into that delicate and pretty eldest daughter of the Yu Family.
——Are you hungry?
——Your hands are so cold, are you very cold?
That soft, tender little hand grasped his frostbitten hand.
As expected of the young lady of the Yu Family, even the temperature of her palms was something so far out of his reach.
The next day, Yu Lan, who was only a year older than him, held his hand and stood in front of a group of servants who were much taller than them, scolding them in a milky voice.
From then on, no one in the Yu Family mistreated him again.
Yu Lan was very good to him.
But she did not know he was a born bad seed.
He remained like a bystander, mocking Yu Lan's ridiculous sympathy.
Later, Yu Lan grew into the greatest beauty in Jingdu City, and she fell in love with a man from Kyoto, insisting on marrying him no matter what.
That day she brought that man back, and he hypocritically called the other party brother-in-law.
In a corner where Yu Lan did not know, he saw the contempt in the man's eyes; the man used a condescending tone to mock him as an illegitimate child who couldn't be brought out in public, asking how he was worthy of calling him brother-in-law?
Didn't they mock him for being an illegitimate child?
Then let these legitimate heirs of wealthy families experience such humiliation for once.
Didn't Sheng Hongyao look down on him?
He had people kidnap Yu Lan and Sheng Yu, with the goal of wanting their lives; as for having people humiliate Yu Lan, it was a whim, wanting to see what kind of expression Sheng Hongyao would have when suffering such a great humiliation.
But the result disappointed him; he did not see pain in Sheng Hongyao's eyes.
Later, he wanted to make Sheng Hongyao wear a green hat and raise a son for him, but then he had a better idea: to use the unborn child in Shen Yijing's womb to make the father-son relationship between Sheng Hongyao and Sheng Yu completely break down.
Upon hearing that the old man wanted to hand the Yu Family over to Sheng Yu, he again remembered the words "legitimate heir" that had been etched into his mind in his childhood.
Aren't these legitimate heirs most afraid of humiliation?
That day, he deliberately had people reveal a bit of the truth about Sheng Yu's mother being humiliated before she died, causing Sheng Yu to have an episode; he found a girl, wanting to repeat what his own birth mother had done back then, to secretly give birth to Sheng Yu's illegitimate child.
But who knew that the woman would change her mind at the last minute.
That time he had intended to give up, until he saw Zhu Yuan alone; as long as he controlled her afterward, it would be fine!
Yet he didn't expect that Zhu Yuan would later escape, and that Sheng Hongyao would accidentally send Ning Huaiqing to Sheng Yu's room.
This was just too brilliant!
He helped Sheng Hongyao secretly wipe away the missed traces, not letting Sheng Yu find even a shred of the truth.
When the time came for the two father and son to fight to the death over this illegitimate child, he would be able to sit back and reap the rewards.
In fact, he had succeeded!
Just one step away!
Yu Weixiong gritted his teeth!
Just one step away and he could have won against these legitimate heirs!
However, he had not lost.
Everyone who looked down on him was dead.
Even this Sheng Yu, whose background made people jealous, had lost everyone who loved him and everyone he loved!
These legitimate heirs were no different from him!
Sheng Yu looked at Yu Weixiong, who was caught in self-hypnosis, and the corners of his mouth curled into a mocking smile.
He fished a dark green Hair Tie out of his pants pocket and, under Yu Weixiong's sinister and stunned gaze, slowly put it on his right wrist.
This Hair Tie was very new.
It was not the one that had been handled by Sheng Yu until it was faded and worn smooth.
"Who said I have no one to love me?" Sheng Yu laughed, lightly flicking the elastic new Hair Tie.
"Not only do I have a woman I love, but I also have a son; I will live very happily, no one can be happier than me."
