Chapter 171: The Truth


    "Snap."


    A p, hard on Emily''s pink cheek.


    Shangguan Baocheng looked at his once precious granddaughter with an angry face.


    "It''s getting really stupid toe up with this stupid method, Emily, what did I teach you, didn''t I tell you


    not to act rashly? You actually ruined all my ns."


    Shangguan Baocheng forcefully mmed the news he just got in Emily''s face.


    "Grandpa, I''m sorry, it''s Emily''s fault, Emily is willing to ept any punishment from Grandpa."


    Emily did not raise her head and silently epted the paining from her body.


    "Master, Miss certainly didn''t mean it, she just couldn''t ept this sudden fact for a while, so she did


    such an impulsive thing, just let Miss go and don''t torture her anymore."


    Seeing Emily''s red and swollen cheek, Shangguan Xu, who had been standing beside her, hurriedly


    came to Shangguan Baocheng''s front and pleaded for Emily''s mercy.


    "Torture?"


    A sneer appeared on Shangguan Baocheng''s pale face.


    "Shangguan Xu, what kind of status are you using to talk to me?"


    "Grandpa, Wook didn''t mean it, Emily is willing to ept any punishment from you. This matter has


    nothing to do with Wook, you should not punish him."


    Seeing a sh of killing intent under her grandfather''s eyes, Emily hurriedly crawled to Shangguan


    Baocheng''s front and cried.


    "Emily, is that how much you love this man? In love with this man who once raped you?"


    "Rape?" Shangguan Baocheng''s words were like a bolt from the blue, fiercely jerking at Emily''s heart,


    Emily looked at Shangguan Xu beside her in disbelief.


    "Grandpa, you must be joking, wasn''t Wook always on your mission in the field at that time? How could


    it be possible to bully Emily?"


    What happened a few years ago was like a nightmare, making Emily live in constant fear.


    "On a mission?"


    Shangguan Baochengughed out loud. There was no concern on his face.


    "Yes, he was on my mission, but he did a beautiful job and finished the task I gave him ahead of time,


    so I let him go back to rest, but I didn''t expect that he actually broke into your room and raped you, and


    that''s why he kept guarding you."


    "No ....... This is impossible ...... You must be lying to me? This is a lie?"


    Emily obviously could not ept this fact, her emotions turned a little out of control, disregarding


    Shangguan Baocheng''s orders. She stood up directly from the ground and rushed to Shangguan Xu''s


    front.


    "Tell me, is what Grandpa said true? The man that night, was it really you?"


    Looking at Emily with a painful face, Shangguan Xu''s heart was filled with stinging pain, he really


    regretted, regretted that he had done something like that to hurt her.


    "Shangguan Xu, speak up, tell me, that man is not you, it is someone else, right?"


    Emily looked at Shangguan Xu with anticipation.


    "Miss, calm down."


    "Calm?"


    Emily let out a sneer.


    "How do you ask me to calm down? Do you know how horrible that night was for me? It simply fills me


    with fear when I think about it. I can''t forget how dirty that man left his mark on my body. Wook, you tell


    me that that man is not you."


    The more Emily talks, the more emotional she gets.


    "Wook, you just tell her ah, tell her that night, and she was with the man is you ah."


    "I ......"


    Xu nced at Shangguan Baocheng, who was talking to himself, and then at Emily, who had an


    expectant face in front of him.


    "I''m sorry."


    It took all the strength of his body for Shangguan Xu to say these three words.


    Emily didn''t dare to ept this reality, she couldn''t believe these three words that came out of


    Shangguan Xu''s mouth, she deeply understood what these three words represented.


    "Why? You tell me why this is ah? Why is this man you? Are all these years of guarding you atoning for


    the things you did in the first ce?"


    Emily, who was in an emotional state, raised her right hand and hit Shangguan Xu''s face hard.


    Shangguan Xu did not have any reaction, allowing Emily''s pink fist, hitting his chest.


    "Why don''t you duck out of the way?"


    After ying for half a day, Emily really felt a little tired, she stopped dangling and looked at Shangguan


    Xu.


    "I once said that even if I give up my life, I will not let you suffer any more, the former injury was caused


    by me, so I will use my life to make up for this injury, Miss, give me a chance, a chance to make up for


    you, a chance to make you forget that pain?"


    The bottom of Shangguan Xu''s eyes are full of deep love, but this deep love, for Emily, who is full of


    pain, does not y any role. On the contrary, it makes her hate the man in front of her even more.


    "Wook, do you know how long I''ve been looking forward to these words? Ever since you were ced


    by my grandfather''s side as my bodyguard, I decided that you were the only one who would bring me


    happiness in this life, but what I didn''t expect was that you came to me with such a mentality, and the


    man I hated the most in my heart, actually stood by my side all the time."


    Emily''s face was filled with a bitter smile, she really didn''t think that she had been smart for more than


    twenty years, but originally had been living among the deception of her rtives and the men around


    her.


    "Well, the two of you will settle this matter by yourselves. Emily, tell me everything you have done, tell


    me everything, tell me that Lauren lost the baby inside her belly. Did you set it up?"


    Lauren the three words, in the eyes of Shangguan Baocheng, does not represent any meaning, for this


    woman, Shangguan Baocheng does not have any affection.


    "That''s right, I sent someone to do it, I sent someone to add abortifacient pills inside the juice she drank


    to make her lose the baby inside her belly."


    At this point, Emily doesn''t want to have anything to hide, for her, nothing is more painful than now.


    Shangguan Baocheng nodded his head.


    "You did a good job on this one, and I now want you to get close to Matthew and really be her woman."


    Shangguan Baocheng''s face was expressionless as he gave the order to Emily.


    "Close to Matthew?"


    The words caused Emily to lift her watery eyes.


    "Grandpa, you should know that ever since you withdrew all the fundsst time, Matthew has been full


    of hatred towards our Shangguan family, especially the attitude he used to face us at the Junkman


    reception a few days ago. Have you forgotten all these?"


    Emily really can''t guess what Shangguan Baocheng is thinking, she really can''t fantasize this old man


    with a calcting face in front of her, and the old loving grandfather into one person.


    "It depends on your ability, Emily, grandpa believes in your ability, otherwise he wouldn''t have given


    Shangguan''s Group to you to manage, and wouldn''t have easily let you and Ouyang Haotian dissolve


    their marriage, you should know that a marriage contracted by the family can rarely be changed."


    Emily took a deep breath.


    "Grandpa, I''m really grateful that I had your support in the beginning so that I could break off my


    marriage with Ouyang Haotian in front of the n, but you should not forget that it was your advocacy


    that I chose to be with that despicable man."


    Shangguan Baocheng slightly narrowed his eyes. A dissatisfied face looked at Emily.


    "Are you using me of that?"


    Emily shook her head.


    "No, I''m not using you, I just want you to understand that Emily is still the same Emily as before, but


    Emily really doesn''t want her grandfather, to be so strange."


    Emily looked at Shangguan Baocheng with a painful face.


    Shangguan Baocheng let out a soft sigh.


    "Emily, you are grandpa''s most beloved grandson, so don''t let down grandpa''s expectations for you,


    don''t worry, after the sess of the matter, grandpa won''t treat you badly, when the timees,


    grandpa will let you and your mother meet, so that you two, mother and daughter, can live happily


    together."


    At the corner of Emily''s mouth, a bitter smile slipped through.


    "Grandpa, I really don''t know, what exactly is your purpose? I definitely won''t believe that you are


    greedy for the treasure on Matthew''s body, and I definitely won''t believe that Matthew''s Yin''s Group,


    will be so attractive to you."


    "Yes, I do have other purposes, but now you do not need to know, when the time is ripe, I will tell you,


    your task now, is to go and do what I have arranged, as for Xu, I will let him always guard your side,"


    Emily shook her head.


    "No, I don''t need a man by my side who hurts me, I can protect myself. Grandpa, don''t let this man


    follow me around, or the things you have handed down will not be aplished."


    Emily does not even look at Shangguan Xu, as if when Shangguan Xu is a wisp of dispensable air.


    Seeing Emily''s indifferent attitude, Shangguan Xu had a painful face.


    "No, Wook must guard your side, his presence will allow you to get closer to Matthew better, but


    grandpa told you, you can''t rush everything, and you can''t use forceful means, Matthew himself is a


    natural king. So for a strong woman, he will not like it, remember, to deal with such a man, it is


    necessary to have certain means, grandpa believes in your ability, you can certainlyplete this


    matter sessfully."


    Shangguan Baocheng admonished Emily.


    The corner of Emily''s mouth, hooked up a sneer.


    "Grandpa, in your heart, there is now long gone the existence of me as your granddaughter, I really


    don''t know, a man who can call his own daughter a wild child, is there anything else he wouldn''t dare to


    do?"


    Emily''s sarcasm-filled tone made Shangguan Baocheng''s old face, filled with anger.


    "Emily, are you challenging my authority? You know Grandpa''s character, and Grandpa will never let


    anyone defy me in any way?"


    Under Shangguan Baocheng''s eyes, a bloodthirsty glint shed.


    Emily''s thin lips rose slightly, hooking up an icy sneer.


    "Grandpa, after staying by your side for so many years and being taught by you for so many years,


    how could Emily not understand what happens when you defy you? Emily has seen with her own eyes


    how you punish your servants who betray you, so Emily will not make such a mistake and will not give


    you the chance to punish Emily."


    Emily''s attitude brought a smile to Shangguan Baocheng''s face.


    "Grandpa certainly believes in your ability, otherwise he wouldn''t have given you such an important


    task to handle, and grandpa also believes that you will be able toplete this matter very well."


    Emily gave a cold hum. Turning around, she faced Shangguan Xu.


    "Shangguan Xu, since grandpa has ced you on my side, take me away now, I want to go back to my


    room and rest."


    Emily''s huge change before and after made Shangguan Xu a little inscrutable for a while, but he picked


    her up, left the hall and went back to Emily''s own room.


    "What? Don''t dare to face me? Show the courage you had back then, huh?"


    Emily, who had returned to the room, saw Shangguan Xu walking toward the door and said with a


    sneer.


    Shangguan Xu, who had already walked to the door, stopped in his tracks. Turned around and looked


    at Emily with a heartbroken face.


    "Missy, I admit that my drunken self back then did do something wrong to you and made you suffer


    greatly, and I am willing to spend my life to make up for what I have done, but please don''t be so mean


    and give me a chance to make up for it and give myself a chance to forget the pain."


    "Forget the pain?"


    Emilyughed out loud.


    "Shangguan Xu, do you think your atonement will make me forget the painful night? I can never forget,


    the pieces of bruises left on my body, I can never forget, the blood between my legs, Shangguan Xu, I


    will not forgive you, I will make you live in self-me for the rest of your life, I will make you see me and


    remember what you did before, I will make you live in pain for the rest of your life."


    Emily''s hate-filled tone made Shangguan Xu shake, he really didn''t think that what he did back then


    would make Emily hate herself so much.

    "Go put the bath water on for me, I want a hot bath."


    Since knowing that the man that night was Shangguan Xu, Emily looked at him with eyes that were no


    longer filled with tenderness, no longer filled with love, but filled with indescribable hatred.


    There was no other way, Shangguan Xu could only follow Emily''s request and walked into the


    bathroom.


    Looking at Shangguan Xu''s lonely back, Emily''s face, raised a wry smile.
