“She doesn’t even have the money, so why is she still pretending? I don’t think she was cheated. She just doesn’t have the money. That’s why she’s wearing an imitation.”
“That’s right. She only knows how to show off here every day.”
Xia Yihua listened to the students’ discussions and ridicule. Her face alternated between red and white. She looked terrible.
This feeling was worse than being slapped. It was extremely embarrassing.
She had been pampered since she was young. When had she ever been treated like this?
However, she did not have the time to argue with her classmates. Instead, she gripped her phone tightly and ran home in a hurry.
She wanted to go home and ask her father what was going on?
How did the company suddenly encounter such a serious situation?
Fu Tingyan left before Xia Yihua.
The students also dispersed.
Qin Shu glanced at the news on her phone screen. The Xia family was not easily shaken.
The news was out now, so this meant that it was not something that had happened in the past few days.
Ye Xue stood beside Qin Shu and turned to look at her. “Qin Shu, What’s wrong?”
Qin Shu shook her head. “Nothing. I just didn’t think that I would encounter this when I came to fill up my university selection form. Let’s go back.”
Ye Xue nodded. “Okay, don’t take it to heart.”
Qin Shu shook her head nonchalantly, indicating that she didn’t take it to heart.
It was just a small matter. There was no need to waste her brain cells on it.
After the two of them walked out of the school, they bought ice cream at a drink store near the school. They only went back after they were done eating.
When Qin Shu walked out of the ice cream shop, she received a call from Mu Lan.
As soon as the call was connected, she heard Mu Lan’s anxious voice. “Shu, quickly come to the hospital to see your father. He was beaten up by a bunch of hooligans for no reason a few days ago and was hospitalized for a few days. He was afraid that you would be worried and didn’t want me to call you. He is still lying on the hospital bed. I couldn’t bear it anymore, so I am calling you secretly. Quickly come over and visit him.”
Qin Shu sneered to herself. They were calling her over because they wanted to use sweet words to take away her shares.
Call her secretly?
Did he still think she was the same person as before?
“I have something to do now, so I can’t go. I’ll go when I’m done.”
“But your father’s hand is broken and has been in pain for several days. Aren’t you coming to visit him?”
“But I really have something to do. You should know Yu’s temper. The consequences are very serious.” Qin Shu deliberately emphasized the last sentence.
When Mu Lan heard about Fu Tingyu’s temper, she did not dare to say anything more. She could only say embarrassedly, “Alright then. You have to come quickly to visit your father. He has been in so much pain these past few days that he can’t even eat.”
Qin Shu hung up the phone. Hurry up and go visit him?
When she did visit, Qin Hai would probably wish for her to visit even later.
Qin Shu put away her phone and walked to the Maybach by the roadside.
Ye Luo has been waiting at the roadside. When he saw Qin Shu, he got out of the car, open the back door, and waited for Qin Shu to get in.
Qin Shu walked past Ye Luo and said to him, “Go straight to the company.” Then, she got into the car.
Ye Luo closed the door expressionlessly before getting into the driver’s seat. He started the engine and drove towards the company.

40 minutes later
Fu Enterprise
After Qin Shu got out of the car, she followed Ye Luo to the front of the special elevator. She unlocked it with her fingerprint and entered the elevator.
Ye Luo followed without a word.
Ding
The elevator door opened and Qin Shu went to the office.
Ye Luo headed to the side and waited for her.
Qin Shu walked to the office door. She did not knock in advance but pushed open the door and walked in.
When the door was pushed open, she saw Fu Tingyu sitting behind his desk. When he was working seriously, he seemed to be completely focused and not disturbed by the outside world.
This version of him was very different from usual.
Sometimes, she liked to watch the man as he worked seriously. Not only was it because he was good-looking, but also because he was very charming when he was working seriously.
Qin Shu walked in slowly.
Fu Tingyu raised his head and looked over. His eyes caught a pair of bright eyes. It was unknown whether it was because someone’s eyes were too attractive or because their eyes met. The two of them looked at each other for a long time.
Qin Shu slowed down a little because of the man’s gaze that had fallen upon her. The man’s gaze was still on her when she walked up to the desk.
Fu Tingyu put down the pen in his hand, turned his chair around, and faced the girl. He stretched out his long arms and pulled the girl into his arms. She was so light that it made his heart ache.
“Have you finished filling in the school selection form?” The man’s voice was a little muffled as if he was dissatisfied with her going to a university so far away.
The man’s voice was right beside her ear, causing Qin Shu to unconsciously shrink her neck.
She nodded. “Yes, my goal is Imperial College, so I didn’t fill in the rest.”
Fu Tingyu didn’t say anything. He just hugged her as if he was afraid that she would run away.
Seeing that she couldn’t move, Qin Shu raised her hand and nudged the man’s arm. She reminded him in a low voice, “Go back to work. Let’s go home together after work.”
Fu Tingyu was silent for a long time before saying “Okay” and letting go of her.
Qin Shu sat on the sofa across from him. She took out her laptop from her backpack and started playing with it.
She recalled the last time she had revealed her hacking skills.
The man didn’t ask her how she had done it, nor did he ask her anything else.
Although she was very confused, she was relieved because she really didn’t know how to answer him.
Fu Tingyu sat at his desk and stared at the girl for a long time before he lowered his eyes to deal with his work.
At half-past five-
Fu Tingyu put down what he was doing and brought the girl home for dinner so that she wouldn’t starve.
Qin Shu was a little surprised. Wasn’t it a little early to go home?
The employees of the company were still working.
Fu Tingyu held the girl’s hand and walked out of the company, attracting many envious gazes.
Bright Garden
After dinner-
Fu Tingyu had been too busy recently and brought many things back to deal with.
Qin Shu went to the small study room to attend classes.
Because it was summer vacation, her class time was lengthened.
Because the later classes were more difficult, the young professor who had been simple and clear at the beginning would now make more clarifications.
Qin Shu was already used to the strange class location of the young professor, so she clicked on the video and opened it. Other than curiosity, there was nothing else.
Because it was summer vacation, the young professor did not live on campus, so he gave his classes in a study room.
In the video, the young professor’s well-defined fingers were holding a pen, as if he was taking notes. Even though she could not see his face, she knew that he was very serious.
In the study room-
Fu Tingyu sat in front of his desk, dealing with some work. Suddenly, he remembered the fruits that had been flown in. Among them were the cherries that the girl liked to eat.
Every time, it was the girl who would bring him fruits. He had never brought her fruits before.
Fu Tingyu put down the mouse in his hand. He stood up and went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare the fruits for the girl personally.
After entering the kitchen, he opened the refrigerator and took out the fresh fruits that had just been flown in. Then, he walked to the sink and rolled up his sleeves. His movements were elegant and noble as he bent down and started washing the fruits.
When Ning Meng, who had just walked in, saw Fu Tingyu standing by the sink and washing the fruits, she was so scared that she hurriedly ran over. “Sir, just let me do this. Your hands are so precious, you can’t do this kind of thing.”
