Old Master Fu had made his point, he still wished that Fu Qinglun would marry Fu Rongrong.
The Fu family had been going downhill for the past three years, with the Huos replacing their position as the most powerful wealthy family in Karghalik was a big hit. To make things worse, the Fu Corporation had gotten into some problems and Old Master Fu desperately needed Fu Qinglun to come back and solve their problems.
When she heard Old Master Fu’s words, Fu Rongrong’s eyes lit up and she glanced at Fu Qinglun with a tender gaze. “Brother Qinglun…”
She called his name with a gentle voice.
He seemed so distinguished and full of charisma, she just couldn’t help but fall in love with him at first sight three years ago. Three years later, he seemed even more handsome than he used to be, his aura elevated and her entire heart was already with him.
Fu Qinglun’s butler, who stood right behind him gave Fu Rongrong an impassive glance while he snorted inside. Foolish people. This family was really not right in the head. How dare they try to push for a woman like Fu Rongrong to marry Young Master. How was she even fit? If Madam were to learn of it, she would definitely lash out at them.
Of all the many socialites in Mexico who were queuing up to go on a date with him, Young Master hadn’t even spared them a single glance. Who did this Fu Rongrong think she was?
Fu Qinglun swirled the red wine around in the wine glass and replied half-heartedly, “I’ll consider it.”
He said, I’ll consider it.
He did not reject them outright and neither did he agree. It was an ambiguous reply.
The butler was stunned.
Lin Shiyu lifted her eyes to glance at the man opposite her. With his status, he could easily find a daughter of a wealthy family. Why didn’t he reject Fu Rongrong?
Fu Rongrong was delighted and the same went for Old Master Fu and Fu Jingtong, they revealed a cynical smile on their faces. If Fu Qinglun were to come back and work for the Fu Corporation, that would be the ending that they all wanted.
“I’ve heard about the Fu Corporation’s recent troubles,” Fu Qinglun suddenly spoke.
Fu Jingtong’s face darkened. “I’ve been set up, there’s a multinational corporation named Koco that has been launching malicious attacks on the Fu Corporation. We’ve already lost around tens of billions of USD funds, the Fu Corporation has suffered a capital chain rupture.”
Old Master Fu’s face was stern as he glanced at Fu Qinglun and asked, “Qinglun, do you know about this MNC Koco?”
Although Old Master Fu had made use of many connections in order to investigate Koco, he hadn’t found even one bit of useful information. The MNC, Koco, seemed to have been an inconspicuous but magnificent presence.
In actual fact, Koco was actually a family-owned conglomerate belonging to the Guding family. The attacks on the Fu Corporation were both intentional and malicious.
The butler stood behind Fu Qinglun and smirked inwardly. This family was seriously brainless, the President of Koco was just sitting right in front of them and they had no clue.
Pursing his lips elegantly, Fu Qinglun remarked lightly, “If even you don’t even know much about Koco, what makes you think I do?”
Everyone continued having dinner with different intentions in their minds.
After having dinner, Old Master Gu spoke up, “Jingtong, Qinglun, stay over tonight.”
Fu Jingtong stretched out an arm and wrapped it around Lin Shiyu’s slim waist. “Alright. Brother, you should sleep over tonight too. I’ll ask the maid to prepare a guest room for you, it will be right beside my room with Shi’shi.”
Fu Qinglun stared at the arm that was around Lin Shiyu’s waist with no expression.
“However, Brother, I’d have to warn you first, Shi’shi and I love each other very much and if there are any sounds at night, please don’t mind us.” Fu Jingtong laughed.
Ignoring him, Fu Qinglun lifted his eyes and looked at Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shiyu’s body had stiffened when Fu Jingtong laid his hands on her, but she tried her best to endure it.
When she felt Fu Qinglun’s gaze riveted on her face, she also lifted her eyes to look at him.
But Fu Jingtong grasped her waist, forcing her upstairs. “Let’s go, Shi’shi. We still need to wash up and go to sleep early tonight.”
Fu Jingtong and Lin Shiyu entered the room and the door was closed behind them.
After they left, Fu Qinglun remained in the living room, both hands in his pockets. He didn’t have much of an expression on his face, but one could tell that he wasn’t feeling good seeing them enter the room together.
He signaled his personal assistant with a side glance.
The personal assistant nodded his head in acknowledgment.
…
In the room.
Fu Jingtong flung Lin Shiyu into the room and he instantly put away all the pretense he had earlier on, his face contorted a little. “Shi’shi, you’ve left for a good three years, if I didn’t manage to get hold of you, were you planning to leave your hubby behind?”
Hubby?
Who did he think he was kidding?
When she heard the word ‘Hubby’, Lin Shiyu’s lips were raised into a cold smirk. “Fu Jingtong, there’s no one else here, you don’t need to continue putting up an act. We didn’t even complete the wedding, let alone, we didn’t even register our marriage. I’m not related to you in any way at all.”
“Who are you related to then? Fu Qinglun?” Fu Jingtong spat caustically, then recalled the scene he had witnessed earlier on when they were in the car. Fu Qinglun’s blazer was covering her body. “Tell me now, have you been together with Fu Qinglun for the past three years? Have you slept together every single day and night?”
The man was insane! This Fu Jingtong had questionable mental health.
“Shi’shi, you’re going to become my woman tonight! I’ve been waiting for this wedding night for too long! You’re mine!”
Fu Jingtong then pounced, wanting to hug Lin Shiyu.
But Lin Shiyu moved aside, avoiding him.
With a wry smile on his face, Fu Jingtong had his hands on his belt as he unbuckled it. “Shi’shi, be good, it’s going to be a win-win situation for us if you stay still. If not, I have my ways to subdue you!”
He then stretched out his legs, slowly stalking towards Lin Shiyu. Lin Shiyu kept her guard up as she moved backwards.
The atmosphere in the room became tense and stifling.
Knock knock, someone was outside the room.
“Who is it?” Fu Jingtong growled in annoyance.
Who the f*ck was here right when he was in the middle of doing it?
He was in the midst of doing something exciting!
Fu Jingtong looked at Lin Shiyu’s beautiful face with a lascivious gaze. It has been three whole years, this woman became even more alluring than before.
“Young Master, bad news! Something has cropped up at the company. It’s Koco again. The Fu Corporation has just lost three billion US dollars!”
What?
Fu Jingtong’s expression changed and his mind ground to a halt, shocked by the news. How did that even happen?
The Fu Corporation had suffered a capital chain rupture and with the loss of the three billion US dollars of capital, they were basically left with zero current assets. Nothing.
The Fu Corporation was going to be emptied out!
Koco?! Who the f*ck was behind Koco?!
Fu Jingtong repeated the name ‘Koco’ in his mind over and over again, who was bent on ruining him?
“Shi’shi, you’d better behave well and stay still, don’t even try to escape!” After warning her, Fu Jingtong quickly left the room for the company.
He had left.
Lin Shiyu heaved a sigh of relief once he was gone. She had to be careful with every action and decision she was to make, since she still had to raise Little Lemon.
She stepped into the bathroom.
Standing in front of the bathroom counter, she removed her white silky blouse. There was a scar on her flat tummy.
She had given birth to Little Lemon prematurely when she was only eight months old. Originally she had planned to have a natural birth, but after being in labor for an entire night, she still wasn’t able to give birth to Little Lemon. When she started bleeding below, the doctor had made the decision to send her into the operating theater for a C-section.
The bathroom door suddenly opened, and a suave figure appeared before her.
Fu Qinglun suddenly appeared in the bathroom.
