At present, Fu Qinglun was still at the old residence of the Fu Family. Evidently Old Master Fu and Fu Jingtong were plotting to trap Fu Qinglun here.
What should she do?
Lin Shiyu turned around and ran upstairs. She had to take Fu Qinglun away from this place!
Raising her hand, she knocked on the door of Fu Qinglun’s room.
Very soon after, the room door opened and the man himself emerged at the door.
He stuck one hand into his trousers pocket and his deep, dark eyes landed on Lin Shiyu’s beautiful face. “Why are you here? Did you miss me?”
How was he still in the mood to crack jokes at this point in time?
“Fu Qinglun, you’re in trouble. There is a party being held downstairs. Old Master Fu and Fu Jingtong are holding a wedding ceremony for you!”
Upon hearing these words, Fu Qinglun arched his eyebrows and said indolently, “Really? How come I’m not aware that I’m going to get married? Who is my bride?”
“Fu Rongrong.”
“Ah.”
He actually said, “Ah.”
Lin Shiyu was unable to fathom his thoughts. There was nary a change in the expression on his handsome face. He was so calm and composed, as if everything was happening according to his plans.
He was now trapped in the old residence of the Fu Family. She guessed that he was still oblivious to what was going on.
“Fu Qinglun, you have to leave now. Leave Karghalik.”
Fu Qinglun curved his dark red lips. “I’m not leaving. There’s going to be a big show tonight, so I want to stay behind to watch it.”
“…” Lin Shiyu rolled her eyes at him and grasped his muscular wrist. “Fu Qinglun, stop fooling around. We have to leave now. I’ll see if I can take you out of here!”
With that, Lin Shiyu pulled Fu Qinglun away.
But they had only walked a couple of steps when the man grasped her slender wrist and immediately pinned her against the wall.
Pah! Fu Qinglun slammed his large hand by her side on the wall. His broad chest sandwiched her delicate body between himself and the wall. “Lin Shiyu, getting married is my own business. Why are you so anxious?”
The man’s handsome and refined face grew larger in her vision, and Lin Shiyu’s heart jumped. Yes, why was she so anxious?
Just then, her vision became dark and the man leaned his body and loomed closer to her. “Admit it, Lin Shiyu. You still have feelings for me.”
‘You still have feelings for me.’
She still liked him.
Both of their faces were almost touching. His clean and masculine scent seemed to scatter on her delicate skin. Lin Shiyu gradually curled her fingers.
She extended both arms to push him and said, “Fu Qinglun, we were once married. Even if we were merely friends, it is only right for me to inform you about this matter.”
Friends?
The fire in Fu Qinglun’s deep eyes extinguished bit by bit. He retracted his hand, stuck one hand into his trousers pocket and straightened himself. A sneer played on his dark red lips and he said impassively, “How is it that I don’t remember having a friend like you?”
“…”
At this moment, there was a flurry of footsteps. Someone had arrived.
“Fu Qinglun, you have to leave now. Someone is coming. You won’t be able to get away later!”
Fu Qinglun narrowed his dark eyes and looked at Lin Shiyu. “Do you think I’m still the same Fu Qinglun from three years ago – penniless, getting beaten by others and thrown into the police station, before getting dumped by my beloved woman?”
Lin Shiyu’s luscious lashes quivered. Back then, the man was at his most wretched and pathetic state three years ago.
Three years had passed and he was no longer the person he used to be.
“Qinglun, Shiyu, why are you both here?” Just then, Old Master Fu and Fu Jingtong walked over.
When Fu Jingtong saw Lin Shiyu, his features promptly turned grim. He pulled Lin Shiyu over possessively. “Shi’shi, it’s Big Brother and Rongrong’s big day today. Don’t go over to bother them. If you do, I’ll be unhappy.”
Lin Shiyu rolled her eyes at Fu Jingtong and did not even bother to reply.
“Old Master, I just found out that my wedding is today. Why didn’t anyone inform me?” Fu Qinglun smiled at Old Master Fu.
Old Master Fu’s cloudy eyes gleamed shrewdly. “Qinglun, you already belong to our family. Now that you are going to marry Rongrong, we will be even closer. Of course it is a very joyous occasion.
“Rest assured that I’ll let you reenter the Fu Corporation after you marry Rongrong. I’ve already sent someone to register for the marriage certification for Rongrong and you, so that both of you don’t have to make a trip down to the City Hall.”
Old Master Fu had even sent someone to obtain the marriage certificate. Lin Shiyu gave a cold laugh in her heart. This family was indeed shameless.
Just then, another figure walked over. It was Fu Rongrong. “Brother Qinglun.”
Fu Rongrong looked at Fu Qinglun lovingly.
Old Master Fu promptly patted Fu Rongrong’s shoulders. “Rongrong, you are a bride today. After you marry Qinglun, you have to be a good wife and mother. Bear a child for Qinglun soon. Do you understand?”
Fu Rongrong blushed. “I understand.”
Fu Qinglun’s face was devoid of any expression. He looked at these people impassively and his lips curved into a frosty smile.
“Someone, send Qinglun to the make-up room so that he can change into his groom outfit. All the guests are almost here. We will hold the wedding ceremony shortly,” Old Master Fu instructed.
Fu Jingtong looked at Fu Qinglun and smiled maliciously. “Big Brother, congratulations on marrying a beautiful wife.”
Beautiful wife?
Fu Rongrong?
“Ha.” Fu Qinglun gave a low laugh, turned around and entered the make-up room by himself.
Fu Qinglun was going in obediently?
Seeing the man behave so uncharacteristically, Lin Shiyu was getting increasingly suspicious. What was he thinking? Was he really planning to marry Fu Rongrong?
Fu Rongrong stepped into her own bridal make-up room with a joyous expression. After she left, Fu Jingtong looked at Old Master Fu suspiciously. “Grandfather, this Fu Qinglun is too compliant. I think something is amiss.”
Old Master Fu said cautiously, “He’s now in our hands and can’t escape. Get more people to keep an eye on him. We can’t afford to have any blunders tonight.”
…
The hall was filled with guests from the rich and affluent. The auspicious time had come and the melodious wedding music was already playing.
Old Master Fu stood on the stage to address everyone. “I’d like to extend a big welcome to all our distinguished guests in attending my grandson, Fu Qinglun, and my granddaughter, Fu Rongrong’s, wedding today. Let’s invite the bride, Rongrong, to enter!”
A rousing applause ensued.
At this point in time, Fu Rongrong walked down the red carpet holding onto Master Fu’s arm. She was wearing a wedding gown custom-made in Milan. There was an elated smile on her pretty face. Finally, she was going to marry Brother Qinglun tonight.
— Wow, the bride is so beautiful.
— Old Master Fu, you are so fortunate to have Elder Miss Rongrong marrying Young Master Fu. They are really a match made in heaven.
Everyone was showering them with compliments and a pretty blush appeared on Fu Rongrong’s cheeks.
“Alright, let’s invite the groom to enter!”
Fu Qinglun was about to enter.
Everyone looked upstairs with bated breaths.
