Right when Lin Shiyu was still in a daze, she suddenly saw Fu Jingtong approaching her, almost about to kiss her.
Knock knock, someone was outside of the room.
Someone was knocking on the door.
Why did someone have to disrupt him at such a time!
Fu Jingtong’s face darkened, he sounded annoyed. “Get lost!”
“Young Master,” his underling spoke frantically, “Bad news. Something has cropped up at the Fu Corporation.”
Something cropped up at the Fu Corporation?
The veins on Fu Jingtong’s forehead started twitching, he had no choice but to let go of Lin Shiyu to handle the Fu Corporation’s matters. “Shi’shi, I’ll be back soon.”
Fu Jingtong left the room.
…
In the study room.
Fu Jingtong sat in front of his desk, with his assistant reporting, “Young Master, Koco has sent us a final warning. They’re asking for us to send them the three billion US dollars into their company’s accounts before the clock strikes twelve. If not, they will sue you for commercial fraud and send you to jail.”
Bang! Fu Jingtong lifted the ashtray on the table and smashed it against the wall. How dare this Koco want to send him to jail.
“Have you gotten a loan from the bank yet?”
“Young Master, the bank… is unwilling to give us a loan. We haven’t repaid them for the previous loan of more than ten billion US dollars, we have a problem with our credit rating now.”
Fu Jingtong’s face turned somber. What the hell was he going to do now? He had no way of repaying the three billion US dollars.
“Have you found out who’s the big boss behind Koco?”
His assistant nodded. “We’ve investigated, the President of Koco is a supposed Mr Smithson. We weren’t able to find out anything else other than his name.”
Mr Smithson?
“Young Master–” His assistant faltered.
Fu Jingtong lifted his eyes to look at him. “Just tell me whatever you wanted to say.”
“Young Master, Mr Smithson sent word over. If Young Master isn’t able to come up with the three billion US dollars, you… can…”
“What can I do?”
“You can use Young Madam in exchange of the three billion US dollars.”
Fu Jingtong’s expression changed. “What did you just say?”
“Mr Smithson said, he is going to buy Young Madam over from you with three billion US dollars. Mr Smithson is now in the Capital, and he wants you to send Young Madam over to him personally.”
The President of Koco wanted to spend three billion US dollars just for Lin Shiyu?
Fu Jingtong’s gaze sharpened, when did this Mr Smithson even get attracted to Lin Shiyu?
How dare this Mr Smithson ask for his wife, even asking for him to send his wife over personally. That was the greatest form of humiliation for him.
It didn’t take too long for an idea to sprout in his head. Could this President of Koco, Mr Smithson be… Fu Qinglun?
Fu Jingtong was shocked by that idea in his mind.
When the assistant saw Fu Jingtong’s expression change, he wiped his sweat and gathered his courage to ask, “Young Master, are you going to send Young Madam over in exchange for the money? The Fu Corporation is really lacking in funds now–”
Before his assistant could even finish his words, Fu Jingtong gave him a baleful glare.
His assistant instantly shut up.
…
In the room, Lin Shiyu whipped out her phone to use Wechat. She clicked into the groupchat ‘Queens’.
Little Lemon’s Mama: Mo’er, how’s Little Lemon doing?
‘The Charming Darling’ sent an audio message. Once she clicked it open, Little Lemon’s voice was heard. “Mama, Little Lemon has been good. Little Lemon has been eating well and sleeping early everyday! Little Lemon really misses Mama, muack!”
Lin Shiyu beamed once she heard that, her entire face turning tender and motherly. Little Lemon was one of the only ones who could melt her heart.
Little Lemon… She really missed Little Lemon a lot.
She sent a kissing sticker on the chat.
The Charming Darling: Little Lemon has already gained two pounds! Shiyu, when are you going to come back?
Little Lemon’s Mama: I’ve run into some trouble.
The User Is Typing…: Do you need my help?
An’an finally came online!
Little Lemon’s Mama: Not for now.
The Charming Darling: Shiyu, just shout out to us if you need help. Also, An’an, it’s time to come home soon.
The User Is Typing…: I’ll come back to the Capital in a few day’s time.
Lin Shiyu was about to reply when she heard a sound. The room door was pushed open and Fu Jingtong entered the room.
Lin Shiyu quickly quit the application and put her phone away. She then lifted her eyes to look at Fu Jingtong. “You’ve finished handling all your matters?”
Fu Jingtong didn’t pounce over this time, he just stood by the door and looked at her, his gaze as vicious as a venomous snake. “Pack up, we’re leaving for the Capital right away.”
“The Capital? Why are we heading there?” Lin Shiyu asked with her guard raised.
“The President of Koco, Mr Smithson has offered three billion US dollars in exchange for you. I’ve decided to accept the offer and send you over to him.”
What?
Lin Shiyu gave Fu Jingtong a cold-eyed stare and smirked. “Just awhile ago, you claimed that I was your wife. Now it takes only a few moments for you to decide to send your wife onto another man’s bed. Fu Jingtong, you’re selling out your wife once you’re out of money. You’re really the scummiest of all scumbags!”
“…”
Fu Jingtong had witnessed this woman’s outspoken ways since a long time ago and he wasn’t angry at her words. All he did was chuckle.
Lin Shiyu could sense something suspicious with Fu Jingtong, he seemed to be hiding something from her.
Whoever that President of Koco was to spend three billion US dollars just to get her, did they even ask for her opinion?
These men were really disgusting. Did they think she was going to just lie there idly and allow them to treat her like a gambling chip?
Just because Fu Jingtong wasn’t able to come up with the three billion US dollars. How dare he even think about really sending her onto that Mr Smithson’s bed?
She walked to the door. “Whatever goes on between the two of you is none of my business. I’ll never get in that Mr Smithson’s bed, let alone sleep with him and pleasure him. You’re out of your mind!”
Fu Jingtong stretched his arm out, grasping her wrist forcefully to stop her from leaving. “Shi’shi, are you really not acquainted with Mr Smithson?”
“What do you even mean? Is Mr Smithson is one of my acquaintances?” Lin Shiyu questioned him instead.
The woman’s pupils were clear and bright, she didn’t appear to be lying at all. Fu Jingtong took a moment to think about it before he continued saying, “Mr Smithson has made it clear he wants you. My Shi’shi, you’re really charming, I don’t care whether you’re willing to do it or not, I’m going to send you to the Capital no matter what happens.”
“Fu Jingtong, even if you really dare to send me over, I’ll kick Mr Smithson in his crotch and incapacitate him for life. Once he becomes impotent, I’m certain Mr Smithson will never let you off!” Lin Shiyu hissed at him angrily.
Her words had Fu Jingtong even more excited, his lips curved into a smile. “Shi’shi, I’ll be looking forward to seeing how Mr Smithson will become impotent under your hands then.”
“You!” Lin Shiyu was bent on getting away from him.
Fu Jingtong struck her on the back of her head, and Lin Shiyu’s vision went dark and she fainted.
…
In the Capital.
The auction that had captured the attention of all wealthy families was held at the Royal Auction House. Many luxury cars had arrived and they were all parked on the lawn.
The cars only got more luxurious as more people arrived. They were all business magnates who were attending the auction in order to bid for a collaboration with the newly renowned King-back.
