AIDS?
These three words reverberated in Fu Jingtong’s mind. He stared in shock at Fu Qinglun. “What… what are you saying?”
Fu Qinglun stuck one hand in his pocket, the other swirling his wine glass. Looking at the thick red liquid curve against the bright glass, he smiled and his black eyes landed on Fu Jingtong. “Do you remember the night when Beichen got you drunk and you had a one night stand with a bar girl?”
He remembered
Of course he remembered.
Over the past three years, he had suffered heavy losses at the hands of the multinational corporation Koco. Koco had caused them to lose over 10 billion USD. Along with the problem of Lin Shiyu, he had gone to the bar to drown his sorrows.
He had met Huo Beichen there, who had gotten him drunk. When he woke up, it was already the next morning, and a heavily made-up bar girl was putting on her clothes.
Thinking back, hee had thought that the woman was extremely dirty at that time and had washed himself over and over.
He never thought that the woman would have AIDS!
In retrospect, that night at the bar, the three brothers Gu Mohan, Fu Qinglun and Huo Beichen were all present. So they had teamed up to deal with him.
“Fu Qinglun, you really are too despicable. How dare you harm me like this. I’ll kill you!”
Fu Jingtong pounced on Fu Qinglun. But before he could reach him, two black-clad bodyguards ran up and pushed him to the ground.
With his face plastered to the ground pathetically, Fu Jingtong couldn’t move. He suddenly felt a terrible itch throughout his body, so itchy he had to scratch it.
“Quick, stay away from him. Don’t let him touch you. AIDS is infectious!”
“Never expected Fu Jingtong to get AIDS, how dirty!”
“Lock this Fu Jingtong up immediately. Don’t spread it to everyone else!”
Everyone stared at him in disgust, pointing their fingers at him. He was like a street rat, hated by everybody. Having never been treated so badly before, Fu Jingtong’s blood was boiling in rage.
“Let me go, let me go at once!”
At this moment a bright pair of leather shoes entered his sight. Fu Qinglun had walked over. He bent down and looked down on Fu Jingtong from above and be said softly, “I already know all about the plans you made to kidnap me when I was a kid.”
Fu Jingtong froze, then glared at him maliciously. “I should have killed you that time. You would have been dead if not for Shi’shi! Why are you the one loved by the heavens? Why does Shi’shi love you? I haven’t lost to you, I’ve only lost to Shi’shi!
“Shi’shi was the one who saved you as a kid. Shi’shi was also the one who stole the jade and gave it to you. And it was also Shi’shi who sent you away and gave you a new life three years ago. She even gave birth to a daughter for you and made you a father. What right do you have? Why? I love Shi’shi too. I can’t accept this. I won’t accept this!”
Fu Qinglun scoffed. “Fu Jingtong, You’re just a psychopath who peeps from the shadow. You think Shi’shi will fall in love with you? Stop daydreaming. Shi’shi has already left for Mexico. I will make sure to love and treasure her in the future. That’s right, I’ve already prepared your divorce certificate. She’ll be marrying me soon. She’s going to become my wife!”
Divorce certificate?
Fu Qinglun had already prepared Shi’shi and his divorce certificate. That’s right, with Fu Qinglun’s status now, it wouldn’t be hard for him to prepare a divorce certificate.
But he didn’t want to divorce Shi’shi. He really loved Shi’shi.
“Fu Qinglun, I’ll never let you off!”
Hearing him, Fu Qinglun only raised his handsome brows. “Daydreaming isn’t too bad. You should take this chance to daydream as much as you can, because you won’t have any more time to do so in the future. I’m going to send you to the AIDS hospital. Of course, it’s not for you to seek treatment. Former king of the music industry, Fu Jingtong, you’re still very handsome. The men in the AIDS hospital have been living like monks for god-knows how long and haven’t had a taste of fresh meat in a while. I’ll help you fulfil what you were unable to finish as a kid. I’ll send you there to be… a gigolo.”
What?
A… gigolo?
Fu Jingtong could already see that his future was going to be pure hell. He… He had lost!
He had lost to Fu Qinglun!
He had unknowingly already been on the path to death and destruction the moment the moment Fu Qinglun was back.
“Come, take Fu Jingtong away!” Fu Jingtong stood up and ordered.
Two black-clad men dragged Fu Jingtong away.
Lu Qi’er started trembling from head to toe. Her feet and hands had turned cold as well. If Fu Jingtong had contracted AIDS, it meant that she was infected as well.
She had slept with Fu Jingtong so many times.
When she raised her sleeves to take a look, she saw that there were red spots on her skin as well.
Itchy, it was so itchy!
“Brother Qinglun, please, please spare me.” Lu Qi’er quickly crawled over to him, tears streaming down her face. “I was bewitched by Fu Jingtong. He lied to me. Brother Qinglun, I love you. On the account that we’ve been childhood friends for so many years…”
“Childhood friends?” Fu Qinglun laughed loudly and interrupted her.
His lips curved into a cold and sarcastic smile. “If you hadn’t brought up the fact that we were childhood friends, I could’ve given you an easier death. But now that you’ve mentioned it, I’ve changed my mind. Fu Jingtong and you are a match made in heaven. The two of you… can go and be prostitutes together.”
Fu Qinglun issued their death sentences in a light voice, pushing Lu Qi’er into the depths of despair. There was no escape.
Shaking her head desperately, Lu Qi’er was sobbing with tears coming out of her eyes. “No… no… Please… ah! Please don’t! Please!”
She was dragged away.
…
Fu Jingtong and Lu Qi’er had been dealt with. All eyes fell on Fu Qinglun.
He had struck fear in everyone’s hearts. Young Master Fu was no longer the man he was in the past. Now he was more mature, wiser, thoughtful, more handsome and wealthier. As the Young Master Fu of Castle Guding, who knew how many women were pining after him?
“Young Master, is it time for us to head back to Mexico?” the butler asked.
Fu Qinglun wrung his hands and walked slowly and elegantly to the centre of the stage. The bright lights landed on him. Now all eyes were on him, as though he was a diety.
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming today. As you’ve heard what Fu Jingtong said, I’ll reiterate that the luckiest thing that happened to me in this life was meeting one woman.
“This woman changed my entire life. She taught me what love was, and how to love. Through the passage of time, we’ve suffered and fought and hated because of this love, but we’re still the only one for each other. There will be no one else but her.”
With that, Fu Qinglun looked towards the distance and his lips slowly curved upwards into a gentle smile. “Shi’shi, all these years, other than you I’ve never had anyone else in my heart. You’re the only one for me. Please give me another chance. This time, let’s love each other properly!”
