Chapter 142 Did I really touch you?
When Pei Jiuyan returned home that evening, he casually mentioned Fu Shangluo. In fact, he already knew about it as soon as Yun Zhaozhao arrived at the police station earlier that day, and he also knew that Yun Zhaozhao had signed a letter of understanding.
Yun Zhaozhao raised her eyelids and glanced at him, then said speechlessly, "Enough, Pei Jiuyan, you know everything, what are you pretending for?"
Pei Jiuyan showed no embarrassment at being exposed, and even said confidently, "Letting him go like this is too easy on him."
"Otherwise what? Neither I nor the child are in any danger, what can you do to him?"
It was beyond her expectations that Fu Shangluo had been locked up for so many days.
"The Fu family has promised not to come after us anymore, and we can just leave each other alone from now on."
Hearing Yun Zhaozhao's words, Pei Jiuyan knew that she was still too naive.
The Fu family suffered such a huge loss this time, they absolutely cannot let it go so easily, but he didn't mention it, just smiled and nodded to indicate that it was fine.
What Fu family? Those messy things don't affect him.
He hasn't dared to mention getting back together with Yun Zhaozhao lately, and he's satisfied with things as they are now. Of course, it would be even better if he could sleep with Yun Zhaozhao, but he knows that's impossible in the short term.
He looked at the child in his arms. Yun Zhaozhao had never mentioned letting the child's father come to see the child since the child was born, and he pretended not to know.
How could Chen Boxu be worthy of such an adorable baby? Xixi is so lucky to have him as her father.
Yun Zhaozhao had no idea how many thoughts Pei Jiuyan had gone through in that short period of time.
On the other hand, the document clearly sensed the change in the Fu family's attitude towards her. She was sent away from the Fu family's old house. When Fu Shangluo was brought back, she was sent away on the grounds that there would be nothing more to do, and it was not appropriate for her to continue living there.
She was asked to get into the car before she even had a chance to say hello to Fu Shangluo.
The clerk clutched his bag tightly; this was what they called a well-mannered family—it was all a lie.
They were all high and mighty, and no one paid her any attention.
Back at Fu Shangluo's house, she finally dialed Jiang Yi's number, but it took him a long time to answer.
"You finally contacted me. I thought you quit."
Jiang Yi's mocking voice rang out, but the clerk knew it was a warning: if he dared to play games with Jiang Yi, he would be dead.
Her collaboration with Jiang Yi was like asking a tiger for its skin.
“I was at the Fu family’s old house before, and I didn’t dare to contact you.”
She didn't know if the Fu family's old house had signal detectors or anything like that. She had always been very cautious, otherwise she wouldn't be alive today.
"I see!"
Jiang Yi suddenly remembered something and said, "I received news that your fiancé seems to be alright now. So, why are you so eager to come back and serve your fiancé?"
The clerk remained silent with a sullen face; she knew Jiang Yi was doing it on purpose.
Jiang Yi is so well-informed, it's impossible that he didn't know he was asked to leave the Fu family home when Fu Shangluo returned.
Even over the phone, Jiang Yi could sense the clerk's resentment. He found it ridiculous that the clerk was hypocritical, wanting to use underhanded means to obtain things that didn't belong to her, while simultaneously complaining that they looked down on her. There was no one else like her who could behave like that.
Not wanting to argue with Jiang Yi, the clerk took a deep breath and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Have you thought it through? Do you want to cooperate?"
She had given him the sincerity he had asked for. Although she didn't know all of Pei Jiuyan's businesses, she did know about two. As a token of sincerity, she had already told Jiang Yi about one of the businesses and Pei Jiuyan's distribution network.
"Working with you seems to be a greater risk for me."
“If Pei Jiuyan finds out, I will be the one he targets, while you will suffer no loss. It doesn’t seem like a good deal.”
Upon hearing this, the clerk immediately realized that Jiang Yi wasn't unwilling to cooperate, but rather wanted to gain greater benefits; this man was simply greedy.
However, apart from Jiang Yi, she can't find a suitable person for the time being.
What else do you want?
"Don't talk like that, we're talking about cooperation."
Jiang Yi said with a grin, "The development prospects in China are very broad now. And since you are now the future daughter-in-law of the Fu family, of course you should use the Fu family's connections to do some business."
Before the clerk could refuse, he said something the clerk couldn't refuse: "Although you have a child in your belly as collateral, you also know that the Fu family doesn't really value you unless you make them unable to leave you. As far as I know, the first and second branches of the Fu family have recently fallen out, which is a good opportunity for you."
Previously, the eldest branch of the Fu family was not short of money, but that may not be the case in the future.
The Yun family's decision to sever ties with the Fu family will severely impact the Fu family's business. With the second branch of the Fu family struggling to survive, it's unlikely they will continue to provide a steady stream of money for the first branch.
The clerk's expression changed: "You'd already planned this all along?"
Jiang Yi even knew about the fight between the eldest and second branches of the Fu family, which clearly shows that he had been eyeing the Fu family for a long time.
She was using him to deal with Pei Jiuyan, and he might also be waiting for this opportunity to establish a connection with the Fu family.
The clerk wasn't a good person to begin with, not to mention her current extremely negative impression of the Fu family. After thinking for a moment, she said:
"I can only introduce you; whether it works out or not is up to you."
"No problem."
The two then formed an alliance.
The clerk was still thinking about how to introduce Jiang Yi to the Fu family. She couldn't even see Fu Shangluo now, but she didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly. Fu's mother actually wanted to see her, and the location was still the Fu family's old house.
After washing up and resting for a night, Fu Shangluo looked much more energetic. Perhaps because he had lost a lot of weight, he no longer looked as kind as before, but rather appeared quite gloomy.
The clerk was stunned for a long time when he saw him.
Today's meal was a family dinner, but none of the family members were in a happy mood. In particular, Mr. Fu's face was not very good. He had also noticed the change in his son and was very dissatisfied with his son's recent behavior.
"Let's eat first."
"Mother Fu spoke up."
After dinner, Mr. Fu called Fu Shangluo to his study, wanting to have a good talk with his eldest son, while Mrs. Fu led the documents to the garden.
After sitting down, she glanced at the document's belly and said casually, "It's been three months, hasn't it?"
"Yes, it's been four months."
The clerk spoke cautiously.
This pregnancy was very difficult for her, and because she had a special procedure, she ended up with twins. She had previously had a miscarriage, and the doctor had told her there would be risks, but she insisted on doing it anyway.
Fortune favors the bold – this was a principle she had known since childhood.
"Document? Did Shangluo really touch you that night?"
"Mother Fu suddenly said."
