Chapter 51, Section 51: Fu Yansheng subconsciously put the small... in his hand...

Fu Yansheng subconsciously put his small backpack aside.

Turning his head, he saw Lin Zhao looking at him with curiosity.

I felt inexplicably guilty.

We mustn't let Lin Zhao see what's inside.

"Nothing much, just some thoughts from Ji Xing about the project," Fu Yansheng said through gritted teeth.

Lin Zhao's interest vanished immediately.

He yawned, glanced at how long it would take to arrive, and then took out his tablet to watch TV.

To make Lin Zhao more comfortable, Fu Yansheng handed her a headrest that he had prepared beforehand.

Lin Zhao waited obediently for Fu Yansheng to put it on her.

After the plane landed, Lin Zhao turned on her phone and immediately replied to Lu Zhou and Kong Ning.

The company car was waiting at the airport early in the morning. As soon as Lin Zhao and Fu Yansheng came out of the airport, an assistant came forward to take their luggage.

"Mr. Fu, Young Master Lin, the meeting at the company is ready. Would you like to take Young Master Lin back to the villa first, or go to the company first?"

The assistant hesitated for a moment before glancing at Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao shook her head: "No need to see me off, Brother Fu has something to do, so let's go to the company first."

Upon hearing this, Fu Yansheng nodded to his assistant.

The assistant understood.

The meeting was about the company's future plans.

Fu Yansheng came here because the project had stalled due to problems.

Although Fu Yansheng did not take it seriously.

But... a prolonged standstill will affect progress.

"If you can't even handle this simple task, you've reached the end of your career."

Fu Yansheng threw the project proposal in his hand directly onto the table in front of him.

The person in front of me was promoted by Fu Yansheng. Later, he was sent abroad for further studies. He only needs to complete a few projects before he can return to the head office and successfully complete his promotion.

But Fu Yansheng never expected that this person would create such a huge mess for him at the crucial moment of the last project.

Fu Yansheng couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

“President Fu, although I handled this project, the company actually involved Second Master. You know Second Master, I really…” The man pretended to be troubled, looking at Fu Yansheng with conflicted eyes.

Above him is Fu Yansheng, the head of the Fu Group, and below him is the second master of the Fu family, who is now in charge of overseas companies.

Can he do that?

The man sighed.

He glanced cautiously at Fu Yansheng, and noticing that Fu Yansheng's expression was off, the man realized that he might have said something wrong.

He hurriedly tried to make amends.

But then she saw Fu Yansheng turn his head and speak softly to the side: "Zhaozhao, have you heard of the second master of the Fu family?"

The second master of the Fu family lived abroad for many years, but there was an incident that caused a great stir in Beijing. Although Lin Zhao had never met the second master of the Fu family, she had heard of his reputation.

Upon hearing Fu Yansheng's words, the man quickly turned to look at the other boy.

Lin Zhao subconsciously turned his head and looked at Fu Yansheng with a puzzled expression, wondering why Fu Yansheng was asking him what he wanted.

But she still obediently replied, "I've heard of it."

Lin Zhao didn't know whether she should tell him what was going to happen next.

But looking at Fu Yansheng's encouraging gaze...

Lin Zhao continued, "Back then, the second master of the Fu family fell in love with a married woman and followed her abroad. I heard that he was waiting for that woman's husband to pass away."

Lin Zhao couldn't even utter the last two words.

The Fu family incident caused quite a stir back then.

However, Lin Zhao wasn't born yet at the time, so she naturally didn't know about this.

But as he grew older, the elders in the family would occasionally bring up this incident when they saw the name of the second master of the Fu family.

Therefore, Lin Zhao naturally knew some of it as well.

This matter was not honorable, and later the second master of the Fu family even followed him abroad.

Besides, these are all things from the father's generation, and have nothing to do with Lin Zhao.

The man standing nearby heard Lin Zhao say this and turned to look at her, but he had never seen Lin Zhao before.

They had no idea who Lin Zhao was.

"And this is...?"

Lin Zhao glanced at him but didn't say anything.

"Do you think I don't know what kind of person Second Master is? I sent you here to train you, but all you do now is make excuses."

Fu Yansheng's expression was indifferent. He glanced at the man and waved for him to get out.

The man noticed that Fu Yansheng's expression was really bad, and although he was annoyed, he didn't dare to say anything.

I have to leave the office.

"waste."

Fu Yansheng rarely uttered a swear word.

Lin Zhao looked up, her eyes filled with doubt.

"Why is Brother Fu so angry?"

I've never seen Fu Yansheng so angry before.

Even regarding the matters concerning the Fu family, Fu Yansheng had never said such a thing.

“I brought him here so that he could be transferred back to headquarters later, but since he came abroad, he has handed over the project to other people.”

All the project proposals were different from those he had given Fu Yansheng before.

Fu Yansheng had not paid attention to him before.

I just want Second Master to take good care of me.

Before Fu Yansheng was young, the Second Master had already gone abroad.

The two had a close working relationship, which is why Fu Yansheng sent his own people to gain experience.

I never expected that someone who was considered hardworking in my eyes would become someone who steals other people's achievements in another place.

If it weren't for the Second Master preventing him from handing over the last project to someone else, Fu Yansheng probably wouldn't have known about this.

This matter is not complicated. Fu Yansheng came here simply to take Lin Zhao out for a stroll.

"Second Master is treating us to dinner tonight. Zhao Zhao, shall I come with you?"

Fu Yansheng asked softly.

Lin Zhao rubbed his sore eyes, yawned, and looked a little sleepy.

It wasn't convenient for him to eat at the meal with the second master of the Fu family and Fu Yansheng.

That is, to politely decline.

"I'm not going. I want to go back and rest. Brother Fu, you can just pack it up and bring it back for me."

Lin Zhao lay on the sofa and took a deep breath.

Fu Yansheng nodded upon hearing this.

"Then I'll take you back first," Fu Yansheng said directly, not giving Lin Zhao a chance to refuse.

Lin Zhao came to the company for a meeting as soon as she got off the plane. She couldn't sleep or eat well on the plane.

In addition, there's the time difference.

So when I heard Lin Zhao refuse, I was surprised.

Fu Yansheng did not extend the invitation further.

The assistant drove Fu Yansheng and Lin Zhao to the villa.

"This is Second Master's villa; he doesn't usually come here."

"The assistant said softly."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao responded with an "oh" and asked her assistant which room she could stay in.

The assistant had already tidied up the room and led Lin Zhao upstairs.

"Brother Fu, I'm going to rest first. Just call me when you come back."

Lin Zhao smiled, pursing her lips.

After seeing Fu Yansheng off, Lin Zhao slept for two hours.

I woke up to find the room completely dark, with no lights outside.

Fu Yansheng has not returned yet.

Lin Zhao found a small blanket in the room, took it downstairs, and carried it with her.

He draped a blanket over his legs, lay down on the sofa, and started reading a novel while holding a tablet.

But after a while, it became boring.

Lin Zhao placed the tablet beside him and tossed and turned in bed.

He had read the novel before, but perhaps because he was jet-lagged, Lin Zhao could only read two chapters before giving up.

He tossed the tablet aside.

He turned on the TV without thinking.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The TV channels kept changing.

Lin Zhao squinted and covered herself with a small blanket.

Suddenly, the door was opened.

A strange man's voice came from outside: "Waaaaah, but I like her, why doesn't she like me? Waaaaah!"

Fu Yansheng felt a headache coming on when he heard this, but he couldn't abandon the person.

After all, he is nominally my second uncle.

"Brother Fu?" Lin Zhao turned to look at the door and saw that Fu Yansheng was being supported by a man. She looked up in confusion.

Fu Yansheng explained to Lin Zhao, "This is Second Master. He's drunk and insists on continuing to drink with me."

There was no other way but to bring the person here.

Lin Zhao nodded quickly, then turned to pour water for the man.

When Master Fu heard Lin Zhao speak, he subconsciously looked up. He was about to wave his hand and say that there were people here, so he should just go home.

As a result, when Master Fu saw Lin Zhao, he was stunned.

Fu Yansheng sensed the difference in Second Master Fu almost instantly.

"Second Master?"

"Who are you?" Master Fu asked anxiously as he helped Fu Yansheng aside.

The way he looked at Lin Zhao was as if he were looking at everyone else through Lin Zhao.

"I am Lin Zhao," Lin Zhao said obediently.

Since Master Fu was an elder, Lin Zhao dared not refuse to answer.

"Lin Zhao... Lin Zhao..." Master Fu murmured.

They look so alike.

Lin Zhao and that person's expressions were too similar.

Even Master Fu couldn't help but take a step forward.

Fu Yansheng, standing beside him, grabbed Second Master Fu and pulled him back again and again.

"?"

Master Fu was puzzled.

Fu Yansheng took a step back, his face even more unsightly: "Second Master, you should go back!"

Upon hearing this, Second Master Fu looked at Fu Yansheng beside him with disbelief.

No, didn't you ask me to come?

? ? ?

Are we kicking him out now?

Before the Second Master could speak, Fu Yansheng pulled him away.

Before leaving, he even smiled at Lin Zhao and said, "Zhao Zhao, I'll take Second Master back first. You should get some rest. Oh, and I left some food for you in the entryway. It's all your favorite food."

Just as Master Fu was about to speak, she reached out and covered his mouth.

They dragged the second master straight out.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao quickly nodded.

Watching Fu Yansheng and the Second Master leave.

Lin Zhao then went to get the food.

*

"Who are your friend's parents?" Master Fu asked Fu Yansheng, as if he had sobered up.

Fu Yansheng pursed his lips, unwilling to speak. His expression was unpleasant.

"You know why I came abroad? When I met her, she was already someone else's wife. For so many years, I only dared to glance at her from afar, never daring to approach her. Later, I heard she was pregnant, and I haven't seen her since. But just now..."

Master Fu paused slightly.

"She looks so much like her."

Master Fu paused for a moment.

He didn't say anything more.

Fu Yansheng was stunned when he heard what Master Fu said.

There are probably many people in the world who look alike.

But what could leave the second master of the Fu family stunned was something else entirely.

Some people sent over to curry favor with the second master of the Fu family.

Many people who looked only three or five parts similar to the second master of the Fu family failed to win his favor.

Some people even underwent plastic surgery to look exactly like him just to deceive the Second Master.

But Second Master could see it at a glance.

But in front of Lin Zhao... the Second Master's glance seemed to have bewitched him.

"How similar?" Fu Yansheng asked instinctively when he heard that the woman was pregnant.

Master Fu took out his phone, opened it, selected a photo, and handed it to Fu Yansheng.

The woman and Lin Zhaoyi had very similar eyes and facial features.

Fu Yansheng felt a surge of suspicion the moment he saw it.

Have you seen her child?
