Ning Nanxue and Fu Chen's five-year marriage
was maintained through the complete trampling of her physical and mental dignity.
She thought that even without love, there should at le...
"Of course Dr. Li is a professional!" Xu Zhiru's voice suddenly rose, a hint of panic in her voice. "Ah Chen, don't let your imagination run wild. Dr. Li was recommended to me by a friend I know. He's an expert in treating mental illnesses. I brought you to him for your own good. How can you doubt someone like that?"
"Is it for my own good?" Fu Chen repeated this sentence in a cold tone, "Or is it for your own good?"
"Fu Chen!" Xu Zhiru's voice finally became uncontrollable and sharp. "How can you say that to me? Don't you know how I treat you? How much I have sacrificed for you, have you forgotten? Now that you are feeling a little better, you start to doubt me and question me. Is this how you treat me?"
Xu Zhiru's voice was tearful and sounded extremely aggrieved.
If it were in the past, hearing Xu Zhiru's tone, Fu Chen would definitely be heartbroken and apologize immediately.
But now, there was only numbness and doubt in his heart.
"Zhiru, I don't mean to doubt you. I just want to find out the truth." Fu Chen's voice was still calm, without any emotion. "If you really want to do this for my own good, tell me the ingredients of the medicine and the doctor's information so that I can be at ease, okay?"
On the other end of the phone, Xu Zhiru was completely silent.
This time, she was silent for a much longer time, as if she was weighing, hesitating, and thinking about something.
Fu Chen's heart sank to the bottom little by little.
He knew that Xu Zhiru's silence said it all.
"A Chen, you really don't believe me?" Xu Zhiru's voice finally sounded again, with a hint of despair and sadness.
"I hope you can give me a reason to believe you." Fu Chen's voice was cold and resolute.
"Okay, I understand." Xu Zhiru's voice became choked. "Since you no longer believe me, then there's no point in me saying anything. Let it be."
After saying that, Xu Zhiru hung up the phone.
Listening to the beeping sound coming from the phone, Fu Chen's heart sank completely into an ice cellar.
After Xu Zhiru hung up the phone, the office fell into silence.
Fu Chen sat in the chair blankly, his eyes empty and his mind blank.
He once thought that Xu Zhiru was the sunshine in his life and the only light in his dark world.
But now, he discovered that this beam of sunshine might just be a beautiful lie, a carefully woven trap.
Fu Chen felt an unprecedented fatigue and weakness.
He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down and think carefully about his next steps.
He realized that his current situation was extremely dangerous.
Not only will the company's power be lost, but even one's own health may be threatened.
He must find out the truth as soon as possible and get out of this predicament.
Fu Chen opened his eyes, his eyes full of determination and resoluteness.
He picked up his phone and called Secretary Chen.
"Secretary Chen, please do me a favor, it's a secret." Fu Chen's voice was low and serious.
"Please give your instructions, Mr. Fu." Secretary Chen responded immediately.
"Help me check Xu Zhiru and Xu Zhao's recent call records and financial transaction information. The more detailed the better. Don't let anyone know, including Xu Zhiru and Xu Zhao." Fu Chen ordered in a cold tone.
"I understand, Mr. Fu, I'll do it right away." Secretary Chen agreed without hesitation.
Fu Chen hung up the phone and looked out the window with a gloomy look.
After Xu Zhiru hung up the phone with Fu Chen, her face instantly turned ashen.
She slammed her phone to the ground with a loud bang.
The phone screen shattered into pieces in an instant.
"Damn Fu Chen! He actually dared to doubt me!" Xu Zhiru was so angry that her whole body was shaking and her chest was heaving violently.
She didn't expect that Fu Chen would suddenly become so difficult and sensitive.
She thought that Fu Chen would obey her, loved her deeply, and would never doubt her.
But now, Fu Chen's attitude has obviously changed.
If Fu Chen really found out something, then everything she had done before would be in vain.
No, she couldn't let this happen!
Xu Zhiru took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
She picked up another cell phone and called Xu Zhao.
"Hello, sister, what's going on? Is there any movement from Fu Chen?" Xu Zhao's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Something happened!" Xu Zhiru's voice was a little flustered. "Fu Chen has started to doubt me. He just called me to question me about the medicine and asked me to give him the doctor's information!"
"What? He doubts you?" Xu Zhao's voice also became nervous. "How could this be? Hasn't he always obeyed your orders?"
"I don't know what's going on. He's suddenly become a different person, very sensitive and alert." Xu Zhiru said anxiously, "What should we do now? If he really finds out something, we're finished!"
"Don't panic, sister. Don't scare yourself." Xu Zhao tried to calm himself down. "He's just suspicious, but he has no evidence. Keep your composure and don't show any flaws. Let's see how the situation develops first."
"How can I stay calm? He's already started investigating me!" Xu Zhiru's voice was filled with tears. "I'm afraid he'll find our call records and financial transactions. If he finds out, we're completely finished!"
"Call records and financial transactions?" Xu Zhao frowned. "How could he possibly find these things? Don't worry, we're very careful and won't leave any evidence behind."
"It's better to be safe than sorry!" Xu Zhiru's voice was filled with despair. "What if he really finds out? What should we do?"
"So what if he finds out?" Xu Zhao's voice became fierce. "At worst, we'll burn our boats and directly control Fu Chen to shut him up completely!"
"Control Fu Chen?" Xu Zhiru's voice was hesitant. "How? Increase his dosage? What if something unexpected happens?"
"Increasing the dosage is the best solution!" Xu Zhao's voice became excited. "As long as we increase the dosage, he will completely lose his ability to think and become a fool. He won't be able to find anything. Then, won't he be at our mercy?"
"No, the risk is too great!" Xu Zhiru immediately rejected Xu Zhao's proposal. "The doctor said that long-term, high-dose medication is extremely risky. If something unexpected happens, the consequences will be disastrous. We can't take any risks!"
"It's already this late, and you're still worried about the risks?" Xu Zhao's voice was tinged with impatience. "This is a critical moment, and we must take extraordinary measures. Otherwise, everything we've done before will be in vain!"
"Let me think about it again, think about it again..." Xu Zhiru's voice was a little flustered. She knew that what Xu Zhao said made sense, but she still didn't dare to take the risk easily.
