Chapter 108: After Abandoning the Cold Academic God 16 The Flower Language of Endless Summer is—…
After having dinner with Gu Mingjia, Fu Wei went straight back to the Fu family’s old house.
Fu Shen has been waiting for a long time.
The servants were surprised to see Fu Wei, as if they hadn't expected this rebellious young master to return. They had a premonition that something terrible was about to happen, and that the Fu family would soon be facing a storm.
"You're back." Fu Shen looked at Fu Wei with scrutiny. "You're back sooner than I thought."
Fu Wei sneered, "You don't know why I came back so soon. Fu Shen, I didn't expect that there's not a single part of your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, or kidneys that isn't black."
Fu Shen had already received the news. He was very satisfied with Lin Guanchen's awareness of the current situation. He also knew that his unruly child would definitely vent his anger on him, so he turned down all his work early in the morning and waited at home.
"You have to understand that those fondnesses of youth mean nothing. People with different values, no matter how passionately they love, will eventually perish. Only eternal interests are unbreakable shackles."
This is the experience he summed up from his failed marriage, and now he is applying it to Fu Wei.
As for Fu Wei's rejection, in his opinion, it was just like his own rejection when he was young, both of them were deceived by false love. Sooner or later, he would come back.
Fu Shen will never feel that he is wrong.
"So this is why you drove my mom into depression?"
No one dared to mention that woman in front of him for many years.
Fu Shen's face looked a little ugly, his eyes full of disgust and irritation: "Don't mention her to me, we are divorced."
"Heh," Fu Wei said sarcastically, "When I loved her, I was willing to abandon everything and become the enemy of the world. Now that I've achieved success and fame, I can't even mention her. People are truly cold-hearted."
Fu Shen was silent for a moment: "Are you blaming me?"
Fu Wei: “No.”
He came into this world when his parents loved each other the most. He witnessed this unforgettable love, as brilliant as fireworks, and watched this love gradually die out and turn into a mess.
I tried my best to win her back in the beginning, but later I became discouraged and now I don't care.
Before Fu Shen could continue, Fu Wei continued, "I used to feel weird about it, but later I realized it was useless. I might as well do something else with that little time. Now I just feel disgusted and nauseous—"
"I never thought that he once tried so hard to escape from his family and was willing to give up everything in order to marry his beloved girl. Now, for the sake of profit, he is forcing his own son to marry. Don't you think this is the case? The dragon slayer will eventually become the dragon."
Thinking about it now, it’s quite ironic.
Fu Shen's heart was also stabbed uncontrollably.
"Think about what you want to say?" Fu Shen said coldly.
Fu Wei: "Fu Shen, I hate you so much. One day, I will take revenge on you."
Fu Shen was stunned at first, then he laughed sarcastically: "You want to deal with me for that poor student?"
Fu Wei: "No, it's for my own sake. In my life, I hate being forced by others the most. I am not a pawn in your hands."
Fu Shen didn't care. "The moment you stepped into the imperial capital and walked into the old house, you couldn't escape this fate. Fu Wei, you must marry Lu Ningyao, otherwise I guarantee that Lin Guanchen, and even your mother, will not have an easy life."
This shows no mercy at all.
He is indeed the kind of person who can drive even his beloved crazy.
It's really shameless.
Fu Wei smiled sweetly: "Don't worry, I will definitely fulfill the engagement and make sure I live up to your expectations."
Doesn’t Fu Shen care most about this family property and fame and fortune?
He wants Fu Shen to lose everything.
Then he will see if Fu Shen can still be as calm and composed as he is now.
After a period of calm.
Fu Shen suddenly said, "In the future, have less contact with the Gu family."
Fu Wei: "Leave me alone."
Fu Shen: "The Gu family and the Lu family have a bad relationship. You'd better stay away from them. If your marriage is ruined because of this, you don't want to know the consequences."
Fu Shen turned and left.
It’s a pity that this marriage is destined to fail, and the Lu and Gu families will not become enemies. Now the young master of the Gu family and the heir of the Lu family are in dire straits and are inseparable.
Fu Shen's wishful thinking was doomed to fail.
…
Five years later, Mingyang Winery.
Fu Wei sat slowly on the sofa, gently shaking the red wine in her hand, which reflected a beautiful red light under the light, just like the enchanting red mole at the corner of Fu Wei's eye.
Five years have passed, and the originally impulsive boy has shed his immature appearance and turned into a tall and graceful young man. His every move is elegant and noble, and his doll-like face is charming and handsome.
"My dad wants us to get engaged first." Fu Wei lowered his head, took a sip, and spoke lazily.
Gu Mingjia and Lu Ningyao sat together.
Lu Ningyao was lovingly feeding Gu Mingjia some fruit. When he heard Fu Wei say this, he frowned unhappily: "Even after all this trouble, Fu Shen still wants you to marry me?"
Gu Mingjia and Lu Ningyao have been together for many years. They are very affectionate on weekdays. As the number of times they do this increases, they are sometimes unavoidable to be careless and get photographed.
Just some time ago, the media broke the news that Lu Ningyao was entering and leaving the Xinghui Hotel, accompanied by a man with his face covered. The two behaved intimately and stayed in the hotel for a whole day and night before coming out.
Lu Ningyao's image in the outside world was originally that of a bohemian and philandering young master from a wealthy family. In the past few years, he kept saying that he had turned over a new leaf, and everyone even made bets on it. In the end, it turned out that Lu Ningyao really didn't fool around anymore.
So this time, this romantic scandal suddenly became a hot topic, and everyone was betting whether Lu Ningyao had rekindled his bad habits or was dissatisfied with the eldest son of the Fu family.
Because of this incident, the marriage between the two families fell into dire straits.
Gu Mingjia pushed the fruit platter away from Lu Ningyao's hand and said in a cold voice, "Lu Ningyao, I will never go out with you at night next time. It's no use crying. I mean what I say."
Lu Ningyao quickly pleaded for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, it's my fault. Damn it, who knew there were paparazzi hiding there? I won't do it again next time, I won't do it again."
Gu Mingjia: "That doesn't matter. No one will believe it was me anyway, nor will they think that I'm with you. The question now is, what should we do with you and Weiwei?"
Lu Ningyao doesn't want a marriage alliance, and Fu Wei doesn't want a marriage alliance either.
However, although they are all well-known figures in the imperial capital, the elders in their families are still alive, so it is not their turn to interfere in the marriage and they can only accept the arrangements.
Now that the situation outside is so serious, Gu Mingjia is very worried about Fu Wei's situation.
Lu Ningyao was a little annoyed, rubbing his messy hair, and said after a while: "How about we just make it official and declare the engagement annulled."
"No." Gu Mingjia said, "Do you want Weiwei to become a joke?"
A few years ago, Fu Shen abandoned his beloved and chose an arranged marriage, forcing Fu Wei, his original wife, to leave the imperial capital. Now that he has finally returned, his engagement was broken off and his marriage partner turned around and married his arch-enemy.
This was not only a slap in Fu Shen's face, but also rubbing Fu Wei's face on the ground.
Fu Wei naturally understood these principles. After thinking for a moment, he finally gave his suggestions.
"Brother, I plan to get engaged to Lu Ningyao in a fake way, if you agree."
Fu Wei has been studying abroad for many years, and every time when it is late at night, she thinks about how to truly take revenge on Fu Shen.
But as he grew older, he suddenly felt that he wanted something more than revenge.
That is to take the Fu family away and take it for oneself.
He wanted Fu Shen to have to look at his face every day and live under his control.
Fu Shen said a lot of nonsense, but he was right about one thing: if you wanted to truly do whatever you wanted, you had to be respected. So, over the years, Fu Wei secretly founded a company, buying up shares in the Fu Group from its shareholders, gradually eroding the Fu family's wealth.
But a fire was started after all.
Gu Minjia: "What do you want to do?"
Fu Wei explained, "If Lu Ningyao wants to be with you, he has to seize power from the Lu family. If I want to follow my heart, I have to keep Fu Shen under my feet. Since they want to tie me and Lu Ningyao together, instead of resisting and putting them on guard against pressure, it's better to let things take their course and fake an engagement, then slowly seize power."
The idea is good.
Gu Minjia said solemnly: "It's feasible, but the risks are huge."
Fu Wei didn't care: "If you want to win in this storm, you have to take a big gamble, and the result can't be worse than it is now."
Gu Mingjia nodded and said softly: "They are all old."
It's time to abdicate.
A new generation of forces is awakening and growing.
They all have what they want.
Fuwei also has it.
Lu Ningyao always listened to Gu Mingjia, but seeing Fu Wei's serious expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Fu Wei, are you doing this just because you hate Fu Shen for hurting your mother?"
Fu Wei was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood what Lu Ningyao meant, and subconsciously shook her head: "I don't understand."
Gu Minjia and Lu Ningyao looked at each other and sighed.
They can all see:
Fu Wei's mother's departure only made Fu Wei tired of the world of fame and fortune in the imperial capital.
Lin Guanchen's departure truly aroused Fu Wei's desire to win, so Fu Wei returned here without hesitation and got involved in this war.
They don't know Fu Wei's feelings, and perhaps even Fu Wei herself doesn't know how she feels about Lin Guanchen.
Fu Wei only knew that since Lin Guanchen left, he did not dare to take away anything belonging to Lin Guanchen and forced himself not to recall all the memories related to Lin Guanchen.
But in late spring when summer had not yet arrived, I fell in love with the endless summer with lush flowers.
The flower language of Endless Summer is: Even if we are separated in the end, we will be together again.
…
The Fu family and the Lu family are among the most wealthy families in the imperial capital. Even their engagement was unprecedentedly grand, especially since Lu Ningyao had been involved in a scandal some time ago. The Lu family was trying their best to regain their lost face.
Therefore, all the guests at this wedding banquet were prominent figures in the imperial capital. Those who were slightly lacking in status, position, money, or strength would not be able to attend.
All in all, this banquet attracted countless people. It was more like a fame and fortune party with a very purpose than a wedding banquet.
Fu Wei and Lu Ningyao wore high-end dresses of the same color, with jewel beads pinned on their chests. Both of them had top-notch looks, and either one of them would attract countless people to follow her.
But when these two good-looking faces are put together, they look inexplicably weird and don't match at all.
Especially the two main characters had colder expressions than each other, and they were unwilling to even touch each other, let alone hold hands in pretending to be affectionate. Such a festive engagement party was forced to feel like visiting a grave by the two of them.
Soon, someone in the audience said:
"Master Lu and Master Fu, aren't they familiar with each other?"
"Isn't it said that love is deep and profound, and that love is life-and-death?"
"Why do they look like enemies instead of husband and wife?"
Gu Mingjia, who was sitting below, felt helpless about this. How much these two people must dislike each other that they were reluctant to smile while acting.
So when Fu Wei and Lu Ningyao were accepting everyone's blessings with a look of despair, Gu Mingjia mixed in with the crowd and took the opportunity to say, "Hold hands, smile, quickly."
Lu Ningyao and Fu Wei were stunned for a moment, then they had unprecedented tacit understanding and tried to pretend not to hear, but when Gu Mingjia glanced at them, they immediately linked hands with "happy" smiles on their faces.
Lu Ningyao smirked and said, "I love my fiancé very much. You can tell from this wedding."
Fu Wei said with a forced smile, "Yes, he and I are a perfect match made in heaven. We are getting married soon."
In fact, the two people felt like they had eaten a fly.
But other people couldn't notice it and thought the young couple was shy, so they all said auspicious words.
"May you have a happy marriage!"
"What a perfect match, made in heaven."
"We'll grow old together."
Fu Wei nodded: "Thanks to your good wishes, we will definitely do it..."
Fu Wei and Lu Ningyao said a lot of auspicious words and worked very hard. If you didn't know them, you would think they were an old couple who were very happy with each other.
It was an hour later after we had sent those people away.
Thinking that everyone had left, she could take a rest. Just as she was about to break free from Lu Ningyao, Fu Wei suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in her peripheral vision and froze.
In the brightly lit area, there was a young man wearing a white haute couture suit standing there. He had a graceful figure, his eyebrows were as cold as jade, and his glass-like eyes were looking at Fu Wei quietly.
In this noisy environment, the young man seemed out of place and as cold as a handful of clean snow.
It’s Lin Guanchen.
He stood there, staring at Fu Wei. He didn't know how long he had been staring at her, and how many sweet words he had heard from Fu Wei and Lu Ningyao.
