Chapter 111: Abandoning the Cold Academic God 19 “Some people may ignore…
"Lin Guanchen, stop talking nonsense. Your brother and I just got engaged."
Not to mention that both the Lu and Fu families are famous families in the imperial capital, and secondly, Fu Shen is still the head of the Fu family today. In order to force Fu Wei to marry, Fu Shen kidnapped Lin Guanchen and forced him to leave his hometown. It can be said that they have a deep hatred for each other.
Moreover, the exposure of Lin Guanchen's identity as the young master of the Lu family also means that Lu Ningyao is no longer the only heir. In this case, it seems that Fu Shen will most likely help Lu Ningyao seize power, and the grudges between them will only become deeper and deeper.
As for the old man of the Lu family, he doesn't look like such a wild and unrestrained person.
Fu Wei suspected that if Lin Guanchen said in person that he wanted to marry his brother's fiancée, Mr. Lu would be so angry that he would hit him with his cane.
So now is not the best time to dissolve the marriage.
Lin Guanchen lowered his eyebrows, his voice muffled and cold, covered with a layer of dust: "Yes, you just got engaged to Lu Ningyao, maybe you will get married soon."
This sounds very sad.
Fu Wei quickly comforted him, "Although I can't cancel the engagement now, but believe me, I will definitely find a way."
Lin Guanchen nodded. "I've waited for five years. If that doesn't work out, I'll be your lover for life. As long as you have me in your heart, I'll try my best to pretend that I don't care, so don't worry about me."
Fu Wei: “…”
He swore that he definitely didn't mean that, so how come Lin Guanchen made him look like a heartless man?
What has Lin Guanchen done in the past five years? How did he, a once aloof and cool academic genius, become like this?
But Fu Wei couldn't resist Lin Guanchen like this, and she felt inexplicably guilty.
Seeing that Fu Wei didn't say anything, Lin Guanchen asked again: "So this is not possible?"
Fu Wei nodded: "No."
Lin Guanchen's drooping brows turned cold, his hands curled up under his sleeves, he clenched his fists tightly, thinking to himself:
Why not? I have already made such compromises.
never mind.
Otherwise, just lock him up.
When Fu Wei left that year, she called him, and he still remembers every word she said clearly.
It was a sharp knife, stabbing hard into Lin Guanchen's heart. Over the years, whenever he moved or thought, bright red blood would flow out of his heart. His body could not bear the burden, and every inch of his skin was torn.
In addition, what happened in Huaicheng after he left Qingcheng caused his temperament to change drastically. He no longer had the bright and cheerful personality of the past. Now, he always couldn't help but have some dark and cruel thoughts in his heart.
Since Fu Wei likes him, why can't she just look at him? Why can't she be unwilling to be locked in bed by him?
Before Lin Guanchen could say anything, he heard Fu Wei say again: "I can't let you wait that long. I've made up my mind. Give me three months and promise to cancel the marriage. Then I'll be with you, okay?"
Lin Guanchen blinked: "Isn't it too hasty?"
Fu Wei smiled and said, "I originally wanted to wait until the storm died down, then join forces with the Lu and Gu families to seize power, kick out that annoying Fu Shen, and then cancel the engagement."
"Before, I didn't have you, so anything was fine. But now that I've agreed to be with you, I can't drag it out any longer. I really want you to be my lover."
"I will definitely be responsible for you, so I've made up my mind, and I'll do this right away..."
Before Fu Wei could finish her words, Lin Guanchen suddenly came forward and hugged her, scaring her so much that she almost thought she was dreaming.
Lin Guanchen actually took the initiative to get close to me?
It's incredible.
But it's true, he dared to confess to me.
If it were in the past, Lin Guanchen would never do this.
Lin Guanchen has changed a lot.
Fu Wei: "What's wrong?"
The beast in his heart was instantly calmed, and those paranoid emotions were hidden under the calm lake water. Lin Guanchen looked deeply at Fu Wei: "I'm just too happy. I haven't been this happy in many years."
"Lin Guanchen, how have you been spending the past five years?" In fact, Fu Wei had wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but he was very scared.
I was afraid that Lin Guanchen was not living a good life, and I was even more afraid that he would blame me.
Lin's mother is blind, and Lin Guanchen has just reached adulthood and has to prepare for the college entrance examination. The mother and son are lonely and stranded in other places. Even with Fu Rong's care, there are bound to be some shortcomings.
Lin Guanchen shook his head: "I'm doing well, don't worry."
Fu Wei was skeptical, so she just asked directly, "Have you adapted to your new school? Are the people around you easy to get along with? What was your score on the college entrance exam? Did you attend... Imperial Capital University? What major did you study?"
Lin Guanchen looked a little uneasy, his eyes flickering slightly as he slowly replied, "Well, I've adapted quite well and it's easy to get along with. Everyone is very nice. I didn't do very well on the college entrance exam, so I went to Yunjing University. I like the environment there. As for my major, I'm studying finance."
The teaching quality of Qingcheng No. 1 Middle School is not bad. Even a student like Xiao Yanjing, who is ranked last in the class, has to start from undergraduate studies. Lin Guanchen's achievements are obvious to everyone. He has always been ranked first in Qingcheng No. 1 Middle School. Logically, his college entrance examination score should have started from 700 points.
Although Yunjing University is also good and is located in Huaicheng, it is far inferior to Didu University.
Even if I perform poorly, I won't end up in a bottom-tier 211 university.
It just means something happened.
Fu Wei looked up at him, and when she saw that Lin Guanchen turned his head away and was not looking at her, she became a little angry. She stretched out her arms, hooked them around his neck, and pulled him down hard so that he was looking at her.
Lin Guanchen: "What's wrong?"
Fu Wei: "You didn't lie to me?"
Lin Guanchen: "I'm not lying to you."
Liar, liar.
Fu Wei didn't expose him and asked again, "Is Yunjing University good?"
"It's nice. If you want, I can take you to see it later."
Fu Wei: "It's a deal."
Suddenly, a sound of asking for a beating was heard in the distance.
"Oh my, the guests haven't all left yet. Even if you want to cheat on me, you should at least do it behind my back. Show some respect to me, okay?"
Lu Ningyao had changed out of his formal suit and was now wearing home clothes. He was leaning slowly on the swing not far away, yawning.
I don’t know how long I’ve been here.
Fu Wei was now annoyed to death by him and said in a cold voice: "The one who is not loved is the mistress, Lu Ningyao, if you can't speak, I don't mind tearing your mouth apart for you."
Lu Ningyao tsk-tsk-tsked and said slowly, "How funny! Do you think I want to come over to see you? If I had the time, I would have gone home with my wife to make out. If the old man hadn't insisted that I take you, oh, and my cheap brother, back to the old house for dinner, I wouldn't have bothered to come."
Today, the old man brought Lin Guanchen and Lin's mother back to the imperial capital. Now that the family is reunited, the old man is very happy. Naturally, he wants to get together with the family and cultivate their relationship.
So there is nothing wrong in asking them to go back for dinner.
Fu Wei: "I understand, you can go now."
Lu Ningyao: "Why are you in such a hurry? I have something to talk to Lin Guanchen about."
Fu Wei frowned: "What do you want to do?"
Lu Ningyao chuckled: "I say, you haven't even gotten married yet, why are you still protecting your son? It's just some small things, I want to talk to him alone."
Fu Wei: "You can't say it in front of me?"
Lu Ningyao said innocently, "Look at you like this, I won't eat him. Oh, by the way, when I came here just now, I saw Uncle Liu looking for you, why don't you go check it out first." He paused, "At worst, I'll talk to Lin Guanchen right away, and then you can let him tell you. Anyway, you two are in the same group, aren't you?"
This was indeed true. Fu Wei looked at Lin Guanchen soothingly and turned to find Uncle Liu.
Lu Ningyao stared at Lin Guanchen, looking him up and down with some indescribable feeling in his eyes, and he couldn't say he was comfortable. Lin Guanchen was also looking at him, with a cold and distant look, without any trace of the pitiful look he showed in front of Fu Wei.
"Young Master Lu, please speak frankly." Lin Guanchen said lightly.
Lu Ningyao was stunned for a moment when he heard this name, then he raised his eyebrows and said, "You have a lot of opinions about me."
Lin Guanchen: “Really?”
Lu Ningyao thought for a moment: "Is it because of Fu Wei?"
Lin Guanchen didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.
Lu Ningyao narrowed his eyes, expressing his understanding. "This is quite similar to me. If my wife was engaged to someone else, even if I knew it was fake, I would still be unhappy. But there's really nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm your brother, and I'm engaged to Fu Wei."
"No matter how unhappy I am, I have to endure it."
The man in front of him is the heir of the Lu family, and he is definitely not as simple as the so-called playboy.
Lu Ningyao is a very versatile person, and he is only sharp-tongued in front of Fu Wei. The two of them have never really been annoyed with each other. Rather than being so-called sworn enemies, they are perhaps more like childhood friends.
This is why Lin Guanchen really cares about Lu Ningyao.
Therefore, ever since Lin Guanchen returned to the imperial capital and made a provocative appearance at his engagement party, it was destined that they could never be true brothers. Perhaps a different word would be more appropriate - competitors.
There must be something fishy about Lu Ningyao coming to see him. He wouldn't just come here to talk nonsense.
"What do you want to ask?"
Lu Ningyao: "Did you manage all those businesses in Huaicheng?"
Lin Guanchen's eyes flashed: "What business? I don't understand."
Lu Ningyao said, "Fuwei believes in you, the old man believes in you, but I don't."
Lin Guanchen: “Really?”
Lu Ningyao: "In order to find you and your son, the old man gave power to my father, your uncle. Over the years, the old man has been developing subsidiaries and businesses in Huaicheng and several surrounding cities, and everything has been very stable. But starting two years ago, everything changed."
"The old man's methods have become swift and decisive, even ruthless. In just two years, he's increased the company's profits dozens of times over. He's even reached out to the Imperial Capital headquarters to insert people in. I originally thought that my father and I weren't doing a good enough job, so the old man wanted to take power. Now it seems that it's all your evil ambitions!"
Lu Ningyao was right.
As early as two years ago, the old man found me and recognized me.
After learning that I majored in finance in college, he gave me the company under his name to practice, and personally led me in business to train myself.
And Lin Guanchen did not disappoint, and he surpassed his teacher.
As for why he didn't return to the imperial capital immediately, it was because he was afraid that without real power, he would be forced to leave his hometown and live in exile like he did five years ago.
Obviously, at the beginning, he just wanted to be with Fu Wei.
He didn't even think about making Fu Wei like him, but Fu Shen forced Fu Wei and himself to do so.
Lin Guanchen was very disappointed with them.
So he wanted to gain power and tried to get involved in the world of fame and fortune in the imperial capital.
He had already made up his mind that after another two years, he would find a way to come back with his real identity and change his engagement partner.
But he didn't expect that Fu Wei and Lu Ningyao's marriage would be so hasty, so he had to leave Huaicheng in a hurry.
Lin Guanchen raised his eyebrows: "Anything else?"
Lu Ningyao: "And this time at the engagement party, you deliberately instigated the old man to bring you in front of everyone. You wanted to tell everyone that the old man still values you the most. You have the old man to protect you, and you came here this time just to fight for the family property!"
Lin Guanchen said indifferently, "How can it be a dispute? I am also a member of the Lu family. I should have half of everything the Lu family owns. I am just taking back what belongs to me."
Lu Ningyao narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered: "Lin Guanchen, does Fu Wei know that you are like this in private?"
Lin Guanchen clenched his fists and said calmly, "He doesn't need to know what I'm like. He just needs to like me. I'll do all the rest for him."
Lu Ningyao said sarcastically: "I underestimated you."
Lin Guanchen curled his lips and said, "Brother, you are so kind."
The way he called him "brother" was so ironic that Lu Ningyao wanted to kill him.
"I'm telling you, you can cancel the engagement, but don't even think about anything else."
Lin Guanchen: "Okay."
Lu Ningyao was almost furious.
How come this person is even more annoying than Fu Wei?
No, he can't lose to Lin Guanchen, otherwise where would he put his face?
If he loses money and power, his wife will definitely despise him and leave him.
Lin Guanchen: "Goodbye."
After saying that, he turned and left.
He could not give up the fight for power. From the very beginning, he had no intention of being friendly with Lu Ningyao.
Only by relying on the old man, taking control of most of the Lu family, and then bringing down the self-righteous Fu Shen, can he and Fu Wei be together forever, and no one can stop him.
…
The old house of the Fu family.
Fu Wei threw a stack of information and reports in front of Fu Shen, then laughed angrily, "Fu Shen, are you still human?"
This information is about Lin Guanchen.
When Lin Guanchen went to Huaicheng, he indeed transferred to a very good school. At first, his grades were unstable because he was not used to it, but not long after, he became the number one in the school.
Later, the college entrance examination results came out and Lin Guanchen scored 725 points, which was enough to get into Didu University.
But at this time, Fu Shen appeared.
In order to cut off all contact between Lin Guanchen and Fu Wei and make him completely stay away from the imperial capital, when filling out the application form, Fu Shen's people found Lin Guanchen and forced him to choose Yunjing University in Huaicheng.
Lin Guanchen was unwilling at first, but he was threatened, tied to a chair in the room, and intimidated in various ways. He did not eat or drink for a day and a night. Finally, for the sake of Lin's mother, he compromised.
Because of this incident, Lin Guanchen is now suffering from a very serious mental illness.
He said why, in just five short years, Lin Guanchen became like this.
Lin Guanchen was really scared. Even though he had promised him that he would be with him, he was still panicked and scared.
It's like a person who has been floating on the sea for a long time holding a piece of driftwood. He finally meets a ship and someone rescues him, but he still can't sleep for the whole night, afraid that when he wakes up, he will be back on the drifting sea.
How much suffering must Lin Guanchen have endured?
And all this is because of Fu Shen.
"It seems you do know." Fu Shen casually flipped through the information without a trace of guilt on his face. He even said earnestly, "Yunjing University is a very good university. He doesn't have to travel with his blind mother, and he doesn't have to go to the imperial capital. This is a good thing. Why are you so angry?"
His nails dug into his palms, and as he watched Fu Shen move slowly, the last bit of father-son affection was completely wiped out.
"Are you human?"
Fu Shen frowned: "Is that how you talk to your father?"
Fu Wei covered her face and laughed.
Fu Shen was stunned for a moment: "What are you laughing at?"
Fu Wei said: "I like Lin Guanchen. I didn't know it before, but I know it now. I like him, I like him so much that I can't help but feel unhappy for the rest of my life without him."
But this so-called father of his was someone who loved him madly when he was young, and then fell in love with someone else in his prime, changed his mind and feelings, and then used his so-called experience to teach him.
How ridiculous and ironic.
He still remembers the smile in his mother's eyes, which slowly disappeared and gradually turned into doubt, anger, hoarseness, fatigue, boredom, confusion and despair.
His mother is such a cheerful person.
Fu Shen: "How stupid."
Fu Wei didn't answer, but her eyes were bloodshot as she asked, "So you love Zhang Ling?"
Zhang Ling is Fu Wei's stepmother and Fu Shen's wife. Their child Fu Chen is seven years old this year.
Fu Shen nodded affirmatively: "Of course, he is my soul mate. We are well matched, our values match, and we like each other."
Hearing this, Fu Wei raised a sarcastic smile and asked, "Do you love the son she gave birth to?"
Fu Shen: "Of course. He will be the future heir of the Fu family."
So Fu Wei can only become his pawn.
Fu Wei took out the paternity test from the pile of information and threw it in front of Fu Shen.
"So what about now? Do you still love him? Would you love a child who has no blood relationship with you and was born by your wife and your driver without your knowledge?"
The man who was sipping tea leisurely just now had an extremely ugly expression on his face, and his hands were shaking as he held the three paternity tests.
One is the identification report of Fu Chen and him, one is the paternity test report of Fu Chen and the driver, and the other is the identification report of Fu Chen and Zhang Ling.
Fu Shen: "Impossible, Fu Wei, you are lying to me! How is it possible!"
Fu Wei sarcastically said, "Why are you so excited? It's just a business marriage. The most important thing between you is profit. So even if the child isn't yours, so what? You've raised him for nine years. You might as well keep raising him. Maybe after you're gone, he'll still be in mourning for you. What a wonderful thing."
The antique teacup in Fu Shen's hand was smashed to the ground. The shattered fragments soon alarmed Zhang Ling who was taking care of the children upstairs.
Zhang Ling frowned and said, "The child is still sleeping, please speak softly."
These words ignited all the anger in Fu Shen's heart. He roared, "Zhang Ling, I've treated you well. Tell me the truth. Whose child is Fu Chen?"
Zhang Ling was stunned for a second and didn't say anything. She just turned around and called the driver, then went back into the house, held Fu Chen in her arms, and walked downstairs.
Judging from the posture, he is actually about to leave.
"Where are you going?" Fu Shen grabbed Zhang Ling and asked.
Zhang Ling: "Since you know everything, let's get a divorce."
After saying that, he shook off Fu Shen and left with the child.
Fu Shen sat back on the sofa dejectedly.
Fu Wei watched coldly from the sidelines, feeling extremely happy.
This is just the first step.
"It seems that your marriage based on personal gain isn't that great, my father."
As if realizing something, Fu Shen grabbed Fu Wei and quickly explained, "Fu Wei, you are my son. After a hundred years, everything I have will be yours. Don't you dislike Lu Ningyao? I won't force you to marry him. You and Lin Guanchen will be together well. Stay by Dad's side from now on and let Dad make it up to you, okay?"
Unfortunately, it's too late.
Fu Wei shook off Fu Shen's hand and looked down at him: "Fu Shen, I can't beat you, and I don't want to fight you anymore, so let's fight to the death."
Fu Shen was horrified: "What did you do?!"
Fu Wei curled his lips: "Something that brought us both disgrace."
Fu Shen shouted angrily, "What do you want to do, Fu Wei, are you crazy? Fu Wei!"
Fu Wei: "Then let's look forward to it."
In an hour, the news of Fu Shen’s divorce will spread, and the entire Fu Group will be affected, causing its stock price to plummet.
One day later, the video and recording of Fu Shen kidnapping Lin Guanchen will be released, and Fu Shen will be taken away by the police.
In three days, all the illegal things Fu Shen has done will be exposed to the world.
Fu Wei can give up Fu Shi, but he will never let go of Fu Shen.
For Lin Guanchen, for his mother, and for himself.
…
Before the news of the divorce spread online, the Gu and Lu families had already heard the news.
Gu Mingjia rushed over immediately. After learning the whole story and what Fu Wei was planning to do next, she frowned and said, "Fu Wei, I know you hate Fu Shen, but you can't sacrifice yourself too. Your last name is Fu too."
Fu Wei poured the wine into his mouth, his voice was lighter than ever before, his eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars, his pretty cheeks were bright and cheerful, as if he was still the boy he was before.
"But I can't wait any longer, and the Fu family has been rotten for a long time. I don't want to take over this mess, so I might as well just overturn it."
Everyone is responsible for what they have done.
Gu Mingjia was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Is it because of Lin Guanchen?"
Fu Wei: "It's for freedom."
No one can trap the sun, and no one can trap Fuwei.
Gu Mingjia was speechless for a long time. He had witnessed Fu Wei's darkest moment of collapse, seen him covered in bruises after being beaten by Fu Shen, and knew the determination in this young man's bones.
So he chose to support it.
"The Fu family probably can't be saved. I will handle the follow-up matters and won't let it affect you. But I think you need to talk to Lin Guanchen."
Fu Wei rubbed his cheek and said in a muffled voice: "I don't know how to put it. It seems that everything he went through was because of me."
Gu Mingjia: "He won't blame you."
Fu Wei rubbed his brows and suddenly said, "I'm not afraid that he will blame me. I can coax him. But right now, there is a bigger problem that needs to be solved."
Gu Mingjia was puzzled: "What?"
Fu Wei asked seriously, "If the Fu family goes bankrupt, will I be forced to beg for food?"
Gu Mingjia: "...You think too much."
Fu Wei: "Brother Minjia, I will follow you from now on."
Gu Mingjia: "Maybe it won't be my turn."
Fu Wei: "What?"
Gu Mingjia joked, "Someone will probably do whatever it takes to lock you up before I do.
