Chapter 91: Living Together Why? I want to go too.
After finishing the conversation, Cheng Xiaobo seemed to remember something and said, "I have invited the most authoritative experts from home and abroad to form a team. Your shoulder will be fine."
Cheng Xingzhou nodded, he knew.
In this world, money can buy everything. Even injuries that would cause disability to ordinary people can be cured.
It may take some time for him to recover. Fortunately, his right hand was not injured, so it will not affect his study and work.
Cheng Xiaobo thought about it and suddenly said, "Why not let that girl live with us?"
Cheng Xingzhou was stunned for a moment, then he heard his father say, "Stay here for a few days. It will be easier for the media to write articles."
He couldn't think of a reason to refuse.
"She probably won't agree." Cheng Xingzhou said.
Cheng Xiaobo said, "I'll arrange it."
After leaving the ward, Cheng Xiaobo went to a nearby hotel to rest. On the way, his secretary reported, "I should have contacted Fu Keren as you instructed. He expressed his willingness to take care of the young master. He also said that as long as it's not disturbing, she can stay as long as she wants."
Cheng Xiaobo pulled up the corner of his lip without a smile: "Not surprisingly, these people from the lower classes who suddenly became rich are just as greedy as I imagined."
The secretary didn't respond, but instead remembered something: "This Fu Keren, it seems he was one of them when we were working on the line."
Hearing this, Cheng Xiaobo was slightly surprised. After a few seconds, he smiled and said, "That's quite interesting."
If he is also a member of their group, then the benefits given to him now will just return to his hands in another form in the future.
…
Not long after Cheng Xiaobo left, Fu Liangxia returned to the ward. Several boxes of breakfast, each with a few spoonfuls of food, lay on the table. It looked like Cheng Xingzhou wasn't too happy with the food.
"Did Fu Haoyao buy it for you separately?" she asked casually. It looked like it was from a different family than the one he brought her.
"I haven't seen him since this morning." Cheng Xingzhou leaned back on the sofa. Because of the angle, one could see his thin collarbone and a corner of his pectoral muscle wrapped in gauze sticking out from his collar.
He said calmly: "Where did you buy breakfast separately?"
Fu Liangxia asked: "Is this the ward meal?"
"It's obvious." Cheng Xingzhou snorted with an ambiguous tone, "In Fu Er Hospital, you are the patient who needs care."
Although it was outrageous, it was very reasonable when I thought that the other party was Fu Haoyao.
She coughed dryly and stopped talking.
But compared to all these trivial matters, she cared more about what Cheng Xingzhou promised her.
She wasn't too surprised to learn that Councilman Cheng had agreed to give her the steel plot in the Blue Ocean Development Zone. What seemed like a huge profit to her was nothing more than a drop in the ocean in the eyes of someone from the Cheng family.
But even this little bit of money that slipped through her fingers was enough for her to expand the Fu family's steel industry.
Coincidentally, half a month ago, she had persuaded Fu's father to give her most of the shares of Fu Steel.
The steel industry is far less profitable than the semiconductor industry, but it was one of the industries that made them rich in the early years. After finding a new direction of development, excluding the funds that could not be moved, almost all the funds on the books were invested by Fu's father in high-tech industries.
He is now fully focused on high-tech and has no interest in managing more things, so he is naturally happy to get rid of this troublesome matter.
——The steel industry has low profits and large investments, and just maintaining it is difficult enough.
At that time, Fu's father also advised Fu Liangxia that if she couldn't run the business, she could sell it as soon as possible, which was better than holding on to it and letting it go to waste.
Fu Liangxia didn't say anything at the time, she just thought to herself that there was no business that she couldn't manage, but it would take some opportunity.
And now, hasn't she finally got the chance she's been waiting for?
Fu Liangxia sank into the sofa, staring at Cheng Xingzhou lying on the bed. His face gradually overlapped with the figure in her dream, making her feel dazed.
She showed a rare genuine smile and said, "Thank you, both for yesterday and today."
"Nothing," the boy said calmly, "I just need your cooperation. Stay at my house for a few days. The councilor needs to arrange for reporters."
He raised his eyes and said, "If you don't want to be involved, it's not too late to regret now."
It's obvious that Councillor Cheng's methods will not be gentle. He only wants to achieve his own goals and doesn't care how Fu Liangxia will be portrayed in the pens of those vulture-like reporters.
But correspondingly, blue ocean projects are also compensation for this situation.
Fu Liangxia naturally knew this, and she had also anticipated what it would be like to be exposed to everyone.
However, she thought clearly that although she could expect public opinion to have both praise and criticism for her, it also unexpectedly meant an increase in her popularity.
When running a business, one is not afraid of exposure, but is afraid of lack of popularity. Perhaps the upcoming public attention will allow her to do something else.
Having considered the pros and cons clearly, and having determined that the benefits of this deal far outweighed the disadvantages for her, she smiled faintly and said, "I won't regret it."
Cheng Xingzhou frowned when he heard that. He should have been happy to have the chance to share a room with her in the future after getting a positive answer, but with it came more complexities.
He was happy that she didn't back down because of these troubles and didn't resist living in their house. Did this prove that she didn't actually reject him?
But Cheng Xingzhou is not stupid. He knows that the conditions offered by Cheng Xiaobo are tempting enough for Fu Liangxia, and he also knows how Fu Liangxia loves power.
So it's not ruled out that she was simply bewitched by profit and had everything calculated. As long as it was tempting enough, even if it wasn't her, Cheng Xingzhou, lying here, but someone else, she would agree.
Thinking of this, Cheng Xingzhou couldn't help but exert force with his fingers, and his eyes dimmed for a moment.
He asked, "Why?"
Why don't you regret it? Is it because of him or because of the interests?
Hearing this, Fu Liangxia met his gaze.
Cheng Xingzhou looked at her, and facing the girl's cold and thoughtful eyes, he suddenly felt afraid.
He was afraid of hearing an answer he didn't want to hear.
But that's probably the answer.
Otherwise, Cheng Xingzhou couldn't understand why she did it for him when he was like a coward and didn't dare to respond to her love. After they met again, he said so many harsh words and did so many things that made her hate him.
When I think about it this way, I feel really bad.
He didn't want to hear her answer.
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a female voice say calmly and naturally: "Isn't this as it should be?"
Cheng Xingzhou was stunned.
"You were injured while saving me, so it's only natural for me to take care of you." Fu Liangxia looked at him, "Why else could it be other than because of you?"
She spoke the most false words in the calmest voice, but her tone was sincere enough to fool anyone.
Cheng Xingzhou didn't expect her to say that.
The best and most unimaginable answer was said lightly by her. Cheng Xingzhou felt as if something suddenly blocked his heart, feeling depressed and a little happy that he had survived a disaster.
He took a deep breath and looked away, his heart pounding.
It turned out that she didn't hate him that much.
*
The fact that Cheng Xingzhou took the blame for her spread like wildfire on various domestic platforms almost as soon as she agreed to cooperate with the show. It was known to everyone almost overnight and even became a hot topic on Weibo within an hour.
It was obvious that it was arranged by Councillor Cheng, but this kind of enthusiasm was just an appetizer for what they were going to do, but it was enough to send a signal, causing the Wang family and those who originally belonged to the Wang family faction to begin to waver.
Cheng Xingzhou's actions were naturally praised on the hot searches, especially since he was an excellent student, handsome, and came from a family with a diamond spoon. He had many fans on Weibo, so there was no need for Councillor Cheng to arrange many water armies. The comments had already become one-sided.
However, the identity of the abuser has not been revealed yet due to the cover-up of the Wang family. Fu Liangxia vaguely feels that if Councillor Cheng really wants to expose Wang Xixi, the Wang family's cover-up will probably be useless.
The current mercy he showed probably had other intentions, such as—
fishing?
Just as Fu Liangxia thought of this, her cell phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at the display screen. It was a completely unfamiliar number, but the beautiful number indicated that the other party had an unusual identity.
"Hello, I'm Wang Hansheng. I don't know if you remember me, but we met at the mall a few days ago."
A gentle male voice came from the receiver. Fu Liangxia tried hard to dig out his memory and remembered that there seemed to be such a person.
She nodded softly to indicate that she remembered.
"I'm very sorry about what my sister did last night."
Fu Liangxia guessed a lot about the intention of this call, but she didn't expect it to be an apology on behalf of Wang Xixi.
She didn't know whether the apology was sincere or just because the Cheng family had started to take action. She just said, "Whoever did it should be held responsible. Since it was Miss Wang Xixi who did the wrong thing, the apology should naturally come from her. What do you think?"
Wang Hansheng paused for a moment, then continued, "Of course, this is natural. We promise to educate Xiaoxi properly later. If you need anything, we will also compensate you."
Fu Liangxia now had some idea of his intention.
It is probably because the Cheng family’s path is blocked and they want her to beg for mercy.
She said calmly, "Compensation is unnecessary. After all, I'm not the one who was truly hurt. Mr. Wang should keep it for the Cheng family. I just don't know if they will accept it."
There was already a sharp meaning in his words.
Wang Hansheng touched his nose helplessly, cursing Wang Xixi in his heart for not being in a clear head and doing such a bad thing. Now he had to find a way to settle it for her.
Because of her childish jealous behavior, the Cheng family caught her and estimated that many people would be killed by them.
It was originally a time of change of leadership, a time of factional game-playing. Now, they didn’t know whether they could successfully win the several positions they had originally set their sights on.
"I will apologize to the Cheng family. I just called today to express my concern for Miss Fu."
Wang Hansheng said, "I don't ask for your forgiveness for what Xiaoxi did, but as her family, we should always show the proper attitude. I've transferred 10 million to your card as a small compensation."
Ten million to buy her life which was almost killed.
Fu Liangxia felt nothing in her heart, she just thought it was ridiculous.
She didn't expect that in the eyes of these high-ranking upper-class people, her life could be so valuable.
She curled her lips and smiled: "Is this 10 million compensation, or is it to buy me to shut up in front of the media?"
"It's just compensation," Wang Hansheng said skillfully. "If this little bit of compensation can make Miss Fu feel better, it will be enough."
I still hope she shuts up.
But unfortunately, the Cheng family gave far more than 10 million.
"Maybe." She didn't say anything definite, fearing that the Wang family would become desperate and do something desperate.
This was originally a war between the Cheng and Wang families, and there was no need for her to get involved.
Of course, she accepted the 10 million with a smile.
Because he returned to China on a private plane, Councillor Cheng did not disclose his itinerary out of concern that his political opponents might carry out terrorist attacks.
So when they returned home, it was quiet. Only the service staff were walking silently in the entire airport, and there was no one to be seen in the huge hall.
When we walked out of the airport, we saw cars sent by various families parked at the door. Naturally, the Fu family did not send a car. They knew that Fu Liangxia would follow the Cheng family's car, but others didn't know it yet.
Su Xingshu sat in the back seat of the Cullinan, rolled down the window and asked Fu Liangxia, "Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Fu Haoyao and Bai Yan also spoke at the same time.
Cheng Xingzhou, who didn't speak, seemed abnormal among the crowd. However, considering that there was Councillor Cheng next to him, everyone felt that there was nothing unreasonable.
However, the next second, the Cheng family's driver naturally took Fu Liangxia's luggage, put it in the back seat, and opened the car door for her.
She first thanked them, then replied to the others: "No, I'll go with the president."
After the words were spoken, the air fell into a strange stagnation.
Su Xingshu stopped playing with his phone and stared at Cheng Xingzhou with a slightly annoyed look. He quickly thought of something and asked, "Are you going to live at his house?"
Cheng Xingzhou looked back and said leisurely, "Yes."
Fu Haoyao's sharp brows furrowed when he heard this, and he said dissatisfiedly, "Why? I want to go too."
