Chapter 99 What are you doing? It’s solved now
"I'll tell you, even if you didn't tell me, I could still find you..." Fu Haoyao's proud words came to an abrupt end before he could finish them.
Bai Yan didn't even need to look back to imagine Fu Haoyao's expression at that moment.
There is no worse situation than this -
Knowing that his friend liked Fu Liangxia, he flirted with her behind her back. If he posted this online, he would probably be scolded badly.
He instinctively felt guilty, but because he was worried about pulling the other person's hair, he had to maintain the posture of almost holding Fu Liangxia half in his arms and slowly turned his head.
For some reason, Bai Yan didn't dare to look Fu Haoyao in the eye. He could only see the other person's jaw becoming tense in an instant, and feel the girl under him stiffen instantly.
...This made the inexplicable desire to steal from his heart even stronger.
But it was obvious that they did nothing, and the atmosphere was not even ambiguous. It was completely tense, and Fu Haoyao and Fu Liangxia were not actually in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
Bai Yan didn't understand why he was so nervous and guilty, probably because -
"...What are you doing?" Fu Haoyao's eyes had never been so cold. He stared at the overlapping part of the two people and asked word by word.
"It was an accident. It wasn't what you saw." Bai Yan tried to explain, speeding up the motions of untangling her hair. "I just wanted to get away from her, but we ended up getting tangled..."
He was clearly just retelling the situation, but the more he described it, the more erotic it became.
Fu Haoyao's face turned even darker.
Bai Yan: “…”
Seeing that Fu Haoyao was about to pounce on Bai Yan to fight to the death, Fu Liangxia finally said, "We were just arguing."
She calmly grasped the strand of Bai Yan's hair that was becoming increasingly tangled, and with one hand, she broke it cleanly.
Then she pushed him aside and got out of the car, saying calmly, "It's resolved now."
Bai Yan was left standing there in a daze.
Fu Liangxia's movements were decisive and her expression was natural, leaving no doubt that she had not experienced any emotional fluctuations from beginning to end, and did not care about this seemingly ambiguous behavior.
Maybe it was because she didn't care about being seen by others and had a clear conscience, or maybe it was because she didn't care about Bai Yan at all, so no matter how flirtatious the action seemed, it couldn't shake her.
As for Bai Yan, she threw him into the car without hesitation by breaking his hair, like a piece of discarded waste.
I would rather give up my hair than escape from him.
Bai Yan stared at the strands of hair that fell as the girl moved, and stood there in a daze. The subtle feeling of stealing and the strange throbbing that he had originally felt disappeared.
It was like being doused with ice water from head to toe. His mind suddenly became quiet, and then he felt a trace of panic, as if something had slipped away without him noticing.
My heart feels empty.
On the other side, seeing Fu Liangxia's actions, Fu Haoyao's expression instantly turned from gloomy to bright. Without even glancing at Bai Yan who was sitting in a daze, he said to Fu Liangxia, "If this guy makes you unhappy, I'll help you beat him up."
There is no doubt that if Fu Haoyao has a tail behind him, it can turn into a propeller in the next second.
"Who are you going to beat?" Fu Lang walked slowly towards him from a distance and asked with a raised eyebrow.
Fu Haoyao shut up instantly.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoyao insisted on coming to you. You're just a child. I'll treat you to this meal. I'm sorry to bother you." Fu Haoyao smiled faintly, his words flawless, but the last sentence gave him a hint, "I hope I won't disturb you two."
He was speaking to Bai Yan who was walking out of the car, but his eyes were vaguely looking at Fu Liangxia.
"Of course, it's just work." Fu Liangxia said calmly, but in her heart she was wondering what he was up to.
It was understandable that Fu Haoyao wanted to see her, but she didn't think Fu Langshu would be so boring.
He came here specially to accompany Fu Haoyao. What was his plan?
*
The long corridor inside the restaurant is low-key and elegant, with flowing lights.
Bai Yan was walking in front, and Fu Haoyao couldn't help but go up to him and ask Bai Yan what was going on.
He was irritated at first sight just now, but now that he thinks about it carefully, Bai Yan is not the kind of person who would take away his brother's love, so it must be a misunderstanding.
However, when Bai Yan heard his question, a strange look flashed across his face. After a moment, he said, "There was a little dispute. It was my fault. I lost control of my emotions, so..."
Bai Yan remembered that when Fu Liangxia got out of the car, she reached out and used her collar to cover the scar on her neck so that no one else could see it, and he felt even more uncomfortable.
It was hard to tell whether it was guilt or something else, his chest rose and fell slightly, his throat rolled slightly, and finally he lowered his eyes and said: "Anyway, it's not what you think."
Fu Haoyao stared at his profile for a few seconds, scratched his head, and although he was still a little unhappy, he still suggested sincerely: "No matter what the reason, if you know you did something wrong, you should apologize."
Bai Yan was silent, walking without stopping, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he seemed to finally understand everything and said softly, "You're right, I—"
I don't know when the footsteps around me stopped.
Bai Yan glanced back and saw that Fu Haoyao, who had been walking beside him just now, had run back to Fu Liangxia at some point.
He pushed Fu Langshu away and smiled at her with his eyes curved. "The Spanish food in this restaurant is pretty good. The ham is a must. If you like sour food, you can try it..."
Bai Yan: “…”
He is a dog.
However, after Bai Yan decided to apologize, he never found an opportunity to be alone with Fu Liangxia.
Bai Luo ordered an open-air table on the top floor, from which he could look out over the hustle and bustle of Queens and the hot spring pool trickling in the courtyard below the restaurant.
When they arrived, Bai Luo was already sitting near the outside. Seeing Fu Liangxia, she winked warmly, then raised her hand as a greeting to the uninvited Fu brothers.
"No wonder the old saying goes, 'The more you look at a beautiful woman under a lamp, the more charming she becomes.'" Bai Luo held his chin with one hand, his eyes slightly narrowed as he restrainedly examined Fu Liangxia. He smiled and said, "It's a shame Bai Yan didn't introduce you, Miss Fu, to me sooner."
Bai Luo looked at his new model and became more and more satisfied.
Coming out of school, Fu Liangxia was still wearing her neatly-kept school uniform. Her hair was tucked neatly behind her head, her face simple and elegant, her eyes dark and deep, like a sword hidden in its sheath, cold and sharp.
Bai Yan perked up after hearing this, pretending to be unhappy and glaring at Bai Luo: "She's Xiao Xin and I's model. We're just borrowing her for a day, don't try to get anything out of her."
As he was speaking, he saw Fu Liangxia being pulled by Bai Luo to sit next to her, so he prepared to sit opposite Fu Liangxia, but Fu Haoyao got there first.
Bai Yan: “…”
He had no choice but to walk over and sit next to Bai Luo, leaving the seat opposite Bai Luo for Fu Langshu.
Bai Luo, however, acted as if he hadn't taken his words to heart at all. He glanced at Fu Liangxia again and said meaningfully, "What can I do? I just value her talent. Miss Fu is like an unpolished gem. If she could study at my artist training company for a few months, she might become a famous star. Then, wouldn't she be able to choose any top school in China or abroad? Isn't that a shortcut?"
She seemed to treat Fu Liangxia as an ordinary Saint Lander student with average grades, who had to rely on her family's financial support to study in a good university abroad.
She was right to think so. For most students at St. Lander, this was indeed how they spent their lives.
They maintained decent grades in high school, went abroad to study for a good undergraduate degree, and then got a relatively easy-to-graduate master's degree. After returning to China, they started as middle-level managers in their own group, gradually becoming familiar with the business, and finally taking over the part of the family business they inherited.
For people in this situation who are not heirs of the family, Bai Luoti's path is indeed a shortcut.
However, Fu Liangxiazhi is not here.
She had many opportunities to make a living by relying on her looks in both of her lives, but she never chose them.
——Youth and beauty are fleeting, only a smart mind can last forever.
Fu Liangxia smiled and shook her head, "You flatter me too much."
"I'm definitely not flattering you. I've seen countless models, but rarely anyone as talented as you." Bai Luo pondered for a moment and changed his tone, "My company's star-making process is very mature, the compensation is top-notch in the industry, and there are many private channels for me to meet celebrities..."
Fu Liangxia pursed her lips and said nothing, but her stereotype of these powerful people deepened in her heart.
They always feel that people who are not in the same class as them are trying their best to squeeze into that circle and are willing to sell everything for this. They believe that sexual relationships are the most convenient way for people outside the circle to enter the upper class circle.
Perhaps the worldview of this book was so distorted when it was first shaped, otherwise it would not have been possible to produce a text about class differences under the power of the strong.
Fu Liangxia couldn't help but be distracted for a moment.
However, her distraction had another meaning in the eyes of others.
Fu Liangxia has a high EQ. She knows that if she rejects Bai Luo, she can't make it too awkward, and she can't show that she looks down on the model position.
The reason behind this is naturally not just the job worth 10 million tonight. More importantly, the power of the Bai family is there, and offending Bai Luo is not a wise move.
So she never said anything final from beginning to end, and she smiled gently, making people feel that there seemed to be some room for maneuver.
The smile on Bai Luo's face deepened.
"Don't rush to answer me. Perhaps after tonight's filming, you can sort out your thoughts and decide whether you are suitable for this path." She glanced at Fu Liangxia and said with a curved lip, "But if you ask me, a beauty like you was born to stand in the spotlight."
"I'm really embarrassed by your praise." Fu Liangxia lowered her head while scooping food, blocking Bai Luo's sight.
However, the scattered light from the side falling on her head actually brought out a different kind of beauty.
Bai Luo looked at her with a slightly dimmed look in his eyes. He picked up the wine glass with his slender hands and took a sip. When he was about to say something else, he was interrupted by Fu Langshu who was busy replying to messages on his mobile phone with his head down.
"Bai Luo, this is not very decent of you."
Fu Langshu placed his phone upside down on the table. His eyes darkened as he glanced at Bai Luo's interested expression, but his voice was relaxed.
"I was the first one to spot this young talent. I'm still waiting for her to rise as a rising star in the business world."
"oh?"
Bai Luo and Fu Langshu were not close friends, but they were in the same circle after all. They would often meet at certain gatherings, and he had also heard of Fu Langshu's reputation in the business circle.
A young genius with a unique vision and ruthless means, he has never failed in the business world.
What kind of monster could make such a person say "expectation"?
Bai Luo's eyes suddenly changed when he looked at Fu Liangxia.
She put down the cutlery in her hands and asked Fu Liangxia, "You're so young, and you can interfere in the decisions of our family company?"
"No, Mr. Fu is exaggerating. I'm just helping with some small cases." Fu Liangxia waved his hand modestly.
You are really good at pretending.
Fu Langshu looked at the girl with a kind smile on her face and chuckled in his heart.
If he hadn't known some of the truth and accidentally learned something interesting, he would probably have thought that she was just a simple little white rabbit like Bai Luo.
But what kind of person would secretly find a shell company to transfer his family's shares?
A fox in rabbit skin, more like a fox.
Fu Langshu looked at her pretending with cold eyes.
"right!"
However, Fu Haoyao, who was busy helping Fu Liangxia clean the Australian lobster next to him, suddenly looked up and said something as he remembered something.
"Xiao Xia won't be a model. She's top of our grade and even made it to the retest for the National Mathematics Competition. She doesn't need to take any shortcuts. Studying is her shortcut."
