Chapter 318: Grandfather Who Sees Through Everything
The moonlight from outside poured in, and Shu Yue's face looked much softer under the moonlight.
Fu Jingshen glanced at her hand holding the corner of his clothes, and was moved. "Do you really want me to stay?"
"Then I was just joking?"
As soon as the words fell, Shu Yue saw Fu Jingshen start to take off his coat. He took off his coat, lifted the quilt and lay down in the cold.
He naturally hugged Shu Yue's waist, buried his head in her neck, greedily smelling her unique scent.
"I'm used to having you around. I couldn't sleep well without you these past two days."
Shu Yue touched his head. His hair was very soft and it felt like rubbing a big dog.
"Now you can have a good sleep."
"Well, good night."
Fu Jingshen kissed her face and fell asleep soon.
I had a dreamless night until dawn.
When Shu Yue woke up at eight o'clock in the morning, Fu Jingshen was no longer around. After she woke up for a while, she walked to the window and looked out. The ladder had been removed and moved under the osmanthus tree by the aunt at home.
He should have left from here, right?
After washing up, Shu Yue went downstairs to have breakfast, but met Mr. Bai in the living room.
"Good morning, Grandpa."
"Good morning." Mr. Bai was reading a newspaper. "Were you okay last night?"
Mr. Bai looked at her with a dark, inquiring gaze.
Shu Yue's eyes wandered, "I'm fine? What's wrong?"
He won't find anything, will he?
"The aunt at home said that she found a ladder leaning against the wall of your bedroom at six in the morning. She was afraid that a thief might sneak into your room, so she went to knock on your door. You were still asleep and opened the door for her in a daze. Guess what she saw?"
Mr. Bai's smile was meaningful.
Shu Yue lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him. Why didn't she remember getting up and opening the door? Are you really confused in your sleep?
"What did you find?"
"I noticed you drooling while sleeping."
Mr. Bai smiled and said, "What delicious food did you dream about?"
Shu Yue heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this, and laughed awkwardly, "I dreamed of eating a big chicken drumstick."
"You're right. I'm a little hungry. I'm going to have breakfast first. I'll talk to you after I finish eating."
After saying that, Shu Yue hurried to the restaurant.
She was so scared that she thought Fu Jingshen was discovered when he came to see her in the middle of the night.
But he left before six in the morning?
I didn't sleep for long.
Just as she was thinking about it, a hand suddenly grabbed Shu Yue, and just as she was about to scream, someone covered her mouth.
“Woo woo woo.”
Shu Yue protested and looked back, only to see that it was Fu Jingshen who covered her mouth.
[You didn’t leave?] 】
Fu Jingshen hid in a small compartment next to the restaurant.
"When I came down, grandpa had already gotten up. He had been sitting in the living room for several hours, and the ladder had been taken away."
Fu Jingshen was helpless.
How can he leave?
"You haven't been hiding here for hours, have you?"
"Let me get you something to eat first."
Shu Yue said this and hurried to the kitchen.
Auntie prepared breakfast according to her taste, a sandwich and a glass of milk.
"Auntie, can you make me another one?"
Fu Jingshen was afraid that this amount was not enough for him.
"Have you finished eating?" Old Master Bai suddenly came over and sat opposite Shu Yue.
"I can finish it, of course I can finish it." Shu Yue laughed awkwardly, "By the way, Grandpa, didn't you say you were going to the company today? Why are you still at home?"
"You're heartbroken, so grandpa must spend more time with you. Your parents are busy lately, so it's only me, an old man, who can take care of you." Shu Yue couldn't refuse his reason.
Soon, the aunt made her another sandwich, and Mr. Bai just stared at her and refused to leave.
Shu Yue could only eat first. She finished one portion slowly, and Mr. Bai hadn't left yet.
"Are you full?" Mr. Bai saw that she was reluctant to finish her next portion.
Shu Yue pulled the corner of her mouth, "No, it's still edible."
So under the gaze of Mr. Bai, she ate the second sandwich. When Mr. Bai saw that she had finished eating and stood up to leave, Shu Yue breathed a sigh of relief and asked her aunt to make another one for her.
When the sandwiches came, Mr. Bai came back again.
"Aren't you full yet?"
Shu Yue was about to leave with the sandwich, but now she had to sit back down.
"Still a little hungry."
"Then don't starve yourself."
Shu Yue felt that Mr. Bai knew something and was teasing her on purpose.
She was really full and had no room to eat more. When she was hesitating whether to tell the truth, Fu Jingshen had already walked out of the small cubicle.
"Hello, Grandpa."
Mr. Bai was not surprised to see Fu Jingshen.
"Since you're out, eat the breakfast in Yueyue's hand."
Mr. Bai took the seat opposite.
"Grandpa, have you known he was here for a long time?" Shu Yue asked.
Mr. Bai smiled and said, "I'm not senile. You two have such poor acting skills. You can fool others, but you dare to fool me."
"Xiao Fu's heart and eyes are all about you. Grandpa is not blind. I can see that he loves you very much. How could he cheat on you? You two can't hide it from me."
As early as when the two of them started arguing, Mr. Bai saw through everything.
It depends on how long these two people can endure.
“Then I still acted so hard.”
Shu Yue felt that she had been acting so heartbroken in front of Mr. Bai during this period of time, but in the end he just watched a free show.
Shu Yue inexplicably felt a sense of shame.
"Tell me, why do you want to put on this play?"
Mr. Bai is such a smart man, and something must have happened after seeing such a scene.
Fu Jingshen knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he took the initiative to explain the whole story.
After hearing this, Mr. Bai looked solemn.
"Your mother is also a person who doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. You are much smarter than your elder brother, and you manage the company well. She wants to take the company back from you and give it to your elder brother who just woke up from his comatose state? I really don't understand what she is thinking."
Mr. Bai raised his hand and slapped the table.
"Don't worry, I'll help you with this."
Fu Jingshen is the son-in-law he has chosen for his grandson, and he can't just watch him suffer.
"Grandpa, what are you going to do?" Shu Yue asked.
"Grandpa certainly has a plan of his own."
Mr. Bai's smile was malicious.
This period of time can be said to be like a war.
Shu Yue and Fu Jingshen pretended to break up, while Fu Heming secretly took over some of Shangguan Ling's assets, thinking that he had Shangguan Ling's lifeline and could replace Shangguan Ling. Fu's mother tried to win over the board of directors and asked them to hold the next shareholders' meeting to force Fu Jingshen to give up his position.
The whole family sat together for dinner, seemingly in harmony, but in fact, they all had their own ulterior motives and had already come up with various ideas on how to deal with each other.
“Depth of Field, I’ll go with you to the shareholders’ meeting tomorrow.”
Mother Fu couldn't help but say it first.
Fu Jingshen still looked like he was heartbroken, and said weakly, "Okay."
