Chapter 129 Chapter 129 Chapter 129
Fu Liying's breathing paused for almost ten seconds.
But his eyes only flickered slightly, and he still smiled.
"Is that so? I have to thank Teacher Gao very much. She helped me a lot when I was in school. Now that I can rarely return to China, I want to go visit her."
He spoke slowly and calmly, a demeanor that one would develop from being in a position of power for so long. However, when he addressed Luo Shizhen, he lowered his eyes slightly, making himself appear somewhat vulnerable.
"It's just that weird things are rampant right now, and I'm not very mobile. Shi Zhen, can you come with me? Teacher Gao must miss you very much."
When Chu Xiao saw this scene, alarm bells rang in his mind.
Sure enough, Luo Shizhen nodded immediately.
"Okay, but I might not be able to go until next month."
Whether it was helping others or visiting Teacher Gao, Luo Shizhen felt it was a great experience.
Teacher Gao was very kind to him, and he had always wanted to go back to his hometown to visit his grandmother's grave. Before, he was busy studying and completing tasks and had no time.
Now that Yong Zhou had been given a long vacation, Luo Shizhen would have almost recovered within this month. When Fu Liying mentioned this, he immediately felt that he could go next month.
Chu Xiao stood beside Luo Shizhen with a cold face, looking at Fu Liying with cold eyes:
"I heard you're the top leader of Country X now. What's going on? Don't you even have someone to push your wheelchair when you go out?"
Luo Shi hadn't watched the news for a long time. When he heard the news, he widened his eyes in surprise and looked at Fu Liying in disbelief.
"Fu Liying, are you the most powerful leader of Country X?"
Chu Xiao's heart skipped a beat when he heard Luo Shizhen's slightly surprised tone.
I said the wrong thing.
Sure enough, Luo Shizhen's face was full of admiration: "You are amazing."
He did not ask "How did you do it?", but instantly affirmed Fu Liying's identity and admired her.
Fu Liying's eyes were as soft as water.
Even an ordinary passerby who doesn’t know Fu Liying, upon hearing this news, might say, “How can a disabled person be the top leader?” or wonder, “How on earth does he operate?”
But Luo Shi really didn't know how to do that. In his eyes, it was just inconvenient for Fu Liying to sit in a wheelchair, and there was nothing else wrong with it.
This is Luo Shizhen.
In his eyes, one is always one and two is always two.
Fu Liying did not look at Chu Xiao, but stared intently at Luo Shizhen.
"It's a long story. Originally, my father was the supreme leader, but... he disappeared."
He lowered his eyes again, and his almond-shaped eyes, which always looked sharp, turned slightly red.
It doesn't look like he was responsible for his father's disappearance.
Fu Liying is actually not short. Even when he is sitting in a wheelchair, his arms are strong, which shows that he exercises his upper body a lot. But when his eyes are red and he looks sad, his adult figure is weakened a little.
Luo Shizhen felt very sympathetic. He also had a grandmother, and immediately thought of how he would feel if his grandmother disappeared, and hurriedly comforted him:
"How could he disappear? Fu Liying, don't worry, just keep looking, and he will definitely be fine."
The handsome young man in the wheelchair shook his head with red eyes:
"There was no time for me to look for him. Country X was in turmoil. After my father disappeared, I took the throne hastily. Some people in Country X protested against my taking the position, so I had to return home in a hurry, hoping to get support from Country Xia... cough cough cough..."
He suddenly started coughing violently, his face turned pale, and the red corners of his eyes made him look even more pitiful.
Chu Xiao clenched his fists even tighter.
Luo Shizhen quickly stepped forward and gently patted his back: "Are you okay? Do you have a cold?"
He remembered that Fu Liying was not in good health when he was in school.
Fu Liying coughed: "Cough cough cough... After returning to China, I've been busy meeting with various important people, cough cough... I haven't slept for 36 hours. Maybe it's because I haven't rested for too long..."
Chu Xiao's face had turned completely dark.
Here we go again.
This person is Fu Liying.
He is insidious and cunning, and is very good at pretending to be pitiful and weak. When he was in school, he used all kinds of excuses such as his leg inconvenience to make advances on Shi Zhen.
But Shi Zhen just fell for his tricks.
He is always soft-hearted and sympathetic to the weak.
It would be difficult for young people to control their temper, but Fu Liying was able to do so.
When they were in high school, Chu Xiao would sometimes get angry about random things, but Fu Liying never would.
Although they were both in their teens, he was extremely experienced and cunning. He showed no sign of weakness without blinking an eye, set traps for Chu Xiao and Zhang Chuan, and sow discord between them and Luo Shizhen.
It's always like that, sitting in a wheelchair, with just a few words, he can make things develop the way he wants.
Every time Chu Xiao faced Fu Liying, he would suffer a loss.
He still remembers that this person said with a disgusting smile:
"Chu Xiao, I really envy you. You're healthy and your grades are excellent. After graduation, you will definitely go to a city like the capital to attend university, right? Unlike me, no matter how well I do in the exams, I can't go far because of my inconvenient legs and poor health. It doesn't matter where I go to school."
"Shi Zhen, after graduation, I might have to trouble you again."
From then on, Shi Zhen decided that after Chu Xiao was admitted to university, he would stay in the big city and not come back.
Luo Shizhen did not distance himself from Chu Xiao because of this. He even thought about it with a blessing attitude. However, at that time, the fact that he and Chu Xiao would drift apart sooner or later had already left a mark in his heart.
Fu Liying never said anything bad about Chu Xiao. On the contrary, he always praised Chu Xiao in front of Luo Shizhen.
Although his family background is not good, he can rely on his own abilities to walk on the road of smooth life.
It seemed like good words, but every word was not only hinting that Chu Xiao would leave Luo Shizhen sooner or later.
It also cut off Chu Xiao's original idea: after being admitted to university, he would take Luo Shizhen to live in a new city.
After all, his family is poor and he can only rely on himself, so how can he bring someone else with him?
——This is too tiring for Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao himself certainly wouldn't think so, but Fu Liying just took root this idea in Luo Shizhen's mind.
Luo Shizhen would definitely not want to drag down his best friend.
The end result will definitely be that he stays in his hometown.
And what about Fu Liying?
Logically speaking, a person who cannot stand up in his life must have self-esteem about his legs, and is likely to have more self-esteem than his peers.
But Fu Liying doesn't want it.
According to Zhang Chuan, this guy not only has no self-respect, but also no face.
Fu Liying kept praising Luo Shizhen for how well he took care of him, and also played the victim in front of Luo Shizhen, saying how the nanny hired by the Fu family was so careless. She took him out on a rainy day and was busy chatting, leaving him in the rain. He wanted to go to the toilet, but the nanny thought it was too troublesome.
He said that he gritted his teeth and refused to go to the toilet at home, and in order to avoid going to the toilet, he did not drink a drop of water for a whole day.
He was simply exposing his most embarrassing side to Luo Shizhen, asking him to sympathize with him in exchange for a little care from Luo Shizhen.
From this incident, we can see how insidious Fu Liying is and how good he is at disguising himself.
If nothing unexpected happens, after graduating from high school, Fu Liying will say to Luo Shizhen in a supplicant's manner, "Please ask him to take care of me professionally."
If Luo Shizhen doesn't agree, he will even direct and perform a series of pitiful performances himself, and eventually coax the kind-hearted and easy-going Luo Shizhen to his side.
After all, this guy, just half an hour after Luo Shizhen agreed to go to the library with Zhang Chuan after class, "fell to the ground in a mess", his forehead bleeding, his palms covered in dust, and he smiled with injuries and said:
"I'm fine, don't worry about me. Don't you still want to go to the library with Zhang Chuan? I can just turn the wheelchair and go to the infirmary by myself."
Chu Xiao saw Zhang Chuan furious with his own eyes, and angrily pointed out the truth, saying that Fu Liying did it on purpose and deliberately didn't want them to go to the library.
Chu Xiao knew that Zhang Chuan was useless.
Sure enough, Luo Shizhen didn't believe Zhang Chuan, and whispered to him not to say such things in front of Fu Liying, and Fu Liying didn't want to do that either.
Chu Xiao knew at that time that Fu Liying had to leave.
If the Fu family had not asked him to study abroad, Shi Zhen would not have been willing to go with him. If nothing unexpected happened, Fu Liying, whose everything was in the hands of his parents, would never have been able to return to China in his lifetime, and he would not have been able to break down like before.
When disguise was no longer useful, he abandoned it without hesitation.
At that time, Fu Liying was like a wild beast trapped in a cage. He had lost all his dignity and was doing what he despised the most, madly pestering Luo Shizhen.
Because he knew very well that once he went abroad, he and Luo Shizhen would never have another chance.
That was Fu Liying's last chance.
Coincidentally, Chu Xiao thought so too.
He added fuel to the fire and wished he could fly Fu Liying away himself.
Everything was fine.
But who could have imagined that a strange event would change everyone's fate.
Fu Liying awakens and regains control of his parents. He even kills his father and returns as a victor.
At this moment, Fu Liying, who had experienced several years of changes and became more and more adept at pretending to be weak, was half leaning in Luo Shizhen's arms, with satisfaction in his eyes.
He coughed weakly and took out a key.
"Shi Zhen, this is a gift... ahem, I'll have it temporarily stored in a factory in my hometown. Here's the key."
Luo Shizhen quickly refused: "No need for gifts, you are already in such pain, you should just rest first."
"No, I do. It was my fault. Although my parents blocked me, the phone was mine and I couldn't stop them. That's my fault, ahem... Also, strictly speaking, this gift isn't just for you. It's for grandma. I only found out she passed away after I came back."
His eyes were red again. "Grandma was very kind to me in the past. She even brought me dried sweet potatoes. These gifts are made by a master who specializes in paper making. He made a villa, a car, and some paper figures and gold ingots. I hope Grandma can live comfortably in the underworld."
When Luo Shizhen heard that it was a paper-made gift for his grandmother, he stopped refusing.
Grandma has always been very kind to his classmates and friends. If she knew that Fu Liying was always thinking about her, she would definitely be happy, right?
He took the key embarrassedly: "Thank you, I'll go back to my hometown next month and I can pay my respects to my grandma. Do you want to come with me?"
Fu Liying immediately replied, "Of course, ahem... I miss grandma too, I want to talk to her."
He coughed, but his eyes looked at Chu Xiao and the other young awakeners beside him, who were vaguely wary.
"Chu Xiao, these past few years abroad, cough cough cough... I missed you guys so much. In my heart, you have always been my friend. I also brought you a gift. Would you like to accept it?"
This time the gift was much more perfunctory, just a diamond pen.
Fu Liying smiled apologetically, "I accidentally broke the pen that Shi Zhen gave you. I've always wanted to compensate you with one, and this is the one I carefully selected."
It would have been better if he didn't say it. As soon as he said it, Chu Xiao remembered that Luo Shizhen gave him a pen on his birthday.
He loved it so much that he took it with him wherever he went, but it was accidentally broken by Fu Liying.
At that time, this guy also had the same expression, saying that he would compensate him and apologized cautiously, as if he was bullying him.
Chu Xiao's body was already feeling irritable due to the familiar nausea, and his features were cold, so it was naturally impossible for him to reach out to take it.
Fu Liying was not surprised either. He just kept handing it over, his handsome face slightly frowning, looking a little pitiful.
He was sitting in a wheelchair, so of course it was impossible for him to stand up and give the other person a handicap. This scene looked like Chu Xiao bullying a disabled person.
No matter how slow-witted Luo Shizhen was, he could tell that the atmosphere was not right.
He looked at Chu Xiao and then at Fu Liying.
Just as he was about to say something, Cheng Yunshao suddenly pushed Chu Xiao.
Although he didn't know what Fu Liying's situation was, after Fu Liying appeared and he had interacted with Chu Xiao a few times, he almost understood what kind of person he was.
Chu Xiao can't put on a cold face now.
After all, Fu Liying kept saying that he considered Chu Xiao a friend. Chu Xiao had a cold face. Wouldn't that give this guy who suddenly appeared an opportunity to play the victim in front of Luo Shizhen?
Chu Xiao was reminded and could only reluctantly step forward and take the pen.
"Thanks."
He looked down at the young man sitting in the wheelchair with a cold expression.
Although he spoke warm words, every word seemed to be filled with ice chips.
"I'm glad you're back."
Cheng Yunshao smiled and continued, "Yes, we are all friends from now on, right, Xiao Shan? Come on, give him a hand and don't tire Shi Zhen out."
Xiao Shan didn't understand why. He didn't want to get close to strangers, but when he heard that it would tire Shi Zhen, he stepped forward, took Luo Shizhen away, and let Fu Liying lean on him.
Rong Nian strode forward and hugged Luo Shizhen's arm:
"Shi Zhen, your friend wants to have dinner with us tonight, right? Should we go to the lake and catch some fish together?"
Lu Qiujin calmly took over the other arm and handed a cherry tomato to Luo Shizhen:
"This is what I just created using my power. Try it and see how it tastes. If it's delicious, I'll add it to your dinner."
Wen Hu didn't get any of their arms, so he could only circle around them:
"Shi Zhen, you haven't stretched yet. Let me help you stretch. Come on, stretch your legs."
Lin Ke covered his face.
But after all, he is also a member of a small team.
He squeezed closer to Wen Hu and said, "How about this, Wen Hu, you help massage the left leg, and I'll massage the right side. Shi Zhen, you sit down. It's more convenient to sit down."
Luo Shizhen answered this and that, and just as he stretched out an arm, he was about to stretch out a leg, and as expected, he soon attracted the attention of his companions.
But he really liked the feeling of being cared for by his friends, and he couldn't help but smile, looking up and smiling at everyone.
The young Purifier was surrounded, very close to him, yet seemed very far away.
Fu Liying, who had been smiling all the time, stopped coughing and laughing.
Chu Xiao was in a better mood.
He sneered, "You've been away for too long. There's no place for you here anymore."
"Yeah?"
Fu Liying gracefully stretched out her hand and adjusted the rough edge of the blanket.
"You've been with him for so long, and you're still a [good friend], aren't you?"
He smiled and looked at Luo Shizhen again, with tenderness in his eyes, as if he saw the only ray of light in the darkness.
"This time, I will never let go."
