Chapter 54 The Fake Young Master's Dog Taming Guide (30) This feeling comes from...
After spending half a month indulging in extravagance with Xie Qiuchen, some not-so-good news arrived: the cooperation between the two companies was finalized, and Xie Qiuchen was about to return to E country.
As the saying goes, it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Fu Li exhibited a strong withdrawal reaction to this.
Thinking of Xie Qiu Chen's wealth, and looking at her own predicament of having her bank account emptied every month, Fu Li finally went to Xie Qiu Chen's hotel the day before he left and mustered up the courage to make her request:
"Uncle, my bank card in China has been frozen, and I can't withdraw any money. Could you... help me?"
Seeing the young man's nervous and awkward expression, Xie Qiu Chen poured him a glass of water and asked softly, "Does Ali want his uncle to give you money?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Li shuddered, her expression instantly replaced by embarrassment.
He had intended to subtly ask Xie Qiuchen for some financial assistance, since it wouldn't amount to much money for him anyway.
Unexpectedly, Xie Qiuchen spoke frankly about his true feelings.
The young man blushed deeply with embarrassment, his voice hesitant, "No... I..."
At that moment, the man opposite him shook the glass in his hand, and the ice cubes made a crisp sound as they hit the glass.
He said casually, "If Ali is hoping to get money from her uncle, I'm sorry, her uncle can't give her a single penny."
Fu Li raised her head, stared at him with wide eyes, her gaze seemingly asking "Why?"
Xie Qiuchen smiled slightly, his eyes dark and gloomy. Even if Fu Li was slow to notice, she could sense a subtle disdain in his attitude, completely different from the almost ingratiating doting he had shown recently.
He didn't understand why. Xie Qiu Chen's next sentence answered his question---
"Ali, you need to understand one thing: your uncle is willing to spend money on you because you are his favorite child. But your uncle's money can only be given to his wife, not anyone else."
Fu Li asked blankly, "Even if I'm your favorite child, it's still not okay?"
Xie Qiuchen gave a helpless smile, then suddenly moved closer to Fu Li, his large hand caressing Fu Li's sensitive earlobe in an ambiguous manner. The young man, who had grown accustomed to the other's intimate gestures over the past few days, did not immediately pull away, but instead stared at him blankly with eyes yearning for an answer.
"Can't Ali tell? What I need isn't an obedient and lovable child. My uncle is getting old and would rather have a beautiful wife like Ali than a child. Can Ali give me that?"
The man's voice was deep and husky, and his eyes were filled with a hidden aggression.
At this point, Fu Li couldn't possibly not know what he meant.
He suddenly pulled his body back, his eyes gradually shifting from blankness to shock and anger.
He shouted, as if making an accusation, "You're my uncle!"
The man scoffed, "Does Ah Li really think so?" As he spoke, his nonchalant expression suddenly turned deep and gloomy, and he grabbed the young man's frail wrist, pulling him back to him.
Their strength was astonishing, and for a moment their faces were completely separated.
Fu Li had nowhere to hide, so he could only look up in terror, letting the man's breath wash over his face.
His sharp, thin lips parted and closed, uttering harsh words: "Ah Li doesn't know, but many years ago I already knew you weren't Yan He's son, and that you had no blood relation to me. For all these years, I've kept this secret, not even telling you. Ah Li, what do you think I did all this for?!"
"Ah Li is always so heartless. I thought I could wait until you came to your senses, but Ah Li has disappointed her uncle so much. She actually rejected her uncle's invitation and instead went to please that little brat Yan Qibai. She is truly shameless!"
The parent, who seemed to know what unforgivable shameful thing their child had done, revealed a furious expression and slapped the young man's soft, pert buttocks hard with their large hand.
Upon hearing this, Fu Li's expression changed drastically, and a look of terror appeared in her watery eyes. She even ignored the burning pain coming from her buttocks.
Xie Qiu Chen actually knew about this? How did he find out?!
Seeing the young man's flustered expression, the man sneered, a sarcastic smile curving his lips.
He pulled out a stack of photos from somewhere, all taken from various angles with a telephoto lens, showing him and Yan Qibai's clandestine affair. Some were shots of a bathroom taken from a high-rise building, some were scenes inside Yan Qibai's office, and some were even glimpses of him peeking through the curtains in a hotel room, sending chills down Fu Li's spine.
When did he start doing this? Why didn't I notice anything at all?
Looking down at the photos of women with shifty eyes and alluring figures, like fairies who had just absorbed men's yang energy, the young man's body began to tremble involuntarily.
"When...did you start stalking me?"
Xie Qiuchen tilted his head back slightly, his expression seemingly long and wistful. If he had a cigarette in his mouth at that moment, he would probably be puffing out smoke, his eyes shining through the white smoke.
“It’s been a long time. Or rather, it’s been since the very beginning of your behavior.”
“At first, I was really angry. But at that time, Ali had already refused her uncle once, so her uncle had no right to tell you to stop.”
"Even so, I still wait for Ali to come to me. As long as Ali asks, there's nothing your uncle can't give you, nothing he can't help you with. But in Ali's heart, he has long forgotten me."
“It was Ali who disowned her uncle first, so don’t blame her uncle for treating her this way.”
He said this. It sounded fair, but he fixed his deep gaze on the young man, looking him up and down as if in an intimate scrutiny.
Fu Li clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her flesh, forcing back all the tears that were about to spill over.
Holding the stack of photos in his hand, he asked, "What will you do if I don't agree?"
Xie Qiuchen's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing the cold and ruthless gaze unique to those in power. "Then don't blame your uncle for threatening you. Whether it's these photos or your affair in E Country, I have ways to get them out. Not to mention that Yan Qibai is searching for you like a mad dog. If Ali could still tolerate him, things wouldn't have turned out like this. What you've done to the Yan and Xie families is enough to put you in prison for life."
Then he changed his tone and said in a gentler voice, "But if Ali is obedient and listens to her uncle, I will satisfy whatever kind of life Ali wants."
Fu Li raised her head and looked him straight in the eye: "What if I said I wanted freedom?"
Xie Qiuchen frowned slightly, giving him a cold look as if he were looking at a stubborn person: "I advise Ali to face reality as soon as possible. I will try my best to satisfy you in terms of material conditions. But I am a businessman, not a philanthropist. Since I want you, no matter how you run away or hide, I will use every means to get you. If Ali is smart enough, he should know what to do."
After saying that, a mocking smile appeared on the man's face: "Isn't Ah Li already used to this kind of thing? Otherwise, she wouldn't have been like a spoiled pet, lying under that brat Yan Qibai! Your uncle doesn't mind that you're not clean anymore, so how dare Ah Li look down on your uncle?!" His words practically described Fu Li as a prostitute waiting to be sold, and his tone unconsciously carried a hint of resentment, showing that he was still angry about this matter, and even a little unwilling.
A hint of despair finally appeared in Fu Li's eyes. He stared blankly at Xie Qiuchen, two lines of tears finally sliding down his cheeks, turning into glistening droplets that dripped from his chin. He pleaded, "Uncle, please, do you really have to force me like this?"
Looking at the young man, who seemed like a child trying to find a way to salvage the situation, the man's cold, icy eyes flickered for a moment. It was as if he saw the boy from years ago who would act spoiled towards him and run towards him whenever he saw him. But he could not shake the overwhelming desire in his heart for the person before him.
This feeling first sprouted when the other person was a teenager, and years of forbearance and unfulfilled desire turned into an obsession that stirred deep within my heart.
The reason he has only observed from the shadows all these years without taking action is because he has a clear goal in mind—he wants to obtain a complete Fu Li that belongs solely to him.
At that time, Fu Li had already followed Yan Qibai, becoming the kept woman of the person he had tormented and humiliated in his childhood. He was nominally his younger brother, but in reality, he was his captive. However, Fu Li also contributed to maintaining this relationship.
As long as he and Yan Qibai remain entangled, even if Xie Qiuchen uses the Xie family's power to snatch him away, it will still give Fu Li the feeling that he still has a way out. And Xie Qiuchen knows him too well; as long as there are other options, the young master will never truly bow down and compromise, and will definitely try every means to use whatever he can to escape from his side.
So he kept waiting. Waiting for the right opportunity, waiting until Fu Li's escape route was completely cut off, waiting until Xie Qiu Chen was the only option left for him.
Now, everything has finally gone as he wished. If he still couldn't embrace the young man, wouldn't all his years of forbearance and dormancy have become a joke?!
Nothing in Xie Qiu Chen's life had ever made him so persistent. The Xie family was one of them, because if he didn't firmly control his family, he would become a fish on someone else's chopping board.
Now Fu Li is one of them. Her obsession with lust, after years of dormancy, has transformed into a raging, ferocious monster. If it is not satisfied, it will tear everything apart.
Therefore, no matter how pitiful Fu Li appears, Qiu Chen will not back down in the slightest.
He lowered his head and, as the young man wept uncontrollably, deeply kissed those lips he had longed for.
