16. I don’t agree with your improper relationship
"If we allow public opinion to continue, it will not only insult Chu Yanhui, but will also bring bad reputation to the Fu family. Grandpa, even if it's not for her, just for the reputation of the Fu family, please let this matter end here."
Fu Zhiju tried hard to look calm. Grandpa hated people who were not calm the most.
But the hand holding the phone was almost shaking.
Because she was gambling, gambling that she could persuade him.
Grandpa doesn't care about what happens to the descendants of a declining family, he only cares about matters involving the interests of the Fu family.
In order to help her best friend since childhood, she had to say something that would satisfy him.
As expected, Mr. Fu thought for a while.
As the atmosphere grew tense, he slowly nodded: "Let me come forward, okay."
She suddenly felt relieved.
At this moment, Fu Qiulei changed the subject. A hint of doubt flashed across his old but vigorous face, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle: "But you have to tell me clearly, does this matter have anything to do with Rong Shen?"
Fu Zhiju's body suddenly stiffened, and disbelief flashed in his eyes.
How could grandpa know!
She didn't say anything, and she deleted the kissing photo with her uncle afterwards. There was no way he could know...
"Sure enough, you're hiding something from me!"
On the sofa, Fu Qiulei caught the subtle change in her expression, and with a sullen face, he threw his wooden crutch hard.
The servant hurried forward to pick it up.
"oops!"
A young woman of about thirty years old came from a distance and stroked Fu Qiulei's chest with her hand: "Master, please don't be angry."
Fu Zhiju was not surprised by this. It was not uncommon in the circle for a wealthy 70-year-old man to have a young and beautiful woman by his side.
She called out symbolically, "Auntie Ping."
Chen Ping was originally a nanny hired by the family to take care of Grandpa's daily life, but later became his lover without a formal relationship...
"Old Sun was transferred to your uncle's place this year to be his personal driver. If it wasn't for his instructions, how could Old Sun have contact with the girl from the Chu family!" Fu Qiulei said with a gloomy face.
"No, they just have business dealings..."
The girl was in disbelief and opened her mouth to say something to save the relationship, but was interrupted by another person's voice.
"Master, I also found a few photos that are widely circulated on the Internet. Look at this one. Why do I feel that this man looks a bit like Rong Shen?"
Chen Ping smiled and enlarged the photo of the man hugging the girl's waist and kissing her deeply on the street corner to show it to Mr. Fu beside her.
"What!"
Fu Zhiju immediately realized that she was holding that photo, panicked, and hurried to grab the phone.
But Chen Ping blocked it without leaving any trace.
As soon as Mr. Fu saw the back of the figure in the photo, he knew it was his son. He was immediately furious, his chest heaving violently: "Asshole!"
Fu Zhiju froze and his heart fell into the abyss in an instant.
broken!
She clenched her fingers, angry and helpless.
He glared at the woman angrily.
This Chen Ping really wants to create chaos in the world!
He used to say bad things about my uncle in front of my grandfather. He finally stopped doing that in the past two years, but now he is holding on to this matter again.
She wanted to make some further excuses, but was glared at by Mr. Fu.
"Xiao Zhiju, don't get too involved with that girl from the Chu family. You're from the Fu family, so stop trying to be so mean!"
She could only admit her mistake: "I know."
"Tell me everything you know, and don't try to hide it from me! Oh, I'm not old enough to be useless."
Fu Zhiju was silent.
She would never say anything that was disadvantageous to Chu Yanhui, let alone report him behind his back.
She lowered her head, looking like she was being trained, and whispered, "...I really don't know anything. If you have any questions, why not ask uncle directly?"
"Good! Very good!"
Fu Qiulei was very angry with her and immediately asked someone to call Fu Rongshen who was abroad.
After answering the phone, he directly asked the other party what his relationship with Chu Yanhui was.
There was silence on the other end of the line for a while.
The air pressure is getting lower and lower.
Finally, Mr. Fu couldn't help but scold: "Chu Yanhui is one generation younger than you! How can you two be so shameless?"
At this moment, the man's deep voice came from the receiver, clear and powerful.
"I know. It's me who wants to be with her. It has nothing to do with her. Dad, I'll explain it to you in person when I get back."
For a moment, Mr. Fu's face turned ashen with anger.
"Fu Rongshen, what kind of women are there in this world? You refused every time I asked you to get married before, and now you're marrying someone from a declining family! Are you trying to bring shame to our Fu family? You're going to piss me off to death!"
"I'm warning you, you'd better break up with her immediately—lest you get yourself into trouble!"
Fu Rongshen heard the hidden meaning in his words and was startled. He almost immediately asked, "Dad, what do you mean?"
"Chu Yanhui has been receiving very bad public opinion online in the past two days. Rumors have been spread about her at such a young age. Your nephew came to me today to ask me to help her."
"public opinion……"
Fu Rongshen's heart skipped a beat. Still holding the mobile phone in his hand, he immediately clicked the mouse to close the computer file and check the domestic public opinion.
The more I looked at his face, the worse it looked, almost blue.
The hand holding the mouse was so tight that veins popped out.
These people... want to die!
Mr. Fu: "I will help her, but it's only because her late grandfather and I were comrades who went through life and death together. It doesn't mean that I agree with this improper relationship between you two! Fu Rongshen, think about it carefully-"
Before he could finish his words, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
“Bang!”
He was so angry that he threw his phone and cursed:
"Asshole!"
After repeated urging from Fu Zhiju, Fu Qiulei posted a video on social media to clarify Chu Yanhui's situation:
"The late General Chu Jianye and I were comrades in life and death, and our two families have long-standing ties. I was deeply angered to learn that someone had recently spread rumors about his granddaughter. The older man in the photo is Lao Sun, my Fu family's driver for over ten years. He was used to pick up the younger generation for family dinners, but someone maliciously distorted the facts. The Fu family will pursue all those who spread the online rumors and those who continue to spread them."
As soon as this video was released, it caused an uproar on the Internet.
Everyone knew that Chu Yanhui had the support of the Fu family, the richest family in Hong Kong, so he didn't need to be on the list of wealthy people.
The rumor was proven wrong.
In less than half an hour, hot searches came one after another.
#The head of the Fu family clarified to Chu Yan#
#The Fu family will investigate thoroughly, and those who spread rumors will inevitably be punished by justice#
#Chu Yan returns to innocence#
As soon as netizens saw Fu Qiulei's comments, they all felt insecure. Anyone who followed the trend and criticized Chu Yanhui deleted their posts and closed their accounts overnight, terrified that they would get into trouble.
[Aaa Sister Liu: I've felt something was amiss for a long time. Just as the Huo family's Qian Jin Gang escaped the infamy, Chu Yanhui was immediately targeted with online trolls. A bunch of people were cursing like they were under a spell. They're just so unhappy with their daily lives that they're taking it out online!]
[Try this: A bunch of marketing accounts go crazy posting anything eye-catching, like dogs. I seriously suspect someone hired a troll army to specifically smear her, hoping to bring her down socially.]
[Yuyu Syndrome: It's so scary. There are so many brainless trolls online! Girls are so easily cyberbullied. (crying)]
