Chapter 74: Reasonableness prevails; the Fu family owes no favors, especially not to the Gu and Liang families.
While Gu Mingxia and Xiao Yan were enjoying their time at home, quite a commotion was brewing in the Fu family.
The cause was naturally that innocent heiress, Fu Ziyu. After thinking it over, she felt that Gu Mingxia was right. If she kept it a secret from the Fu family, Qian Lingdong would keep harassing her, and she would not know how many people like Liang Yuhao would take advantage of her under the pretext of saving a beauty!
She wasn't the kind of woman who would be kissed by just anyone. Fu Ziyu sat in her room, touching the lips that Liang Yuhao had kissed, her face showing great displeasure. That was her first kiss, the first kiss she had carefully preserved for twenty-two years, and it had been kissed away by that guy Liang Yuhao!
"Ahhh..."
Fu Ziyu touched her lips, lay on the luxurious bed, hugged a pillow to cover her face and rolled around on the bed. Suddenly, she accidentally rolled off the bed and fell to the ground.
"What bad luck! Even you, this silent bed, are bullying me!"
Sitting on the Persian carpet, Fu Ziyu hugged a pillow and leaned against the foot of the bed, her childlike face showing unhappiness.
If I tell my family, my third brother will definitely find out, and then I don't know how he'll punish me!
Thinking about how Fu Heng could go on for two hours straight every time he scolded her, Fu Ziyu felt a headache coming on. Sometimes she really didn't know whether her three older brothers treated her as a younger sister or as a daughter!
"Yes, tell Daddy and Mommy, and let Daddy handle it. That way, Third Brother and the other four brothers won't know!"
Fu Ziyu was very happy with her idea, immediately put down her pillow, and ran happily downstairs.
"Daddy, Mommy!"
As soon as she ran downstairs, she saw Fu Hongchang and Yang Jingyi sitting on the sofa. Fu Ziyu immediately ran to sit between them, took one of their arms, and sweetly called out to them.
"Why is Yuyu still awake so late? Doesn't she have class tomorrow?"
Yang Jingyi risked her life to give birth to five sons before finally having such a precious daughter. Therefore, she would grant Fu Ziyu's every wish and would never refuse her requests. She would spoil her to the extreme!
Fu Hongchang turned his head and looked at his youngest child with affection. He always treated his son and daughter equally, but after all, Fu Ziyu was his youngest child and a girl. Adhering to the idea that girls should be raised with abundance, he absolutely cherished this daughter!
"Daddy, Mommy, I want to tell you something, but you have to promise me you won't scold me after I hear it. I already know I was wrong!"
As Fu Ziyu spoke, her eyes reddened and she lowered her head. When Yang Jingyi saw her daughter like this, her heart broke. She quickly took her daughter's hand, hugged her, and gently comforted her.
"Yuyu, no matter what you do, Mommy will never scold you!"
"That's right, Yuyu, if anything happens, just tell Daddy and Mommy. Daddy and Mommy love you so much, how could they possibly scold you?"
Fu Hongchang is about sixty years old and exudes a refined and elegant temperament. Even though he is already this age, you can still see from his face that he was definitely a handsome and elegant young man when he was young!
"Daddy, Mommy, I've been getting harassed by guys at school lately. They even bother me when I go out to eat. I...I'm so scared!"
Fu Ziyu was actually very scared, but when she was alone with the two bald men that day, for some reason, she told herself that she absolutely could not be afraid and absolutely could not go with them.
She is a member of the Fu family, and the Fu family must not be easily compromised!
Although no one had ever told her these things, she still carried the blood of the Fu family, so the Fu family's legacy was still with her! But only when facing her closest relatives did Fu Ziyu dare to express her fear and dread.
That day, she was really afraid that those two people would forcibly take her away! If that happened, she really felt that she wouldn't want to live anymore!
"Yuyu, are some guys trying to pursue you, that's why they're bothering you?"
Yang Jingyi, being a woman after all, even managed to grab Fu Ziyu's hand and crack a joke when she heard her say those things.
"I really don't know how you act as someone's mother. If a boy were really pursuing Yuyu, would Yuyu be this scared?"
Sometimes Fu Hongchang really didn't know how Yang Jingyi had raised five sons. She was always so careless. If someone tried to win over his daughter, would she be so scared that she cried? Although the Fu family had strict family rules, they did not oppose Fu Ziyu dating in college. After all, dating in college would be a beautiful memory of youth!
"I...Mommy, I'm so scared that those people will keep bothering me, I..."
Before Fu Ziyu could finish speaking, she buried her face in Yang Jingyi's arms and burst into tears. Seeing her daughter's tears, Yang Jingyi's heart clenched, and her eyes immediately reddened as well, tears streaming down her face.
"Yuyu, it breaks my heart when you cry. Sweetie, don't cry, tell Mommy what happened!"
"Yes, Yu Yu, hurry up and tell us! Are you trying to drive Daddy and Mommy crazy with worry?"
Looking at his daughter, who was as delicate as a little white rabbit, Fu Hongchang suddenly realized that his five sons' suggestion to raise a daughter who was so pure that she was not tainted by any worldliness or scheming was actually a mistake!
Look, this family is like wolves and tigers, but their daughter is so delicate and fragile, and now she's being bullied! Fu Hongchang could only watch helplessly, so anxious that he kept giving Yang Jingyi meaningful glances, but Yang Jingyi was too busy comforting her crying daughter to see what was happening to her husband.
"Yuyu, don't cry. Tell Mommy that no matter who bullies you, Mommy and Daddy will help you take care of it!"
Yang Jingyi felt a pang of heartache whenever she thought about her daughter possibly being bullied. Fu Ziyu sobbed in her arms, took a tissue from the coffee table to wipe her tears, then sat up straight and whispered with her head down.
“A few months ago, the school organized an internship program, and I was assigned to the Lingwan Art Center. The internship went smoothly throughout, but at the end of the internship, I met Qian Lingdong, the owner of the Lingwan Art Center.”
At this point, Fu Ziyu burst into tears again. Fu Hongchang was so anxious that he wanted to yell at his daughter, but when he met his wife's fierce warning gaze, he could only watch helplessly, unable to speak or yell!
"Qian Lingdong is about the same age as my fifth brother. He's very handsome and has a refined and gentle demeanor, just like my father. He thought one of my paintings was very inspired, so he asked me to design a set of costumes for their art center. I thought he was very sincere, so I agreed. I happily told my third brother about it, but he told me that Qian Lingdong wasn't a good person and that I should stay away from him. But... I didn't listen to my third brother and stayed up all night designing a set of costumes for him. He was very satisfied... From then on, he started asking me out."
"You...you're dating him?"
Yang Jingyi was very concerned about this issue. Whenever she thought about her daughter possibly falling in love with someone else and getting married to someone else's family in a few years, tears would immediately fall from her eyes.
Fu Hongchang frowned. He had heard Lao Wu mention Lingwan Art Center a few times, and he had also heard of Qian Lingdong. That was not a decent person! How did Yuyu get involved with such a person?
As he was thinking, he looked up and saw his third son, Fu Heng, standing at the top of the stairs. He was about to speak when Fu Heng stopped him with a gesture. He just leaned against the stair railing and listened to Fu Ziyu recount her entanglement with Qian Lingdong.
"No, I have no intention of dating in college. I want to study fashion design in France after graduation. How could I possibly date?" Fu Ziyu said softly, glancing at Yang Jingyi and Fu Hongchang to make sure they weren't angry before continuing.
“Every time he asks me out, I tell him I don’t plan on dating and ask him not to waste his time on me! I thought he would listen to me and stop bothering me, but a couple of days ago he actually sent someone to a Thai restaurant to force me to attend his birthday party… He even said… he said if I didn’t agree to be his girlfriend, he would have people follow me at school every day and pester me until I agreed! Luckily, I ran into Liang Yuhao and Gu Mingxia at the restaurant yesterday, and they saved me! Otherwise… now… now I wouldn’t be able to see my dad and mom!”
After saying that, Fu Ziyu threw herself into Yang Jingyi's arms and burst into tears again. Yang Jingyi was both angry and amused, and could only gently wipe away her tears and try to comfort her.
"You silly child, why didn't you tell Mommy about this?! Just think, if something happened to you, how would Mommy and Daddy live?"
Yang Jingyi simply cannot imagine what life would be like without her daughter. All her thoughts are now focused on her daughter. If she lost her daughter, she felt that she would really want to die!
"I...I won't do it again!" Fu Ziyu whispered her promise. Fu Hongchang wanted to say something, but Yang Jingyi stopped him with a look. She patted Fu Ziyu's hand and chuckled.
"Silly child, if anything happens in the future, tell Mommy right away. With Mommy here, no one can bully our Yuyu!"
"Okay, thank you, Mommy, but... could you please not tell Third Brother about this?"
Fu Ziyu pleaded softly; she didn't want to be scolded by her third brother for another two hours!
"What is it that you're not telling me?"
Fu Heng's voice came over, and Fu Ziyu immediately jumped up and was about to rush upstairs, but Fu Heng grabbed her arm.
"I won't say much else, but there's one thing you need to remember!" Fu Heng looked at Fu Ziyu's uneasy eyes and wanted to scold her, but then he unconsciously softened his tone.
"The Fu family absolutely does not owe anyone favors, especially not the Gu and Liang families!"
