Chapter 195 Unquenchable Obsession
"Mr. Fu, everything has been cleaned up."
Xing Zhen stood respectfully in the corridor with two subordinates, waiting for the president to inspect the cleaning results.
Fu Chenzhou put his hands in his pockets, looked around expressionlessly, then suddenly paused, raised his hand and wiped the edge of the door frame above his head.
There was also a little bit of red paint, which was hard to spot in the dim light, but he saw it at a glance.
She is incredibly meticulous.
"Clean it up immediately!" Xing Zhen ordered.
"Yes!" The two men immediately took action.
Fu Chenzhou's peach blossom eyes darkened, and he lowered his voice: "Have you found out?"
"Found it."
Xing Zhen lowered her voice, afraid that Jiang Shiyuan inside the room would hear, "The person was found by Jiang Yongxiao's uncle's secretary. That person said that if Jiang Yongxiao goes to jail, the money will be impossible to repay even if he wants to. So he encouraged Mr. Qian from Shenglian to come and collect the debt from Miss Jiang."
Those two beasts originally intended to do even worse, but thankfully you arrived in time, otherwise what might have happened to Miss Jiang... is unimaginable.
Fu Chenzhou's lips curled into a wicked smile as he sneered, "That secretary has no grudge against Jiang Shiyuan, is it really necessary to do this?"
Xing Zhen: "You mean... the mastermind behind this is Jiang Yongxiao?"
The man narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
“Jiang Yongxiao is Miss Jiang’s only remaining relative in the Jiang family, and he’s also her mother’s biological brother. How could this be…”
"What's the value of a biological brother? Father and son are nothing more than that."
Fu Chenzhou's eyes were cold and devoid of warmth. "It is precisely because they are family that we know how to stab someone in the back in the most ruthless and deadly way."
"..." Xing Zhen pursed her lips, turning pale.
He knew that President Fu's relationship with his family of origin was extremely bad. Since graduating from university, President Fu had never returned to the Fu family, and it seemed that he was determined to never have anything to do with the Fu family again.
Mr. Fu only acknowledges one relative, which is his son.
He remained indifferent and aloof to everyone else, even his own mother.
"Doesn't Jiang Yongxiao like to hide from his debts inside? Since he likes to hide, he might as well come out."
Fu Chenzhou turned around, his back to Xing Zhen, and said, "Don't let him be idle while he's inside. Prepare some gifts for Chairman Jiang and send them over."
Xing Zhen understood and nodded, "Yes, I understand."
Fu Chenzhou returned to the room and slowly closed the door.
The living room was softly lit and so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
He paused, only to see Jiang Shiyuan's slender body curled up on the sofa, fast asleep.
It looks soft and gentle, like a white kitten that you can't help but want to tease.
Fu Chenzhou's eyes were dark. He held his breath, walked to the sofa, and stood beside her quietly for a while before finally unable to resist and slowly leaning down.
Her breathing was calm and even. His breath grew increasingly hot, intertwining with hers in subtle ways.
"Jiang Shiyuan," Fu Chenzhou called her in a low, hoarse voice.
"Hmm..." Jiang Shiyuan groaned softly and turned over.
She slept exceptionally soundly.
"Tch, with so much happening tonight, how could you still sleep?"
Fu Chenzhou gently pinched her chin with his fingertips and lifted it slightly, wanting to see this face, which he had secretly looked at countless times over the past ten years, more clearly. "Is it because you are carefree, or is it because I am here that you feel particularly at ease?"
"Jiang Shiyuan, answer me."
He knew she couldn't answer, but he still wanted to ask.
The obsession is hard to shake off.
"Mmm... strawberry cake... I want to eat it..." Jiang Shiyuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, her pale pink lips parted slightly, and she murmured in her sleep.
"Greedy cat."
Fu Chenzhou muttered a low scolding, then took out his phone and called Xing Zhen.
"Mr. Fu." The call was answered quickly.
"That newly opened trendy cake shop on Wutong Road in Beijing opens at 9:30 in the morning. Go there before dawn and line up to buy the first batch of strawberry cakes that come out of the oven. After you buy them, deliver them to Miss Jiang."
Xing Zhen paused for a moment, then immediately agreed, "Yes!"
"You actually believed me when I said there was a strawberry cake."
Fu Chenzhou hung up the phone, bent down, picked up the sleeping beauty from the sofa, and carried her to the bedroom.

The next day, the Xie Group.
After the high-level meeting, Xie Jinghuai took Lin Zhixin back to his office.
"Zhixin, didn't you say you had something to tell me? Go ahead." Xie Jinghuai sat in his leather swivel chair, picked up the coffee that Lin Zhixin had specially brewed for him, and took a sip.
It's fragrant enough, but I always feel it's not quite as good as the one cooked by Jiang Shiyuan.
"Brother Jinghuai, the news of my sister's company's troubles has spread throughout the industry. Her company's reputation is ruined, and on top of that, her uncle has been arrested..." Lin Zhixin bit her lip, hesitating to speak.
Xie Jinghuai frowned irritably, "Zhixin, between us, there's no need to beat around the bush, let's just say what we mean."
"Brother Jinghuai, I'm thinking... did I go too far?" Lin Zhixin lowered her head shyly.
The man put down his coffee cup, raised his eyes, and asked, "What's it to you?"
Lin Zhixin's eyes were red and moist. "Back then, out of consideration for the interests of the Xie Group, I temporarily added that supplementary clause, which led to Yongheng Technology's current heavy debt."
I was thinking, if I hadn't said anything back then, my sister's company... wouldn't be in such a difficult situation.
