Chapter 19 Consider it a failed investment
Yan Sui stayed at Xu Mocun's house for quite a while and sipped several cups of his tea.
Before leaving, she complained that the teacup was too small and didn't quench her thirst, and asked Xu Mocun to get a bigger teacup next time.
Xu Mocun was so angry that he almost kicked her out of the house.
"What do you know? Tea is meant to be savored!"
Yan Sui ran out of the house, and Sui Sui almost couldn't keep up with her.
Unexpectedly, Fu Qingci was waiting for her on the only way home.
The moment he blocked her way again, Yan Sui was truly enraged.
"A good dog doesn't block the way, why don't you learn your lesson?"
Fu Qingci's handsome features showed helplessness as he softened his voice: "Yan Sui, stop making a scene, okay? Let's talk this out."
Yan Sui scoffed and slapped away his outstretched hand.
The intense pain from the back of her hand caused Fu Qingci's face to contort for a moment, and even tears welled up in her eyes.
He forced himself to stay composed; if a woman made him cry, where would he put his pride?
When did you become so strong?
The last time I slapped him, it wasn't this hard.
Yan Sui looked at her palm. "Is it heavy? Why don't you lean over and I'll try again?"
Fu Qingci: "..."
"Yan Sui, do we really have to be at each other's throats? After so many years of relationship, you're just going to give it up like that? Don't you have even a shred of regret?"
Yan Sui laughed, "What are you going to miss? Miss a scumbag who ate my food, drank my water, used my things, and then repaid kindness with enmity? Forgive you and Yan Mo for smearing me online and labeling me as a third party? Fu Qingci, you and Yan Mo can talk if you want, what does it have to do with me? Have I ever told you I like you once from beginning to end?"
Fu Qingci's face was as dark as a palette of colors, extremely ugly.
Yan Sui always managed to provoke his anger with ease.
"If you don't like me, then what about all the things you did for me?"
Yan Sui scoffed and said sarcastically, "So you know I've done a lot for you? I thought you were blind! What does all that matter? Consider it me raising an ungrateful dog, considering it me being blind to mistake a pile of shit for gold, considering it a failed investment. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Fu Qingci gritted her teeth, her jaw clenched.
"Yan Sui, you're not being rational right now; what you're saying isn't from the heart."
Yan Sui laughed in exasperation. She didn't care who he was and ignored him.
She turned and left, not wanting to waste any more words with him.
Fu Qingci was unwilling to give up and quickly caught up.
"Yan Mo and I aren't what you think. We're just cooperating based on mutual benefit; there's no affection between us!"
Yan Sui chuckled. She realized that Fu Qingci was constantly lowering the bar.
"So, you don't like her?"
Fu Qingci said solemnly, "I don't like her, but she is the daughter of the Yan family, and I need her help. Yan Sui, I thought you could understand me. I don't want to carry the stigma of being an illegitimate child for the rest of my life. I want to be aboveboard. I want to return to the Fu family. I need Yan Mo's help!"
Yan Sui scoffed, "You were born out of wedlock, so why should you get rid of that label? Don't say that your past life is none of your business. As long as you came out of your mother's womb, you're not innocent! Instead of complaining, go home and ask your mother why she gave birth to you knowing she was a third party and knowing you were born out of wedlock."
Her words were sharp as knives, tearing Fu Qingci's face bare without mercy.
Fu Qingci looked at her in disbelief, never expecting such hurtful words to come out of her mouth.
"Yan Sui, you..."
"My mom is so good to you, how could you say such a thing about her!"
Yan Sui forcefully slapped his hand away and warned, "I don't like people pointing their fingers at me. If it happens again, I'll break your legs! If you hadn't mentioned your mother, I would have almost forgotten about her! All those things she took from me over the years, give them all back to me!"
Fu Qingci was furious and accused her: "You are too cruel. You don't deserve my mother's kindness at all."
When it comes to distorting the truth, it has to be him; Yan Sui was so angry she almost laughed.
"How good is your mom to me? She's always coaxing me with money and stuff, and you call that being good to me? Even a reincarnated vampire couldn't have caught anyone to fleece! They say love is where money is, but how much money have you ever spent on me?"
Fu Qingci was rendered speechless by her words, and became furious: "All you ever talk about is money, you're so vulgar!"
Yan Sui raised an eyebrow coolly, "I'm vulgar, I love money. If you don't love money, why are you trying so hard to go back to the Fu family? If the Fu family didn't have money, would your mother have become someone's mistress and given birth to you, an illegitimate child? If you don't love money, why don't you go and recognize a beggar as your father?"
She looked Fu Qingci up and down, wondering if the system was blind to make her fawn over such a man.
"Pah! They're so hypocritical, thinking they're something special."
Even glancing at Yan Sui was considered unlucky, so he immediately took off running.
Fu Qingci was so angry that he lost all reason. He clenched his fist and punched the wall several times, his face turning a liverish color from the pain. He covered his hand and hissed.
The assistant couldn't help but cover her mouth and burst out laughing.
Fu Qingci's eyes widened. "Is it funny?"
He kicked out, and the assistant dodged instinctively.
Fu Qingci's foot missed its mark and landed squarely on a pile of dog poop on the ground.
With a ripping sound, he immediately performed a split.
Qujiang happened to be driving by, so he slowly rolled down his car window.
"Hey, isn't this Young Master Qingci? Why are you out in broad daylight wearing open-crotch pants?"
This thing, and it wants to compete with its second master for power.
He felt ashamed to have such a competitor.
Fu Qingci covered her exposed crotch, her face flushed with shame and indignation.
"Hurry up and help me up!"
The assistant opened his mouth and chuckled.
"I'm sorry, Brother Ci, I didn't mean to, I just couldn't hold it in."
Fu Qingci roared, "Help me up!"
Isn't this supposed to be the most beautiful village? Where did all this dog poop come from?!
The assistant, cowering, stepped forward to help him.
Fu Qingci used his strength to slowly get up, feeling the soreness in her ligaments and hissing.
The assistant dared not look at his gloomy face and could only lower his head.
Looking down, I saw his red underwear.
"Pfft—"
With the force released from her hand, Fu Qingci fell down again.
"Hahahaha, sorry, Brother Ci, I didn't mean to, hahaha, red hahahaha!"
Fu Qingci was both ashamed and annoyed, as his assistant's laughter constantly challenged his self-esteem.
If he hadn't had to cover his crotch, he would have jumped up and slapped him.
"I'm going to fire you! I'm going to fire you!"
The assistant stopped abruptly, took out his phone, and started recording him.
"Fine, I'll fire you then. But before I fire you, I'll let your fans see your red underwear!"
Fu Qingci: "!!!"
A metallic taste rose in his throat, and he gritted his teeth.
"I won't fire you. I'm just too angry. Help me up first."
The assistant snorted, "You said it yourself, Brother Ci, and I recorded it all."
Fu Qingci forced a smile. "I said it."
