Qin Lang and Meng Ruya are getting a divorce, and the newlywed Qin Lu and Fang Yao are not doing much better.
Back at her residence, Fang Yao said, seemingly casually.
"I heard you once pursued that Mrs. Fu?"
Qin Lu, who was working, heard the sound and put down the documents in his hand.
She couldn't have heard about this from hearsay.
"You're investigating me?"
Fang Yao poured herself a glass of red wine, not at all thinking there was anything wrong with investigating his past.
"I just wanted to get to know my husband better."
She was simply curious as to why the Qin and Fu families had fallen out in the first place.
So, he had someone secretly investigate some things.
Unexpectedly, she found out that her husband had actually been interested in that Mrs. Fu.
So it's not hard to see that his decision to join forces with Gu Siting was to compete with Fu Hanzheng for a woman.
However, in the end, they failed to outmaneuver Fu Hanzheng, and the Qin family suffered a great loss instead.
Qin Lu's eyes were filled with anger, but he simply lowered his head and continued working without asking any more questions.
Fang Yao casually swirled the wine in her glass and said.
"However, this Mrs. Fu can even win over Fu Hanzheng, so she must be very skilled at dealing with men."
Therefore, it's not surprising that he was obsessed back then.
Qin Lu pursed his thin lips and did not offer any opinion.
Seeing that he remained unmoved, Fang Yao took a sip of wine and said.
"Come here, you men all like this kind of pure and gentle type, especially the pretty ones."
Undeniably, Mrs. Fu was indeed exceptionally beautiful.
"I advise you not to provoke her, and even more so, not to talk about her behind her back," Qin Lu warned.
That person was no longer the girl he liked.
He only hoped that the Qin family would prosper in the future; he hadn't thought about anything else for a long time.
However, Fang Yao, a spoiled heiress, was not one to listen to reason.
"If Meng Ruya is afraid of her, why should I be afraid of her?"
Some people, even if they soar to the top of a branch, will never become a true phoenix.
Qin Lu was too lazy to persuade her anymore. Fang Yao was always arrogant and wouldn't listen to anything he said.
Fu Hanzheng is someone who can't tolerate anyone saying anything bad about her or showing her the slightest disrespect.
Despite their antics, they will eventually be taught a lesson.
"By the way, what exactly does your aunt mean? The project in the US is stalled, and she can't even help smooth things over?" Fang Yao asked.
Having worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for so many years, and now serving as China's ambassador to the United States, it would be an easy thing for her to say a word for them.
But she wouldn't even help with this small favor.
“My aunt would never use her position to give preferential treatment to the family. You don’t need to bring this up with her again,” Qin Lu said calmly.
My aunt has always been a person who clearly distinguishes between public and private matters, and she can always tell right from wrong when it comes to matters of principle.
She is now the Chinese ambassador to the United States. She spoke up for the Fang family, and if any problems arise with those two projects that just started, it could very well escalate into a diplomatic issue.
Therefore, she definitely won't help with this.
"In that case, what exactly is she doing in officialdom?" Fang Yao scoffed.
“Of course, she has her own goals,” Qin Lang said calmly.
My aunt has always been very clear about her goals, and every step she takes is towards them.
Unfortunately, because of that incident, the relationship between the aunt and niece could never be the same as before.
He and his father had ulterior motives back then, but his grandfather and aunt always cherished the bond between the Qin and Fu families.
But because of that incident, the two families broke off relations, and Grandpa and Aunt were heartbroken.
