Chapter 288 Tangled



Rong Bing put her arm around Fu Jingchen's waist: "Jingchen, can we not leave today?"

Fu Jingchen gently held the back of the woman's head and said in a tender tone, "Okay, Bingbing, we're not leaving today. Tell Auntie to stay at a hotel later."

Rong Bing nodded happily, immediately sent a message to her aunt, and transferred the housing fee.

"Jing Chen." Rong Bing's eyes were glazed as she reached out to unbutton the man's shirt.

Fu Jingchen held the woman's waist, picked her up, and placed her on a chair.

The two were entangled.

A few minutes later, the doorbell rang.

Rong Bing pretended not to hear, but the people outside seemed to know that someone was inside and deliberately wouldn't open the door, so they started banging on it.

Fu Jingchen, annoyed by the noise, pulled away from the woman and asked, "Who is it? Do you have any friends here?"

Rong Bing shook her head: "No, maybe Auntie is back. Jing Chen, hurry up and get ready."

Fu Jingchen put on his clothes, picked up the tissues from the ground and put them in the trash can, and then tidied his hair.

Rong Bing tidied herself up in front of the mirror before going to open the door.

Outside, Rong Yan and the others discussed, "Isn't she home? But the gate to the yard isn't locked."

"It should be there; the stove in the yard is burning."

"Could she be asleep and not hear me?"

"Tap it again."

Fu Jingsheng and Ye Jianming knocked on the door at the same time.

After a while, the door finally opened.

Rong Bing, sitting in her wheelchair, looked up and saw Fu Jingsheng and the others.

The woman's face turned deathly pale instantly. She blocked the doorway, preventing Fu Jingsheng and the others from entering the house.

"Why are you here?" Rong Bing asked in a panic.

Rong Yan replied, "I need to talk to you. Can we go inside? Oh, by the way, I brought you some things. They're on the stone table. I'll have Auntie bring them back later."

Rong Bing wheeled herself outside: "Let's talk outside."

The group looked at each other, finding it inconvenient to discuss the matter while sitting in the courtyard.

"Can't we go in?" Rong Yan asked again.

"Bingbing." Fu Jingchen didn't see the person outside the door. He came out of the bathroom and called out as he walked.

Rong Bing was stunned.

How did Fu Jingchen manage to pull himself out of it?

"Is someone inside?" Rong Yan heard a man's voice say. "Then let's talk outside."

Fu Jingsheng pushed the door all the way down. He knew his brother's voice all too well. The two of them had locked the door in broad daylight. Anyone could tell what they were up to.

They've gotten together again.

Sure enough, Fu Jingchen stood in the middle of the living room. When he saw Fu Jingsheng, his phone fell to the ground. He stammered, "Brother... why... are you here?"

Shen Xingzhi noticed the man's buttons were askew and whispered in Rong Yan's ear, "The buttons are all wrong. What were these two doing just now?"

Ye Jianming stood at the very back; Rong Bing and the others' affairs were none of his concern.

"You're here at the perfect time. Sit down and let's chat." Fu Jingsheng didn't ask how they got together, after all, that was their private life.

Fu Jingchen sat respectfully, like a child who had done something wrong, not daring to look at his brother.

Rong Bing forced a smile and said, "Then come in. There's water and glasses on the coffee table. Help yourself."

The woman assumed that Fu Jingsheng and his group knew beforehand that Fu Jingchen had reconciled with her and were coming to confront her. No matter what, Fu Jingchen was a member of the Fu family, while she had done so many things that wronged the Fu family, making her an enemy of the Fu family. She felt it was only right for them to stop Fu Jingchen from being with her.

Unexpectedly, no one asked her when she and Fu Jingchen had reconciled.

Rong Yan cut to the chase: "You've seen the news about the Fu family, haven't you?"

"Hmm, you don't doubt me, do you?" Rong Bing asked back.

“I know you don’t have that kind of brain, but we received a mysterious phone call. The person said that he and Fu Jingsheng used to like the same person,” Rong Yan said.

"What do you mean? Hasn't Fu Jingsheng always liked you?" Rong Bing didn't understand at all.

“Back in college, everyone thought he liked you. We suspected that he was helping you get revenge,” Rong Yan said bluntly.

Rong Bing suddenly laughed: "Sister, you don't think I ordered this, do you? It's true that a few people pursued me in college, but not to the point of standing up for me. Besides, I was the one who was ungrateful and hurt you all. What's there to retaliate for?"

Rong Bing was quite aware of this.

"You still know that you're the one who caused us trouble? It seems I guessed right. You weren't involved in this. I'm asking you for help. Think back to who might have done this for you. Maybe they didn't ask for your opinion and decided to help you get revenge on their own." Rong Yan came to ask Rong Bing for help, and you should have the right attitude when asking for help.

Rong Yan held Rong Bing's hand: "Sister, now that you're with Fu Jingchen again, we're in the same boat. You don't want the Fu family to fail, right? Can you think about it carefully?"

Rong Bing always felt that Rong Yan was being hypocritical, but with so many people watching, if she said she wouldn't help, wouldn't that be clearly going against the Fu family?

Fu Jingchen replied, "Of course I will help. Bingbing has long wanted to make amends to the Fu family."

“Yes, I’d like to think about it,” Rong Bing echoed Fu Jingchen’s words.

"Okay, we'll wait for you outside, so as not to disturb you." Rong Yan led everyone to the courtyard.

Fu Jingchen followed him out: "Brother, let's talk." He led Fu Jingsheng aside.

Fu Jingsheng stood in the corner of the yard, hands in his pockets: "What is it?"

Fu Jingchen lit a cigarette for his brother.

"Brother, you don't doubt that I did it, do you? I swear I didn't. After everything that's happened, I'm already so grateful that you can forgive me. I just want to repay you and won't do anything stupid again." Fu Jingchen didn't actually do anything, but he didn't want the Fu family to be happy.

Fu Jingsheng glanced at his younger brother and said, "I don't doubt you, Fu Jingchen. Let bygones be bygones. Even if we're not related by blood, we're brothers who grew up together. You have a share in the Fu family business. Right now, let's get through this together. You know Rong Bing. Do you have any clues in mind?"

Fu Jingchen didn't think so in his heart. He believed that the Fu family had its own share, but on the surface he still had to cater to them.

He nodded: "I know, brother, we'll always be family, but I really don't know anything about Rong Bing's university life. She hasn't told me anything about anyone else except you."

"Brother, what will happen to the Fu family if we can't find that person?" Fu Jingchen asked casually.

Fu Jingsheng stubbed out his cigarette: "It will go bankrupt. We might have to give up all the houses we live in now."

"Are we going to have to pay for the Fu family's old house too?" Fu Jingchen blurted out, but quickly realized his mistake and corrected himself, "I mean, if we pay for everything, where will you live?"

"Let's talk about it later." Fu Jingsheng didn't want to think too much about it. "Let's see if there are any clues first. Maybe things will take a turn for the better."

"Okay, let's investigate right away."

Fu Jingchen pretended to help.

In the courtyard, Rong Yan and the others gathered together, each expressing their own opinions.

Rong Bing didn't come out for a long time, and fearing it would disrupt her train of thought, no one went in to ask.

Fu Jingsheng's phone rang again, still from an unknown number. He made a shushing gesture and went outside to answer it.
