Chapter 360 The protective and devoted woman VS The soft-hearted man who harbors a grudge 18
Fu Chengyan, with a stern face, tried to pull her over, but Jiang Zhiyi hid to the side, preventing him from touching her.
"Do you know how dangerous this is?" he scolded her.
She could smash things if she was unhappy, but how could she do something like burning things? If it really caused a fire, her life would be in danger.
Jiang Zhiyi was deliberately trying to provoke him; if she was unhappy, he wouldn't have an easy time either.
She retorted defiantly, "So what? Go ahead and kill me."
Seeing her like this, he didn't say anything, just hoisted her onto his shoulder and walked out.
"Let go of me! Let go!"
Soon, the nanny came in with a fire extinguisher to put out the fire. The house was full of smoke, but fortunately nothing serious happened. It was just a bit messy, and a group of people were cleaning up.
He led his men to the living room on the second floor.
"You better calm down." Fu Chengyan's expression wasn't good either. "If you dare to cause trouble again, see how I deal with you."
Jiang Zhiyi picked up a cushion from the side of the sofa and threw it at him, tears streaming down her face.
Fu Chengyan just stood there watching her cry, not paying any attention to her for the time being. Her temper was getting worse and worse, and she was afraid she would become lawless in the future.
“Sir, these jewels…” A nanny brought over some items, all of which were broken jewelry.
If they were ordinary items, they would simply throw them away as waste, but these things were very valuable, so they naturally couldn't just dispose of them casually.
"Throw them all away! They're all junk!" Jiang Zhiyi shouted, then continued to cry.
"Take it to the jewelry store tomorrow and let them handle it," Fu Chengyan instructed.
He glanced at the person still crying, picked up his phone and made a call to his secretary, then sat down and closed his eyes to rest.
After a long while, when Jiang Zhiyi finally cried herself to sleep, Fu Chengyan went over and forcibly hugged her.
"Are you awake now?" he asked.
"I just got back from a business trip today, and you're already giving me the cold shoulder at home. What did I do? Huh? At least give me a reason for your temper tantrum. Tell me, what's wrong that upset you?"
Jiang Zhiyi refused to speak, tears still clinging to her face.
He reached out to wipe away her tears. "I can't read minds. If you don't tell me, I'll never know, and the problem will never be solved. Of course, if you don't want to tell me, that's fine too. But don't blame me for ignoring you in the future."
The words were laced with threat.
Jiang Zhiyi was keeping a close eye on things; if things continued like this, he might really lose his patience.
She went along with what he said and told him everything.
Fu Chengyan frowned after hearing this.
"I'll send someone to contact the school tomorrow and have them apologize to your brother and ask them to transfer to another school... or your brother can change schools if he wants... If you're really worried, I'll have bodyguards take him to and from school from now on..."
He suggested several solutions.
"Where's your assistant?" she complained, "How dare he scare my brother?"
“I gave the order to do this.” Fu Chengyan looked at her. “You are the older sister, that’s true, but you can’t manage them forever. It’s not wrong to put some pressure on them now and let them realize the situation sooner…”
Fu Chengyan knew that she cared for her younger siblings and had always protected them, but he didn't want to see her being burdened by such a large family.
Since she can't be the villain, then he should be. The sooner they grow up and mature, the sooner the burden on their family will be reduced.
“But he still…” Jiang Zhiyi hesitated, though she wasn’t entirely unable to understand his thoughts.
She remained silent and did not speak again.
Seeing that she had finally calmed down, Fu Chengyan continued to bring up the previous incident, "You are not allowed to cause trouble like this again. I'm warning you, this is the last time."
Jiang Zhiyi knew he was scolding her, so she just sat there expressionless, not wanting to pay any attention.
The sound of a car could be heard outside.
Not long after, a secretary came over with some things, "President Fu..."
Jiang Zhiyi watched as Fu Chengyan opened the black box, inside which was a bracelet.
This bracelet is crystal clear, with a delicate texture and pure color. It is as lively and dynamic as flowing water, and it is just right in every aspect. It can be described as perfect.
Even though she didn't know much about jade, she could still tell how precious the bracelet in front of her was.
Some things can "speak," and their value is immediately apparent.
"How much is this worth?" she couldn't help but ask, curious.
Fu Chengyan gently helped her put it on, saying, "Some things can't be measured by money alone. You just need to know that this is a good thing."
"I just want to know," Jiang Zhiyi persisted, "Can't I tell you?"
"Wear it." Fu Chengyan still didn't answer, but seemingly worried that she would throw a tantrum and smash things again, he had to add, "You better keep it safe, it'll last you until you retire."
Jiang Zhiyi recalled that she had casually mentioned to him during a previous conversation that if she could save up one or two hundred million yuan, she could do nothing and live a happy retirement life early.
She stared at him with wide eyes, seemingly unable to believe that the thing was so valuable.
But then she thought again, Fu Chengyan wasn't the kind of person to lie to her about something like this, and given his usual unassuming nature, this amount might even be conservative; the item could very well be more expensive.
Even though she was angry before, now that the problem has been solved and she has received so much money, Jiang Zhiyi's mood has improved a lot, and she is even a little happy.
Although she was a little embarrassed about how quickly her expression changed, anyone would be happy to receive such a great benefit, right?
Jiang Zhiyi touched the bracelet on her wrist and began to coax him: "I'll go shopping tomorrow and buy you some new clothes. Don't wear those old, outdated ones in the closet anymore. You should wear something even prettier."
She simply described the clothes she burned as old and worn out, as if they were meant to be thrown away anyway, and that she hadn't done anything wrong.
"Use my card to buy it?" Fu Chengyan's lips curled slightly.
She's got a good plan. She throws a tantrum and breaks his things, then uses his money to buy him gifts as an apology. In the end, won't he have to thank her?
Jiang Zhiyi paused, her expression subtle.
Putting aside the custom-made items, any piece of clothing in his wardrobe costs tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan. How could she bear to pay for it herself? Of course, she would swipe his card. Besides, she also wanted to buy some for herself; she wanted to wear nice clothes too.
"I can't be bothered to argue with you." He knew what she was thinking without even having to think.
Jiang Zhiyi looked up at him, then simply pulled him to a guest room. The master bedroom was still being prepared and couldn't be used tonight, so they would have to make do with the guest room.
It's incredibly easy to appease him. Once he's comfortable, everything will be fine. Besides, most of the time she doesn't lose out; he's the one putting in the effort to serve her.
"I missed you so much while you were away on your business trip..." she whispered sweetly in his ear, then kissed his neck.
