Chapter 80 Little Wild Cat
Ji Mian coughed enough, wiped his mouth, and stared at him with red eyes.
Fu Chenyu actually felt a sense of inexplicable guilt because of this. Ji Mian failed to catch his guilt, but was just scared in his heart.
Fu Chenyu in the original novel was extremely difficult to deal with. Ji Mian almost thought that he was going to die, but luckily, Fu Chenyu suddenly let go of his hand for some unknown reason.
It seems that we should not be too confident, nor underestimate the degree of Fu Chenyu's perversion.
After this incident, Ji Mian became even more wary of Fu Chenyu.
Fu Chenyu came to his senses and walked towards him.
Ji Mian immediately became alert and subconsciously moved back.
Fu Chenyu didn't know why, but he felt that Ji Mian's action was particularly irritating, which made him feel even worse.
He half squatted down, looking like he wanted to say something to Ji Mian.
Then, there was a knock on the door of the box, interrupting what Fu Chenyu was about to say.
After getting Fu Chenyu's permission, the jewelry store manager opened the door and reported, "Mr. Fu, Mr. Su is outside."
Ji Mian was moved when he heard this and analyzed, Mr. Su?
Among Fu Chenyu's people, there is only one Mr. Su who can invite him, and that is Su Luoyu!
Su Luoyu is here too?
Ji Mian looked towards the door, and the door of the box was open a crack. Ji Mian tried to sit up straight without making any noise and see what was happening outside.
But the jewelry store manager was tall and strong, and he blocked the outside tightly. Ji Mian sighed softly.
However, on second thought, he was actually very happy.
After all, Su Luoyu is the boss's white moonlight! This is the original novel of "Stranger Tenderness". Now that the white moonlight has appeared, how can Fu Chenyu have the time to compete with himself in wits and courage?
Of course, I have to comfort my beloved one.
After knowing that he could take a break, Ji Mian felt much better.
Fu Chenyu suddenly turned his head, raised his chin, and smiled half-heartedly: "Why do I feel that you look quite happy?"
Ji Mian chuckled and said, "If I put the ring in your mouth once, do you think you'd be happy?"
Fu Chenyu seemed to be lost in thought, stroking Ji Mian's lips with his thumb. Ji Mian did not dodge this time.
With the experience from last time, Ji Mian felt that it would be better not to provoke Fu Chenyu at this time, lest his fighting power had not yet recovered and Fu Chenyu did something abnormal that he could not resist.
Besides, Su Luoyu was just outside the door, and Fu Chenyu would not be in the mood to stay with him for long at this time.
Sure enough, the next second, Fu Chenyu stood up.
Ji Mian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Fu Chenyu put on the ring slowly and gracefully.
His fingers were about the same thickness as Ji Mian's, and they were a pair of very beautiful hands. Even when wearing a women's ring, they did not look weird, but only had a hazy beauty that was difficult to tell whether they were male or female.
...The boss doesn't mind the dirt, there might even be his saliva on it.
Ji Mian complained silently in his heart.
Fu Chenyu turned around and asked curiously, "Can you tell me how you met Su Luoyu?"
Ji Mian's heart, which had been falling, suddenly rose to his throat.
——How did Fu Chenyu know that he knew Su Luoyu?
In the original novel, Ji Mian didn’t even know Su Luoyu!
Therefore, he almost subconsciously denied that he knew Su Luoyu, but when the words came to his lips, Ji Mian held them back.
Judging from Fu Chenyu's personality, he must have investigated him in the past few days, and the results of his investigation showed that Ji Mian was an adult with intellectual disabilities.
However, Ji Mian's behavior in the past few days not only does not show any lack of intelligence, but also shows that he is a very cautious and intelligent person.
This is completely different from the information Fu Chenyu got.
Ji Mian thought that he probably knew why Fu Chenyu was interested in him.
Perhaps, the boss wants to know why "himself" has changed so much before and after.
Ji Mian responded to Fu Chenyu with silence. Fu Chenyu had no choice but to use his own logic. His voice was very gentle, so soft and slow: "That's right. You and him should know each other."
Ji Mian stared at him, lest Fu Chenyu's brain circuits get stuck and turn around to punch him. He heard Fu Chenyu sigh a little gloomily: "You really love him."
Ji Mian's mind was full of question marks. He couldn't figure out what Fu Chenyu was saying that he couldn't understand?
But so what if he knows Su Luoyu? He is Li Jue's "cannon fodder substitute" and Su Luoyu is Li Jue's "white moonlight". They are in the same industry and colleagues. Isn't it okay for them to have an internal and competitive relationship?
Well, Ji Mian comforted himself, so don’t worry, Fu Chenyu may not have discovered that his identity and origin are unknown.
With Fu Chenyu's intelligence and his wild imagination, he might be able to find out that he is not from this world.
Ji Mian had seen his adopted son tinkering with many unheard-of black technologies, including research on wormholes... He had no idea why Fu Chenyu, a computer scientist, was studying such advanced astronomy...
Maybe it has something to do with his latest project?
Ji Mian suspected that his coming here might be related to Fu Chenyu.
If he goes back, he must tell the boss: Congratulations, Fu Chenyu, you really succeeded in your research! But can you get me a billionaire next time?
Fu Chenyu said to the jewelry store manager, "Keep an eye on him."
Then he opened the door and walked out.
Ji Mian stood up, and the jewelry manager immediately stared at him warily.
"Don't be so nervous. He just asked you to keep an eye on me. He didn't say that I couldn't move freely." Ji Mian pretended to be relaxed and walked to the door. "I'll just stand here and watch."
His vision finally widened and he could see the situation outside clearly.
Su Luoyu stood at the door of the jewelry store for a long time. As soon as Fu Chenyu came out, he said, "It's getting harder and harder to see you now. I've been waiting here for ten minutes."
"I was just dealing with something." Fu Chenyu replied: "Have you eaten?"
Ji Mian's stomach growled silently.
I thought to myself that the boss was really hypocritical. He had been arguing with me for so long but didn't even ask me if I was hungry.
Alas, the treatment of Bai Yueguang is different, Ji Mian sighed.
Su Luoyu shook her head: "I'm in a bad mood. I have no appetite."
After hearing this, Ji Mian commented that he must have had a quarrel with the protagonist, and he came to find Fu Chenyu to be a backup.
Haha, bad fox, you have come to this day!
This is the fate of the affectionate second male lead. Ji Mian was secretly happy in his heart. He was happy to see Fu Chenyu being humiliated.
Who made him bully me just now!
If there were no melon seeds on the scene, Ji Mian really wanted to eat the whole melon here.
In her heart, her husband and this bad fox were completely two different people. Apart from confusing them at the beginning, when she saw Fox now, Ji Mian felt like she was looking at a paper man.
The bad fox is different from his boss. Ji Mian is very hypocritical. In his heart, his fox is the most precious.
Su Luoyu had not been standing there for long when Li Jue arrived.
Ji Mian didn't expect that such a small jewelry store could collect all the protagonists and villains, so he felt a little serious while watching the show.
After all, the more protagonists there are, the more likely big things are to happen.
As soon as Li Jue arrived, he called him: "Su Su..."
Su Luoyu asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Come to find you." Li Jue sighed.
Li Jue in the original novel is handsome and flamboyant, and really has the style of a domineering president.
In Ji Mian's mind, Li Jue has always been a silly guy. But when Ji Mian saw him acting cool at first glance, she found it quite novel.
It's like watching a Husky wearing a suit.
However, although Li Jue tried hard to take care of himself, it was still obvious that his mental state was not good.
There were blue marks under his eyes, and his expression was one of unconcealable fatigue.
Su Luoyu said: "Li Jue, I said that I don't want to see you until you explain everything to me."
Fu Chenyu asked in a friendly manner: "What's wrong?"
Ji Mian saw that he and Li Jue were still able to stand together in harmony, and it seemed that they had not fallen out.
At this point in the plot of "Strangers' Tenderness", Fu Chenyu has not yet officially begun to express his pursuit of Su Luoyu. Only Ji Mian, the only one who has a God's perspective, knows that Fu Chenyu will completely break up with Li Jue after his death.
His current identity is still Su Luoyu's childhood sweetheart, a psychology professor at Jianjing Public University, and a young and promising intellectual.
Li Jue reached out his hand and shook his, greeting him: "Professor Fu."
Fu Chenyu smiled and said, "Mr. Li looks like he's in some trouble. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Su Luoyu chimed in, sneering, "You could help him understand his mental state and ask him what kind of friend is worth him searching all over Jianjing for, without my help."
Fu Chenyu showed just the right amount of surprise: "Friend?"
Li Jue pinched the bridge of his nose: "One of my... friends has disappeared."
Fu Chenyu expressed regret: "Have you found the person?"
"No." Li Jue's voice was extremely tired: "It's been three days."
It’s been three days and Ji Mian still hasn’t been found.
With every passing minute, Li Jue's hanging heart felt like it was being cut into pieces by a knife.
He couldn't imagine where that little idiot who knew nothing could have run to, and now... was he still alive?
How could a person just disappear from the villa out of thin air?
If it was a kidnapping, why hasn't the kidnapper given me any information yet?
Don’t they just want money? Can’t Li Jue afford it? As long as the little idiot is alive, he can give him any amount of money.
Su Luoyu felt even more unhappy when she saw Li Jue's expression.
He didn't understand what kind of friend he was. Li Jue would rather look for other legal teams than him.
Doesn't he trust himself?
Fu Chenyu spoke, regretfully saying, "It's okay. Did you call the police?"
"It's no use calling the police." Su Luoyu frowned and glanced at Li Jue: "He refuses to say anything, how can the police help with the investigation?"
Ji Mian sighed when he heard this.
Of course not!
Su Luoyu doesn't know about the existence of the cannon fodder substitute at this moment - although "herself" in the original novel also doesn't know about Su Luoyu's existence, Li Jue, this scumbag, is deceiving both sides.
Fu Chenyu offered a few words of comfort, then stroked the ring on her ring finger.
Su Luoyu noticed and asked in surprise: "When did you start wearing a ring?"
Fu Chenyu adjusted the ring: "Today."
"How... is it a women's ring?" Su Luoyu hesitated.
Fu Chenyu just smiled and didn't say anything. Li Jue's eyes also fell on the diamond ring. It was indeed beautiful, but for some reason, he felt a little unhappy looking at it.
Moreover, it must be his illusion. Why did he have the feeling that Fu Chenyu was provoking him?
Su Luoyu said sincerely: "It's quite good. I've never seen anything that can attract your attention."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of something heavy falling was heard in the private room of the jewelry store. Su Luoyu and Li Jue looked towards the room immediately.
Fu Chenyu said helplessly: "Sorry. It's my cat."
Su Luoyu was even more surprised: "You also have a cat?"
"It's a stray cat I picked up." Fu Chenyu lowered his eyelashes and repeatedly stroked the diamond ring with a playful expression: "It can catch people and is quite fierce."
"Then be careful. If you get scratched, you can't get a vaccine here." Su Luoyu said, "I said, you picked up a cat, and you brought it on the boat... Can cats ride on boats?"
Fu Chenyu said regretfully, "It seems impossible. He has been trying every possible way to escape these past few days."
Li Jue interrupted them and said, "If you like it, close it, or it won't disappear."
Fu Chenyu smiled, his eyes curved like a fox: "Well, thank you, Mr. Li, for reminding me."
Su Luoyu and Li Jue didn't stay for too long. After Fu Chenyu saw them off and returned to the box, the only person in the room was the jewelry store manager who had fainted on the floor.
And the "wild cat" he locked up had already escaped.
Fu Chenyu was not depressed, but instead showed a happy smile.
He kissed the diamond ring on his ring finger, his eyes fixed on the open window in the box.

"Oh my god, brother! Where have you been? If you don't come out, I'm going to call the police!" The moment Pipi saw Ji Mian, he was almost scared to death.
He was waiting in the jewelry store just now, but was suddenly asked to leave by the manager without any explanation.
Pippi had thin arms and legs, so she didn't dare to argue with others, so she had to swallow her anger and walk to the fountain on Queen's Road.
After waiting for a full half hour, Ji Mian finally came out.
He was fine when he went in, but looked like he had been tortured when he came out. The corners of his mouth were cracked, his eyes were red, his eye sockets were red, and his mental state was not good.
"It's okay." Ji Mian didn't want to say more.
Pipi was very good at reading people's expressions in this regard, and she knew at once that Ji Mian had something to hide.
When he looked again, the ring in Ji Mian's hand was gone, and it didn't look like he had exchanged it for money. Pipi immediately thought of a tragic story: Ji Mian wanted to exchange the ring for money, but ended up running into a shady shop. Not only did he lose the ring, he also didn't get the money.
Recalling the tall, strong and ferocious look of the jewelry store manager, Pipi became even more convinced that this jewelry store was a shady one.
"Brother, it's okay if we don't get any money. The biggest auction on Wheel of Fortune is happening the day after tomorrow night. I reckon all the important people on the ship will be going to the banquet hall. If we can get tickets to the banquet hall and sneak in, we're sure to hook some rich guys!"
Ji Mian: ...
This is all you pursue, yet you still haven't given up.
Pipi said, "Even if we can't catch any fish, we can still go in and broaden our horizons. You know what the biggest attraction of this auction is? It's the Deep Sea Star!"
Ji Mian had heard of the Deep Sea Star, a rare diamond worth three billion.
"It's just a diamond." Ji Mian didn't understand what was so precious about this diamond. The fact that it attracted so many people to chase after it showed that there was something wrong with the brains of capitalists.
Pippi said, "That's not just any diamond."
Ji Mian complained: "What's wrong? Is it more noble than other diamonds?"
Pipi looked at him, stunned for a moment: "You haven't heard of the legend of the Deep Sea Star?"
"No." Ji Mian paused: "What other legends can there be about diamonds?"
Pipi said that even an illiterate person like me had heard of it. He said, "Rumor has it that when the sun and moon rise above the sea at the same time, the Deep Sea Star will open a portal through time and space... What's with that expression on your face?"
Ji Mian complained helplessly: "How credible do you think this is? I'm a materialist..."
He didn't finish his words until halfway through.
Thinking that he is a time traveler, it seems that he is the one who has the least right to talk about materialism.
Pipi said, "I don't care whether it's true or not. We'll know the day after tomorrow anyway."
Ji Mian: "Why the day after tomorrow?"
Pipi looked at him incredulously. "How come you're on Wheel of Fortune without knowing anything? Damn, did you pick up your ticket?"
Ji Mian: ...
To be honest, he was kidnapped.
Pippi said, "Because the day after tomorrow is the fifteenth, the sun and the moon will appear in the sky at the same time at dusk."
At dusk, the outline of the world becomes blurred, and time and space will intersect here, which is also called the time of the devil.
