I didn't need to look back, I knew it was Fu Jinan just by listening to the voice.
Fu Qichuan pulled his arm out without making a sound, "Why are you here?"
"Dad brought me here."
Fu Jinan's voice was gentle, "Dad said that I will definitely help you manage the Fu family in the future. It would be good to come more often so that I can get to know him better."
I just felt sarcastic in my heart, and then I heard Fu Qichuan's cold voice, "Then go find him, why are you following me?"
"What? Do you dislike me so much now?"
Fu Jinan pretended to be angry and tried to please her: "Oh, if it was just because of the photos from a few days ago, I wouldn't be angry, but you're still fussing about it? Besides, it was Ruan Nanzhi who cheated on you, not me..."
"Fu Jinan!"
Fu Qichuan shouted at her, as if trying to push her away.
Fu Wenhai appeared out of nowhere, acting like a real father. "I saw a few friends and went to say hello. An An has never been to an occasion like this before, so please take care of her so that no one can bully her."
…
I strode away and I didn't hear what Fu Qichuan responded.
No more.
There is nothing else to do but agree.
However, he probably didn't remember that this was my first time attending such an upper-class dinner.
"Nanzhi."
As soon as I reached the door, Lu Shiyan finished greeting a guest and walked straight over to me.
He looked down at my bare calves and smiled warmly, "Come on, I'll take you to the banquet hall. It's cold outside."
"OK."
I nodded, and just as we stepped onto the steps of the mansion together, Xu Zhi, looking unhappy, spoke up, "You're the woman he's been so worried about, right? You're really pretty. No wonder I, your 'son' who's been dormant for so many years, can't stand it anymore."
She thought I was her girlfriend, the girl that Lu Shiyan liked.
I frowned and was about to speak when Lu Shiyan said indifferently, "Every grievance has its perpetrator, don't take it out on others."
Xu Zhi straightened her mink vest and raised her eyebrows. "Why are you so anxious? I just said something about her and you're so anxious?"
Although his attitude was not good, it was completely different from the way he beat Lu Shiyan in the ancestral hall that day.
That day, it was more like he was condescending, almost treating Lu Shiyan like a dog.
At first glance, it was not difficult to detect her restraint and fear.
Lu Shiyan was calm, "She is just an ordinary friend of mine."
"Ordinary friends?"
Xu Zhi was suspicious and obviously didn't believe it.
I was helpless, "Mrs. Lu, we are indeed just ordinary friends."
As I said this, afraid that she wouldn't believe me, I pointed at Fu Qichuan who was just walking over and was being pestered by Fu Jinan, "Look, I have a husband."
She looked me up and down, "Are you... the wife that Fu Qichuan has been secretly married to for three years?"
"If you don't believe me, go ask him."
I spoke in a cold tone, then turned my head to look at Lu Shiyan and rubbed my hands, "Senior, let's go in. It's freezing."
Behind him, Xu Zhi muttered, "This couple is quite interesting, each having their own fun?"
…
Hearing this, I felt it was ironic and couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Shiyan looked over and said, "Don't mind it."
"fine."
I shook my head. "What did you do? It seems like her attitude towards you is completely different from that day."
"Want to know?"
"A little."
After all, I always thought Lu Shiyan was a very gentle and refined person, but I didn't expect that he could make Xu Zhi become more restrained overnight.
Lu Shiyan curled his lips and said, "I found evidence that she killed my mother."
"What?"
I was stunned and subconsciously asked, "After so many years, is it still possible to find evidence?"
His eyes flickered slightly, and he looked up and forward, "Yeah."
"Then why didn't you call the police?"
"Fool."
Lu Shiyan smiled and said, "Do you think the guy who's celebrating his 80th birthday tomorrow would agree to me calling the police? Actually, sometimes a different approach can achieve the same effect."
This statement is a bit unfathomable.
I looked at him in surprise and smiled: "Senior, I think you are different from the one I knew before."
"How do you say that?"
He was stunned for a moment and looked at me, "Or maybe... you don't like me like this?"
"Won't!"
I immediately denied it and praised him, "I think you are even more capable and intelligent than the Lu Shiyan I knew before. I admire you for being so thoughtful."
People like him and I have no one to rely on.
The only one you can rely on is yourself.
What's more, he is in a den of wolves like the Lu family. If he doesn't think carefully, he will only end up dead.
He was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up slightly, "Really?"
"Of course it's true."
I nodded seriously.
I don’t know if it was my illusion, but he seemed to let out a long breath silently and relaxed a lot.
It seemed like the question I just asked made him nervous.
When I entered the Lu family's banquet hall, I found that the people who came yesterday were not only people from Jiangcheng's upper class circles, but also some unfamiliar faces.
Lu Shiyan helped me get some food from the buffet counter. "I'm going to be out for a while. You can rest here. Call me if you need anything."
"good."
I smiled slightly and took the Western plate.
The banquet hall was bustling with activity, and people like me with a low sense of presence found a perfect opportunity to hide away and relax.
I ate something and then got up to go to the bathroom to take care of my physiological needs. When I came out, I saw Fu Jinan being blocked by a rich girl and not allowed to leave.
Is there a time when a white lotus also encounters a queen of flowers?
I simply stood at the corner and didn't go over to avoid getting involved in any unnecessary trouble.
The rich girl, with a dress worth no less than seven figures, was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a delicate face full of confidence, "Sister, you are Fu Qichuan's wife who has been hiding from the public for more than three years, right?"
…
I just wanted to watch a show, but I was still heartbroken.
Unexpectedly, Fu Jinan raised his chin proudly without even thinking, "It's me, what's wrong?"
She probably had never been to such a scene before, so she dressed very carefully. The deep V dress was very revealing, showing off her proud career line. The high slit design made her thighs faintly visible.
"Divorce him."
The rich girl spoke in an almost commanding tone.
Fu Jinan's eyes widened, "What did you say?"
"I said, divorce him."
The rich girl crossed her arms and handed over a check, "You fill in the amount yourself."
Quite generous.
I never thought that someone like Mrs. Fu would encounter such a thing one day.
The mistresses came to my house and asked me to fill out a check and leave.
Although, the person standing opposite her now is the fake Fu Jinan.
Fu Jinan, who always liked to make trouble, unexpectedly showed an expression of confusion and a sense of crisis. "What do you mean? Do you like Ah Chuan?"
The rich girl thought about it and said indifferently: "You can understand it that way. Anyway, I am determined to win."
Fu Jinan gritted his teeth and spat, "What did your father teach you? How can you be so confident in interfering in other people's families? And you are so determined to get what you want. Do you have any shame?!"
I wanted to laugh when I heard it, and I couldn't help laughing.
