Chapter 12: If only he wasn't love-struck



Li Susu's eyes lit up, and she pressed on, "So the Yanghai project was a collaboration between you and my older brother? And the simulation technology that caused such a stir in China back then, was it you who proposed it?"

You know?

When Fu Xingzhou asked the question, he lowered his head and took a bite of noodles, a look of amazement flashing in his eyes.

Surprisingly, it tasted pretty good.

Li Susu's mind was already drawn to the Yanghai project. "Of course I know. This technology has raised the quality and efficiency of projects in the industry to a whole new level."

Five years ago, Li Susu had just started dating Qin Chuan. At that time, she had not yet broken ties with her family and was also involved in company matters.

Li Chenglin's first notable achievement after taking over the company was the Yanghai project.

"You know about this fully automated front-end technology that's been around lately? It's pretty good, but I think it's all an enhancement of your existing technology..."

When it comes to industry matters, Li Susu can't stop talking.

The analysis of the latest situation inadvertently revealed unique insights.

Fu Xingzhou's attention was also drawn to her, especially when he saw her analyzing business matters with great enthusiasm, which showed that she did indeed have some real expertise.

It would be even better if she weren't a hopeless romantic.

"Well said. I hope Ms. Li can also deliver satisfactory results in our cooperation."

Li Susu solemnly promised, "President Fu, rest assured, I will definitely not let you down."

This is not only a collaboration between the two parties, but also the first shot she fired upon her return to the Li family.

Having her older brother to take care of her wasn't enough; she also had to rely on herself to stand on her own two feet.

Fu Xingzhou nodded slightly and continued eating his noodles.

Li Susu glanced at it and was surprised to find that his bowl was almost empty.

Is he hungry?

"Would you like me to cook another bowl?"

"Need not."

After finishing the last bite, Fu Xingzhou took a tissue to wipe his mouth, exuding an air of nobility in every gesture.

Li Susu even felt that what she cooked was not a simple bowl of noodles.

After she finished cleaning up the dishes, she realized that Fu Xingzhou hadn't returned to his room yet, and that's when she remembered the murderer.

"Have your men caught the murderer and taken him to the police station?"

Fu Xingzhou nodded. "Your older brother has investigated. This person had a grudge against you before and is now in police custody."

An old enemy?

Li Susu was surprised by this situation, "That's it?"

"Otherwise, who do you think it is?"

Fu Xingzhou asked in return out of curiosity.

This shut Li Susu up.

She was too embarrassed to talk about her messy affair with Qin Chuan, lest she offend Fu Xingzhou's ears.

"I just find it strange that I haven't had any enemies in the past few years, so why did they come knocking on my door as soon as I came back here?"

Fu Xingzhou stared intently at her, then suddenly asked, "Are you planning to get a divorce?"

"Huh?" Li Susu was caught off guard by the question.

"I don't want any more irrelevant people to interfere with our cooperation, and I have no interest in being some kind of 'wild man.' I hope President Li can handle this matter well."

Fu Xingzhou left after saying that.

Li Susu felt a chill run down her spine. His words weren't gossip, but a warning.

Li Susu stormed back to her room and sent a threatening message to Qin Chuan before going to bed, telling him to shut up and that she would see him at the Civil Affairs Bureau the next day.

I slept well that night and didn't have any nightmares.

Fu Xingzhou's presence is generally reassuring.

She got up early in the morning and knocked on the door of the guest room as she passed by, but received no response. She listened carefully inside but there was still no movement.

Li Susu paused for a moment, then opened the door.

Fu Xingzhou was nowhere to be seen inside; he had left long ago.

That's good, now she can go see Qin Chuan directly.

Li Susu arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau on time, but Qin Chuan did not show up at all.

Instead, it was Qin's mother who arrived.

"Su Su, couples usually make up after a fight in bed. If you bring this up, it'll be so embarrassing if word gets out."

Qin's mother immediately began lecturing him in a manner that suggested she was "doing it for his own good."

Li Susu glared at her coldly.

"Isn't Qin Chuan coming?"
