How could Fu Yaning not be anxious!
She didn't know what was wrong with Meng Hongrong. In the past, when she was in trouble, Meng Hongrong would always help her immediately. But this time, Meng Hongrong hadn't stepped forward for a long time. If he had been willing to step forward, Fu Yaning wouldn't be in such a miserable state.
Fu Yaning felt a little guilty towards Meng Hongrong, suspecting that he had a woman outside and had changed his mind, or that he was so focused on his real estate company that he didn't care about the money from Yaning Beauty Industry.
Fu Yaning said, "But those tabloids are making up stories about me every day, and my reputation is getting worse and worse. If this continues, I'm finished. Is Hongrong here? Can you let him answer the phone? I need to talk to him in person."
The secretary said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, Madam, he is not available to answer the phone right now."
Fu Yaning was desperate. She ordered her men to inquire at the tabloid and learned that the reason the tabloid was targeting Fu Yaning was because it was commissioned by Mandarin to frame her.
Fu Yaning was stunned for a moment. She said that her news had spread too quickly. It turned out that someone was behind it all. She thought she was really that unlucky. Who knew it was Liu Mingchuan.
Liu Mingchuan still couldn't let go of the grudge from back then and wanted to seek justice for himself, so he found someone to publish what happened back then so that Fu Yaning would receive the punishment she deserved.
Fu Yaning was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
This can't go on any longer. If she keeps making a scene like this, her life will be over. Right, she can go to Liu Mingchuan. If Liu Mingchuan can let her go, she won't have to suffer this injustice anymore.
Fu Yaning grasped at this last straw. She found Liu Mingchuan's residence. After all these years, Liu Mingchuan was still living in that dilapidated house from back then.
This house was Fu Yaning and Liu Mingchuan's marital home, allocated to Liu Mingchuan by his work unit. The house was on the first floor with a small courtyard. Fu Yaning initially complained that the place was too small, and after putting Liu Mingchuan's experimental equipment and bookshelves in it, there was no extra space. She always felt that this place did not feel like her home, and that she should not suffer such injustice and live this kind of life.
So she was dissatisfied with Liu Mingchuan and with life in general. Then, by chance, Fu Yaning met Meng Hongrong. Meng Hongrong was still very strong that year. He had the composure and restraint of a mature man. He was also very wealthy and generous to Fu Yaning.
Fu Yaning was quickly smitten. Compared to Liu Mingchuan, who didn't care about money or profit, Meng Hongrong was much more shrewd. Meng Hongrong knew how to handle things and treated Fu Yaning exceptionally well, quickly winning her heart.
Fu Yaning and Meng Hongrong maintained an improper relationship for over a year. At this time, Liu Mingchuan discovered the affair. Fu Yaning was afraid of his furious gaze. Just then, someone bribed several female students to slander Liu Mingchuan. At Meng Hongrong's instigation, Fu Yaning decided to go all out and testify, thus nailing Liu Mingchuan to the pillar of shame.
Back here, Fu Yaning suddenly realized that although the house was small, it had everything. The house was on the first floor, and the first floor in the north was quite comfortable. There was a grape trellis and a water tap in the yard.
The yard was kept very clean, and roses were planted near the window.
Through the window screen, one could see the bookshelves and instruments in the room from afar. These belonged to Liu Mingchuan. Had Liu Mingchuan really not left? Was he nostalgic, unable to let go of his past with her, or what? As the chief formulator of Mandarin, he had a team of over a hundred people under his command, and each of them, including Wang Cainian, had their own dedicated laboratory. He was quite wealthy, and Zhou Chuyu would not mistreat him.
He couldn't possibly not even have a house, yet he's been living here all this time.
Fu Yaning went inside. She lifted the window screen, and Liu Mingchuan, wearing gloves, peeked out of the room. He paused for a moment when he saw her before taking off his gloves and glasses.
He calmly went to wash his hands.
What brings you here?
Fu Yaning's throat went dry. She suddenly realized that she wasn't completely without feelings for Liu Mingchuan. She had made a mistake back then, but she shouldn't have slandered Liu Mingchuan.
“I know it was my fault back then, but you shouldn’t have gone to the newspapers to talk about it. These past years haven’t been easy for me either. How am I supposed to face people now that you’ve made such a scene? I’ve come to you hoping you can suppress this matter and stop Zhou Chuyu from causing me any more trouble!”
Liu Mingchuan was stunned for a moment, firstly because of what Fu Yaning said, and secondly because of Fu Yaning's attitude.
Liu Mingchuan had no idea that Chu Yu was targeting Fu Yaning, nor did he know that Chu Yu had bribed newspapers to broadcast these events. Recently, many people knew that he was innocent, and Liu Mingchuan thought it was a coincidence, but he never expected that it was that girl who was behind it.
Liu Mingchuan never expected that after so many years, Fu Yaning would still act so arrogantly. She took it for granted that he should obey her orders and that whatever she said was law. If she wanted him to keep the peace, he had to listen to her, otherwise, Fu Yaning would get angry and lose her temper.
Liu Mingchuan smiled. "It's been so many years, how come you haven't changed at all?"
Fu Yaning felt that these words were an insult. Her body trembled, and she found Liu Mingchuan's condescending attitude disgusting.
"And you? All you do is criticize me. Have you changed? After all these years, you still treat experiments as your life. If you hadn't ignored my feelings back then, would I have cheated on you? Would I have done things to betray you? Would I have asked those girls to slander you? In the end, you've ignored me for too long. After I married you, I didn't get everything I wanted from the marriage, which is why I cheated on you."
Liu Mingchuan laughed. "I can't say I'm not wrong. Maybe I really neglected you, but is that a reason for you to cheat? You could have divorced me and started dating Meng Hongrong. Oh, right, Meng Hongrong still had a wife back then. His wife wasn't dead yet."
