Ji Yanli led the disguised Fu Yao toward Fu Yu.
At present, Fu Yu is a rising star in the world of fame and fortune. With Li Zongci as her backer, everyone treats her with utmost respect wherever she goes.
Fu Yu wore a top designer's latest custom-made haute couture gown, which made her even more dazzling from the style and color scheme to the details.
And what about Fu Yao?
Not only did she have an ordinary-looking face, but she was also wearing an ill-fitting old-fashioned dress.
Her status was Ji Yanli's female companion, not even his girlfriend.
It wasn't that she didn't want to see Fu Yu.
She hoped that after becoming a princess, she could stand arrogantly in front of Fu Yu, who at that time was being tortured to the point of near death by Li Zongci.
But now, Fu Yu lives the life of a tycoon's wife that everyone envies, while she...
Ji Yanli nodded to Fu Yu and naturally introduced Fu Yao's current identity.
She is Shang Nian, a junior of Ji Yanli, majoring in business administration, and previously studied in H country.
Ji Yanli's plan for Fu Yao was simple: kidnap Fu Yu and use her to threaten Li Zongci into handing over the map of the empire's underground military base.
Ji Yanli said that Fu Yu was Li Zongci's weakness, and as long as they could control her, Li Zongci would be trapped.
Fu Yao, who has spent many years with Fu Yu, will surely find a way to bypass the Li family's layers of security and kidnap Fu Yu.
"Mrs. Li, I've long admired your name."
Fu Yao extended her hand in a friendly manner, just as Fu Yu was about to touch her hand.
Suddenly, he tilted to the side, his expression pained, and said, "I'm sorry, young madam, my right hand dislocated a few days ago while lifting a heavy object, and it still hurts from time to time."
"oh?"
"If you trust me, let me give you a few acupuncture treatments."
"How could I trouble you, young mistress?"
Fu Yao quickly covered her wrist and said in a panic, "I can bear it."
Fu Yu usually can't stand seeing others get hurt, she's incredibly foolish, and easily believes what others say.
The more Fu Yao refused, the more eager Fu Yu became to help her with the treatment.
As expected, Fu Yu eagerly took Fu Yao's hand, "This kind of injury becomes more difficult to treat the longer it is left untreated, and it is also easy to leave lasting health problems. You are still young, so you should pay more attention to it."
“If you feel it’s inappropriate to administer acupuncture in public, I can take you to the nearby lounge.”
“Well…” Fu Yao gave Ji Yanli a triumphant look, “Thank you, young mistress.”
Upon arriving at the rest room, Fu Yu took out her needle case and picked up a needle.
Instead of immediately administering acupuncture, he raised his chin and looked meaningfully at the unfamiliar face before him.
"Granddaughter, how have you been?"
Fu Yao paused for a moment, then forced a smile onto her stiff lips. "I don't understand what you mean, young mistress."
"Fu Yao, you don't need to pretend in front of me."
Fu Yu clicked her tongue twice, her voice soft and sweet, but to Fu Yao it sounded incredibly wicked and arrogant.
"You've always touted yourself as the campus goddess, having dated countless men, yet your taste in men is still so poor."
"You've been sold out, and you're still counting the money for the seller."
"I bet Ji Yanli has a lot of wives and concubines now, so your situation must be quite awkward."
Fu Yu's words easily touched the most vulnerable nerve in Fu Yao's heart.
"Don't slander Brother Ali just because you helped me get treatment."
"I will become Brother Ali's lawfully wedded wife sooner or later. Young Madam, please be careful. I have heard that Young Master Li is cruel, ruthless, sinister, and cold-blooded."
"Young Master Li's feelings for his wife are probably just a passing fancy. Be careful, the higher you praise her, the harder she will fall later."
Instead of getting angry, Fu Yu smiled, as if he had grasped the crux of the matter.
"You didn't deny that you are Fu Yao."
Fu Yao frowned, determined to prove to Fu Yu how right her choice was. "I... of course I'm not..."
Before Fu Yao could finish speaking, Fu Yu threw the tablet into her arms.
The tablet only contained one video, which was surveillance footage of the dungeon explosion.
The video clearly shows that Ji Yanli's men planted explosives and deliberately lured Fu Yaozu and Qiao Shu to the location where the explosives were buried.
"No, that's impossible, this video is fake."
"Videos can indeed be faked, but real gold and silver cannot be faked at all."
"Back then, Li Zongci only imprisoned the Fu family in the dungeon and didn't touch their assets. After Fu Yaozu and Qiao Shu passed away and you disappeared, who inherited the Fu family's estate? Want to guess?"
Fu Yu innocently raised her hand, "I didn't touch it, but your beloved brother Ali, his palace has been renovated recently, hasn't it?"
"No, you're lying to me, Fu Yu, why are you making up these lies to deceive me?"
"You got Li Zongci, so you're doing everything you can to prove how terrible my choice of Ji Yanli was! Just to satisfy your sense of superiority and vanity!"
Fu Yu snorted coldly. When a woman is delusional, even if she sees the evidence laid bare, she will try her best to defend the man she loves.
How pathetic and hateful!
Fu Yao got up to leave when she suddenly heard Ji Yanli's voice.
Fu Yu took out her phone and played the conversation between Li Zongci and Ji Yanli that had taken place in the basement.
In the recording, Ji Yanli talked at length about how Fu Yao harmed and envied Fu Yu, and even said that he had brought evidence and was willing to be a witness to testify against Fu Yao.
He did all this just to get the chance to stay by Fu Yu's side.
Does he love you? I don't know.
"All I know is that compared to power and status, you are insignificant in his heart."
With a loud bang.
Fu Yao collapsed to the ground, as if all her essence had been drained, repeatedly saying "Impossible, it can't be."
She shakily took out her phone, wanting to call Ji Yanli to prove that what Fu Yu said was not true.
Ji Yanli is her only lifeline now. Whether in her past life or this life, he has done everything he can to help her escape Li Zongci.
He said that once he got the base map, he would ask the king for permission to marry her.
He said that she was the only woman in his heart from beginning to end, and that sleeping with other women was only for the sake of the country and the nation.
He said that no matter whether the plan succeeds or not, she will always be his little princess.
Before she could make a call, Ji Yanli sent a text message first.
"Little princess, the plan has changed. Find a way to knock Fu Yu unconscious and meet her in the backyard."
It was as if the beautiful dream I was immersed in had been shattered, revealing the chilling truth.
If the plan to kidnap Fu Yu was carried out by Fu Yao alone.
If he succeeds, Ji Yanli can obtain the map; if he fails, he can shift all the blame onto her.
He was still that harmless prince.
Fu Yao, on the other hand, will die with resentment while bearing the face of another woman.
"You can leave now."
Fu Yao's face turned deathly pale. In an instant, guilt and self-blame overwhelmed her like a surging flood.
She loved the wrong person, trusted the wrong person, and hated the wrong person.
Fu Yu watched Fu Yao's dejected figure as she left, shook her head, and put away her needle case.
Just as she was about to get up, the man behind her hugged her.
“Honey, why don’t you just kill her? She’s not worth your time.”
Li Zongci hugged Fu Yu tightly, his arms tightening more and more, as if he wanted to melt her into his bones and blood.
"Kill her? That would be letting her off too easily."
