Fu Qingting was so angry that his chest heaved violently. He was not fully recovered yet, but he rushed over to check on the situation after hearing the news.
He never expected Fu Yanjiu to anger him like this.
"You brat!" Fu Qingting tightened his grip on his collar, raising his fist to punch him in the face.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Yu Muqing and Qiao Chen stepped forward to pull Fu Yan back, and the other stepped forward to pull Fu Qingting back.
Yu Muqing pulled Fu Yan aside and said to Fu Qingting, "Uncle, Xiao Yan is being immature, please calm down..."
Fu Qingting pointed at Fu Yan's nose and scolded, "Is he still immature? He's such a grown-up, how old will he be before he becomes sensible? If it weren't for Qiao Chen, the company would have almost gone out of business because of him, and he almost killed someone."
As he spoke, he broke free from Qiao Chen's grasp: "Qiao Chen, don't hold me back. I won't be able to get my revenge until I teach this kid a lesson today."
"He's an absolutely lawless bastard!"
Qiao Chen held onto his arm tightly and advised, "Uncle, you're not fully recovered yet, don't take it to heart."
Fu Yan suddenly scoffed, "Owl tears."
"That brat!" Fu Qingting was furious. "Qiao Chen, are you going to let me go or not? If you don't, I'll beat you up too."
Qiao Chen didn't take Fu Qingting's words to heart. He glanced coldly at Fu Yan and said, "Fu Yan, I apologize for what happened before, but now is not the time for you to throw a tantrum."
Fu Yan said expressionlessly, "I don't need your apology."
Finally, he added, "I would never accept that."
Qiao Chen's grip on Fu Qingting's hand loosened slightly, his eyes fixed on Fu Yan: "Fu Yan, how long are you going to be so childish?"
Fu Yan's contempt was undisguised: "Qiao Chen, what the hell are you pretending for? You've been following Fu Qingting around like a little grandson just to ruin the Fu family, haven't you?"
"What, my departure from the shareholders' meeting to let you take over, isn't that exactly what you wanted?"
"If I don't hit you today, I won't believe Qiao." Qiao Chen suddenly let go of Fu Qingting and pulled him behind him.
Before Yu Muqing could react, she was already in Qiao Chen's hands.
Qiao Chen grabbed Fu Yan by the collar, pushed him to the ground, and punched Fu Yan hard in the face.
After three punches, Fu Yan turned his head and coughed up a mouthful of blood, the bloodstains around his mouth looking scarlet and terrifying.
But he didn't retaliate, instead smiling and beckoning to Qiao Chen with his finger: "Continue."
Fu Qingting and Yu Muqing were stunned. Yu Muqing reacted first and stepped forward to grab Qiao Chen's arm.
Qiao Chen shook off his hand and said to Mu Qing, "Stand back, I want to say a few words to him, I won't hit him."
When Yu Muqing saw the anger in Qiao Chen's eyes for the first time, she froze, withdrew her hand, and walked to Fu Qingting's side.
Qiao Chen only turned his attention back to Fu Yan after seeing that the other person was standing far away.
He grabbed Fu Yan by the collar and lifted him into the air: "Fu Yan, you coward, you are not worthy of Xiao Xin at all."
Fu Yan's face and nose were covered in blood, and his eyes reddened again at the thought of Xiao Xin.
Qiao Chen grabbed his collar and continued to berate him: "I admit that I was initially jealous of you and wanted to destroy the Fu family, but that was because I wanted to defeat you."
"But look at yourself now, a complete mess. I despise you more and more, and you are not worthy of being my opponent."
Fu Yan laughed, "What does that have to do with me?"
Qiao Chen slapped him across the face, grabbed his collar and shook him up and down: "Fu Yan, wake up! Even I don't like you, so why should Xiao Xin like you?"
Fu Yan's smile froze.
Qiao Chen continued to berate him: "Is it because you're so selfish that you only care about your own feelings, or because you have such an empty mind?"
"..."
“But you have nothing. You can’t protect the Fu family, let alone protect Xiao Xin.”
Qiao Chen looked at him with exasperation: "Fu Yan, you're nothing but a piece of trash without the Fu family! If it weren't for the Fu family, if it weren't for your father, Xiao Xin might already be dead because of you!"
Fu Yan felt a dull pain in his heart, and then suddenly realized something.
Yes, without the Fu family, he is nothing, and Xiao Xin might even lose his life because of his incompetence...
Fu Yan burst into tears at the thought.
"I'm sorry..." he sobbed in a hoarse voice.
Qiao Chen grabbed his collar and dragged Fu Yan to Fu Qingting's feet: "Don't apologize to me, apologize to your dad."
Fu Yan prostrated himself at Fu Qingting's feet, kowtowing repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Dad, please save Xiao Xin."
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."
Fu Qingting looked at him silently, her anger finally subsiding by half.
“I will save Xiao Xin, but you must leave the country.” He said, “You are not allowed to return to the country without my permission, and you are not allowed to get close to Xiao Xin.”
Fu Yan looked up at Fu Qingting in disbelief, her eyes filled with confusion: "Why are you not allowed to get close to Xiao Xin?"
Fu Qingting frowned: "What, you won't agree?"
Fu Yan shook his head. "I just want to ask why."
Fu Qingting sighed, "Because you are not good enough for him now."
Fu Yan fell silent and shut his mouth.
The corridor fell silent instantly. Fu Yan wiped away her tears and calmed down.
He stood up from the ground and said to Fu Qingting, "Okay, I agree."
Fu Qingting nodded. "I will send someone to pick you up within three days."
Fu Yan lowered his eyes, which could be considered an admission.
Fu Qingting straightened his clothes, gave Fu Yan a heavy look, and turned to walk back.
Not long after he left, Fu Yan seemed to have all his strength drained away and fainted.
＊
The next day, Fu Yan woke up in his hospital bed. He pulled off the IV drip and his first instinct was to go find Xiao Xin.
He opened the door and saw Yu Muqing standing outside.
Yu Muqing glanced at the still-bleeding injection site on the back of his hand, put her arm around his shoulder, and walked back to Xiao Xin's ward.
"Jiang Yuqing has been arrested, along with Wang Lili."
Yu Muqing said to herself, "You know He Yunzhou is your older brother, right? I really didn't expect Jiang Yuqing to be this kind of person."
Fu Yan opened his chapped lips and interrupted him: "How is Xiao Xin?"
Yu Muqing paused for a moment and said, "He is still unconscious."
As they talked, they unknowingly arrived at the door of the ward.
Qiao Chen closed the door behind him and asked the doctor in front of him, "When will he wake up?"
Just as the doctor was about to speak, he caught sight of Yu Muqing and Fu Yan walking towards them out of the corner of his eye and stopped abruptly.
The doctor looked at Qiao Chen, who waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, please continue."
The doctor nodded, closed the medical record, and continued, "The patient was brought in due to excessive blood loss, resulting in his current unconscious state. The bullet was just one millimeter off the mark, and it landed right on his heart. So, the patient has essentially had a brush with death..."
Fu Yan stood behind Yu Muqing. The doctor's voice was like a bullet, heavy and powerful, piercing his eardrums and reaching his heart.
The atmosphere was somewhat serious. The doctor glanced at the three solemn faces and said, "Although the patient is temporarily out of danger, waking up will depend on his own will..."
Before he could finish speaking, Fu Yan pulled Yu Muqing away and grabbed the doctor's shoulders tightly: "What do you mean by that?"
