Chapter 12.12 This is simply a harmful rumor.

"Know what?"

Lin Zhao was still pondering why Lü Yuanyuan was so agitated.

Suddenly, Fu Yansheng's voice came from the doorway.

I subconsciously turned my head to look at the door.

Fu Yansheng stood at the door, his cold eyes watching Lü Yuanyuan's questioning look at Lin Zhao.

He didn't look well.

When Lü Yuanyuan turned her head and saw Fu Yansheng, her questioning expression calmed down upon seeing him.

After the impulsive act, all that remained in Lü Yuanyuan's heart was fear.

He actually blurted it out so casually while still in the Fu family home?

They didn't even check their surroundings.

They were completely unaware that Fu Yansheng had already returned home.

Did Fu Yansheng hear what was said earlier?

How much did you hear?

Lu Yuanyuan felt a little scared, and cold sweat broke out on her back. She dared not stay there any longer.

He feared that he would implicate the Lü family, which would mean being abandoned by them and becoming a sinner to them.

He was not the heir of the Lü family, and in the Lü family's view, he could be abandoned at any time.

In that case, he would have even less chance of getting the person he wanted.

"Zhao Zhao, I'm leaving now. Think it over carefully." Lü Yuanyuan didn't speak to Fu Yansheng and turned to leave.

Fu Yansheng, however, did not indulge him.

The Fu family is not a place where anyone can come and go as they please.

His voice was icy, and his eyes were filled with coldness: "Is this how the Lü family teaches its juniors? They don't even know to greet the host when they visit or leave."

Lu Yuanyuan's face stiffened upon hearing this.

Anyone who has just said something bad will be caught red-handed and their face will turn ugly.

He greeted Fu Yansheng in a low voice.

His tone was extremely reluctant, as if he had been forced to speak by Fu Yansheng.

"Mr. Fu, I apologize for bothering you."

Lu Yuanyuan spoke through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yansheng walked straight inside.

He didn't seem to care about Lü Yuanyuan at all.

Lu Yuanyuan only dared to act this way because she was relying on the Lu family.

It's actually not worth mentioning.

Lin Zhao felt the atmosphere was strange, and Fu Yansheng's expression didn't soften even after Lü Yuanyuan left.

Fu Yansheng walked up to Lin Zhao, without waiting for Lin Zhao to speak.

Lin Zhao then saw Fu Yansheng reach out and hug her.

He is very strong.

Lin Zhao had never seen Fu Yansheng like this before.

It felt like a precious treasure would be stolen from me at any moment.

Fragile, with a touch of sensitivity.

"Lin Rong and Lü Yuanyuan both think I'm not a good person."

Fu Yansheng spoke softly, as if trying his best to hide his heartache.

Lin Zhao felt a tremor in her heart upon hearing this.

Fu Yansheng and Lin Zhao have known each other since childhood.

Lin Zhao thought she knew Fu Yansheng very well, but Fu Yansheng always appeared cold and reliable in front of her.

He had never seen Fu Yansheng like this before.

They are prone to anxiety and worry about what others say.

Lin Zhao hadn't expected that Brother Fu would care so much about what her brother and Lü Yuanyuan said.

"They're talking nonsense, they don't know you at all." Lin Zhao hurriedly comforted Fu Yansheng, and looked up to look at him, but Fu Yansheng pulled her into his arms.

Feeling the comfort of Lin Zhao in his arms, Fu Yansheng tightened his arms around her.

Lin Zhao rested her chin on Fu Yansheng's shoulder, feeling that Fu Yansheng was acting strangely today.

She blinked, about to ask a question, when she noticed that Fu Yansheng, who was holding her, suddenly let go.

"Zhaozhao is so good."

Just four words were enough for Lin Zhao to put her doubts to the back of her mind.

Lin Zhao's eyes crinkled with laughter, and joy radiated from her entire being.

Fu Yansheng is praising himself!

Although Fu Yansheng often praised Lin Zhao, Lin Zhao always felt happy inside whenever she heard Fu Yansheng's praise.

That's Fu Yansheng!

Fu Yansheng, who took over the Fu Group at a young age!

He's a business genius in everyone's eyes!

But now a genius is praising me!

"Brother Fu is the best." Lin Zhao smiled as she looked at Fu Yansheng in front of her, gently bumping Fu Yansheng's shoulder, and happily praising Fu Yansheng to each other.

Everything's fine, everyone's doing well~

Lin Zhao didn't believe a single word of what Lü Yuanyuan said.

Lin Zhao has known Fu Yansheng since she was three years old. When she was a child, Fu Yansheng always stood up for her when she was wronged.

Even when he was unhappy, it was Fu Yansheng, who was only three years older than him, who would gently coax him and cheer him up little by little.

It is obvious who Lin Zhaoxin is.

For dinner, they chose a restaurant that Lin Zhao liked, and Fu Yansheng first served Lin Zhao some food.

Watching Lin Zhao eat, she would occasionally look up at her with bright, sparkling eyes.

She appears gentle and docile on the surface, but is actually incredibly stubborn.

"I'm going back to the old house in a couple of days. Uncle Lai is there, so I can ask him for anything I want, and I don't have to go to work," Fu Yansheng said softly as he served food to Lin Zhao.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao looked up at Fu Yansheng.

Seeing that Fu Yansheng's face showed no other emotion.

Lin Zhao assumed that returning to the old house was an arrangement made by the Fu family, and obediently nodded.

Seeing that her bowl was getting fuller and fuller, Lin Zhao quickly picked up her chopsticks and put some food on Fu Yansheng's plate as well: "I'll just go to work as usual. If you need anything, you can call me directly."

I'm an assistant now, how can I just stop working?

Seeing Lin Zhao obediently eating her rice, Fu Yansheng gently told her to get up later in the morning, not daring to rush her.

"I won't go to the company after I go back to the old house. Assistant Fan knows that. If you need anything, just go to Assistant Fan."

Fu Yansheng knew that no matter what he said, Lin Zhao would not stay home to rest.

So I changed my approach.

As expected, Fu Yansheng saw Lin Zhao obediently nodding, just as he had hoped.

After dinner, Fu Yansheng accompanied Lin Zhao back home, standing there watching Lin Zhao run back to her room.

It has been confirmed that Lin Zhao is ready to rest.

Fu Yansheng then sat down on the sofa, closed his eyes slightly, but his breathing gradually became rapid, and his face visibly turned pale.

Uncle Lai stood behind Fu Yansheng, feeling a little nervous.

Uncle Lai had asked Fu Yansheng if he wanted to go back to the old house a while earlier, but Fu Yansheng hadn't planned to go back at the time.

But now Fu Yansheng has taken the initiative to tell Lin Zhao that he wants to go back.

That means we've reached a point where we have no choice but to go back.

"Get the car ready, we're heading back to the old house now."

Fu Yansheng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and the tenderness he had shown towards Lin Zhao was replaced by coldness. His lips turned pale and his complexion was not good.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Lai immediately called his driver, who was already prepared, and asked him to bring the car to the door.

Uncle Lai's heart clenched as he watched Fu Yansheng leave.

No one expected that Fu Yansheng's return to the old house this month would be brought forward.

Fu Yansheng disliked the old house, and he would never return to it unless it was the very last minute.

Lin Zhao woke up.

Uncle Lai then told Mr. Lin Zhaofu that he had returned to the old house and would probably stay for a few days.

This tells Lin Zhao not to worry.

The driver was already prepared and would take Lin Zhao to work after she finished her meal.

If Lin Zhao doesn't want to go to work, she can simply rest at home.

Fu Yansheng arranged almost everything for Lin Zhao.

No matter what choice she makes, Lin Zhao will never be bored.

At home, there's a computer and TV, and Uncle Lai keeps Lin Zhao company and helps her pass the time.

At the company, Assistant Fan had already prepared food, drinks, and entertainment. He even installed a new desk for Lin Zhao in Fu Yansheng's office, as requested by Fu Yansheng.

When Lin Zhao arrived at the company, she discovered Fu Yansheng's arrangements.

Looking at the computer on his desk and the small cart next to it filled with his favorite snacks, milk tea, and cakes, he saw...

Lin Zhao turned to look at Assistant Fan with some disbelief.

"These are all for me?"

Assistant Fan nodded, a smile on his face and a hint of gentleness in his eyes.

"Yes, it was all arranged by President Fu. If you want to eat something else, you can call me directly through the intercom. President Fu has arranged everything: Uncle Lai will deliver lunch."

Lin Zhao nodded and said "oh" twice, looking a little embarrassed.

A pair of bright, round eyes stared at her own desk, feeling a little incredulous and out of place.

I know nothing, yet I'm being treated so formally.

It's a strange feeling.

Moreover, Brother Fu was also very strange. He only said that he was going back to his old house and didn't leave any other words.

However, judging from how natural Fan Zhu looked, Brother Fu should be fine.

Lin Zhao thought to herself, then moved the mouse and began happily watching the show.

This relaxed state didn't last long. Fu Yansheng didn't appear at the company for three days in a row, and Lin Zhao started to panic.

The world of the wealthy has been anything but peaceful these past few days.

First, the Lin family's project encountered obstacles and some problems with the cash flow. Lin Rong has been extremely busy with this matter these past few days.

Later, several companies led by Liu Lü also seemed to have been caught red-handed.

The obstacles within the company became more and more serious each time.

I don't know if it's because they offended someone, but the problems they encounter seem to be playing a joke on them.

The situation might be serious one day, but it might be better the next. Just when they breathed a sigh of relief, the project suddenly became impossible to continue.

It's really strange, but no one can guess what it is.

Lin Zhao only heard the gist of it; it happened in the break room when the staff were chatting and relaxing.

When the employees of the Fu Group first saw Lin Zhao, they did not know her identity. They only thought that Lin Zhao was a newcomer who had just graduated from school and had the good fortune to enter the Fu Group.

In addition, Lin Zhao is very pretty and speaks very nicely.

The female employees of the Fu Group particularly enjoyed chatting with Lin Zhao.

Even for their usual afternoon tea, they would order an extra portion for Lin Zhao.

Later, Fan Zhu caught him in the act and called out Lin Zhao's name.

Only then did everyone realize that Lin Zhao was actually the fake young master of the Lin family.

This discovery made the female employees of the Fu Group feel even more sorry for Lin Zhao.

After discovering his true identity, he resolutely left the Lin family and was forced to work for the Fu Group. Even though he had no desire for anything from the Lin family, people online still suspected and wronged him.

But Lin Zhao showed no dissatisfaction, remained kind to people, and showed no airs at all when she was with them.

Such an obedient girl as Zhao Zhao has been portrayed online as a scheming villain who tries every means to stay in the Lin family in hopes of getting a share of the family fortune.

This is simply a harmful rumor!

"I wonder who's jealous of Zhaozhao and would say something like that."

Lin Zhao sat in the tea room with a strawberry cake in front of her.

It was afternoon tea ordered by the female employee this afternoon, specifically for Lin Zhao.

As Lin Zhao listened to their conversation, she couldn't resist scooping up a piece of strawberry with a spoon and putting it in her mouth.

Chew~

The next second, the sour taste spread through her mouth, and Lin Zhao's whole face scrunched up.

It's so sour I can't speak.

"Zhao Zhao is too kind, letting them say whatever they want. Sigh, if it weren't for President Fu's few days each month when he doesn't take care of things, the new rumors that have surfaced these past two days would have been suppressed long ago."

The female employee stirred the soup spoon with one hand, the sound of sugar cubes clinking in the coffee cup audible, her tone wistful.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao snapped out of her reverie and was momentarily stunned.

"Does Brother Fu spend a few days a month away from the company?"

A note from the author:

----------------------

-Today's Mini-Theater:

The Liu and Lü families (unlucky): I feel like things haven't been going well for the last couple of days. I should find a place to pray. [question mark]

Fu Yansheng (drinking coffee): Instead of praying, why not find Zhao Zhao? [dog head with rose in hand] As for why, you can guess. [okay]

Lin Zhao (resting her hand on her confused face): Huh? I was eavesdropping on gossip at the company, what does this have to do with me? [Please]

The female employee (glancing at the child, then cursing): Rumors are harmful! Rumors are harmful! [Angry]
