Lin Wanxing hung up the phone in annoyance, but Chen Xueping called again the next second.
Lin Wanxing hung up without even thinking, and then Chen Xueping sent him a text message, begging him to be lenient and let the Chen family go, and to let her and her mother go.
It's strange that someone like Chen Xueping would bow down and beg for mercy.
What exactly happened at the Chen Group? Why did she suddenly bow her head and admit her mistake? This left Lin Wanxing completely bewildered.
Chen Xueping is probably thinking of some way to cause trouble for me again. No matter what she says, Lin Wanxing won't believe her.
The Chen Group had long since ceased to have anything to do with him, and everything she had suffered had nothing to do with him either.
Lin Wanxing patted Allen's head and then happily went back to the kitchen to prepare lunch for her second brother.
After preparing the meal, Lin Wanxing happily packed the dishes into lunchboxes.
Zheng Hu drove him to the company. While sitting in the car, Lin Wanxing suddenly remembered that he needed to buy a fountain pen for his second brother.
"Zheng Hu, could you take me to the mall first?"
Zheng Hu was somewhat surprised: "Young Master, are you going to the mall to buy something?"
"Buy a fountain pen. My second brother's fountain pen never runs out of ink. I'm thinking of buying him a new one." Lin Wanxing had been thinking about Shen Huai'an, so he remembered everything about Shen Huai'an clearly.
"Okay." Zheng Hu turned around and headed to a shopping mall near the group's headquarters.
Lin Wanxing was selecting pens at the mall. The gift for his second brother had to be carefully chosen. Lin Wanxing looked down intently at the pens in the glass display case when a pen caught his eye.
"This pen, I want this one." Lin Wanxing immediately took a liking to the pen with the shiniest gold nib.
The sales clerk smiled and took out the pen. "You have excellent taste."
Lin Wanxing smiled as she looked at the fountain pen. "Could you please wrap it up for me?"
The sales clerk smiled and wrapped up the pen. She then asked Lin Wanxing, "Will you be paying in cash or by card?"
Lin Wanxing lowered his head and took out the card. Before he could hand it over, a large hand suddenly pressed down on his shoulder, and a hoarse voice sounded above his head.
"Swipe my card." Fang Yu handed the card to the sales clerk in advance.
Lin Wanxing looked up in surprise, blinked, and whispered, "I was the one who saw this pen first."
Fang Yu smiled at him and explained, "Swipe my card, and I'll give you this pen as a gift."
Lin Wanxing was even more confused. "Why did you give me this? Do we know each other?"
“Wanxing, we’ve met before, haven’t you forgotten? You went to my family’s charity gala with your sister and stepmother last time.”
Lin Wanxing looked at him carefully for a few more moments, trying hard to recall, and suddenly he remembered, "You are Fang Ze's older brother, Fang Yu."
Fang Yu nodded: "It's me. You finally remembered."
"But we've only met once, why did you give me a fountain pen?" Although they had met and could be considered acquaintances, Lin Wanxing knew that she and he didn't have much of a relationship. Why would he give her a fountain pen, especially since it wasn't cheap?
Fang Yu seemed alright, unlike Fang Ze who was full of bad intentions, so Lin Wanxing didn't doubt his motives.
"Consider this a thank-you gift; I really want to thank you this time."
Lin Wanxing was completely confused. He didn't understand why Fang Yu was thanking him. "Why are you thanking me?"
"Thank you for helping me!" Fang Yu is now the new heir, and he can finally hold his head high and no longer be suppressed by Fang Ze.
Fang Yu was wearing a bespoke suit. His voice was hoarse, and his deep eyes were very captivating, especially when he leaned down slightly to look at Lin Wanxing.
He was very tall, and his presence blocked part of the light. Lin Wanxing looked up at him and said, "I didn't do anything!"
Fang Yu patted his shoulder, looked down at him, and said softly, "Wanxing will understand in the future. When you get home and see your second brother, please thank him for me."
Lin Wanxing stood blankly in his shadow, nodding stupidly.
Fang Yu exudes an air of nobility in every gesture. With his broad shoulders and narrow waist, the well-tailored suit makes him look like a male protagonist straight out of a beautiful comic book.
"You came to the mall alone? How could Shen Er dare to let you out alone? It's so dangerous outside, and you're so cute. What if you get kidnapped?" Fang Yu smiled, his deep eyes like an endless night suddenly descending, making Lin Wanxing subconsciously feel a little uncomfortable.
His eyes suddenly filled Lin Wanxing with inexplicable fear. He subconsciously took a step back, lowered his eyes and looked away, whispering, "My second brother is very busy with work."
"Look at Shen Er, he actually left a poor thing like you hanging on the sidelines. Isn't he afraid of losing you? He's not a good lover at all." Fang Yu added fuel to the fire, "No matter how busy he is with work, he can't neglect you, right?"
"That's not true. My second brother didn't know I was here. He was busy making money for me to spend, so he didn't neglect me."
Lin Wanxing lowered his head and explained in a low voice. He felt that Fang Yu's demeanor was somewhat different from that of him at the banquet that day. In any case, Lin Wanxing was a little scared.
This little thing is really hard to fool. Fang Yu smiled and took the pen from the salesperson, handing it to Lin Wanxing.
"Here you go!"
Lin Wanxing took the pen from his hand with trembling hands. "Thank you, I'll be going now."
After saying that, he hurriedly ran away. Fang Yu looked at Lin Wanxing and suddenly sneered.
Of course he should thank Shen Er properly. Fang Ze, that idiot, is in this position precisely because he offended Shen Er.
