Chapter 5252 Goodbye, Fu Yunlu.
Fu Yunlu was awakened by a strong feeling of nausea. He clutched his throat and leaned against the bed, retching. Liang Guanyue patted his back and asked worriedly, "Are you okay, brother?"
Fu Yunlu held his hand, looked up and saw Noila Mo was there too, shook her head and said hoarsely: "I'm fine, what happened..."
Before Liang Guanyue could answer, Noila Mo said, "I injected you with a powerful medicine. Your vomiting is a side effect of the medicine."
Fu Yunlu held his forehead and groaned in pain, then said after a while, "Am I sick?"
Liang Guanyue said, "Yes, brother, how come you didn't take good care of yourself during the past few days I was at school?"
"There have been so many upsetting things lately, I've been so busy I'm a bit dizzy." Fu Yunlu was afraid Liang Guanyue would be unhappy, so she explained to him and asked, "Are you going back to the dormitory today?"
"I'm not going back." Liang Guanyue stroked his cheek and said considerately, "Brother, you've been like this since I left. I'm worried about you."
Nora interrupted their 'tender' conversation and raised her hand, saying, "Sorry, now is not the time to chat. Fu Yunlu, you should be curious about why I injected you with a powerful healing agent without regard for your health."
Fu Yunlu pulled herself away from Liang Guanyue's gentle embrace, looked up at Noila Mo, and said with a bad feeling, "How long have I been unconscious?"
Nora said, "You'll have to ask your little lover about this."
Liang Guanyue said, "It's been six hours. Doctor Nora was going to give you an IV drip, and she'd already used up a bottle, but your brother still didn't wake up. I was scared to death." He frowned and said, "Then Doctor Nora asked me about your condition, and I said you still didn't move..."
Nora continued, "So I turned back." She nodded, "In an emergency, I decided to force you to wake up. You should check the computer first."
Fu Yunlu turned on his computer, and the notification bar was filled with messages from Fu Yunliang and Zhao Yi, and even a message from Fu Liaoyan. His expression immediately grew serious. Nora said, "Just an hour ago, several news agencies reported on a video of an omega before his death. He was the only person in the video, but the voice wasn't." She said in a deep voice, "You should know whose video this is."
Fu Yunlu hurried to check the video disclosed online, muttering in disbelief: "...Impossible, I deleted the original file myself...Even Ji Shun wouldn't have a backup, where did they get the video from..."
Nora remained silent. She was just a doctor. She could only take care of the patients' bodies. She could do nothing about such things.
Liang Guanyue loosened Fu Yunlu's clenched hand one finger at a time, then interlocked her fingers with his and comforted him, "Don't worry, it's just a video."
Fu Yunlu placed their clasped hands in front of his forehead, as if praying to gain strength.
Nora sighed and wanted to say something, but seeing Fu Yunlu's current state, she was afraid it was too late to say anything. She glanced at Liang Guanyue and left with a complicated expression.
Liang Guanyue hugged him and smiled, "I will stay with you."
Fu Yunlu felt the warmth of Liang Guanyue's body, and his tense emotions relaxed briefly. He said in a hoarse voice, "...Don't leave me."
"I won't leave you."
"Even if I didn't handle it well."
"How can you give up so easily when you haven't even started?" Liang Guanyue said with a smile, "Brother, this is unlike you."
Love can make the invincible become cowardly. Fu Yunlu wondered, if he lost his current power, would Liang Guanyue still be willing to stay by his side?
He didn't want to think about it anymore. After all, now was not the time to be sentimental.
He first called Zhao Yi back to find out what was going on. Liang Guanyue wanted to leave to avoid suspicion, but Fu Yunlu didn't let go of her interlocked hands. She placed them on her lips and kissed them, whispering, "Just stay here with me, okay?"
"..." Liang Guanyue looked at him for a while before saying, "Of course."
Zhao Yi got straight to the point: "Yunlu, what's up with that leaked video? Didn't you delete it? Or did the Court of Justice save a backup while investigating the case?"
Fu Yunlu said, "I personally deleted the source file, and I'm sure the Court of Justice doesn't have a backup. I don't know how this file got leaked."
"Where's your assistant? Does he have one?" Zhao Yi asked, "Maybe you were too busy during that time, so you handed part of this matter over to him."
"He didn't. I am fully responsible for Fu Yunliang's case, mother."
Zhao Yi asked nervously, "What should we do now? Your father has also seen the video, and it's going viral online. They're even analyzing the audio, trying to guess who the other voice belongs to. Rumors are already circulating that it's Fu Yunliang..."
Fu Yunlu remained silent for a long time until Zhao Yi urged her, then she said, "Where's Fu Yunliang?"
"He's here with me..."
"Let him come over. I have something to ask him."
Fu Yunlu had a terrible headache and subconsciously wanted to smoke. She had already taken a cigarette out of the box, but then she remembered that Liang Guanyue was still here, so she put it back, raised her head and pecked his lips, just to satisfy her craving.
Fu Yunliang on the other side called out "brother" timidly, and Fu Yunlu said angrily: "Don't call me brother."
Fu Yunliang begged for mercy: "Brother...you can't not save me at this time, I am your brother!"
"Haven't I saved you enough over the years?!" he growled. "Fu Yunliang, tell me honestly, did you keep a copy of the video for yourself back then?!"
"...I..." Fu Yunliang murmured, "I, I am..."
Fu Yunlu understood everything after hearing his attitude. She was so angry that she almost fainted again: "Why did you keep the video from me? You used it as a show-off, and who else did you show it to?!"
"I didn't... I just thought he was crazy and rushed towards me holding the glass, and I was scared, so I fired the gun... My action can be considered self-defense!" Fu Yunliang defended himself, "Even if it wasn't self-defense, he was also wrong, wasn't he? I gave him more than one million yuan in rewards, just to get him to sacrifice himself... Who knew he would refuse to obey and even wanted to hurt me..." He muttered, "I don't think this is all my fault..."
Fu Yunlu said fiercely: "So you didn't listen to my advice and kept the video privately. Fu Yunliang, who did you give the video to? If you still want to lie to me now——"
Fu Yunliang shouted in despair: "...I fucking gave it to Ji Shun!"
Fu Yunlu was stunned and repeated in disbelief, "You gave it to Ji Shun? Why would you give it to him? Fu Yunliang, don't you have a brain?"
"...Do you remember the year we were banished from the main city? A few days before we left, I went to a bar to get drunk. You were afraid that I would get drunk and cause trouble because I was kicked out of the main city, so you sent Ji Shun to pick me up."
Fu Yunliang heard Fu Yunlu didn't say anything, so he continued, "I was drunk and thought he looked pretty good... so I was with him at home... Ji Shun was a little resistant at first, but after kissing for a while, he suddenly called me Fu Yunlu... I knew I looked a bit like you, brother, so I understood that he might like you."
"I thought if he liked you, he couldn't betray you, and I felt aggrieved about what happened with Jiang Lian. You all thought it was all my fault—so after we were done, I showed him the video and complained to him that it wasn't entirely my fault. I didn't expect that I would pass out drunk a little while later..."
Fu Yunlu laughed after hearing this. He said while laughing, "Fu Yunliang, you should really be thankful that your mother favors you."
Without your mother's favor, you, who are so arrogant, stupid and good-for-nothing, should have died long ago.
Fu Yunliang whispered, "Mother, why did my brother suddenly say this..."
Fu Yunlu said, "Just pray that I can handle this perfectly, you piece of shit."
Although Fu Yunliang was angry, he couldn't say anything in reply as he needed help. He simply let Zhao Yi and Fu Yunlu continue talking. Zhao Yi said gently, "Yunlu, don't be angry. Don't let your emotions control you."
Fu Yunlu clenched her teeth, breathing so hard that her chest kept rising and falling, as if she was desperately suppressing her anger. After a while, she whispered, "Mother, do you love me?"
Zhao Yi said, "Of course I love you. You are the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to. You are an Alpha who has made the leader and I worry-free and proud since childhood. How could I not love you?"
"But you always thought that I was just a child born out of the Zhao family's needs, and Fu Yunliang was your choice made out of love and freedom—"
Zhao Yi said without hesitation, "Fu Yunlu, stop talking nonsense."
Fu Yunlu closed her eyes: "You don't love me at all. You only act gentle when you need me." He hugged Liang Guanyue tightly, as if this would provide support. "Mother, I'm not a fool."
Zhao Yi couldn't understand: "You weren't like this before. Yunlu, you're already thirty years old. In this crisis, you're still like a child, unable to distinguish between the important and the urgent. Are you asking for proof of your mother's love for you?"
She paused, and seemed a little angry. "Why don't you say these words to your father? Do you think he loves you, but I have no feelings for you?"
Fu Yunlu said softly: "...That's because I have no expectations of him, but you are different——"
"Okay, Yunlu, stop making a fuss. We should focus on the real thing." Zhao Yi interrupted impatiently, "This matter will not only affect your brother, but also you. Your image is perfect in the eyes of the public, but precisely because of this, you cannot tolerate even the slightest stain, otherwise the backlash will only intensify."
"...I just hope..." He just hoped that his mother could give him some gentle affirmation as he felt so uneasy.
But as Zhao Yi said, Fu Yunlu has missed the age to act coquettishly and show weakness to adults - even when he was a child, he was constantly being domesticated into an adult - his perfect image does not only exist among the people, so he needs to face everyone who looks at him with an omnipotent and lofty attitude.
"I understand," Fu Yunlu said. "I will first explain the situation to my father and then prevent the video from spreading further."
Zhao Yi sighed wearily. "You should have done this the moment the video was leaked, but I don't know what you were doing. I can't even contact you." She said, "I've asked the Zhao family to delete it from the internet for you, but the person who posted this video seems to have an unusual background, and the Zhao family can't deal with it."
Fu Yunlu said, "Thank you, mother. I will make sure that Nino Bingya will not find any information about this video in two hours."
Zhao Yi hummed a nod and hung up the call with Fu Yunlu. Fu Yunlu sat on the bed in silence for two seconds, then lifted the quilt and said to Liang Guanyue soothingly, "Did I scare you just now? I'm sorry to have embarrassed you." He leaned over and kissed Liang Guanyue on the lips, saying gently, "Things have changed. I'll be a little busy for a while, and I might not be able to contact you. You should go back to school. Don't you have activities to prepare for?"
He took off his clothes and changed into a brand new suit. He walked over and stroked the corners of Liang Guanyue's eyes with his thumbs: "I'll pick you up from school when I've taken care of everything. Okay?"
Liang Guanyue stared into his eyes quietly without saying a word. Fu Yunlu looked down at the time and said, "How about you sleep here tonight? It's too late, the dormitory might be closed. I'll ask someone to come here and take you back to school tomorrow morning."
After that, he handed Liang Guanyue another card: "There are 50 million star coins in it. The password is your birthday. This will be your start-up capital for your business."
"..." Liang Guanyue frowned slightly. Fu Yunlu saw it and smiled, "Why are you frowning?"
Liang Guanyue asked, "Why did you suddenly give me so much money?"
Fu Yunlu sighed, "I'm worried that you'll attract a lot of attention while I'm busy. I don't want to find out later that you're surrounded by someone like Li Wenting or Wang Wenting when I have some free time." He cupped Liang Guanyue's cheeks with both hands, raised his head slightly and kissed her, smiling, "You seem to have grown taller. I'll take you shopping for new clothes next time when we have time. You can choose whatever clothes you want this time, and I won't interfere, okay?"
“…”
"I'm leaving. Take care of yourself and don't get too tired from the activities. Got it?"
“…”
Fu Yunlu smiled helplessly and said, "Say something appropriate for my brother to hear."
Liang Guanyue reached out and touched the mole under his lip, looked into his eyes, and smiled softly: "Goodbye, Fu Yunlu."
