Chapter 68 Liang Guanyue has a few scenes in this chapter
"Brother." Fu Xiaoyu smiled and pushed a sealed file bag in front of him. Fu Yunlu glanced at her and made up her mind. She didn't open it immediately. Instead, she asked, "Is this the reason why the Third Princess came to District 53 today?"
"You know what's inside." Fu Xiaoyu said quietly, "You killed someone."
Fu Yunlu looked at her calmly, then suddenly smiled. He leaned back in his chair, crossed his hands on his knees, and said, "Is that the evidence you found in there?"
"No. It's the file of a civilian Alpha."
Fu Yunlu was stunned for a moment, and her eyes turned cold instantly: "What does this have to do with me?"
"The person you killed was his biological father. Doesn't this have anything to do with you? If it has nothing to do with you, does it have something to do with this Alpha—"
"Fu Xiaoyu."
"Brother, you're angry." Fu Xiaoyu propped up her head and said with a smile, "It's rare to see you reveal your true colors so quickly."
Fu Yunlu closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before she was able to control her emotions and discuss it with her: "How did you find out?"
"There's a saying from ancient Earth: 'If you don't want others to know, don't do it yourself.'" Fu Xiaoyu said, "You're under multiple supervision now. It's not as easy to handle murder as before, so naturally, there will be traces." She changed the subject, "But for now, I'm the only one who knows about this."
Fu Yunlu asked: "Terms of the transaction."
"I want you to use all the forces in the main city for my benefit." Fu Xiaoyu stared at Fu Yunlu, "Including the William family."
Fu Yunlu quickly refused: "This is not for me to decide."
"Your interests are intertwined with theirs. How can it not be your decision?"
Fu Yunlu sneered, "You want to use this to undermine me, don't I understand?" He said, "If you think the evidence you've collected can threaten me, then you can try." Fu Yunlu laughed cruelly, "I don't do anything without preparation."
Fu Xiaoyu had expected his refusal. Even though the possibility of Fu Yunlu getting the inheritance rights was very slim, asking him to give up all his cards was tantamount to a provocation to him.
However, once a person has a weakness, it's easy to deal with. Fu Xiaoyu calmly opened the file bag, took out the first piece of paper inside, and read: "Liang Guanyue, Gender: Alpha, Height..."
"Your Highness, the Third Princess." Fu Yunlu suddenly interrupted her, leaning forward and warning, "People have their limits."
"You mean, your bottom line is him?"
Fu Xiaoyu shook the paper in his hand, and Fu Yunlu could see Liang Guanyue's ID photo printed on it. He clenched his hands and said coldly, "He didn't do anything illegal. You have no right to touch him."
"Haven't you done a lot of things you weren't qualified to do?" Fu Xiaoyu laughed. "Why, you can't do that to me? Besides, the Second Prince's downfall and Ji Shun's suicide—it's hard to say whether he's truly innocent or just pretending to be."
"Fu Chaoyang brought this upon himself, he has no one else to blame."
"Indeed. However, if I tell my father everything Liang Guanyue did——"
Fu Yunlu froze, his eyes slightly wide. With an extremely tense and alert attitude, he took the file bag from the table, squeezing it until it nearly broke. He said in a deep voice, "I want to return to the main city simply because... Anyway, I won't compete with you for the position of head of state, Fu Xiaoyu. I'm not qualified right now, and I don't have that desire."
"I still have the same request."
“…”
Fu Xiaoyu said frankly, "You're very smart. If you could become the head of state, you'd be an excellent leader. At least District 53 is now in good shape under your management, right? - So even in this situation, I'm still not confident in you."
Fu Yunlu's breathing quickened, his brow furrowed. Fu Xiaoyu pushed the page of information in her hand into Fu Yunlu's sight and asked, "For him, you risked being discovered by the head of state and dealt with a gambler for him."
Fu Yunlu didn't say anything, just looked at the smiling photo of Liang Guanyue on the paper.
"Actually, why don't you just give him the money?" Fu Xiaoyu asked curiously, "Could it be that you're short of a few million?"
Fu Yunlu replied, "Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant. This time I paid off millions of gambling debts for this person. He will only think that he has a backer and will become even more aggressive."
"The prince of Nino Baja is not short of tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions." Fu Xiaoyu shrugged. "Didn't you spend hundreds of millions on the island you built earlier? Selling that island would be more than enough to support a disabled person."
Fu Yunlu had sold the island when he arrived at District 53. He had covered 70% of the initial expenses for the shield reinforcement, but how long could he sustain this? Perhaps Fu Yunlu could afford it for a year or two, but ten or twenty years—that wasn't a long-term solution. He had to reform from within.
"I can support a gambler for... a living," Fu Yunlu said, "but I shouldn't be the supporter of this man who abandoned his wife and children."
Liang Guanyue didn't want his father to live. If he really did what Fu Xiaoyu suggested, it would probably hurt Liang Guanyue.
If this person is not dealt with, he will only become a blood-sucking worm, and if Liang Guanyue deals with him personally, he will only be splattered with blood.
Fu Xiaoyu said: "So, tell me what you think."
"..." Fu Yunlu pursed her lips, thought for a long time, and finally gave in, "I will contact them. But you'd better not give them too many orders. Especially the William family." Clave will definitely do things for Fu Xiaoyu for his sake, but given the status of the William family, they don't need to be ordered around.
"Don't worry, the fact that the William family is willing to express their support for me is enough." Fu Xiaoyu stood up. "Now that my work is done, I'll leave first. But I see soldiers patrolling the streets constantly. Could there have been a Zerg invasion a while ago?"
Fu Yunlu did not deny it: "The protective shield blocked it, but it is better to be on guard against it."
"Fu Yunlu, do you know that when the remaining human species first flew out of the Milky Way and settled on various planets in the interstellar space, there were no Zerg in the first hundred years?"
Fu Yunlu said, "I know. The Zerg appeared suddenly."
"To fight the Zerg, the previously scattered factions united and signed the Covenant of Freedom and Equality. This alliance eventually evolved into the Federation, and from then on, the Nino-Asia alliance was formed," Fu Xiaoyu said. "True internal unity always emerges when external threats emerge."
Fu Xiaoyu walked to the window with her back to him, her fiery red curly hair looking as thick as blood in the sunlight coming through the window lattice.
Fu Yunlu frowned, stood up, and said, "You want me to take advantage of this Zerg attack to further expand my prestige."
Fu Xiaoyu looked at the green leaves outside the window and said, "A chaotic society needs a hero. Let them in, and then eliminate them at the right time - isn't this also a case of heroes being made by the times?"
Fu Yunlu was silent for two seconds, then said, "I have to admit that if Ninoy Aquino was in a period of war, you would be more suitable than anyone else to sit on the throne of the head of state."
Fu Xiaoyu turned around, curled his lips and smiled, "Just a suggestion. In peacetime, I like to do things openly and honestly."
Fu Yunlu scoffed. "As a decision-maker, I'm not so incompetent as to sacrifice a group of innocent people for my own reputation," he said. "In many personal matters, I may have acted with impunity. But this concerns the entire 53rd District. I need to be responsible for the lives and future of the citizens of Ninoy Alam."
Fu Xiaoyu shrugged and patted Fu Yunlu's shoulder as he walked past him. "I heard that the last time you returned to the main city, you went to the research institute?"
“…”
"Your lover is an Alpha, and you are also an Alpha." Fu Xiaoyu pondered for a while and said with a smile, "I heard that the institute's latest project is in the final stage of human experiments. Brother, have you signed up for it—"
Fu Yunlu slapped her hand away and said coldly, "Your Highness the Third Princess won't have to worry about that."
"I just want to tell you that the prince is gay, which is enough to bring shame to the royal family." Fu Xiaoyu said with a hint of meaning, "If it is discovered, and the prince is even pregnant, you must be prepared to bear all the consequences."
Fu Yunlu stared at her in silence. Fu Xiaoyu helplessly spread her hands and said, "I know you can keep it a secret. But hiding it from those civilians is one thing, hiding it from your father is another."
"It has nothing to do with you." Fu Yunlu thought, as long as she could make sure that Liang Guanyue would not be implicated, it would be fine.
Fu Xiaoyu didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he shook his head and left his office.
After Fu Xiaoyu left, he first spoke to Clough to explain the situation, explaining: "You don't have to help Fu Xiaoyu. Just don't object every time she makes a proposal to the Senate."
"That's nothing... It's just that Yunlu, your child has been very close to an Omega recently. I'm not deliberately spying on him, but that Omega has an ordinary background and his family is at best well-off. If his family was prominent, I would have thought he was just playing around, but-"
Fu Yunlu rubbed her temples, and the momentum she had just maintained in her confrontation with Fu Xiaoyu instantly vanished. She said exhaustedly, "I know."
"You have to be careful... huh? You know that?" Clough asked in surprise. "You know that and you're not angry?"
Fu Yunlu said: "I have no right to be angry, as he and I have nothing to do with each other." After saying that, he sneered at himself - at best, he was just a cannon, a friend.
"So just leave it at that?"
"I've already been to the main city earlier this month."
He specifically exchanged the terminal's contact information with Liang Guanyue's friend Fan Na. Although he wanted to maintain Liang Guanyue's self-esteem, just like older people will always feel uneasy when dealing with children, he asked her to tell him when Liang Guanyue needed help.
Liang Guanyue's abnormal behavior that day made Fanna decide to contact Fu Yunlu. After that, Fu Yunlu rushed to the main city without stopping and saw Liang Guanyue preparing to kill his biological father.
Fu Yunlu said, "Even if I want to ask for an explanation in person, I have to go next month." He could of course go a second time regardless of the head of state's restrictions, but that would bring a lot of trouble afterwards.
Besides, Fu Yunlu thought that even if he went, he probably wouldn't get any nice response, and he wanted to avoid hearing the unpleasant words until next month.
"All right……"
Clough hesitated for a few seconds, and Fu Yunlu smiled and said, "Tell me, what else is there?"
"Let me be clear, I really didn't spy on your lover. It was Hilde who went to Liang Guanyue's company last time and told me that he saw that Omega coming out of his office..."
“…”
"Fu Yunlu?"
“…”
"Hello? Hello? Are you listening?"
"...I'm listening." Fu Yunlu held her forehead and said obscurely, "I understand. Thank you, Clough. I have something else to do later, so I won't talk about it for now."
Would he like children? If not… Fu Yunlu hung up the phone and, seemingly calm, took out two bottles of medicine from the drawer. Just as he was about to swallow them with water, he suddenly remembered something. Would the drug he injected at the research institute last time conflict with these drugs? Damn, he was so busy that he even forgot to ask about this matter.
Fortunately, Academician Julie prepared a follow-up injection for him. He brought it back to Area 53. He only needed to inject it on time and then wait for the next susceptible period. Anyway, his susceptible period was more frequent than other Alphas. He had always disliked this frequency before, but now he felt it was much more convenient and easier than once a year.
Fu Yunlu sat in the chair in a daze for a while, until her hands could be controlled again, and then she sent a message to Liang Guanyue: "Guanyue, do you like children?"
Liang Guanyue was probably not busy, so she replied quickly: "I don't like it. All kids, get out of here."
"What about your biological children?"
Liang Guanyue sent a voice message: "Who gave birth? You gave birth?"
"Can."
"Heh." Liang Guanyue snorted, as if listening to a joke. "Alpha, just save the energy. Every time you get a promotion, doesn't it hurt like hell?"
"It's okay." Fu Yunlu listened to Liang Guanyue's voice, and a smile appeared in her eyes. "Can't you bear it every time?"
Liang Guanyue didn't know what this man was crazy about, but he didn't take it seriously and replied lazily: "If brother has the ability, then give birth."
Fu Yunlu knew Liang Guanyue thought it was just a joke. He typed and deleted the words, wanting to tell him that he was serious, but he seemed to know that the other party would definitely refuse.
Should I wait until I'm pregnant before telling him? If he doesn't like it... I can just keep the baby secretly? Fu Yunlu pursed her lips. If he really doesn't want to be with a terrible Alpha like me, at least it will leave him with a thought, right?
