Chapter 22 Why Did You Hit Me?
When Kuromi fell, Shen Qianyu was especially happy and bent down to pick her up with Fu Yanci.
Instead of getting Kuromi, she ended up grabbing Fu Yanci's hand.
Fu Yanci grabbed Kuromi, but stopped the moment Shen Qianyu grabbed his hand.
Shen Qianyu realized what was happening and quickly withdrew her hand.
"I'm sorry, I..."
Fu Yanci handed Kuromi to her.
Shen Qianyu took it, overjoyed, not even noticing that the man's face turned red to the tips of his ears.
Shen Qianyu seemed to have thought of something else and said, "There's another one here, Labubu. Can you help me catch Labubu too?"
"I'll give it a try."
Fu Yan resigned from playing the claw machine game.
And just like that, Labubu came out.
Shen Qianyu looked at him in disbelief: "Why can you catch me but not me?"
"This claw machine is all about probability. If you've tried everything before and failed, it's normal that you'll succeed with me."
Shen Qianyu thought it made sense, so she stuffed the two dolls in her hands into Fu Yanci's hands, and then ran to the side to grab one.
Sure enough, they caught him in no time.
Shen Qianyu was as happy as a child.
Fu Yanci kept looking at her: "So happy?"
"Of course I'm happy. You don't know, when I was a child, everything I did revolved around Lu Xiuyuan. Every day, Lu Xiuyuan had to learn some high-end things, like horseback riding, archery, and speed skating. There was no fun in it at all for a child."
I've always wanted to experience the fun that ordinary kids have, but I've never had the chance. I remember once I was staring at a claw machine for so long that I forgot to go back with my son.
When I got home, my mom didn't see me and gave me a good scolding, saying, "If something happened to the young master and he was kidnapped, could I take responsibility?"
Shen Qianyu's words flowed freely, as if she had just opened a floodgate:
"You know what? This is my first time playing the claw machine, and the first time I've ever actually won a prize. For other people, this might be an ordinary thing, but for me, it's something I've been really looking forward to."
"I'm not talking to you anymore, I still have some coins here, I need to go catch more."
When Shen Qianyu played the claw machine, it was like she was playing for revenge. Even after she had used up a hundred coins, she would buy three more hundred coins until she really couldn't play anymore and then she would give up.
Looking at the pile of dolls she already had, Shen Qianyu was reluctant to throw them away, but if she took them home, her parents would definitely scold her again.
She didn't go to dinner with Lu Xiuyuan; they might call her any minute now, not to mention all that.
Suddenly, Shen Yue remembered something, looked up at Fu Yanci, and said, "I remember you live alone."
"right."
"Can I temporarily leave my doll with you? I'll call you when I need it, and you can send it back to me."
"Send it over?"
Fu Yanci didn't quite understand her vocabulary.
Shen Qianyu didn't offer an explanation. "Yes, is that alright? If you find it inconvenient, that's fine. I'll think of another way."
Shen Qianyu was about to take the dolls from his hands when she saw Fu Yanci put the dolls behind him.
“We worked together before, and you even asked me for a favor, so I can still do it.”
Shen Qianyu kept staring at him, then quickly smiled, "Thank you, President Fu."
Shen Qianyu saw her phone ringing; it was indeed her mother calling. She didn't answer.
When she looked up at Fu Yanci, she said with a smile, "Then I'll head back now, Mr. Fu, bye-bye."
Fu Yanci waved to her.
Shen Qianyu did not go back to her original residence, but instead found a hotel nearby.
Although she hasn't left yet, for some reason, apart from her best friend Yun Shu, she seems to have no attachment to this society or the people around her.
She turned off her phone, wanting to pretend she didn't exist in the world, so she could have some peace and quiet.
...
Fu Yanci got into the car and put the two bags full of dolls inside.
Looking at the dolls, a smile crept onto his face.
Just as I was about to call my assistant, she called me first.
“President Fu, I’ve found out what Miss Shen was doing at the government affairs hall, which you asked me to investigate. Miss Shen applied to go abroad, and from what she said, she probably won’t be coming back.”
Fu Yanci's expression changed: "You won't be coming back?"
"Yes, I don't know if it's related to the fact that President Lu and Lin Weixia have already registered their marriage."
This is something that seems like nobody knows, but those who want to know can easily find out.
Fu Yanci only knew that since Lin Weixia returned, she often went to parties behind Shen Qianyu's back, and thought that the two of them had just rekindled their old relationship. He never expected that the two of them had already registered their marriage.
"She found out?"
"I guess she knows, but what I've heard is that President Lu doesn't want her to know and has been keeping the news under wraps. But I can't figure out why Miss Shen would go abroad and not come back."
Fu Yanci thought of what Shen Qianyu had just said about sending it. Did that mean she would call him and ask him to send the doll over?
Fu Yanci remained silent, and his assistant dared not speak either, resulting in a stalemate.
After a long pause, Fu Yanci finally spoke: "Okay, that's settled then."
I hung up the phone.
...
Shen Qianyu was awakened by the knocking on the door. She glanced at the time in the room and realized it was only a little past 11 p.m.
She heard Fang Hui banging on the door repeatedly outside: "Shen Qianyu, I know you're in there, come out right now."
Shen Qianyu could tell that there were many voices outside, not just Fang Hui.
She hurriedly got out of bed and opened the door.
The moment the door was opened, a slap landed directly on her face, leaving Shen Qianyu completely stunned.
Shen Qianyu looked at her incredulously: "Mom, why did you hit me?"
"Why did I hit you? I asked you to go out to dinner with the young master, but he came back alone and you weren't there. I called you but you didn't answer, and then you just turned off your phone. Why didn't you go home? What are you trying to do? What do you mean by coming to a hotel?"
If Shen Qianyu had some communication problems with her parents before, then at this moment, she felt that this feeling had reached its peak.
She had never been this angry before: "Why do I have to go along with everything he says? I'm a person too. Even if my family is paid by his family, can't I still quit my job?"
I've already resigned from the Gu Group, so I'm essentially a free person. Am I supposed to live at home and still be subject to their control? Why should we? Are we supposed to be slaves to the Lu family for the rest of our lives…?
"Smack!"
This time it was Shen Jiacheng who slapped him, and the slap was very loud.
Shen Qianyu was shocked. She couldn't believe that her parents had actually hit her because of Lu Xiuyuan.
