The drunken man refused to let it go.
A hint of doubt welled up in Feng Yu's heart. Although she could understand the pain of losing a daughter, for some reason, she always felt that this man was extremely money - hungry.
"Don't waste your breath on him. This guy is obviously a good - for - nothing who gambles and drinks. You just happened to stumble upon this. If you don't agree to his demands, pay the money and sign a settlement agreement, I'm afraid this matter won't be resolved," Mu Shiyan said indifferently.
Feng Yu knew it too.
But where could she find a million yuan in such a short time? She might be able to in three months, but not now...
"Have something to eat. I can figure out a way to get you the million. Although the Mu family has been in a mess because of you, I still have some resources under my name. There's still one company left. It's not as good as before, but with some effort, I can still get the million for you."
Mu Shiyan brought a bowl of wontons in front of her.
But Feng Yu had absolutely no appetite.
The last thing she wanted was to be involved with Mu Shiyan, let alone use his money.
"I know you don't want to use my money. Don't worry, I'm not giving it to you for free," Mu Shiyan said with a cold curl of his lips. There was also calculation in his eyes. "Since you have the status of the third young mistress of the Fu family, you can also help me. I want you to choose me in the future. Choose my company. I want you to marry me when the time is right."
Feng Yu raised her eyebrows. "Young Master Mu, when did your goals become so small? Weren't you aiming to be the king of Beishi? Now you're relying on me. Weren't you always extremely averse to my status as a widow? So, aren't you afraid of being laughed at now?"
"My dignity has already been trampled to pieces by you. Heh, I've said before that if I can't live well, I won't let you live well either. You can sneer all you want. If it weren't for me, I'd like to see who would be so generous as to give you a million just like that. Oh, right, you have a little boy toy. Why, can't you get through to his phone?" Mu Shiyan said coldly.
Feng Yu clenched her fists. She couldn't even force a fake smile.
She stared at him coldly and said, "My business doesn't concern you. Young Master Mu should take care of yourself. I really don't know whether to say you're kicking someone when they're down or taking advantage of the situation. If you were born in ancient times, you'd either be a bandit or a robber. You can eat this bowl of wontons by yourself. I'm afraid that after eating your food, you'll tell me that this bowl of wontons costs a million too."
Feng Yu got up and was about to leave.
Mu Shiyan grabbed her wrist tightly. His deep black eyes seemed to be tinged with blood.
"Where are you going? Who else are you going to beg? Look clearly, you're just a widow. No one will want you except me! A dirty second - hand good!"
Feng Yu pried his hand off, her eyes cold. Just as she was about to leave, she stopped, took out a hundred - yuan bill from her bag and slapped it into Mu Shiyan's palm. "This is for the taxi fare and your trouble. I'll transfer the rest of the medical expenses to your card."
Mu Shiyan ruthlessly crumpled the hundred - yuan bill in his hand and stared at the woman with backbone.
Love and hate intertwined...
Feng Yu walked out onto the balcony. The cold wind blew as she dialed Fu Geyue's number, but his phone was turned off.
She didn't know many people and had few friends.
There was no one among those she knew who could lend her such a large sum of money at once.
Among all the people she knew, the only one with the ability left was him.
Feng Yu rubbed her arms and stared at the phone screen. Could it be that she really had to use her hacking skills to do something illegal and steal a million yuan now?
No.
She couldn't do it.
If she used her skills for such things, she would despise herself.
Just as she was deep in thought, the phone rang. It was Bai Shaoting calling.
She steadied her emotions and answered. "Uncle, what's up?"
"I'm saying, little girl, where are you wandering around? I'm at the Fu family's place. Where are you? Lao Li said you haven't come back yet," Bai Shaoting said.
Feng Yu paused for a moment. She had forgotten that she was supposed to go back to the Fu family after parting ways with Bai Shaoting.
She didn't expect that Bai Shaoting would be waiting for her at the Fu family's villa.
"Uncle..." Feng Yu's voice was a bit choked. "Can you lend me a million? I promise I'll pay you back with interest in three months. I can even pay you three million."
Bai Shaoting was silent for a while.
Feng Yu also knew that she might have gone too far.
Anyway, she didn't have much of a relationship with Fu Qianchen's brother. There was no reason for him to lend her the money.
After all, even Fu Qianchen didn't respond to her anymore.
"Are you in some trouble? Why do you suddenly want to borrow money from me?"
"No... It's nothing. Bye." Feng Yu hung up the phone.
Her mood was extremely complicated.
She was just panicking.
Yes.
Why would she suddenly ask Bai Shaoting for money? Why would he lend it to her?
Bai Shaoting held his own phone in one hand and Fu Qianchen's phone in the other. He was extremely troubled.
Damn it.
Could something have happened to her?
In order not to let the people there notice the situation here, the third brother had given his phone to him when he went abroad.
It was as if the third brother had foreseen something. He had told him not to answer the calls but just simply reply to Feng Yu to avoid making her suspicious until he came back.
So, he had been the one replying these days.
How could he pretend to be the third brother?
The third brother was always so cold. He had tried his best to imitate him, but there was nothing he could do if the little girl was still suspicious.
"Brother Muli, answer the phone. What are you doing!" Bai Shaoting was extremely troubled.
He wasn't a hacking genius. He didn't know why Brother Muli, the only one with resources, had his phone turned off.
The little girl was a person with backbone. She always carried things on her own.
Now that she was asking him for money, something must have happened.
The third brother had said to contact him in case of an emergency.
Did this count as an emergency?
Bai Shaoting quickly called a landline with his own phone. "Tell the third brother to find a way to come back. His woman is in trouble!"
Feng Yu hung up the phone and stood in the cold wind. Her heart just couldn't calm down.
She walked on the road alone.
Mu Shiyan was watching from not far away. Soon, he received a call. "What's the situation?"
"Shiyan, what's your relationship with this girl? She's so unlucky. She just had to run into this deadbeat. I heard from the neighbors that this man has always had a violent tendency. He beat his wife away and then spent all day drinking and beating his daughter. He's also a gambler.
Moreover, he has tried more than once to get sky - high compensation by making his daughter stage an accident.
It's strange. Usually, he only targeted drunk drivers at night.
I don't know why he was so adventurous this time. My uncle works in the traffic bureau. I asked him to help me check, and it turns out he really has some tricks.
This accident was caused by himself.
I think it's because the loan sharks came to collect the debt. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come up with this idea.
Moreover, it seems that he was specifically targeting the third young mistress of the Fu family."
His friend's words gave Mu Shiyan some ideas. He wasn't quite sure. He gave Feng Yu a meaningful look.
Although Feng Qingsheng was brainless, she wasn't capable of such elaborate schemes.
Who else wanted her dead so badly?
