Fu Qianchen remained silent. Beneath his mask, a pair of dark eyes exuded a chilling coldness.
His gaze was firmly fixed on Lu Zhiqian, and the surrounding atmosphere dropped to freezing point, the cold air biting.
"Third Brother?"
"I'm not distrusting her. I'm just worried," Fu Qianchen said.
He jerked his chin towards Lu Zhiqian on the screen, who was wearing a somewhat aloof smile. His dark eyes were as cold as ice. "I really don't like him."
Bai Shaoting took a look and shivered. Stammering, he said, "Third Brother, I didn't dare to tell you before. Last time when the girl came to see you, to shake off the reporters, she also took his car. I don't know why, but I just can't like this Lu Zhiqian. Especially the way he looked at me that night. I actually remembered the way Fu Liangshen used to look at me when we were kids!"
Fu Qianchen squinted his eyes slightly. "How's Fu Liangshen doing now?"
Bai Shaoting scoffed. "Speaking of Fu Liangshen, I feel I overestimated him. When we were kids, he was the cruelest, like a venomous snake, always striking suddenly at the right moment and sinking his teeth in. He was so arrogant that he never put anyone in his eyes. Everyone was like an ant to him."
"I thought he'd always be like that. But unexpectedly, after that explosion, he lost his memory and became such a petty person."
"I heard from my men that he went back to the Fu family mansion some time ago. He even did such things as releasing snakes, insects, rats and ants to scare people with Zhao Yang."
"A man who used to be able to fight wolves single - handedly now only knows how to scare girls with snakes, insects, rats and ants. Tsk tsk."
Bai Shaoting shook his head and continued,
"Maybe it's because Lu Zhiqian's look is somewhat similar to that of the young Fu Liangshen. That's why he always makes me think of him. No wonder I don't like him."
Could it be that it was really because of Lu Zhiqian's look that made him think of the former Fu Liangshen and thus feel vigilant?
Fu Qianchen frowned. "Check on Fu Liangshen's current movements."
"What's there to check on him? I think since he lost his memory, he's not worth our concern at all," Bai Shaoting said. "Third Brother, don't tell me you're afraid this is all an act by Fu Liangshen?"
Fu Qianchen couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he always felt that something was off.
He looked at the little kitten in the cage. "Arrange a flight back."
After the press conference, there was a dinner.
It was originally a simple dinner, but with the presence of many media, Feng Yu found this meal extremely tiring.
Finally, it was almost over.
Feng Yu stretched and looked at Lu Zhiqian with a smile. "Thank you, Actor Lu. If it weren't for you, my head would really have been blown up by their questions."
"It's nothing," Lu Zhiqian said indifferently.
However, the agent beside them coughed repeatedly. "Don't say it's nothing. Xiaoyu, let me tell you secretly. Our Actor Lu used to be very taciturn at press conferences. This time he really broke the record by saying so much."
"Really?" Feng Yu looked at the aloof man and was even more grateful. "Actor Lu, you always help me like this. I feel so bad. I'll treat you to a meal some other day."
"Are you sure?"
Lu Zhiqian's cold eyes remained calm, but there seemed to be a hint of inquiry deep in them.
"You're not going to order something really expensive, are you? Well... I don't have much money at the moment. Can we eat something cheaper?" Feng Yu said with a big grin.
The agent almost choked.
Didn't she know how much she was worth?
Just one advertisement she took would earn a fortune. Moreover, this was an invitation from Actor Lu himself!
Why was she still talking about money!
"Don't look at me like that. I'm poor," Feng Yu shrugged and sighed helplessly. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so desperate about the one - million - yuan deal and almost agreed to Mu Shiyan's conditions.
"I like playing golf," Lu Zhiqian said.
Feng Yu forced a smile. "Sure enough, you're Actor Lu."
"Our Actor Lu is amazing, right?" the agent said with a smile.
"Your hobby is really money - burning," Feng Yu said with a forced laugh and instantly started to feel heartache.
The agent was stunned. "You..."
"There's a project there. You don't need to treat me. Just accompany me," Lu Zhiqian said.
The agent was full of questions. When did they have such an announcement? How come he didn't know?
"Ah, that's so embarrassing. I said I'd treat you. So it's settled. Bye."
Agent: "..."
Is this embarrassing?
When she got home, it was already nine o'clock. As Feng Yu walked to the door, she heard Grandma Fu ask, "You're back?"
"Sorry, Grandma. I was a bit busy today."
Grandma Fu smiled and shook her head. "I watched the press conference. Go and rest early."
"By the way,"
The old lady looked at her. Although she was smiling, her smile made Feng Yu shiver involuntarily. "Acting is acting. After all, you're a married woman. Qianchen's body hasn't even grown cold yet. Don't do anything that will make him turn in his grave."
Feng Yu nodded with a smile on her face.
But in her heart, she couldn't help but complain. It wasn't really that she was afraid her grandson would turn in his grave. It was more likely that she was afraid of bringing shame to the Fu family.
"Grandma, I know," Feng Yu said with a faint smile. "Don't worry. I'll be a good widow for Mr. Fu."
Only then did Grandma Fu nod in satisfaction.
Feng Yu was now sure.
The old lady had been keeping her here for a purpose.
She said she was lonely and pitiful living alone, but in fact, she just wanted to keep an eye on her. Maybe she had heard some rumors outside, so she was keeping such a close watch on her.
Feng Yu took a shower and lay in bed, flipping through her phone. Originally, she wanted to call Mr. Fu, but now it seemed impossible.
She could only wait until daytime.
When it was daytime for her, it was nighttime for Fu Qianchen. Their time was always off.
"Mr. Fu... What are you doing now?"
Feng Yu flipped through the photo album. There was a photo she had secretly taken before, showing him sitting on the sofa, holding a computer and working seriously.
As she looked at it, she remembered the hesitant look on Secretary Yin's face today.
Her eyebrows furrowed a little.
"Who's that girl? Is she one of your sisters?"
"You bad guy!"
Feng Yu poked the phone screen with her finger. For the first time, she disliked so much that there were so many girls around him.
"Who are you muttering and cursing at?"
A magnetic voice sounded, and then someone hugged her from behind.
Feng Yu was startled. She had been so absorbed that she hadn't even noticed someone had climbed onto her bed!
"Who!"
Feng Yu was shocked and let out a cry.
Looking back, the moonlight shone in through the window. Under the silver mask, his jawline was well - defined, and a familiar aura wafted over.
Who else could it be but Fu Qianchen?
Feng Yu's eyes instantly turned red, and her voice involuntarily choked up. "Mr. Fu?"
Fu Qianchen looked at her. His dark eyes were full of tenderness. He ruffled the girl's delicate and soft hair and nodded. "Yes."
