Grandma Fu showed no mercy at all. "You've been spreading rumors wantonly and ruining the reputation of our Fu family..."
There was a hint of coldness in her eyes. She turned to the bodyguards behind her and scolded, "What are you waiting for? Take her away!"
Grandma Fu didn't give her any chance to speak.
Immediately, a burly man walked up to Xu Tong.
Xu Tong grabbed his leg and pleaded, "No, no! Please plead for me. I don't want to be taken away like this!"
If she left like this, that man would never forgive her!
The steward's eyes showed a hint of disgust. "You've violated the basic ethics of our profession. You've lost your chance. Take her away."
At the order, the other bodyguards walked straight up to Xu Tong, picked her up, and carried her out.
Xu Tong glanced at Feng Yu. Seeing Feng Yu watching the show leisurely, her eyes were filled with hatred!
It was all her doing! She had pretended to be in a coma on purpose to lure her into the trap. She had used Fu Liangshen as a guise on purpose to make her say all this in front of Grandma Fu...
It had made her lose everything!
However, she had forgotten that if they hadn't been so overbearing, Feng Yu wouldn't have used herself as bait.
Xu Tong was taken away.
Feng Yu looked at Grandma Fu.
Grandma Fu looked extremely angry. It was hard to tell whether she was angry because she had never known that the person by her side was actually someone else's spy.
Or because she had almost been harmed.
After all, she was still the granddaughter - in - law of the Fu family. If the news that she had been harmed got out, it would surely make the Fu family lose face.
Maybe it was both.
"It's all my fault. I'm such an old fool, so muddle - headed that I hired such a person. My dear, you've been wronged." Grandma Fu patted her hand, looking heart - broken.
Feng Yu was indifferent.
Grandma Fu had arranged such a person for her just to keep an eye on her.
It was just that now that it had been exposed, Grandma Fu was losing face.
Feng Yu forced a consoling smile, then supported Grandma Fu and pretended to go along with her.
"Grandma, don't be so angry. Don't hurt your body."
"I'm just an old woman. I actually believed the slander of others and misunderstood you, my dear." Grandma Fu said to her in a guilty tone. "Who are these people around me? They're like wolves and tigers!"
"It's okay."
Feng Yu hugged her and smiled. "Grandma, there's something I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"What is it?" Grandma Fu asked.
Feng Yu said with a smile, "If you could attend a press conference with me, the rumors outside would surely be self - defeated!"
"Attend a press conference together?" Grandma Fu repeated.
Feng Yu nodded and added, "If we, the mother - in - law and daughter - in - law, can show a harmonious relationship on Weibo, won't these rumors be easily solved?"
Feng Yu spoke innocently and kindly.
But Grandma Fu had other thoughts.
If she cooperated with Feng Yu in this play, the Fu family would gain a good reputation. Moreover, they could take advantage of the popularity of this incident to give the Fu Corporation's stock a chance to rise!
Grandma Fu said with a smile, "Since you hope I'll cooperate, I'll surely agree to my dear's request."
She paused for a moment and then asked, "But should I assign another bodyguard to you? You're out there alone..."
Sure enough!
This old woman still didn't give up on monitoring her.
One Xu Tong was gone, and now she wanted to send another one?
Feng Yu suddenly lowered her head sadly, biting her lower lip. Her face turned deathly pale. "Grandma."
"If you hadn't come just in time, I was so scared that she might have attacked me. Can I not have a bodyguard? I can protect myself."
She cried so pitifully, as if she had really been greatly frightened. "Just thinking that the person who had been guarding me 24/7 was the one who wanted to harm me makes me unable to eat or sleep well. If others ask me..."
Grandma Fu frowned.
A strange look flashed across her face but disappeared quickly.
"Okay, okay. No more bodyguards, no more." Grandma Fu patted her shoulder kindly.
This girl was suspicious. It would be hard to monitor her from now on.
She had to think of another way.
"Okay, thank you, Grandma."
Feng Yu looked at Grandma Fu with a smile.
...
At the press conference.
Feng Yu and Grandma Fu held a press conference in Qin City that night.
Feng Yu attended in her hospital gown together with Grandma Fu.
"Regarding the recent events, I'd like to explain them together with my grandma."
Feng Yu smiled at Grandma Fu and suddenly took her hand.
"Since I'm already a daughter - in - law of the Fu family, I won't have any other thoughts. As for Actor Lu and me, we've had a cooperation before, so we're just good friends in the workplace."
As soon as Feng Yu finished speaking, a reporter asked sharply.
"Then may I ask, what's your relationship with Mr. Qiu, the richest man? There are rumors that your relationship is more than just ordinary friends?"
Feng Yu looked at this reporter, as if she had already guessed this question.
She answered unhurriedly, "Speaking of Mr. Qiu, I only realized that I'm quite familiar with Mrs. Qiu after Mr. Qiu announced that he had a wife last time."
Of course she was familiar! Mrs. Qiu was herself. How could she not be familiar with herself?
The reporters below gasped in surprise!
"Since that's the case, is Mrs. Qiu also someone in the entertainment circle?" the reporter continued to press.
Feng Yu scratched the back of her head. "Isn't this my press conference? Why are you all inquiring about Mrs. Qiu?"
Feng Yu looked at Grandma Fu, as if asking for her opinion.
Grandma Fu nodded.
Only then did Feng Yu say domineeringly, "Although my husband and I haven't had the chance to show our love publicly, since I've become his wife, I'll never betray my husband. I won't tolerate any other man in my eyes."
Feng Yu smiled sweetly. "I hope the public will respect me. Don't just accuse me casually because I'm a widow and make me carry so many unjust accusations."
The reporters were stunned.
Her beautiful eyes were filled with seriousness and determination. She looked so upright that it was hard to tell she was acting.
Moreover, she was wearing a hospital gown, and her face was a bit pale. But she still managed to sit here with Grandma Fu, accepting the interviews from the public...
How much courage and responsibility did she have to have?
If things went wrong, she would lose everything.
Grandma Fu held her hand and looked at her lovingly.
"Don't worry, my dear. If there are any more people who slander you outside in the future, our Fu family's legal team will never let them go. No one will ever bully you again."
"Thank you, Grandma." Feng Yu hugged Grandma Fu.
The two got along very harmoniously.
If Feng Yu had really had an affair, would Grandma Fu still protect her like this?
The answer was no!
Suddenly, the screen behind the press - conference stage lit up.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the screen.
"Hello everyone. I'm Zhou Xi. I'm now in the police station. I've thought about it for a long time and decided to make my crimes public and return the innocence to the innocent."
In the video, Zhou Xi looked extremely ugly. She had already changed into prison clothes, and her eyes were full of guilt.
"Regarding the affair rumor, actually I was the one who masterminded it. I deliberately spread these rumors, which made Miss Feng Yu be scolded by everyone. Moreover, it was also me who made Miss Feng Yu fall down the stairs..."
"I'm sorry, Miss Feng Yu. I'm so sorry. After that, I even wanted to kill her to cover up my tracks. I've done so many wrong things. I know I'll be punished."
"The only thing I can do to make up for it is to return the innocence to Miss Feng Yu. She's innocent. In the show, although she and Actor Lu knew each other, their behavior was proper and they didn't cross the line. That scene was just an effect created by a false shot."
"Blame me if you have to. It's all my fault! I'm willing to pay all the price!"
