Starting with a cub, the superpower boss becomes the richest man by lying flat

From Chapter 179 onwards, you are no longer responsible for my affairs.
"Useless!" Lin Xin sneered, sheathed her sword with a "whoosh," and looked at Mo Zichen with mockery: "With your cowardly appearance, how dare you compete with Ziyuan for the position of heir apparent!"

"You!" Mo Zichen had been favored by Mo Qilan and Qi Shi since birth. In addition, with Mo Ziyuan as a comparison, he had always had a strong sense of superiority. Moreover, since he was old enough to understand, Qi Shi had always told him that his father would definitely find an opportunity to depose Mo Ziyuan as the heir apparent and make him the heir apparent instead. Therefore, he always believed that the position of heir apparent was his for the taking.

However, today, Lin Xin blatantly told him that he was not worthy of competing for this position. What's more, the person who said this to him was a woman of stunning beauty, and this woman also showed great protection for Mo Ziyuan.

All of this combined caused Mo Zichen to break down instantly. His eyes turned bloodshot as he glared at Mo Ziyuan, "You, you actually brought such trash to humiliate me! You, you all just wait!"

After saying that, he ignored his friends behind him and actually turned and ran away.

"Your Highness, we'll take our leave too." The person who was with Mo Zichen watched his figure disappear into the distance and awkwardly clasped his hands in a fist salute to Mo Ziyuan.

"Take care, and don't bother seeing me off," Mo Ziyuan replied with a smile.

After everyone left, he looked at Lin Xin with shining eyes and exclaimed, "Xin'er, you were so beautiful just now!"

Lin Xin rolled her eyes at him, "Are you just going to let him bully you like this? If that's the case..."

Mo Ziyuan's expression immediately changed, and he quickly covered her mouth, preventing her from finishing her sentence.

“I used to ignore them. Every time I saw him, his mother, and his sister fawning over the Duke of Dingguo in front of me, I just watched it like a show and never did anything. They thought I was jealous, so they would put on an even bigger show. Now that I have you, I naturally won’t let them keep jumping around like this.” Mo Ziyuan hurriedly explained.

"Hmph, who asked you that!" Lin Xin snorted arrogantly, feeling somewhat satisfied. She had transmigrated here to be a lazy bum and didn't want to fight with anyone. She was afraid that if she couldn't control herself, she would teach the person who was jumping around in front of her a lesson.

She was satisfied with Mo Ziyuan, but his family situation was a bit complicated. If he couldn't resolve it, she would really have to reconsider.

"Yes, Xin'er doesn't care about these things!" Hearing her say that, Mo Ziyuan knew that the situation had been resolved and breathed a sigh of relief. However, he was already planning to speed up the actions of the Duke's Mansion.

As soon as Fu Jing entered the Ten Fragrance Pavilion, Fu Qing rushed over, "Brother, Brother Ziyuan, he..."

Before she could finish speaking, Fu Jing, his face ashen, raised his hand and slapped her, knocking her head to the side and splitting her lip, from which bright red blood slowly seeped out.

Fu Qing was stunned by the slap. She covered her face and turned her head, looking at Fu Jing in disbelief, muttering, "You hit me? You actually hit me?"

Fu Jing ignored her and turned to Marquis Zhaoyang, giving him a junior's bow. "My lord, how is the heir apparent now?"

Marquis Zhaoyang's heart had long since returned to the Marquis's residence with his son, but the matters here still had to be dealt with. He looked down on the Fu family, and the only one who could barely catch his eye was Fu Jing. So, from the moment Fu Jing entered the door, he had been observing him coldly, wanting to see what he would do. When he saw him slap Fu Qing without hesitation, he knew that this cold-blooded yet clear-headed and intelligent man was satisfied with him representing the Fu family to solve the problem.

"We don't know yet." Marquis Zhaoyang's voice was cold. His beloved son had become like that, and he didn't know if it would affect his future. It was impossible for him not to hate him. Heaven knows that when he saw his son's miserable state, he felt like strangling Fu Qing.

"How does Your Excellency intend to resolve this matter?"

"As for how to resolve this," Marquis Zhaoyang pondered for a moment, "we'll have to ask my good-for-nothing son, since he's the one who got hurt." "Alright, in any case, it's an undeniable fact that the young master is injured, and our Fu family will absolutely not shirk our responsibilities."

"What should be borne..." Marquis Zhaoyang narrowed his eyes. There was something hidden in this kid's words!

"No, that's not how it is. Xiao Zheng barged into my private room without my permission, and he was rude to me. I accidentally hurt him when I resisted. You can't blame me for this!" Fu Qing wasn't stupid. She understood what Fu Jing meant. If the Zhaoyang Marquis's son was seriously injured, the Fu family wouldn't protect her. There was a high probability that they would send her to the Zhaoyang Marquis's mansion, which she didn't want.

"Shut up!" Fu Jing growled.

"No! Why should I shut up? If I don't speak, you're going to sell me off!" Fu Qing ignored the pain on her face and shouted at Fu Jing, "You useless piece of trash! You can't even stand up for your sister! All you do is apologize all day long. The Fu family will be ruined by you sooner or later! I don't want you to interfere in my affairs anymore!"

Fu Jing's injuries hadn't fully healed to begin with, and now he felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, followed by a metallic taste rising in his throat.

He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms. The stinging pain kept him barely conscious. He closed his eyes and waited for the black fog in front of him to dissipate. He swallowed the metallic taste in his mouth, then slowly opened his eyes and stared intently at Fu Qing. "Are you sure you don't need me to take care of you?"

Seeing her brother, who had never been so vulnerable, standing there swaying precariously, Fu Qing regretted her words for a moment. But when she heard Fu Jing ask her without any emotion, all her regret and guilt vanished. She straightened her neck and said loudly, "That's right, I don't need you to take care of me anymore."

Based on past experience, after she said that, Fu Jing would definitely coax her gently and agree to many of her conditions.

"This time will definitely be no exception!" Fu Qing encouraged herself, suppressing the panic that was rising in her heart.

To everyone's surprise, Fu Jing nodded decisively: "Fine, then so be it. I won't interfere with you anymore. You're on your own in everything!"

After saying this, Fu Jing clasped his hands in a fist salute to Marquis Zhaoyang: "My lord, my abilities are limited. Let bygones be bygones. As for today's matter, please discuss it with my father! Farewell!"

Looking at Fu Jing, Marquis Zhaoyang's heart stirred. He had a daughter who was of marriageable age and was the same sibling as the Marquis's heir. She was now of marriageable age, but she had been spoiled since childhood. He was afraid that she would suffer after marriage, so he had been looking for a husband for her from humble backgrounds, but he had never found a suitable one. This Fu Jing was not bad. His family background was not as good as his own, so his daughter would definitely not suffer after marrying him.

Having considered all this, Marquis Zhaoyang's attitude softened somewhat. "Then bring your father here. But there's one condition: until this matter is resolved, your sister must be under my control."

"Why should I? Brother, don't agree to him!" Fu Qing said hurriedly.

Fu Jing nodded as if he hadn't heard, saying, "I understand. Thank you for your magnanimity, Uncle. I will go back and report what happened here to my father."

"Go!"

This time, Fu Jing didn't give Fu Qing a second glance, and left with slightly unsteady but firm steps.
