Spoiled Sparrow

Old Master Fu's threatening tone is now out in the open.

As he came out of the old house, Chen Mi quickly greeted him.

In the back seat of the Maybach, Fu Chen loosened his tie, the wound on his back throbbing slightly.

"How's the preparation for Yuanhe's project going? Hurry up, the old man can't wait any longer."

Chen Yan: "President Fu, rest assured, everything is proceeding steadily and there are no abnormalities."

Yuanhe is a company founded by Fu Chen after breaking away from the control of the Fu family. He always understood that he could only ever be a sharp sword in the Fu family, and that the final controlling stake and decision-making power were firmly in the hands of the old man.

To have a voice, you must have strength.

For the past two years, he has been independently making moves, privately acquiring scattered shares, and the details of his various overseas investments and assets are unknown to anyone.

What he wanted to do was never to openly confront the Fu family, but to quietly take control of everything in the Fu family.

He wants both the Fu family and Ruan Qing.

Fu Chen raised his eyes: "We will maintain a unified narrative and fully cooperate with the marriage alliance with the Zhao family."

"Yes, Mr. Fu."

Fu Chen looked up, his mind filled with Ruan Qing's face.

Wait for me a little longer.

I will give you a home.

In the hospital on the other side, Ruan Qing, who had been unconscious for more than ten hours, trembled her eyelashes and slowly opened her eyes.

Hearing the noise, He Xunnan immediately looked up and walked closer, his eyes filled with undisguised tenderness.

"woke up?"

Ruan Qing was initially surprised to see him, but after a moment, she remembered what had happened. She looked around and asked, "Mr. He, what are you doing here?"

"You didn't see him, you saw me. Surprised?"

He Xun Nan got up, picked up the warm water that had been cooled down and handed it to her: "Don't call me President He anymore, just call me Brother Xun Nan."

The water glass was already handed to her. Ruan Qing hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it, but accidentally touched his fingers and hurriedly withdrew her hand.

Ruan Qing felt very uncomfortable looking at him, so she simply lowered her head.

My mind is a complete blank. How could He Xun Nan, such a sensible person, have changed so much overnight...?

She held the water glass in both hands, took a small sip, and asked somewhat tentatively, "Where's Youyou? I haven't seen her."

"Don't worry, she's fine. She woke up earlier than you and had her assistant take her to eat."

As He Xunnan spoke, his eyes never left her.

Ruan Qing felt really uncomfortable being stared at, especially since there were only the two of them in the ward, making the atmosphere somewhat awkward.

Fortunately, someone rushed into the ward in a hurry, breaking the atmosphere.

Before you see him, you hear his voice.

"Good heavens, why are you in the hospital every other day? I never see you anywhere else!" Lin Yun'en rushed in carrying bags of supplements. "Do you even know what's going on?!"

Ruan Qing immediately relaxed, her tone becoming lighter: "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? Who made you angry?"

Lin Yun'en glanced at He Xun'nan, her eyes clearly telling him to leave and not disturb their conversation.

He paused for a moment, then pushed open the door and went out.

Lin Yun'en put down the tonic she was holding: "I have something to tell you, so calm down and don't get agitated."

After she finished speaking, she took several deep breaths.

This made Ruan Qing laugh out loud: "You tell me."

"That scumbag Fu Chen is having his engagement party with Zhao Xiyao tomorrow."

Lin Yun'en gritted her teeth: "My grandfather has already received the invitation from his grandfather."

He took it out of his bag and handed it to Ruan Qing, "Look."

Ruan Qing didn't even glance at it, and replied indifferently, "Mm."

Just a simple "hmm".

Lin Yun'en was confused. She touched Ruan Qing's forehead. She didn't have a fever, so why was there no reaction at all?

"Bao'er, aren't you sad?" Lin Yun'en sat anxiously on the edge of her bed. "Fu Chen is getting engaged! You're clearly his girlfriend!"

Ruan Qing looked up at her, her expression calm, and she even smiled.

There was no resentment or bitterness in that smile, only complete relief.

"I don't care anymore, do you believe me?"

Fu Chen risked his life to save him; that's enough.

There's no debt between them, and as for the rest... well, let's just say they were destined to be apart.

Lin Yun'en didn't believe Ruan Qing's words at all. If her best friend said she didn't love him anymore, could it really be that she didn't love him anymore? It meant she really had no other choice.

Ruan Qing didn't shed a single tear; instead, she reached out and hugged her to comfort her.

Lin Yun-en: "Okay, goodbye then, the next one will be even better."

He's getting on in years, and besides being rich, powerful, and handsome, he has no other redeeming qualities. I'll find you a young, handsome puppy-like guy to make him jealous.

Ruan Qing was amused by her, but her smile froze on her face.

When Lin Yun'en went out to call the nurse to change her dressing, she picked up her phone and sent two text messages to Fu Chen.

Let's break up.

I will not be a mistress.

After clicking send, I immediately turned off my phone.

A sudden wave of panic washed over me, and my mind raced with wild thoughts: What would his reaction be?

Those happy moments from the past flooded her mind uncontrollably, trying to overturn her reason.

She closed her eyes, telling herself to resist these fleeting temptations.

At that moment, her phone suddenly vibrated, and she slowly took a deep breath to prepare for the trial.

I mustered up the courage to swipe open the screen, only to find it was a message from Feng Xiao.

[Gummy candy, to celebrate your phoenix-like rebirth, I'm treating you to dinner tonight and throwing you a party. Buy and eat whatever you want, as an apology.]

It was followed by a cat emoji that said "Please, please".

Her tense heart suddenly softened.

"Sure, can I bring a friend?"

No problem, any amount is fine!

The noisy crowd, the deafening music, and the intoxicating alcohol might just be able to mask the turbulent emotions churning within her.

As long as she is busy enough, those memories of Fu Chen will not have a chance to creep in and take control of her mind.

The private room was filled with dazzling lights and shadows. Ruan Qing was dressed very warmly to cover her injuries.

Feng Xiao joked, "Hey, why is today's main character dressed like... a primary school student?"

Looking at his shameless behavior, Ruan Qing already saw him as the chubby boy from before. "Drink more, talk less."

Feng Xiao introduced her to the people around him, but after walking around for a while, she was exhausted and sat alone in the corner of the sofa, drinking alone.

One glass of wine after another numbed my chaotic thoughts, leaving my mind blank.

Let alone Fu Chen, she now hesitates for two seconds even about who she is.

Lin Yun'en watched her for a full half hour, feeling extremely distressed.

She used to be controlled by Fu Chen, and every time he took her out to play, they had to do it secretly. Now she could finally be unrestrained, so she picked up her phone to prepare a surprise for him.

A few minutes later, the door to the private room was gently pushed open.

A row of male models, all over 183cm tall and with outstanding looks, walked in neatly and orderly.

They all looked like idols, wearing tight-fitting suits that accentuated their figures, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

The noisy place suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on them.

Some people have raised the following questions:

"What's going on?"

"Brother Feng, did you arrange this?"

"So handsome~"

Feng Xiao looked puzzled; it was clearly not his arrangement.

A few seconds later, Lin Yun'en stood up, pointed at Ruan Qing, and said, "I ordered it! Bring it all over!"

She laid out a stack of cash: "Today, the eight of you are here specifically to entertain this Miss Ruan. Whoever can make her happy will get this."
