The more Old Master Fu thought about it, the angrier he got. He wished he could pick up the ferule and smack him again.
“Grandpa, I really know my mistake.” Fu Yuxiu knelt in front of him. His back was aching so much that it felt numb, and even his legs were cramping and trembling.
“I’m already going easy by only hitting you twice. Our Fu family’s reputation is only secondary. But what you destroyed was Wanwan’s reputation, you bastard!” Old Master Fu sighed repeatedly.
“When you two got engaged, it was only because your grandmother wasn’t in good health that we didn’t kick up a fuss. Otherwise, who knows what kind of mess would have happened by now.”
The news spread the quickest in Yuncheng, and only the people in the capital’s upper social circles knew about it. But thanks to the Fu family, they didn’t dare to discuss this matter publicly.
“What is the most important thing for a girl? You can treasure the person you like, but you can’t hurt others!
“That girl couldn’t wait for Wanwan’s reputation to be destroyed, yet you still chose to help the wicked.”
“Grandpa, Fengya…” Fu Yuxiu was beaten into a daze and didn’t hear what Old Master Fu said exactly. But after hearing Jiang Fengya’s name, he couldn’t help opening his mouth to defend her.
But when he met Old Master Fu’s icy cold gaze, he shrank back in fear.
“Wanwan is only so old. The two of you ganged up to bully her and even went to the atelier to cause trouble. Yet you still dare to talk back?”
Song Fengwan’s heart skipped a beat, and her nose scrunched up. Even after all this time, she still carefully chose her words when talking to her mother on the phone. There were some things that she couldn’t confide in with anyone.
She didn’t expect that after only meeting Old Master Fu twice, he would protect her unconditionally.
Fu Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at her, his eyes dark.
“Dad, Mom, it’s getting late. She still has to study when she gets back.” Fu Chen gave a timely reminder.
“My old brain, I almost forgot that Wanwan still has to study.” Old Madam Fu smiled. “I’ll go to the kitchen to fix something up for you two to eat. If you’re hungry, you can eat it for supper…”
***
Jiang Fengya had already arrived at the hotel she had booked online. She knew that Fu Yuxiu was short of money recently, so she had booked the hotel herself. The hotel was from a national chain, so it wasn’t bad.
She had barely arrived at the front desk to check in when she heard someone call her from behind.
“Miss Jiang.”
She subconsciously turned around and saw a woman walking toward her. This woman was wearing a skirt suit with a pair of high heels more than ten centimeters high. She had shoulder-length hair and was wrapped in a black trench coat. She looked capable and charming.
There was no one else around. Jiang Fengya frowned and asked cautiously, “Are you looking for me?”
“Is it convenient for us to talk in private?”
“I’m sorry, I…” Jiang Fengya instinctively rejected her. She didn’t know the person in front of her, but based on how she carried herself and her clothes, she knew that she couldn’t afford to offend her.
“Don’t be afraid. I mean no harm.” Cheng Lan sized her up.
Everyone from the Fu Family was good-looking, and Fu Yuxiu didn’t seem stupid. But he didn’t have good taste. This woman looked petty and wore shabby clothes. Wasn’t he embarrassed to bring her out?
“It’s about Song Fengwan and the Fu family. Are you not interested at all?” Cheng Lan tempted her.
Jiang Fengya hesitated for a moment before shaking her head. “I really have something to do.”
Cheng Lan didn’t mind. She took out a business card from her pocket and handed it to her. “I’m not your enemy. If you’re ever in trouble, you can always look for me.”
Jiang Fengya hesitated but still accepted the business card. Chief editor of a newspaper?
Jiang Fengya wasn’t stupid. This woman wouldn’t have suddenly sought her out and offered her goodwill without any ulterior motives. She must have something she wanted. But before Jiang Fengya could figure out her motive, she didn’t dare to approach her rashly.
After putting away the business card, she took the room card and went to her room.

Fu Chen and Song Fengwan were already sitting in the car and on their way home.
Song Fengwan didn’t know which part of Old Master Fu’s words had stirred her up, but her eyes were slightly red, and she seemed about to cry. Upon seeing this, Fu Chen suggested returning home. Along the way, he tried to comfort her, but he didn’t know what to say.
Fu Xinhan squatted down and didn’t dare to get close to Fu Chen. He curled up at Song Fengwan’s feet and rubbed against them.
“You can’t run like that next time. You scared me to death!” Song Fengwan bent down and helped smooth his fur.
Fu Xinhan felt more comfortable after being caressed and became braver. He placed his front legs on her knees and subconsciously wanted to lick her to express his goodwill. Just as he stuck his tongue out, he saw Fu Chen’s cold gaze from the corner of his eye and was so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew and closed his mouth tight.
Shi Fang was sitting in the front passenger seat during the return trip and had always been observing the back.
Fu Xinhan is such a pervert. Third Master hasn’t even kissed Miss Song’s face before, but you want to kiss her on the lips?
Aren’t you afraid that Third Master will break your puppy legs?
“Fu Xinhan has many ex-girlfriends in the compound?” Song Fengwan tilted her head and looked at Fu Chen.
“He left his tracks everywhere.”
“I couldn’t tell that you were a flirtatious dog. You’re not even a year old, and you already know so much?” Song Fengwan had never had a pet before, so she naturally knew very little about this.
“When he was five months old, he acted dirty on my friend’s leg. The guy was scared breathless.”
Fu Chen spoke vaguely, but an image formed in Song Fengwan’s mind, and she couldn’t help blushing. “Then your friend is really unlucky.”
“He gave me the dog, so he should be closer to him, right?”
A certain man climbing a snowy mountain sneezed several times in a row. F*ck, who’s talking about me behind my back? Damn it. Why isn’t there any signal in this stupid place?
After arriving at Yunjin Prime Manor, Song Fengwan reluctantly said, “Third Master, later…”
She had more time on her hands today and wanted to finish the sketch early.
Fu Chen raised his eyebrows. “Drawing?”
“I might take up a lot of your time tonight.”
“Let’s get to it straight away,” Fu Chen said while walking to the second floor. Song Fengwan hurriedly followed.
When they arrived at the art studio room, it was just the two of them. Song Fengwan was engrossed in preparing her drawing tools when she saw from the corner of her eye Fu Chen reaching to unbutton the top two buttons of his shirt, revealing his collarbone.
His posture was slow and elegant.
Suddenly meeting his gaze, Song Fengwan hurriedly lowered her head and rubbed her charcoal pencil.
Fu Chen’s lips curled into a faint smile.
Song Fengwan was caught peeping, so she lowered her head guiltily to prepare her things. She didn’t notice that a certain someone had already walked behind her and bent down, leaning close to her. “The drawing is alright.”
His scorching breath trailed down her earlobe, burning her exposed neck to a crimson shade.
She instinctively shrank to the side, and Fu Chen’s lips curved.
How sensitive.
“I’ll go get a book. You can continue to prepare.” Fu Chen got up and walked out. His Adam’s apple bopped up and down, and his throat felt itchy.
If he didn’t leave…
… he might really be tempted to bite her.
***
Fu Chen had just taken a copy of the ‘Heart Cleansing Incantation’ from his study when Shi Fang walked over. “Third Master, Cheng Lan met Jiang Fengya.”
His expression was the same as usual as he nodded lightly.
Seeing him not speaking, Shi Fang retreated tactfully. He had followed Fu Chen for a long time and knew him well. He was devious and protective of his people.
He was already very unhappy when Cheng Lan had gone to find Song Fengwan previously, but he ended up not doing anything. Shi Fang reckoned that…
Fu Chen was holding back to make a big move in the future!
The more Old Master Fu thought about it, the angrier he got. He wished he could pick up the ferule and smack him again.
