Chapter 7 Resisting Fu Jing

Fu Jing and I were very different. He poured cold water on me for 15 minutes. It didn't hurt anymore. My face was numb, but fortunately, it was only a little red, and there were no blisters.

He asked his secretary to buy me some scald medicine and apply it to me personally. His fingertips were wrapped with medicine and brushed across my face. It was cold and comfortable.

"Don't get into direct conflict with her in the future."

I smiled. "You think I don't want to. She transferred to our department just to make things difficult for me. If I don't let her make things comfortable, how can she handle that temper? You hit her for me, and I think the rest of my life will be even worse."

"You blame me?" Fu Jing sounded a little cold.

I quickly shook my head. He glared at me and told me not to move. "I'm not ignorant. I can't blame you for helping me. I deserve to offend her. I thought I could be safe with you as my brother-in-law. Now that I think about it, I might be too childish."

"If you want to be safe, be strong. No one can protect you for the rest of your life." Fu Jing put down the ointment. I still have half of my face to put on.

I applied the ointment to the mirror and thought about what he said.

When I got back to the office, the people around me gave me false greetings. When I turned around, I heard their laughter and the contempt when they exchanged glances with each other on the dark computer screen.

I clenched my fists, broke my teeth, and swallowed.

For the next two days, Fu Ming still ordered me to go to her office, but he didn't ask me to go to her office alone. I had been secretly following her for two days. As soon as I got off work, I would wait near the company, wait for her car to come out, and then follow her to her place.

I thought she was blaming me for Bai Guang's death. I never thought that she had a new lover.

I took photos and videos and kept them on my phone. She played very late. After 12 o' clock, she was still hanging out at night. I couldn't wait. I was so sleepy that I went home to sleep.

I opened the door and stretched. I kicked my slippers and walked out of the way. Suddenly, I saw someone sitting on the sofa. I was so scared that I screamed.

"My god, Fu Boss, it's midnight. Can you not be scary?" I kept patting my chest to comfort myself.

"Where have you been?"

I put down my bag and poured myself a glass of water. "Are you really going to take responsibility for my guardian?"

Fu Jing's face stiffened. "I asked you where you were."

I swallowed the water in my mouth and stood up straight. "Report to Fu Boss that I went out with my friends tonight."

"Say it again."

"You checked me out?" I stared back at him.

Fu Jing grabbed my glass and threw it against the wall. "You know who Fu Ming is and you still go with her. Are you tired of living?"

I didn't want to talk to him. "You're too much of a busybody."

"Chen lai raised you with the money he earned from being a cow and a horse, not to let you ruin your life like this."

I gritted my teeth and glared at him. "So what do you want me to do? Why don't you fight back after being bullied like this? You know your sister's character better than I do. Is it useful to hide? Is it useful to rely on you?"

Fu Jing stopped talking. I realized that my attitude was too fierce. He was not the one I could refute.

"I'm sorry." I restrained my anger and apologized.

"You can do it on your own. You better do it well." Fu Jing said the next word and left with a loud bang.

I was no longer sleepy, only tired, and my heart ached from all around me, trapping me in one fell swoop. After holding it in for a few days, I finally burst into tears. I lived in this world like an independent wandering soul, helpless, but I had to live. I just wanted to live better.

The next day, my eyes were as swollen as walnuts. While I was on the subway, I was putting boiled eggs on my eyes. The boy with the schoolbag next to me stared at me for a long time. When I got off the bus, I quickly stuffed a bag of tissues into my hand.

Looking at the paper towels, I was stunned for a long time. There was nothing more touching than kindness from strangers.

I think so. As long as I keep going, I'll be fine.

As soon as I arrived at the office, someone informed me that I was late. I shook my phone. "No."

"The general manager sent a wechat message this morning saying that he would arrive at the company 20 minutes early for a meeting. Didn't you know?"

I frowned, flipped through my wechat, and farted. Why didn't I get it?!

I quickly packed my things and rushed to the conference room. When I opened the door, it was as if everyone was waiting to see me laugh. I bowed calmly and said I was sorry.

"You're 15 minutes late." Fu Ming put his arms around his shoulders and looked at me standing at the door.

I took a deep breath. "I met Fu Boss at work this morning. He asked me to buy him a cup of coffee."

"Don't use my brother against me. Do you want the whole family to know about your scandal?" Fu Ming slapped the table and got up.

"Anyway, everyone knows about your scandal." I muttered in a low voice. I can make sure she can't hear me before she dares to say that. Otherwise, she might be thrown out of the house by now.

"I left the rest of the discussion to you, manager Qian and Chen Qing. If you mess up, you don't have to stay in the Fu shi anymore." She waved her hand. "The meeting is over."

Manager Qian? Manager Qian, who was known in the circle as a pervert? What the hell is going on with me?!

I went back to the office and called manager Qian for dinner. I decided that dinner would be tonight. I could be a little more thick-skinned when dealing with people who like to put on airs, but it would be a little troublesome when dealing with people who are lecherous.

At night, I put on an ugly makeup and wrapped my chest up. If he could get down like this, I would really kneel.

"You are xiao chen." As soon as manager Qian came in, his eyes swept all over me.

I said smilingly, "Manager Qian, come on, sit down."

I could feel that he was a little confused and disgusted, but I didn't care. I talked to him about business the way we do in this line of work.

"What's the point? Come, have a drink with me." Manager Qian poured me a whole glass of white, and he only had a third of it himself.

"Manager Qian, I salute you. Do as you please." I drank a whole glass in one gulp, and he was slightly surprised, so he had to do it.

Seeing how difficult he was to drink, I was intrigued. Didn't I like to drink? I'll drink you to death.

I immediately asked the waiter for a dozen beers, two bottles of red wine, and three colors of wine. Two or three glasses, and manager Qian couldn't do it.

He grabbed me on the butt and said, "Chen, I didn't know you were a good drinker."

"Not bad, not bad." I pretended to turn around to get the wine and avoid his hand, but he suddenly pounced on me and threw me on the sofa.

His face was right in front of my eyes, and his nose was covered with black hair, which made me want to vomit...
