"What do you think you're doing?" Xu Suying pulled Lu Weisheng's hands off her cheeks. She repeatedly rubbed away the touch, but the heat in her face wasn't fading.
"Please restrain yourself, Mr. Lu. This is considered s.e.x.u.a.l harassment." Xu Cheng stepped in front of Lu Weisheng, blocking him from getting any closer to his sister. He glowered, why does this person keep wanting to touch Susu?
Lu Weisheng immediately backed up with his innocent hands up in the air, "I-it's not like what you're thinking!"
"Then what is it?" Xu Cheng asked, hiding Xu Suying behind his back.
Xu Cheng is aware of the rumors surrounding Lu Weisheng. Lu Weisheng was the kind of man you want to hide your daughters and sisters away from. He wonders how the rumors about Yang Zheyan were so opposite of Lu Weisheng. When they were cousins and together most of the time. Even today, they were together!
"I-it's... Uh..." Lu Weisheng couldn't think fast enough to answer. He never had to deal with anyone questioning his actions or intentions. Who will dare question him? They will only end up offending the second young master of the Lu family.
Except, he really did end up pinching Xu Suying's cheeks. On top of it, he didn't have an answer to why he pinched a random person's cheeks. He couldn't even believe he did it! He thought he did it to the nice Xu Suying, and not the one that was going to devour him. But he was sure those Xu siblings will never believe him.
It was apparent the Xu siblings weren't afraid of him or his family. Lu Weisheng did his research on his future sister-in-law, and the people around her to be in her good grace. Though he was sure that was no longer the case after claiming he was Yang Zheyan.
Xiong Jingfei and the Xu family were extremely close. Closer than she was to her own family. So he doesn't dare to say or do anything to offend them. Even with the hostility, they were giving him.
If he falls out of Xiong Jingfei's good grace for good. Then he will end up battling Yang Zheyan and Xiong Jingfei together... Without Yang Zheyan having to say it, Lu Weisheng can tell he was infatuated by her. Lu Weisheng might end up being on the winning side for once if he has Xiong Jingfei's help.
"She talked!"
All three of them in the middle of an integration war turned around to face Zhao Fan. Her pitiful face was still on in full action, but her eyes gave her away. Full of rage and revenge. All of them were ignoring her, not just once or twice! Since they were fighting about Xiong Jingfei, she will reveal what a fake she has been. Trying to get others to pity her by being a mute all these years.
"What did you say?" Feng Huan being the quietest one, was the first to ask. "Who did you say that talked?"
All four of them waited for the answer from Zhao Fan. Even though they knew who she was referring to. Out of everyone they knew, there was only one person they were close to that cannot talk.
Zhao Fan didn't turn around to face Feng Huan, who asked the question. Instead, she stared right at Lu Weisheng, "It was Xiong Jingfei. S-she actually talked!"
Xu Suying was baffled by Zhao Fan's ridiculous claim. Really? The Feifei she has been with from the day she lost her voice until now, talked? In a condescending tone, she said, "If you want to make up a lie about Feifei, couldn't you be more clever about it?"
Zhao Fan gritted her teeth and growled, "I'm not lying! She really talked!"
Even the composed Xu Cheng burst out with muffled laughs. Xiong Jingfei, who hasn't talked in the last five years, used her first few words for Zhao Fan? How absurd! If that was true, would Xiong Jingfei bother preparing extra papers just so she can communicate with him this morning? He was her lawyer, so lying to him would not be an advantage.
Seeing both the Xu siblings laughing at her, Zhao Fan shouted again, "I'm not lying this time!"
Feng Huan sighed and closed his eyes. Zhao Fan honestly gave him a little hope that Xiong Jingfei's voice did return. Opening his eyes, he coldly said, "Zhao Fan, are you done making a fool out of yourself?"
Zhao Fan grabbed Feng Huan's arm and cried, "Huan, how can you not believe me? I never ever lied to you!"
Feng Huan pulled his arm away from her. He rubbed his forehead. Today, so many things happened, and he was so tired of her. He also got a chance to see how quickly Zhao Fan changed when seeing someone with more power. How can he believe in someone like that?
Zhao Fan almost fell down when Feng Huan tore his arm out of her grip. She looked at him and at Xu Cheng, who was there when it happened. Did they really not hear Xiong Jingfei? Why are they looking at her like she is a liar and a person who has gone mad? She wasn't crazy! She heard her!
Lu Weisheng really wanted to escape this situation. He cursed Yang Zheyan for leaving without taking him along. Ahhh, he will leave it to fate to deal with this! So with this in mind, he turned away and walked. Somewhat running at the same time.
Except, a loud clatter of heels clicking on the floor chased after him. Zhao Fan grabbed his arm, "Master Lu Weisheng, I am not lying! I really am not lying!"
Lu Weisheng has seen different types of methods in an attempt to capture his heart, but that will never work. So those women will try to catch his attention a second time, but that definitely never worked. He has yet to see one like Zhao Fan. She was new... Sprouting ridiculous things about someone he did a thorough background check on. It was meant for Yang Zheyan, but her becoming mute with no explanation got his attention too.
He smoothly shook off Zhao Fan's ironed grip. Hah, she was still a novice at trying to hold him down. Using the voice when he was breaking up with someone. He said, "Miss Zhao, maybe you should go get your head check? You might have hit the rail too hard during the filming-"
"I said I'm not lying! How many times must I say it for you to believe me?" Zhao Fan screamed, cutting off Lu Weisheng in mid-sentence. Instantly recalling who she was yelling at, she tried controlling herself. "I-I... I apologize for lashing out at you."
Zhao Fan flipped around and pointed at the spot where Xiong Jingfei held her neck hostage, "Right there, she said..."
Xu Suying rolled her eyes and let out an annoyed sigh. How much longer will she have to wait for Zhao Fan's scene to be over? If Zhao Fan makes her wait any longer, she might end up putting Zhao Fan's neck against the rail again.
Xu Cheng stepped up, "What did Feifei say?"
Lu Weisheng's jaw dropped slightly. Why isn't Zheyan here! He would love to see if he would kick Xu Cheng for saying Xiong Jingfei's nickname.
Zhao Fan holds a track record for having a series of lies! Xu Suying stared up at her brother, "You believe her?"
"She said t-that I am always lying..." Zhao Fan repeated exactly what Xiong Jingfei said.
She indeed lied about never bothering Xiong Jingfei ever again. However, she did keep her distance for the last five years. They didn't bump into each other until the Guiying Hui museum trip. If it wasn't for that, they probably wouldn't even realize they went to the same University.
However, in truth, Zhao Fan kept her distance from Xiong Jingfei for Feng Huan. So he won't be reminded of her. For the past years they've been together, he will sometimes mistakenly call her that wretched name.
Xu Suying burst out laughing, "If Feifei really said that, then she isn't wrong."
Feng Huan shook his head, in replacement of laughing at Zhao Fan's claim. The first words Xiong Jingfei spoke in years was that Zhao Fan was a liar? Zhao Fan could have said something to make it sound more credible.
Zhao Fan wanted to throw her heels at all three of them. They did not believe her and laughed at her! In embarrassment, she dug her nail into her palm, "I'm not lying, seriously! She really did talk... I heard her with my own two ears. Master Lu Weisheng, you believe me, don't you?"
"Hmm?" Lu Weisheng blinked. He actually lost interest in what Zhao Fan had to say when Xu Suying laughed. It was just like the nice Xu Suying he saw at the valley of peach blossom trees.
"Mr. Lu, can you take me to see Feifei now? I believe we wasted enough time with this." Xu Suying flipped her hair and walked away.
Even with Zhao Fan screaming or crying that she wasn't lying. All four of them closed their eyes and turned their ears deaf. When they should have listened to her when they labeled her crazy.
"Well, well... Zhao Fan, I am interested in what you're going to do next." A man in a black cap on the opposite side of the rail smirked. Sipping on the last bit of his soda, "It won't be long now until we meet again, Feifei."
