Fu Ziya said: My master is resting right now, Little Wei, what business do you have with him?
I smiled and said, "It's just a matter of business, but it's not important, so it doesn't matter. I can call him next time."
Fu Ziya thoughtfully made an "oh" sound on the phone. After a while, a child's cry seemed to come from the other end of the phone, I then immediately said: "Cheng Ya, take care of the child first. How about we eat together in a few days?"
She smiled into the phone and said, "Of course."
I said, "Okay, then."
After we hung up the phone, our hearts still had not calmed down. I didn't think that Fu Ziya would actually be the one to answer the call, and didn't know if she could hear what I had just said, but her tone of voice did not have the usual warmth towards me, that's for sure.
Did she know something? But just as this thought surfaced in my mind, I subconsciously rejected this idea. Fu Ziya should not be such a smart person, she was simple and did not think much into it.
I didn't want to think about it any further, so I set the phone aside for the time being.
After almost two hours, Yu Jin called back. He didn't know if it was Fu Ziya who told him or if it was him who looked at the call log, but he asked: "Did you call me?"
I asked directly, "When are you going to talk to me about the Water Paradise project?"
Yu Jin's tone was still flat as he said: "I've been very busy these past few days."
I stressed, "You are very busy, shouldn't you also talk about first come first served? I've come to Y City just to discuss this project with you. I can't possibly wait for you to finish your work. "
I didn't want to be indecisive, so I opened my mouth and said to him, "Yu Jin, truthfully, I don't want to affect you because of the past. Whether you acknowledge me or not, your position in my heart has never changed. Even if you've done a lot to me before, I still can't forgive you for what you did, but in this world, I will always be the first person who wishes for you to live a good life.
Four years have passed, and time has proven to us that leaving each other is much better than tying each other together. You are now perfect in everything, have children and wives, if my parents knew, I think they would be able to rest in peace, and me. And there will be no other four years to quell the gossip. " After saying all that, I paused before continuing. "Therefore, when Fu Ziya hasn't found out about our past, regardless of whether it's now or in the future, we'll meet each other as little as possible. This is what I want to say today."
After I finished saying all that in one breath, Yu Jin on the other end of the phone did not reply to me. I thought that there was something wrong with his phone, and took a look at it. But there was no sound of breathing from Yu Jin's side.
I tried calling him, "Yu Jin?"
When no one answered, I said, "Are you there?"
Just as he was about to hang up, footsteps came from the other side of the phone, following that, someone seemed to have picked up the phone. Yu Jin's voice finally sounded from the other side, he said: Sorry, I was busy earlier, did anything happen for you to call me?
"…"
When he saw that I was silent, he said, "Eh?" He made a sound.
After a few seconds of silence, I said, "No, it's nothing."
He said, "Is it really okay?"
I said, "It's fine."
He said, "Since there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. The child is crying. "
I didn't wait for him to hang up, but cut off the phone first. I felt foolish at the moment, so I threw the phone on the sofa and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After that, I no longer took the initiative to call Yu Jin to urge him about the project. If he didn't want to talk about it, then even if I called him ten or eight times, it would be useless.
On the contrary, On Syouwa made a few calls and came over to ask about my project. I always said that the person in charge of the Treasure Lotus was very busy, and was still scheduling time, and On Syouwa was more patient than me, he spoke a few more times over and over on the phone, not rush, and told me to be patient, and wait until the Treasure Lotus made room for some time, and then we could discuss. He also told me not to be anxious, and not to let the other party look down on our Yu's.
I didn't think that both sides would have psychological tactics for this case, but both sides are not in a rush, so as the middleman, I am even less anxious. There is still no conclusion to what happened with Li Luo, and there is still no news from him, so I have to take advantage of the time that On Syouwa needs me to quickly fish Li Guoping out.
I stayed in Yi City for about four to five days, and in these five days, other than the two days where I called Yu Jin, I did not contact him again. Fu Ziya also did not make any other movements.
I took the opportunity to fly back to the city to take care of Li Guoping's things. After all, I cannot sit here and wait forever for Yu Jin to come find me, I don't have that much time to waste with him.
So on the sixth day, after I packed my stuff and was about to leave the hotel for the airport, Anne suddenly appeared at the door of my room. She saw that I was holding onto my luggage and immediately asked: "Miss Yu, where are you going?"
I didn't think that I would meet her at this time, for the past few days she has been by my side like a shadow, I even suspected that she wasn't here to receive me, but Yu Jin was the one who sent her to monitor me.
I don't plan to hide it from her. After all, it's my freedom if I don't want to leave. I'm only here to negotiate cooperation and not belong to the staff of their Treasure Lotus.
After I closed the door, I immediately instructed Anne: "I have some matters to attend to at home. If your boss has decided on the time to play with me, just give me a call, I will be the first to come over."
After I finished speaking, I pulled my luggage and walked towards the elevator. Anne immediately followed behind me and said, "Miss Yu, don't you dare go yet. Let me give Assistant Chen a call and inform her that you can leave after this. "
Arriving in front of the elevator, I reached down and pressed the button. "You can call them, including your boss, but I have to go now. I've booked a plane ticket."
Anne's face was filled with anxiety as she said, "But … "I …" Before she could finish her sentence, she saw that I had already entered the elevator and became even more confused. She wanted to follow me in, but I immediately pressed the button to close the door and shut her out in time.
She just watched me leave the hotel.
When I reached downstairs, I didn't know if it was Anne who called Chen Su, but in the next second, his phone call came in. He asked from the other side of the phone: "Miss Yu, do you want to leave?"
I said, "When your boss wants to talk to me, give me a call."
I said this and hung up the phone. Just as I was about to go to the road to hail a taxi, the phone rang again, I thought it was Chen Su again, and just as I took out my phone from my bag and pressed down on it, my nails landed on the hang up button.
I pressed the answer button, and Fu Ziya's phone call came through. She spoke into the phone: "Little Wei, are you in City Y now?"
I don't know why she called me, but regardless of the reason for her call, I don't want to have too much contact with her right now. I asked her with a smile in my usual voice, "Chengya, what's wrong? What's the matter? "
She said into the phone, "I want to buy you a meal and ask you something."
I was stunned for a few seconds. Seeing that I didn't say anything, she asked, "What's wrong?" Is it inconvenient? "
I immediately smiled and said, "No, when are you free?"
Fu Ziya said, "I want now."
I was a little surprised. "It's that urgent?"
She said, "Yes, do you have time?"
I said, "Send me the address. I'll be right over."
Fu Ziya said from the other end of the phone, "Thank you."
After Fu Ziya and I hung up the phone, a message quickly came out from my phone. It was the meeting address Fu Ziya sent over, I stared at the address for a long time, and I didn't know when a car had stopped in front of me. I didn't think much, I opened the car door and got in, then told the driver the address Fu Ziya gave me.
After arriving at the agreed location with Fu Ziya, she was already in the coffee shop waiting for me. When she saw me dragging my luggage in, she stood up from her chair and walked over to me. "Where are you going?"
I said, "I'm going home."
She immediately stretched out her hand to take my luggage and said, "It's already very late, why are you still coming over? Is there something important over there?"
I smiled at her. "Something really important."
Just when I was about to follow Fu Ziya to the seating area, I realized that she had brought the child here too. Xiao Mu was sitting there and eating her cake.
After Fu Ziya helped me put the luggage under the table, she pulled me who was staring at Xiao Mu in a daze and sat down, then asked me: "Do you want to eat something?"
I withdrew my gaze from Xiao Mu and smiled: "Bai Kaishui is good."
Fu Ziya didn't stand on ceremony with me. She quickly asked the waiter for two cups of boiled water, and after the waiter left, she nervously held onto the cup of coffee in her hands.
She used her fingertips vigorously on her coffee cup. His fingers were white.
Although I have never interacted with Fu Ziya before, during this period of time, according to my understanding of her, she should be very abnormal right now.
She looked at me and didn't say anything, so I took the initiative and asked softly, "Sansa, what's wrong?"
At first, I didn't clearly see who it was until I received it from her hands. Only after I took a glance at it, did my fingertip shake, and that object fell onto the table. I then immediately picked it up and looked at Fu Ziya.
She looked back at me.
What Fu Ziya gave me was a picture of a girl wearing school uniform. She looked to be about fifteen, her face was a little blurry due to the amount of time she had passed, and even a little yellow. But at first glance, I didn't even need to look at her face to know who the girl in the photo was.
I didn't know where Fu Ziya had gotten my picture from. At that moment, I even wondered if she knew something, but before the situation became completely clear, I didn't reveal myself. Instead, I tried my best to restrain myself and asked in a small voice, "Where did this picture come from?"
Fu Ziya said: "This was found in my master's wallet, last night."
I tried to ask her, "You... Know her? "
Fu Ziya shook his head and said: "It was because I didn't know her that I came to find you."
At her words, a clenched fist on the table finally relaxed. Apparently, she didn't recognize me.
Fu Ziya looked at me seriously and said: "Little Wei, I don't have any friends, I haven't had any since I was young. When I was very young, I only had family members, only teachers, and I have never gone to school for a day.
She squeezed my hand, her eyes full of trust and supplication, even a trace of help.
I have absolutely no idea what Fu Ziya is going to tell me, but I am certain. What she wanted to say should be related to Yu Jin.
Fu Ziya didn't wait for me to reply, she had already started speaking impatiently, she already seemed to already believe that we were friends from the bottom of her heart, friends that wouldn't betray each other.
She said, "Actually, my husband and I haven't gotten married yet."
The moment she opened her mouth, such explosive news came out. I could only try my best to control my emotions as I asked in shock, "What?"
Fu Ziya said: "It can be said that we are not husband and wife at all. My father only has one daughter, and before he died, he entrusted me and his Treasure Lotus to him. Actually, the time I truly met him was only a year." She shook her head and said, "I simply don't know why my father gave everything he had to a stranger. He only told me that Jean could protect me and my Treasure Lotus. After my father died, the two of us addressed each other as husband and wife, so that he could properly take over the Treasure Lotus. Those uncles of mine all wanted to take the Treasure Lotus from my hands, but before my father died, I did not have all the shares of the Treasure Lotus. Instead, it was given to Jean, so my uncles did not have the chance to do so. He treats me like a big brother. Although sometimes I am a little afraid of him, but he actually doesn't have a temper, he's very gentle, and basically never got angry at me. Little Wei, I'm so scared, I'm so scared, what can I do! "
I have no idea what Fu Ziya is saying at all, because her words are a little out of place, and her emotions are a little agitated. She and Yu Jin were not husband and wife, and the reason they addressed each other as husband and wife was because it would be convenient for Yu Jin to control the entire Treasure Lotus after Fu Ziya's father died. It would also prevent the uncles and uncles Fu Ziya had to divide the Treasure Lotus up between the weak and incompetent Fu Ziya.
Fu Ziya also trusted Yu Jin a lot, but why did she say that she was afraid of those words, what was she afraid of? Did her fear have anything to do with this picture?
Fu Ziya also realized that she was saying things that others would not understand. She kept asking me if I understood what she was saying. Whether she said it clearly or not, I immediately nodded my head and said, I understood, I told her not to rush, slowly, slowly.
At this moment, a waiter came up with two cups of plain water. I immediately brought one cup to her and said, "Calm down, let's drink some water first."
She looked at me and then took the glass of water that I passed to her with trembling hands. Even after drinking it all in one go, she was still unable to control her emotions. At this point of time, her face was filled with helplessness as she cried and said, "Little Wei, I seem to have been put under house arrest by Jean. What should I do?"
I instantly raised my voice and said, "house arrest?"
She pointed hard and said, "Do you know why I have so many bodyguards around me? Actually, they weren't protecting me at all, they were only monitoring my people, who were controlling me. Only today did I realize that I still had 10% of the original shares in Treasure Lotus, and unknowingly, from a certain time onwards, I had changed all of them into the name of Jean. But these were all nothing, if he wanted Treasure Lotus, I could give them all to him. Little Wei, if he doesn't love me, what should I do? I don't have Treasure Lotus, I don't have any money on me, I only have him! "
Fu Ziya grabbed onto my hand with incredible force, to the point where I could even feel her nails digging into my flesh. She was simply too agitated, her voice was a bit loud, and the people sitting around us constantly looked over at us, so I could only hold her hand backwards, saying to Fu Ziya, who might not even know what I was talking about, "Don't be agitated yet, what do you want me to do by saying all of this now? Do you want me to help you? "
Fu Ziya shook her head fiercely and cried: "I don't know, Little Wei, I don't have a friend, I don't have a family member either, the only person I know right now is you, I'm afraid of losing Jean, I don't want him to love other people, I want him to marry me, can you help me, what can I do to get him? "Just treat it as me begging you …"
I said, "Don't cry yet. Can you calm down first?" I asked again, "Did you find out that all the shares in your name were changed yesterday?"
She nodded her head vigorously and said, "Yes, I didn't care about this before. I accidentally discovered it yesterday."
I said, "Did you ask Jean?"
She said: "I don't dare to ask him, I'm afraid to ask him, if I ask him, he wouldn't care about me, right now the entire Treasure Lotus is under his control, although the chairman of the Treasure Lotus is me, but I have always been a puppet, and even more so don't have any rights to speak anymore."
That is to say, after Fu Ziya's father died, he gave Yu Jin half of the shares of the Treasure Lotus and the other half was given to his daughter, Fu Ziya. This is a family business, although Yu Jin said that he and Fu Ziya had married, he was still unable to become the chairman of the Treasure Lotus, so after Fu Ziya's father died, he passed the position to her daughter, Fu Ziya, but in reality, the Treasure Lotus is controlled by Yu Jin. And following after Yu Jin's forces being rooted to the ground day by day, Fu Ziya's position was now completely lifted. She, who originally had a bit of shares, had unknowingly been changed by Yu Jin.
In other words, right now, Fu Ziya was just an empty commander, and she only realised this point yesterday. No wonder Fu Ziya was so flustered.
I never thought that what seemed to be a beautiful Treasure Lotus would actually be a mess within, and hide so many shameful things, and the person controlling all of this behind the scenes, was actually Yu Jin.
This is for me. What a great secret.
Previously, I maintained a wait-and-see attitude towards Fu Ziya, but now it seems that her innocence was not an act, but that she was really like that. From young, she did not have any friends, and did not go to school, but was taught by a teacher in the family.
She had never come into contact with society. It was reasonable that she had such a personality.
Somehow, I actually felt a little pity for her, so I couldn't help but remind her: "Right now, it's not that you need to worry about losing your Jean, but you need to think about how to get yourself out of his control, and how to get your Treasure Lotus back."
After Fu Ziya heard these words, she began to sob. "I don't care about these things at all, I only want the jean. Little Wei, you don't understand me at all."
I thought she was naive and scary, and I even said, "But what's the use of having him take everything away from you? For a man with ulterior motives, do you still wish to be with him? "
She asked with tears all over her face, "Why not? I can give him everything. I am not interested in whatever kind of Treasure Lotus I possess, but I cannot afford to lose my hat. "
I said, "Did you come to me today to ask me to help you marry him and fall in love with you?"
Fu Ziya cried as she nodded her head, she said: "I have no one who can advise me, so, Little Wei I can only come to find you."
I had no idea what the head of this young lady was made of. She had been placed under house arrest by a man and had taken everything from him. She even wanted to marry him. She had read too many romance novels, and had even read too many of them with morals.
I held up the bag on the table and said to Fu Ziya: "I'm sorry, I really can't help you with these things, I really don't understand emotions."
I turned around to leave, but Fu Ziya immediately pulled me back and said: "Little Wei, don't go. I'm begging you, please help me."
When I was about to sit down, Fu Ziya's cell phone rang. Immediately after, she released me, picked up the phone and looked at it, then said: "It's Jean who called."
She looked at me nervously, holding the phone, as if to ask if I wanted to answer it.
But even if she managed to escape, according to my understanding of Yu Jin, she shouldn't be able to escape too far. I said to her, "Receive it first."
After Fu Ziya heard what I said, she then pressed the answer button.
