There was tranquility inside and outside the Yu family villa.
Cheng Zitong sat down on a bench in the garden, with a calm expression showing no emotion.
"The doctor came here just now," assistant Xiaoquan said, "Miss Yu's wound is recovering very slowly. The doctor said it is mainly due to heart disease."
Cheng Zitong was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of Yuan'er?"
Koizumi shook his head.
"Go find Yuan'er." Cheng Zitong ordered.
Xiaoquan looked unwilling, "Mr. Cheng, you should be more concerned about Miss Yu now, otherwise something will really happen..."
A cold light suddenly appeared in Cheng Zitong's eyes, and just as he was about to speak, the housekeeper of the Yu family hurried out.
Xiaoquan stepped forward anxiously: "Butler, what happened?"
He was worried about Yu Lingfei's condition.
The housekeeper looked at him, then at Cheng Zitong, and paused: "Mr. Cheng, Fu Yuan'er is here."
Cheng Zitong was slightly stunned.
The small door next to the main door opened, and Fu Yuan'er walked in. There was no expression on her face, but the shadows in her eyes betrayed her deep thoughts.
"Miss Fu," the housekeeper stood in front of Fu Yuan'er, her eyes full of hostility, "You are not suitable to come here now."
Although Yu Lingfei managed to save his life, he remained lying on the bed miserably, relying on the potion to take a breath.
Fu Yuan'er looked at the housekeeper: "Then she should see me. Maybe after seeing me, she will get better."
The butler frowned in confusion.
"Yuan'er!" Cheng Zitong quickly walked around the housekeeper and came to her.
He couldn't hide his anxiety and unconsciously grabbed her hand: "Where have you been?"
Xiao Quan looked on anxiously, this was the Yu family, what he did was so inappropriate!
Fu Yuan'er gave Cheng Zi the same look, her eyes unwavering, and she took her hand back.
Cheng Zitong was stunned...
"I'm not here to find you." Fu Yuan'er said expressionlessly, "I want to see Miss Yu."
The housekeeper immediately refused: "Miss Fu, it's not convenient for the eldest lady to see you now."
"Ask her, she will want to see me." Fu Yuan'er replied.
The housekeeper hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked inside.
"Follow me." Cheng Zitong grabbed Fu Yuan'er's hand and turned around.
"Cheng Zitong, it's time to make a decision." Fu Yuan'er said.
Her voice was so cold and distant, as if they were strangers.
Cheng Zitong's heart skipped a beat, "Have you misunderstood something? Yu Lingfei and I have nothing to do... I've been looking for you these past two days..."
She still had no expression, only the trembling eyelashes revealed her thoughts... It was a pity that he didn't see it.
"I didn't misunderstand," she said, "Miss Yu is like this, you should take good care of her."
Just as Cheng Zitong was about to speak, the housekeeper came over and said, "Miss Fu, please come in."
"Yuan'er..." Cheng Zitong wanted to stop her from entering, but Fu Yuan'er had already walked forward.
Cheng Zitong was about to follow, Xiaoquan took a step forward and said, "Mr. Cheng!"
"You have to calm down," Xiaoquan reminded him: "This is the Yu family. If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about Miss Fu!"
At this moment, Mr. Yu can do anything!
Cheng Zitong lowered his eyes.
Fu Yuan'er walked into the room and saw Yu Lingfei lying on the bed, his face was pale and he was very weak.
"Are you here to see my joke?" Yu Lingfei said weakly.
Fu Yuan'er walked to her side and her eyes fell on the gauze on her wrist.
"It hurts a lot," Fu Yuan'er asked, "Is it worth it for a man?"
Yu Lingfei disagreed, "Are you here to persuade me to give up?"
"I want to know how far you can go for Cheng Zitong," she said.
Yu Lingfei was stunned for a moment, and a trace of angry blush appeared on his face, "Are you mocking me?"
She has cut her wrists, what else can she do?
"But you haven't got him yet, there's no value in what you're doing..."
Yu Lingfei's anger did not burst out, so she continued: "Promise me one thing, and I will let go."
"Let go?" Yu Lingfei was stunned.
"Yes, let go. I won't pester Cheng Zitong anymore, but whether he can belong to you depends on your own ability."
Yu Lingfei gasped for breath a few times due to excitement, and then gradually returned to calm, "What do you want me to do?"
"Help me find the safe left by Ling Lan."
Yu Lingfei was stunned and didn't understand why.
"I went to see my grandfather... He owed a lot of debt and was in poor health. He also wanted to see the Fu family prosper... Apart from getting the safe, I had no other way to revive the Fu family's business."
Yuan'er told the reason.
Yu Lingfei sneered: "I found the safe and gave it to Cheng Zitong. He will come back to me as well."
"Will it?" Fu Yuan'er asked back, her eyes raised in mockery.
Yu Lingfei's expression gradually changed, yes, as long as Fu Yuan'er doesn't let go, Cheng Zitong will never come to her side.
She had spent so much effort trying to get him to make a comeback, but she didn't expect that he was secretly accumulating power and could reverse the situation with just one move.
And during the reversal, he did not forget to help Fu Yuan'er and build the reputation of the newspaper.
She could first agree to Fu Yuan'er and let Fu Yuan'er leave him. As for whether to give the safe to Fu Yuan'er... she formed an insidious and brilliant idea in her mind.
"Fu Yuan'er, how can I trust you?" she asked.
Fu Yuan'er looked out the window.
Her eyes followed suit.
Cheng Zitong stood not far from the window, waiting for Fu Yuan'er to come out.
"Can you hear me talking to him?" Fu Yuan'er asked.
"I can go to the window." Yu Lingfei propped up his weak body.
"good."
After saying that, Fu Yuan'er walked out of the room, passed through the living room, walked out of the villa, and came to Cheng Zitong.
"Yuan'er..." Cheng Zitong was full of worry, but her eyes were so cold that she refused to let him get close.
"Cheng Zitong," she looked at him and spoke very clearly, "we are done here."
Cheng Zitong was stunned, as if he didn't hear what she just said.
She continued: "I don't want to get entangled with you anymore. From now on, please don't come to me again."
He remained unresponsive, refusing to believe what he was hearing.
She had finished speaking and walked away.
At this time she saw the figures of Yan Yan and Cheng Yiming.
Yan Yan saw what happened just now and cast a doubtful look at her.
At this moment, Fu Yuan'er could not say anything and continued to walk forward.
Until her figure disappeared into the night, Cheng Zitong just stood there without making any movement.
In the room, Yu Lingfei also saw all this.
"Do Fu Yuan'er and Cheng Zitong really break up?" Standing behind her was her mother, Mrs. Yu.
Mrs. Yu was worried: "Isn't it just an acting trick to deceive you?"
"Yuan'er, where are you?" Yan Yan's voice came over the phone, "I went to your house three times, but you were not at home."
"I'm... busy with some official business." Fu Yuan'er replied.
"Let's meet tonight. I'm going to the island to film a movie tomorrow."
"...I've been a little busy these two days. During the holiday, I went to the island to visit the class."
"You know what I want to ask, are you avoiding me?" Yan Yan asked.
"Yan Yan... I have decided to break up with him. There is really no need to say more about this matter."
"Can you tell me why?"
"Because my grandfather doesn't have much time left, I want to fulfill his wish."
"Is his wish that you and Cheng Zitong break up?"
"I must break up with Cheng Zitong in order to fulfill his wish."
"Yan Yan, I won't tell you anymore. The person I made an appointment with is here."
Fu Yuan'er put down the phone and looked at the man sitting in front of her.
I'm in my forties, and I'm well-maintained, so it's not hard to swallow.
"Are you the Mr. Kang introduced by Miss Yu?" she asked.
The man nodded and looked at Fu Yuan'er, "What does Miss Fu want from me?"
"I heard that you know Ms. Linglan?"
The man patted the armrest of the seat gently, "Many people have asked me about Sister Linglan recently. Can you tell me why?"
"Your name is Linglan, sister?"
"When I was eighteen years old, I followed Sister Linglan to sell rice dumplings in the supermarket. Speaking of which, if it weren't for her inspiration, I wouldn't be the boss of a food company now."
Fu Yuan'er smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that she also sold rice dumplings."
"You have to do anything to make a living, not to mention the Cheng family..." The man stopped talking immediately and realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said.
"I know everything about Linglan's past," Fu Yuan'er said, "but I don't know about Zongzi."
In this case, the man relaxed and said: "The rice dumplings sold by Sister Linglan are different from others. Now they must be Internet celebrity rice dumplings..."
He sighed softly, "Speaking of which, I don't understand why Sister Linglan is doing this when she is clearly not short of money."
Fu Yuan'er's heart moved: "Is she not short of money?"
The man stopped talking and looked at Fu Yuan'er meaningfully.
Fu Yuan'er understood what he meant, and Yu Lingfei introduced her to the man, saying that today was a transaction.
She must pay a certain price to get the information she wants.
Fu Yuan'er stood up and said, "Let's go."
The hotel is upstairs.
Fu Yuan'er led him to the door of the hotel room, hesitating slightly.
"What, changed your mind?" the man asked.
Fu Yuan'er took a deep breath and took out the room card she had prepared.
"Yuan'er!" Suddenly, a male voice sounded.
Cheng Zitong also came to the door of the room. He looked at her with a low look: "What are you doing?"
Fu Yuan'er smiled and disagreed, "When a man and a woman arrive in a hotel room, what else can they do?"
"Why?" Pain surged in his eyes.
She deliberately didn't look at him, but looked at the window in the corridor: "Why didn't you think about me when you were with Yu Lingfei?"
"She and I..."
"Now, you still want to tell me that you and Yu Lingfei are innocent?" She smiled coldly, "So what if you and her are innocent? She cut her wrists for you, and you are not with her.
, just because I don’t want to survive.”
"Cheng Zitong, don't you like me very much? You won't just watch me being tortured, right?"
Cheng Zitong's heart felt like being hit by a big stone. He opened his mouth several times before saying a few words: "I will protect you."
"You stay away from me to protect me."
Fu Yuan'er didn't want to say any more, so she picked up the room card and opened the door.
With a "pop" sound, the room card suddenly fell to the ground.
Cheng Zitong grabbed her wrist and pulled her away vigorously.
The man didn't catch up. He waited until their figures disappeared at the elevator entrance before he took out his mobile phone and dialed Yu Lingfei's number.
