Chapter 558: If There Is No Love, Then Let There Be Hate

~5 min read 842 words

After this matter came to a temporary close, Liu Chuxue finally brought up her own news: "Coincidentally, I also have something to tell you."

Fu Yan Cheng's voice even carried a hint of tenderness: "What is it?"

Liu Chuxue glanced at Section Chief Li, who had already left the office: "Section Chief told me today that I am to travel to the three northeastern provinces this Wednesday with comrades from the factory's sales and technical departments."

Fu Yan Cheng frowned slightly upon hearing this: "How long will you be gone?"

Liu Chuxue thought for a moment: "Just the round-trip journey will take several days, plus we have to stop in all three provinces; I'm afraid the duration won't be short."

Although Fu Yan Cheng was somewhat unwilling for her to endure hardships, this was Section Chief Li's first time assigning her a business trip, and it would not be good to go back on his word; truly doing so would not benefit her in carrying out her work: "Do you have paper and pen nearby? I will give you a few phone numbers; if anything happens over there, you can ask them for help. Don't be shy; I will find a chance to repay the favor later."

Liu Chuxue thought this made sense; having an extra layer of protection from the Ye family while away was a good thing, so she took a pen and paper from Section Chief Li: "Go ahead."

In a short while, five names and phone numbers were written on the paper.

Then Fu Yan Cheng said: "These are all my comrades-in-arms. Even if you are not in the city where they are stationed, if anything happens, you can call them; they will find a way to help you."

Liu Chuxue felt a surge of emotion in her heart: "Thank you."

"What are you saying? You are my wife."

Liu Chuxue spoke quickly: "Not yet."

Upon hearing this, Fu Yan Cheng could not let it pass and immediately replied: "It will be sooner or later."

Liu Chuxue did not want to join him in being childish: "Stop, stop, stop, hold it."

She could hear someone laughing; it must have been the operator who transferred the call. Being laughed at by others for such childish words made her want to hang up immediately.

She heard it, and naturally Fu Yan Cheng heard it too; his face darkened a few shades, and after a light cough, he said: "Be sure to stay safe while on the business trip."

Liu Chuxue made a soft 'Mm' sound: "Okay, I will bring back some delicious local food for you when I return."

Fu Yan Cheng did not respond to that, but instead said: "Do not run around alone; safety is the most important thing. Remember that?"

Liu Chuxue laughed out loud: "I remember."

Fu Yan Cheng knew she had not truly taken it to heart; thinking of her martial skills, if any eyeless troublemakers actually tried to cause trouble, it was unknown who would end up suffering the loss.

After hanging up the phone, he could not help but smile at the corners of his mouth.

On the other side, Qi Shufang, upon learning that Ding Surong had not only failed to deal with the person for her but had instead been outmaneuvered by her, was so angry that she cursed and scolded for a long time.

With a pent-up breath in her heart, she immediately dug herself into a corner: Why should a country bumpkin win his heart? Why should I, who have loved you for so many years, not even get a glance from you?

Since you have shown no benevolence, do not blame me for showing no righteousness; since you like her so much, I will destroy her, making you suffer unbearable pain; if there is no love, then let there be hate.

So she picked up her bag and went out the door.

Grandpa Qi, seeing his granddaughter about to leave, asked: "Fangfang, where are you going?"

Qi Shufang felt that her grandfather was not worried on her behalf and even grew to resent him: "Naturally, I am going out to clear my mind."

Having finished speaking, she ignored Grandpa Qi's expression and walked straight out the door.

Grandpa Qi watched his granddaughter's back and finally let out a sigh, saying nothing more.

He naturally wanted his granddaughter to get her wish, but if the fourth son of the Fu family would not budge, what could he do?

However, regarding Fu Yan Cheng's lack of tact, he was indeed somewhat displeased, so he had been making small moves quite often lately.

He thought he had done everything perfectly without a flaw, but who was Fu Yan Cheng? He was a black-hearted glutinous rice ball; if he struck back at him, it could be explained, but if he tripped up other family members, then do not blame him for counterattacking; he was not someone to be slaughtered at will, especially since he did not feel he had done anything wrong.
