Chapter 155: The Weather Turns Cool

Everyone present today is a partner of the Fu Family.

If you don't make yourself clear today, it'll be hard for us to believe you.

Jing Jing'er, leaning on her family's support, doesn't take Lu Xiwán seriously and publicly challenges Fu Sijue under everyone's gaze.

Lu Xiwán clicked her tongue, "Do you just believe whatever outsiders say?"

"Is Miss Jing's ear that soft?"

Lu Xiwán's mockery made Jing Jing'er blush instantly.

How could she have the nerve to admit she only heard it twice from others, and today, seeing her dear sister looking pitiful, she comes to Lu Xiwán to confront her?

"I know Xiao Jin's character! She's definitely not the way you describe!"

After a long silence, Fu Sijue sneered, his complexion far from pleasant.

Lu Xiwán is the person he brought.

Jing Jing'er publicly challenging him is like slapping him in the face before all these people.

"I also know Xi Wan; she's not like you say."

Fu Sijue didn't hold back his words; a proper meeting turned into a crowd watching the two of them bicker.

Jing Jing'er pulled Yun Ruojin from behind to the front and said, "We respect your ability, which is why we chose to cooperate with you, why we chose to trust the Fu Clan."

"But if President Fu keeps trusting a woman of unknown background, it inevitably chills our hearts."

Her lofty words, however, harshly pushed Fu Sijue onto an unjust ground.

Fu Sijue choosing Lu Xiwán is ingratitude.

Choosing these groups is slapping his own face.

Whichever he picks, it's ungrateful.

Lu Xiwán frowned, not quite understanding Jing Jing'er's line of thought.

Their three‑person issue has to be dragged onto Fu Sijue's head?

Just as Lu Xiwán was about to speak, Fu Sijue pulled her behind him; his towering figure inexplicably gave Lu Xiwán a sense of security.

If Fu Sijue had protected her like this back then, perhaps none of those events would have occurred.

"Who Xi Wan is, I don't need you all to remind me."

"And—do you think your family is important in my eyes?"

Fu Sijue's lips curled into a smile, but his cold gaze made Jing Jing'er shiver.

"The Fu Clan's achievements today rely on everyone's trust in us, but you must not think the Fu Clan cannot operate without you."

Fu Sijue's words rang out, ensuring everyone present could hear.

Fu Sijue led Lu Xiwán by the hand to the front, "The Fu Clan doesn't need to use Marriage Alliance to please anyone, nor does it need a Marriage Alliance to gain anything."

"My marriage has nothing to do with anyone."

"If I ever hear anyone slander Xi Wan again, I will make you pay the price."

Jing Jing'er was so overpowered by his aura that she dared not speak.

Yun Ruojin's heart felt like it was being sliced by a knife, yet she could only maintain a calm exterior.

Lu Xiwán's palm grew slightly warm and sweaty from Fu Sijue's grip.

"Without the Fu Clan, the ones affected are probably you, right?"

Fu Sijue looked down at Jing Jing'er with a flat tone, yet it was enough to make her tremble with fear.

Jing Jing'er stepped back two paces, staring at Fu Sijue in disbelief.

Fu Sijue's words completely shattered her perception.

She saw a heavy malice in Fu Sijue's eyes, yet she didn't dare to cry.

Jing Jing'er clearly realized she had messed something up.

But in front of so many people, she still had to force herself not to cry.

"I think the Jing Family no longer needs to stay in Haicheng," Fu Sijue said lightly, as if he were just deciding what to eat tonight.
