Chapter 282: Give It to Him If He Wants It

~4 min read 619 words

After a long while, Lu Xiwán finally regained her composure and said softly, "President Fu has already learned to take his anger out on me now?"

Fu Sijue's fingers brushed Lu Xiwán's cheek, "What I said is true."

If it happens even once more, even if it's Fu Sijue, Shen Shu's younger brother, he won't show any mercy.

Lu Xiwán moved his hand away, adjusted her clothing, "If the people at the company see you like this, they'll have something to talk about tomorrow."

Fu Sijue squeezed her hand and, out of place, said, "Eat more from now on, you're too skinny."

Lu Xiwán glared at him, and only then did Fu Sijue feign serious contemplation, "Let them see it then; we're upright and haven't done anything wrong to anyone."

Lu Xiwán withdrew her hand and looked at Fu Sijue even more seriously.

"I still haven't figured out how to face our past."

There is Gu Qingmeng's involvement, a past stained with many unpleasant misdeeds.

Even now, in everyone's eyes, Lu Xiwán is a missing person who hasn't returned.

"I'll take care of everything."

"Then at least tell me, where are we going now? I was just about to go home, and you pulled me into the car."

Jealous men are terrifying; Fu Sijue was just thinking about taking Lu Xiwán away from Shen Zeyu's side and almost forgot to inform her.

"The Fu Clan's overseas partner is coming to Haicheng today to discuss cooperation with us."

"So you still brought me along?" Although Fu Sijue said he didn't mind, Lu Xiwán had just personally handed the Fu Clan's overseas cooperation documents to Fu Zhuo, and she still felt embarrassed to face this situation.

Fu Sijue patted Lu Xiwán's shoulder as if to comfort her.

"Don't worry, it's all arranged by me."

Fu Sijue had long been prepared for everything Fu Zhuo did, so he remained completely unflustered.

He reached out and adjusted Lu Xiwán's lapel, "All you need to do is stay by my side; today I've also invited my uncle's people."

Fu Sijue was deliberately giving Fu Zhuo a chance to exploit a loophole.

Otherwise, dragging it out like this would have the greatest impact on the Fu Clan.

Lu Xiwán naturally understood that Fu Sijue had his own considerations, so although she felt doubtful, she merely nodded in agreement.

Because they were delayed at Shen Zeyu's place, Shen Shu arrived fashionably late, hurriedly catching up with Fu Sijue, who had been walking ahead.

"President Fu, it's all my fault today, it affected you…"

"Now stop saying that, let's go in first," Fu Sijue said in a flat tone.

He wasn't so foolish as to take out his anger over Shen Zeyu's trivial matter onto Shen Shu.

The private room was already packed, and after Fu Sijue entered, the group instantly stood up.

Shen Shu gave them an apologetic smile, then explained fluently in a foreign language, "Sorry, I was delayed a moment by some personal trivial matter."

They wouldn't dare truly save Shen Shu's face, so each quickly waved them off.

"This is my uncle; in the future he may also take part in the Fu Clan's trade with you," Fu Sijue said casually.

Fu Zhuo wore a satisfied smile, yet still clung to a humble excuse on his lips.

"A Jue, where are these words coming from? We're already one family; you contain me, I contain you, there's no need to draw such clear lines."

In front of a group of foreigners, Fu Zhuo and Fu Sijue, along with Qi Qi's explanation, put in ample face‑saving effort.

Lu Xiwán let out a snort of derision in her heart, yet she also preserved Fu Zhuo's face.
