Chapter 290: Came With Dad

~4 min read 601 words

"You've been by President Fu's side for so many years, yet you haven't noticed his most fatal flaw."

Ji Luo has always known that Shen Shu is Fu Sijue's most trusted subordinate, his right-hand man.

Therefore, seeing Shen Shu beside Fu Zhuo was the most surprising thing for Ji Luo.

"President Fu may be powerful, but he doesn't know how to flatter others."

Fu Sijue never cares about social niceties, nor does he care about Marriage Alliance, a matter that greatly benefits both families.

He would even offend the entire Yun Family for Lu Xiwán.

"For us merchants, that's a big taboo."

Fu Sijue's path is destined to be rugged, because aside from a few confidants, he has almost no trustworthy people around him.

"Fu Zhuo broke his wings; the rumors online and the distrust within the company will eventually become the sharpest knife that defeats President Fu."

"Chief Ji asked me, 'What are you doing with this?'"

Shen Shu pretended to be clueless and asked Ji Luo, "Chief Ji is now also by Mr. Fu's side; shouldn't he be more eager for Fu Clan Chaos?"

Ji Luo smiled nonchalantly, not caring at all about Shen Shu's rude tone.

"No one can be blamed; everyone starts from their own interests. Everyone is looking forward to Fu Clan Chaos, the Haicheng market can be reshuffled, everyone wants a piece of the pie, and I'm no exception."

When a person holds enough profit in hand, they keep fantasizing about more, then even more.

They all cannot escape this rule.

"The benefits Fu Zhuo offers are tempting enough, so I won't refuse. But during the days I spent by President Fu's side, I truly hoped for his well‑being."

With Fu Sijue's ability, even without inheriting the Fu Family's ancestral foundation, he could still thrive.

It just takes a longer time.

"Please convey a message to President Fu, wishing him good health and all the best."

After speaking, Ji Luo turned his head and left, giving Shen Shu no chance to respond.

Shen Shu usually has no interaction with Ji Luo, so he had no need to say much; thus he delivered the words to Fu Sijue, who was resting at home.

After hearing it, Fu Sijue merely gave a faint hum; his calm demeanor actually made some people feel uncertain.

"President Fu has nothing to say?"

"Ji Shushu has been by my grandfather's side since my father was young; he only cares about me."

Fu Sijue seemed completely indifferent, but after Shen Shu's repeated inquiries, he perfunctorily asked him to pass along a few courteous words.

"How do I recall that ever since Fu Zhuo took power, Ji Luo has been the most lively in the company, and you still have the energy to chat with him?"

Lu Xiwán only teased, after all Ji Luo is cunning and has many more years of experience than Fu Sijue; what if this is a trap set for him?

In Fu Sijue's eyes lay a starry sea, brewing a layer of black mist, making it impossible to see what he is scheming.

"Ji Shushu wouldn't be that foolish; Fu Zhuo wouldn't trust anyone around him."

No matter who approaches Fu Sijue or what news is transmitted, Fu Zhuo's side will receive it immediately.

Ji Luo's not coming in person must also have his reasons.

"What are you thinking?"

"Ji Shushu's health has issues, and the company currently has no major incidents," Fu Sijue said calmly, as all of this was within his expectations.

The only thing he hadn't anticipated was the news of Ji Luo falling ill.
