Chapter 86

Fu Chenyan was busy sending out resumes everywhere, looking for a job in a frantic state, when he saw Lin Miao's WeChat message.

He asked immediately.

【Impossible, she is not the type of person to look for a better horse while riding a donkey; she would never cheat on me.】

He and Shu Xia had been together for over seven years, from high school until now, and he had never once thought that Shu Xia would betray him.

He did not know why, but ever since he saw Shu Xia yesterday, his heart had been filled with a constant, intense panic, a kind of panic that could not be described in words.

It was as if he were truly about to lose Shu Xia.

Seeing Fu Chenyan's confidence in himself, Lin Miao was so angry that she called him.

"My father and I came to Qiao Group today, and right in front of the Qiao Group building, I saw her delivering soup to Zhang Tezhu. Moreover, Zhang Tezhu even slandered me and my father in front of Qiao to protect her. Fu Chenyan, she betrayed you a long time ago. I really underestimated her before; I thought she wouldn't do such outrageous things."

But then again, Shu Xia's horizons were only so limited.

The highest she could reach was Zhang Tezhu.

"Zhang Tezhu? The assistant by the side of Qiao, the head of Qiao Group?" Fu Chenyan's expression stiffened instantly.

"Yes, it's him. Although he's not as good as Qiao, he is also very handsome and capable. Fu Chenyan, you need to think of a way. Even my father supports Shu Xia and Zhang Tezhu being together now; even if it's just being Zhang Tezhu's mistress, my father would probably agree." The more Lin Miao spoke, the more annoyed she became; her father's attitude just now was very different from before.

Fu Chenyan suddenly felt as if a piece of his heart were missing. "That's impossible. She is just angry with me. Do you know where she works? Could it be that she is just doing a favor for someone? She would absolutely never be someone's mistress."

In the seven years Shu Xia and he had been together, the two of them had never crossed the line, precisely because they wanted to wait for the day they got married.

Sometimes he felt she was too conservative, and other times he felt her being conservative was a good thing, so how could she possibly be someone's mistress?

"Why do you still insist on deceiving yourself? You should think about it carefully yourself." Lin Miao hung up the phone impatiently.

Before, she had felt that since Fu Chenyan was Shu Xia's boyfriend, being able to snatch him away would prove that she was better than Shu Xia.

Thinking of the indifference Qiao Muting had shown her just now, she felt incredibly annoyed; it must be because Shu Xia had whispered sweet nothings in Zhang Tezhu's ear!

Fu Chenyan was finally afraid, and he began to frantically call and message Shu Xia.

But without exception, there was no response.

He was extremely anxious.

He called Jiang Nannan again, but Jiang Nannan did not answer either.

In the end, he could only call his mother. "Mom, could you please call Shu Xia's adoptive mother? Ask about Shu Xia's situation? Lin Miao told me just now that Shu Xia seems to have been kept by someone. The reason she broke up with me must be that she looks down on me for being poor. I... I cannot lose Shu Xia yet."

Upon hearing that Shu Xia had broken up with Fu Chenyan because she was being kept by someone, Fu's mother was so angry that she called Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye happened to be resting at home today, busy cleaning, and she frowned when she saw Fu's mother calling.

Why were the adults getting involved in the children's affairs?

"Old Fu, is something the matter?" Jiang Ye asked.

Fu's mother snorted. "Do you know that Xia Xia is being kept by someone outside? She only broke up with my son because she is being kept."

If there was to be a breakup, it should have been her son who proposed it first, not Shu Xia.

Clearly, Shu Xia had been very fond of her son before, going out of her way to please her, but now, she actually dared to betray Chen Yan!

Jiang Ye's face turned cold. "I know very well what kind of child Xia Xia is, and you know very well what kind of person your son is. It was your son who wronged Xia Xia first. If you had any conscience, you wouldn't have made this call, considering how Xia Xia has treated you over these past few years."

"I never asked her to be good to me; she was the one who came running over, wasn't it because she was so fond of my son? If it weren't for her, my son could have found someone better given his conditions. Jiang Ye, you've always been improper, relying on your good looks. Look at Shu Xia, she's just like you, having learned to be just as improper." Fu's mother scolded, speaking without thinking.

"Sooner or later, you and your son will both regret this! You have insulted and hurt Xia Xia so much today; you will face retribution in the future!" Jiang Ye's hands were trembling with anger.

Thinking of the grievances Xia Xia had suffered, even after hanging up the phone, Jiang Ye's eyes were red; she truly felt heartbroken for Xia Xia.
