Chapter 227: Woman, You Have Attracted My Attention
After the four of them came out of the clubhouse, they naturally went back to their own homes.
But tonight, an entertainment website suddenly posted a Weibo post with a cracking headline.
[Why Did An Heiress Degrade Herself? Climbed Into A Man’s Bed At Night But Was Thrown Out]
The news was pinned to the front page of all the major websites this night. The names used were all aliases, and the description of the person involved was very vague, so there was no way to guess the person’s ident.i.ty.
“She’s so shameless. Is there no other man in this world? She stripped, climbed onto a man’s bed, and got thrown out? If it were me, I would just jump off a building.”
“All that glitters is not gold. The affairs of these wealthy families are very dirty.”
“I wonder who the man is. His method of doing things was really swift, smooth, and clean. When dealing with this kind of woman, you can’t give them any face, or else they’ll just get even worse.”
…
But as the perpetrator, she would definitely make a connection between the news and herself.
The Sun family was in a complete uproar tonight. Sun Rui’s eyes were red with anxiety, and she asked her family to get people to take down the news quickly.
But her family didn’t do anything. She was so angry that she wanted to find someone to settle this matter herself.
Her father grabbed her phone and threw it on the ground, shattering it.
“Dad, such a big thing has happened, yet you’re not even helping me! Look at what those people on the internet are saying about me!
“Fu Sinian must be the one behind this. It must be him.
“If this goes on, how am I supposed to face anyone in the future?!”
…
“I’ve called your aunt. Don’t worry about the news.”
Sun Rui was anxious. “Why shouldn’t I worry?! She’s just afraid of offending Fu Sinian! She only cares about the Fu family! She even slapped me that day!”
“I think you’re just asking for a beating, you brainless thing. Now, apart from those who know it, who knows that this news is about you? If our family takes action to take down the news now, wouldn’t it be equivalent to us admitting it? Do you have any brains?
“Someone dug a hole, but you’re still planning to jump into it?
“Why did I give birth to a fool like you?!”
“Alright, stop talking. She’s just anxious. Little Rui, let’s go back to your room…” Mrs. Sun pulled Sun Rui toward her bedroom.
With Sun Rui crying and making a scene at home, the Sun family had a foul atmosphere.

Fu Chen rarely read such news and only found out that this matter was trending when Sun Qionghua called him.
“Third Brother, were you the one who did this to Little Rui? I heard that she went to hara.s.s you again today and was reprimanded by Sinian,” Sun Qionghua said with a smile, but the veins on her fingers holding her phone were bulging.
If her maternal family had a bad scandal, she would also lose face and be ashamed along with them.
“No.”
“Actually, this child is spoiled, so she did something out of line. You can just tell me…”
“Second Sister-in-Law.” Fu Chen chuckled softly. “If I really wanted to punish her, would I bother to go through so much trouble?”
“I’m just saying casually.” Sun Qionghua smiled.
…
After hanging up, Fu Chen called Duan Linbai.
“… I really didn’t do it.” Duan Linbai was lying on his bed and rubbing his eyes. “Those two things from the Sun family said that I wasn’t a man. I truly wanted to expose it, but I really didn’t do it.
“No matter what, I still have to take your second brother’s face into consideration.”
Fu Chen furrowed his brows. He knew Duan Linbai very well. Since he said that he didn’t do it, it had to be true. “Okay.”
“But I didn’t stop the news from spreading either.” Duan Linbai snorted coldly. Those two b.a.s.t.a.r.ds said that I’m gay? Who cares about their stupid mess?
Fu Chen smiled. Duan Linbai was also a vengeful person.
“Your second sister-in-law just called and asked me to help. What does it have to do with me? I’m already f*cking blind. Why should I care about this?
“The Sun family has power and influence. If they have the ability, they can go do it themselves.
“Why throw this stupid mess to me? I’m not obligated to wipe their a.s.s.”
…
Duan Linbai’s mouth seemed to be loaded with a machine gun as he continued to ramble on endlessly.
“Actually, when we were at the clubhouse during the day, the two of them also mentioned this incident. Good and bad people hang out in that place, so someone might have heard it and spread it.
“Sun Rui is usually arrogant and tyrannical, so she has offended many people. Someone probably wanted to mess with her, but they didn’t dare to offend the Sun family openly.
“It has nothing to do with us anyways.”
Fu Chen nodded. “Okay, then take proper care of your eyes.”
“By the way, Third Fu, I have to go for a check-up for my eyes in two days.”
“I have to accompany Wanwan for her exams. I’m not free.”
“Who the f*ck asked you? You’re prioritizing your girlfriend over your friends now. Tell me. How long has it been since you last came to my place?” Duan Linbai shouted.
“Be mindful of your words.” What does he mean by how long it has been since I last went to his place?
“My eyes are blind because of you. If they can’t recover, you’ll be responsible for me for the rest of my life.” Duan Linbai snorted. “I just want to say, that day… ahem, the one from last time…”
“Xu Jiamu,” Fu Chen said.
“Yes, her.”
“Want her to accompany you?”
“Isn’t she studying this profession?” Duan Linbai smiled guiltily.
“Do you want to woo her?”
“Nonsense. There’s no such thing.”
“I’ll give you her phone number. Find her yourself.”

Yunjin Prime Manor…
Song Fengwan finally had some time to take a break. After coming back at night and taking a shower, she didn’t draw anything and just curled up on the sofa and watched a Korean drama. Seeing Fu Chen finish talking on the phone, she asked, “Who’s Xu Jiamu?”
“A medical school student studying ophthalmology.”
“What’s her relations.h.i.+p with Big Brother Duan?”
“It’s complicated.”
“Big Brother Duan wants to woo her?”
“Probably on a whim. But…” Fu Chen sat beside her. “He might lose his life.”
Song Fengwan nodded and looked at Fu Chen. “Should I change to a news channel for you?”
“It’s okay. I’ll watch with you for a while.”
“You shouldn’t like watching these things, right?” Song Fengwan bit her lip.
The people around them lowered their heads and tried to hold back their laughter. Miss Song, when you had cla.s.s until late at night every day back then, Third Master watched so many Korean dramas.
She had been under the heavy pressure of continuous exams recently, and she had gone out to play for the entire day today. The Korean drama was a little draggy and made her sleepy, and somehow, her body slid toward Fu Chen.
Fu Chen directly reached out his hand and pulled her into his embrace. She had been taking exams recently, so he had to restrain himself. The two of them rarely had any intimacy, and it had been very uncomfortable to restrain himself.
When Song Fengwan woke up after sleeping for a while, the Korean drama was still playing, but she didn’t know what was going on in the plot now.
“What happened in the drama?” She sat up straight and stretched slightly.
Fu Chen licked his cheek with the tip of his tongue. After a few seconds, he said, “Going… to bed.”
Song Fengwan was dumbfounded. “What?”
“The male and female protagonists confessed their feelings to each other and looked at each other for four seconds. The female protagonist then kissed him in slow motion before the male protagonist pounced on her. After the two of them returned home, they entered the house and started undressing. They rolled from the living room to the bedroom…”
Song Fengwan reached out her hand and tugged at her hair. I didn’t ask him to say this!!
“They did it once in the morning and at night.”
Song Fengwan raised her eyebrows and blushed slightly.
“They didn’t film the details. This drama didn’t go too far on this,” Fu Chen commented objectively.
Song Fengwan covered her face. I didn’t ask him about this! “I’m going back to my room to sleep…”
As soon as she left the sofa, Fu Chen suddenly said…
“I’m free tonight. Let’s study that book.”
Song Fengwan’s body stiffened, and she cursed inwardly. Old hooligan.

On another side…
Duan Linbai wasn’t able to see, so after receiving the phone number, he asked a servant to save the number before dialing it.
Xu Jiamu had just finished writing her final papers for two subjects. She felt that she was losing her hair in large heaps and was really going to go bald. She specially bought a bottle of ginger hair-growth-boosting shampoo from the internet and was was.h.i.+ng her hair in her dormitory.
Just as the shampoo turned into foam, her phone rang.
She had just submitted her papers, so she thought that it was her teacher looking for her. She rinsed the foam off her hands and answered the call. “h.e.l.lo…”
“Hey.” Duan Linbai was sitting cross-legged on his bed and suddenly felt a little nervous. It was the first time he took the initiative to call a girl.
“Who are you?” Xu Jiamu couldn’t recognize his voice.
“I am Duan Linbai.”
Xu Jiamu’s fingers trembled, and her phone fell into the sink with a clatter. She hurriedly reached out to take the phone out. The foam got into her eyes, and the spicy ginger scent almost blinded her.
Duan Linbai, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
My phone cost more than three thousand yuan!
Duan Linbai, on the other end of the call, was also dumbfounded.
After I introduced myself, the phone hung up. What happened?
When he called her again, the line was busy. Doesn’t she want to chase me? Why isn’t she answering the phone? Is she planning to play hard to get with me?
Duan Linbai suddenly curled his lips into a smile, looking very evil. He seemed to have found a hint of joy within his boring life.
To use a very melodramatic sentence to describe this: Woman, you have successfully attracted my attention.
