Chapter 448: Exposed Relations.h.i.+p?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Winter in Beijing came early. The sun had just risen, but when it shone on some people, they didn’t feel warm…
Instead, they felt even colder.
Qiao Xiyan stood in the cold sun and cold wind and gripped his phone tightly, his knuckles turning white. Actually, he wasn’t against Song Fengwan dating, but she had stayed out the entire night.
He suddenly thought that since Song Fengwan had been living on campus for such a long time, this kind of situation might have happened countless times.
Although he was her older brother, he was almost ten years older, so he was also considered a parent. He always felt that such actions were too bold.
Even though she had just enrolled in school and was dating someone, it had only been two months, yet she had already developed to the situation of spending the night outside?
“Um, Mr…. Mr. Qiao?” Hu Xinyue knew that she had said something wrong, and her voice was trembling.
F*ck!
Wanwan will definitely kill me later.
Miao Yating was still confused. What’s going on this early in the morning?
“Who is that person?” Qiao Xiyan forced himself to calm down.
He had stayed in the capital for a long time this time, but he had actually not found anything. She had hidden it quite deeply.
He wanted to see which wild brat was so bold as to seduce his sister without anyone noticing and even sleep with her.
Qiao Xiyan had always felt that Song Fengwan was still a child. In a relations.h.i.+p, holding hands was fine. But if she went further, he couldn’t accept it at the moment.
“Mr. Qiao, Wanwan…” Hu Xinyue’s mind was blank.
Qiao Xiyan was restraining his voice, seeming a little gloomy and scary. After all, Hu Xinyue was still a child, so she was about to cry from fright.
“Or do you want to say that she’s in the dormitory now?” Qiao Xiyan chuckled.
“I…”
“If you want to say that she’s sick and can’t come down, then get her to answer the phone.” At this moment, Qiao Xiyan was very certain that Song Fengwan was definitely not in the dormitory!
He recalled how the girl a.s.sured him that she would go back to her dorm room and that her roommates were all asleep. She had most likely lied to him. She had definitely fooled around with that wild brat.
He and his father hadn’t left yet, but she was already so impatient?
How bold.
“Mr. Qiao…” Hu Xinyue was really about to cry.
“You know who her boyfriend is, right?”
Hu Xinyue couldn’t hide this matter anymore. She gritted her teeth. “Don’t… don’t you know him?” When they entered the school, they had even eaten together. She felt that they usually had interactions.
Another bucket of cold water poured down.
“What did you just say?”
Qiao Xiyan opened the car door, threw the breakfast and hangover medicine into it, took out a cigarette from his pocket, opened his mouth, put it in his mouth, lit the cigarette, and took a deep breath…
“You said I know him?”
Qiao Xiyan only knew a few people in the capital, and all kinds of people flashed through his mind. The first person he thought of was Duan Linbai because Song Fengwan always called him Big Brother Duan, and it sounded very sweet.
Moreover, this person’s style was bold and unrestrained. Could it be that…
He pinched his cigarette. So Wanwan daringly spent the night outside when she’s still a student? His fingertips trembled, and the ashes fell to the ground.
“Mr. Qiao, you…” Hu Xinyue’s voice was sobbing. Don’t ask anymore. She really wanted to bang her head against a wall and die now.
“You don’t have to say who he is. You just have to tell me if his name is three syllables.” Qiao Xiyan also knew that it might be a little difficult for her to say it. After all, she was Song Fengwan’s friend.
Hu Xinyue gritted her teeth. “No.”
With this elimination, there was basically no one else…
He knew the man. He was from Beijing and was single. He should have a close relations.h.i.+p with Song Fengwan. They were together last night…
Qiao Xiyan’s fingers trembled, and the cigarette b.u.t.t fell.
Fu Chen!
A gust of cold wind blew past. Qiao Xiyan was already scared out of his wits. These two people?
Impossible…
The wild man is Fu Chen?
But then he thought about it carefully. Song Fengwan had stayed at Fu Chen’s place for a few months, and Fu Chen took good care of her. When the Song family had an accident, he had even appeared in Yuncheng, and he had also been there for the Nanjiang incident…
Actually, if he thought about it carefully, in the past year or so, whenever anything major happened around Song Fengwan, Fu Chen was almost always around.
There were some things that couldn’t be investigated deeply. But once you thought about it carefully, you would discover too many clues.
But how could these two people…
How old is Fu Chen?!
He’s Fu Yuxiu’s uncle. Besides, with his ability and status, he can have any woman he wants. Why would he be with Wanwan…
“Mr. Qiao, actually…” Hu Xinyue still wanted to explain, but she hesitated and didn’t know what to say.
“Sorry to disturb you,” Qiao Xiyan said and hung up. He bent down to pick up the cigarette b.u.t.t on the ground, raised his arm, and threw it into the trash can about a meter away.
It was accurate.
… with a hint of ferocity.
After he got into his car, he was still a little dizzy.
He remembered that Qiao Aiyun had even praised Fu Chen in front of him, saying how impressive to have such achievements at his age, how low-key and considerate he was, and how much he cared about her…
Qiao Xiyan’s hands slammed on the steering wheel.
It’s absolutely a conspiracy!
At this moment, he recalled the first time he had met Fu Chen. Old Master Fu had suggested letting Song Fengwan stay at his place, but he had looked unwilling. At this moment, Qiao Xiyan was even angrier. The two of them have definitely been secretly dating for a long time.
The Fu family probably doesn’t know either. They’ve been hiding it from everyone and pretending not to be that close to each other.
But they’ve already developed to such a stage in private.
Song Fengwan was young, and Fu Chen had been in society for a long time. He was famous for being good at scheming and manipulating people’s hearts. He was also famous for being formidable. Song Fengwan was afraid of him at the start and didn’t even want to stay at his house.
Qiao Xiyan’s first thought was: Fu Chen abducted my sister.
When he thought about how he had personally sent his sister to Yunjin Prime Manor and even asked Fu Chen last night to bring his sister back to her dormitory…
This fellow is impressive. He actually sent her straight to his bed!
At this moment, Qiao Xiyan’s mind was in a mess, and he found it difficult to accept the relations.h.i.+p between the two of them. If Second Master Fu and his family knew about their relations.h.i.+p, what would happen?
He took out his cigarette in frustration and was about to light one when his phone vibrated. “h.e.l.lo, Dad.”
“After you see Wanwan, bring her here directly. After dinner, send her back to the school before we go home.” Qiao w.a.n.gbei had had a long chat with Old Master Fu last night and stayed overnight in the old Fu residence.
“Hurry up. I still have to go back and pack.
“We chatted all night. My head still hurts a little now. Wanwan should be up by now.”
Qiao Xiyan took a deep breath. There was no way he could hide this matter from his father at this moment. Moreover, what Fu Chen had done wasn’t right!
“Dad, are you still at the old Fu residence?”
“Yes, I just ate. I’m waiting for you to pick me up.” Qiao w.a.n.gbei hadn’t slept the whole night, and his eyes were bloodshot.
“I’ll be right there. I have something to tell you. Are Grandma Fu and Grandpa Fu there?”
He could already foresee that if this matter was exposed, not to mention what outsiders would think, just the Fu family would be in an uproar.
“Yes.”
“I’ll be there in fifteen minutes.”
“Wait, did you pick Wanwan up…”
Before Qiao w.a.n.gbei could finish speaking, the phone was hung up.
“Is Wanwan coming over?” Old Madam Fu was completely unaware of what was about to happen. “I’ve packed some specialties from Beijing for you. Bring them to your car later.”
“You’re too polite.” Qiao w.a.n.gbei smiled.
But he was scolding Qiao Xiyan inwardly. This brat is really too daring. He actually hung up on me?
When Qiao Xiyan thought of the two elders of the Fu family, he felt even more upset. Song Fengwan was still calling them grandpa and grandma now, and these two people were looking after her like she was their biological granddaughter.
She had transitioned from a granddaughter-in-law to a granddaughter, and now she had jumped straight to a daughter-in-law!
Logically speaking, Song Fengwan should call him uncle.
What are these two doing?
At this moment, Qiao Xiyan didn’t understand at all. When love came, it had nothing to do with age or seniority… It was unstoppable!
***
After Qiao Xiyan hung up on Hu Xinyue, she sat on the bed with a face full of despair.
“Xinyue, what happened to you?” When Miao Yating saw that she was in a daze, she thought that something had happened to her. She even climbed out of bed and lay beside her. “Yueyue, are you alright? Say something. Don’t scare me.”
“Yating, I might have harmed Wanwan.”
“What are you talking about?”
Hu Xinyue briefly told her what had happened.
“Actually, her third brother is pretty good. According to what you said, he knows her cousin, and they’ve even eaten together. It shouldn’t be a big deal.
“Perhaps it’s good that you’ve exposed the fact that their families don’t know about their relations.h.i.+p yet. It must not be easy to tell their families about their relations.h.i.+p.
“Since both their families know each other, and they’re so close, what could happen? Don’t worry.”
Hu Xinyue wanted to call Song Fengwan to inform her of this situation, but she couldn’t get through to her phone. She was so anxious that her eyes were red.
“Yating, I remember Wanwan telling me before that she had a fiancé. Now, her boyfriend is her ex-fiancé’s uncle…”
Hu Xinyue suddenly remembered this matter. Previously, she had thought that Song Fengwan was definitely joking with her. Now that she knew about her background, it seemed normal that she had an engagement.
“What fiancé?” Miao Yating had never known about this.
“At the time, you hadn’t returned to the dorm yet. We talked about it unintentionally, and she told me it as if she was joking. At the time, I thought that it was f*cking TV. How could it be possible? Don’t you think so?”
Miao Yating was dumbfounded. “The uncle of her ex-fiancé…”
What kind of messy relations.h.i.+p is this?
“At the time, I thought she was lying to me. This matter is most likely true. F*ck, let me die!”
Song Fengwan’s phone didn’t seem to be in a service area, so she could get through to her no matter what. This made her go crazy. “Why isn’t she answering her phone at a time like this? What exactly is she doing?!”
***
At this moment, Qiao Xiyan’s car was slowly driving to the old Fu residence. Along the way, he was also thinking about whether he should tell his father and the two Fu elders about this.
But was it possible to hide this kind of thing?
Since the two of them had already developed to the point of spending the night together, this relations.h.i.+p didn’t start overnight. He remembered that Song Fengwan had tried her best to come to Beijing to study. Back then, she had said it nicely. What did she mean by ‘for her grandfather’? She was playing the emotional card.
Now that he thought about it…
If the two of them had gotten together long ago, she might have come for Fu Chen.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Perhaps when Song Fengwan was in high school, they…
At the time, she was still underage. How could Fu Chen dare to lay his hands on a child?
Seriously.
The car stopped at the entrance of the old Fu residence. Old Master Fu was having his morning exercise in the courtyard. When he saw him get out of the car, he even waved at him enthusiastically.
Old Master Fu is already eighty years old, yet Fu Chen found him an eighteen-year-old daughter-in-law?
Qiao Xiyan’s head hurt even more.
***
At this moment, in Yunjin Prime Manor…
Song Fengwan had just woken up. She had eaten lunch with Qiao w.a.n.gbei yesterday, so she wasn’t in a hurry at the moment. She took a quick shower, put on her clothes, and went downstairs to eat.
The marks Fu Chen had left yesterday were all on her chest and body. It was winter now, so she was wearing more clothes and could cover some of them. She wasn’t afraid of revealing anything.
Yunjin Prime Manor wasn’t in the city center, and it was a little far away, so her phone had no signal. She only noticed that no messages came, so she left her phone upstairs to charge for a while.
When she went downstairs, Fu Chen was copying scriptures in the small study.
Ink, sandalwood, Xuan paper, incense burner, opera…
“What are you listening to today?” Song Fengwan walked to his side and pointed at the old gramophone.
“‘The Gathering of Heroes’. It’s about the Three Kingdoms period.” Fu Chen tilted his head and looked at her. “Why don’t you sleep a little more? I’ll wake you up at eight, and I can send you back at nine.”
“I can’t sleep.” Song Fengwan raised her hand and looked at the Buddhist scripture he was copying. Amitabha Pure Land Rebirth Mantra?
There really is such a thing as a rebirth mantra.
Song Fengwan casually grabbed a book from his shelf and read it. Then she heard this Peking opera suddenly sing:
“…Kongming! I must kill Cao Cao this time. Only then can the hatred in my heart disappear… If I don’t kill him, I swear I won’t be human anymore…”
Song Fengwan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this.. She had an ominous feeling for some reason.
