161 A different Fu Jinchen
The top floor of the Fu Building presents the design of a spire. Absolute height for a wide field of view. The elevator door opened, Mu Liang came out with her bag, and a secretary was already waiting to take her out of the office in person.
Two black lacquered doors are facing them, heavy and oppressive. Mu Liang took a deep breath, and the secretary had already pushed the door open.
Huge offices, like small palaces. The floor-to-ceiling windows on the whole side, the sunlight was dazzling, Mu Liang instinctively narrowed his eyes, and turned his head to avoid the strong light.
The golden light reflected by the sea water overflowed, and behind the black desk in front of him, Fu Dongting was sitting precariously, his sharp eyes falling directly on the person who had just entered.
"Let's get out."
"Yes, Chairman." The secretary withdrew.
Mu Liang stood in front of the desk with lowered eyes, his expression calm. After she gradually got used to the scorching light on the other side, she slowly raised her head and looked at Fu Dongting at eye level.
"Say it!"
Fu Dongting's voice was very cold, and Mu Liang could hear the anger.
Sighing slightly, Mu Liang's delicate brows furrowed slightly, "This matter has nothing to do with me." β
"Unrelated?" Fu Dongting's restrained eyes moved, and the corners of his mouth hooked up sharply, "You told me in person that day that you wouldn't say half a word, but today's photos were published, why has nothing to do with you?!" β
"It's really irrelevant!"
The corners of Mu Liang's mouth were lightly pulled, and he replied loudly, "What I promised, I will definitely do it." β
"Humph!"
Fu Dongting snorted angrily, raised his hand and threw the newspaper on the table at her feet, "If it has nothing to do with you, then how can these photos be explained?" β
"I don't know." Mu Liang's face was ugly. She was also very puzzled by the origin of these photos.
"Mu Liangβ"
This is the first time Fu Dongting has jointly called her with a surname, and the anger in his tone is obvious, "You want to take revenge on the Fu family?" β
Get you back?!
Mu Liang's eyes sank instantly, and she stared at Fu Dongting's eyes, "If I wanted to take revenge on the Fu family, I would have done it a long time ago, do you have to wait until today?!" β
The anger in her heart surged, and she said in a deep voice: "Even if it is in front of my son, I will not do anything to the Fu family!" β
Hearing this, Fu Dongting's dark eyes flashed, as if he wanted to understand something.
"Si Shao, you can't go in!"
The secretary's exclamation sounded outside, and Mu Liang's dark eyes flashed.
Bump -
The next moment, Fu Jinchen pushed the door open and came in with a calm face, "What are you doing with her?" β
He asked in a tone of voice, and Fu Dongting immediately sank his face, "Is it your turn to talk to me like this?" β
Fu Jinchen's thin lips pursed slightly, and the handsome face standing in front of the desk was tense. Mu Liang saw that their father and son looked wrong, and was afraid of their conflict, so he had to take a step forward and grab Fu Jinchen's wrist, "Why are you here?" β
"Are you alright?" Fu Jinchen tilted his head, and his eyes fell on Mu Liang to look at him.
Mu Liang hurriedly shook his head, and said as usual: "It's okay." β
"Fu Jinchen, you are becoming more and more presumptuous!"
Fu Dongting was already on fire in his heart, but seeing that his son still had such an attitude, the anger in his heart was even worse, "Who let you break into my office like this?" Get the hell out of here! β
Mu Liang couldn't help but palpitate when he heard the roar of the sky. Why didn't the father and son talk well, they used to be tense when they spoke, but now they are even more-for-tat!
Hanging down at his side, his hands tightened, Fu Jinchen grabbed Mu Liang's wrist, and said angrily: "I don't care what you are looking for her, but please remember, she is my woman, please tell me anything about her!" β
"......" Mu Liang looked at the man beside him in a daze, unable to say a word.
Fu Dongting raised his eyebrows and looked at Fu Jinchen's deep eyes, as if he saw him decades ago. It's a pity that the man in front of him is far more courageous and domineering than he was at the beginning!
"Also," Fu Jinchen pursed his thin lips lightly, pointed to the newspaper on the ground, and said, "I came today to find out what is going on?" You owe me an account! β
When the words fell, Fu Jinchen clasped Mu Liang's wrist with his backhand, pulled her head and left without looking back.
In the blink of an eye, the man's figure swept by like a wind. The secretary stood in place, looked at the people who walked away, and asked, "Chairman, ......what do you think?"
Fu Dongting sighed heavily, but his face was a little better than before. He waved his hand and didn't speak.
The secretary understood this, hurriedly bent down to pick up the newspaper on the floor, put it on the desk again, and immediately turned to leave, and closed the door.
The man walked out of the Fu Mansion with a calm face, Mu Liang didn't have time to speak, and saw his gloomy face all the way. Not long after, the car stopped in that secluded sea.
It was a beach that belonged exclusively to Fu Jinchen.
After the car turned off, Fu Jinchen got out of the car, and Mu Liang unbuckled his seat belt and followed out.
"Fu Jinchen!"
Staring at his tense back, Mu Liang couldn't guess his thoughts. Especially seeing his gloomy eyes, it made her feel nervous for no reason.
"Why is my dad looking for you?"
Mu Liang carried the bag, his eyes staring at his toes, "There is a misunderstanding." β
"Misunderstanding?"
Fu Jinchen tilted his head, stared at the blue sea in front of him, and said in a low voice, "I'm not my father's own child!" β
There was a moment of blankness in his brain, Mu Liang's dull eyes moved, and he smiled very unkindly: "Poof-"
She bit her lip hard, but she couldn't hold back a smile. Emma, this man's imagination is so rich! It must be that I watched too many TV series!
"What are you laughing at?" Fu Jinchen's thin lips were pursed, and there was a slight anger in his eyes.
Ahem!
Mu Liang lightly lowered his voice, admitting that it was indeed too much to laugh out loud in the sad eyes of others, but ...... But she really couldn't help it!
"Fu Jinchen," Mu Liang bit his lip, and finally broke the gong again, "Give me a minute, I really can't hold on!" β
Then, Mu Liang turned her back to her body and covered her mouth with her hands, and she could only see her shaking shoulders. Hahahaha, oh my God, Fu Jinchen's expression just now was really ...... So cute!
Looking at her trembling shoulders, the look in Fu Jinchen's eyes became even darker. He pursed his thin lips lightly and said slowly: "Actually, I should have guessed a long time ago, since I was a child, he has been targeting me everywhere, and I don't like it, it turns out that this is the reason." β
Mu Liang was stuck in his throat in one breath, and he only felt that he couldn't go up or down. She rolled her eyes speechlessly, and finally turned around and glared at him fiercely, "! β
Raising his hand in front of his forehead, Mu Liang crossed his hands on his waist and said, "Fu Jinchen, your imagination is quite rich, it's a pity not to be a screenwriter!" β
"You ......" Fu Jinchen rubbed his forehead that had been nodded by her, and said in a muffled voice: "You beat me again?" β
Beat?
Mu Liang suddenly felt a flock of crows flying above his head, this man made a big fuss every time, she just pointed at him at most, and the distance between him and the fight was 108,000 miles!
The man seemed to guess what she was thinking, and couldn't help but speak, "Even if there has been skin-to-skin contact." β
"......" Mu Liang was speechless, anyway, when talking to him, she didn't have the upper hand.
After breathing a sigh of relief, the suppressed feeling in Fang Cai's heart dissipated. Mu Liang's expression calmed down, "Fu Jinchen, don't think nonsense, this matter has nothing to do with you." β
"That's related to Fu Huanyan?" Fu Jinchen's voice sank when he spoke again.
Mu Liang hesitated and nodded slowly. Now that the photos have been exposed, this matter will come out sooner or later, and she feels that Fu Jinchen should not be hidden.
"What's going on?" Fu Jinchen had a guess in his heart for a long time.
Shaking his head gloomily, Mu Liang didn't know the cause and effect. She told Fu Jinchen all the things that she inadvertently bumped into Fu Dongting in the teahouse that day, and even the strange man who came to her.
"Is there a picture of the man?" Fu Jinchen's handsome face had a gloomy expression.
Mu Liang's eyes rolled and said, "There should be a video." β
She hurriedly took out her mobile phone and instructed her assistant to find the surveillance video of the underground parking lot that day, and sent the video to Fu Jinchen's mailbox after finding it.
"Let's go." The man pulled Mu Liang, and the two got into the car again.
Suddenly, Fu Jinchen parked his car in front of a small two-story building. Mu Liang pushed the door down and saw the painted pattern outside the small building, and knew what the place was.
The door of the studio was unlocked, and Fu Jinchen easily pushed the door in. He pursed his lips and said helplessly: "When will this problem be changed?" β
Mu Liang followed behind him, and it was the first time he came to Fu Huanyan's studio.
The area of the studio is not small, but there are not many furnishings in it, basically all of them are drawing boards, brushes, and many paintings are placed on the wall in turn.
"Find your own place to sit." Fu Jinchen seemed to be familiar with the environment here, and he was not polite to Mu Liang.
Glancing at the messy sofa, Mu Liang suddenly smiled. The living habits of these sisters and brothers are really the same. Putting down the leather bag in his hand, Mu Liang put away the messy sofa and coffee table, and finally sat down.
"Fu Huanyan!"
Fu Jinchen pulled out a chair, turned the back of the chair forward, and sat down with his legs apart. He put his arm on the back of the chair at will, and shouted impatiently: "Fu Huanyan!" β
"What's it called!"
The people upstairs finally rang. Fu Huanyan wore a white T-shirt and a pair of jeans, and walked downstairs sleepily. She yawned as she walked and said, "What are you doing so early?" Do you understand how to disturb people's sleep?! β
She frowned and raised her head, but when she saw the person sitting on the sofa, she was suddenly surprised: "Liangliang? β
Fu Huanyan raised his feet and ran over, and said in surprise: "Why are you here?" β
"Come and see you." Mu Liang smiled shallowly.
Fu Huanyan blinked, looked at her, and then at Fu Jinchen, his mouth opened into an O-shape, "Oh, you two, you ......"
"It's not!"
Mu Liang interrupted her at the right time before she guessed, "We met by chance. β
Because he was afraid that Fu Huanyan would not believe it, Mu Liang also reached out and pushed the man sitting in the chair and asked him, "Did you say it?" β
Fu Jinchen's good-looking sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and he reluctantly responded: "Hmm." β
Fu Huanyan didn't buy Fu Jinchen's account, but she was really happy to see Mu Liang coming. I searched through the cabinets for a long time, but unfortunately she couldn't even find a pack of cookies.
"That," Fu Huanyan explained with an embarrassed expression, "In the past few days, I have rushed to hand over the painting and eaten everything I can eat." β
"Cut!"
Fu Jinchen chuckled, and pierced her very facelessly, "When have you ever had anything to eat here?" In addition to painting is painting, if it weren't for Xiang Bei's help, it is estimated that you would starve to death. β
"Fu Jinchen, you are looking for death!"
Fu Huanyan's angry voice sounded, Fu Jinchen ignored her roar, and still went his own way.
In the sofa here, Mu Liang quietly watched the picture of their sister and brother arguing, and his mood was surprisingly comfortable. In the Fu family before, she liked to watch them make trouble, which reminded her of Mu Yi, and she and Mu Yi were the same before.
It's just that the current Mu Yi is unfathomable. Between their sisters and brothers, they have long lost this intimacy.
"Liangliang ......" Fu Huanyan was defeated in a quarrel, and couldn't help but run to ask for help, "Let me tell you, Fu Laosi is lawless, and no one in this world can cure him except you!" β
Mu Liang's black eyes blinked, and he subconsciously raised his eyes, just in time to see Fu Jinchen's eyes. The moment they looked at each other, she only felt that her cheeks were flushed, and she looked away for a moment.
Because of the shyness that flashed on her cheeks, the corners of Fu Jinchen's tight lips rose a little.
After staying in the studio for a short time, Fu Jinchen's sharp eyes swept around, and after making sure that Fu Huanyan hadn't seen the morning report, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"When are you going to be home to see your mother?" Fu Huanyan tinkered for a long time, and finally made two cups of coffee.
Fu Jinchen pursed his thin lips lightly and ignored her. This kind of housework of the Fu family, Mu Liang is not good at interjecting, and only sits quietly on the side and sipps instant coffee.
The person in front of him was still in high spirits, and Fu Huanyan devoted almost all of his energy to painting. Such a girl who is ignorant of the world should have enjoyed this rare purity, but why, all those troubles of everything, always refuse to let go of anyone?!
"Fu Huanyan," Fu Jinchen held the coffee cup and his tone sank, "You haven't been home much recently." β
"Why?" Fu Huanyan frowned.
"No why." Fu Jinchen pursed his thin lips lightly, and tried to answer calmly, "Aren't you going to hurry to hand over the painting?" I met an old classmate the other day, he has a friend who opens a gallery abroad, I gave your information to others, this time you have to behave well! β
"Wow?"
Fu Huanyan didn't expect that she didn't ask Fu Jinchen for help before, but now she took the initiative to help him, "Dear brother, sister, thank you." β
Fu Jinchen immediately slapped her hand away and said, "Disgusting! β
"Ahh
Fu Huan's face was furious, and a new round of sister-brother war began again.
Mu Liang looked at them with a smile and gradually darkened his eyes.
Not long after, Fu Jinchen left with Mu Liang. Fu Huanyan stood on the side of the road to see him off, she grabbed Mu Liang and said, "Liangliang, when do you bring Guoguo with me, I miss him so much." β
"Okay," Mu Liang nodded, "Guoguo also said that she missed her aunt." β
"I know that our family has a conscience," Fu Huanyan narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully: "Compared to his old man, it is much stronger!" β
"Gone."
Fu Jinchen didn't bother to quarrel with her, reached out and dragged Mu Liang into the car, started the engine and left.
"Hey!"
Fu Huanyan stared at the exhaust fumes from the car, first very angry, and then laughed very happily. She has always hoped that Mu Liang and Fu Jinchen can get back together, how good it is to be close to the family!
On the way back, the corners of Fu Jinchen's mouth tightened, and his expression was dark. Mu Liang looked at his frowning brows and asked tentatively, "What are you going to do?" β
"Check!" A simple and clear word, but it is full of all Fu Jinchen's emotions.
"Fu Jinchen......" Mu Liang moved his mouth, and the emotions surging in his heart were complicated.
The man holds the steering wheel with both hands, and the tense side face is well-defined. His deep eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "She is my sister after all, I can't see her hurt!" β
Mu Liang lowered his eyes, and his eyes were inexplicably sour. She suddenly felt that Fu Jinchen still had half a sentence to say, it was not that he didn't just want to see Huan Yan get hurt, but he also couldn't see the Fu family get hurt!
In fact, this man's style of doing things seems arrogant and uninhibited on the surface, but deep down, he also hides all the softness.
Quietly looking away, Mu Liang's eyes stared at the scene flying outside the car window, and a certain emotion in his heart fluctuated in waves. Mu Liang five years ago only saw his unruly and ruthless side, but five years later, Mu Liang saw his tender and responsible side.
Parking the car outside the Song Mansion, Mu Liang took the bag and told him uneasily, "Fu Jinchen, don't act alone, if you find something, you must tell me." β
She bent down to stare at the man in the car and said, "Huan Yan is my friend, and I don't want to see her hurt either." β
Fu Jinchen pursed his lips, his deep eyes looked gentle. He nodded and said, "I see." β
Seeing his car leave, Mu Liang turned around and returned to the company. The assistant had already sent the video found in the parking lot, and Mu Liang had watched it several times, and the questions in his heart were lingering.
Near noon, the secretary pushed the door in and reminded, "Mr. Sheng, the driver has gone back to the villa to pick up your mother." β
Sheng Mingzhan turned off the computer, picked up his coat and prepared to go out, and the secretary handed over the prepared gifts.
Walking out of the office, Sheng Mingzhan didn't look good. The report about Fu Dongting was completely suppressed within a few hours. This kind of strength is really unusual, which shows how influential Fu Dongting is!
took out the phone in his pocket, Sheng Mingzhan dialed the phone.
Mu Liang saw the phone number and hesitated before connecting, "Hey." β
"Liangliang," Sheng Mingzhan pinched the car keys, walked in the direction of the elevator, and said tentatively: "We haven't eaten together for a long time, can we have lunch the day after tomorrow?" β
Last time, Mu Liang said that he wanted to calm down for a while, but it was not a way to escape. She really needs to talk to Sheng Mingzhan openly, there are still many questions to explain about between them and about Mu Guoguo.
"Okay, we'll see you the day after tomorrow."
didn't expect her to agree, Sheng Mingzhan was quite surprised. However, she is willing to meet, which means that the influence of those previous things in her heart is gradually shrinking.
Picking up the phone again, Sheng Mingzhan pursed his thin lips, "When will the wedding dress arrive?" β
The other party calculated the time and said truthfully: "It will take five days." β
"Five days?" Sheng Mingzhan sank his face, "I'll see you the day after tomorrow." β
"I'm afraid ...... day after tomorrow"
"No fear!" Sheng Mingzhan saw the open elevator door, and his voice was very cold, "If you can't see the wedding dress the day after tomorrow, then you just wait to close the door." β
Smack-
The man hung up the phone with a calm face and walked straight into the elevator. Coming downstairs, Sheng Mingzhan walked briskly to the parking lot, and the moment he rubbed shoulders, he swept something out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly stopped, "Uncle Yu?!" β
Yu Jian put his hands in his pockets, and was surrounded by people in the middle, and looked at him suspiciously, "Ming Zhan." β
"It's really you!" Sheng Mingzhan said with surprise, "Why didn't you tell me when you returned to China?" β
"I just came back." Yu Jian smiled and said softly, "There are a lot of things that need to be dealt with, and I haven't bothered to contact you yet." β
He raised his eyebrows and said with concern, "How is your father's health?" β
"Not so good." Sheng Mingzhan's eyes darkened.
Yu Jian sighed clearly, raised his hand and patted Sheng Mingzhan's shoulder, and said, "It's difficult for you to support the overall situation alone, I'll go back to see your father after a while." β
"Thank you, Uncle Yu." Sheng Mingzhan's tone was quite polite.
Someone came over to remind Yu Jian of something, he nodded, and said, "Ming Zhan, I still have something to do, I'll make an appointment another day." β
"Okay." Sheng Mingzhan stepped out of the way and saw Yu Jian walking away. In the United States, Yu Jian had a good relationship with his father, and the two of them knew each other very early.
Driving the car out of the parking lot, Sheng Mingzhan did not delay and came to the restaurant on time. This restaurant is close to the sea, and as long as you sit in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby, you can see the endless sea water.
Therefore, customers who come to this restaurant will not choose a private room, but sit by the window.
"Mr. Sheng, you've arrived." When the person in charge of the restaurant saw him coming, he personally came to greet him, and led the way in front of him, guiding him to his seat.
There are a lot of guests dining around, and almost every table is full. If it weren't for the advance booking, there would be no location at all.
From afar, Sheng Mingzhan saw his mother sitting on the sofa waving to him. He pursed his lips and smiled, and walked briskly forward.
There was a table on the side, and the woman sitting upright was familiar. When Shu Yunge saw Sheng Mingzhan coming over, he couldn't help but stand up and say hello: "Mr. Sheng, you also come here to eat?" β
Earlier, Sheng had a cooperative relationship with Mo's, and in recent years, Shu Yunge has adhered to Mo's Group, and everyone dare not underestimate her. Sheng Mingzhan smiled perfunctorily and said, "Accompany my mother." β
Following his gaze, Shu Yunge was slightly surprised and praised: "It's rare for Mr. Sheng to be so filial." β
"Mrs. Mo is polite." Sheng Mingzhan thanked him politely, and then left.
"Mom!"
Sheng Mingzhan sat opposite his mother and said softly: "You have been waiting for a long time?" β
"No," Mrs. Sheng was very happy to see her son, she stared at the woman just now, and said suspiciously, "Who is she?" β
"Partner." Sheng Mingzhan's answer was simple and concise, and he didn't waste much of his words. He asked his mother to come here for dinner today, and the most important reason was because of Mu Liang.
The waiter quickly brought the meal to the table, and Mrs. Sheng listened to her son's words, and her face gradually became gloomy, "Ming Zhan, this matter is not negotiable. If it's just Mu Liang, your father and I will reluctantly accept it for the sake of the Song family. But that kid, absolutely not! β
"Mom-"
Sheng Mingzhan frowned tightly, and said urgently: "Guoguo grew up beside me since childhood, and we get along very well. β
"That's not going to work either."
Mrs. Sheng pursed her lips, her face revealing a gloomy face, "Ming Zhan, you listen to your mother." If someone's son has a father, they are related by blood. β
"Isn't it okay if you are not related by blood?" Sheng Mingzhan's face suddenly turned cold.
Hearing this, Mrs. Sheng's expression immediately changed. She scrambled to her feet and walked away with a pale face.
"Mom!"
Sheng Mingzhan realized that his words were excessive, and stood up and wanted to chase after him, but his mother had already walked away without looking back, and the steps under her feet were even a little flustered.
Wow -
A waiter came over with hot soup, Sheng Mingzhan rushed over recklessly, the other party couldn't dodge, and a lot of the bowl of soup was spilled on Sheng Mingzhan's hands.
The hot soup spilled on Sheng Mingzhan's left wrist, and he pursed his lips to untie the watch and loosen the cuffs.
"Mr. Sheng!"
Shu Yunge happened to be sitting on the side, and hurriedly dried his napkin to help him dry it. She held a white napkin in her hand and wiped Sheng Mingzhan's wrist with quick movements, but inadvertently saw a semicircular scar on the inside of his wrist.
The scar?!
Shu Yunge was like being struck by lightning, and the wiping action was stunned in place.
"Thank you!" Sheng Mingzhan took the napkin in her hand and wiped it, took the things and left quickly.
"Waitβ"
After Shu Yunge came back to his senses, he strode out, but he could only see Sheng Mingzhan's car flashing by. She stood on the side of the road with a changed face, her eyes covered with mist.
She won't admit that scar, could it be that Sheng Mingzhan is a stone?!
