Mr. Fu’s Wife Reincarnated - Chapter 32

Chapter 32: Legs Went Numb

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Capital University was one of the top universities in the world.

The place that nurtured all kinds of talents in the world and one of the most famous places in the world, was now covered in a scandal.

The speech of the wealthy businessman in the capital was a mess, and it instantly spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital. The police, lawyers, and people from the public relations department of the Dongting Group entered the office in waves, then left in waves. They intersected and walked without any gaps.

At this moment, in the police station, the police sat in front of the troublemaker and had a silent confrontation.

“Did anyone put you up to this?”

“No.”

Sla,— The cop slammed his hand on the tabletop. “Tell the truth.”

“No matter how many times you ask, it won’t work.” The man leaned back in his chair. In the old master’s words, a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

Guan Qing stared at him and looked him up and down. In the end, his gaze landed on his shoes. A pair of white sneakers were covered in dust. The leather surface of the shoes was cracked, and the sides of the shoes were covered in glue.

Guan Qing’s gaze slowly moved up and landed on the man’s face. He smiled faintly and said, “Someone in your family is hospitalized, right?”

The man shuddered, but quickly the man returned to normal. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Really?” Guan Qing smiled and reached into his pocket. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and looked at the police. “Can I smoke here?”

Of course, the police agreed. They had heard of Fu Xiting’s reputation in the capital. This matter had caused an uproar and could be said to be the focus of the entire city. If they did not find out the root of the matter soon, they would not be able to report it. It was obvious that the special assistant of this rich businessman had discovered something when they had not found any clues.

They did not dare to ask for too much from him. They could not wait to solve the case as soon as possible.

“You smell like disinfectant.” Guan Qing lit a cigarette and raised his hand to take a puff. “Although you’ve dressed up properly, your shoes betrayed you. The marks on your shoes can’t be made by ordinary things.”

“You’re short of money? Someone gave you a huge sum of money to do it?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” That person was still as steady as a mountain, looking extremely strong.

“It’s fine if you don’t know, but if I find out, the person in the hospital will probably be dead.”

Guan Qing laughed coldly. He reached out and tapped the cigarette ash in the ashtray on the table.

He made ablatant threat.

However, this person was still unmoved.

…..

In the afternoon, Guan Qing returned to the company.

Fu Xiting had just come out of the meeting room after meeting with the foreign businessmen.

“President Fu, the culprit is very stubborn. We can’t force him to open up. We’ve already gotten someone to get rid of his connections.”

Fu Xitingen said, “Find out as soon as possible.”

“The principal wants to apologize to you in person,” Guan Qing said.

“No need. It’s not his problem.”

“Where’s Jiang Yi?”

Fu Xiting had just answered Guan Qing’s question when he suddenly remembered Jiang Yi’s existence.

Guan Qing was puzzled. “Miss Jiang? I don’t know.”

He had just returned from his work and did not know of Jiang Yi’s existence.

“Let Zhuang Jing in.”

“Where’s Miss Jiang?”

“Miss Jiang has always been in the reception room.”

Zhuang Jing had only received Jiang Yi at the beginning and hadn’t seen her since. Although he had said at the beginning that Miss Jiang could call him if she needed anything, she didn’t seem to have any needs.

Jiang Yi stayed in Fu Xiting’s private reception room for a full four hours before Fu Xiting remembered her existence.

Fu Xiting stood at the door of the reception room. Before he pushed the door open and entered, he saw Jiang Yi placing the book on the coffee table. She was sitting in front of him and engrossed in reading.

Fu Xiting thought for a moment and knocked on the door.

“Have you eaten?”

Jiang Yi looked up at Fu Xiting, who was standing at the door. The man’s black suit had long disappeared, leaving only a white shirt.

“No.”

Fu Xiting looked at the time. It was almost past one.

The people in the secretary’s office were probably so busy that they forgot about Jiang Yi’s existence.

“Let’s go!”

Fu Xiting did not say anything else. He turned around and went to the office to get his coat. When he came out, he saw that Jiang Yi was still sitting in front of the coffee table.

“You don’t want to eat? Or you haven’t finished reading?”

“Neither.” Jiang Yi shook his head.

“What is it then?” Fu Xiting asked for the first time.

What was it about Jiang Yi?

She probably felt a little embarrassed that she disliked Fu Xiting so much.

However, at this moment, facing Fu Xiting’s question, she had no choice but to answer.

Hence, Jiang Yi sighed. “My legs are numb.”

Fu Xiting was speechless.

The man was silent for a moment, then walked in.

He extended a hand to Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi looked at his palm and fell silent.

She seemed to be thinking if she should hand her palm over.

As for Fu Xiting, he had always been an extremely patient hunter.

He was never worried that the fish would not take the bait.

As for Jiang Yi?

She did not know why he had such thoughts.

If it was the old Jiang Yi, she wouldn’t have such a deep sense of morality. As long as this person could help her resolve her current predicament, this person was her god. A short-lived god was also a god.

After turning around, they would stab each other with knives but she would not hesitate at all.

Both parties fell silent and looked at each other. After a moment, Jiang Yi handed over her hand.

Fu Xiting pulled her up.

In the Dongting Group’s canteen, there was a private room specially reserved for Fu Xiting.

The two of them had a casual meal inside.

“In a while, Fang Chi will send you to a styling studio. I’ll pick you up at six.”

“Will it take that long?” Jiang Yi asked.

Fu Xiting smiled faintly. “Do you know the story of your parents?”

“It’s said that Mr. Jiang strongly opposed your parents’ marriage back then. In order to marry your mother, your father had to establish his own family. A few years ago, there was a saying in the capital that your mother was a woman from Jiangnan who specialized in seducing people’s souls.”

“The Capital University’s campus belle was also your mother. Miss Jiang, look at yourself.”

Fu Xiting’s words carried a hint of mockery. He probably meant that she was not worthy of being the school belle’s daughter.

She was barefaced and wore a pair of canvas shoes.

Or perhaps, he was mocking her for being slovenly. Either way, it was not a good thing.

“Mr. Fu knows a lot about my family.”

Fu Xiting curled his lips and did not answer Jiang Yi’s question directly. Instead, he called Fang Chi in.

Then, he turned around and left.

There were only a few famous styling studios in the capital.

What Jiang Yi did not expect was that the place Fu Xiting mentioned was her usual place.

As soon as she walked in, she felt a sense of familiarity.

The more she walked into the familiar environment, the stronger the feeling of wanting to know the truth.

External forces pushed her to frantically seek the truth.

“Vivian’s guest. Please notify her,” Fang Chi said the director’s name as soon as he entered.
