Chapter 150 Don’t Be So Persistent
Fu Ruoshi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and kept a low profile.
After the food was served, Fu Yuehan kept concentrating on eating.
Fu Ruoshi tried to talk to Wen Zhixia several times, but Wen Zhixia obviously didn't want to pay attention to him. As soon as he opened his mouth, Wen Zhixia went to talk to Fu Yuehan.
"Fu Yuehan, Third Uncle asked you to reply to his message." Fu Ruoshi tried to drive her away. "He said he has a toothache and asked you to buy him a bottle of white wine and bring it back."
"Ah? Didn't my dad just have a tooth pulled?" Fu Yuehan subconsciously glanced at his phone.
There was no message from her father, all messages were sent to her by Fu Ruoshi.
【I'm talking to your sister-in-law】
[You go]
[I really need to tell your sister-in-law something important, please leave]
[I prepared that tripe for your sister-in-law. Who told you to eat it?]
......
Fu Yuehan couldn't stand the bombardment of WeChat messages from his cousin.
"Um, sister-in-law, no, Zhixia," she stood up in a dilemma, "My dad asked me to go back, so I'm leaving now. Let's meet next time."
Wen Zhixia wanted to pull her, but failed. Fu Yuehan had already left with a broken heart.
The atmosphere was strangely awkward; all I could hear was the gurgling sound of the hot pot and the surrounding noise.
This makes Wen Zhixia want to leave too.
Fu Ruoshi saw that she was about to leave, and quickly turned the clear soup pot towards Wen Zhixia, "There are still so many dishes. If you leave, I can't finish it all by myself."
Wen Zhixia thought that this was absolutely impossible. As soon as I left, within a minute of you sitting there, a bunch of little boys and girls would sit opposite you and keep you company.
"You haven't had stomachache recently, have you?" Fu Ruoshi saw that she was silent and flattered her by cooking some vegetables. "Eat some yam and less bean sprouts. They are hard to digest."
Seeing the distinguished Mr. Fu carefully preparing food for her, Wen Zhixia felt complicated and her desire to leave was shaken.
"Have you finished eating the food I bought for you last time? I'll buy more for you after you finish eating."
“Not yet… No need to buy…”
"Oh......"
Until the end of the meal, the two of them had not said more than ten sentences.
After Fu Ruoshi paid the bill, he saw Wen Zhixia holding her phone and trying to get a taxi, so he said, "Let me take you there. You can't get a taxi at this time."
Wen Zhixia was about to say she could get a call when the screen suddenly showed that there were more than a hundred people in line ahead of her...
"No need," she stood up. "I just ate too much tonight. I'll walk back."
Fu Ruoshi's legs went weak after hearing this.
He absolutely didn't dare let Wen Zhixia walk home alone.
During the day, he found the girl whose eye had been blinded by Zhao Xiaoning.
The girl's name was Fang Fang. After learning about Fu Ruoshi's identity and purpose, she told him everything about how Zhao Xiaoning had harassed her by voice, attacked her physically, and threatened her family.
Just as he thought, Zhao Xiaoning took a fancy to Fang Fang at a drinking party and kept pestering her, wanting to date her. After being rejected, he became furious and dragged Fang Fang into the car in broad daylight in the busy city center and beat her up.
The Zhao family was at its peak back then. With their power, killing an ordinary family was easier than crushing an ant. Fang Fang could only consider herself unlucky and went to another place under an assumed name.
"It just so happens that I want to take a walk too," he said to Wen Zhixia, "It's on the way. I'll walk to the affiliated hospital and then take a taxi back to the villa."
Wen Zhixia looked at him in surprise.
He had already humbled himself to the point of being in the dust. Even though he was now half a stranger to her, it was difficult for Wen Zhixia to say no.
On this brightly lit CBD street with tall buildings, Wen Zhixia and Fu Ruoshi walked one after the other through the crowd, heading home in silence.
Wen Zhixia walked all the way to the overpass and saw the sign for the Affiliated Hospital. She turned around and said to Fu Ruoshi, "Thank you, Mr. Fu. I can just drop you off here. I can walk the rest of the way by myself."
Fu Ruoshi was five steps away from her. After hearing this, he stepped up the steps and came to her. "It's not far. I'll accompany you home."
The overpass was deserted, with cars and horses flowing under the bridge. The warm yellow light shone on the two people, making it look a bit desolate.
Wen Zhixia felt a little cold and couldn't help but cross her arms.
Fu Ruoshi was quick to take off his coat and put it on her shoulders.
His coat was soaked with his body temperature, and Wen Zhixia was instantly surrounded by this warmth. She felt inexplicably safe.
But she was only intoxicated by this tenderness for a few seconds before she quickly pulled away and returned the coat to him.
"Fu Ruoshi, do you think that what you are doing now is called being persistent?"
Fu Ruoshi's heart rumbled.
The most feared thing happened.
She still thought of herself as the kind of playboy who would cling to women and do anything for them.
But now he was afraid that if he lost his concentration for a moment, Zhao Xiaoning's men would attack again, cutting the brake lines, poisoning her, or making her disappear silently. They could all do it.
He couldn't say it out loud, "Wife, Zhao Xiaoning's grandson is going to fucking kill you. I'm so scared. I'll help you kill them first. Don't go to work and come home with me to hide."
He didn't want her to see that dark world, he wanted to protect her innocence.
"I swear, Wen Zhixia, I really don't mean to pester you."
Wen Zhixia didn't know this. She said, "I don't have your strong appeal, and I can't mobilize all the resources around me to pursue the woman you want. I can't refuse your pursuit, but if you keep pestering me like this, what will happen even if you get me?"
Fu Ruoshi listened to her cold words and felt so frustrated that he wanted to jump off the bridge and put an end to it all.
Being rejected by the person he likes and being accused of being a stalker, the arrogant and proud Mr. Fu really doesn't want to live anymore.
"Ancestor, can you please trust me for once? I just want to protect your safety, and I've lost all my credibility in your eyes???"
"The brake failure was an accident." Wen Zhixia thought he was afraid of the car. "The insurance company said it was an engine failure. Don't let your imagination run wild."
It was Fu Ruoshi who asked the insurance company to say this.
"Okay, okay, then just treat me as a persistent pest," Fu Ruoshi was at a loss for words. He scratched his hair in annoyance, "Then I'll walk with you to the underpass, okay? I can't jump off the bridge now, can I?"
After getting off the bridge, the residential area is not far away.
It was not until he saw Wen Zhixia go upstairs and her figure appear in the kitchen that Fu Ruoshi finally felt willing to leave after smoking a cigarette downstairs.
During this period, several TV series invested by Han Zhuojun's investment company have become very popular. He held a celebration banquet, which happened to be at Fu Ruoshi's Mayfair Hotel.
That afternoon, the hotel entrance was very busy. Han Zhuojun had just sent two shareholders in when he saw a green Lamborghini driving over.
"Boss Han!" Zhao Xiaoning hugged Xu Hui and came down to greet Han Zhuojun. "I came here uninvited. You won't think I'm shameless, will you?"
Seeing Zhao Xiaoning coming, Han Zhuojun felt something was wrong.
Didn’t you tell Xu Hui not to call him over?
Before this, Fu Ruoshi said that he would come later. After all, he was a shareholder of the hotel and a childhood friend, so it was only natural for him to come and show his support.
Thinking that the two men were not getting along, Han Zhuojun prepared to send a message to Fu Ruoshi, asking him to retreat.
"How could that be, Mr. Zhao?" He said with a forced smile, "I'm so happy!"
"Xiao Han," Xu Hui leaned forward and asked, "What about Ruoshi? Will he come?"
