Chapter 393: A Heavy Blow
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Fu Sinian’s simple sentence caused an uproar.
“He really doesn’t know because I bit her.”
Xia Yunong was so frightened that her face turned pale, and her entire body was trembling. Why does this person talk in parts? He just admitted that they spent the night together. Why didn’t he mention the bite mark then? Must he slap my face at this time?
At this moment, Ning Fan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was dumbfounded, his pupils dilated, and even his ears rang for a moment. He looked at Yu Manxi with a surprised expression. How exactly did this girl hook up with Fu Sinian?
He and Fu Sinian had lived in the same compound, but their relationship was very ordinary.
They didn’t play together when they were children. Since Ning Fan could remember, his parents had always compared him to Fu Sinian. After graduating, Fu Sinian had set up his own studio. Perhaps he didn’t earn as much money as him, but he had won many awards and pursued different things.
When Ning Fan found out that he lived opposite Yu Manxi, he was surprised, but he more or less understood Fu Sinian a little. He was an IT geek devoted to his career, nocturnal, and not good at interacting with others.
Now, many people lived in commercial buildings, and it was normal for some neighbors not to see each other for a few years.
How did they get together?
The mysterious boyfriend she’s been hiding is Fu Sinian?
My god, let me die!
There’s too much excitement today.
Ning Fan suddenly remembered that when he visited the Fu family for Lunar New Year’s greetings, he had asked Fu Sinian to take care of Yu Manxi.
At the time, Fu Sinian had even glared at him fiercely.
The two of them must have hooked up a long time ago. He’s already taking care of her even on the bed. What else can he do?
Yu Manxi, you f*cking hid it too well. You didn’t even reveal anything about such a big matter. Are you trying to scare me to death?
When Song Fengwan saw the person in question arrive, she thought that there would be another good show. But she didn’t expect this person to look so grieved and distraught the moment he entered. He looked as though he wanted to bang his head against the wall and die.
What’s going to happen now?
Xia Yunong didn’t expect Yu Manxi’s relationship with Fu Sinian to be so close. Her mind buzzed, and she muttered, “Impossible. She and Ning Fan definitely…
“She’s a two-timing mistress and a broken shoe. She…”
All the evidence she thought she had against her now seemed like a joke. Instead, it had helped Yu Manxi.
Ning Fan also came back to his senses at this moment. He turned around and waved his hand.
Slap! A crisp slap landed on her face.
It was like a clap of thunder, crisp and terrifying.
“Xia Yunong, we broke up a long time ago, and I made the reason very clear. We parted on good terms. Why did you drag my friend into it?!
“Yu Manxi and I are just ordinary friends. I treat her as my younger sister. What mistress who stole your man? Your thoughts are too dirty.”
Xia Yunong reached out her hand to cover her face, and tears welled up in her eyes. Clearly, she didn’t expect Ning Fan to hit her directly.
“Even if I have something with her, what right do you have to criticize her as an ex-girlfriend? You’re really such a busybody. We dated for more than a year. Didn’t I give you enough? Don’t push your luck.
“You even dare to spread rumors about me. Who gave you the guts?”
Most importantly, it involves the Fu family. How embarrassing.
Ning Fan’s words contained a lot of information.
Gave a lot?
There had long been rumors online that Xia Yunong had a sugar daddy. There were not many people with the surname Ning in Beijing. Ning Fan had started a small business by himself and was well-known in Beijing, so there were quite a number of people who knew him.
Just as the atmosphere was tense, Fu Sinian suddenly said, “There’s nothing between you and her in the first place. There’s no if.”
Dai Yunqing reached out to cover his face.
Who exactly did he inherit his true personality from? Why is he still fussing about this at a time like this?
He’s so foolish.
“How can there still be pure love between a man and a woman in this world?” Now that the person involved had come out to clarify, Xia Yunong had no choice but to keep defending herself.
“You care so much about her, even more than you care about me, your girlfriend.
“Do you dare to swear that you don’t have any thoughts of overstepping the boundaries with her?”
Ning Fan sneered.
“You know why I broke up with you. I can tolerate it when you act up a little normally, but you can’t always be like this. You’re paranoid all the time. We dated, but you weren’t everything to me.
“I’ve known her for a lot longer than you. Should I give up everything for you and have you as the center of my life? Is this true love?
“If I have any thoughts about her, I’m not a f*cking man!”
His words were not only for Xia Yunong but also for the Fu family.
People forming relationships with each other depended on many factors. It wasn’t that just because this girl was beautiful that everyone liked her. Everyone liked different types of girls, and Yu Manxi wasn’t really Ning Fan’s type.
Actually, there was nothing great about Xia Yunong. In addition, she was high-maintenance. For a time, Ning Fan felt that this kind of coquettish girl who occasionally knew how to act adorable was pretty cute, so he had started dating her.
He had wanted to find a clingy woman who would rely on him and make him feel accomplished. Yu Manxi was too self-reliant and independent, which was not what he wanted at all.
He didn’t have that feeling from the start, and he didn’t think in that direction later either.
Ning Fan had already said this, so the onlookers also knew that the show was about to end.
Xia Yunong had clearly made things up out of nothing and was pestering her endlessly.
“She, she…” Xia Yunong pointed at Yu Manxi. “How can she not have a relationship with you…”
Some thoughts were deeply ingrained in her mind, and she found it difficult to accept the truth for a moment.
“Little Yu is currently in a relationship with my son. In your eyes, isn’t she just a woman who wants to rely on a man to climb up the social ladder?” Dai Yunqing said slowly.
“Since she’s already in the good graces of our Fu family, is there still a need for her to get entangled with Ning Fan?
“Besides, when our Fu family is choosing a wife, when has it ever been the turn of an outsider like you to say anything? Young lady, you are young but really arrogant. I’ve never seen such a brazen lunatic in my life.”
Everyone outside had been watching the drama. The plot had all kinds of twists and turns, making it dizzying to see.
No one noticed that it was the Fu family standing in front of them.
Their family was famous, but they were also very far from ordinary people’s lives. So it was normal that they had never seen them before.
There were many families with the surname Fu in the capital, but only one family dared to call themselves the Fu family.
Old Master Fu’s family.
Fu Shinan worked as an official outside Beijing. If people didn’t pay attention to politics often, they would naturally not be familiar with his face. Dai Yunqing followed her husband and was also out of Beijing all year round. Especially in the past ten years, she had almost never appeared in public in the capital.
“Host Yu’s boyfriend is from the Fu family. Why would she f*ck cheat on him? She’s not blind. This man is tall and handsome. She has such a boyfriend, yet she’s still messing around with Ning Fan?”
“Isn’t the Ning family supported by Old Master Fu? Their weight is still different.”
“She’s an idiot. She didn’t even know who Host Yu’s boyfriend was before rushing over. The man you treasure isn’t enough in front of the Fu family.”
…
Old Master Fu had a great reputation, and the three sons and one daughter of the Fu family were all very outstanding. Everyone deified this family. In their hearts, the Fu family was unreachable.
Being able to interact with the Fu family and become the daughter-in-law of the Fu family was the luck of three lifetimes.
Who would still care about the Ning family?
Ning Fan reached out to support his forehead. His head hurt terribly. Okay, I admit that I’m a little worse than Fu Sinian.
But it’s not as tragic as the comparison between fish eyes and pearls. These people really know how to spout nonsense and directly press me to the ground to step on me.
“Today is the first time we’ve met Little Yu. You took these groundless photos and spread false rumors. I’ll naturally get my lawyer to deal with these matters. Remember to receive the lawyer’s letter.” Dai Yunqing’s smile was gentle, but her words were like needles.
One by one, each word pierced Xia Yunong’s heart.
Xia Yunong knew very well that she was completely doomed this time.
Her legs were weak and trembling as she looked at Yu Manxi not far away. Her gaze was resentful and vicious. What kind of dogshit luck does this woman have to be able to get close to the Fu family?
Fu Chen raised his hand to signal Qian Jiang and Shi Fang. “What are you waiting for? Throw her out.”
Xia Yunong knew that her end was coming. The Fu and Ning families wouldn’t let her off. Since she didn’t succeed in this matter, the woman from the He family would definitely not help her.
She felt as if her entire being was stuck in a swamp of despair, and she couldn’t break free at all.
Her vision darkened, and she seemed to be wrapped in despair.
Qian Jiang directly raised his hands and dragged her out. His expression was cold, as if he was carrying out some trash.
When the onlookers at the door saw the people in the room, they all retreated and didn’t dare to move closer. Shi Fang closed the door.
The police officers near the district knew that there was a dispute and rushed over to take a look at the situation. When they arrived, they saw Xia Yunong being kicked out of the restaurant.
Qian Jiang clapped his hands as if he had been contaminated with something dirty.
A group of people instantly gathered at the side and started taking photos and videos of Xia Yunong. She was in a daze and couldn’t care less about her image at this moment.
I’m doomed…
Utterly doomed.
***
Beijing, He residence…
A woman wrapped in a towel had just come out of the bath. She picked up a glass of red wine on the table, sat on the sofa, and picked up her phone.
Before Xia Yunong set off, she had sent her a message to assure her that nothing would go wrong this time.
During the time she was in the bath, the matter should be settled.
When she turned on her phone, the headlines that appeared were:
[Xia Yunong slandered Yu Manxi and was slapped in the face.]
[Yu Manxi and the Fu Family.]
[Yu Manxi does have a boyfriend, and she has already met his parents. The other party is the eldest grandson of the Fu family in Beijing.]
She gripped the wine glass in her hand tightly and slowly clicked on the news.
The photos and videos on the internet had already been all deleted. They were all written reports, and the internet was full of information about Xia Yunong creating rumors and harming herself.
Even Ning Fan’s company had clearly stated that Ning Fan and Xia Yunong had already ended their relationship a few months ago and that the two of them had long stopped contacting each other.
The most ruthless one was Duan Linbai jumping out at this moment.
[I’ve known Little Yu for a long time. Her boyfriend is my good friend. When did she become a third party? Nowadays, there’s really no cost involved in spreading rumors. She even caused trouble at a critical moment when they were meeting his parents. Can you please ban this kind of bad artist?]
There was even a rather helpless-looking emoji.
This Weibo post was forwarded more than tens of thousands of times, and there were more than a hundred thousand comments.
They were all supporting Yu Manxi.
Meanwhile, Xia Yunong’s dark secrets were gradually dug out. She had been Ning Fan’s girlfriend in the past, so many people in the circle had given her some face. Many people had seen things with their eyes, but they didn’t dare to say them back then.
Now, everyone was kicking a person who was down. Acting like a diva, using body substitutes and all kinds of video and image editing, abusing assistants, and so on…
In an instant, all her dirt erupted like an explosion, making people unable to take it all in.
The Fu family… The woman tightened her grip on her wine glass. No wonder she helped the Fu family clarify before. So there’s such a relationship?
Yu Manxi really has some tricks up her sleeve.
Of all people, why does it have to be the Fu family? Are you deliberately going against our family to embarrass us?
Xia Yunong is also a good-for-nothing. How can she be so careless when investigating someone and miss such an important matter. She deserves to die.
***
On the other side…
Because Xia Yunong had caused a ruckus, many media reporters rushed to the Banquet Restaurant. They couldn’t stay here any longer, so everyone found a place to sit for a while.
Yu Manxi hadn’t expected to cause so much trouble for the Fu family on their first meeting, and she felt apologetic from the bottom of her heart. But other than apologizing, she only kept her head lowered.
Ning Fan felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles. Even now, he still couldn’t understand how the two of them had hooked up.
Song Fengwan sat at the side and sipped her tea quietly, seemingly having no presence at all.
“Little Yu…”
“Uncle, Auntie, I’m really sorry,” Yu Manxi apologized again.
“This has nothing to do with you. You’re also a victim. You don’t have to keep apologizing to us,” Dai Yunqing said gently.
“I…” Yu Manxi still felt sorry. When she wanted to apologize again, Fu Shinan suddenly spoke.
“It’s not your fault. You don’t have to do this!” His tone was cold and somewhat intimidating, instantly scaring Yu Manxi into silence.
“There’s something I’ve been wanting to ask you.” Dai Yunqing coughed twice and took a sip of hot tea.
Yu Manxi felt uneasy. What does she want to ask? “Auntie, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.”
“Have you two been sexually intimate?”
“Huh?” Yu Manxi didn’t expect her to ask this and blushed.
“Don’t be shy. I’m just asking. I just didn’t expect…” Dai Yunqing looked at Fu Sinian at the side. “He’s usually quiet, but when he makes a move, he does it in a big way.”
“Auntie, it’s not what you think. Actually…”
“I’ve also been through it. I understand. There’s no need to explain.” Dai Yunqing smiled. “Young people nowadays move fast.”
Song Fengwan choked on her tea and coughed twice.
When the drama ended, Fu Chen was in charge of sending Song Fengwan back. Ning Fan wanted to return to the compound, so he naturally went with Fu Shinan and his wife. Before Fu Sinian left with Yu Manxi, Fu Shinan even patted his shoulder twice…
… and gave him a look.
Fu Sinian looked confused, not knowing what he was trying to say.
Until his father said, “You have to be gentle with girls. Even if you haven’t had a girlfriend before, you’re old, so you can’t be so anxious. Do you understand? Men need to know how to restrain and control their desires.”
Fu Sinian’s face turned cold.
Dad, what kind of person do you think I am?
What do you mean by old? I’m only in my early thirties, okay?
***
Old Fu residence…
When Fu Shinan and his wife returned home, the news about Fu Sinian and Yu Manxi had already spread to the old residence.
Today was Fu Sinian’s big day bringing his girlfriend to meet his parents. The two elders of the Fu family were specially waiting in the living room and had yet to rest.
“Dad, Mom, you’re not resting yet?” Dai Yunqing specially bought a roast duck from the restaurant. “There’s roast duck. Dad, do you want some?”
When Old Master Fu was young, he liked to eat roast duck with thick red oil sauce.
Just as he was about to speak, Old Madam Fu slapped him back with her words. “It’s too greasy, and it’s so late. What eating? Your lipids are already a little thick.”
“It’s fine to eat a little.” Dai Yunqing couldn’t help laughing when he saw Old Master Fu’s aggrieved expression.
“Is Sinian’s girlfriend really the host Little Yu?”
“Mom, you sure got the news fast.” Dai Yunqing placed the roast duck in the kitchen.
“Your father and I were watching TV just now. It was all broadcasted.” Old Madam Fu smiled. “I already thought that this child was not bad. She has a way with her words. She’s definitely not an ordinary woman.”
“She is indeed extraordinary.” Fu Shinan nodded.
“Seems like you’re quite satisfied too. How is she?” Old Madam Fu couldn’t wait.
“Although there was a small accident, she’s a good person.” Dai Yunqing had observed Yu Manxi’s reaction. Actually, people who were too soft-tempered were not suitable for the Fu family.
“That’s good. In that case, any accidents aren’t a big deal.” Old Madam Fu was focused on hugging her great-granddaughter.
“The most important thing is that they like each other. Dad, Mom, have you taken your medicine?”
“I was so focused on waiting for you to come back that I almost forgot about it.” After all, Old Madam Fu was old, and her memory was not as good as before.
The two Fu elders were both 80 years old, and they had a lot of minor physical problems. Dai Yunqing helped the two elders get their medicine and poured water for them.
“Yunqing, don’t be busy. Rest for a while.” Old Madam Fu’s heart warmed when she saw that she was still busy in her cheongsam.
“It’s fine.”
“If you two like her, you should pay a visit to the girl’s family another day.” After Old Madam Fu said this, the atmosphere in the living room suddenly changed.
Dai Yunqing still had doubts in her heart, but before she could say anything, Fu Shinan spoke.
“This girl is from the He family.”
Dai Yunqing’s fingers trembled, and she almost scalded herself with the boiling water. She hurriedly walked out of the kitchen. “Shinan, are you serious?”
“She’s the one who was abandoned to avoid family planning1 back then.”
The two Fu elders looked at each other. Everyone clearly knew about Yu Manxi’s life experience.
