Heartwarming Aristocratic Marriage: Influential Master's Wife-Chasing Strategy

Chapter 171: The Third Master Is Too Scheming, Kabedoning Wanwan

As soon as Fu Chen got on the plane, he received the latest news.

“Third Master, Ms. Qiao has decided to hold a press conference tonight at eight.” When Shi Fang received the news, he glanced at the person beside him.

Fu Chen had already opened a copy of the Great Bright Mantra, his expression gentle and calm. “Yes, the time is fine. Almost everyone will be there.”

“I wonder how much evidence she has. I’m just afraid that she might suffer a double loss if she doesn’t handle it properly.” The way Qiao Aiyun behaved and dealt with matters in the past had been too gentle. Shi Fang couldn’t help worrying.

“It’s not that Aunt Yun doesn’t have enough means. It’s just that she has never used them. She considers too many issues when she does things. If she’s like Song Jingren and ignores human relations, have you thought about Wanwan’s current situation?”

Shi Fang was stunned.

Her parents were getting divorced, and there were all kinds of conflicts. In the end, the child would be injured.

“Yan Wangchuan beat up Song Jingren previously, but he didn’t pursue the matter. However, he definitely can’t take this lying down. He must have been holding back for a big move.

“He actually dared to publicize the photo. That’s Mr. Yan on it. Isn’t he afraid that the Yan family will pursue this?” Shi Fang couldn’t understand this.

Fu Chen turned a page of the scripture. “He used some tricks to inform the Yan family. Yan Wangchuan had no choice but to return to Nanjiang first.

“Now that this involves an extramarital affair, if Yan Wangchuan doesn’t appear personally, no one will know who that man is. First impressions make the strongest impact. Everyone will naturally think that there’s something fishy between the two of them.

“Besides, the two of them used to be engaged. Yan Wangchuan’s private life has been very clean all these years. If he jumps out, it will be a blow to him and the Yan family. I’m afraid his mother won’t agree.”

Shi Fang had not thought this deeply.

He had even thought that Song Jingren was simply bold, but now, he was just courting death.

After Fu Chen’s analysis, he realized that Song Jingren had planned everything for this day.

“Therefore, once Mr. Yan jumps out, everyone will think that he and Ms. Qiao are having an affair. I’m afraid they won’t be able to explain themselves regardless of what they say.

“Damn, what a dirty trick.

“Now, even Miss Song is involved. There are even people who suspect her birth and are f*cking helping him clear his name. They say that the two of them pursued their own interests, so they are the same.”

Fu Chen looked down at the Buddhist scripture. He had realized Song Jingren’s tricks early on.

“Besides, the conventional way of thinking is that it’s easy to forgive a man for having an affair. It seems to be a matter of course. However, once a woman has an affair, she should be drowned in a pig cage[1] and struck by lightning.

“Third Master, you don’t understand. Netizens nowadays speak so offensively.

“F*ck, Song Jingren deserves to die.”

…

Fu Chen sighed.?Can’t he stop?

“Sir, I’m sorry. Please turn off your phone.” The air stewardess came over to remind him. “Please speak softly. Thank you for your cooperation.”

Only then did Shi Fang stop talking. Fu Chen felt that the world was peaceful.

If Qian Jiang’s right arm hadn’t been injured a few days ago, and his bones hadn’t fractured slightly, so he needed to recuperate, he wouldn’t have taken Shi Fang out with him.

A man with one mouth was noisier than 500 ducks.

After the incidents of ‘Jade Hall of Spring’s Fake Goods’ and ‘Qiao Aiyun’s Adultery’, all of Yuncheng was in an uproar.

Since Qiao Aiyun had announced that she would be holding a press conference, the crowd was in high spirits during the cold winter. They were all looking forward to the following events, and many netizens were waiting for her statement.

The Jade Hall of Spring was a jade store founded by the Qiao family. It was a century-old brand.

A few decades ago, the country had experienced a war and had just regained peace. During the establishment of diplomatic relations with foreign countries, the Qiao family had even given out its goods as gifts from the nation. In addition, Old Qiao’s lifetime achievements had been dug up. The entire Qiao family was on the cusp of a storm.

“The Qiao family has truly fallen. They are an embarrassment for selling fake goods.”

“We don’t know the truth. Let’s not jump to conclusions yet.”

“It’s not unjustified that the Jade Hall of Spring has been going downhill all these years.”

…

The aggressive comments about Qiao Aiyun were simply unsightly.

Even words like ‘slut’ started appearing frequently.

“I’ll keep an eye on the press conference for you. Go pick up your daughter. But there are a lot of reporters outside. Leave from the back and avoid them.” Geng Ying was gathering the materials.

At this press conference, it was either she died, or he died.

This directly involved the subsequent divorce proceedings.

She had to take this seriously.

“I understand. Sorry to trouble you.” Qiao Aiyun bowed to her before turning to leave.

Geng Ying stared at her back for a long time before sighing helplessly.

Because she had helped her file a divorce lawsuit, she had already received threats from various sources. If it had been another lawyer, they would have probably retreated from this difficult situation.

As a woman herself, Geng Ying had decided to take on the case after reading the information Qiao Aiyun had provided. Through trials and tribulations, and the numerous schemes executed in the face of riches and honor, the ugliest side of human nature was thoroughly exposed.

Qiao Aiyun was about to leave through the back door when she realized that even the back door was blocked by reporters.

Just as she was feeling anxious, she received a call from the Fu family.

“Hello, Old Master Fu.” Upon receiving a call from her elder, Qiao Aiyun was so embarrassed that she didn’t know how to face him.

“I saw the news.”

Normally, he wouldn’t pay attention to such news. But since it involved the Qiao family, he definitely took more notice.

“I let Dad down and caused his lifelong efforts to be insulted grievously.” Her voice was trembling.

This time, Song Jingren really stepped on her bottom line with every move.

“This can’t be blamed on you. Someone deliberately set this up, and it’s impossible to guard against it.” Everything had happened too coincidentally. Old Master Fu had seen through the key issue at a glance.

“Yes.”

“I’ve gotten Third Son to go over and help. At the very least, you don’t have to worry about Wanwan. I’ll get Third Son to take care of her. If you need any help, I can get Second Son and his wife to help.”

“No need. I can do this myself. Thank you very much.” Upon hearing that Song Fengwan had Fu Chen to take care of her, Qiao Aiyun felt more relieved. “Thank you so much for helping me at this time.”

Old Master Fu smiled. “Without your father back then, the Fu family would not be where we are today. This is nothing to us.

“Your personality isn’t like your father’s at all. He was swift and decisive. If he were here, that brat probably wouldn’t survive through tonight.”

Hearing him tease her father, Qiao Aiyun couldn’t help laughing.

If her father heard this, he would probably jump out of his coffin to argue with him.

“Okay, you go ahead with your things. I won’t disturb you anymore.” Old Master Fu hung up.

Everyone knew how to add flowers to a brocade[2]. But it was the rarest thing to offer help when someone was in need.

Qiao Aiyun’s eyes reddened.?It’s Fu Chen again. I really owe him too much.

However, she was not worried anymore now that he was going to pick up Wanwan.

***

Fu family’s old residence…

Old Madam Fu was beside Old Master Fu, listening to him finish the call.

“That Song fellow is really a good-for-nothing.” Old Madam Fu was extremely angry. “I’ve never seen someone bully others like this. He doesn’t even let his own daughter off. He’s really wicked.”

“It’s fine. Let’s wait for the news quietly.”

“Thankfully, Third Son informed us. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have known that such an important thing happened.”

Beijing was thousands of miles away from Yuncheng, and the two elders didn’t use the internet, so some news was naturally inaccessible to them.

“I hope Third Son can make it in time to help.” Old Madam Fu sighed.

Old Master Fu rubbed his phone. “Wife, don’t you think Third Son is too concerned about the Song family?

“Other than his few friends, he doesn’t even care if something happens to our own family’s juniors. According to his personality, even if he received any news, he should have ignored it.

“He even went there personally. I keep feeling that something is amiss.”

When Old Madam Fu heard this, she exploded.

“How can you say that about your son? Is Third Son such a cold and heartless person in your eyes?”

“You even said that something is amiss? I think you’re just too idle. Look at the situation now. How can you think that there’s something amiss with Third Son?

“The fact is that something has indeed happened to the Qiao family. Is it wrong for him to inform us? Our family is indebted to Old Qiao. Is there a problem with helping the Qiao family? You’re even suspicious of your own son. Did you not take your medicine today? You old fool.”

Old Master Fu was rendered speechless by her retorts.

He was just saying what he was thinking. Her scowl and cold eyes made it look like she wanted to eat him.

Too scary.

I can’t afford to offend her.

“I’m going to take my medicine.” He got up and left the sofa.

Old Madam Fu harrumphed coldly. “That’s your son. What kind of person do you think he is? Your political enemy? Something is amiss? Could he have other motives for helping?

“Song Jingren is an utterly heartless scumbag. No one can stand those despicable things he has done.

“It’s entirely normal for him to help. If he turns a blind eye to their plight today, I won’t acknowledge him as my son anymore.”

…

Old Master Fu poured some water and took some antihypertensive medicine. He tried his best to reduce his presence.

In the future, when Fu Chen and Song Fengwan’s relationship was exposed…

Only then did the two elders realize that this damn Fu Chen had schemed against them and used them as a pretext many times for the convenience of carrying out his ‘secret rendezvous’ with the young lady.

In the name of helping, he went to see Song Fengwan in an open and just manner.

So when the matter erupted, Old Master Fu nearly fainted from anger.

He was dating, yet he used him as a cover. His legendary reputation was thoroughly ruined by his own son.

***

When Song Fengwan finished taking the test for gouache in the afternoon and walked out of the examination hall, the sky was already gray and bleak from the early darkness in winter.

Cold winds blew through the dark gray sky. The chill made people feel uncomfortable.

She put on her scarf and hat and went to the restroom before slowly walking out.

Many examinees were still discussing their performance in the examination just now.

Song Fengwan turned on her phone. Before she could check the unread messages, Fu Chen called.

He really knew how to choose the right time.

“Hello—” Song Fengwan’s fingers were red from the freezing cold. The air conditioning in the examination hall couldn’t provide heating, and the wind had even been blowing through the windows. She had nearly frozen to death.

“Your exam is over?”

“Yeah, I’m already out.” She had gone to the restroom just now and needed to line up, which had taken up a lot of time. Many examinees had already walked out of the school gates. She managed to avoid the peak traffic flow.

“Where are you now?”

They were all students, and it was winter too. They were all tightly covered up, so one could not tell who was who.

“I haven’t reached the entrance yet. What’s wrong?” Song Fengwan lowered her head and wiped her nose. Clear water was running from the tip of her nose due to the cold. She lowered her head and searched for a tissue to wipe her nose…

“You caught a cold?”

Song Fengwan was stunned. She subconsciously looked up and saw Fu Chen standing at the school gates. He was tall and stood out from the crowd.

Her heart warmed. She had just taken two steps toward him when Fu Chen walked toward her even faster. Before she could react, he pulled her into his embrace.

“Ah—” Song Fengwan was greatly shocked.?He’s crazy!

Qiao Aiyun had promised to pick her up. If she saw her like this, she would be finished.

“What are you doing? Let go of me quickly.” Song Fengwan reached out to push him away, her voice cracking from anxiety.

Fu Chen let out a low laugh and rubbed his head against her wool hat. “What are you afraid of? Aunt Yun has something to do and can’t come, so I came to pick you up.”

“My mom…”

“You were so scared that your face turned pale.” Fu Chen let go of her, pulled her scarf up an inch, and held her hand as they walked out.

“Third Master…” There were still many people around them. When had she ever held hands with someone in public? She was flustered.

“It’s Third Brother.”

Song Fengwan’s face heated up slightly as she looked around timidly, afraid that she would meet someone she knew.?Why is he still paying attention to things like how I address him at this time?

“Your hand is very cold. I’ll warm it up for you.” Fu Chen held her small hand, and his fingers rubbed the back of her hand gently.

Song Fengwan wanted to pull her hand out, but it was too warm. She couldn’t bear to let go, so she let him hold her hand.

When they passed by the school gates, they met quite a number of reporters. Song Fengwan only had two eyes exposed. When they saw Fu Chen, they took a few more looks. After all, such a good-looking person was rare. They didn’t notice that the person beside him was the person they were waiting for.

Song Fengwan called Qiao Aiyun to confirm that she was busy and had entrusted her to Fu Chen before leaving with him at ease.

Fu Chen chuckled.?Did this silly girl think I was a human trafficker?

Qiao Aiyun had been afraid that she would be too tired after the examination and had booked a room for two nights, so her things were still in the hotel.

Song Fengwan and Fu Chen naturally returned to the hotel first.

Just as she took out the room card to open the door and insert it into the indentation that controlled the power within the room…

Suddenly, she was pushed in by a strong force. The room card fell, and the lights that had just turned on were all extinguished…

Song Fengwan cried out in alarm instinctively as she was pinned against the wall.

Bang!?The door closed.
