Chapter 104 : Mr. is Angry

Mu Qianqian’s voice was delicate and soft, “I—I shouldn’t have lied to you.”

“And?”

“I… I shouldn’t have come here alone.”

Fu Sichan was almost amused by her frustration.

Turning around, he saw the young girl huddled in the corner, looking extremely frightened.

The coldness in Fu Sichan’s eyes grew sharper.

“What are you hiding so far away for? Afraid I’ll eat you?”

This little girl, did she have any sense of responsibility?

Mu Qianqian was so frightened she was nearly in tears, curling up like a scared quail and inching a few centimeters closer to him.

Her demeanor made it seem as though he were some kind of monstrous beast.

She seemed to want to avoid him at all costs.

Fu Sichan’s gaze was disdainful, and his anger was on the verge of exploding.

The veins on his forehead pulsed as he decisively pulled the girl over to him.

“Lie down.”

Before Mu Qianqian could react, she was placed across his lap, instinctively clutching his leg.

In the next moment, a loud “smack” echoed.

A firm slap landed on her bottom.

Mu Qianqian was immediately stunned, startled into a hiccup.

Her tears were instantly repressed by the shock.

“Mr.…”

Before she could finish her soft words, she was slapped several times on the butt.

Mu Qianqian lay on the man’s legs, the fresh scent of cedar invaded her nostrils, and the strong male hormones surrounded her.

Because she was upside down and because of gravity, all the blood in her body seemed to rush to her head.

Her face suddenly turned red.

“Mr. let me get up.”

Mu Qianqian struggled and tried to climb up from his legs.

But Fu Sichan held her down with one hand.

“If you dare to move again, the punishment will be doubled.”

Mu Qianqian’s cheeks were burning hot, and she just wanted to escape from his clutches as soon as possible.

As a result, her struggle was rewarded with slaps raining down on her round buttocks.

Mu Qianqian bit her lower lip, wishing she could disappear right there and then.

She begged for mercy in a soft voice, “Mr. I know I was wrong.”

“What’s wrong?”

Mu Qianqian sniffed and answered pitifully.

“I shouldn’t have kept it from you.”

Fu Sichan was quite satisfied with this answer.

“Go on.”

“I—I’ll tell you everything in the future.”

Fu Sichan gave a noncommittal “mm” in response.

Mu Qianqian was still not allowed to move freely.

She thought for a moment and, trying to placate him, said “In the future, I’ll tell my husband everything.”

Saying this made her feel intensely embarrassed.

But she couldn’t stay in this position forever.

Fu Sichan’s lips curled into a slight smile.

The little girl had some emotional intelligence, knowing to say flattering things to placate him.

“If this happens again, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Hmm?”

Mu Qianqian quickly promised, “I won’t dare again!”

“Mr. please spare me.”

Her breath was warm against his skin.

Fu Sichan wasn’t like some aloof scholar, how could he remain unmoved?

His throat tightened as he gazed at her with intense, brooding eyes, nearly devouring her with his stare.

But this wasn’t the right time.

He had to let her go, for now.

Mu Qianqian regained her freedom and quickly sat up, covering her flushed cheeks with her hands.

Her little heart pounded rapidly.

Fu Sichan looked at her with a cold, disdainful gaze, his thin lips parting.

“Next time, it won’t be through clothes.”

Mu Qianqian’s eyes widened in shock.

How could Mr. be like this!

He—he was so wicked!

Mu Qianqian stamped her foot, covering her face with her hands in humiliation.

If she were really “punished” like this by Mr, she felt she might want to die.

……

Assistant Wang ran over and whispered a few words in Fu Sichan’s ear.

Fu Sichan narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly and said, “Got it.”

The car slowly left the county and returned to Bei City.

On the way, Mu Qianqian explained the whole situation to Fu Sichan.

“They tricked me, saying my mom had a terminal illness and was dying, so I came back to see her. But when I got home, they wanted my second uncle to send me to the old hometown. I don’t understand why they’re doing this.”

What benefits could this bring to the Mu family?

Did they hate her so much that they wanted to send her to the mountains and make her live a hard life?

Fu Sichan’s expression was cold, and he said, “I’ll handle this.”

This matter might not be that simple.

Why would the Mu family act this way?

Unless… someone was directing them.

Mu Qianqian thought for a moment and advised:

“Mr. let it go. I don’t want to trouble you.”

After all, Mr. was just an ordinary office worker and didn’t need to be involved in these issues.

As long as she was more cautious in the future and ignored any news from the Mu family, she should be fine.

“They want to send you to a remote, impoverished place, and you want to just let it go?”

Mu Qianqian was worried, “But I’m afraid of implicating you. They have nothing to lose, and getting involved could be troublesome.”

Fu Sichan tapped her forehead twice, “Don’t worry so much. Trust your husband. Leave these matters to me.”

“If everything needs you to worry about, then what’s the point of having a husband?”

Fu Sichan, a powerful man in the business world, had a very assertive personality.

So, he would domineeringly protect his loved ones, whether they liked it or not.

Once targeted by such a man, escaping became impossible.

“Alright.”

Mu Qianqian was soft-hearted and couldn’t resist him.

She and Fu Sichan complemented each other well, with her gentleness balancing his firmness.

……

The Mu family thought the matter had been settled quietly.

However, that afternoon, their fast-food restaurant was shut down by the Food Supervision Bureau!

“Why are you closing our restaurant? On what grounds?”

Mu Father and Mu Mother were anxious and argued with the officials.

This was their only source of income!

Now that the elder son is incapacitated and the younger one is still in school, the whole family relies on this fast-food restaurant for income!

If the restaurant is shut down, what will they do? Live on the winds from the northwest?

“Your restaurant does not meet hygiene standards, uses substandard and harmful ingredients. According to the law, we have the right to shut down your restaurant.”

The inspectors entered the kitchen and immediately saw rats crawling all over the floor, various types of gutter oil, and dirty dishes piled together.

The stench was overwhelming.

“You serve such things to your customers?”

Mu Father tried to stop them, but the inspectors had already found many prohibited food additives in the kitchen.

With this evidence, there was no way their restaurant could continue operating!

The fast-food restaurant was shut down, and Mu Father and Mu Mother were frantically seeking help, like ants on a hot pan.

Just then, another piece of bad news arrived!

The younger son, Mu Chengyao, had been caught cheating on an exam and bullying female classmates!

The school had directly expelled him!

After these consecutive blows, Mu Mother fainted with her legs stiffened.

The entire Mu family was enveloped in deep despair.

Lying in bed, Mu Chenghui said with hollow eyes,

“It’s him, it’s his revenge…”

“Elder brother, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Mu Chenghui laughed maniacally, as if he had lost his mind.

“I’m not talking nonsense! It’s that man’s revenge. He wants to destroy the Mu family!”
