Chapter 105 : Mrs. Fu

“Qianqian has gotten involved with a wealthy man, and we’ve been so vicious to her. Now that man is taking revenge on our behalf!”

“We were too foolish. If we had treated Qianqian better, she wouldn’t have been so ruthless towards us!”

“Hahaha, evil will be punished, We brought this upon ourselves!”

After saying these words, Mu Chenghui began to lose his senses, muttering some incoherent, crazy talk.

He had already been traumatized from the previous beating, and this latest shock caused his mental state to collapse completely.

Mu Mother quickly pinched him, “Elder brother, elder brother, what’s wrong with you?”

“Oh no, why is our family so unlucky? Ever since that little wench Qianqian got into trouble, nothing has gone right! I knew she was a disaster!”

“Enough!”

Mu Father slammed the table with force.

“Isn’t there enough chaos at home already? Stop the noise and quickly give Chenghui some medication.”

At that moment, Mu Father’s phone rang, it was his younger brother calling.

As soon as the call was answered, Mu Father’s second brother’s anxious voice came through.

“Elder brother, do you have any money at home? Can you lend me some?”

“What’s happened?”

“My construction project ran into problems, the car was seized, and now I can’t pay off the debts. I’m about to be jailed!”

Mu Father’s younger brother was a contractor who relied on taking on projects to make a living.

He had invested almost all of his assets into this project, but the project failed to meet quality standards and was suddenly stopped by the authorities.

Not only did he lose his investment, but he also faced huge compensation claims!

Where would he find that much money?

Mu Father couldn’t even afford his own water pipe anymore. “We don’t have any money at home either.”

“Elder brother, don’t act poor with your own flesh and blood. If you don’t give up the money, your brother will be forced to death!”

“I’m not acting poor. We’ve had trouble at home and can’t come up with the money.”

“Fine. If you won’t help me, don’t blame me for revealing that matter from before! Few people know about Qianqian’s background, right…”

Forced into a corner, Mu Father’s second brother was resorting to threats.

Mu Chenggong shot up from his seat, his eyes flashing with alarm.

If that matter was exposed, it would be the end of him!

“Second brother, don’t panic. Let me think of a solution.”

“It’s not your problem, so of course you’re not in a hurry! Hurry and get me some money. I can’t hold out much longer!”

Mu Chenggong’s head was buzzing with anger.

His own family was dealing with consecutive disasters, not faring much better than his younger brother!

But since his younger brother was adamant about forcing him to provide money, Mu Chenggong had no choice but to endure the pain and cough up the funds.

Otherwise, he couldn’t let his brother reveal that sensitive matter, could he?

“I’ll have your sister-in-law get the money right away and send it to you!”

“Get more, and hurry up to rescue me!”

“Understood. Get as much as you can.”

Hanging up the phone, Mu Chenggong slammed his phone down and overturned the table.

The already unfortunate Mu family was facing even more troubles.

How were they supposed to carry on like this?

……

“Mr. Fu, the matter has been taken care of.”

Assistant Wang responded respectfully.

Fu Sichan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, taking in the view of Bei City.

This was the city center, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, and the most advanced and massive office buildings in sight all belonged to the Fu Group.

A family at Mu’s level wouldn’t even be allowed into these buildings.

“Hmm, well done.” Fu Sichan said calmly.

His tone was so detached, as if he was not discussing the destruction of two families but merely a trivial matter.

To those at the top of the pyramid, the Mu family… was indeed nothing more than an ant.

Fu Sichan only needed to give a command, he didn’t need to get his hands dirty.

His subordinates would take care of it for him.

“There is one thing I’m not sure whether I should tell you.”

“What is it?”

Assistant Wang cautiously said, “We checked the surveillance footage and found that a strange woman visited the Mu family a while ago, carrying a black handbag. When she left, the handbag was missing, so it’s likely still at the Mu family’s place.”

“Have you figured out who she is?”

“Not yet. The woman was very cautious. She changed cars midway, and it was a fake license plate car, so we can’t trace her.”

Fu Sichan coldly ordered, “Continue the investigation.”

A person who acts so carefully must have something to hide.

“Mr. Fu, should we inform Miss Mu about this?”

Fu Sichan said coldly, “No need.”

The young lady was timid; he didn’t want to scare her.

“Understood. I won’t inform Miss Mu.”

Just as Assistant Wang was about to leave, Fu Sichan suddenly furrowed his brow and called him back.

“Wait.”

Assistant Wang stood attentively, “Mr. Fu, do you have any other instructions?”

“What did you call her?”

“Miss Mu.”

Assistant Wang was puzzled.

Fu Sichan’s tone turned icy, with an imposing aura.

“What should you be calling her?”

Assistant Wang, trembling and covered in cold sweat, carefully considered how to respond to his superior’s thoughts.

“Should I address her as ‘Mrs. Fu’?”

“Yet you still called her incorrectly.”

Assistant Wang nearly retorted in frustration.

He clearly remembered Mr. Fu’s previous instructions.

“She isn’t considered a part of the Fu family yet. Don’t let me hear that title again.”

Had Mr. Fu already forgotten his own words so quickly?

Fu Sichan cast a cold glance at him. “Do you have any objections?”

Assistant Wang quickly swallowed his protest, forcing a stiff smile. “No, none at all.”

How dare he have objections?

Mr. Fu pays his salary, he is like a deity.

He couldn’t afford to anger this deity, he’d better comply obediently.

……

Ye Wanqing had arranged to meet with Lu Yunbei.

“Mr. Lu, I heard that you have a female secretary and that you’re quite close with her?”

Ye Wanqing was direct and to the point.

Lu Yunbei’s expression remained unruffled. “I have five secretaries, three men and two women. Which one are you referring to?”

“Well… naturally the one you’re closest to.”

Lu Yunbei frowned slightly.

“I only have professional interactions with them, no personal connections, so I wouldn’t say we’re particularly close.”

Ye Wanqing observed his expression, finding no sign of guilt.

But what did Lu Yunxiang’s words mean?

Had she misunderstood the relationship between Mr. Lu and his secretary, or was she being deliberately misled?

Why would Lu Yunxiang try to sow discord between her and Mr. Lu?

“Miss Ye, what’s the matter?”

Ye Wanqing’s eyes flickered. “It’s nothing much. I just wanted to ask. Mr. Lu, is Qianqian your missing sister?”

“Although it hasn’t been confirmed yet, my intuition tells me that she should be Yaoyao.”

Ye Wanqing raised an eyebrow. “Not confirmed yet? That’s simple, just compare Qianqian’s DNA with Mr. Lu’s.”

“I’ve already asked Lu Yunxiang to help with that.”

Ye Wanqing’s heart skipped a beat.

Her intuition told her that this Miss Lu was not ordinary.

“Mr. Lu, let me help with this matter. I’m close with Qianqian, so getting her DNA will be easy.”
