”I can bathe myself!”
At the bathroom door, two people, one big and one small, were confronting each other. The smaller one covered his clothes tightly, his ears red as he avoided Chu Rong’s “claws”.
Chu Rong disliked the smell on Fu Nian’s body. Fu Nian also knew that he smelled bad. He hadn’t taken a shower for two or three weeks. He just vomited. Although he didn’t vomit on himself, he still had a strange smell. He thought Chu Rong was merciful and let him take a shower. At most, she would let him rinse with cold water. He didn’t expect Chu Rong to bathe him personally!
Fu Nian couldn’t accept it, and he didn’t dare to accept it.
So the two of them started a tug-of-war at the bathroom door. Fu Nian was unwilling to compromise. Chu Rong looked at Fu Nian’s small arms and legs and was worried, “Can you wash yourself?” Can you reach the bathtub? What if you hit your head?
Fu Nian exhaled and said calmly, “I can do it.”
Chu Rong looked at him worriedly for a long time. The child was already six years old, and it was normal for him to have his own sense of shame. She should not force it.
”Okay then.” Chu Rong walked out and reminded, “Niannian, call mom if you have any problems.”
Fu Nian didn’t say anything. As soon as Chu Rong walked away, he silently closed the bathroom door and locked it.
Chu Rong shook her head. She was not a hooligan. The children were really on guard against her. She was indeed not a hooligan, but she was scarier than a hooligan. She was a bully.
It was just right that she didn’t have to show up in front of the two kids, and she also had to sort out her current situation.
The original owner was too blatant in her actions, and most of the servants in the house knew about her deeds. When the male protagonist came back, he could just ask anyone, and they would know how Chu Rong treated Fu Nian and Fu Yu. She had to arrange everything before Fu Ruhui came back, and those who should pay their debts should pay, those who should make money should make money, and finally those who should run away should run away.
Fortunately, the Fu family did not have many servants, including an aunt named Yunsao who cooked, two drivers who took shifts, two young maids, and the housekeeper Wu Can.
According to Chu Rong’s impression of the original text, the original owner’s accomplice included Wu Can and a maid. However, because the text did not focus much on the maid, she didn’t even know the person’s name, so it was difficult to determine which of the two young maids was Chu Rong’s accomplice.
Chu Rong called Wu Can, who was the Fu family’s housekeeper and Chu Rong’s number one thug. He should know very well who the other accomplice was.
When Wu Can heard Chu Rong calling him, he immediately ran over and asked, “Madam, what’s wrong?”
”Where is that girl?” Chu Rong lowered her eyes and flicked the original owner’s brightly painted nails, asking casually.
Wu Can was bewildered and asked, “Ah? Which girl are you talking about, Madam?”
Chu Rong thought to herself, how do I know which girl it is? She could only say impatiently, “What do you think, who else can I call in this villa besides her?”
Wu Can thought for a moment, “Madam, are you talking about Zeng Qian? Didn’t you ask her to ask for leave for Fu Nian and Fu Yu? She’s probably hanging out outside.”
The servant who went to ask for leave for Fu Nian and Fu Yu was mentioned in the article and was indeed one of Chu Rong’s accomplices. Chu Rong was very satisfied and said lightly, “Wandering outside?” She could hear from Wu Can’s words that he was dissatisfied with Zeng Qian. What’s going on? Could it be that these two people still have a grudge?
”When is she not out playing when she’s doing something?” Wu Can said angrily, “She only says nice things, but she doesn’t really treat Madam sincerely. Madam, you need to open your eyes. I’m the only one who is the most loyal and sincere. Please fire Zeng Qian. Sooner or later, she will ruin Madam’s business.”
Judging from Wu Can’s tone and expression, he really disliked Zeng Qian. Chu Rong guessed that Wu Can must have said this more than once in front of the original owner. Judging from his performance, as long as the original owner mentioned Zeng Qian’s name in front of Wu Can, Wu Can would say a lot of bad things about Zeng Qian.
Chu Rong couldn’t help but feel curious, why was Wu Can so hostile towards Zeng Qian?
”You really can’t stand her.” Chu Rong continued to ask questions calmly.
Wu Can said against his will: “I don’t dislike her, I am thinking about madam.”
Chu Rong let out a long sigh. Wu Can was not objective. She should wait until Zeng Qian came back to find out the truth. She couldn’t fire people abruptly now. People like Zeng Qian and Wu Can who could do something to children were all evil. If Chu Rong made things difficult for them now, they might bite her back.
Although the original owner did not personally harm Fu Nian and Fu Yu, it was because of her indulgence that Fu Nian and Fu Yu fell into this misfortune.
”Got it. Go back to your room and don’t come out unless necessary.” Chu Rong asked Wu Can to stay at home as usual. Apart from compensating the two children, she couldn’t think of any good way to deal with it. She could only wait and see. When she thought of the uncertain road ahead, Chu Rong felt that her life was in danger. The landmines buried by the original owner were so many and large. She had to clear them one by one. She didn’t know how much effort it would take.
There are still seven months before Fu Ruhui returns. These seven months are the deadline for Chu Rong to make a comeback.
Wu Can didn’t know why he was locked up in his room. He opened his mouth to defend himself, but Chu Rong didn’t want to listen. She covered her eyes and waved her hands tiredly, “When you can change your attitude towards Fu Nian and Fu Yu, you can appear in front of them again.”
”Madam, what do you want me to change it to?” Wu Can asked hurriedly.
He was tall and strong, with a needy look on his face that made him look like a big, stupid guy.
”What do you think?” Chu Rong asked coldly, “You are the butler of the Fu family, and they are the young masters of the Fu family. What attitude should the butler have towards the young masters?”
Wu Can said sincerely: “I don’t know. It was Madam who brought me to the Fu family and taught me what to do. How should I treat them? I really don’t know.”
Chu Rong gasped when she heard this. My goodness, is this big idiot threatening her?
”I will do whatever Madam wants me to do.” Wu Can said firmly, “As long as you say it, I will listen to you.”
Chu Rong didn’t know whether he was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. She randomly searched for a bloody and overbearing CEO novel and gave it to Wu Can. “Read it for yourself and see how the housekeeper in the novel treats the young master. Think about it carefully.”
Wu Can took his phone and looked at the novel with more than 2,000 chapters without frowning, “Okay, Madam, I will study hard. But can you please not let me stay in my room? I want to be by your side all the time.”
He changed back to that affected voice, and Chu Rong quickly made a pause gesture, “Okay, that’s enough. Come out when you have learned it. You don’t have to be by my side all the time in the future. Just do your part well.”
Wu Can’s face fell immediately. Although he didn’t know why Madam suddenly changed her temperament, he just wanted Madam to give him a chance. Madam was still Madam, and he was still Madam’s man. “Yes. I’ll go back to my room, Madam.”
After Wu Can went downstairs, Chu Rong calmed down and said slowly, “Come out, I know you are there.”
She did not look back, quite like a martial arts master. A few seconds later, a small figure slowly emerged from behind the wall behind her. It was Fu Nian who had finished his bath.
Fu Nian looked at Chu Rong’s back, “How did you know I was here?”
”I don’t know.” Chu Rong turned around with a smile, “But didn’t you come out by yourself?”
Fu Nian was slightly startled, then reacted and said angrily: “You did it on purpose!”
Chu Rong shrugged, “You were fooled, do you blame me?”
Sure enough, Chu Rong is still the same Chu Rong, a deceitful and cunning villain with a smile! Fu Nian pursed his lips tightly, not wanting to say another word to Chu Rong.
”Go upstairs and take a nap after you take a shower,” Chu Rong did not have any illusions that Fu Nian would get intimate with her right now and resolve their past grievances. She put away the smile on her face and said, “You know which room is mine, right? Go ahead, you can have lunch after you wake up from your nap.”
”You want me to sleep in your room?” Fu Nian hesitated.
”Xiaoyu is in my room,” Chu Rong asked as a matter of course, “Don’t you sleep with him?”
Fu Nian hesitated. He was determined to sleep with Fu Yu. If Fu Yu woke up and didn’t see him, he would definitely panic.
But Chu Rong’s room…
Fu Nian was a child who never stopped thinking, so Chu Rong made a decision for him. She bent down, picked up Fu Nian and walked upstairs. Anyway, they only had to go up one floor and there was no need to take the elevator.
Chu Rong held Fu Nian and stepped steadily up the stairs one step after another. The smooth stone surface reflected the appearance of Fu Nian and Chu Rong. Fu Nian regained his composure after a moment of surprise. He lowered his head habitually and saw himself and Chu Rong reflected on the shiny stone surface. Chu Rong, who couldn’t even lift a vase normally, actually carried him up one floor, and he subconsciously hooked his arms around Chu Rong’s neck and snuggled in her arms. The two looked like a pair of loving mother and child.
Fu Nian was shocked by the thoughts in his mind, and he quickly released his hand from Chu Rong’s neck.
Chu Rong also walked to the door of the room. She put Fu Nian down and pointed to the big bed inside, signaling him to go up. Because she was afraid of waking up Fu Yu who was sleeping soundly, Chu Rong was very careful even when opening the door.
Fu Nian silently watched Chu Rong lip-syncing to him. She thought he didn’t understand what she meant and kept saying “Come in quickly” silently. Fu Nian didn’t respond or move, as if he didn’t understand.
Finally, when Chu Rong couldn’t help but want to talk to Fu Nian in a whisper, Fu Nian came into the room before she could open her mouth.
Chu Rong watched him squat on the ground and take off his shoes, then climbed onto the soft big bed quietly and lay down three palms away from Fu Yu. It was almost noon now, and the sunlight poured in from the French windows, just enough to give the light pink quilt a golden glow.
Fu Nian originally thought that he would not be able to sleep as so many things had happened in the past half day, but within two minutes of lying down, Fu Nian fell into a deep sleep.
They fell asleep in the warmth and had a bright dream after a long time.
Chu Rong stood at the door for a while, closed the door gently, and then went downstairs.
