Chapter 2005
In the end, she was a strong woman in the capital, but in half a minute, she had organized her emotions, and after taking a look around, she looked at Fu Shen Yan and bared a laugh, showing the same contemptuous expression of Shen Yu, “I didn’t believe it when the media reported it, but I didn’t think you really found a replacement. A seven-point resemblance to your face has turned you upside down? I also heard that you even resigned from your position as president of the Fu Group? Do you even know the consequences of doing so?”
The tone of her voice was strong, and she could not even hear the jealousy of an ordinary woman “catching a girl in bed”.
Zhao Shuang’s character is strong, everything is career-oriented, and the love of a man in silence is even less important to her than that of her family, which is still the same after six years.
These words are not so much to defend sovereignty as to stand as a collaborator and spur on Fu Shenhua’s words and actions.
Six years ago, when I learned that Fu Shenyan and I were faking our divorce, Zhao Shuang had not dwelt on it, taking it in stride and believing that six years later nothing would change.
I got up and walked over to her, stood in front of her and smiled, “May I have a word?”
Zhao Shuang, wearing twelve centimeters of sky-high height, was in full aura in front of me, dressed in a homely outfit, and gave me a condescending look, showing disdain, “You think you have the qualifications?”
At these words, Shen Yu slammed her bowl on the table with a thud, a warning in her voice.
But Zhao Shuang was indifferent, still looking high and mighty, unmoved.
I tugged at the corners of my mouth and smiled instead of anger, “Six years ago, Miss Zhao dared to love and hate, to fulfill someone else’s marriage, but now you’re a little woman who wants to break up a marriage?”
Zhao Shuang smiled and snapped her head down to look at me, her eyes more complicated than when she entered, “You are still alive?”
Six years ago Zhao Shuang published the truth about ending her relationship with Fu Shen Yan in the newspaper, only a few of us knew, and I believe she now knew very well who was standing in front of her.
I smiled, didn’t answer and took the lead towards the study on the ground floor, Zhao Shuang stood in place for a moment before following in on her high heels.
Closing the door, I went straight to the point, “Miss Zhao, I want to know the conditions under which you agreed to the Murong family and pretended to be Fu Shenyan’s fiancée.”
The first thing I want to know is what I can’t refuse, but I don’t think I have to tell you?”
In fact, I could guess without her saying anything that what Zhao Shuang needed was only money, power, status and fame.
She said to herself, “You have quite a hard life, so many twists and turns in the past, and this time you can actually live towards death, I have to say a word of admiration.”
“Then wouldn’t I be honoured?” Zhao Shuang had never been one to lose her temper, and she could count the number of people who could make her heart happy on one palm, and these words were considered extremely high praise.
Zhao Shuang shrugged, unable to deny it.
The atmosphere was unexpectedly relaxed, and people who don’t need emotion are always brash.
I didn’t drag my feet either and stated my purpose directly, “How much do you know about Murong Tianjiao?”
Zhao Shuang laughed, “Are you planning to pry her out of the corner? What makes you think that I, Zhao Shuang, am such an unrighteous person?”
“Of course I do.” I raised my eyes, my smile not reaching the bottom of my eyes, and looked her straight in the eye, “Isn’t profit your strongest principle? You’re a smart person, you shouldn’t need me to teach you how to choose between the Murong family and the Shen family nowadays, right?”
The smile on Zhao Shuang’s face faded away, and his eyes were gradually taken over by ambition.
Chapter 2006
When I came out of the study, the door opened and I almost knocked over the little meatball who was guarding the door.
Luckily, I reacted quickly and didn’t bump into him.
“Zhian, why don’t you go and eat, why are you guarding here?” I asked him in a whisper as I bent my upper body.
Zhi’an didn’t say anything either, his black grape-like eyes were set on Zhao Shuang, his gaze very alert.
Zhao Shuang shook his head in a lifeless manner and laughed to himself, “It seems I’ve been the enemy in the little one’s eyes all my life.”
It was only then that I reacted to the fact that earlier, under the arrangement of the Murong family, Zhi’an had to accept Zhao Shuang as his future stepmother, and the resistance had not faded until now.
I hurriedly raised my hand to rub the little meatball’s dull fur and said soothingly, “Auntie Zhao is mommy’s friend, don’t be rude oh.”
The first time I saw her, I had to be a little more careful.
Zhao Shuang and I looked at each other, crying and laughing.
It was a moment later that she followed my example and bowed her body, revealing a rare hint of natural doting, “Nah, Zhian, Auntie Zhao now assures you that she will never steal your mother’s position, a man can’t be more generous, let’s make peace, O no OK?”
“You’re not lying to me?” Zhi An was still stubborn.
Zhao Shuang held up three fingers and his expression became more serious, “Ipromise.”
“OK!” Zhi’an obediently raised her hand and jumped up to give her a high five, “Reconciliation!”
When the storm was finally resolved, Shen Yu started to call out in a long voice again, “The food is getting cold, how can we still eat?”
Fu Shen Yan deliberately confronted him, “You don’t have to eat if you don’t want to, no one is forcing you.”
“Do you know the rules, how can you talk to your brother-in-law like that?”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen someone lecture her father in front of her niece, so it’s mutual.”
“Don’t eat your own wine, Fu Shen Yan!”
“It just so happens that I want to try all kinds of wine today.”
“……”
Zhao Shuang looked with raised eyebrows, “Is this what is called the ‘hilarity’ of home?”
Apparently, the female president, who had been in the mall since she was nineteen, didn’t quite understand the tossing and bumping at the dinner table.
Not knowing how to explain it to her, she had to tug at the corners of her mouth awkwardly.
Zhao Shuang sucked in a sharp breath of cold air, and the next second walked quickly towards the door, as if someone was chasing her life behind her, without looking back.
“Eh, you don’t rush off, stay and have a meal ……”
Before the words were finished, the roar of the engine was heard outside.
The actual “warmth” of the so-called family will probably never again be desired by Zhao Shuang in this life.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
I was so angry that I stomped my foot, guessing the muffled sound of the floor, “You two, have you had enough noise, can you have a good meal!”
The whole living room fell into silence, even Zhi’an and An Xin were so shocked that they didn’t dare to move.
Everyone’s eyes were looking towards me, and I was a little uncomfortable.
It was as if An Xin had been opened up and pointed at Shen Yu and Fu Shen Yan and started barking orders.
“Mummy is angry, Shen Yu, don’t mess around!”
“Daddy, be a good boy, don’t make mommy upset! You want to P*ss me off, huh?”
The little one learned to call Shen Yu by his name from somewhere, and when he saw that they didn’t respond, he didn’t get tired of jumping off the chairs and pressing them back on one by one.
