Chapter 156 - 156 Do Not Be Fooled
Lu Mingyu’s expression was clear and spirited, full of youthful spirit. His tone was firm as he said, “Yangyang, get in the car first. It’s warm inside.”
Lu Yang glanced at Pei Yiwu, who said, “I have something to do, so I won’t walk with you guys.”
Lu Yang replied, “Okay.”
Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu got into the car, while Pei Yiwu bid them farewell outside, saying, “Goodnight, Yangyang darling. Have a safe journey.”
Lu Yang responded, “Goodnight, be careful.”
Pei Yiwu said, “All right. See you!”
Chen Su started the car and drove away.
Pei Yiwu stood still, watching the car disappear before turning around. She fixed her gaze on the license plate of the black car and broke out in a cold sweat. Taking a deep breath, with a heart filled with astonishment and fear, she walked straight towards the car.
Pei Yiwu opened the front passenger door and nodded to Qin Jue, who was in the driver’s seat.
Pei Yiwu sat inside and turned her head to the man in the back seat, nodding,
“President Fei.”
Fei Zhen closed his eyes, leaning back in his seat. Even in the darkness, his features exuded bone-chilling coldness. He simply responded coldly, “Hmm.”
Pei Yiwu looked puzzled and glanced at Qin Jue. How could the authoritative President Fei be tired?
You see, President Fei is like a cold robot. Not only does he manage the Fei Group meticulously, but even the group of old foxes in the company are impressed by him.
Qin Jue gave her a helpless look.
Everything started with that international phone call in the afternoon.
Since making the call, President Fei seemed like a wilted cabbage, listless and lacking energy.
If we were to summarize the impact of that phone call in one sentence, Secretary Qin felt it would be:
In less than ten minutes, the call drained President Fei’s energy for the entire month.
Pei Yiwu didn’t understand, but she didn’t ask further. She decided to wait for President Fei to rest and then speak up. She fastened her seatbelt, and Qin Jue slowly started the car.
“Should we go to the Lu residence or the house in Binjiang?” Chen Su glanced at the rearview mirror and asked.
Lu Mingyu turned his head and asked Lu Yang, “Yangyang, where do you want to go?”
Lu Yang opened a music app and casually looked at the comments on Lu
Mingyu’s songs, saying, “Let’s go to Binjiang.”
“Let’s go to Binjiang,” Lu Mingyu told Chen Su, “My parents talk too much, and it will affect Yangyang’s recovery.” Chen Su replied, “…Okay.”
Aren’t you the most talkative one?
Lu Mingyu felt like he had forgotten something. After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked in surprise, “Yangyang, did you make an appointment for Jiang Yanzhou with a urologist?”
Lu Yang paused for a moment, glancing at Lu Mingyu from the corner of her eye, “Hmm, I recommended someone to him.”
“Men have their pride, Yang. We need to be tactful,” Lu Mingyu said.
“I was quite tactful.”
“Did Jiang Yanzhou agree?”
“He agreed.”
However, it seemed that he was more interested in being her guinea pig.
Lu Mingyu secretly let out a sigh of relief, “That’s good. Jiang Yanzhou is really pitiful.”
Lu Yang casually asked, “Why is he pitiful?”
Lu Mingyu sighed, “He’s not very likable, and no one likes him. Whenever there’s a big group activity, no one wants to be around him or play with him.”
Lu Yang couldn’t help but laugh, not taking his words seriously, and joked, “Mingyu, do people want to play with you?”
“Of course!”
Then he realized something, “Jiang Yanzhou is really disliked, but I’m well-liked. I will definitely bring him along. Yang, Jiang Yanzhou is lonely and has various illnesses. We need to make him feel the warmth and kindness in this world!”
His words lightened the atmosphere.
Lu Mingyu added, “Don’t be fooled by his appearance. Behind the scenes, he’s always been excluded by the industry.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Su really wanted to knock him on the head, “.. ”
The one being excluded is you! What are you fantasizing about? Other people don’t dare to approach Jiang Yanzhou out of awe, not because they dislike him!
Lu Mingyu has always had strong empathy since he was young, and Lu Yang knew this, but she didn’t expect him to see Jiang Yanzhou as such a pitiful person.
Her brother had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and he had a good imagination, but he didn’t pay much attention to his own affairs.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang’s expression suddenly dimmed.
She asked straightforwardly, “Mingyu, can’t you care more about yourself?”
Lu Mingyu was taken aback for a moment, then casually said, “What’s there to fear? A clear conscience fears no accusations. I walk the right path and sit with dignity. I’ve never feared anyone!”
“Of course,” he said with a smile, “Even a fearless brother like me would be afraid if Yangyang isn’t happy. So, Yangyang, always stay happy and fulfilled!”
Lu Yang was truly helpless with him. She sighed inwardly.
So be it.
Let her silly brother maintain his current carefree attitude, and she will take care of the rest.
Among the two siblings, he is the only good person, and that’s enough.
The highway was bustling with traffic, and rows of cars were orderly moving like ants.
The man in the back seat detached himself from the phone call in the afternoon and spoke up in the dark night, “How did it go?”
With just two words, Pei Yiwu trembled slightly with a cold shiver. Her eyes were frantic for a moment, but she calmed down slightly before responding,
“The variety show has no issues at all. The equipment is also fine. Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu won’t continue participating in the survival variety show. They are completely normal, no problems at all.”
The air fell into silence.
Pei Yiwu was uncertain and didn’t know what he wanted to do.
After a long while, Fei Zhen said, “Alright, I got it.”
Pei Yiwu finally let out a sigh of relief.
But based on her understanding of him—or rather, just a little bit—since Fei Zhen was willing to reply with five words, and these five words could easily be summarized with a simple glance, it truly felt like a miracle.
When Pei Yiwu speculated about the reason, Fei Zhen’s mind was filled with the woman he had silenced.
As soon as the call connected, she greeted him in a friendly tone, “Hello there.”
He introduced himself, “I’m Fei Zhen.”
On the other end, she immediately responded with a cold face, “Oh, it’s you. If you have nothing to do, don’t bother me. I’m busy. If there’s nothing, don’t contact me. And especially don’t contact me if there’s something.”
Fei Zhen replied, “Jiang Jinshi.”
Jiang Ruzi answered, “What business do you have with my son? If you want a son so badly, have the ability to bear a uterus and give birth to one yourself. I wouldn’t mind helping you out, guaranteed you’ll be on the brink of life and death!”
Fei Zhen was utterly at a loss for words.
Jiang Ruzi continued, “Are you still there? Don’t you know how to respond?!”
Fei Zhen: “… Mhm.”
“You wretched man! You took the initiative to call me and give such perfunctory answers. When talking to people, can’t you say a few more words?” Jiang Ruzi was sitting with her legs crossed, drinking afternoon tea, quite leisurely. “Even if you’re being perfunctory, you should at least say five words. Alright, since you can’t speak, I won’t force you. I’ll say it again, if you want a son, go bear one yourself, don’t come looking for my precious son.”
Then the call was immediately hung up.
Fei Zhen was about to return the call when Jiang Ruzi proactively called him.
“Out of courtesy, I’ll let you know that I’m going to block you. Don’t call me, it would be impolite. You’re not a gentleman, and I’m not a lady. If you contact me again, I’ll send your indecent photos to your subordinates!”
Fei Zhen was speechless.
The person who threatened him earlier had already vanished into thin air.
He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling city, and a trace of the most detested and resistant sense of helplessness emerged in his heart.
After dominating for so many years, he had almost forgotten this feeling of being powerless.
Lin Yuan.
In the study, Jiang Yanzhou looked at the book in his hand, his thoughts returning to the time he spent with Lu Yang.
The back of his hand grazed her cheek almost imperceptibly, and he asked in a low voice, “How about me being your male model?”
His words ignited the hidden passion within her.
She looked at him in astonishment, and when their gazes met, she asked straightforwardly, “Wearing clothes or not wearing clothes?”
Her eyes were clear, devoid of any malicious thoughts, as if she was truly observing an experimental specimen.
Her innocent fascination was intoxicating.
“I belong to you, so you can manipulate me as you wish.”
He paused, chuckled softly, and drawled, “But you have to do it yourself, undress me.”
Then, Lu Yang responded in a serious tone, “No, when examining a patient, it’s usually the patient who has to lift their own clothes. Otherwise, it can easily be reported as harassment.”
He chuckled softly, “Then, shall we draw the curtains and do it secretly?”
Lu Yang wasn’t fixated on appearances, but the moment she saw him, she thought he was handsome. Now, with him deliberately getting closer, she was forced to observe his expression from an extremely close distance. “No consideration allowed,” he lightly tapped her nose and succinctly said,
“Rejected.”
‘Why?” She was still considering agreeing.
“Your brother said something very true: There aren’t many good men out there.
Don’t easily trust deceitful men.”
Lu Yang stared at him in a daze and blinked.
He said, “When you’re with me, then I’ll undress for you.”
Jiang Yanzhou casually flipped through the book and landed on a page where a maple leaf was pressed. The maple leaf had long dried, but it remained intact.
He gently picked up the leaf, his gaze falling on the elegant and steady words written in the book.
Lu Yang and LY. A skilled physician..
