BXBX NOVEL Chapter 787
Chapter 787: Jealousy
“I want to make money, not risk my life.”
President Lin was startled, and he sighed. “That’s not necessary for marrying a woman, is it?”
Fu Jiuxiao felt that this sentence was quite ironic. President Lin had climbed to the top of the Long family just for his career, and he had to do everything at the behest of the Long family. However, he still thought that he was powerful, in fact, in the eyes of others, he was just a clown.
“If I have come to this point and still have to be threatened by others, would it still be meaningful?” Fu Jiuxiao asked back.
President Lin was stunned again. He did not expect Fu Jiuxiao to say such words.
Even after Fu Jiuxiao got into the car, he still stood there in a daze, as if he had suffered a serious blow.
The person sitting in the passenger seat was Zhuo Yihang.
Zhuo Yihang saw what had just happened and heard Fu Jiuxiao’s last sentence. He retracted his disdainful gaze toward President Lin and said, “President Fu, do you want to remind him to live like a human?”
Fu Jiuxiao said coldly, “No, he doesn’t deserve it.”
He flipped through the attachment sent by Jiang Li again. President Lin’s name was the first one.
On one hand, President Lin was working hard to promote this collaboration. He wanted to show his face in front of the Long family and get some better resources. On the other hand, he wanted to get some benefits from him and Samuel. From time to time, he would stir up trouble.
Fu Jiuxiao had long known about President Lin’s little tricks, but he chose to tolerate them in order to achieve his goal. However, he had changed his mind.
Zhuo Yihang cleared his throat. “President Fu, if we really give up this project, we will lose a lot.”
Fu Jiuxiao smiled coldly. “Don’t worry, they will lose even more. In the end, they will have no choice but to come back and beg me.”
If he did not even have this ability, then he would not be Fu Jiuxiao.
Only then did Zhuo Yihang make up his mind. He did not know Fu Jiuxiao’s plan for the time being. Thus, he could only follow the original arrangement and send people to keep an eye on Fu Zhongtian, as well as continue to investigate several dangerous accidents.
When Fu Jiuxiao returned home, it was already dark. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiang Li sitting at the dining table.
Jiang Li was holding a piece of bread in her hand, and her other hand was rapidly writing on the notebook. She wanted to cram all her knowledge into her brain.
She was already very outstanding and very capable, but she never relaxed.
Fu Jiuxiao went behind Jiang Li with heartache and gently hugged her. “I’m back.”
Jiang Li was startled by Fu Jiuxiao. She put down the pen in her hand and was about to kiss Fu Jiuxiao’s cheek when she remembered that there were bread crumbs on her mouth. She smiled embarrassedly. “Go wash your hands. I’ll wait for you.”
“You haven’t eaten yet?” Fu Jiuxiao’s voice was gentle.
Jiang li said coquettishly, “Uncle isn’t back yet. How can I eat by myself first?”
Fu Jiuxiao’s heart itched. He did not hesitate at all about whether he should eat first or ‘eat’ Jiang Li first.
“Let’s go back to the room first.” He reached out to pick up Jiang Li, but Jiang Li avoided him.
Jiang Li stopped smiling and pushed Fu Jiuxiao away. “Today, we will be very busy.”
They were busy with the things on the list, and they had to discuss a simple plan.
Fu Jiuxiao sighed and stood up. “I feel a little wronged.”
Jiang Li’s gaze fell on Fu Jiuxiao’s collar, and she licked her lips. “We can talk about it after we’ve discussed it.”
Fu Jiuxiao smiled and kissed her forehead. “I’m just teasing you. You spent so much effort investigating important matters. I can’t hold you back.”
He sat next to Jiang Li and waited for the servants to bring the dinner up before leaving. When there were only the two of them in the living room, he started to talk about what happened today.
The first person he wanted to talk to was actually Long Gui?
Jiang Li looked at Fu Jiuxiao discontentedly and carefully observed his every expression. She suspected that he was doing it on purpose.
Even though Fu Jiuxiao had repeatedly stated that he did not like Long Gui and that he would not have too much contact with this Miss Long, their repeated contact and constant contact would still make her uncomfortable.
When Fu Jiuxiao talked about Long Gui’s expression that was different from a normal person’s, he suddenly stopped speaking when he saw Jiang Li’s angry face.
Jiang Li asked sullenly, “Hm? Why aren’t you continuing?”
Fu Jiuxiao suddenly hugged Jiang Li’s waist and pulled her into his embrace. He pressed his chin against her forehead. “You look so cute when you’re jealous.”
Jealous?
Who was jealous?
Jiang Li immediately wanted to push Fu Jiuxiao away angrily, but in the end, she could not bear to do so. She pinched Fu Jiuxiao’s face with the hand that had grabbed the bread. “Let’s get back to business.”
Fu Jiuxiao turned his head to bite Jiang Li’s finger, but he was dodged.
He did not continue to make a scene, but after talking about Long Gui, he started talking about Long Zhan. They were all members of the Long family.
Jiang Li listened carefully, but her heart was filled with anger.
Long family huh?
The proud Fu Jiuxiao had suffered a lot from the Long family.
They went back to the study room and continued to talk about what was going to happen next.
The plan started to be arranged.
