Chapter 37: Fu Yunshen: If No One Protects You, I Will

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Nie Chao was furious.

They were ganging up on a little girl?

Could they be any more shameless?

Madam Ying held her nose. It hurt like hell.

When she saw that it was a young master she didn’t know, she regained her confidence. “What does it have to do with you? Huh?”

Only then did Nie Chao remember that few people in Hucheng knew him, so he opened the door and shouted at the top of his lungs, “Seventh Young Master, come quickly.”

Then, he turned around and comforted the girl. “Don’t be afraid. Seventh Young Master is here.”

Ying Zijin was slightly taken aback and raised her head.

Fu Yunshen came in a step behind.

This time, he was wearing a white shirt. The top two buttons were unbuttoned, and his collarbone was half exposed, giving him an extremely alluring look.

He looked flippant and aloof. One look and one could tell that he was a good-for-nothing.

Everyone in the office was stunned.

Madam Ying was even more shocked and her mind started buzzing. “Seventh… Seventh Young Master?”

One would never forget Fu Yunshen’s face as long as one saw him once.

Even if there were people in Hucheng who were dissatisfied with his incompetence, they had to be respectful.

“Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Xu.” Fu Yunshen ignored her and walked straight to the girl as he said, “I’m her parent. I came late.”

Mr. Xu was stunned.

Seeing that the seventh young master was so shameless that he was already calling himself a parent, Nie Chao clicked his tongue.

“Go to class first.” Fu Yunshen glanced sideways at her as he said, “There’s no need to waste time.”

These words caused He Xun’s expression to change.

Ying Zijin was silent for a moment before she slowly said, “Actually, I can do it myself…”

Before she could finish, Fu Yunshen took out a piece of dark chocolate from his pocket and called out with a smile, “Yaoyao?”

Ying Zijin’s mouth was blocked.

Nie Chao was speechless.

Was there a need to feed her all the time?

Was he treating his wife as his daughter?

Miss Deng pushed up her glasses and said, “Mr Fu is right. Zijin, you should go to class first. Don’t be late. There are adults here to settle this.”

Ying Zijin raised her hand and took the piece of chocolate.

She didn’t want to trouble him.

Although she knew that he genuinely treated her well.

“Go.” Fu Yunshen leaned forward slightly and patted her head as he said, “If you’re here, I’m afraid I’ll scare you when I fight later.”

Nie Chao was speechless.

He was lying through his teeth!

Had he forgotten how she had beaten up five hooligans single-handedly?

Miss Deng agreed. “You must be frightened. I’ll bring you to the infirmary to get checked first.”

The office door opened and closed, and the atmosphere was extremely cold.

Ying Feifei grabbed Mrs. Ying’s clothes tightly and couldn’t stop trembling.

She didn’t believe Lu Fang when he said that Ying Zijin had a thing with Fu Yunshen, but now, she had no choice but to believe him.

What kind of luck was this?

Fu Yunshen looked up and said, “Mr. Xu, I want to know what happened.”

Mr. Xu quickly recounted the entire matter and said, “Mr. Fu, we’re discussing how to resolve it.

The man’s mirthful gaze turned cold inch by inch.

Madam Ying shivered and no longer had her previous arrogance. “Seventh Young Master, it’s a misunderstanding. It’s all a misunderstanding.”

“Misunderstanding? Your daughter can’t be bullied, but my child can?” Fu Yunshen’s voice was gentle as he said with a smile, “Why? Huh?”

Madam Ying wanted to say, “How can an adopted daughter compare to my daughter?” However, she didn’t dare to say it out loud.

Fu Yunshen said calmly, “Pick it up.”

Madam Ying was stunned. However, she couldn’t care less about her pride now and hurriedly squatted down to pick up the money she had thrown on the ground.

Before she could get up, a stack of money was thrown on her head.

“She was just thrown into the trash can. She’s fine, so what’s there to fuss about?” Nie Chao distributed the money as he said, “I’ll give you ten thousand. Is that enough?”

Madam Ying’s face turned pale from the humiliation.

Ying Feifei’s lips quivered. “Y-You’re bullying us…”

“Hey, don’t distort the truth.” Nie Chao snorted and said, “I remember how you bullied the seventh young master’s sister just now.”

Mr. Xu said tentatively, “Mr. Fu, about this…”

“Do whatever you have to do.” Fu Yunshen straightened his body and said with a chuckle, “I believe that Qingzhi has always been fair.”

**

In the end, Madam Ying left with Ying Feifei.

Although Ying Feifei wasn’t expelled, she had a serious demerit on her record. Ying Feifei would never be able to attend the Imperial Capital University.

Not to mention Imperial Capital University, no top-rate university in the country would accept her. Her future was basically ruined.

It was worse than having her reputation ruined.

“I was wondering why you rushed here so early in the morning. Turns out that you wanted to save the damsel in distress,” Nie Chao muttered. “Seventh Young Master, it’s not that I want to say this, but have you really taken a fancy to that big shot?”

“She’s still a young girl. Isn’t this a little too early?”

Fu Yunshen glanced at him with a faint smile.

Nie Chao immediately raised his hands in surrender. “Forget that I said anything!”

“No.” Fu Yunshen turned his head and looked down from the rooftop of the school building as he said calmly, “It’s just that we’re in the same boat.”

Nie Chao was stunned.

After recalling the matter with the Fu family, he was instantly speechless.

Nie Chao didn’t know how to comfort him, so he said hesitantly, “Brother, let it go. It’s been so long already.”

“Yes, it’s been so long already.” Fu Yunshen chuckled as he said, “It’s been 20 years already.”

In front of him, there was a sea of blood.

Screams and gunshots sounded.

His eyelashes fluttered and he smiled again as he said, “In the past, I wanted someone to protect me, but no one did. So, I want to protect her now.”

Upon hearing this, Nie Chao was extremely sad. “Seventh Young Master…”

The man leaned against the wall, his slender legs bent as he looked towards the sky and said softly, “My life has been too bumpy and I have never been able to settle down. However, Yaoyao must have the best.”

He smiled gently.

At night, at the Zhong family’s residence.

When Zhong Manhua arrived, Old Master Zhong was reading the newspaper at the dining table. He replied indifferently, “You’re here.”

Zhong Manhua stopped in her tracks and called out, “Dad.”

“Where’s Zijin?” Old Master Zhong put down the newspaper and poked his head out to look outside the door, but then he was disappointed. “Why isn’t she back yet?”

He couldn’t help but reprimand her. “As a mother, you came alone? What sort of mother are you?”

Zhong Manhua was extremely frustrated.

If the phone call from Qingzhi in the morning hadn’t embarrassed her, how could she not go to school to pick up Ying Zijin?

The Zhong family was her maiden family. Her marrying into the Ying family was originally a good opportunity for the two families to join forces.

However, because of Ying Zijin, her sisters-in-law of the Zhong family secretly mocked her.

“Wanwan, aren’t you in the same class as Zi Jin?” Old Master Zhong thought of something and turned around to ask, “You haven’t seen her?”

It was already seven o’clock, so the sophomores had already been released.

Zhong Zhiyan clenched her fists and said in a low voice, “Grandfather, I haven’t seen her. Moreover, my cousin might…”

“Might what?” Old Master Zhong became nervous. “Did something happen?”

Zhong Zhifan quickly glanced at Zhong Manhua before saying, “My cousin is going to be expelled by Qingzhi.”
