After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me-Chapter 544 - 359: _3

She tended to prefer being with Fu Tingzhou.

Unfortunately, Fu Tingzhou had now carried out a bridal kidnapping with Tang Xi and their whereabouts were unknown.

The shooting at the wedding, and the ensuing chaos, had been suppressed under the pressure of the Gu Family, and it was known that rumors had begun circulating within the circles.

Shu Mengshu was distracted, and the other party was trying to strike up a conversation, "How about we go watch a movie tonight, or rent out a cruise ship?" freewebnσvel.cѳm

The matchmaking candidate proposed to Shu Mengshu.

In reality, he wasn’t actually interested in Shu Mengshu; what he coveted was the wealth and power of the Fu Family.

Shu Mengshu wasn’t in the mood and declined.

Upon Shu Mengshu’s return home, Shu Yiming immediately noticed something was off, "You aren’t into Young Master Lu."

"He’s not my type. Brother, let’s hold off on the matchmaking for now." From what she knew of Fu Tingzhou, if Tang Xi were dead, Fu Tingzhou wouldn’t let Fu Yunye off the hook for revenge, and the Fu Family’s assets wouldn’t just fall into Fu Yunye’s hands.

If these two brothers end up in conflict, perhaps in the end, the Shu Family might be the one to profit.

If Tang Xi weren’t dead, Fu Tingzhou would have given her a wedding by now given the current situation, but there had been no movement thus far.

Now, she has to wait, wait until the end of the story.

Shu Yiming was emotional, "Do you really not know the purpose of the matchmakings I’ve arranged for you?"

Arranging these was for her own good; he didn’t want to see her constantly and negatively influenced by Fu Tingzhou. That Fu Tingzhou wasn’t worth her constant concern.

Of course, Shu Mengshu knew that.

Not wanting to upset Shu Yiming, she responded, "Brother, I know I’m wrong. I’m truly not interested in him. Don’t worry, none of the things you’re concerned about will happen to me."

She tried to act obedient, and Shu Yiming nodded, "Good as long as you’re obedient."

However, she still wanted to know any news of Fu Tingzhou and had people secretly investigate.

Fu Tingzhou had intentionally sealed off the information; nobody knew where they were now.

Although Old Master Fu was worried about him, Fu Yunye had put the old man under house arrest, leaving him with no real power at all.

Luckily, Shen Duan managed to infiltrate the Fu family mansion and met with Old Master Fu.

Seeing Shen Duan, Old Master Fu couldn’t hold back his tears, "Shen Duan, have you come to tell me of his whereabouts?"

Old Master Fu was already unwell, and his spirits had been affected by several days of house arrest, making his condition look rather poor.

Shen Duan pursed his lips, "Old Master, I came to check in on you, and also to assure you that there’s no need to worry. Master Fu has it under control. He surely wouldn’t want to see you like this. It’s best for you to rest well and eat on time."

"So where is he now? Hiding away with Tang Xi?"

The incident at the wedding couldn’t be kept from him.

Shen Duan slowly responded, "Old Master, it’s not what you think. Even if Master Fu is with Miss Tang, he still needs to settle matters first."

Old Master Fu understood.

However, Shen Duan’s arrival did lift Old Master Fu’s spirits considerably.

But while entering was easy for Shen Duan, leaving was not as simple.

Fu Yunye’s men had him completely surrounded.

"Are you trying to send messages to Old Master Fu, or do you want him to collude with Fu Tingzhou?" Fu Yunye appeared in front of Shen Duan, slowly rolling his wheelchair into view.

Fu Yunye was dressed in a black suit, his cold gaze radiating haughtiness.

Even at home, Fu Yunye would wear a suit because in his eyes, only then could he look down on everything and everyone.

It gave him a sense of superiority.

Shen Duan was defiant, refusing to speak a word to Fu Yunye.

However, Fu Yunye had plenty of ways to torment him and even sent a video of Shen Duan being tortured to Fu Tingzhou.

"Fu Tingzhou, do you see? I think you’d better just stay outside with Tang Xi and live a good life. Don’t come back to North City, or you and your assistant will share the same fate!"

Fu Tingzhou saw the video.

He should be relieved that Fu Yunye still had a sliver of humanity left and didn’t harm his grandfather.

Yet, Fu Tingzhou’s furrowed brows and cold face, along with a look of concern, drew Tang Xi’s attention.

Tang Xi said, "It’s been so many days already, I can take care of myself. You should go back and deal with the matters you have to."

With Fu Yunye’s ambitious nature, added to the bridal kidnapping by Fu Tingzhou, Fu Yunye would definitely seek retaliation.

"Wait until your injuries have healed."

Fu Tingzhou left Tang Xi with just these four words, saying no more.

In the days that followed, Fu Tingzhou acted as if nothing had ever happened, accompanying Tangtang and Tang Xi as usual.

Seeing no response from Fu Tingzhou, Fu Yunye approached Shen Duan.

"What did Fu Tingzhou tell you? Just spill Fu Tingzhou’s plans, and I might let you go," said Fu Yunye, thinking there had to be more to it.

Nothing seemed characteristic of Fu Tingzhou’s modus operandi.

Even if Fu Tingzhou would abandon the Fu Corporation for Tang Xi, would he also dispense with his assistant and closest grandfather?

Shen Duan scoffed, "You think Master Fu has any plans now? If he wanted to do something, he would have returned already. I just came to see Old Master Fu and you’re already panicking. In that case, you’d better step down from your position sooner to avoid getting frightened out of your wits when anything happens."
