Heartwarming Aristocratic Marriage: Influential Master's Wife-Chasing Strategy

Fu Chen tilted his head and watched as Fu Zhongli walked past him and directly entered the house…

He was holding a briefcase in his hand and wearing a trim black suit. It was early spring, and he was wearing a shirt, a vest, and a tie meticulously.

Seeing him return, Sun Qionghua was slightly taken aback. He rarely came home in the afternoon, which was also why Sun Gongda had dared to come at this time.

Fu Zhongli’s gaze landed on the half swollen and red side of Sun Qionghua’s face. He handed her the briefcase. “Help me take my briefcase upstairs.”

His actions were elegant and unruffled.

“…” Sun Qionghua hesitated for a moment before taking the briefcase in the end.

When Sun Gongda saw that she was about to leave, he couldn’t stay any longer. Some time ago, Fu Zhongli had driven him out of the house forcefully. This was the first time he had seen such a cold and uncompromising side to him.

If he continued to stay here, he probably wouldn’t gain any benefits.

“When did you return?” Fu Zhongli reached out and loosened his tie.

“I arrived this morning.” Sun Gongda’s expression was as calm as usual, but he was apprehensive inside, as he didn’t know what Fu Zhongli wanted to do.

“As soon as you arrived in Yuncheng early in the morning, you rushed to my house to cause a ruckus and even hit Qionghua. Do you think there’s no master in this house?”

Sun Gongda clenched his teeth. “This is an issue between us siblings.”

“I’m the one who called the police to arrest Sun Zhen. If you have any resentment, just come at me directly. What kind of man are you to bully a woman?”

“Fu Zhongli, I also know a little about your relationship as a married couple. What’s the point of standing up for her now?” After all, he was Sun Qionghua’s biological older brother and had always been close to her. Sun Qionghua was strong-willed, so she naturally wouldn’t say anything about their relationship as a married couple. But anyone with discerning eyes could tell that the only description apt for the couple was having mutual respect for each other as husband and wife.

“Are we divorced?” Fu Zhongli asked.

The corners of Sun Gongda’s mouth stiffened, and he didn’t say anything.

“Since we aren’t divorced, then she’s still a member of our Fu family. You rushed to our house, bossed her around, and even hurt her. Do you still have the right to kick up a huge fuss?” Fu Zhongli asked.

“You…”

“You couldn’t restrain your children, causing them to make serious mistakes. Instead of repenting, you want a woman to clean up your mess. Not only are you shameless, but you’re also devoid of any sense of shame!”

Fu Chen leaned against the door frame. Sun Gongda was truly out of luck to have bumped into his second brother returning home at the right time.

No matter how a married couple’s relationship is…

It’s still not up to you to scold or hit her.

Isn’t this racing to your doom?

“Fu Zhongli!” Sun Gongda could no longer remain calm.

“Do you truly not know how she has treated your family all these years? Without her help, would your Sun family have been able to survive until today? You don’t know how to be grateful but even shifted the blame to her. How are you people different from vampires?

“You wear human skin but don’t behave humanely.”

Sun Gongda clenched his fists. “Even so, this is a matter of our Sun family.”

“Now that she’s married our Fu family, she’s a member of our Fu family. Get lost from my house and deal with your family’s nonsense! Don’t come to our house and dirty our place!”

Fu Zhongli suddenly flew into a rage, and even Fu Chen raised his eyebrows in shock.

Second Brother rarely loses his temper.

The couple isn’t divorced yet, but you hit his wife. Isn’t this slapping his face?

“…” Sun Gongda was dumbstruck.

“You keep calling her a member of the Sun family, but if you people treated her as family, you wouldn’t have pushed her into the fire pit time and time again.

“After that disgusting incident happened, your whole family left without a care. All of you left quite cleanly, but you left behind a pile of messes. No one has the obligation to clean up your mess.

“This is the Fu family, not a place for you to raise a racket. Beat it right now!”

Sun Gongda took a deep breath.

“Don’t look for her for the nonsense in your family in the future. If there’s a next time, this slap today will land on your face at any time!

“You can get lost now!”

Under the eaves, Sun Gongda was about to open his mouth when Fu Chen, who was standing at the entrance, slowly opened his mouth…

“Shi Fang, what are you waiting for? Invite Mr. Sun out!”

Shi Fang immediately nodded. Just as he was about to physically invite him out, Sun Gongda had already flicked his sleeve and left.

He was so furious that he only felt his blood pressure soaring all of a sudden, and his entire body was trembling.

When Sun Qionghua came downstairs, Fu Zhongli and Fu Chen were already sitting down and chatting. She was too ashamed to face him. “Zhongli, Third Brother, lunch isn’t cooked yet. You might have to wait a while.”

She lowered her head and walked to the kitchen.

“After eating, let’s make a trip to the hospital to visit Ms. Qiao,” Fu Zhongli said.

“Mhm,” Sun Qionghua replied.

The two of them had a tacit mutual understanding about the Sun family’s matter and didn’t mention it again.

It was also because of this incident that the Fu family would face hidden dangers in the future.

Sun Gongda was not a kind person to begin with. The facts and evidence of Sun Zhen’s crime were very clear. Coupled with Fu Zhongli’s forceful pressure, there was basically no room for negotiation.

The entire incident shook the capital, and the Sun family’s reputation plummeted as a result.

After knowing that the issue was irreversible, Sun Gongda flew overseas that very night…

***

“President Sun, Qiao Aiyun’s lawyer has charged the young master with attempted murder. Once he is convicted of this crime, what awaits him is a long life in prison.

“Actually, the Fu family and the Qiao family have a good relationship. As long as they’re willing to help, things wouldn’t have come this far.

“Ever since this incident, the company’s shares have already fallen thirty percent. If this continues, I’m afraid…”

Sun Gongda didn’t say anything.

“Actually, you and the Fu family are in-laws to begin with, but now that such a major incident has happened, Second Master actually kicked us while we’re down. Is he planning to separate the Fu family from the Sun family cleanly?”

Sun Gongda glared at the person beside him. The person looked unhappy but didn’t dare to continue speaking.

How could he not be thinking the same thing from the bottom of his heart? It’s fine if he doesn’t help, but he still had to step on us?

My two children are ruined, while nothing has happened to their families…

“By the way, what is the name of the girl who was with Yuxiu back then?”

“Song Fengwan.”

“I’m not talking about her!” Sun Gongda’s head hurt as soon as he heard Song Fengwan’s name. He hadn’t forgotten that this wretched girl had pointed at his nose and scolded him. “It’s that illegitimate daughter of the Song family. She even caused quite a commotion before…”

“She’s called Jiang Fengya.”

“Is there a way to contact her?”

“She’s studying at Yuncheng University. We should be able to contact her. But are you going to…”

“Since our family is having a rough time, everyone should suffer too. I think Yuxiu still can’t quite forget her. That wretched girl from the Song family also hates her to the core. This girl is ambitious and ruthless…” Sun Gongda sneered. “Train her well. In time, she’ll be able to accomplish great things.”

The person beside him felt a chill run down his spine and didn’t dare to speak again.

Now that he had fallen out with the second madam, he wanted to send Jiang Fengya to Fu Yuxiu? It was only a matter of time before she severed ties with him. Even if Jiang Fengya was trained…

Could she win against the second madam and enter the Fu family successfully?

It would probably become very ugly in the future!

***

After Fu Chen returned to the capital, Song Fengwan devoted herself to her studies completely.

Before Qiao Aiyun was discharged from the hospital, Qiao Wangbei and Qiao Xiyan stayed in Yuncheng the whole time, taking turns to watch over her at night with Yan Wangchuan.

Fu Chen had originally wanted to look for Song Fengwan before returning to the capital, but the person who picked her up was Qiao Wangbei. He was a true ruthless person, so Fu Chen really didn’t dare to act rashly and could only return to the capital first.

To Song Fengwan, starting from the second half of her senior year of high school, time passed like a rocket. After the countdown passed a hundred days, the number of days on the countdown board decreased visibly.

Her results had always been very stable. She signed up for the college entrance examination experience and took the first, second, and third mock exams…

The day of the exam got closer…

At this time, she couldn’t slack off at all. Other than sending messages to Fu Chen in the morning and night and occasionally making phone calls, she rarely contacted him.

Meanwhile, Fu Chen spent his days going to work, walking the dog, sending Huai Sheng to and from school, and occasionally tutoring him in his homework.

Fu Chen knew very well that this period of time for senior high school students was very important. It was best not to distract Song Fengwan. He would go to Yuncheng occasionally and come back after a quick glance of her.

Yuncheng was located further south, so the weather got warmer earlier. Actually, after the new year, they couldn’t wear cotton-padded winter clothes anymore. One day, Qian Jiang sent a photo to Fu Chen.

[Third Master, the weather has gotten warmer. Miss Song is wearing a skirt.]

In the photo, Song Fengwan had her hair tied up in a ponytail and was wearing a school uniform skirt and a woolen sweater. She also had a pair of short cotton socks on her legs, making him feel a burst of envy.

[Ms. Qiao has been discharged. Miss Song is very happy.]

[Third Master, a boy at school confessed to Miss Song.]

…

Fu Chen narrowed his eyes, feeling displeased about everything.

As the saying went, people grew haggard while pining away for their love. Fu Chen had also become thinner recently. When he accompanied Old Madam Fu to the Pear Garden to watch opera, she held his hand and said with a stern expression, “Third Son, tell me the truth…”

“Mhm?”

“Were you dumped?”

Fu Chen frowned. “Who did you hear that from?”

“You have no appetite day in and out, and you just sit around in a daze when you’re free. If you like any young lady, go after her! Why are you always staying at home?

“Look at how thin you’ve become recently!

“Did that young lady dump you because she doesn’t like you?”

Fu Chen forced a smile and remained silent. Your daughter-in-law is studying, so I can’t disturb her.
