Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 1260 - He Wouldn't Even Be Able to Protect the People He Cared About

The girl who kindly went up to ask Zhou Yuchen how he was was shocked by his ferocious expression. She turned back and looked at her companion, retreating several steps and not daring to say anything else. After tugging at her companion’s sleeves, the duo left together.

Yun Liuli was Zhou Yuchen’s weakness. Whatever Xiao Yuan did to him, he could tolerate it. Except… when it involved Yun Liuli. Zhou Yuchen couldn’t bear that.

He propped his shaky body up with much difficulty, then wiped away the blood on his face, intense hatred written all over his features.

“Zhou Yuchen!”

Guan Nina got out of the car and shouted out to Zhou Yuchen. She grabbed the umbrella from her chauffeur’s hands and ran over to hold it over Zhou Yuchen’s head. “What happened to you?”

Zhou Yuchen’s eyes turned towards Guan Nina, the expression in his eyes startling her. She subconsciously tightened her grip on the umbrella, gently calling out Zhou Yuchen’s name, a hint of fear in her voice, “Zhou Yuchen…”

Seeing Zhou Yuchen remain quiet, Guan Nina said, her pupils quivering, “I believe that the photo going viral on Weibo… isn’t Liuli. You should believe in Liuli!”

Believe… Zhou Yuchen had believed in Yun Liuli from the start.

He even knew how Xiao Yuan’s photo came about…

“Zhou Yuchen…” Guan Nina cautiously tugged at Zhou Yuchen’s sleeves that were dripping with rainwater. “I’ll take you to the hospital, okay?”

Zhou Yuchen didn’t move. Guan Nina’s eyes reddened as she spoke again. “Then, let me send you home, okay?”

Zhou Yuchen didn’t utter a sound.

Guan Nina summoned her courage and held Zhou Yuchen’s wrist, gently pulling him towards her car.

Guan Nina sent Zhou Yuchen back to his previous home. On the way there, she bought Zhou Yuchen some medication and reminded him to apply the medicine after taking a hot shower. She was about to head out the door, but she still felt worried, so she got her chauffeur to buy some raw ginger and searched for how to cook ginger soup on her phone.

The girl never had to do any household chores at home. When she was peeling the raw ginger, she nearly cut her fingers, and when she placed the ginger into the pot, the scalding water splashed out, scalding the backs of her hand and turning it red. Holding back her tears, she finally managed to cook the ginger soup for Zhou Yuchen.

Guan Nina left a note on the dining room table to remind Zhou Yuchen to drink the ginger soup, then closed the door and left.

Yun Liuli was shocked to see this photo too. It wasn’t that Tang Zheng didn’t have hackers working for him who could completely delete this photo. But… deleting would inevitably make her look even more suspicious.

Fang Yan acted swiftly too. Using the official Weibo, she denied that the lady in the photo was Yun Liuli. Also, she sent the photo to photoshop experts in their agency to analyze the composition techniques.

The instant an otaku in the technical department saw this, he recalled the porn flick he saw before, so he found the scene and showed it to Fang Yan. Later, Fang Yan uploaded this photo to the internet to prove that this was photoshopped.

Although this simply seemed like a lewd joke, the technical expert was a loyal fan of Yun Liuli and had just witnessed the girl being proposed to as the “bride’s family”. Now that something so disgusting happened, how could he tolerate it?

Hence, the technical expert checked on the Weibo account and the IP address, ultimately leading him to Xiao Yuan. He did a complete background check on Xiao Yuan’s family.

After obtaining Xiao Yuan’s information, Fang Yan took one look at it and immediately called Little Lu, faxing the information over. Having received Fu Huai’an’s reply, Fang Yan exposed Xiao Yuan on Weibo and declared she was going to pursue Xiao Yuan for legal responsibility.

On Little Lu’s side, he contacted Xiao Yuan’s father and made it clear that Fu Huai’an was the big boss behind Yun Liuli’s agency. With Xiao Yuan so brazenly smearing their agency’s artists, Fu Huai’an felt extremely displeased.

The implied meaning was that if Xiao Qinghai didn’t take his own child in hand, then… they would take him in hand on Xiao Qinghai’s behalf. Of course, Little Lu put it across in a rather courteous manner.

When the dark aura-exuding Zhou Yuchen came out of his room, it was already the next day. No one from the Xiao family called to ask him why he didn’t go back last night. But anyway, Zhou Yuchen didn’t harbor hopes of them doing so, for he never regarded that as his own home. This place was his home!

He put on a black hoodie as he walked towards the dining room. After taking out a bottle of water and drinking two sips, he noticed the note Guan Nina left on the dining room table.

Zhou Yuchen picked it up and glanced at it before setting it down again. He then called the Xiao family.

The one who answered the call was the Xiao family’s housekeeper. The housekeeper told Zhou Yuchen that Xiao Yuan returned after drinking too much last night and fell asleep the instant he hit the sack. Xiao Qinghai returned at nearly 2 am, countenance looking terrible. Without a word, he stormed to Xiao Yuan’s room, only to discover the latter was dead drunk, making Xiao Qinghai’s countenance even worse. He got servants to splash Xiao Yuan awake with water.

But Xiao Yuan was so drunk that even this didn’t manage to wake him up. Old Madam Xiao was startled by this commotion later, and she went over and shielded the unconscious Xiao Yuan in her arms. She said that Xiao Yuan was too drunk to wake up and disallowed Xiao Qinghai from tormenting the child, else he should just torment the old lady as well!

The infuriated Xiao Qinghai could only slam the door and return to his room.

In a very small voice, the housekeeper told Zhou Yuchen that he heard from Xiao Qinghai’s assistant that Xiao Yuan had trifled with the big boss behind a celebrity’s agency by uploading a female celebrity’s photoshopped image. This threatened Xiao Qinghai’s business, so he was furious. The housekeeper told Zhou Yuchen not to come home in the morning, for the atmosphere there was really weird.

The housekeeper also said that Xiao Qinghai had been smoking at the dining room table and didn’t even go to work. He speculated that Xiao Qinghai must be waiting for Xiao Yuan to wake up. However, Xiao Yuan hadn’t woken up yet… After the boy woke up, there was bound to be a big battle. If Zhou Yuchen returned now, he would surely be implicated, so it was better that he hid outside for now.

The housekeeper truly felt heartache for Zhou Yuchen…

Of course, it was because the housekeeper knew exactly why Zhou Yuchen was fetched back to the Xiao family. Even then, Old Madam Xiao and Xiao Qinghai didn’t treat the boy particularly well. There was this one time the housekeeper saw Xiao Qinghai slapping this child in the middle of the night.

Hence, the housekeeper felt biased towards Zhou Yuchen.

Zhou Yuchen thanked the housekeeper before hanging up.

Zhou Yuchen had seen Fang Yan’s declaration to pursue Xiao Yuan for legal responsibility. Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhou Yuchen guessed Xiao Yuan wouldn’t be let off easily, but he hadn’t expected Old Madam Xiao to be so protective of Xiao Yuan.

If Zhou Yuchen guessed correctly, it was probably also Old Madam Xiao who told Xiao Yuan the reason Zhou Yuchen was fetched back to the Xiao family!

After he made sense of things, Zhou Yuchen didn’t hesitate to call Xiao Qinghai.

From now on, Zhou Yuchen wasn’t planning on living aimlessly and allowing others to bully him. After Yun Liuli’s photo incident, Zhou Yuchen understood something—that unless he became strong and powerful himself, he wouldn’t even be able to protect the people he cared about.
