Dangerous Liaisons: Master Fu's Fury

Chapter 24 Do I need to report Mr. Fu’s itinerary to you?

When the younger generations saw the heads of the Shu and Fu families arriving, they all stood up from their seats to show their respect.

The elders walked to the first row, accompanied by several important leaders from important political departments.

"Aze, come meet your Uncle Fu!"

With a smile on his face, Shu Tengchang cordially introduced Xiang Ze to Fu Rongbai.

"Rong Bai, this is the son of the Xiang family in Beijing, and also the fiancé of my second daughter, Xiang Ze."

"Uncle Fu, hello!"

Xiang Ze bowed slightly, showing deep respect.

"Well, good! He's a handsome man at first glance!" Fu Rongbai responded with a smile, and his eyes swept to Shu Xingwan beside Xiang Ze, "A talented man and a beautiful woman, they are a perfect match."

"Uncle Fu has good taste!"

Xiang Ze cleverly amused every elder present, making them laugh heartily.

When Fu Rongbai praised Xiang Ze and Shu Xingwan, Fu Yuzhou sneered. The voice was not loud, but it accurately entered Shu Xingwan's ears.

Shu Xingwan tried hard to suppress the urge to glare at him. With a half-smile on her lips, she listened quietly to everyone's greetings.

After the elders had taken their seats one by one, the younger generations returned to their seats.

"Aze, you haven't heard our band's performance yet, right?"

Shu Tengchang showed a gentle smile, turned his head and leaned towards Xiang Ze, starting a conversation with him.

“I’ve paid attention to it before, but this is the first time I’ve listened to it up close.”

Xiang Ze has always had little interest in symphonies and rarely pays attention to such performances.

If he hadn't come here with Shu Xingwan, he probably wouldn't have sat here and wasted time.

"This orchestra is owned by the Shu family and has gained international fame. Sister Wanwan is the principal violinist of the orchestra. Enjoy the musical feast tonight."

When mentioning Shu Zhiyan, Shu Tengchang's eyes always reveal deep pride involuntarily.

"Yes, Uncle!"

Xiang Ze agreed with a smile on his face.

He held Shu Xingwan's hand and squeezed it gently.

In response to Xiang Ze's sudden action, Shu Xingwan turned his head for unknown reasons and cast a questioning look at Xiang Ze.

Why were he and Shu Tengchang talking to each other and why was he pinching her hand?

When Shu Tengchang turned around to communicate with Fu Rongbai beside him, Xiang Ze quietly approached Shu Xingwan and whispered softly in his ear.

"In my heart, you are much better than Shu Zhiyan."

"Thank you!"

After a brief moment of daze, Shu Xingwan followed Xiang Ze's movements with his eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Ze was worried that she would feel sad after hearing Shu Tengchang's praise of Shu Zhiyan, so he came to comfort her.

He is thoughtful.

But she didn't care about such things.

Who Shu Tengchang likes and who he praises has nothing to do with her?

Fu Yuzhou's eyes inadvertently caught the subtle interaction between Shu Xingwan and Xiang Ze. He couldn't help but hold the phone tightly, and his knuckles turned white due to the force.

He clenched his back teeth tightly and tried hard to suppress his anger, thus avoiding throwing Xiang Ze out of the door on impulse.

Shu Xingwan felt the change in the aura of the man next to her, and her scalp suddenly went numb.

This guy must have seen Xiang Ze pulling her hand.

She decided to turn a blind eye and just give up. With so many people around, she thought Fu Yuzhou would not do anything excessive.

But she ultimately underestimated Fu Yuzhou's possessiveness.

As everyone entered the venue, the bright lights in the venue began to fade slowly.

When Shu Xingwan turned her eyes to the stage, a big hand reached out to her back and rubbed her waist. Her body stiffened and her face changed.

She glanced at Xiang Ze nervously, and saw that he was staring intently at the direction of the stage, and seemed not to notice her abnormality. She then breathed a sigh of relief.

"what happened?"

Xiang Ze was keenly aware of Shu Xingwan's gaze. He turned his head and asked softly with a gentle smile.

"It's okay, I just worried you'd get bored!"

Shu Xingwan remained calm and tried hard to find a suitable excuse.

"At worst I can just take a nap!"

Xiang Ze shrugged nonchalantly, his tone sounding unusually relaxed.

"All right!"

Shu Xingwan noticed that Fu Yuzhou seemed to be dissatisfied and lightly pinched the soft skin on her waist. Then she rushed towards Ze, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she sat up again, her eyes focused on the stage again.

Is this Fu Yuzhou crazy?

What if someone saw him touching her in public?

Shu Xingwan was in no mood to go to the concert.

She crossed her arms and tried to secretly grab Fu Yuzhou's hand with her right hand, but he held it in his palm and she couldn't pull it out.

Shu Xingwan was really about to be driven to collapse by Fu Yuzhou and could only endure his touch in fear.

Feeling that Shu Xingwan was no longer struggling, Fu Yuzhou showed a triumphant smile on his face.

Shu Xingwan slowly relaxed, but her mind was still in a mess.

She thought of the days she spent with Fu Yuzhou.

Fu Yuzhou would take Shu Xingwan to concerts and plays. When the two of them sat in the audience, he would hold her hand like this, and while they enjoyed the show, he would play with her fingers, just like now.

It seems like everything has changed, and yet it seems like nothing has changed.

This made Shu Xingwan a little dazed.

But she quickly shook those thoughts out of her head.

The revolution has not yet succeeded, and I cannot fall in love again.

Shu Xingwan didn't listen to any of the songs played in the entire concert.

Fu Yuzhou was not satisfied with just holding Shu Xingwan's hand and hugging her slender waist. He wanted more.

In order to get his wife back as soon as possible, Fu Yuzhou has put the cancellation of the engagement on the agenda.

He took Shu Xingwan's feelings into consideration and began to keep his distance from Shu Zhiyan.

He knew that after the concert tonight, he would be arranged to go on stage to give flowers to Shu Zhiyan in order to consolidate the relationship between the Fu family and the Shu family.

Oh, what does the Fu family have to do with him?

Fu Yuzhou pinched Shu Xingwan's soft little hand and left before the performance ended.

Shu Xingwan looked at Fu Yuzhou's leaving back and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, Shu Zhiyan's assistant came to look for Fu Yuzhou, only to find that he was no longer in the audience.

The young assistant Xiao Qing's heart instantly tightened.

Xiao Qing hurriedly hid in a quiet passage and quickly dialed Fang Yuanzheng's number.

"Hey, Special Assistant Fang, where's President Fu? He's going to go on stage and give Sister Yanyan flowers!"

As soon as the call was connected, Xiao Qing anxiously asked about Fu Yuzhou's current whereabouts, with a hint of complaint in her tone.

Sister Yanyan’s fiancé is so unreliable. How could he just disappear in such an important occasion?

"Do I need to report Mr. Fu's schedule to you?"

When Fang Yuanzheng received the call, he glanced at Fu Yuzhou who was resting with his eyes closed, and his voice revealed a hint of displeasure.

"No, Assistant Fang, you misunderstood! I was just too anxious. Please tell Mr. Fu that the concert is about to end and ask him to come and give flowers to Sister Yanyan."

Xiao Qing stamped her feet anxiously. Although she tried hard to suppress her inner impatience, she still had to beg Fang Yuanzheng humbly.

However, deep in her heart, Fang Yuanzheng's ancestors had already been "greeted" over and over again.

"There is an urgent matter in the group, and President Fu has to go back to deal with it. Regarding the flower presentation and the celebration party tonight, our President Fu will not attend."

Without waiting for Xiao Qing to speak, Fang Yuanzheng hung up the phone.

"Hey Hey hey?"

The shrill "beep beep" sound continued from the other end of the phone, which made Xiao Qing so angry that she almost wanted to throw the phone to the ground.

However, she quickly regained her senses. This was the phone she had bought on installment. If it was really broken, not only would she have to pay back the installment, but she would also have to buy a new phone out of her own pocket. It was not cost-effective at all.

So she took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and decided to send a message to Xu Yufang to discuss what to do next.

"What's all this about?"

Xu Yufang, who was immersed in the wonderful performance, suddenly felt her cell phone vibrate. She frowned slightly, quickly picked up the phone and glanced at it, then her face changed drastically, and she nervously turned sideways to whisper to Shu Tengchang.

Shu Tengchang glanced at Xu Yufang, with anger that was difficult to conceal surging in the depths of his eyes.

What happened to Fu Yuzhou?

Isn't this a slap in the face of the Shu family?

The original plan was to take advantage of the opportunity when Fu Yuzhou went on stage to present flowers to announce the marriage of Fu Yuzhou and Shu Zhiyan, but now everything has gone wrong.

Shu Tengchang clenched his fists angrily, thinking quickly in his mind, looking for the next strategy.

You can't let Fu Rongbai, an elder, go on stage to present flowers to a junior!

So, it seems that we have to find another way...
