Yan did not expect that Liang Yuanze would find his way to Fu Shenxing's place. Her whole body was trembling, but her voice was unusually calm. She said, "Yuanze, calm down, where are you? I'll come find you right away."
He did not answer, just kept asking her, "Tell me what's going on, Yan Yan, is he the person you met at school?"
"Yuanze, where are you?" Yan struggled to control her emotions and said, "If you keep suspecting me like this, I will get angry."
Liang Yuanze replied, "I'm downstairs at the headquarters of Fu's Enterprise."
This answer startled Yan, she was really afraid that Liang Yuanze would do something impulsive. Her colleagues in the room were secretly watching her, but she couldn't care less at the moment, she urgently said, "Don't do anything rash, okay? Wait for me there, no matter what happens. We'll talk when we meet."
But he didn't respond, just hung up the phone.
When she called again, he refused to answer. Yan couldn't help but feel panicked and confused. She drove to Fu's building and found Liang Yuanze's car downstairs, but he was not nearby. She anxiously called his phone. At first, it was not connecting, and when it finally did, she heard Ah Jiang's voice. His tone was indifferent, and without waiting for her to ask, he said, "Miss He, Liang Yuanze is at Mr. Fu's place."
For a few seconds, Yan felt like her heart had stopped beating. She opened her mouth but couldn't speak, and after a pause, she managed to say hoarsely, "Don't act recklessly."
Ah Jiang continued, "Mr. Fu invites you to come up as well."
Yan had been to the building of Fu's Enterprise before, when she came to save Xu Chengbo, but going there again now felt like a lifetime ago. The secretary in the CEO's office had changed, probably having received prior instructions, and she was waiting outside the elevator early, respectfully leading her to the CEO's office.
The office was extremely spacious, almost empty. Fu Shenxing and others were sitting in the lounge area. he was sitting deeply on the sofa, Ah Jiang stood behind him, and Liang Yuanze sat in a chair with his back to the door, one burly man in a black suit was on each side of him.
"Yan Yan!" He saw her and cried urgently, trying to stand up from his chair, but as soon as he moved, the two burly men on either side forcefully pushed him back down. Fu Shenxing frowned slightly and said softly, "Noisy," and one of the men immediately took out some tape from his pocket and taped Liang Yuanze's mouth shut.
Yan walked up to them, trying to calm herself, and saw that apart from some slight swelling on Liang Yuanze's face, there were no other obvious injuries on him. Only then did her pounding heart ease a bit. She turned to Fu Shenxing and asked him as gently as possible, "Can you let him go now?"
Fu Shenxing slightly curled his lips and said calmly, "Yan, you need to understand that it was Mr. Liang who came to my office like a mad dog and attempted to attack me. My bodyguards temporarily restrained him, I did not intend to detain him."
She raised her brows in anger and demanded, "He attacked you? Then why are all the injuries on him?"
"Yeah, he attacked me." Fu Shenxing chuckled lightly, then added, "But he couldn't beat me."
Liang Yuanze let out an angry roar from his throat, struggling hard but was held down by two men in black, unable to move. He Yan looked at him in this state, trying hard to suppress her own sadness and anger, and calmly looked at Fu Shenxing, saying, "Let him go, Fu Shenxing, let him go."
The smile on Fu Shenxing's face gradually disappeared, and after a while, he suddenly sneered and pulled the corners of his mouth, "Alright, I'll let him go. But will he obediently leave at your command?"
He Yan didn't answer him, she just walked step by step to Liang Yuanze, squatted down, and gently held his knees, softly saying, "Yuanze, let's leave here, okay?" There were tears in her eyes, and her gaze was full of pleading. "Whatever it is, we can talk outside. I will tell you everything. Please just leave with me, okay?"
His eyes slowly turned red, and he finally stopped struggling, nodding at her.
The two bodyguards looked at Fu Shenxing and, seeing him nod, released their hold on Liang Yuanze. He Yan hurried forward, tore the adhesive tape from his mouth, helped him up from the chair, and walked out with him.
The hands of the two people clasped together, their figures leaning on each other, and they moved almost in unison. For some reason, all this made Fu Shenxing feel uncomfortable. Just as the two were about to reach the door, he suddenly called out, "He Yan." Both of them stiffened at the door, and he smiled before intentionally stopping for a moment, then slowly said, "Come find me tonight. I want you."
"Jerk!" Liang Yuanze suddenly turned around, wanting to rush back and punch Fu Shenxing. He Yan was scared, hurriedly hugged his waist from behind, desperately holding him back, begging him in a pained voice, "Yuanze, Yuanze, leave with me, please, I'm begging you."
Liang Yuanze shook her off several times, but she clung to him tightly, and could only angrily point at Fu Shenxing, cursing, "You're a jerk, a jerk!"
A flash of killing intent passed through Fu Shenxing's eyes. He squinted and said lightly, "Liang Yuanze, it's best you not point at me."
"Yuanze!" He Yan couldn't help but cry out, tearfully hugging Liang Yuanze's waist, pressing her face to his back, and crying as she pleaded with him, "Yuanze, come with me, don't cause a scene here. I'm embarrassed, I feel very embarrassed. Let's keep some dignity, okay?" She could barely choke out the words.
Liang Yuanze stood still for a while, then turned and hugged her to his chest, saying in a hoarse voice, "Okay, I'll go with you."
They left like this, arm in arm, silently, until they reached outside the Fu's building. Liang Yuanze then put his hand on He Yan's shoulder, stared at her and said word by word, "Yan Yan, tell me, what's going on? Tell me the truth, don't try to fool me. This isn't love, deceiving is worse than hurting."
At this point, she had to give him a reasonable explanation. He Yan looked up at him, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, I'll tell you."
She drove his car, and the two returned home together. In the living room, she told Liang Yuanze about everything from the first time she met Fu Shenxing. He was first shocked, then angry, and eventually his emotions were almost out of control. He gripped her shoulders forcefully, "Why did you keep this from me? Why didn't you go to the police?"
But she appeared calm to the point of numbness and asked him in return, "How could I go to the police? Tell them that Shen Zhijie didn't die and turned into Fu Shenxing? Would anyone believe that? What about evidence?"
"Why didn't you tell me then!" he exclaimed angrily.
She gave a bitter smile, "Tell you, and then ask you to go fight him? Yuanze, if it weren't for what happened today, I'd rather have you hate me and I wouldn't tell you about these things. You don't know how terrifying he is."
Rage robbed Liang Yuanze of his reason, and he angrily yelled out, then stood up and kicked over the tea table, "I don't believe it! I don't believe a criminal can act so recklessly! We're going to the police! Yan Yan, we're going to the police!"
