Chapter 747 She Doesn’t Like Me Tagging Along

The Lu family would roll out the red carpet for Lu Meng if she could marry Fu Qingli. No one else in the whole of China could beat her in terms of the aristocracy. Lu Meng could laugh her face off at the mere thought of it.

“You b*tch!” Furious, Chen Qiang grabbed ahold of Lu Meng’s hair and slapped her face for passing the buck. He gave her a dirty look. “You said Lu Li’s children are fatherless b*stards.”

Lu Meng wailed in sorrow while crying for help. “Brother-in-law, save me! Help me! He’s the one who said Guoguo and Lu Zhen are Mr. Shen’s illegitimate children. It was him. He made the accusation. Mr. Shen, he also lamented that you seem to be clinging on to life. He hopes you and your daughter will drop dead soon so the Shen family will be his.”

With his face flushed, Chen Qiang gave her hair a forceful tug and pulled off clumps of her hair. “What did you say, b*tch? Quit the bullsh*t and incitement”

Although screaming in pain, Lu Meng did not hold back as she clawed Chen Qiang’s face. At the same time, she did not forget to seek help from her brother-in-law.

Watching the scene unfold, Fu Qingli’s icy eyes saw a fleeting hint of taunt and disdain. He glanced at Lu Li with a frown.

Was this case with the other Lu family members as well?

Lu Li glared at him. Why was he staring at her? She was not Lu Meng.

Shen Xi clicked her tongue in amazement at the duel between the man and the woman. It sure took all sorts to make the world. The pair was a strange match made in Heaven.

Just like that, Chen Qiang and Lu Meng got into a public brawl.

Lu Meng, believing she was in the right, was not going to back down from retaliating against Chen Qiang. She resorted to tactics commonly used by women – clawing, scratching, and

biting.

Chen Qiang was a man after all. Since he was stronger than Lu Meng, it did not take long before Lu Meng was subdued. Holding her by the hair, he was about to ram her to the chair.

Everyone there watched the circus without any intention to stop them. Even Shen Jiugui held his tongue as he solemnly looked on.

In the end, Lu Ning could not stand by and watch any longer. Lu Meng would be beaten to death at this rate. No matter what, she was family and his cousin. Lu Ning charged right in there and held Chen Qiang’s arm down.

Chen Qiang was on a warpath to kill Lu Meng. Livid by the abrupt interruption, he yelled, “Are you looking to get some too, boy!”

Lu Ning stared at him. “Mr. Chen, you’re making yourself look bad by hitting a woman in public.”

Chen Qiang’s actions only proved that he was not a man. Shame on him. Lu Ning was aware that his cousin had found herself a sugar daddy. Instead of feeling ashamed, the Lu family took pride in Lu Meng as she could save the family from a financial crisis.

His second uncle’s family especially, would not stop bragging that his daughter found a good man as if it was the most honorable thing.

Lu Ning was tempted to show them the true colors of the good man they spoke so highly of.

Without a word, Chen Qiang turned red in the eyes and shifted to pour his fury at Lu Ning.

“Cut it out.” Shen Jiugui broke his silence at last with a resounding yell. He looked at Chen Qiang. “Have you no shame?”

Chen Qiang really stopped this time. He gave Lu Meng the evil eyes while rage was still building up inside.

What did he do to deserve this? Because of this b*tch, he was driven out of the Shen family and even stepped on Fu Qingli’s toes. He was ruined and about to lose everything!

“Dad.” Crying his eyes out, Chen Qiang fell on his knees with a thump. “I know I’m wrong. The d*mn b*tch seduced me and I couldn’t hold it in my pants. It was her. I love Furong with all my heart. Dad, please forgive me just this once. You don’t want Lil’ Xin to lose her father, right?”

Chen Qiang had it in his plans to take on Shen Jiugui, seeing that the latter had illegitimate children. It would put them in a position where no one was better than the other.

Yet now, it had been verified that Lu Li’s children belonged to Fu Qingli. Chen Qiang would be killed by Fu Qingli for saying what he said. The only person who could save him now was the old fool.

For the old fool to hand a valuable thing like the centurion bank card to Lu Li, it was enough to show that they were close. Chen Qiang might live to see another day if the old geezer put in the good word.

Without paying Chen Qiang any more attention, Shen Jiugui turned on his heel and walked toward Lu Li with the cane. He first nodded at Fu Qingli before turning to Lu Li with the utmost respect. “Ms. Lu, we should get the snow lotus and leave. Chen Qiang has nothing to do with the Shen family now.”

In other words, everyone else was free to deal with him. There was no need to hold back for his sake.

Color washed off from Chen Qiang’s face as he bitterly cried, “Dad, you can’t do this to me. I know I’m at fault. It’s my mistake. Please forgive me. I won’t ever do it again.”

The godd*mn fool! He had already admitted to his mistake. What more did the old geezer want? Yes, Chen Qiang had a mistress, but so did all the wealthy men in the world. Must the old fart spare him no mercy for a one-time fling?

Shen Xi furrowed her brows as she looked at Chen Qiang with a look of disgust. There were many that knew no shame in the world, but Chen Qiang was on a whole new level of shamelessness.

He was the one who cheated and yet he made excuses in hopes others would forgive him.

Situ Zhangyou gave Chen Qiang a look of pity before gazing at Fu Qingli. Someone was about to get it. Fu Qingli was known to hold onto grudges.

Fu Qingli was a perfect gentleman in public to live up to the Fu family’s honor but behind the scenes… He was just as ruthless and cruel as Boss.

Chen Qiang was done for. Fu Qingli did not give Chen Qiang the time of the day, nor did he leave with Lu Li. He waited for Shen Xi and left with her.

Once at the door, Shen Xi asked, “You should go after Ms. Lu.”

Why was Fu Qingli with her when he should be with Ms. Lu and the children? An insensitive and unromantic guy like Fu Qingli deserved to be single for the rest of his life. He should be jumping at the opportunity to spend time with them.

“She doesn’t like me tagging along.” With dark eyes, Fu Qingli watched as the woman and kids quickly disappeared out of his sight. Deep inside his eyes, a quick sense of loneliness flashed by.

Shen Xi gave him a piece of advice. “Sometimes, you can’t be too reserved. You need to have thick skin when it counts. How would you know she won’t like it if you don’t chase after her? Or are you not interested in her that way?”

She then observed Fu Qingli’s expression to read his thoughts on this.
