Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 373: God Fu Returns to the Jianghu

At times like this, if Su Wanxin didn’t give him a satisfying response, he would definitely not let it go.

So after weighing the consequences, Su Wanxin decided to bite the bullet and tell the truth.

"No need, I remember now." She sensibly gave her answer. "Thought you were good-looking, couldn’t control myself."

"..."

Fu Shihan was unusually at a loss for words, speaking of lust provoked by sight so openly, his Wan God indeed...

has his style.

All these years, it wasn’t for nothing that he taught.

Su Wanxin rarely acted so shamelessly, making herself blush and feel flustered, as if she were drunk.

Fu Shihan knew when to stop, not daring to push too far, afraid that she would burst into a rage if prodded too hard, which wouldn’t be good.

So he verbally took advantage of her a few more times, then changed the subject and stopped teasing her. However, because of her kiss, his heart felt unbearably itchy.

He felt that he probably couldn’t wait until his birthday.

After going upstairs, he took a shower right away, coming out with a chill on him, not forgetting to complain to her.

"Waited in the freezing cold for forty minutes, took a cold shower for forty minutes. If I catch a cold, it’s definitely not because my body is weak, but because you tortured me."

Su Wanxin felt guilty and didn’t speak, only pretending to be dead with her eyes closed.

Seeing her reaction, Fu Shihan scoffed, got into bed, and turned off the light.

The room was dead silent, neither of them felt sleepy. A small gap separated them, like a barrier.

Su Wanxin lay beside him, her fingertips tense, clutching the blanket, staring out the window at the moonlight. After a long time, she still didn’t dare to continue flirting with him.

He had waited for her for three years; she didn’t want him to lose. That such a proud man as him was willing to lower his head for her, was her fortune.

She knew she was sometimes excessive, for many reasons.

There was her inferiority complex, and then there was the woman’s unique ’saying one thing but meaning another,’ commonly known as being fickle.

In front of him, she always felt inferior, even though she had always been chasing after his footsteps, attending the same schools he did, doing the same things he did, and challenging the records he maintained.

But the issue of her origin was truly a fatal problem. No matter how excellent she was, when spoken of, she was nothing more than an orphan adopted by the Fu Family.

One sentence could knock her from the clouds down to the ground.

If she could survive, she would not harm him, and she would definitely work hard to treat him well.

She would take the initiative, go to work at the Fu Family company, accompany him in what he wanted to do, and bear him another child.

She would be good; if only she could get past this calamity, she would do anything.

During the endless night, Su Wanxin thought and dozed off intermittently. When morning came, she and Fu Shihan left the house one after the other for work, and she received a call from Chen Lei at the office.

Chen Lei had still decided to take a vacation, and after spending a leisurely week, he planned to find Fu Shihan to report and complain about Su Wanxin and Zhong Xian staying in the office for three hours.

Su Wanxin didn’t know his thoughts, assuming that he was just stressed from work recently, so she let him relax and then took over his work.

That afternoon at two o’clock, as soon as Chen Lei and his family arrived at the International Airport in a neighboring country’s city, he received a phone call from a colleague.

"What’s gotten into Su Wanxin lately, why is she butting heads with President Fu?"

The direct question from the other end caught Chen Lei off guard: "What happened now?"

"What? You don’t know?"

"I had some things to take care of abroad, just got off the plane."

"Oh, it’s nothing much, just that God Fu has reappeared in the scene. That account of his that hasn’t been active in years had a movement today, heard it was because of a bet with your company’s Su Wanxin, competing over who has better returns within half a month."
