"Fan Gang, I was thinking of using Yihan and Xin Yu's wedding anniversary as an opportunity to correct your status. Now that you're sitting in the position of CEO of the Lu Clan, do you still want to use your mother's surname?"
Qin Fangang leaned over and flicked the ash from his cigarette. He snorted nonchalantly and said, "When you asked me to come back, you didn't say that I had to change my surname to Lu after becoming the CEO of the Lu Clan. Actually, after so many years, I'm already used to it. Whether I change my surname or not, it doesn't matter at all, right? I'm in the Lu family now. Isn't that enough? "
Lu Shiyun had expected that he wouldn't agree to changing his surname, but he hadn't expected him to reject it so blatantly.
Of course, when he asked him to change his surname, he wasn't being sincere. He was just testing him.
Earlier, when he was at the door, he heard Xin Yu's ringtone. It was clearly coming from his room. At the time, he was shocked. Maybe he had heard wrong, but it was so clear that he couldn't be wrong. He waited at the door for a long time and hesitated for a long time. In the end, he specially called Qin Fangang.
If he wanted to come in, he had to find something to talk about. With something to talk about, he could confirm something else.
"If you really don't want to change your surname, I won't force you. I'm just casually asking for your opinion on this matter."
Lu Shiyun suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and looked calm. The father and son rarely sat together to talk like this, especially when it had nothing to do with work. Actually, both of them had their own ulterior motives, but their faces were as calm as Mount Tai. "Just like you said, you're my son. This is a fact that can't be changed. Fan Gang, I'm still very grateful to you. I know that Yihan's business skills are completely inferior to yours, so your return at this time has solved too many of my urgent needs. I'll always remember all of this in my heart. "
Qin Fangang didn't say anything. His eyes were slightly narrowed from the white smoke. He didn't meet Lu Shiyun's gaze either. He leaned lazily on the sofa and frowned as he smoked. The way he looked sexy and charming.
The person across from him didn't say anything. Lu Shiyun couldn't sit still. He knew Qin Fangang's attitude towards him. From the beginning to the end, he refused to call him "Dad." To Lu Shiyun, this was more or less a grudge.
Lu Shiyun paused and could only continue speaking. "… Don't worry, I asked you to come over. I'll do what I promised you. After a year, I'll let you bring your mother back to D City."
Only then did Qin Fangang raise his eyes. Through the lingering smoke, his gaze finally met Lu Shiyun's faintly discernible smile, which made him appear even colder. "So, you don't have to feel grateful to me. We're actually just taking what we need. My mom has always wanted to return to D City. Now that I can help her achieve her wish, it doesn't matter what I do."
Lu Shiyun nodded with a look of agreement. "… I know I've let your mother down. Fan Gang, it's only right that you blame and resent me in your heart. But I'm very happy for her. She's very filial to have a son like you. "
Qin Fangang only smiled and didn't continue the topic.
Lu Shiyun glanced at him. Thinking about the phone call just now, his thoughts became deeper. Finally, he shifted the topic to Xin Yu. "… When I went to England this time, I met Xin Yu's teacher. He told me that this child, Xin Yu, is actually very smart. Of course, business skills need to be accumulated slowly. But she studied business management in the five years she was in England, so I believe that in time, she will definitely be able to hold her own. What do you think?"
Qin Fangang raised one eyebrow. "You asked me this question in the restaurant downstairs just now. My opinion is still the same."
"…"
Probably because he had suffered two "losses" in a row, Lu Shiyun's old face was a little embarrassed. But fortunately, there was no one else in the room. He coughed lightly and finally stood up with the help of his walking stick. "… Recently, my health has been deteriorating day by day. I think my memory has been going downhill all this time. Fan Gang, in the company, I still need you to be more tolerant. Yihan has a rather unruly personality, but after Xin Yu came back, he has changed a lot. I hope you can help him more. No matter what, he is still your younger brother. Xin Yu is your sister-in-law, so you also need to be more attentive. "
Qin Fangang was very astute. It was impossible for him not to understand that Lu Shiyun had beat around the bush in such a big circle. In the end, he just wanted to say those few words — younger brother, sister-in-law.
What he wanted to remind him of was obvious.
"… It's very late. I also came down to check on Xin Yu and Yihan, but these two children don't seem to be in the room. I don't know where they went, so I'll go up first."
Lu Shiyun was sure that there was no one in the room. There was no trace of a woman at all. He had just entered the room under Qin Fangang's cold gaze, but there was indeed no scent of a man and a woman in the room.
Lu Shiyun had been in the business world for most of his life. It was not like he had never been in a romantic era.
He had also been young once. There were some things that he could still feel after doing it.
Qin Fangang's slender fingers pinched out the cigarette butt. He also stood up and casually adjusted the cotton pajamas on his body. He followed Lu Shiyun to the entrance. At this time, he spoke in a calm voice. "… Just now, you called Xin Yu's phone, right? Her phone is with me. "
Lu Shiyun: "…"
"I have a business partner's number on my other phone. Previously, she left it with me when we went to B City on a business trip. Today, she probably left it in the car. I was too lazy to get it, so I took Xin Yu's phone from her."
Lu Shiyun was deep in thought. He probably did not expect that Qin Fangang would actually explain this matter that had been bothering him. And his explanation … seemed reasonable.
His eyes flashed and he quickly said, "… Oh, it's like this. I said I just called because I heard the sound of a phone coming from your room."
Qin Fangang's thin lips slowly curved into a half-smile.
Lu Shiyun actually hated this kind of gaze. It was a gaze that seemed to control everything.
"Okay, I'm leaving. You should rest early too."
Qin Fangang opened the door for him. He watched as Lu Shiyun walked out and closed the door behind him.
Outside the door, Lu Shiyun turned around. His expression completely darkened. He quickly walked towards the staircase. When he reached the corner, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"… It's me. I'll go back to England to investigate. Yes … Leng Xinyu and Qin Fangang … From the beginning to the end, investigate carefully again."
…
In the room, Qin Fangang held Xin Yu's phone and walked towards his bedroom. He stood in front of the walk-in closet for a few minutes before he reached out and pulled open the sliding door of the walk-in closet.
The woman's petite body was curled up in the corner of the walk-in closet. Qin Fangang's walk-in closet wasn't small. It was filled with men's shirts and suits. The pants weren't on this level, so Xin Yu didn't feel uncomfortable. Her soft and small body was hidden in the walk-in closet that was filled with his clothes. It was like she was in a space that was filled with his scent.
Her face was flushed, and her eyes were a little red. The way she bit her lip charmingly had a hint of wanting to say something.
Qin Fangang's Adam's apple bobbed. The lust that hadn't been released earlier was now in a space that belonged to him. When he saw this woman who seemed to be trapped in it and couldn't get out, he became restless.
He narrowed his eyes, stretched out his long arms, and leaned towards her. In an instant, his upper body was pressed against the corner of the woman's clothes. He smiled and said in a deep voice, "Tonight, you'll sleep at my place, okay?"
Xin Yu knew that Lu Shiyun had already left. She reached out to wipe away the tears on her cheeks. Just now, she had been hiding in the walk-in closet. Even her breathing had been careful. When she heard Lu Shiyun and Qin Fangang's conversation, her heart had leaped into her throat. Especially when she heard Lu Shiyun mention her name, her heart felt like it had stopped beating.
This feeling of guilt was really too strong. She felt ashamed of herself. Why did she do such a thing?
…
Even though in the end, Lu Shiyun didn't seem to have discovered anything, Xin Yu felt that from this moment on, she would have to face Lu Shiyun. The trauma in her heart would be even greater.
She wanted to stand up, but Qin Fangang refused to move. His tall and lanky body supported her on both sides. His entire body seemed to be pressing on top of her. Actually, the weight of his body was on his arms, but he completely blocked Xin Yu's way out.
Xin Yu glared at him with some annoyance. She had been crying earlier, but now that she suddenly spoke, her voice was incomparably hoarse. Because of this hoarseness, her originally soft female voice seemed to have a different flavor. "… Go away, Qin Fangang … mmm …"
Hearing her softly call out his name, Qin Fangang's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly leaned over and kissed her lips …
"Xin Yu, give me one more time?"
"I really don't want it. Qin Fangang, let go of me!!"
Her eyes quickly reddened. She had been in a state of high tension for the entire day. She had never been like this before. It had only been a day, but it felt like a month had passed. She had constantly faced all kinds of rapid changes and had to endure all of it.
She felt especially tired. She was physically and mentally exhausted. She knew that many things couldn't be clapped with one hand. Even if she denied it, her body couldn't deceive her heart. She couldn't reject his touch because she felt too strongly about it.
Otherwise, why was it that Qin Fangang could do it, but Lu Yihan couldn't?
But right now, she really couldn't. She couldn't cross the hurdle in her heart. It was still okay when they were outside, but this was the Lu family. Coupled with the shock just now …
Xin Yu took a deep breath. When Qin Fangang's lips came down, she struggled to move her face away. Her voice was choked with sobs. "… You're only suffering physically, but I'm suffering mentally. Perhaps you don't care about it, but it's what I care about the most. If it's really like what you said … You can satisfy me no matter what I want. Then, can you let me go now? I really can't … Can you think about it from my perspective? "
