Fu Yan Ting looked at Yan Xiao with disdain, thinking this woman was truly overestimating herself.
Over the years, countless women had tried to get into his bed. Fu Yan Ting had seen all types, and this woman's mere attempt at sowing discord in front of him was audacious.
"Xin Yi."
Fu Yan Ting spoke coldly.
Xin Yi, with a group of bodyguards, suddenly appeared and surrounded Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao had never seen such a display before. Terrified, she couldn't help but swallow and look at Fu Yan Ting, pleading, "Brother-in-law, what are you going to do to me?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to be my woman? If you want to be my woman, you can't be this timid."
Yan Xiao had long heard that Fu Yan Ting's methods were cruel and ruthless, and his subordinates were even more ferocious.
Although Yan Xiao wanted to marry Fu Yan Ting and become the young madam of the Fu family, under the current circumstances, she was truly scared.
Yan Xiao fled in panic.
Fu Yan Ting watched Yan Xiao's retreating figure and couldn't help but sneer.
This Yan Xiao, she wouldn't dare to bother him again.
This Yan Xiao was easy to deal with, but with Shi Kai Nan, Fu Yan Ting would have to use some means.
The next day!
Shi family stocks plummeted, bringing them to the brink of bankruptcy.
This news spread like wildfire through major financial industries.
Shi Wen Wen went to beg Fu Yan Ting for help. In the past, Shi Wen Wen could enter and exit the Fu Corporation at will, but today, the receptionist at the front desk stopped her.
Shi Wen Wen was furious. She looked at the receptionist and haughtily questioned, "Do you know who I am? You dare to stop me? Do you not want to keep your job?"
"Miss Shi, these are the orders from our President Fu. Starting today, no one is allowed to see him without an appointment."
When the receptionist mentioned Fu Yan Ting, Shi Wen Wen's attitude softened slightly.
She couldn't believe Fu Yan Ting would be so cruel and heartless to her.
Shi Wen Wen called Fu Yan Ting. He answered, and upon hearing the purpose of her call, he signaled for her to go to his office.
There were many things he needed to settle with Shi Wen Wen.
Shi Wen Wen, unaware of Fu Yan Ting's true intentions, was overjoyed when he agreed to let her come up.
Today, Shi Wen Wen came to ask Fu Yan Ting for help with the Shi family's matters. But there was something else: the last time, they had parted on bad terms at Fu Yan Ting's birthday.
Since that day, Shi Wen Wen hadn't seen Fu Yan Ting.
She truly missed Fu Yan Ting, wanted to see him. Even if they didn't say anything, just to quietly watch him, she would be content.
Shi Wen Wen arrived at Fu Yan Ting's office, knocked, and pushed the door open.
After a few days apart, Fu Yan Ting was still as handsome as ever.
He was wearing a limited edition Anima suit, sitting there reading documents with great concentration.
Shi Wen Wen gazed at Fu Yan Ting with adoration.
Fu Yan Ting finished reading the document in his hand, closed it, and then looked up at Shi Wen Wen, softly asking, "You're here to see me about the Shi family's affairs, aren't you?"
Shi Wen Wen's heart skipped a beat. Although she and Fu Yan Ting had had a falling out and hadn't seen each other for a while, Fu Yan Ting was still so concerned about the Shi family's situation.
Could this be proof that Fu Yan Ting actually cared about her?
Shi Wen Wen felt a surge of joy. She looked at Fu Yan Ting and said softly, "Yan Ting, you know that the Shi family has been established for a hundred years. If something truly happens, my grandfather and my father won't be able to bear the blow, so..."
"Wen Wen."
Before Shi Wen Wen could finish speaking, Fu Yan Ting interrupted her.
Fu Yan Ting looked at Shi Wen Wen and said word by word, "I did all of this."
Shi Wen Wen thought she had misheard. What did Fu Yan Ting just say?
He said he did all of this, but what did that mean?
"I said, there are many things I don't say, but it doesn't mean I don't know. Fu Hao coming to me with divorce papers for my signature was your arrangement, wasn't it?"
Shi Wen Wen stood frozen. So, all of this that Fu Yan Ting had done was just to vent his anger for Yan Xi.
But she loved Fu Yan Ting so much, why would he be willing to hurt her like this?
"I can help the Shi family through this difficult time. Consider it compensation for the years you've spent by my side. From now on, we will have no further relationship."
"Yan Ting, we are friends. Must you treat me like this?"
Shi Wen Wen's voice held a hint of pleading. She tried hard not to cry because Fu Yan Ting detested women's tears.
So, no matter how wronged she felt, Shi Wen Wen refused to let herself cry.
"The choice is yours. You should know that even without Yan Xi, it would have been impossible between us. If you don't accept my proposal, you'll lose the Shi family as well."
Shi Wen Wen had long known that Fu Yan Ting was heartless.
But she hadn't expected him to be so utterly heartless, capable of being so cruel and ruthless to a woman who had been by his side for so many years.
Shi Wen Wen closed her eyes in despair. After a long pause, her voice was soft and ethereal as she asked, "Yan Ting, is there no other way to resolve this?"
The only response Shi Wen Wen received was silence.
Shi Wen Wen slowly opened her eyes and saw Fu Yan Ting continuing to read his documents, as if she were invisible.
At that moment, Shi Wen Wen knew she had utterly lost. Fu Yan Ting wouldn't even spare her a word.
"Fine. From today onwards, we'll pretend we never met. Please, let the Shi family go."
Shi Wen Wen made this decision, and only she knew how much resolve it took.
After speaking, Shi Wen Wen turned and left.
As Shi Wen Wen closed the door, she heard Fu Yan Ting make a phone call and then instruct, "The boycott of the Shi family can stop."
Shi Wen Wen dared not linger, fearing she would hear more cruel words.
Why did that Yan Xi get to stay by Fu Yan Ting's side all the time?
Although Shi Wen Wen agreed to Fu Yan Ting's terms, she did not agree not to make a move against Yan Xi.
If she didn't act against Yan Xi, she still had another pawn.
Shi Wen Wen's lips curved into a sinister smile, her eyes as fierce and venomous as a creeping snake.
She hadn't wanted to be so cruel to Yan Xi. All of this was forced upon her by Fu Yan Ting.
If Fu Yan Ting hadn't been so heartless to her, perhaps she wouldn't have treated Yan Xi this way.
When Fu Yan Ting returned to the villa, Zhang Ma came forward, looking as if she had something to say.
Fu Yan Ting glanced upstairs and asked, "Is she still making a fuss?"
"Sir, since the young madam was brought back, she hasn't eaten anything. If this continues, I'm worried about her health..."
"Prepare the food. I'll take it up."
Fu Yan Ting didn't have time to change his clothes before telling Zhang Ma to prepare some delicious food and take it upstairs to Yan Xi.
