Fu Yan Ting seemed to have anticipated Yan Xi opening the car door to get out, so the moment Yan Xi opened the car door, Fu Yan Ting locked it.
He looked at Yan Xi, knowing she couldn't accept this reality.
Fu Yan Ting gently soothed, "Xi Xi, be good."
Perhaps Yan Xi was tired and stopped struggling, or perhaps Fu Yan Ting's words had an effect. Yan Xi sat there obediently, not moving at all.
Fu Yan Ting didn't know how to explain to Yan Xi. Seeing Yan Xi like this, Fu Yan Ting felt more pained than anyone else.
He looked at Yan Xi. Seeing that she had stopped struggling, Fu Yan Ting felt a pang in his heart.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Fu Yan Ting took Yan Xi to the psychologist's office. Fu Yan Ting went to queue for Yan Xi, and Yan Xi sat there. Suddenly, with a glance back, Yan Xi saw the haunting Shi Wen Wen again.
Yan Xi couldn't bother with anything else and rushed over.
Seeing Yan Xi chasing after her, Shi Wen Wen's lips curved upwards, and she whispered, "Yan Xi, I really didn't expect that you, like your mother, are mentally ill."
"You're the one who's sick. Watch your mouth."
Seeing Yan Xi's fury, Shi Wen Wen became even more smug.
Hearing footsteps, Shi Wen Wen knew Fu Yan Ting had come to find Yan Xi. Shi Wen Wen quickly dodged. Yan Xi lunged to grab Shi Wen Wen's sleeve, but Shi Wen Wen dodged so swiftly that Yan Xi couldn't grab her. Yan Xi lost her footing and fell down the stairwell.
Hearing the noise, Fu Yan Ting rushed forward and scooped Yan Xi into his arms.
Yan Xi looked at Fu Yan Ting, ignoring her pain, and said, "Fu Yan Ting, I beg you, believe me this once, okay? I really saw Shi Wen Wen. She just told me that I'm crazy like my mom."
"Silly girl, your mother isn't crazy. She was just being controlled by medication, which is why she became like that. You're just under too much stress lately, and you're having psychological problems. You're not crazy. Don't listen to other people's nonsense."
Fu Yan Ting saw that Yan Xi had fallen so badly, yet she was still saying these things to him.
Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but frown. Regardless of whether Yan Xi was telling the truth, it was good to investigate.
Originally, Fu Yan Ting had brought Yan Xi to see a psychologist, but now Yan Xi had sprained her ankle. Fu Yan Ting had no choice but to take Yan Xi to treat her external injuries first.
After treating her injuries, Fu Yan Ting checked the time. The psychologist had already finished work.
Helplessly, Fu Yan Ting took Yan Xi back to the hotel.
After Yan Xi fell asleep, Fu Yan Ting instructed the hotel staff to retrieve the surveillance footage.
The initial surveillance footage showed nothing. Yan Xi was just talking to herself, even calling out Shi Wen Wen's name.
Later, Fu Yan Ting indeed saw a face that looked almost identical to Shi Wen Wen.
No wonder Yan Xi had said those things to him.
Fu Yan Ting narrowed his eyes.
The real Shi Wen Wen was dead. The woman in front of him was clearly someone who had undergone plastic surgery to look like Shi Wen Wen and was deliberately trying to scare Yan Xi by pretending to be a ghost.
Now, Fu Yan Ting truly believed Yan Xi's words.
Fu Yan Ting glanced at the sleeping Yan Xi. Yan Xi seemed to be having a nightmare, tossing and turning restlessly.
Fu Yan Ting stepped forward and softly said, "Shh, I'm here with you."
Perhaps the sleeping Yan Xi heard Fu Yan Ting's voice. Gradually, her breathing became steady.
Once Yan Xi was sound asleep, Fu Yan Ting got up, took out his phone, and dialed a number.
The phone rang once, and the other party answered.
Their voice was filled with suppressed excitement as they said, "Fu Yan Ting, you finally became suspicious. It wasn't easy."
Hearing this voice, Fu Yan Ting's voice was extremely indifferent as he asked, "All of this was arranged by you, wasn't it?"
Although it was a question, Fu Yan Ting knew very well that no one other than their organization would have arranged all of this.
Fu Yan Ting gritted his teeth in anger. He could remain indifferent and ready to fight no matter how they targeted him, but they shouldn't have messed with Yan Xi.
"Mr. Fu, you are very smart."
Fu Yan Ting frowned. He didn't want their praise. His voice was indifferent and distant as he asked, "Is Yan Yi also in your hands?"
"That's right."
"Speak, what do you want?"
"Mr. Fu is indeed a man of understanding. Working with someone like you saves a lot of unnecessary steps."
Fu Yan Ting sneered. He wasn't happy about their words at all. These people had created a fake Shi Wen Wen to scare Yan Xi and had kidnapped Yan Yi. In reality, their goal was simple: to get Fu Yan Ting's fortune.
"Mr. Fu, I want the Fu Group. As long as you hand over the Fu Group to us, I can guarantee that neither of the Yan siblings will be harmed."
"Your words are baseless. Why should I believe you?"
Fu Yan Ting was not a three-year-old child. He knew the weight of negotiating with these people.
"Mr. Fu, I am a man who always keeps my word and acts on what I say. You can trust me."
"Let's set a time to meet. I want to sign an agreement with you. As long as you do as the agreement states, I will agree to your request and give you the Fu Group."
"Alright."
The other party heard Fu Yan Ting's words and agreed with a soft nod without hesitation or refusal.
Soon, Yan Xi woke up. Fu Yan Ting looked at Yan Xi. Seeing Fu Yan Ting staring at her, Yan Xi asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Xi Xi, I have to go out for a while later. Can you stay alone in the hotel? I'll ask the front desk staff to look after you. If you need anything, just tell them directly."
"Where are you going? Can't you not go?"
Yan Xi was truly terrified and didn't want to be left alone in the hotel. She was really afraid that the haunting Shi Wen Wen would come to trouble her again.
Fu Yan Ting saw through Yan Xi's thoughts and smiled softly. He explained, "Xi Xi, it's okay. I'm going out to discuss a collaboration. I promise I'll come back to be with you as soon as possible, okay?"
Yan Xi was initially reluctant to let Fu Yan Ting go, but Fu Yan Ting also had his own work to do. He was on a business trip to B City. Yan Xi couldn't be so selfish as to monopolize all of Fu Yan Ting's time and not let him have his own time to work.
After some struggle, Yan Xi finally compromised.
