Chapter 1188: Nothing Is Going to Come Out of This Fuss
Yun Liuli then ran out of the airport with the camera.
This was the first time Jacob Bellucci encountered something like this. He was so furious that fury was surging to the top of his head!
He had just started giving chase when he realized he forgot to take his luggage with him. When he turned back to retrieve his luggage and rushed out, Yun Liuli had gotten into a cab. She rolled down the window and waved the camera at Jacob Bellucci.
“If you want it, look for Sheng Kang to get my address!”
Yun Liuli then asked the cab driver to start driving.
Jacob Bellucci was so mad that he gripped his luggage tightly, the dark expression on his face looking horrid. But he didn’t know who he could take out this anger on. Feeling frustrated, he grasped his luggage handle and retrieved his phone to call Sheng Kang.
When Sheng Kang received this call, he was a little surprised… but felt it made sense!
Yun Liuli’s feelings towards Gu Qingcheng were clear for all to see, and it could even be said that she had resorted to unscrupulous tactics!
With Gu Qingcheng dead now… seeing Jacob Bellucci, who looked identical to Gu Qingcheng, it was understandable that she would do her best to strive for it!
Sheng Kang sighed. He asked Jacob Bellucci not to be anxious, saying that he could head to Yun Liuli’s place to wait for her and see if he could get his camera back for him!
He suggested that Jacob Bellucci returned to the hotel first. If Sheng Kang failed to get it back for him, he could only take Jacob Bellucci there and let him get it back personally…
The helpless Jacob Bellucci could only agree to it. He figured it would be settled by tomorrow night at the latest, so he changed his plane ticket to tomorrow. Unexpectedly, the airline company told him that there weren’t any flights flying direct from China to begin with, and the earliest flight would be the day after tomorrow. Jacob Bellucci had no choice but to hail a cab and go back to the hotel first.
Yun Liuli was a clever one. She didn’t take Jacob Bellucci’s camera back to the Cloud Top Condominium. Instead, she went to the Fu residence!
Yun Liuli thought far ahead…
If she wanted Gu Qingcheng—who assumed the identity of Jacob Bellucci right now—to stay in Haicheng and have some connection with his good pals Fu Huai’an, Lu Jinnan, Tang Zheng, and Bai Jinyu, she had to help make the connection between them!
The best way was to start from Fu Huai’an, letting Jacob Bellucci develop some ties with Fu Huai’an so that when they interacted in the future, it would go more smoothly!
She hoped that Gu Qingcheng would be able to lead a life like before, with friends and a lover. Even if it wasn’t like before… she hoped it wouldn’t be too much worse than that.
Yun Liuli held the camera to her chest tightly. She would definitely bring Gu Qingcheng back to the life he had…
With reddened eyes, Yun Liuli wiped her tears away with her sleeve. Just then, her phone rang—it was a call from Sheng Kang!
She put the call through…
“Hello, Miss Liuli!” Sheng Kang addressed Yun Liuli.
“Mm! Is anything the matter?”
Yun Liuli treated everyone other than Gu Qingcheng with blandness.
“Mr. Jacob Bellucci called me and said… that you accidentally took his camera. I wonder where Miss Liuli is right now. I’ll come over and retrieve it.” Sheng Kang was very subtle in the way he asked, sparing Yun Liuli some face.
“I didn’t take it by accident. I did it on purpose. If Jacob Bellucci wants it… ask him to come to the Fu residence to find me! Otherwise, it doesn’t matter who else comes—I’m not going to hand the camera over!”
Yun Liuli then directly hung up the call.
Sheng Kang was left speechless on the other end of the line.
Since Yun Liuli had gone to the Fu residence, Sheng Kang had better head to the Fu residence first. He could try getting Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu to help persuade Yun Liuli!
After all, Jacob Bellucci was Mr. Gu’s younger brother, so Sheng Kang didn’t wish to put Jacob Bellucci in a difficult position. Therefore, he would rather be the one to do something like this!
If he truly couldn’t handle it in the end, he could ask Jacob Bellucci to personally settle it then.
Sheng Kang changed his clothes and went to the Fu residence.
Before heading to the Fu residence, Yun Liuli called Lin Nuan and asked if she was around…
Coincidentally, Lin Nuan had nothing planned for today, so she was accompanying Yuan Yuan with Fu Huai’an at home.
“In that case, I’m coming right over!”
Yun Liuli didn’t speak in detail over the phone, merely hugging the camera tightly to her chest, acting as if this camera was the key to connecting Jacob Bellucci and Gu Qingcheng’s life.
After ending the call, Yun Liuli leaned against her seat and tried to hold back her smile. She recalled that people at the hotel and airport seemed to have recognized her and were using their phones to take photos of her!
Never mind, what Yun Liuli wanted was to tie Jacob Bellucci to herself and appear before the public like that.
When the cab stopped at the door of the Fu residence, the door guard asked someone to drive a battery-operated cart over to take Yun Liuli inside…
Sheng Kang was in the city, after all, so he arrived earlier than Yun Liuli, who came from the airport.
When Yun Liuli entered the door, she paused in surprise at the sight of Sheng Kang, who was sitting with Fu Huai’an in the living room.
Fu Huai’an was wearing home clothes and gazing calmly in Yun Liuli’s direction. Indeed, he saw a puffed up camera bag in Yun Liuli’s arms.
“Miss Liuli…”
Sheng Kang, who was talking about Gu Qingcheng’s past matters with Fu Huai’an, set down his teacup and got up to smile at Yun Liuli.
“Why are you here? Where’s Jacob Bellucci?” Yun Liuli asked.
Sheng Kang smiled. “Mr. Jacob Bellucci asked me to come and retrieve his camera.”
“I’ve said it, that if Jacob Bellucci doesn’t come over, don’t dream of getting back his camera…” Yun Liuli sounded very firm.
“This…”
Sheng Kang looked awkwardly at Fu Huai’an, hoping that Fu Huai’an could put in a word for him.
With one arm on the sofa, Fu Huai’an played with the tassels on the cushion and only stood up after a while. He said to Yun Liuli, “Liuli, stop messing around. Mr. Jacob Bellucci isn’t Qingcheng. Nothing is going to come out of this fuss.”
Fu Huai’an sounded as deep and intimidating as ever, and he also sounded a little down… as if he was still grieving over Gu Qingcheng’s matter.
Yun Liuli only held the camera more tightly to her chest and said to Fu Huai’an after pursing her lips, “I feel that… this is an opportunity given to me by heaven!”
Fu Huai’an gazed at Yun Liuli with both hands in his pockets. His eyes were unbelievably deep, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.
Yun Liuli’s tears started slipping down her cheeks as she spoke…
“Gu Qingcheng said… that he regarded me as his adopted daughter all these years, so there’s no way he could be together with me!” Yun Liuli sounded choked. “He is gone now, but heaven sent me a Jacob Bellucci. I feel that… this is heaven’s intention, for us to be together! After all, Jacob Bellucci… doesn’t have fatherly affections towards me!”
As Sheng Kang listened to Yun Liuli, he subconsciously looked towards Fu Huai’an. Throughout, Fu Huai’an’s lips remained pursed, and his expression looked deep and unfathomable. He couldn’t interpret what Fu Huai’an’s thoughts were from the way he looked.
As Lin Nuan came downstairs, she heard this. So, she called out, “Liuli…”
Yun Liuli heard Lin Nuan’s voice, and she stared over at Lin Nuan with teary eyes. In a choked voice, she said, “Sister Xiao Nuan…”
Lin Nuan’s gaze was full of heartache for her. She walked to Yun Liuli and raised a hand to wipe away the tears on Yun Liuli’s cheeks, then tucked her stray hair behind her ears…
