Mr Fu, I Really Love You

“What’s wrong…? Are you afraid that you won’t be able to compete with me? That the man you like will be snatched away by me?” Jian Qiqi raised her eyebrows, her pretty face looking a little smug.

Lu Yunfan’s face was tense, and after a moment of silence, she asked, “So… what you said about liking me and wanting to be friends with me were all lies!”

“Tsk… Everyone says that the younger daughter of the Lu family is pure and innocent. But I think she’s just stupid! Why would I like someone who can suppress me in every way?” The corners of Jian Qiqi’s lips turned up, and she raised her hand to stroke her long hair. “I love attention, so I naturally prefer to be the one in the limelight, not just a second-rater next to you!”

Lu Yunfan knew that it was very stupid of her to look for Jian Qiqi today, but she still did…

To confront her about Lin Chen and to confirm that she was a fake friend.

Previously, her friend, You Jiaxin, had told her that although Jian Qiqi seemed to always be smiling and carefree, You Jianxin felt that Jian Qiqi was a cunning person. However, Lu Yunfan had defended Jian Qiqi, saying that although Jian Qiqi was constantly scheming, she never used any dirty tricks. It was still acceptable.

Lu Yunfan felt sad for this short-lived friendship, but it was nothing compared to the anger that she felt for Jian Qiqi’s scheme towards Lin Chen.

This was the first time Lu Yunfan had ever earnestly liked someone, so she couldn’t tolerate Jian Qiqi’s underhanded plans on Lin Chen.

If Jian Qiqi had sincerely liked Lin Chen like she did, Lu Yunfan wouldn’t mind competing fair and square with her. But she wouldn’t allow her to treat Lin Chen as a tool just to prove something.

Lu Yunfan looked at Jian Qiqi. Her gaze was firm and calm. She said, “You’re not the only smart one in the world. I always knew that you like to trick people, but I never cared because you had never crossed the line. I’ve always tried to accommodate your shortcomings and treated you as a friend. But I’m not about to let you walk all over me, the daughter of the Lu family!”

Lu Yunfan’s expression was solemn. She looked like a different person from her usual playful self.

Jian Qiqi’s grip on the umbrella tightened slightly. She felt that Lu Yunfan, who was wet from standing in the rain, didn’t appear to be pitiable at all. Her aura was a little overpowering…

“As the daughter of the Jian family, your family is your biggest support. So far, the Lu family has been willing to collaborate with the Jians because I’m on good terms with you. But as soon as my parents find out that you’ve offended me, they will undoubtedly give up their cooperation with the Jian family and opt for another company. The construction materials that the Jian family provide have always been problematic to begin with. Now that we’re no longer friends, imagine what the Lu family will do?” Lu Yunfan looked at Jian Qiqi with a heavy gaze.

Jian Qiqi tightened her grip on the umbrella, but she pretended to be calm and sneered. “Are you threatening me?”

Lu Yunfan continued, “I know your weakness…”

She was the daughter of the Lu family, who had been in this business for over a hundred years. They never raised their children to be good-for-nothings. If she couldn’t even deal with a small fry like Jian Qiqi, she wouldn’t be fit to bear the name of the Lu family.

Lu Yunfan was just feeling lonely. Everyone around her only wanted to be her friends because of the Lu family’s status. Other than You Jiaxin, she had no other friends. That was why she was willing to tolerate other people’s shortcomings as long as she could call them “friends.”

“Without the Lu family, there is still the Lin family. If I succeeded in wooing your beloved Lin Chen, would he just stay put and watch helplessly if something happens to my family? Lin Chen’s ability… is something that even your parents acknowledged and praised!” Jian Qiqi smiled.

With a cold expression, Lu Yunfan pulled out her phone, which was still recording their conversation, from her pocket. “What do you think would happen if I hand this to Lin Chen?”

Jian Qiqi’s expression finally changed. She gritted her teeth and said, “Lu Yunfan… what are you after? You’ve been acting dumb in front of me for so long!”

“Projecting your own intent on others is terrifying! Don’t speculate about the purity of the motives of others when you have one yourself!” Lu Yunfan slipped her phone back into her pocket.

“So, you’re threatening me so I won’t pursue Lin Chen?” Jian Qiqi’s face darkened. “Do you think that if I don’t pursue him, Lin Chen will like you? Lu Yunfan, stop dreaming… With a figure like yours, which man would like you? Besides… compared to me, are you really prettier than me? Your figure and looks can’t compare to mine. Do you think Lin Chen would choose you over me because of your family background? Since you like Lin Chen, then you should understand him the most. He’s already outstanding in all aspects, so why would he care so much about family background!”

Just as Jian Qiqi finished speaking, a warm suit covered Lu Yunfan’s head.

Jian Qiqi looked up, stunned.

Lu Yunfan, who had been startled by the suit, was about to flare up when she looked up and met Lin Chen’s gaze.

Lin Chen had just bought an umbrella from the convenience store, and it was already open above Lu Yunfan’s head.

Seeing Lin Chen, who had one hand in his pocket and a cigarette in his mouth, Lu Yunfan’s heart was beating wildly. She was so nervous she didn’t know what to say. The fierceness that she had when she dissed Jian Qiqi earlier had vanished.

Lu Yunfan hugged Lin Chen’s clothes tightly. There was Lin Chen’s scent on them…

Lu Yunfan’s heart beat faster. She gritted her teeth to resist the urge to scream.

Jian Qiqi looked at Lin Chen. She wasn’t sure if Lin Chen had heard what she said earlier and felt very nervous. She pretended to be calm and smiled at Lin Chen. “Brother Lin Chen…”

Lin Chen looked down at Lu Yunfan and asked, “Did you come to Haicheng secretly? Does your brother know?”

Lu Yunfan nodded, then hurriedly shook her head.

Her throat was trembling so badly that she couldn’t say a word…

“Let’s go! Let’s get into the car first!” Lin Chen held onto the umbrella with one hand and grabbed Lu Yunfan’s shoulder with the other, leading her towards the car across the road.

Jian Qiqi gritted her teeth and realized that Lin Chen’s car was just parked nearby!

She was too careless!

Lin Chen must have heard those words. It was clearly not the right time to chase after them, so she had to think of a way to save the situation.

After all, if Lu Yunfan really wanted to use the Lu family’s power to deal with the Jians, and she couldn’t rely on Lin Chen… then she would be letting her parents down.

She had belittled Lu Yunfan too much. Jian Qiqi suddenly felt that her mother was right. How could the daughter of the Lu family be as simple as she seemed?

…

Lu Yunfan, who was seated in the front passenger seat, felt that it was a little unreal. She hugged Lin Chen’s suit tightly in her arms and secretly peeked at Lin Chen’s facial features with her peripheral vision. She couldn’t control her heart anymore. What should she do?

She was so happy that she wanted to scream!

But suddenly screaming was so embarrassing…

It felt like she was in the same car as the idol she had loved for ten years!

Lu Yunfan tried hard to control her heartbeat, but she couldn’t stop herself from hugging Lin Chen’s suit and shaking her arm.

Lin Chen noticed Lu Yunfan’s trembling arm and thought that the young lady had switched on the air conditioner very considerately. He handed the tissue to Lu Yunfan and said, “Wipe your hair…”
