Bigoted Mr. Fu Lets Me Do Whatever I Want - Chapter 846
Chapter 846: Requesting For Your Company
Qin Shu was wearing a man’s outfit today. It was a pure black woolen sweater set that made her figure look slender. She wore a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, making her look even more languid yet noble.
Precisely because she knew that the man was Qin Hai, plus the fact that the other two men also knew her, she changed her clothes before she headed out.
This was also what Ye Luo was puzzled about. He turned his head to look at Qin Shu. He had seen her in all kinds of men’s clothing countless times.
What he admired the most was that whatever type of man she pretended to be, it would look so convincing that no one would be able to tell she was a girl.
Qin Shu looked up through her glasses and assessed the two men walking towards her. As they brushed past, she accidentally bumped into them.
The man she had bumped into turned his head to look at her. He realized that it was a pretty good-looking young man. He gazed coolly at this man and his casual outlook. He couldn’t be angry with him even if he had tried.
Qin Shu raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her. After a few seconds, she drawled, “Sorry.”
“Watch where you are going next time,” replied the man. With that, he continued on his way, hoisting Qin Hai along with his companion.
Qin Shu stood where she was and watched for a while, then turned around and returned to the car.
She took out her laptop and put it on her lap. Opening it in a hurry, her fingers started flying swiftly over the keyboard.
Recently, the company had been developing a high-tech mini card reader. Information could be obtained face-to-face and did not require any card to be inserted.
Qin Shu had secretly stuck the card reader into the man’s pocket earlier when she had bumped into him, right where he had kept his mobile phone.
The distance between her and the man was no more than ten meters, hence the signal was still within range.
Just as Qin Shu was trying to extract the information on his phone, the man suddenly drove away.
If the distance was too far apart, the signal would be cut off.
She looked at the interface on the computer screen and saw that it was gone. Looking up, she realized that the car had already left.
“Follow him and maintain a distance of ten meters,” Qin Shu ordered.
Reacting quickly, Ye Luo immediately started the engine and drove to catch up.
Once the distance re-entered the ten-meter range, the interface refreshed and popped up on the screen once more.
Qinshu typed furiously over the keyboard. After a couple of minutes, she managed to access the contact details on the other party’s phone.
One of the names, Yin Shi was the one she was most familiar with.
A slight thin figure suddenly flashed in her mind. He was sitting at the bow of the ship. His eyes were covered with pure white gauze, and the gauze strips at the back of his head fluttered with the wind.
The master they were talking about was him, the head of the Crimson Sand Organization?
She recalled the conversation between the two men last night.
If she had guessed correctly, the first female university student should be Mu Ke. After she had suddenly dropped out of school, Qinshu did not pay attention to her anymore.
It turned out that Mu Ke had had a car accident and lost a leg.
This was indeed very much like that man’s style.
But, did he do this for her?
In the end, Yan Jing and Qin Hai did this to seek revenge on her behalf.
That man had already been paying attention to her when they were at Imperial College.
Qin Shu inexplicably felt cold sweat on her palms. She didn’t know whether it was fear or post-traumatic stress, but she felt that this series of events was not simple.
She came back to her senses and said to Ye Luo, “Let’s stop this and go back to Bright Garden.”
Ye Luo glanced at the rearview mirror and complied accordingly. He turned the car around and drove toward Bright Garden.
Back at Bright Garden, Qin Shu sat in front of her desk in the small study. The computer screen was lit up. She held her phone in her hand and stared at the unfamiliar number for a long time.
The last message on it was one that the man had replied to while he was overseas.
It was in regards to Qin Feng being hunted down by the assassins of the Crimson Sand Organization.
A year had passed since.
She recalled last year when she asked if they knew each other in the past. His answer was a straight yes.
She might not have believed it before, but now she was a little convinced that they knew each other previously.
After understanding this, she went back to her phone again and sent a message.
[Baby: You’ve been following me ever since I started attending Imperial College, right? Whatever happened to Yan Jing and the others at Imperial College, as well as Qin Hai, were all instructions you gave to your subordinates.]
Qin Shu’s tone was affirmative. She was certain that he was the one who did it.
When Fu Tingyu saw her incoming message, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smirk. He opened the message to read it in its entirety, his lips still maintaining that beautiful smile.
For her to have caught on so quickly meant that she was even smarter than before.
[Stranger: Yes, I was the one who instructed them to do it. It’s been so long since we’ve contacted each other. Would you like to meet up?]
The other party replied very quickly. After reading the content, Qin Shu’s fingers paused. She wanted to meet him, not to see him but rather to find out from him about the relationship between them and how they met.
It was better not to be like Han Xiao, who owed a debt of gratitude.
Back when she was younger, she had told Han Xiao that she would be his girlfriend if he could find her. It had been so long, yet she had no desire to understand why she had said that.
[Baby: You did all those things because we know each other. I want to know how we met.]
[Stranger: Accompany me to tour the Ancient City of Fengyue.]
Upon reading the content of that message, Qin Shu’s face darkened a little. Every time, he would ask her to accompany him on a tour.
To be honest, she hated having to accommodate such requests to achieve her goal.
If it were any other request, she would have felt it was a little more common.
She did want to know about her past memories, but she didn’t want to compromise on such a request.
In the end, she decided not to reply to the message. She threw her phone on the desk and stopped her train of thought from going further.
As for Qin Hai, she couldn’t be bothered to find out more. She didn’t care if he was dead or alive.
After calming herself down, she started to prepare for her graduation thesis.
The man stood on the balcony and waited a long time for Qin Shu’s reply, to no avail. He concluded that she no longer wanted to reply to him, which also meant that she was unwilling to agree to his request.
He looked at the scenery in front of him and gave a resigned smile. “It wouldn’t take long to travel through the Ancient City of Fengyue, but even this little bit of time is an extravagant hope for me.”
Yin Shi walked over at this time. When he heard his master’s words, he couldn’t help but feel a little sad. Looking at his master’s thin frame from the back, he felt his heart ache a little for him.
“Master, the doctor said that it’s best not to expose your eyes to bright light. The Chinese medicine needs to be applied for a few days, or else…”
There was a risk of blindness, but he did not mention that last part.
“I might go blind, right?” The man completed Yin Shi’s sentence.
Yin Shi lowered his gaze and replied, “Yes, Master.”
“The doctor’s worries are a little unnecessary,” said the man.
Yin Shi raised his head and looked at his master in confusion.
The man chuckled. “I would already be dead by then. Why does it matter if I am blind or not?” he explained.
Yin Shi was shocked. “Master, don’t say things like that. You have to rest and recuperate first,” he said. “I am looking for other ways to detoxify the poison. Even if there is no way to do that, I will find a way somehow. I heard that the Gu worms in Miao Xi can be used.. If all else fails, we will give that a try?”
