Chapter 241: Third Master Attacks Second Sister-in-Law, Very Fierce and Domineering

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sound of the car engine outside had just died down, and after a few seconds, the door opened. The cold winter wind was shrill and dry.

Sun Qionghua entered the house along with the rapid and powerful sound of high heels stepping on the ground.

She was wearing high heels that were more than ten centimeters high, exuding an extremely strong sense of oppression.

At this moment, it was already past eight in the evening. Logically speaking, they should have finished eating long ago. But perhaps because she hadn’t expected the Fu family to hold a banquet today, she stopped in her tracks and called out, “Dad, Mom.”

“Mhm.” Old Master Fu had always been serious in front of juniors, so he only responded lightly.

After hearing that Sun Rui had cut her wrist in the afternoon, she came in the evening. With her rushing to the house at this hour with a cold and solemn expression, she definitely wasn’t simply here to visit.

“Have you eaten? Come sit down and eat.” Old Madam Fu looked at her.

“Second Madam, please take a seat.” Uncle Zhong had already placed a set of tableware for her on the table.

“Second Aunt.” Fu Sinian and Shen Jinye called out to her.

Sun Qionghua acknowledged silently. She had something on her mind and wasn’t in the right state.

When Song Fengwan and Huai Sheng greeted her, she even ignored them.

Fu Chen had his head lowered while peeling the prawns. From the corner of his eye, he saw Song Fengwan’s slightly embarrassed expression, and his dark eyes darkened. Rushing here at this hour, who is she showing this attitude to?

Because of her arrival, the atmosphere at the dining table became stagnant and not as lively as before.

“Second Aunt, what would you like to drink?” Shen Jinye asked tentatively. Sun Qionghua seemed to be in a daze and didn’t hear what he said.

Shen Jinye got up to pour her a drink. Perhaps because she suddenly noticed that someone was beside her, she abruptly raised her arm, knocking over the glass and spilling juice all over the table…

“What are you doing?! Are you blind?!” Sun Qionghua subconsciously shouted.

The juice rolled along the edge of the table and dripped onto her clothes. She hurriedly reached out to wipe it.

She was in a bad mood and couldn’t control herself well when speaking. After speaking, she realized that it was Shen Jinye standing beside her and was dumbfounded for a few seconds.

“Jinye, I’m sorry.” Sun Qionghua felt aggrieved and frustrated.

“It’s fine.” Shen Jinye returned to his seat bitterly. Fu Chen handed him a wet tissue. He lowered his head and wiped his fingers splashed with fruit juice.

Shen Jinye felt uncomfortable about being criticized for no reason, but since she was an elder, he could only swallow his anger.

The atmosphere in the dining room froze in an instant.

Fu Chen put down his chopsticks and looked at her calmly. “Second Sister-in-Law, if you want something, just come at me. Why bother getting angry with a junior?”

“Third Son!” Old Madam Fu furrowed her brows. “There are children.”

They were having a good meal. If Fu Chen flared up, no one would be able to stop him. In the end, they would break up unhappily and make the children feel awkward instead.

“She’s the one who came with a big temper and randomly shouted at a junior without paying attention to the impact. Do I still have to give her face?” Fu Chen pulled out a wet tissue for himself and lowered his head to wipe off the oil stains on his hands.

Sun Qionghua had just returned from the Sun family. In just a few days, more than a billion yuan of the Sun Group’s market value had evaporated. There were rumors in the industry that the Sun family and Fu Chen were on bad terms, so many people started to choose sides and alienated the Sun family.

Sun Rui’s matter was still making waves on the internet, and she was being criticized and cursed at by netizens every day. Some keyboard warriors were even lambasting the entire family. The family had never suffered such humiliation before, and they were all furious.

Sun Qionghua had just met Sun Rui. It had only been about ten days since they last met, but she looked like a completely different person. Her mental state was unstable, and she didn’t even dare to step out of her room. The doctor said that she was too frightened and had some mental problems.

This time, Sun Qionghua rushed back to China because she had heard that Sun Rui had slit her wrist. She had originally wanted to seek justice from the two elders of the Fu family, but she hadn’t expected Fu Chen to be here.

Being provoked by his words right now, she couldn’t hold it in anymore…

“Fu Chen, I haven’t done anything to let you down over the years, right? Do you have to be so ruthless to our Sun family? Little Rui has already cut her wrist to commit suicide, yet you’re still not going to stop?”

Sun Qionghua stood up agitatedly, and when she looked at Fu Chen, her gaze was sharp and threatening.

“Little Rui indeed did something to upset you. I’ve already taught her a lesson, and she has also apologized. You promised me not to pursue the matter. But now…

“You disclosed this matter to the reporters, and now everyone knows that Little Rui doesn’t love herself. Even my elder brother and sister-in-law are being criticized. Is this what you want to see?”

Big families were usually bound together for both good and bad. If her maternal family fell, she would also lose face and even feel that she might not have any say in the Fu family.

After all, Fu Sinian’s mother came from a prestigious family. Since they were both women who married the Fu family, she naturally had the mentality to compete with her.

Sun Qionghua was used to being domineering. Her words were sharp and seemed to come with a cold wind, blowing straight at the others, making them feel suffocated. Song Fengwan looked at Fu Chen worriedly. She was the trigger for Fu Chen dealing with Sun Rui, so if he became enemies with Sun Qionghua’s family, she would feel uncomfortable.

Under the table, she reached out her hand and tugged at the corner of Fu Chen’s shirt. But he remained unmoved.

Fu Chen lowered his head and wiped his fingers slowly and carefully. “Second Sister-in-Law, I didn’t expose this matter. It was Qian Jiang who let it slip.”

Qian Jiang was standing at the side, his face as cold as usual.

It was really not easy following Third Master. Not only did he have to be an assistant and a bodyguard, but he also had to be dragged out to be a shield at critical moments.

Sun Qionghua sneered. “Third Brother, he’s your subordinate. If you didn’t instruct him to do it, would he have dared to do so? Don’t be perfunctory with me.”

“Second Sister-in-Law, do you think I’m targeting Sun Rui on purpose?”

“How can I guess what you’re thinking?” Sun Qionghua sneered. “Perhaps from the beginning, you have looked down on the Sun family.”

These words were not only directed at Fu Chen but also at the two Fu elders.

Old Madam Fu had originally wanted to persuade her. But when she heard this, her face instantly turned cold. She only didn’t flare up because Old Master Fu was pulling her.

These words were really unpleasant to hear.

“I don’t understand what you’re saying…” Fu Chen said casually while wiping his fingers carefully.

“Do you treat Yuxiu and Sinian the same? They’re both your nephews, but there are still some differences, right?” Sun Qionghua was smart and snobbish. Although many things weren’t usually said, she still bore them in mind.

Fu Sinian raised his hand to adjust his glasses.

When the city gates catch fire, the fish in the pond will be implicated as well.

Why am I suddenly involved…

After wiping his fingers, Fu Chen threw the wet tissue on the table. “Second Sister-in-Law, I didn’t want to talk about this openly at first. But since you say that I’m biased, I’ll show you exactly whom I’m biased to.”

Fu Chen took out his phone from his pocket, opened up a few pictures, and handed the phone to Sun Qionghua.

Sun Qionghua took the phone and flipped through the pictures. “I’m talking to you about Little Rui’s matters. Why are you showing me Duan Linbai and Song Fengwan?!”

“Let me take a look.” When Old Madam Fu heard this, she immediately perked up. She took the phone and flipped through the photos for a long time. “These are…”

Based on the photos, the two of them looked very intimate.

“Third Son, what do you mean?” Old Madam Fu didn’t understand either.

Fu Chen smiled. “Sun Rui gave these to me a few days ago and specially used them to threaten me, saying that if I didn’t let her off, she would expose the photos.

“The title will naturally be Linbai and Wanwan dating.

“Because of Song Jingren’s matter, many people are paying attention to Wanwan. If this kind of news broke out, with on Linbai’s public image, it would definitely be misinterpreted as Wanwan seducing him.

“A minor goes to a bar and has an ambiguous relationship with a man. She wants to ruin Wanwan and drag Linbai into the muddy waters as well.

“Wanwan is currently staying at my house, so I’m her temporary guardian, and Linbai is my best friend. Sun Rui obviously wanted to slap my face. Do you think I could continue to let her do whatever she wanted?”

Fu Chen enunciated every word clearly, especially the last sentence.

“Why would Little Rui do such a thing? She…” Sun Qionghua didn’t know about this at all, and Sun Rui naturally wouldn’t tell her family about it.

“Previously, she climbed into my bed. For your sake, I didn’t hold it against her. That day, she went to my house and spouted nonsense. She even tried to threaten and harass me…”

“Ahem—” Old Madam Fu really couldn’t resist and choked on her saliva.

Harassing Third Son?

I can barely imagine the scene.

“I’ve already taught her a lesson! How could she still dare?!” Sun Qionghua was somewhat skeptical.

“If she didn’t touch me, Fu Xinhan wouldn’t have bitten her. Do you really want me to throw the video and photos at the Sun family’s face?”

Fu Chen sneered. “You know Sun Rui’s temperament better than I do. If I hadn’t taught her a lesson that night, I’m afraid she would have already exposed the photos…

“The contents of the photos aren’t true to begin with, and in the end, she would have offended the Duan family and been attacked from both sides. Only then would the Sun family really meet its doomsday. I was saving her!

“Instead of thanking me, you came to question me instead?”

Sun Qionghua’s fingers suddenly tightened, and her nails pierced her palm, but she didn’t feel any pain.

The two of them had never quarreled before, so she naturally didn’t know Fu Chen’s methods. He’s turning black into white and making my family suffer so much, yet I still have to thank him?

What kind of ridiculous logic is this?

“Fu Chen, you mean I should thank you for forcing Little Rui so much that she slit her wrist?”

“Do you really think I’m deliberately targeting the Sun family?” Fu Chen raised an eyebrow.

“Isn’t it obvious? Everyone outside is saying that you want to force the Sun family to death!”

Fu Chen smiled coldly. His gaze was gentle, and he only lowered his eyes and furrowed his brows. When he looked up again, his eyes were cold and sharp, even more bone-piercing than the cold winter wind.

“Since I’ve investigated Sun Rui, I naturally have more than this. If I really want to kill her, even your entire Sun family can be wiped out!” His tone was arrogant.

“You…” Sun Qionghua’s face flushed red when she heard this. “Fu Chen, don’t be too presumptuous.”

“Go back and ask your brother if his business is so innocent that it can withstand investigation? If it wasn’t for Second Brother, do you really think I won’t dare to touch the Sun family?

“She’s tested my bottom line time and time again, and she even went to my house to threaten me. If it wasn’t for your sake, I would have sent her to the police station that night. I could have even made a statement and destroyed her and the Sun family’s reputation.

“You know my methods. If I wanted to be ruthless, would you still be able to stand here and confront me?”

Fu Chen’s personality was arrogant to begin with, but he had become much more restrained after studying Buddhism in the past few years. He was the youngest son of the Fu family, so no one dared to be presumptuous to him.

At this moment, all the juniors of the Fu family were present. Sun Qionghua gritted her teeth and stared at Fu Chen. She was furious and aggrieved, but she couldn’t complain because she was in the wrong and could only take the attacks passively.

This was the first time she was rendered speechless by someone, and she was so angry that her body was trembling.

But at this moment, no one came to dissuade her. So she didn’t even have a way out and could only stand there feeling extremely vexed.

Although they were of the same generation, Fu Chen was much younger than her. Sun Qionghua was furious that he had caused things to become like this.

Shen Jinye had been watching the show in peace and didn’t notice the phone in his pocket vibrate a few times. He wasn’t close to Sun Qionghua’s family, so he was happy that Fu Chen was helping him vent his anger.

He felt that his little uncle still doted on him the most.

After dozens of seconds of silence and awkwardness, Sun Qionghua took a deep breath. “Fu Chen, now that Little Rui has learned her lesson, can’t you stop and let her off? She’s a girl after all. Do you really want to ruin her entire life?”

“She looked for trouble with Wanwan and even took out those photos to try to frame her and threaten me. If I don’t teach her a lesson, I’m afraid she’ll do it again.” Her giving in didn’t make Fu Chen take a step back at all.

Sun Qionghua glanced at Song Fengwan, who had remained silent.

“Why do you keep going against me for an outsider?”

Before Fu Chen could speak, the door of the old Fu residence opened again. A woman in a long black coat walked in with a smile on her face, and she looked at Sun Qionghua with a sharp gaze.

“Second Sister-in-Law, what you said isn’t right. To us, Sun Rui isn’t one of us either. Do you have to throw a tantrum in the Fu family for her, act bossy and arrogant, and even make things difficult for my brother?

“I think your double standard is too overboard…”

Shen Jinye jumped up from the chair and called out obediently, “Mom!”

When the two Fu elders saw that their daughter had returned home, they were naturally happy. But when they saw the man dragging luggage into the house behind her, Old Master Fu pouted.

Why is the Southern Barbarian here too?
