Chapter 20: Can’t Afford, Really Can’t Afford to Offend

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“No…,” Zhang Lili’s mother burst into tears. “Third Young Master Fu, I know I was wrong. Please spare us. Miss Shen, I beg you too. We were wrong, truly know our mistake. I apologize to you…” She prostrated herself on the ground, pleading to Shen Jing. Fu Linyuan held Shen Jing’s waist, guiding her to step back.

Fu Linyuan’s gaze fell lightly on Zhang Lili, and with just a fleeting glance, she trembled in fear.

Fu Linyuan asked, “So, you’re Zhang Lili?”

Zhang Lili’s mother, grabbing Zhang Lili’s hand, said, “Lili, kneel down quickly and apologize to Miss Shen! Hurry!”

“Mom!” Zhang Lili screamed. Kneel down to Shen Jing?! How could she live after that?! She went to support her collapsed mother, and nonchalantly said, “Mom, why are you afraid of him? He’s just Shen Jing’s boyfriend, right? Our family doesn’t need to fear him!”

“Shut up!” Zhang Lili’s mother was too anxious. She raised her hand and slapped Zhang Lili across the face, afraid that she would say something disastrous. They really couldn’t afford to offend Fu Linyuan.

Fu Linyuan chuckled. “It seems you haven’t realized your mistakes yet. I don’t care about a small Zhang family, but you’ve offended my wife. What should we do?”

“Young Master, leave this matter to me,” Fu Nan respectfully said from behind. “I am skilled in handling such matters.”

Zhang Lili’s mother was completely panicked. If Fu Linyuan intervened, would their Zhang family be able to survive? If they lost their company, what would happen to her dream of being a rich lady? Her husband wouldn’t let her off either… Overwhelmed by the impact, Zhang Lili’s mother’s eyes rolled back, and she fainted on the spot.

Zhang Lili was at a loss. “Call an ambulance! Quickly call an ambulance to take my mom to the hospital! Mom!” She trembled as she tried to retrieve her phone to make the call, but Fu Nan stopped her with a single motion. Zhang Lili looked up in fear.

Fu Linyuan spoke lightly, “Take her away. Make sure she cleans the classroom. If she doesn’t clean it, pour all those things on her and throw her into the trash can for a roll. Let her have a taste of what it’s like.”

“No, no!” Zhang Lili screamed, but Fu Nan covered her mouth and forcefully dragged her out.

“Fu Linyuan,” Principal Liu frowned. No matter what, Zhang Lili was still a student of their school.

“Don’t worry, Principal Liu. My people know what to do,” Fu Linyuan said casually. ” I can’t just let my wife get bullied like this.”

Upon hearing the word “wife” again, Principal Liu felt a bit uneasy. He opened his mouth but silently swallowed his words. He gestured to his secretary to follow and observe, intervening only if the punishment went too far. He also wanted to back Shen Jing up. Zhang Lili, as a student, needed to be taught a lesson.

“Do you have class later?” Fu Linyuan asked Shen Jing.

Shen Jing shook her head. “No.”

“In that case, come with me,” Fu Linyuan said.

“Mm.” Shen Jing nodded, then looked at Principal Liu. “Uncle Liu, we’ll leave first.”

“Just a moment…” Principal Liu stopped Shen Jing, his gaze shifting between her and Fu Linyuan. “What’s going on between you two?”

“We’ve gotten married,” Shen Jing understood what Principal Liu meant. When Fu Linyuan heard this response, his lips curved with delight.

Principal Liu was speechless, “…You two…Forget it, you guys can go first.” The news was too shocking, and he needed some time to digest it. As he watched Fu Linyuan embrace Shen Jing and leave, Principal Liu fell into silence once again. Did Shen Shouchuan know about his niece getting married? At this moment, he strangely anticipated Shen Shouchuan’s reaction upon learning of this matter.

“Director Ling, handle Zhang Lili’s case according to the school’s regulations. Our prestigious university cannot tolerate such malicious students,” Principal Liu said, throwing down his words as if passing a death sentence to Zhang Lili.

Director Ling hurriedly nodded. He had also been quite surprised today. Shen Jing, that girl, had quite a deep connection with Principal Liu and Fu Linyuan! It was terrifying!

It was almost noon. After Fu Linyuan and Shen Jing left the school, they went to have lunch at Chuanhe Restaurant. Mu Sinian happily skipped over upon hearing of their arrival. Having heard about Shen Jing’s feat at school, he now regarded her with great admiration.

As soon as he saw Shen Jing, Mu Sinian gave her a thumbs up. “Shen Jing, you’re amazing!”
