There was a small white scar on Fu Yanxiu's wrist, which looked like a recent injury.

"When I saw you being... auctioned on the stage, I was so numb that I stabbed myself hard with a pen, and then I forced myself to rush forward without impulse."

"I know that Fu Zhixiu deliberately used you to test me. However, if I were exposed at that time, your future would be difficult."

"Buckwheat, I know that by saying this, I am making excuses for myself, but that's what I really thought at the time."

Su Qiao believed what he said.

A proud man like Fu Yanxiu, who has been in a high position for a long time, does not even bother to lie, and there is no need.

Ever since he learned that his marriage to the Zhao family was entirely to fight against Mr. Fu and other forces in the family.

To put it bluntly, it was just a smoke bomb. He was silently expanding his power. By the time everyone thought he was relying on the Zhao family, in fact, he was already strong enough.

Now, as he said himself, the Fu family is completely decided by him.

Then there was no need for him to lie. The only reason why Fu Yanxiu talked about what happened before was because he really wanted to explain to Su Qiao.

Mr. Fu has always disliked Su Qiao. To be precise, he didn't like Lin Qing, so he also disliked Su Qiao.

That's right, before Uncle Fu was injured, Lin Qing and Uncle Fu were in two different worlds.

Even if Yan Min divorces him, even if Uncle Fu looks for him again, he will not find someone with Lin Qing's background.

And Uncle Fu has become like that. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a useless person. In Mr. Fu's view, Lin Qing is just trying his best to get women into a wealthy family.

She is still a fishing girl with a tow bottle, even worse.

It's natural to look down on her, so Lin Qing and Su Qiao spent those years in the Fu family.

Letting an ex-wife and her children take the lead in isolating and bullying Su Qiao and her daughter, even if they are in charge, they are still partial.

He didn't regard Lin Qing as a human being at all.

If Fu Yanxiu had really helped when they were on Fu Zhixiu's ship, Fu Zhixiu and Yan Min would have made a big fuss over this matter.

By then, not only would Fu Yanxiu be in a difficult situation in the Fu family, but he would also be unable to save Su Qiao. Su Qiao and Lin Qing might be destroyed.

It's possible that Mr. Fu destroyed it himself.

Su Qiao knew this well.

So she listened to Fu Yanxiu's explanation.

What's more, he has been helping her during these days.

Help her find evidence, help her restore her reputation, and also help Lin Qing.

He even said that he would help Lin Qing and Uncle Fu.

"Now grandpa has nothing to do with me. I have uprooted Yan Min and Fu Zhixiu's foundation in the Fu family." Fu Yanxiu said, "If you are willing, I can marry you now."

Su Qiao was stunned. She didn't expect Fu Yanxiu to say this suddenly.

She pulled her hand out of Fu Yanxiu's hand almost instantly.

"It's too late, I have to go back." Su Qiao turned to leave, and Fu Yanxiu felt inexplicably panicked.

If he had a little confidence before, now he has no confidence at all.

The Zhang Wen I saw just now matches Su Qiao very well, both in appearance and family background.

Yes, he investigated that man in a despicable manner.

But if he doesn't investigate, he's afraid. He doesn't know what he's afraid of, but he's just afraid.

Now that he looked at Su Qiao's back as he turned away, he finally knew what he was afraid of.

That Zhang Wen and Su Qiao are a perfect match. Su Qiao might really choose him.

Su Qiao hadn't walked out a few steps when Fu Yanxiu picked him up.

Su Qiao let out a low cry, subconsciously hugged Fu Yanxiu's neck, suppressed his temper and said, "Put me down."

Fu Yanxiu looked down at her, said nothing, and walked straight to his car.

It was only dusk now, and there were people coming and going around.

Su Qiao felt so embarrassed that she pulled Fu Yanxiu's clothes hard to ask him to put him down.

Fu Yanxiu only said, "Either you cover your face and don't let others notice you, or you shout loudly and let everyone see you. Anyway, I won't let you go."

Su Qiao shut up, she chose the former.

Fu Yanxiu, this madman, can do anything.

Just like that, Fu Yanxiu was carried into the car, and before she could resist, she was put into a seat belt. The man even threatened, "Don't even think about running away. I'll catch you up just for fun."

Su Qiao's movement stopped, and she believed it. With Fu Yanxiu's long legs, she couldn't run away at all.

Forget it, resistance is useless. If she gives up resistance, Fu Yanxiu won't do anything to her.

Fu Yanxiu drove with a dark face. Su Qiao took a look and saw that this road was going to Fu Yanxiu's flat-floor apartment.

She had lived there for a while before, but hadn't been there for a long time.

Not sure what he was going to do, Su Qiao could only tell him patiently, "Why are you taking me to the apartment? I can't go back too late. My mother must know that I met Zhang Wen today and will ask me when I get back."

When he mentioned Zhang Wen, Fu Yanxiu's face turned darker, his voice was calm, and he held the steering wheel with both hands, his knuckles turned white, "Are you attracted to him?"

After saying that, he glanced at Su Qiao, as if to warn him.

Su Qiao was frightened, fearing that Fu Yanxiu would go crazy. His attitude was as if if Su Qiao dared to say that he liked him, he would dare to destroy Zhang Wen.

Just because he didn't want to implicate innocent people, Su Qiao quickly explained, "It's impossible for him and me. I've already rejected him. I don't plan to go on a blind date. I'm just dealing with my mother."

After hearing her explanation, Fu Yanxiu's face improved a little. He took a deep breath and took advantage of the red light to raise his hand to touch Su Qiao's face.

Su Qiao turned away and looked outside the car.

The two fell into silence again.

The scenery outside the window receded rapidly, and the neon lights lit up, forming strips of light that made it difficult to see clearly, just like Su Qiao's mood at the moment.

"Fu Yanxiu, you always say you want me to give you a chance, but have you ever respected me?"

"Go and tell my mother about us without saying a word."

"You said you could marry me at any time, so you came and asked me to marry you. Then who am I?"

A woman who comes at your beck and call?

"Yes, you may really have feelings for me. I've been sleeping with you for three years. It's normal to have feelings for me."

Su Qiao was angry. What she said today was serious, and she knew it.

She always knew how to make Fu Yanxiu angry.

In the past, I loved him and wanted him to pay attention to me, but now I want to push him away and not want to get entangled with him anymore.

It makes no sense and is not interesting.

As soon as Su Qiao finished speaking, he clearly felt that the car was speeding up and Fu Yanxiu was angry.

Just live, you have to have this chance.

After that, the two of them had nothing to say. The atmosphere was so solid that it made people feel suffocated.

The car drove to the parking space of the apartment. Fu Yanxiu opened the door, got out, and closed the door with a loud voice, obviously suffocating.

Su Qiao didn't hesitate, unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car, and met Fu Yanxiu's gaze.

The man seemed to have lost some of his anger now, but his expression was still ugly, and his voice was quite gentle. "I just want to show you something. I won't delay you for too long. I will send you home after reading it."

Fu Yanxiu glanced at his watch and said, "Half an hour at most." After a pause, he asked, "Is that okay?"
