128 CEO, Young Madam Transferred Eight Million and One Hundred Dollars. The 100 Dollars Is Your Tip (1/2)
The incident was resolved just like that. The policemen in uniform left in their police cars, leaving the scene of chaos behind. Han Xiaowan ground her teeth and twisted her hands together in anger. Tang Mo'er had got away again! How was she always so lucky?!
”Ah?” someone called out. ”Look at this, there's a pregnancy testing kit in the plastic bag.”
The scene turned chaotic once again. ”Oh god, don't tell me Beauty Tang is pregnant. Did you hear before, she said if she was unable to seduce President Gu, she would kill his son. Don't tell me she's pregnant with… the son of the Young Master?”
Lin Shiyu glanced at the pregnancy testing kit. She reeled back in disgust and made an obvious retching sound. At that moment, all the attention suddenly transferred to Lin Shiyu. ”Mrs Fu, are you pregnant? Is this pregnancy testing kit yours?”
Lin Shiyu did not say anything. Ignoring the crowd, she walked to the front and picked up the pregnancy testing kit calmly, before she left the place in an elegant manner.
”Don't tell me Mrs Fu is really pregnant? Hasn't it only been a few days since she returned? Young Master Fu has not flown over to Singapore during all these years. Don't tell me… Young Master Fu has been cuckolded?”
Hearing all the gossip, Huo Beichen whipped out his phone to call Fu Qinglun.
”Hello, Brother Qinglun. Where are you now?”
Fu Qinglun was having a meeting with the higher executives in Los Angeles.The chief financial officer was making a quarterly report. His clean fingers pressed his phone against his ears while he skimmed the report in his other hand.
”Hmm?” he murmured, half listening to the voice on the other end.
”Brother Qinglun, let me tell you something. Are you sitting down? Stay calm. Mrs Fu is pregnant, you're gonna be a father!”
Fu Qinglun suddenly stopped flipping through the document and his hand gripped the phone tightly. His voice was cold as he demanded, ”What did you say?”
Hearing the man's burst of outrage, the chief financial officer was so shocked that he stopped his report. Those at the meeting table glanced at the man discreetly, only to see his entire countenance shift into one that was both cold and dangerous. He was almost exploding in rage.
The executives did not even dare to let out a breath, in fear they would trigger their big boss.
”Brother Qinglun, you did not hear wrong. I predict that in less than half an hour, the news of you being a cuckold will have spread throughout the streets of Karghalik. Looks like your head will grow grass from all the greenery[1.In Chinese, the phrase ”wearing a green hat” refers to a man who has been cuckolded].”
The moment his voice fell, Fu Qinglun ended the call. His face was expressionless.
The entire meeting room was so quiet that the air was stifling, almost suffocating. No one dared to move, or even dared to speak. Even the slightest sound of a needle dropping on the ground would have been heard in the tense atmosphere. The cold aura of Fu Qinglun permeated the room.
After a long period of silence, the financial director mustered up his courage to ask, ”C-CEO, do you want me to continue…”
”Get lost!” Fu Qinglun hollered, slamming his fist on the table.
The higher-ups immediately got up from their seats and fled from the meeting room. With that, the quarterly meeting of the executives finished up.
”Bei Chuan, help me check the domestic news.” said Fu Qinglun in a deep voice towards his secretary, Bei Chuan.
”Yes, CEO.”
Bei Chuan took out his tablet and scanned through the recent news. His facial expression changed and he hesitated before he looked towards his boss. ”CEO, the internet is saying that Young Madam… is pregnant, they say you…”
Fu Qinglun looked at the tablet. There was a photoshopped photo of him, an evil netizen had changed his hair colour to a vivid green.
The heir of the Fu family had received the most elite education since young. His life and education had been planned to an exact science, Fu Qinglun garnered the envy and respect of many. Yet, he had now encountered the biggest cause of shame in his life.
Stretching out a hand, Fu Qinglun took the notebook and slammed it on the wall. His tall body got up. With a furious kick, his leg attacked the chair nearby and it fell uselessly to the side. As he stormed to the window, one hand loosened his tie, it felt suddenly tight and restrictive. His chest heaved up and down, images of that pretty and delicate face flashed past his mind. She was pregnant?
Ever since their wedding night three years ago, he had not touched her. How on earth did she get pregnant? It looked like she had slept with another man in those three years in Singapore.
