Chapter 84 - Lan Xin’s Conspiracy (6)

“The whole world knows that President Fu doesn’t like Chen Meimei!”

“President Fu only married Chen Meimei because of pressure from his Mother.”

“He was just acting along with the circumstances!”

These words echoed over and over in Lan Jinyao’s mind. Even though she kept telling herself that that bunch of girls were just talking nonsense, she still felt anger boiling in her heart, and she arrived home with a dejected expression.

After Fu Bainian had sold Chen Meimei’s house, he’d moved everything from Chen Meimei’s room to his place, and that included the recliner placed on her balcony.

Whenever she felt down, she would pour herself a glass of red wine and sit on the recliner on the balcony, slowly savouring her glass of wine sip by sip.

It was currently around 9 PM, and since Fu Bainian had gone to attend a business dinner and hadn’t returned yet, Lan Jinyao was sitting alone on the recliner, looking at the scenery in front of her from the balcony. It seemed that all the lights in this neighbourhood were lit around this time.

She stared at her old apartment opposite the balcony and saw that a new person had seemingly moved in. Before this, she’d met the couple that was living there after she’d moved out. This time, however, the new owner of the apartment appeared to be a very young man, but she couldn’t see the figure very clearly due to the distance and the reflection of the lights.

While Lan Jinyao was inadvertently staring at the complex across from her, that young man seemed to also be looking in her direction. In this dimly lit night, it was quite difficult to see things clearly, so when she felt that gaze on her, she subconsciously felt a bit uncomfortable.

She then quickly returned inside, but the man was still standing there, staring at her balcony. When she saw this, she couldn’t help but frown.

Meanwhile, her phone suddenly rang with a call from Fu Bainian.

“Hello?!”

“You’re downstairs? All right, give me a minute, I’ll be right down!”

When Lan Jinyao had gotten off work she’d been in a bad mood, so she’d gone straight home. It was only now that she remembered that she hadn’t eaten dinner, but luckily she wasn’t too hungry.

Fu Bainian was already waiting for her downstairs, so Lan Jinyao quickly changed her clothes and went out wearing an oversized hat. At the gate of the community, a black car was parked by the side of the road. Lan Jinyao had spotted the car at a glance when she’d arrived at the gate.

“You’re so considerate. How did you know that I hadn’t had dinner yet?” Lan Jinyao gave Fu Bainian a bear hug as soon as she got into the car.

Fu Bainian’s lips curled up into a smile, and he gently said, “Of course I know! Because, someone told me that tonight you might be too angry to eat, so he called me and asked me to take you to dinner.”

“Li Qi called you?”

“Yep!”

Okay! It seemed like what had happened in the practice room was already known to everyone.

Fu Bainian pondered for a moment before he said, “If you don’t feel comfortable over there, then you don’t have to participate in the newcomer training because you’re not a newcomer anyway! Besides, it’s just a waste of time for you to hang out with that bunch of girls all day.”

Lan Jinyao glanced at him suspiciously and asked, “Hey! That’s not what you said last time.”

“The past is done, and the present is now; I can’t just let my dear wife suffer like this! Besides, you never talk to me about anything work-related!”

Hearing this made Lan Jinyao feel slightly wronged, so she gloomily said, “I just wanted to fix my issues myself.”
