Chapter 58.3: Trust him conditionally (3)

Ji Qingying tugged on his clothes before looking straight at him, “Why aren’t you asking me anything?”

Fu Yanzhi sighed, “I want to, but I’m afraid you might not want to talk about it yet.”

Ji Qingying shook her head that was still in his arms, “I just don’t know what to say.”

Fu Yanzhi brought her fully into his arms as he gently started to comfort her by stroking her back.

Fu Yanzhi’s manly scent was just too effective on her as she felt herself calming down. And in a while, Ji Qingying could no longer suppress her emotions and started to cry and air out her grievances.

Both of her hands held him tightly as she told him what had happened while she continued to cry, randomly stopping when a sob came about, “I clearly didn’t do anything! So why are they cursing me like that?! They even said I looked disgusting… They also said that I bribed the judges and even slept with them… What right do they have to say those things about me… They even told me to die… and that I deserved to have been abandoned by my parents…”

That last sentence definitely caused critical damage to Ji Qingying.

If these netizens had cursed her about something else, she would have definitely been able to bear it, but to Ji Qingying, being abandoned was her life’s curse, to the point that even the mention of it caused her to go into a spiral.

She sometimes wonders if she was really evil in her previous life to try to explain how her life has been until now.

But what evil could she have done that warranted how much suffering she had to go through in this one?

She also tortured herself on whether or not it was her fault to get disliked like this.

Her father passed away and her mother left her. Even her best friend ended up betraying her.

Obviously, she was blameless in all of this.

But listening to her sporadic sobbing made Fu Yanzhi’s heart ache.

He just closed his eyes and drew her in deeper, continuing his efforts in trying to console her.

After a long time, when her crying had gradually subsided, Fu Yanzhi reached out and wiped the tears from her eyes, before gently saying, “No.”

He continued, “They didn’t abandon you. They just went to pursue their own life.”

He continued to gently comfort her by saying, “You still have us. We will always be with you.”

Ji Qingying’s tears fell without a sound.

Fu Yanzhi continued until his own voice became hoarse, but he continued all the same. After she had cried enough, he again brought up the cup of water for her to drink.

After venting all her pent up emotions, Ji Qingying finally became normal again.

She raised her head to look at Fu Yanzhi. She stared at him deeply before asking, “Am I ugly?”

“No.”

Fu Yanzhi lowered his head and gave her a little peck, “You’re still very beautiful.”

Ji Qingying didn’t know what to say.

Then Fu Yanzhi glanced at the computer screen that was still on and seriously asked, “So how would you like to deal with this matter? Do you want this news to be buried or something else?” ℞ÀℕȫꞖĘS

“I want to prove my innocence.”

Then Ji Qingying continued without hesitation, “I already have the evidence in hand. I just haven’t had the time to sort it out yet.”

She looked at Fu Yanzhi and said, “If you’re busy, you can go first, but I’ll…”

But before she could finish, he was already pinching her face.

He stared at her with his deep set eyes and asked her in a deep voice, “Mind saying that again?”

Ji Qingying: “……”

“I’m just afraid that this might affect your work.”

Fu Yanzhi looked her straight in the eye and said, “You know, you being like this isn’t allowing me to go back to hospital peacefully, right?”

“And exchanging shifts is very common, so Xu Chengli shouldn’t mind. I can just make it up to him later.”

“…Oh.”

Ji Qingying: “I’m sorry.”

Fu Yanzhi flicked her on the forehead as a warning.

He then glanced at the computer again and said, “Send me a copy of those files.”

Ji Qingying looked at him.

Fu Yanzhi clarified, “You can do what you want, just don’t refuse my help.”

Ji Qingying agreed, “Okay.”

She then took a seat in front of the computer and started to copy the files she was sending to Fu Yanzhi.

When she was doing so, Fu Yanzhi called Ye Qing.

“How is Qingying’s condition?”

Fu Yanzhi looked back at the person sitting in front of the computer, remembering how red her eyes were as she cried, so he wasn’t quite sure what to say, “Not too good.”

He sighed before lowering his voice, “Mom, pass me the personal information about those two.”

Ye Qing: “Okay.”

Having thought about something, she then added, “If it isn’t enough, go contact Cheng Zhan and the others. They’ll have a lot more resources available. Right now, the most urgent thing to do is to sway the public’s opinion first. I can handle the fashion design industry side of things, but it’s better to ask an expert like Cheng Zhan to handle the public’s opinion on the Internet.

“I understand. Then I’ll call Cheng Zhan.”

Ye Qing reminded, “Send me those files too. I’ll take a look.”

She took a brief pause before also saying, “By the way, my assistant just told me that Zhou Zhilan has come to meet with me, saying that she wants to talk about Qingying.”#pleasereadthischapteratfoxaholic.xcom

Fu Yanzhi thought for a bit before saying, “She’s her mother.”

Ye Qing was first shocked, but then felt so relieved that she sighed, “I understand.”

After hanging up, Fu Yanzhi phoned Cheng Zhan to arrange for a team of lawyers.

“What else can I help with?”

Fu Yanzhi seriously considered something before asking, “If we have the issues buried, would it be good for her?”

“…If we have it removed, it’ll only make her look like she really does have a strong backing. But then again, if we leave it alone, the cursing would only continue. I’m pretty sure that the person who orchestrated all this profited greatly.

Both choices weren’t good.

Cheng Zhan carefully thought about it for a while before saying, “You can ask her to consult with our lawyers first before deciding. If you do decide to have it taken down, please tell me first.”

“Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it.”
