Chapter 8

Although Su Wanqiao had not revealed in her thoughts why that doctor had done it, they could certainly guess that he bore a grudge against the Fu family and had deliberately harmed her.

Chen Muyu hurriedly had the servants quietly dispose of all the medicine and replace it with other, safe heart medication.

Now that she had verified that all of this was true, the look she gave Su Wanqiao became even more complicated.

If the matter of the medicine was true, then the Fu family's bankruptcy was very likely true as well.

Fu Siyao picked up the other document envelope on the table, and its contents left her utterly shocked.

Inside were indecent photographs of Gu Minghan from the Gu family embracing men in various gay bars.

This made it even more certain that he was gay.

Her heart pounded. Fortunately, she had heard her sister-in-law's thoughts. Otherwise, someone would surely have schemed against her until she lost everything.

Chen Muyu and Fu Siyao secretly swore that they would never let those who plotted against them get away with it. Anyone who dared target the Fu family had better be prepared for retaliation.

Both mother and daughter looked at Su Wanqiao much more gently than before. Chen Muyu, in particular, had shed her prejudice against Su Wanqiao and begun to take this eldest daughter-in-law seriously.

Although Su Wanqiao had indeed done many unlikable things, this unexpected ability to read her mind had allowed them to see that she was not a bad person, and that she was far kinder than those who knew only how to flatter and fawn.

Besides, they were all family. At critical moments, they needed to present a united front against outsiders. Thinking of her own future fate, Chen Muyu felt even more strongly that she had been utterly wrong to care about face and empty prestige before.

Although they did not know how Su Wanqiao knew so many things that had yet to happen, being able to hear her thoughts must have been Heaven's way of warning their Fu family in advance. With that in mind, it no longer seemed strange at all.

Since they already knew about these plots, Heaven clearly did not intend for the Fu family to perish. Naturally, they needed to make good use of this mind-reading ability, learn more, and resolve the crises before they arose.

Although all of this medication had now been disposed of, she had already taken it for so many years that plenty of toxins must have accumulated. Still, with the medical care available to the Fu family, she could still be saved.

But if they had discovered it a year or two later, even an immortal would have been hard-pressed to save her.

Chen Muyu's gaze softened with the affection an elder showed a junior. She decided to treat this daughter-in-law well from now on, suddenly removing the imperial-green jadeite bangle from her own wrist and slipping it onto Su Wanqiao's. She was just about to speak.

Unfortunately, Fu Yunqi, the Fu family's second young master, happened to return from outside and witness this scene. The female lead, Jiang Ruoning, was behind him. Seeing his mother about to give their family heirloom to his unpresentable eldest sister-in-law, his expression abruptly changed.

He hurriedly spoke up to stop her. "Mom, no! You can't give it to her! This jadeite bangle was passed down by our Fu family's ancestors. How can you give it to an outsider?"

Su Wanqiao was surprised as well. She had not expected Chen Muyu to give her something so important. But when she saw Fu Yunqi and the female lead, she looked them over curiously. Chen Muyu fell silent when she saw the dialogue box above her daughter-in-law's head.

[So this is

the entertainment industry's

award-winning actor, Second Young Master Fu, Fu Yunqi. He really is handsome enough to be an award-winning actor. But he's always mixed up with the female lead. What a killjoy. In the story, he's just like the third Fu son, another loyal simp for the female lead, Jiang Ruoning, with a terminal case of love brain. His simping is even more brainless than the third son's. He gives the female lead money and resources and helps her support her man. In the end, he even willingly offers up a kidney to her. With one kidney gone and no money for dialysis, he gets abandoned by the female lead and dies miserably on the streets. Honestly, this award-winning simp is a heavyweight in the story. All it takes for him to fall from the entertainment industry's favored son of heaven into hell is losing one kidney. Still, that spirit of sacrificing a kidney for someone else really deserves a special report and an interview.]

"..."

!!!

The moment the dialogue box appeared.

Chen Muyu's and Fu Siyao's expressions immediately turned extremely ugly, and they looked at Fu Yunqi with exasperation at his failure to live up to expectations.

Fu Yunqi stared at the words above Su Wanqiao's head in even greater disbelief.

For no apparent reason, he felt an ache in his lower back.

Chapter 8

Coming back to his senses, Fu Yunqi stared in horror at the words that had suddenly appeared out of thin air above Su Wanqiao.

He thought he had seen wrong and instinctively rubbed his eyes, but this only made him more certain that he had not.

Words had indeed appeared above Su Wanqiao's head, and their contents were simply too horrifying.

After so many years in the entertainment industry, what grand scene had Fu Yunqi not witnessed? Yet this situation truly shook his understanding of the world. His first reaction was disbelief. He did not believe these things would happen to him.

His second reaction was to look at Jiang Ruoning beside him, once again finding it impossible to believe that he would donate a kidney to her.

Although he did have a favorable impression of Jiang Ruoning and sympathized with her experiences in the Jiang family-her father had remarried, and after the marriage, her stepmother and her father had always treated her badly-it was only a little sympathy. There was no way he would go so far as to sacrifice himself and donate a kidney to her, so he did not believe this was true.

Besides, as far as he knew, Jiang Ruoning was perfectly healthy right now and had no illnesses at all. Why would a healthy person need someone else to donate a kidney to her?

None of these things could possibly happen.

There was also Su Wanqiao's claim that he would give Jiang Ruoning money and resources.

Fu Yunqi had indeed used his connections to help Jiang Ruoning land a role, but it had only been a small favor. Why did Su Wanqiao make him sound like some sucker who even supported her man for her? It was utterly unreasonable.

But did Fu Yunqi really not know that Jiang Ruoning already had a boyfriend? Otherwise, he would certainly have kept his distance from her and stopped associating with her.

At that thought, he could not help glancing sideways at Jiang Ruoning. Could she really be the way Su Wanqiao had described?

Jiang Ruoning had not noticed anything unusual, nor had she paid particular attention to the contents of the dialogue box above Su Wanqiao's head.

Only then did Fu Yunqi realize that she could not see any of it. In other words, he alone could see it.
