Chapter 217: Chapter 166: Let’s Start Over, Part 3
The ambulance and police car quickly arrived together.
Xu Ze was taken to the hospital, and Fu Tingzhou had a wound on his forehead. The doctor told Fu Tingzhou to get on the ambulance as well, while Tang Xi had no injuries. As the police were asking Tang Xi for details, Fu Tingzhou had the medical staff take Xu Ze first, and quickly came over to Tang Xi’s side.
He stood in front of Tang Xi, cooperating with the police investigation.
The female police officer took notes, "You mean, you suspect that it was done on purpose."
Fu Tingzhou nodded indifferently, "Mhm."
"Do you have any suspects in mind? Business competition? Financial disputes?? Or..." the female police officer said, glancing at Tang Xi, "or is it a romantic dispute?"
"All of them." Fu Tingzhou uttered three words faintly, "Xu Yunjie."
Tang Xi looked up at him.
The female officer wrote down these words, "Okay, we will investigate this. We will contact you if there’s any update." The female officer looked at the wound on Fu Tingzhou’s forehead, "You have an injury on your head, you should go treat it first."
-
In the medical room.
Tang Xi was treating Fu Tingzhou’s wound with a cotton swab.
She was focusing on the wound on his forehead. One was quite deep and hidden under his dark hair. There were several other lighter scratches, made by broken glass from the car, which only required a bit of medicine and disinfection.
For Fu Tingzhou, such minor injuries were nothing.
Soon a new driver arrived, and Fu Tingzhou got into the car. Tang Xi sat next to him, with the man’s head resting on her shoulder.
He said he felt dizzy.
Tang Xi’s shoulder tensed for a moment.
Her fingers slowly trembled and curled up slightly.
Tang Xi didn’t look at him but turned her face to the window, watching the world outside fly by.
Fu Tingzhou returned to Jingshui Bay. The man began to kiss her and pressed her onto the bed. Tang Xi didn’t resist, simply closing her eyes, stiff all over, waiting for him to finish venting. She thought it was over and sat up to get off the bed and go to the bathroom to clean up, but the man caught her hand, his voice full of satiated huskiness, "Tang Xi, let’s start over."
Fu Tingzhou’s lips were somewhat cool, touching Tang Xi’s.
Tang Xi’s eyelashes quivered slightly.
Because of this chilly kiss, and also because of the man’s words.
Tang Xi closed her eyes, "Fu Tingzhou, all I want is money."
She didn’t want any emotions, no love, only money.
Fu Tingzhou gazed deeply at the woman’s face before him. Her skin was very white, especially after their intimate moments, it was even flushed with a faint pink. At this moment, her eyes were closed; he couldn’t see the emotions in her eyes, but Fu Tingzhou knew that this woman must hate him.
The man lifted his hand, grabbed her chin, "Tang Xi, I can give you money, everything you want. All I want is for us, to start over."
Tang Xi opened her eyes to look at him.
She looked into his eyes.
"Okay." She uttered a word calmly.
It was indifferent and light, a word that seemed to float in the air.
But it was exactly the word Fu Tingzhou wanted.
She wanted money, and he could satisfy her greedily.
After that, their life seemed to return to how it was before.
No conflicts, no Xu Yiran, no slap incident.
Fu Tingzhou came here every night to stay over.
Even, not just to stay over, but to treat this place as a home.
Aside from attending the weekly family dinner at the Fu Family’s, he would come to Qingfeng Garden after work at all other times.
Zhouzhou was also brought back here.
Zhouzhou got along well with Zhouzhou.
Every day, Tang Xi would receive gifts prepared by Fu Tingzhou. Sometimes it was an exquisite brooch, sometimes an expensive bracelet, sometimes a necklace.
Or even, a gold card.
Tang Xi would smile every time she received a gift, and would tiptoe to kiss Fu Tingzhou’s face to express her gratitude.
But in the corner where he couldn’t see, her eyes were cold.
During the day when Fu Tingzhou was working, Nie Xiaoyun would accompany Tang Xi at home.
She watched Tang Xi tending to the flowers on the balcony and reading as usual.
But Nie Xiaoyun knew that her smile was weary, not genuine.
As if she was a beautifully adorned object, but rotting inside.
"Tang Xi, Mr. Fu said we can go out whenever we want. Would you like to go for a walk? I’ll accompany you."
"No need." Tang Xi looked up from her book, raising her hand to touch her neck, "Sister Xiaoyun, did you give the money to Mom Tang that I asked you to?"
"I gave it to her yesterday."
Tang Xi had set aside some money for Tang Jingyun.
She wanted to ensure Tang Jingyun’s future well-being. Although she had undergone a kidney transplant, it wasn’t a permanent solution.
The person who drove a car towards Tang Xi and Fu Tingzhou was found.
According to Nie Xiaoyun, the person was tight-lipped, adamantly claiming it wasn’t intentional, that it was an accident.
If it was really an accident, then the matter would be settled like that.
However, Tang Xi was clear in her heart that this matter could not be separated from Xu Yunjie.
Xu Yunjie hated Fu Tingzhou. After Fu Tingzhou had Xu Yiran injured in that accident, Xu Yunjie certainly had thoughts of retaliation, hence the orchestrated car accident.
Xu Ze was hospitalized for a week before returning home to recuperate.
During this period, Fu Tingzhou’s driver was replaced by the Fu Family’s bodyguards, and the assistant was replaced with a woman in her early thirties, named Guan Yue.
"Miss Tang, I am Mr. Fu’s assistant Guan Yue, Assistant Xu is on sick leave, and starting from today, I will take over Assistant Xu’s duties. Tonight, Mr. Fu invites you to an auction event, and your dress has been prepared."
Tang Xi looked at the woman before her, with her medium-length hair below her ears.
Wearing a beige trench coat, she was quite tall, around 172 cm or so.
A very gentle person.
At first glance, she had the feeling of being as mild as the moon.
But Tang Xi knew that someone who could take the position of Fu Tingzhou’s assistant was definitely no ordinary person.
