Chapter 265: Chapter 197: A Strange Name_4

"I... am almost 28."

"I heard that you’re currently single, raising a child on your own; you must be quite busy. When my daughter was that age, she was a handful."

"I’ve hired a nanny to help take care of my daughter, and she’s well-behaved. Lately, I’ve been planning to send her to kindergarten."

"Have you considered getting a boyfriend? After all, it’s better to have someone sharing the responsibilities and living life with you, better than being on your own."

Tang Xi never thought about finding another boyfriend. She was doing fine raising Tangtang by herself, but indeed, there always seemed to be suitors around her. Looking at Song Qin, she said, "I... I’m not really... not really interested in that. Right now, I just want to focus on my work, and then... and take good care of my daughter. Thank you for your concern, Sister Song Qin."

"Alright, I have a few men around your age in mind; I was planning to introduce you to them. There are many young, single doctors in our hospital, and besides doctors, I have a nephew who’s a teacher, he’s a catch too."

Tang Xi understood, this was an attempt to set her up on a blind date.

Tang Xi, faced with Song Qin’s enthusiasm, found herself unable to refuse in the moment.

She could only respond half-heartedly, "Maybe when I have time,"

"Okay, then how about this Saturday? I remember you’re off work on Saturday. I’ll arrange a meeting with my nephew then, and you guys can get acquainted. Even if it doesn’t work out, it’s fine. You can get to know each other and be friends first."

Tang Xi sent Song Qin off and then raised a hand to massage her forehead.

Returning home, she found her daughter already asleep, with Su Wenhe alongside her, also slumbering.

Tang Xi prepared a bath for herself. She had a little drink and started feeling drowsy while soaking in the tub.

She slowly closed her eyes.

Her body gradually began to slip underwater.

It seemed Tang Xi had a dream, in which she found herself submerged in water.

Someone was calling out to her.

But they weren’t calling her name.

Someone grabbed her hand, desperately pulling her upwards.

Tang Xi saw a figure with a familiar outline—Fu Tingzhou! How could it be Fu Tingzhou!

In an instant, she awoke with a start.

Climbing out of the bathtub, she gasped for air, the suffocating sensation finally easing. It was only then that she realized she had almost drowned in the bathtub after dozing off from the alcohol.

Meanwhile—

In the inpatient department.

Inside a deluxe ward.

Fu Tingzhou opened his eyes and sat up, his back drenched in cold sweat.

It was the sudden movement of sitting up, which was too expansive, that he tugged at his wound, causing a dull pain. Thanks to this pain, he came to his senses.

He had dreamed of that woman again.

He had seen her in numerous dreams.

Yet he had no idea who she was.

Ning Daisu pushed open the door and came in, "Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu, are you okay? Did you have another nightmare? Does your head hurt?"

As she spoke, her eyes filled with concern, she walked over to fix the corner of his blanket, but Fu Tingzhou blocked her with his arm.

The man’s voice was hoarse, "Leave, and send Shen Duan here. From now on, you’ll handle the affairs with the Gao Family, and I’ll have Shen Duan take care of things here."

Ning Daisu bit her red lip, "Did I not do well enough? The elder said to take care of you... Mr. Fu, I am your personal assistant; I should be by your side to care for your daily needs, whereas Shen Duan is your work assistant..."

Fu Tingzhou’s expression turned cold, and his eyes held a faint chill, "Ning Daisu, I brought you to North Island only because Grandfather arranged for you to be by my side. Otherwise, I would not have allowed you here."

Ning Daisu’s voice was somewhat choked up as she slowly backed away, "I understand."

Four years ago, she began following Fu Tingzhou’s side, adhering to Fu Yuanshan’s instructions. Her family was decent, middle-class in North City, with her father being one of Fu Yuanshan’s trusted officers. Consequently, her family’s reputation benefitted from the shine of the Fu Family, enjoying its protection.

After recovering from a serious illness, Fu Tingzhou fully took over the Fu Family’s business. Fu Yuanshan wanted someone obedient and sensible by Fu Tingzhou’s side, so Ning Daisu took the initiative to come to the Fu Family.

In the entire North City, many young ladies from noble families fancied Fu Tingzhou, but Ning Daisu was always the inconspicuous and transparent one.

This was her closest chance to get near Fu Tingzhou.

However, for these past four years, Fu Tingzhou had treated her merely as an ordinary assistant.

This made Ning Daisu feel frustrated.

Fortunately, Fu Yuanshan had always been very pleased with her.

Within fifteen minutes, a young man in black sportswear arrived at the hospital room.

The man was young and lean, with sharp features and a prominent facial structure. With a buzz cut and a scar over his left eyebrow extending to his forehead, he seemed a bit fierce but also strikingly handsome, with a distinctive personal aura.

The man’s name was Shen Duan, and he was Fu Tingzhou’s assistant.

Four years ago, taking advantage of Fu Tingzhou’s amnesia, Fu Yuanshan completely replaced everyone around him.

Xu Ze, who used to be with the Fu company, was no longer there, and all personal bodyguards, special assistants, and secretaries were replaced.

All because these people knew the name Tang Xi.

Everyone who knew Tang Xi had been replaced by Fu Yuanshan.

And Shen Duan, was personally groomed by Fu Tingzhou over these four years.

Four years ago, just after being released from prison, Shen Duan, with his capable hands and agile mind, was assigned by Fu Tingzhou to be his driver and gradually became his special assistant.

"President Fu, aren’t you concerned that arranging things with Ning Daisu like this might be improper? After all, she was sent by the elder, and she’s also your life assistant... She hasn’t left yet and is crying outside the hospital room."

"I know Grandfather’s intentions."

Perhaps it was the head injury from the car accident, or maybe it was the recurrence of an old injury from a recent nightmare, but at this moment, Fu Tingzhou felt an exceptional headache.

"Never mind her, have you found out the cause of the car accident?"

"I’ve found out part of it." Saying so, Shen Duan handed over his mobile phone, "Take a look at these photos."

"Thinking such crooked thoughts, does Shangguan Bai not want to live anymore?"

Shen Duan replied, "I can’t rule out the possibility that someone is framing him, but based on the information I have at the moment, all clues point to him."

"Shen Duan, I asked you to investigate that woman who was with me four years ago. How is the search going?" This was what Fu Tingzhou always wanted to know; he wanted to find out who the person who often appeared in his dreams was.

She had become his personal demon, his obsession.

"President Fu, in your past life... You were once in a marriage, but it was a hidden marriage. You never met the other party face to face, there was no mutual affection or emotional involvement. It was arranged by your mother. You refused and went to England for three years without meeting her, and upon your return, you divorced. After that, only Miss Su stayed by your side. After parting ways with Miss Su, there were no women who closely interacted with you. Your private life was very clean, with only one woman by the name of Tang Qianqian, whom you had contact with for a while."

This was all the information Shen Duan could find.

It was also the information modified and released by Fu Yuanshan.

Fu Tingzhou frowned, muttering the name, "Tang Qianqian?"

This name...

He looked at Shen Duan, "What characters, how is it written?"
