Chapter 412: Chapter 287: Don’t Call Him President Fu
Chen Jiuyue licked her lips, "Assistant Lin, since you have finished everything, my 500,000 should be transferred to my card now."
Lin Ke removed a miniature camera from her coat button, which had just recorded the entire process. He handed it to Fang Chenbai, a top hacker who had been cooperating with Shangguan Group.
With a glance from Lin Ke, Fang Chenbai immediately took the camera, connected it to a computer, and the cafe they were in was Lin Ke’s private property. It was already locked down from the public.
Fang Chenbai said, "The video is ready. In three days, Gao Chengxiong will host a product launch press conference. I will directly hack into their system and play this video live at the venue."
Lin Ke pulled out a card, "There’s one million in here, take the money and leave North Island."
Lin Jiuyue happily took it, continually thanking them and promising to fully disappear from North Island.

Shen Duan took Tang Xi to a 4S shop.
"Try this one, it’s last year’s new model, but the car type is quite good. It is mostly purchased by women."
Tang Xi didn’t know much about cars, but the car’s on-the-road price was about three million. Tang Xi glanced at Shen Duan, "You just take whatever Fu Tingzhou says as truth."
She got inside the car and tried it out.
Although she had a driver’s license, she hadn’t been driving for a long time, and it was an unfamiliar model, so she was slow to get familiar with it, but once she started driving it was fairly smooth.
Shen Duan directly used his card to buy the car which he had reserved three days ago by calling ahead, and asked the dealer to keep a new car ready. He then let Tang Xi drive it right out of there.
Tang Xi bit her lip, "Whatever Fu Tingzhou says, you just listen?"
Casually, he had mentioned that Shen Duan should bring her to buy a car for practice.
And he actually did...
"Both of us are assistants to President Fu, and obviously we have to listen to President Fu’s words," Shen Duan turned on the GPS, "Miss Tang, this car is now yours, registered under your name. You can drive it out in the evenings to practice."
"I... don’t need such an expensive car for practice," Tang Xi’s fingers clenched tightly around the steering wheel.
Shen Duan’s voice was mild, "I’m only following President Fu’s orders. If you don’t like it, you can tell President Fu directly."

It was around seven in the evening when they returned to the hotel.
Upon using the room card to enter, she saw Tangtang’s markers scattered on the living room floor, her drawing book on the coffee table, and beside it her backpack. Clearly, the girl had turned the living room into her study and homework space. On the coffee tabel, there was also a fruit platter with various fruits and a glass of milk.
But neither Fu Tingzhou nor Tangtang were in the living room.
Tang Xi changed her shoes and walked in.
She looked around and suddenly heard sounds coming from inside the room.
Tang Xi went inside.
She saw the bathroom door was open, and she slowly walked forward.
"I didn’t mean to start a fight with Chen Xiaodong, it was him, he started cursing first, he cursed at me, and that’s when I fought back, please don’t tell my mom."
The girl was looking down, a man was rinsing her hair with a shower.
Soft black hair, full of creamy white foam, carrying a faint strawberry fragrance.
"Are you so afraid of your mom?"
"I’m not afraid," the girl covered her eyes with a towel to prevent shampoo from getting in, "It’s just, she would worry about me. Chen Xiaodong also cursed at my mom, calling her not a good woman, he even said... said I don’t have a dad."
Fu Tingzhou, holding the shower, paused, a dark look flashed in his eyes.
"Parent-teacher conference tomorrow, I’ll come over."
"Really?" Tangtang was delighted, knowing that Fu Tingzhou would be there meant everyone would know she has a dad, and she planned to harshly slap Chen Xiaodong back in the face!
But Tangtang hasn’t been happy for even a few seconds when she noticed a figure standing at the bathroom door. Her eyelids slightly drooped as she quietly said, "Mom, you’re back."
Fu Tingzhou, his back to the door, did not turn around. He continued rinsing the girl’s hair. After rinsing the hair, a fair and slender hand passed him a towel, which Fu Tingzhou took to dry Tangtang’s hair.
The bathroom, filled with mild steam and a faint child’s shampoo strawberry scent, felt very sweet.
The light mist blurred slightly.
The girl’s eyes spun around, and in a milky voice, she called out, "Mom."
Tang Xi bent down, her lips pursed as she helped to dry the girl’s hair, speaking to Fu Tingzhou, "Let me do this. You should rest, President Fu."
Fu Tingzhou didn’t leave, instead, he stood at the doorway watching the woman bending down to use a hairdryer on the girl. Tangtang blinked at Fu Tingzhou, and he bent his lips slightly.
A few seconds later, he turned and walked away.
"Mommy, I just talked to Dad... Did you hear our conversation?"
Tang Xi shook her head, "I didn’t hear it."
"You’re lying. You were listening at the door for a long time."
"Mommy was listening openly and upright."
"Mom, I didn’t mean to, it was Chen Xiaodong who started swearing first..." the girl said, feeling wronged.
Tang Xi bent down and gently touched Tangtang’s cheek, "Mom knows, it’s not your fault."
"Mom is the best." Tangtang threw herself into her arms. "Tangtang loves Mommy the most."
"Mom loves you too." Tang Xi smelled the sweet strawberry scent in her daughter’s hair. She had always known that because she was a single mother, some unruly children at school often made fun of Tangtang for not having a father, and every time Tangtang would end up fighting with those mischievous kids.
Tang Xi had changed schools for her daughter several times.
But it was not her daughter’s fault.
In less than a month, they would probably leave the North Island.
Tang Xi said to the girl, "How about we go to a different city with... with Dad?"
The girl’s eyes lit up, "Is it Mom’s old home? Can we see Grandma?"
"Yes, back to North City, we can see Grandma."
"Great!" Tangtang clapped her hands.
"Tangtang, do you want to go back?"
"Wherever Mom goes, I’ll go."
"Have you had dinner?"
"Yes, I ate with that Dad... that uncle."
Tang Xi watched her daughter quickly correct herself and smiled, "Did he ask you to call him Dad?"
Tangtang, "He... he said he and you were married before, and I am his biological daughter, but then you divorced, and you brought me here." The girl was still young and didn’t really understand what divorce meant, but she did understand that it meant the two people no longer lived together.
Tang Xi picked up the girl and laid her on the bed, changing her clothes, "Tangtang, do you like him?"
Inside the walk-in closet, the girl had lots of clothes.
All were recent fine children’s clothes, all bought by Fu Tingzhou.
There were pink tulle skirts and white lace dresses that Tangtang particularly liked.
There were also some cartoon character bags that Tangtang loved.
During these days that Tangtang had lived here, Fu Tingzhou had provided her with a very generous lifestyle.
Just one piece of clothing could be Tang Xi’s living expenses for a month.
"I... I don’t dislike him, he..." Tangtang cautiously glanced at Tang Xi’s expression, though young, she knew that her mom seemed not to like Dad.
Tang Xi didn’t want their relationship with Fu Tingzhou to affect the child. She was still young and there was no need to mix into adults’ grievances.
Tang Xi took a deep breath, "Let’s go out and draw."
As long as Fu Tingzhou was good to the daughter, Tang Xi could temporarily tolerate everything.
In the living room, Tang Xi painted with her daughter for a while, then Tangtang went to watch TV, and she went to sleep after nine o’clock.
Tang Xi walked out of the room and saw the man sitting at the desk by the floor-to-ceiling windows. She slowly walked over, "Mr. Fu, do you need anything else? If not... I’ll go rest."
"The day after tomorrow, Gao Chengxiong has a new product launch, you will go with me."
"Okay."
"In front of Tangtang, you don’t need to call me President Fu or Mr. Fu. I hope to give my daughter a complete and beautiful childhood."
Tang Xi was momentarily taken aback.
She looked at Fu Tingzhou’s face, confirming that these words indeed came from this man.
Tang Xi was somewhat surprised.
She softly murmured, asking aloud, "If not President Fu, what should I call you?"
The man’s phone gently tapped on the keyboard, and upon hearing her, he looked up, his gaze faintly sweeping over her cool brows and eyes, "As you wish."
