Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 1010: I’m a Normal Man

“Tang Xi! I have no enmity with your Jiahe Corporation, so why did you harm me this way?” How Chu Fangzheng wished he could eat Tang Xi alive.

“No enmity?” Tang Xi’s lips curled up coldly. “Remember Jiang Ming’an? The Jiang Ming’an who took in your daughter in Iraq! The Lu Xiangsi who took care of your daughter! These two people… I guess you no longer have an impression of them!”

Chu Fangzheng’s mind blanked out, and then it suddenly struck him…

Xie Jingqiu, Tang Xi, Jiang Ming’an, Young Master Feng… they had a deep friendship!

“So you’re destroying the Chu family because of Jiang Ming’an and Lu Xiangsi’s deaths?”

Tang Xi walked to the door and picked up his suit with one hand. He slipped his cigarettes and lighter into his suit and put it on. “President Chu, your tea is pretty good, enjoy it yourself!”

After Tang Xi left, Chu Fangzheng slumped down on the sofa…

The phone vibrated, and he answered it. Pieces of bad news came in one after the other!

After ten-odd calls, Chu Fangzheng was already drenched in sweat. When his phone rang again, he no longer dared to answer it, so he directly turned it off, then tossed it out as if he was throwing a piping hot yam.

Cen Mo, who was overseas, saw the news back at home. The instant he heard the Chu Group’s matter had something to do with the Kaide Corporation and the Jiahe Corporation, he guessed that Fu Huai’an and Xie Jingqiu were behind it.

Cen Mo, who hadn’t paid any attention to Chu Xun for some time now, turned and asked Saihand, “How is that Chu Xun woman?”

After a while, Cen Mo could no longer be bothered to expend his time and energy on Chu Xun. He had handed the matter to his subordinates. There were plenty of people who wanted to work for Cen Mo!

Moreover, all of those people’s methods were filthy and dark!

Saihand had been paying attention to this matter on behalf of Cen Mo. It was just that Cen Mo hadn’t asked about it recently, so Saihand didn’t mention it either. Now that Cen Mo suddenly recalled seeing the news from back home, Saihand bent over and smiled at Cen Mo. “According to Sir’s instructions, they didn’t take her life right away. After living in trepidation for some time, she probably managed to contact her family. The Chu family members helped her get a new identity and also gave her some money. We’re letting her relax for a couple of days and plan to strike again later!”

“Right… no hurry. Don’t kill her right away, and ensure she doesn’t fall into so much despair that she chooses to commit suicide! Give her some breathing space, and don’t let her feel too hopeless. I want to see her tolerance limit sink lower and lower. I want to see her trampled into the mud!” Cen Mo said with a smile.

“Sir, don’t worry!”

“Cen Mo! Cen Mo… quick, come and taste the soup I made!”

Hearing Song Yao’s voice, Cen Mo’s gaze turned gentle. He got up and said to Saihand, “I fear she might be ill-informed. Find a way to let her know of the Chu family’s situation. Let her understand that her strongest backing is no longer there for her.”

“Got it! Getting on it right away!”

…

Since Cen Mo was willing to give Song Yao a chance, Song Yao was willing to put in her best effort…

Although Song Yao’s cooking was awful, she still couldn’t resist wanting to let Cen Mo have a taste of her culinary skills.

In the past, it was Song Yao who ate food personally prepared by Cen Mo. This time around, Song Yao also wanted to get Cen Mo’s genuine approval…

Hence, Song Yao woke up early in the morning and re-did it several times, toiling over it from morning to noon. When the soup was ready, she tasted it herself and felt it didn’t taste too bad, so she asked Cen Mo to try it.

Cen Mo watched as Song Yao stood beside the dining room table and scooped soup for him. Seeing him enter, she looked up and flashed him a vibrant smile. “Sit! Try the chicken soup I made. I’ve tried it, and I guarantee that it’s not awful!”

This was the first time Song Yao cooked for Cen Mo. It was rare for Song Yao to be in such a good mood, so Cen Mo just let Song Yao be. But he refused to let Song Yao touch a knife. Whatever ingredients she needed, a chef would specially prepare them for her. She only had to toss the stuff into the pot, then add in seasoning according to her mood!

All the chefs in the kitchen watched over Song Yao today, on high alert, fearing something might happen to her whilst she was in their territory.

Watching as Song Yao destroyed pile after pile of perfectly good ingredients, the head chef’s heart ached, but there was nothing he could do about it. He was only able to watch on as Song Yao messed about.

Cen Mo sat down at the head of the table. He took the soup bowl from Song Yao’s hand and gently held her hand as she sat down. “Let me do something like scooping the soup myself!”

“Try it!” Song Yao had a look of anticipation.

Cen Mo smiled and lowered his head. Before he could send the soup to his mouth, Song Yao edged closer to him and said softly, “You ought to smile more, you know? When you smile, you truly… have overwhelming beauty!”

By the time Song Yao finished speaking, she felt a little shy. She bit her lower lip, her cheeks looking flushed.

When Saihand heard this, he couldn’t resist chuckling softly to himself. Even the servants in the dining room couldn’t help doing the same.

The term “overwhelming beauty” was apt when used on Cen Mo. Cen Mo was indeed very pretty. His facial features were well-chiseled, looking perfectly exquisite. It was just that Cen Mo’s solemn aura was too overwhelming, for he always wore a dark expression, making one’s hair stand on end.

Hearing the chuckles, Cen Mo frowned and looked up. He turned and glanced at Saihand. Saihand saw that and didn’t dare utter a sound anymore, simply pursing his lips.

“I heard you went to Mrs. Fu’s filming location when you asked to go on leave that day!” Cen Mo suddenly recalled this, hence spoke of it.

Saihand nodded.

Cen Mo turned and looked at Saihand in astonishment. “The woman you fell for is Mrs. Fu? Saihand… that’s a married woman! Moreover, she has a good relationship with her husband, you…”

Saihand immediately waved his hands awkwardly. “Sir, what are you thinking? I went to look for Little Lu! I didn’t go there for Mrs. Fu, please stop speaking carelessly!”

Song Yao couldn’t resist smiling when she looked up to see the blushing Saihand.

“It’d be good if it isn’t Mrs. Fu you’re fond of!” Cen Mo nodded, relieved. When he went back to his soup and was about to drink it, something unbelievable suddenly struck him. He turned back to look at Saihand in shock.

The perplexed Saihand stared back at Cen Mo, confused.

“So the one you like is Little Lu, the one you like is a man!” Cen Mo looked up.

“What!” Saihand was even more perplexed now.

Cen Mo pursed his lips. He went back to his soup but then felt like he ought to reassure Saihand, so he set down his spoon and said, “Never mind, the world is highly tolerant of homosexuality now. No one’s going to ostracize you if you come out of the closet! But if Little Lu doesn’t fancy you, don’t force it on him! After all, he is Mr. Fu’s special assistant, so it wouldn’t be good if things end up too ugly!”

“Sir, what are you talking about?” Saihand’s ears turned red. “I’m a normal man. I fancy women! That day, I went to look for Assistant Little Lu because… because I asked Assistant Little Lu how to enhance my charisma. Assistant Little Lu told me to meet up with some friends, so I went to look for him!”
