Chapter 424: 0422 Is it necessary to use backdoor connections? Chapter 424: 0422 Is it necessary to use backdoor connections? And when netizens asked, “Why did Zhao Yiyi bring Shen Jun to the exchange meeting? Why was she so sure that she had been kidnapped?” and what her explanation was for the words that Zhao Yiyi and Song Yifei blurted out, she remained tight-lipped, outright ignoring them.
After all, everyone just needed a scapegoat, the truth didn’t really matter.
With Song Yifei as the mastermind, all she needed to do was to make a statement!
The declarations made by the two were full of holes; in the recording of Shen Jun, it was clearly stated that Zhao Yiyi had taken him into the exchange meeting, and in the video, Su Xinyan herself was convinced that Su Ran had conspired with Shen Jun to kidnap her.
Yet no one answered these critical questions.
It wasn’t even patchwork, just barely giving an ambiguous explanation.
Most people online didn’t believe it, but naturally, there were also those who did.
Those who believed were Su Xinyan’s die-hard fans!
The Song family went bankrupt, and Song Yifei’s fate was certainly no better, a fine family brought down by the daughter’s folly.
Su Ran looked at the messages online and let out a cold laugh!
At this point, could Su Xinyan still bring out Song Yifei to take the fall? Should she say that her scheming was deep, or her methods were clever?
Or had she promised something to the Song family?
Su Ran closed her eyes slightly, never mind, both Enrich and Chongguang had suffered significant blows this time.
She had all the time she needed!
Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and at that moment, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
Picking it up, she found a message from the man.
[When do you get off work?]
Seeing this, Su Ran curved her lips slightly, the gloom on her face swept away.
[Six o’clock. Weren’t you dealing with the matters in Country A? Have they left?]
Fu Qiyuan: [Yeah, they’ve left!]
Su Ran looked at Fu Qiyuan’s response, her eyebrows lifting slightly.
The next second, the phone rang again.
Fu Qiyuan: [Tonight… just the two of us?]
Reading the message, Su Ran blinked her eyes, blinked again, and suddenly let out a soft laugh.
Holding her phone, she began to type.
Su Ran: [When is it not just the two of us?]
After all, there was no third person to disturb them.
Fu Qiyuan: [Mmm, it’s a rare opportunity, after all, we won’t have many days in the future.]
Pocketing his phone, the smile at the bottom of Fu Qiyuan’s eyes also faded away.
Su Ran rubbed her temples, let out a light laugh, and got up to leave her office.
Tonight, Fu Qiyuan truly understood the meaning of “just the two of us”.
When they got home, apart from a table full of food, there were no signs of anyone around; Su Ran couldn’t even detect another person’s scent.
At the dining table, they finished their dinner without incident.
Perhaps as an instinct for self-preservation, she rarely suggested to take a stroll in the garden.
Fu Qiyuan looked at her silently for a few moments, and just when Su Ran was about to give up, he finally spoke.
Su Ran let out a sigh of relief. Before leaving, Fu Qiyuan casually picked up his coat from the sofa and draped it over Su Ran’s shoulders.
Su Ran turned her head to look at him, smiled, and felt a touch of warmth in her heart.
Gathering the coat closer around her shoulders, they walked towards the garden.
The streetlights around them glittered with dazzling light, as bright as daylight.
The colorful flowers had a layer of light cast upon them, creating a hazy effect, blossoming with extraordinary splendor in the night.
They had walked a good half of the garden without the man saying a word. Su Ran looked at him and asked:
“What are you thinking about?”
Fu Qiyuan’s footsteps gradually came to a stop, as he gazed directly at her.
“I was thinking about when our names might appear together on a household register.”
Su Ran was startled and her cheeks flushed slightly.
“Can’t you think of anything else?”
A hint of amusement lit up Fu Qiyuan’s eyes. “I can only think of you.”
Su Ran coughed lightly and glanced away, smoothly changing the subject without any hint of emotion.
“Will Fu’s decide on which merchants to settle in based on the results of this competition?”
Fu Qiyuan gave her a glance, fully aware that she was deliberately avoiding the topic. He didn’t press her further, instead stepping forward to adjust the coat on her shoulders, using the movement to bring her entire body into his embrace.
“Mhm, aren’t you planning to establish a new brand with this opportunity? I’ll give it to you.”
Su Ran looked up at him in surprise.
Fu Qiyuan smiled and continued to walk with her in his arms.
Su Ran let out a light sigh, her voice tinged with a hint of helplessness.
“, you’re leaving me no chance to maintain any sense of mystery.”
Fu Qiyuan chuckled softly. “Mhm, it’s all my fault.”
Su Ran nodded. “Your fault for being too clever.”
Fu Qiyuan was briefly taken aback, then turned to look at her, and after a moment, he laughed softly. His laughter was rich and sexy, sending a tingle through her.
“Thank you for the compliment, Madam.”
Su Ran’s face flushed a deeper red. “Don’t talk nonsense, who’s your wife?”
Fu Qiyuan curved his lips, “Sooner or later, you will be.”
Blinking her eyes, she then looked at him and said:
“However, by choosing merchants in this way, are you sure you’re not giving me a backdoor deal?”
“Do you have such little confidence in yourself?”
“Of course not.” Su Ran paused, then added, “So, are you really giving me a backdoor deal?”
Fu Qiyuan sighed helplessly. “Madam Fu, leveraging one’s own resources isn’t the same as pulling strings. With your abilities, do you really need me to do that for you?”
He would like that, actually, but his girlfriend was too capable, not leaving him any opportunity to show off.
“Why did you make this decision all of a sudden? Fu’s malls must have already had designated merchants, right?”
The hand Fu Qiyuan had placed on her shoulder tightened slightly, and he bent down to kiss her face, then whispered near her ear:
“Because, I’m truly looking forward to the day I can work with you.”
A warm current surged through Su Ran’s heart as her eyes sparkled.
After strolling around the garden for a while longer, they passed by the front door again.
“Shall we continue walking?” Fu Qiyuan asked.
Su Ran glanced at the time and then shook her head.
“No more walking, I have to work tomorrow. Let’s go back!”
Fu Qiyuan’s lips curled with a smile, and after his words fell, he bent down and picked her up horizontally.
Su Ran instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, looking at him with a blank expression.
“What are you doing?”
“It’s very late. What comes next… is time for just the two of us.”
She choked a bit, and the smile on her face instantly stiffened!
Wasn’t what they just had already ‘time for just the two of us’?
Fu Qiyuan carried her at a brisk pace back to the villa, then headed straight for the bedroom on the second floor.
The bedroom door was kicked open, and Su Ran was placed directly onto the bed.
Su Ran sank into the soft bedding, and before her mind could fully catch up, her lips were seized by his, her teeth gently pried apart…
