Chapter 243: Chapter 242: He Threw Her Ring into the Swimming Pool
Fu Yunshen flicked the ash from his fingertips, remaining silent.
In the dim light, his handsome and graceful profile appeared enigmatic.
Seeing that Fu Yunshen did not outright reject him, Mr. Mu sensed that he might be interested in the woman on the stage.
Wen Yuci finished her pipa performance and stepped down from the stage.
Just as she was about to say something, her delicate shoulders were firmly embraced by a man’s arm.
Wen Yuci furrowed her brows.
Uncomfortable with the touch of strangers, she tried to shake off Mr. Mu’s hand, but he led her towards the sofa instead.
“Beauty, stop playing coy. Serving our Brother Fu is your good fortune!”
Brother Fu?
Hearing this name, she instinctively stiffened.
She looked towards the corner, where the light was dimmer, and couldn’t make out who was sitting there.
But she distinctly felt the intensity of the man’s gaze on her.
It was cold, piercing, and impossible to ignore.
A gaze that felt both familiar and strange to her.
Could it be Fu Yunshen?
At the thought, Wen Yuci’s steps subconsciously halted.
But Mr. Mu gave her no chance to resist, forcefully pushing her forward as she resisted.
Wen Yuci attempted to steady herself, but it was too late.
She stumbled and fell to the ground.
Her nose collided with the man’s hard shin bone, causing her so much pain that she nearly cried.
Both her knee and nose hurt.
Suddenly, a warm flow emerged from her nose.
Bright red blood dripped onto the man’s glossy black leather shoes.
Wen Yuci took out a handkerchief, pressed it against her nose and looked up slightly at the man in front of her.
The man had just finished a cigarette and was about to light another.
A cigarette was clenched between his thin lips, with a silver lighter in his other hand.
The moment the blue flame sparked to life, his handsome and scholarly face came into view before Wen Yuci’s eyes.
He looked down at her with indifference in his long phoenix eyes as if she were a complete stranger.
Wen Yuci’s heart tightened.
Not wanting to lose her dignity before him, she got up to leave.
But the next second, his cold, chilling voice rose, “What, you dirty my shoes and think you can just walk away?”
Wen Yuci stopped in her tracks.
“Come here and clean it up!”
His tone and expression treated her as if she were the most contemptible ant.
Wen Yuci took a deep breath, crouched down again, and used a tissue to wipe the blood off his shoe.
Seeing her humble posture, Fu Yunshen’s phoenix eyes revealed a flood of complex emotions.
She cleans just because he tells her to?
Why didn’t she listen when he asked her to go to the hotel last night?
After Wen Yuci cleaned his shoes for Fu Yunshen, she prepared to leave.
With him there, she had come to understand that the magnate from the venture capital circle was him.
She would seek help from anyone but him!
Just as Wen Yuci stepped out of the private room, a woman dressed in a sultry manner blocked her path.
She was Yan Yan, the star of the entertainment city, and from the first time Master Fu came here, she had fallen for him.
Yet he had never given her a second glance.
The woman in the cheongsam, who had been playing the pipa on stage, had captivated Master Fu’s attention without his gaze ever leaving her.
Yan Yan felt a strong sense of crisis.
She intentionally bumped into Wen Yuci, yet falsely accused Wen Yuci of bumping into her, “Are you blind when you walk? Apologize to me!”
“Miss, you’re so young and already blind, I advise you to go to the hospital and get that checked out as soon as possible!”
As soon as Wen Yuci’s words fell, Yan Yan splashed the red wine she was holding onto Wen Yuci’s face.

“You dare to be so arrogant in front of me after dirtying Master Fu’s shoes? I think you’re tired of living!”
Wiping the wine off her face, Wen Yuci hooked her lips into a cold sneer, “I’m not interested in the so-called Master Fu you keep mentioning. You don’t need to compete with me out of jealousy!” With that, she took a glass of wine from a passing waiter and splashed it onto Yan Yan’s face, “I don’t want to hit your face and risk knocking your silicone nose out of place!”
Yan Yan’s face turned green with anger.
She waved over the security guards, “Take this woman to the manager; he should like this face of hers.”
Once the manager is tired of playing with her, she would become a cash cow for the entertainment club.
By then, with a status like hers, let’s see how much pride she has left.
Wen Yuci struggled violently. Although she was no match for several strong bodyguards, she managed to kick them several times.
“This dame sure is fierce!”
Yan Yan sneered coldly, “Are you big men telling me you can’t handle one frail woman?”
The restroom was not far ahead, and the guards directly pushed Wen Yuci inside, filled the sink with water, and pressed her face down into it.
Wen Yuci never expected the club security to act like a gang of thugs, pressing her face into the sink without a chance to utter a word, feeling like she was going to suffocate.
The moment she was pressed down for the second time, suddenly a figure charged over.
The guards were violently knocked to the ground by him.
Yan Yan, standing at the door, was startled by the sudden appearance of Fu Yunshen.
His normally elegant and handsome face was now full of menace, like an Asura emerging from the ground, emanating a dark and chilling presence that sent shivers down one’s spine.
With just a few punches, he knocked down several tall and burly guards.
Yan Yan’s pupils shrank in fright.
“Fu, Master Fu, she was the one who provoked me first…”
Fu Yunshen glanced at his bodyguard, who immediately got the hint, stepped forward, grabbed Yan Yan by her long hair, and dragged her into the men’s restroom.
Fu Yunshen took off his suit jacket and wrapped it around Wen Yuci’s slender frame.
He lifted her horizontally and left the entertainment club.
The bodyguard filled the urinal with water in the men’s restroom and pressed Yan Yan’s face into it.
The water in the urinal naturally smelled foul, and as Yan Yan’s head was forced into it, she choked on several mouthfuls, feeling both suffocated and nauseous.
She trembled all over, her face pale!
As Fu Yunshen carried Wen Yuci away, she could still hear Yan Yan’s screams.
Fu Yunshen placed Wen Yuci inside his car.
He drove the car to his villa.
When the car stopped, he pulled Wen Yuci out.
Only then did Wen Yuci come back to her senses and instinctively began to struggle.
In the struggle, several buttons on her cheongsam came undone, revealing a ring hanging from a necklace around her delicate white neck.
Seeing the ring on her neck, Fu Yunshen’s expression darkened.
He yanked the necklace off and examined the ring closely.
It wasn’t the one they had used to affirm their love years ago.
Was it a gift from Fu Ziyuan?
As Wen Yuci saw the ring fall into Fu Yunshen’s hand, her face changed dramatically, and she reached out to snatch it from him.
“Fu Yunshen, give me back the ring!”
Her concern for the ring completely infuriated him.
With a gloomy face, he threw the ring into the swimming pool.
But the next second, he heard a splash as she, not caring about the bone-chilling cold of the winter night, jumped after the falling ring into the pool.
Watching this scene, a fiery rage ignited in Fu Yunshen’s chest.
Was that ring so important to her?
Fu Yunshen’s gaze darkened, and his thin lips pressed tightly into a cold, straight line.
