Chapter 129 The Frail White Moonlight in a Substitute Abusive Novel 26
Yunqing went because in the original story, Shen Yunqing went happily.
Those people were mutual friends of hers and Fu Shiheng, and she valued them quite a bit.
Moreover, after she had been gone for four years, it was inevitable that she and Fu Shiheng would become somewhat estranged upon her return.
She couldn't wait to use everything familiar around her to bridge the distance between her and Fu Shiheng that had grown over time, and to awaken the beautiful memories of her in his mind.
Although the welcome banquet is now half a month later than in the original storyline, her relationship with Fu Shiheng is already close enough.
But the importance attached to it still needs to be shown.
*
When Yun Qing and Fu Shiheng arrived, everyone else was already there.
This group of people often play quite casually, but this time they didn't mess around. The eight or nine of them just played Truth or Dare properly in the private room.
Upon seeing Yun Qing and Fu Shiheng enter, the group immediately began to cheer.
"Our main character has arrived! Come and sit down!"
"Yun Qing is finally back! Brother Fu has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel!"
As he spoke, he winked and gave the others an ambiguous look, gesturing for them to see Fu Shiheng's hand around Yun Qing's waist.
Fu Shiheng said irritably, "Where are you looking?"
The man looked away and said with a grin, "Brother Fu, we're just happy for you!"
Fu Shiheng ignored him, but simply sat down with Yun Qing, leaned close to her ear and said, "If you don't find it fun, just tell me, and we'll go home."
Yun Qing nodded. "Okay."
Qin Yan sat down, handed a glass of wine to Fu Shiheng, and then smiled at Yun Qing, saying, "Yun Qing, what would you like to drink? Tell your brother, and he'll order for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Shiheng kicked him.
Qin Yan was baffled. "Fu Shiheng! What's wrong with you?"
Fu Shiheng glanced at her lazily, "What 'brother'? From now on, you should call her sister-in-law!"
Qin Yan retorted, "Why should I call you 'sister-in-law'? Why can't you call me 'brother-in-law'?"
Fu Shiheng snorted coldly, "Anyway, you can't be Brother Yun Qing."
Qin Yan said irritably, "Fu Shiheng, don't go too far! Everyone here is Yun Qing's older brother and sister! Yun Qing, right?"
Yun Qing blushed and stammered.
Sitting next to her was her ex-brother's current boyfriend, and it's clear that "brother" isn't a very respectable term for her now.
She hadn't forgotten how Fu Shiheng called himself her brother while actually acting like a scoundrel towards her.
She simply couldn't bring herself to say that everyone else was her brother!
Looking at Yun Qing, the others finally realized something.
The short-haired woman next to Qin Yan pulled him away and said irritably, "Stay away. I can have a sister, but I don't need a brother. Yun Qing has enough with one brother, Shi Heng."
Qin Yan: ...Why should I?!
Fu Shiheng is such a jerk!
Not satisfied with winning the heart of the beauty, he actually wants to deprive him of his right to have a sister?
Qin Yan was furious, so after Yun Qing was pulled away to chat with her sisters, he dragged the others to get Fu Shiheng drunk.
They kept wishing them a long and happy marriage, a lifelong union, and a lifetime of happiness together, making it seem like they were attending a wedding.
Although Fu Shiheng knew they had ill intentions, he was happy to give them face and play along with their antics because their words were indeed very pleasant.
But he kept checking on Yun Qing, which annoyed Qin Yan. "Alright, stop looking. It's not like it'll get lost, is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Shiheng got up and walked over to Yun Qing, looking down at the drink in front of her.
Yun Qing quickly said, "I didn't drink it."
This was enthusiastically recommended by my sisters. It's said to be a unique drink at this club, and it's incredibly delicious, but it has ice in it.
Fu Shiheng patted her head. "You can drink it without ice."
Fu Shiheng simply sat down next to her, not intending to leave, which made his sisters unhappy.
We girls are having a heart-to-heart talk, what are you, you stinky man, doing getting in the way?
As a result, Fu Shiheng, who had angered everyone, was forced to drink alcohol by everyone.
Yun Qing held the freshly delivered drink without ice and sat down next to Fu Shiheng. Seeing that he had drunk quite a bit, she tugged at his sleeve with some concern, "Brother Shiheng, drink less."
Once Yun Qing spoke up, Fu Shiheng stopped arguing with them, no matter how eloquent they were.
The group then regretfully went off to play on their own, leaving them some space.
Yun Qing realized that although Fu Shiheng's relationship with this group of people seemed good on the surface, they were not truly open with each other.
He was very casual; he'd play along when he was happy, but wouldn't bother with it when he wasn't.
Thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising. These people have known each other since childhood, and there is indeed some friendship between them, but there must also be some interests involved, so it's not pure.
Just like Shen Yunqing and them, who grew up together, they were quite close to Shen Yunqing. However, they kept the fact that Fu Shiheng had found a substitute a secret from him from beginning to end, without revealing it to Shen Yunqing at all.
It seems incredible, but it's actually quite reasonable.
After all, anyone with a brain would know which to choose between Shen Yunqing and Fu Shiheng.
The group played around until mealtime, then gathered at the table and started talking about business while eating, and even struck two deals.
Fu Shiheng had been taking care of Yun Qing and seemed somewhat silent. When someone offered him a toast and sincerely wished him and Yun Qing well, he would still give them face and drink a glass.
So everyone offered him a cup, and he drank several more cups.
Yun Qing noticed that something was wrong with Fu Shiheng, and she couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Brother Shiheng, are you drunk?"
Fu Shiheng appeared perfectly fine on the surface, but his reaction was noticeably slow. He stared at Yun Qing for a long while before saying, "Not drunk."
Yun Qing: ...It's confirmed, this is drunk.
Fortunately, apart from being a little slow to react, he didn't seem to have any other problems. He shouldn't be too drunk, and he was particularly obedient.
"You can't drink anymore, understand? Not even one more glass."
Fu Shiheng nodded obediently and even smiled at her, "Okay."
After that, Fu Shiheng did not touch alcohol again, but after a while, he suddenly said mysteriously, "Qingqing, I'll go get you something delicious."
He got up and left, his steps still fairly steady.
Yun Qing sensed that he was already a little dazed and wanted to follow him, but was pulled back by a slightly drunk woman. "Yun Qing, come on, let's have a toast."
Yun Qing had only gone out a little later, but Fu Shiheng had already disappeared. She had no choice but to take two bodyguards with her to look for him.
Fu Shiheng went through so many twists and turns that he completely lost his way.
He leaned against a corridor wall, completely bewildered. Where am I? Where's my Qingqing? Does Qingqing not want me anymore?
His eyes were slightly lowered; he was heartbroken, but his face remained expressionless.
After standing there for a while, he decided that he would go to find Qingqing. He would find her no matter where she was, and she would never abandon him after seducing him!
As a result, he felt dizzy and his steps faltered as soon as he moved.
It was at this time that Ruan Weiwei met him.
She was fired by the Fu family and failed her job interview with the Qin family. She hasn't found a job she likes yet, so she's working as a waitress here for now.
She watched Fu Shiheng walk towards her step by step. Although his steps were a little unsteady, he did not look disheveled. On the contrary, he looked more languid and sexy than usual.
Ruan Weiwei felt her heart pounding faster and faster, her gaze fixed on him, unable to look away.
Fu Shiheng was so cruel to her, she should give up and let go gracefully.
But what could she do? Her heart was not under her control. More than half a month had not made her forget him. On the contrary, it had accumulated into a strong longing that made her want to throw herself into the fire like a moth.
