The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise

Chapter 383: Ye Qi Is Going Back To Country M

Mu Chenxi just wanted to get back at Fu Zhi. As for whether or not their movie director could produce a good script, it was none of her business.

That said, she still understood the gravity of the situation. Therefore, she said, “Dad, don’t mind Fu Zhi for now. Just focus on Pure Feather. I heard that Lu Jingqing is in Myanmar right now for a stone-gambling event. Why don’t we invite the Lus to our house when he returns? Then, we can put pressure on them. I’m sure he will give up on Fu Zhi!”

Besides, it would be fine even if the Lu Family refused to cut ties with Fu Zhi. After all, they still had Ye Shiyun.

Ye Shiyun was the most famous celebrity right now. If he and his fans knew that his first film adaptation had been ruined by an unknown little girl, there was no way they would let her off the hook so easily.

Mu Chanqing narrowed his eyes.

‘Stone gambling in Myanmar, huh? Lu Jingqing doesn’t have much knowledge in this industry, yet he still hopes that he’ll get a good-quality jade from Myanmar? He’s really such a fool! All I have to do is wait until he loses all his money and his company. Then, I’ll just need to pressure him a little, and he will certainly abandon Fu Zhi!’

On the other side of the city, after Fu Zhi got home, she was shocked to find out that Ye Jiu was still in her house.

The tall young man was sitting on the couch. He was holding a cup of orange juice while watching a soap drama with Xu Wei. There was a smile on his face, and it seemed to Fu Zhi that he was having a good time.

Ye Jiu seemed to not notice her when she walked into the living room. He looked at Xu Wei and asked, “Is this a cute, butterflies-in-your-stomach type of romantic drama? I don’t really like it. I prefer the type with the bossy president that tortures the heroine by putting her in jail, making the heroine have a miscarriage in jail. Then, the bossy president will ask his secretary if the heroine knows she was wrong. The secretary will reply with something along the lines of ‘Nope, madam has married your father and she’s your step-mother now. She has given birth to your stepbrother, and she’s coming after you to get revenge!’.”

Fu Zhi was speechless.

‘Anyone with a sane brain would not direct a maladroit drama like this one.’

Xu Wei sighed. “Too bad the television station is prohibited from broadcasting a drama like this. Actually, I prefer this kind of drama as well.”

“Why don’t we ask Zhizhi, Yumo, and Yushen to play it for you? Yushen will be the phony little b*tch, and Yumo will be the hard-pressed heroine, while Zhizhi will be the brainless but bossy president.”

Fu Zhi looked expressionlessly at Ye Jiu.

Meanwhile, Lu Yushen had just come downstairs. He approached Fu Zhi and joined her to look expressionlessly at Ye Jiu.

Ever since Ye Jiu had come to their house, he had dominated all the couches in it. Not only that, but he’d also taken away the model house he had made for Fu Zhi with pink rhinestones.

Everything in Ye Jiu’s room was pink in color, including his pillows and the cup he used to drink water.

Lu Yushen treated his sister like a princess, but things had been different after Ye Jiu’s arrival. He was not a prince, yet he behaved as badly as a prince and he would cry whenever things did not go his way.

Lu Yushen set his jaw tight and asked Fu Zhi, “Now that your biological brother has come back to find you, do you still like me?”

Fu Zhi nodded and answered without any hesitation, “What are you talking about? Of course I still like you.”

Her answer finally put Lu Yushen’s restless mind at ease. He looked at her and said, “Then... Let me make another pink-colored model house for you.”

After saying that, he went closer and whispered into her ear, “I’ll secretly bring it to you when it’s done.”

Ye Jiu scoffed inwardly.

‘Scrooge. I wouldn’t want it even if you gave it to me.’

He pulled out his phone and then froze when he saw Ye Qi’s message.

Before they went to have dinner, he approached Fu Zhi and said, “Ye Qi is going back to Country M. Do you want to go and see him?”

*

The night in Yu City was particularly cold, as it was now winter. After Fu Zhi finished her dinner, she put on a jacket and flagged a cab to the nearest coffee shop.

When she entered the coffee shop, her body slowly warmed up thanks to the space heater. A waitress with flushed cheeks went up to her and said, “Erm, he went out to buy something for you. He asked me to tell you to wait for him in private room No. 207.”

Fu Zhi nodded. After she went into the private room, she took off her jacket and put it on a hanger.

After a short while, Ye Qi returned. The waitress could not help taking a photo of him. She wanted to know what was going on in the private room, but she knew that was not the right thing to do.

She thought for a moment and decided to post the photo on her Weibo with the caption “Blessed Love”.

After doing that, she calmed herself down and got back to work.

When Ye Qi entered the room, the first thing he saw was Fu Zhi, who was sitting on the soft cushion.

Her face was red, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead due to the high temperature in the room.

He stood there and looked blankly at her.

She had used a red hairband to loosely tie her hair behind her shoulder.

Ye Qi suddenly remembered the time when they had still been in the laboratory.

Fu Zhao had clumsy hands. He had always made Fu Zhi wince in pain whenever he’d combed her hair, and she would hug Ye Qi’s leg and complain to him.

She had grown considerably taller now. She no longer was the little girl who would hug his leg and she would not complain about everything to him in her little girly voice.

She had a new family. Her new parents loved her a lot, and she finally had a normal life.

She did not have an antisocial personality according to the International Crimes Unit’s test, and this was more than enough.

Ye Qi told himself that he should be grateful for everything he had now.

The milk tea in his hand was getting a little colder.

Fu Zhi noticed him, so she turned her head around. Her eyes glowed, and she said happily, “You’re back?”

Ye Qi’s heart melted when he saw her smile. He offered her a smile as if the two of them had not seen each other for years. He took a seat opposite her and handed her the milk tea. “It’s a little cold. Do you still want it?”

Fu Zhi nodded. She put the straw in the cup and began sipping on the milk tea, which put a smile on Ye Qi’s face.

Fu Zhi then said, “Ye Jiu told me that you’re going back to Country M... You’ve seen Ye Jiu’s physical condition, and I’m sure your condition is no better than his. I still haven’t found a way to develop a drug to inhibit the failure of your organs. You...”

Fu Zhi wanted to ask him to stay. However, she realized that both she and China had been absent for most of his life.

Thus, she phrased her words in a different way. “What are you going to do in Country M? China is pretty good as well.”

Ye Qi looked at her without saying anything. Then, he lowered his head and asked softly, “If I stay in China, can I stay with you?”

Fu Zhi was stunned.

“I’m just kidding.”

The tips of Ye Qi’s fingers started turning white as he said, “Both this country and Ye Jiu are too noisy. I like to be alone.”

He knew that they posed too much of a threat to society as adults, so unless they could prove that they did not have an antisocial personality, they would not be allowed to stay in this country.
