Chapter 8 The Beauty Trap Fails

The next day, Fu Jingshu, dressed in a suit, was about to leave.

"Daddy! Good morning!"

Shen Jinxi, sitting at the dining table, blinked his big eyes, his short legs dangling between the chairs, and greeted him crisply.

Regardless of why Chenchen could suddenly speak, it was ultimately a good outcome.

Thinking this, Fu Jingshu's cool, dark eyes couldn't help but show a hint of warmth.

He nodded slightly, acknowledging the greeting, and then turned to leave.

Upon entering the group's lobby, Lin Mo hurried after him, "Master Fu, Miss Scary emailed this morning to accept the offer. She's in the lounge now, but..."

"But what?"

Fu Jingshu frowned.

Lin Mo looked hesitant, "This Miss Scary... is Shen Qingqing."

Upon hearing this, Fu Jingshu paused.

That woman again?

He turned, a hint of interest rising in his cool eyes, and unconsciously curled his lips.

"Let's go to the reception room."

Lin Mo was shocked.

Oh no, this was the first time Master Fu had smiled because of a woman. Could it be... he was falling for her?

Entering the reception room, Fu Jingshu saw the woman on the sofa. She had changed into professional attire, exuding an elegant and intellectual aura with a more mature charm.

This woman, he thought, always made him feel differently every time he saw her...

Fu Jingshu's gaze deepened, and his voice, rich and deep, said, "Miss Shen, what a coincidence, we meet again."

Shen Qingqing smiled, her smile possessing a captivating charm, "It is indeed a coincidence."

Originally, she had no desire to have anything to do with this pervert again. The salary they offered was less than what her company, Claire Group, earned in an hour; she didn't care about it at all.

But now that Xixi was in his hands, and she also wanted to know why Shen Yaoyao had usurped her child and married into the Fu family, after careful consideration, she had agreed to the job offer from Fu Corporation.

"Miss Shen, you didn't seem to plan to join Fu Corporation before. What made you change your mind?"

Fu Jingshu raised an eyebrow.

"Of course, it's because Master Fu is handsome and rich, and I was utterly captivated by your charismatic personality, so I wanted to be closer to you, even closer..."

As she spoke, Shen Qingqing stood up and walked step by step towards Fu Jingshu. She draped her fair arms over his shoulders, leaned in slightly, and whispered by his ear.

Lin Mo listened with a pounding heart, his eyes about to pop out.

Strange! Master Fu hated it the most when others had inappropriate thoughts about him, didn't he?

And why could she touch Master Fu?

Fu Jingshu subtly turned his body. The delicate and exquisite face was within inches of him, his breathing quickening involuntarily, his dark eyes deepening.

There was a fatal fragrance about this woman that he strangely didn't dislike.

It even reminded him of that night five years ago...

However, after a brief moment of distraction, Fu Jingshu regained his composure and said coolly, "I just asked for your reasons for joining."

Shen Qingqing's body stiffened awkwardly. Her beauty trick was ineffective on this stubborn man!

Clearing her throat, Shen Qingqing stood up straight, "Because I know you're allergic to women. Does that count as a reason?"

Instantly, Lin Mo's face changed, "How dare you! Are you threatening Master Fu?"

The Fu family was a powerful and wealthy enterprise, with so many vultures eyeing them.

If Master Fu's condition were discovered, what kind of persecution would he face?

This woman would do anything to get close to Master Fu!

Fu Jingshu's fists clenched. He had never been threatened in his life.

Shen Qingqing smiled slyly, "Don't be nervous. What I mean is, I know Master Fu is allergic to other women, but I am a special case. Therefore, I can better share your burdens and solve your problems. What do you think?"

Lin Mo glared at Shen Qingqing, teeth clenched, wishing he could kick this clueless woman out right now!

But she was, unfortunately, correct.

With the conversation reaching this point, Fu Jingshu couldn't continue to refuse. He could only place the work pass on the table, "Come to work tomorrow."

With that, Fu Jingshu left, with a stunned Lin Mo in tow.

Watching their retreating figures, Shen Qingqing finally relaxed her tightly clenched fists.

Chenchen, Mommy will definitely get justice for you!

Entering Ruisi Group was just the first step!

Standing up, Shen Qingqing also walked towards the elevator at the entrance.

The elevator slowly stopped on the first floor. As Shen Qingqing stepped out, she ran into an old acquaintance.

"Sister? What are you doing here?"

Shen Yaoyao looked surprised, and at the same time, a bad premonition surfaced in her heart.

Shen Qingqing smiled and dangled the work pass in her hand, "Going to work."

Shen Yaoyao exuded a strong scent of heavy makeup, likely to mask Xixi's medicinal odor.

The moment she saw the work pass, Shen Yaoyao stumbled, almost losing her balance.

Shen Qingqing actually got into Ruisi Group? How could this be?

If Fu Jingshu discovered that the woman from five years ago wasn't her but Shen Qingqing, her entire plan would be ruined!

"Sister, the work at Ruisi Group is very stressful. If you want a job, why not come back to Shen Corporation? I'll speak to Dad for you. He'll definitely be happy to have you back!"

Shen Yaoyao forced a smile.

But Shen Qingqing didn't answer immediately. Instead, she walked up to her in high heels and lowered her voice, speaking word by word.

"You should know better than I do why I've come to Ruisi Group. Have you ever heard the saying, 'a life for a life, a debt for a debt'? The debt from five years ago, I'm here to collect it now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yaoyao's face instantly turned ashen, and she began to tremble uncontrollably.

Shen Qingqing smiled gently, "A reminder: you only have two days left. If I don't receive the thirty million in two days, don't blame me for collecting some interest first."

After saying that, Shen Qingqing, disregarding Shen Yaoyao's terrified expression, turned and walked away with a confident stride.

It took a long time for Shen Yaoyao to recover from her shock.

Flustered, she took out her phone and dialed a familiar number—

"Mom! Come back to the country quickly! Something has happened!"

After returning to Xiangshe Villa from Ruisi Group, Shen Qingqing immediately went to the sterile ward.

The little one had woken up, but his body was wrapped in bandages, curled up in a corner like a little rice dumpling.

"Chenchen?" Shen Qingqing said softly.

Fu Zhicheng timidly looked up, his dark, grape-like eyes shimmering with a wet light, like a startled fawn.

Dr. Chu had said that Chenchen hadn't uttered a word since he woke up, which indicated that the child had serious psychological problems.

Shen Qingqing suppressed the pang of sadness in her heart and carefully stroked Chenchen's little head, "Chenchen, don't be afraid, you're safe now..."

Fu Zhicheng hesitantly looked up, gazing at Shen Qingqing's beautiful face.

This sister was so pretty, and she smelled nice, just like the mommy he imagined...

Taking out the medicine prepared by Dr. Chu, Shen Qingqing coaxed gently, "Chenchen, be a good boy, take your medicine, and Auntie will give you a reward."

Children naturally disliked taking medicine. Fu Zhicheng unconsciously pursed his lips.
