Chapter 614: Making Trouble (2)
Fu Wan shivered when she heard the words of the man. Yes, this was the child of her dearest brother, Wenxuan. A child she had received through sheer schemes and bribing someone. Including driving someone to jump off a roof and die. How could she let this child starve?
Seeing that the woman was moved, Xiao Chenye continued, "Please stop making trouble. At least take a few bites and try to keep the child well-fed. That way, you will still be able to keep your position as the eldest madam of the Bai family or else things might become troublesome for you and your family, Miss Fu. It is bad enough that your father had messed up; do you want to follow in his path, too?"
Fu Wan's face turned dark. She didn't like it when people brought up the good things that she had done to garner the attention of her Brother Wenxuan, and how she had gotten pregnant with his child. But the man was right; it was due to this child that she was being treated so well by Brother Wenxuan; if not, she would definitely be left on the street to be killed by the zombies, and in place of her would be—
Her face turned even darker. She turned and asked Xiao Chenye, "Where is Brother Wenxuan? You said that he would come to pick me and the child up, but I am already so close to giving birth to a child, and he never came to look for me. Is he even trying to come and take me and my child away? If this goes on, how will we survive!? That woman bullies me left and right," as she spoke, more tears started to fall out of her eyes.
Are you fucking made of water? How can you cry so much? This is simply beyond my understanding, thought Xiao Chenye.
However, he still sucked in a breath and honestly replied, "Master Wenxuan said that he will arrive here in a day or two. He has crossed Cloud City, and he will soon arrive here to take you and the child away."
"Then did you tell him how badly that woman bullied me and his child? She wouldn't even let me have a hot water bath; look at how swollen my feet are!" More tears trickled down her cheeks and then her jaw before landing on her fair neck.
If there were men who were strangers and did not know Fu Wan, they would certainly be enticed by this look of hers, but these bodyguards had long become accustomed to such a sight. What was more, they were even disgusted by the sight. After killing someone, Fu Wan wanted to pretend that she was a naive young lady; she truly had some nerve!
"The young master said that he had arrived, so you don't need to worry; we will discuss the rest of the matters once he is here," Xiao Chenye used all his patience to coax the woman, swearing that he would ask Bai Wenxuan for a raise for all the babysitting he had done for him. That man, he left this mess of problems in his hands and went AWOL. He'd better be prepared to pay him generously!
Xiao Chenye was simply annoyed with all the crying and the fussing. Crying, crying, crying – did the woman live her days by crying? Would she cry if she didn't cry?
"I want to talk with Brother Wenxuan! I feel anxious with him gone; let me talk to him. Tell him that I miss him and I cannot do it without him talking to me."
Fu Wan was not lying. Even if she didn't treat anyone well, she did treat Bai Wenxuan as if he were the sun and the moon of her life. Only she knew how hard it was for her to stay without him for so long; if not for the fact that she couldn't fly right over to where Bai Wenxuan was, she would have done it.
When Xiao Chenye heard her words, he became even more disdainful. Did she think that it was that easy for them to contact Bai Wenxuan? They didn't have any communication devices and had to brave their way to the safe base, where they relayed their messages to Fox, who then returned the messages to Bai Wenxuan. He did it all through a special military radio; it was not easy to get hold of, as the entire safe base was in a rather perilous situation.
It was just that Fu Wan didn't care about anything else, other than getting dressed up, dolling herself up and then taking care of her hair and nails and complaining about the lack of a spa. Even with the world coming to an end, she didn't think that there were any changes. She still thought that the world was working in the same manner, like Bai Wenxuan could waltz into the airport and then take a plane to the other side of the world.
When Bai Wenxuan left the country, the world was yet to come to an end, and only those who braved through the troubles knew how hard it was for him to return to the city. However, this had nothing to do with Fu Wan; she just cried and made a fuss every day, saying that if she did not see Bai Wenxuan, then she would die.
It was terribly hard to control her when she threw a tantrum like that. Sometimes she would get so violent that these men were worried about the child in her belly.
According to Bai Meiyue, what Fu Wan was feeling was nothing but anxiety, and she needed someone to care for her as she was having a hard time. Even though she had all the comforts in the world, a woman's world was small enough to only let her husband in, especially a woman like Fu Wan, who treated husbands like their god.
There were women who wouldn't allow such a thing but Fu Wan was definitely such a woman, which meant—she needed counseling!
