Chapter 561: No, Im Too Poor To Lend You Money

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The more Huo Ningxin was willing to spoil Fu Zhi with money, the more she was willing to scold Li Nanli.

Her voice was exceptionally sharp, and both Fu Zhi and Li Nani were stunned.

Huo Ningxin asked Fu Zhi, Do you know that hes a girlfriend?

Erm Yes? Fu Zhi replied.

Then, without waiting for Fu Zhi to say anything, Huo Ningxin went straight into the point and began her lecture, Youre a girl, so you should know how to love yourself. Why do you have to stick your nose into other peoples relations.h.i.+ps? Miss, I dont want you to be another persons replacement. Besides, my daughter-in-law is the prettiest woman in the world. She looks just like a fairy, and you Youre just above average, so what makes you think that you can compete with her for my son?!

Just name your price. How much is it enough for you to leave my son?

Its not about money

Im Fu Zhi

.

Five million, Huo Ningxin said.

Madam, youve got it wrong. I

Fifty million.

Alright, Ill stay away from your son, Fu Zhi said as she took her phone out, You wire the money to me through WeChat, or you can transfer the money into my bank savings account, or you can just open me a cheque. As long as youre happy, Im happy.

Li Nanli became speechless.

Just when Huo Ningxin was about to give Fu Zhi the money, an arm appeared in the video and took Fu Zhis phone away.

Huo Ningxin frowned and asked, What do you think youre doing, you ungrateful p.r.i.c.k?

Fu Zhi lifted her head and looked at him.

Li Nanli did not reply to Huo Ningxin. Instead, he grabbed Fu Zhis chin.

Zhizhi, my heart is not good, he said, Do you want to become a widow at such a young age?

Fu Zhi could feel the heat from his fingertip.

He switched on the light inside the car, and Fu Zhi squinted her eyes against the warm yellow light.

It was only now that Huo Ningxin saw Fu Zhis face clearly.

Zhizhi? Arent you supposed to be at school right now? How did you get to Myanmar? Not only that, but youre with Nanli? What is going on?

Im here for a stone gambling festival, Fu Zhi replied flatly.

Stone gambling? Huo Ningxing frowned.

Could it be that she doesnt have enough money, so she went to Myanmar to earn pocket money through stone gambling?

When the thought surfaced in Huo Ningxins head, she asked, Are you a little short of cash lately?

Nope.

Huo Ningxin felt Fu Zhi was really such a good girl when she heard her reply. Even though she was tight on cash, she still a.s.sured her that she was fine. Just when Huo Ningxin was about to tell her daughter-in-law that she could tell her anything including her problems since they were family, she heard Fu Zhi continue in calmly, Its not just lately.

Fu Zhi did not want people to misunderstand her economic conditions. Ive been always short of cash.

Huo Ningxin became speechless, and she felt even more sorry for her.

Ask Nanli to give you some money. He has so much money that he doesnt have know how to spend, Huo Ningxin said. After that, she turned to Li Nanli and asked, How are you feeling now.

She was talking about the a.s.sa.s.sination the other days. Although it had caused quite a big commotion, n.o.body dared to inform her until Li Nanli had recovered.

Im feeling pretty good now, Li Nanli replied as he played with Fu Zhis finger.

Is there anything you want to ask me?

I guess no more.

Well, Im hanging up, then. I have to entertain my girlfriend now.

Huo Ningxin became speechless.

Im your mother, you ungrateful son! How can you not want to talk to your mother? What is the thing that causes our mother and son relations.h.i.+p on the verge of breaking?

Huo Ningxin looked at Li Nanli expressionlessly and said, Cant you talk to me for a little longer? I havent seen myself laughing so much in a long time.

Fu Zhi and Li Nanli did not know what to say.

Then whos the one who has to do a gastroscopy for laughing too much at a comedy show?

Listen, mom. Im bonding with your daughter-in-law right now, so we dont have to bond anymore and I can marry her directly and have a baby after she graduates from her school.

Huo Ningxin fell into silence.

Well Youve got me there.

She snapped herself out of her thought and replied, Then, what are you still waiting for? I would be dead by the time you have a baby judging from your speed. Hurry up and do what youve to do!

After that, she hung up the call, and silence once again returned to the car.

Li Nanli broke into a gentle chuckle as he stuck his hand into his s.h.i.+rt pocket, his fingers rummaged for a cigarette.

He was forbidden from smoking when he was serving in the military and he only got addicted to smoking after he took over the Li Corporation.

He lit the cigarette up, and a faint smell of tobacco filled the car.

Fu Zhi glanced at him and he was stunned. He thought for a moment and stubbed out the cigarette.

Fu Zhi had a hunch that Li Nanli was not in a good mood right now. However, she did not have the time to ask him as she could see Zheng Qu behind them through the rear mirror.

She took a piece of milk candy out of her pocket. Then, she grabbed Li Nanlis hand and put the candy on his palm. This is for you.

The atmosphere inside Fu Zhi and Li Nanlis car was intimate, but it was a whole different world for Zheng Qu and his group.

Hurry! Hurry! Zheng Qu shouted. He was behind Zhuang Mo, and both of them had been staying on the line ever since the match started. D*mn it! Were so close!

Zhuang Mo said, He drives like the driver I met the other day.

Zhuang Mo was nearly pushed off the cliff by that driver that day. He did not say it out, but it did not mean that it did not leave him with psychological trauma.

For a professional racer like him, it was considered taboo to have fear of his opponent. After all, once the seed of fear began to sprout in his heart, he would not be able to make any breakthrough in his career anymore.

That was why Zhuang Mo was so h.e.l.lbent on looking for the driver. He wanted to have another match with her or learn from her to overcome the fear in his heart.

He was ambushed by the Phantom Lord that time! Theres no way he could be the driver! Just stay calm. Youll be alright!

In the meantime, Li Nanli was staring at the milk candy on his palm.

Just when they were about a hundred meters away from the red line, Fu Zhi unbuckled her seatbelt, crawled over to Li Nanlis side, and planted a kiss on Li Nanlis lips, causing his heart to race hard.

Li Nanli, she said, her voice gentle and seductive, Ive already given what you ask for.

So, dont be sad anymore.

The veins on Li Nanlis hand that was grabbing the steering wheel bulged. From his angle of sight, he could seemingly see stars in her beautiful eyes.

He smiled at her and said, Okay.

As he was talking, just when the yellow sports car was about to overtake him, he stomped on the gas pedal, and the purple sports car dashed forward.

Wow, thats so cool! The woman beside Zhuang Mo exclaimed, but she soon shut her mouth after she saw Zhuang Mos face.

After they had crossed the red line, they came to a steady stop in the parking area. Then, they waited for a while longer before the rest of the young masters slowly arrived one after another.

Some of them then came out of their cars and went up to Li Nanli, Congratulations, President Li. I didnt know that youre not only good at darts but youre also good at racing!

Thats a nice match, President Li. Ms. Fu is good at cooperating with President Li as well, unlike my partner. She started to shout and scream the moment the match starts.

It seems like this is not the first time Ms. Fu partic.i.p.ates in a car race. She doesnt seem afraid at all!

Could it be that Ms. Fu has someone inside the Fu Corporation, so she has been driving around in the Fu Corporations sports cars?

Nope. I dont know anyone from the Fu Corporation, Fu Zhi said, Besides, Im too young for a driving license and Ive never driven any car before. Honestly, I was terrified as well.

Li Nanli rubbed her head, pulled her into his arms, and comforted her, Alright, alright. I promise you I wont drive that fast anymore next time.

Fu Zhi then replied emotionlessly, Then I will try my best to overcome my fear.

One of the young masters chimed in, Really? It seems to me that youre not afraid at all.

Well, I suffer from poker face disorder, so you guys wont be able to see any expression on my face.

The group of young masters became speechless.

Li Nanli rested his chin on Fu Zhis shoulder. He tried his best to keep himself from laughing but he failed. Fu Zhi pinched the back of his hand and reminded him, Can you be professional a little bit?

Sorry, Li Nanli said, still giggling, Ill try my best to keep up with you and not to laugh.

Li Nanli knew Fu Zhi did not want these young masters to learn about the relations.h.i.+p between her and the Fu Corporation. Just as Fu Zhi remained silent towards the group of young masters, Li Nanli took over the key from the referee and reluctantly opened their handcuff. Then, he walked up to Zheng Qu and patted his shoulder.

Since they were standing quite far away, Fu Zhi could not hear what they were talking about, and she only saw his face suddenly turn ashen pale.

After a short while, Li Nanli returned.

While the rest of the young masters bid Fu Zhi goodbye and went away, save for Zhuang Mo.

He psyched himself up and approached Li Nanli, President Li, can I have a few seconds of your time? Do you happen to know about the driver who owns the same sports car like this one and has partic.i.p.ated in the race in Mount Qiu Ling the other days?

Li Nanli lifted his brows and asked, Why are you looking for her?

Zhuang Mos eyes lit up. You know her? If possible, can you give me her phone number? Shes the coolest driver Ive ever seen in my life. I would really want to learn how to drift from her so that I win the world tournament!

Fu Zhi did not know what she should say.

Nope. Cannot. Shes not free, Li Nanli replied. Shes pregnant.

Fu Zhi and Zhuang Mo were stunned.

If theres nothing else, please see yourself out, Young Master Zhuang, Li Nanli continued.

Zhuang Mo was speechless. He did not want to leave, but there was nothing he could do.

Li Nanli turned back to Fu Zhi and said, Ive asked Gu Yanqi to prepare a gift for you, so wait here for a while.

Then, he made a call to Gu Yanqi and asked him to bring the gift over.

While they were waiting for Gu Yanqi, Fu Zhis phone rang a few times from the emba.s.sy as well as the police station.

Fu Zhi answered the call from the emba.s.sy first.

The moment the call was connected, Fu Yuan went straight into the point, Finally! Ive been looking everywhere for you, niece!

Fu Zhi fell silent for a moment before saying, Who are you?

Im Fu Yuan, your uncle. I carried you when youre a baby and Ive fed you milk before, remember?

Fu Zhi did not reply.

Fu Yuan then continued, You used to have a gold locket hanging around your neck when youre a kid, remember? I took it away because I need money for my business, but then I didnt compensate you for the gold locket when the business was successful and you cried for a few days because of your stupidity, remember?

Oh, I remember it now. That stingy uncle.

So? What do you call me for? Fu Zhi asked, her voice turned even colder.

Well, heres the thing. Ive come across some troubles lately, and

Nope. Im too poor to lend you any money, Fu Zhi interrupted before he could finish the sentence.

Then, just when she was about to hang up the call and put him on her blacklist, he hastily said, Hey, hey, hey! Hold on for a second! Im not talking about money, Im talking about Matthew! Fu Yuan hastily said, Im sure you know that Matthew has fallen into the net, right? However, after he was sentenced to death in the first trial, he made unrepentant remarks to the interviewer while being transferred, which caused public outrage and made him a hot topic on social media at home and abroad. In response, we want him to partic.i.p.ate in a live recording and make him apologize for the crime he committed. Were sure that he wont cooperate, so we might need your a.s.sistance.
