Chapter 1: The Fatal Betrayal

Fate took away everything from me in the previous life, probably because I am supposed to receive you, the person who is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

—- Gu Weiwei.

“I can’t live much longer in my condition. If I miss this opportunity, I may not even be able to get a heart with Bombay Blood ever in my life. Mom, I do not want to die, I really don’t…”

“But she saved your life before…”

“So what? Mom, haven’t you understood what a despicable woman she is? She is not clean with her private life. She is so fickle and she even caused my most beloved man to run away from me! She owes me everything, and she can pay it back with her heart! That is her destiny, mom, I really don’t want to die, I really don’t want to leave you…”

On the sickbed of the Intensive Care Unit, Gu Weiwei, who had been stabbed and remained in a coma for two months finally heard a voice.

Whose voice was this?

Could it be Ling Yan?

Ling Yan suffered from congenital heart disease, yet due to the rare blood type, she had never been able to get a heart transplant. The doctor ascertained that she was not going to live past her 25th birthday.

Yet she herself also happened to share the same blood type.

Was she saying that she wanted her heart?

She used all of her strength to force her own eyes open.

She was not dead. She was not going to give her heart to her.

Ji Fang suddenly saw the girl in the sickbed opening her eyes. She instantly turned pale.

“…Weiwei.”

Ling Yan’s face changed instantly. She turned her head around to the girl in bed when she heard the voice. Fright filled up her face.

When did she wake up?

How much did she hear?

Gu Weiwei tried to open her mouth and she was about to speak when she found her throat too dry for her to utter a sound.

Since she had run into many hitmen before, the Gu Family had kept her protected.

She was barely able to make any friends and Ling Yan was the only friend she had.

Since she had always been quite weak, she had tried all she could to satisfy her wishes by being a good sister, so that she would have nothing to regret in her life.

But at this very moment, she was trying to kill her so that she could have her heart?

Ling Yan’s frightened look gradually faded away when she saw what Gu Weiwei looked like now. A sinister smile soon filled up her pale and sick face. Within one second, she grabbed the shot from Ji Fang’s hand.

“Weiwei, you said that we are best friends, and that you can satisfy all of my wishes. I want to live on, so now help me, give me your heart.”

“Yan…” Ji Fang tugged at her daughter, trying to ask her to give up.

Ling Yan looked vicious as she stared at Gu Weiwei with a dark face. “Mom, do you really want to give up your own daughter for the sake of a dirty bitch? It is either her or me! I have no other way out!”

Ling Yan interrupted Ji Fang’s words and injected the drug into Gu Weiwei’s arm. “If Gu Siting knows that she has woken up, he is never going to let me have her heart.”

She would not be able to live and be together with Gu Siting unless Gu Weiwei died.

Gu Weiwei wanted to live so much that she was trying to struggle out of the situation.

But she had been in a coma for two months and she was too weak to fight back.

She saw fierceness filling up Ling Yan’s eyes and Ling Yan was no longer as weak as she had always been. Then Ling Yan injected the drug into her arm and pushed the plunger down slowly.

She was getting weaker and her eyes heavier. Before she was about to close her eyes, she seemed to see the door of the ward opened, through which, a very handsome and elegant man in a protective suit walked in.

The figure she knew so well approached her little by little.

That was Gu Siting!

Gu Siting, save me!

When she knew that Gu Siting was here, Gu Weiwei felt hope coming to her. She tried so hard to make herself conscious.

“How is she? Still in a coma?”

“She is still in a coma. Mom and the other nurses had talked and they said that time is running out.”

After one moment of silence, a low and hoarse voice arose in the ward. “Schedule the operation and move the heart.”

This one line broke Gu Weiwei’s last hope of surviving.

She became less and less conscious until she finally fell into the endless darkness.

Chapter 2: Reborn through Another Soul

She had been drifting in the darkness for a long time when Gu Weiwei suddenly opened her eyes.

She found that she was not lying in the sickbed any more, but was instead in a bedroom that was decorated with a cold color scheme. Someone was taking a bath in the bathroom attached to the bedroom.

She massaged her head and felt the wetness of blood.

As she looked down and found that what she had on her was nothing other than a silk sleeping gown that barely covered her up.

She did not dare to linger any longer in this strange room, so she got up with her hands holding the shelf and tried to stagger towards the outside of the bedroom.

The door of the bathroom opened and she ran into the arms of a man with water droplets on his upper body and a towel around the lower part of his body.

That man looked muscular and indeed had a sexy figure.

She raised her head and had a clear look at his face before she finally widened her eyes in fright.

This was… Fu Hanzheng?

What was she doing here with him?

Fu Hanzheng was the manager of the Fu Family’s Finance of the Hua Land, the top tycoon in business in the Hua Land.

And the Gu Family’s worst enemy.

Fu Hanzheng grabbed hold of the girl’s thin arm and fury danced between his dark and profund eyes as he sneered. “You are not giving up, are you?”

“Giving up what?”

Gu Weiwei struggled. Her arm hurt a bit because of the grip.

What was going on? She was not in the hospital and she was with this man.

Fu Hanzheng’s face fell, he then dragged her to the bedside and pushed her onto the bed.

That was a kind of action with ripping feelings, making Gu Weiwei let out a cry of surprise. She was getting paler and paler.

She struggled hard, trying to escape from him yet was kept down in the bed.

Fu Hanzheng sounded chilly. “You have used this trick many times, and this is what you want, isn’t it?”

“No, it is not me, that is not what I want…” Gu Weiwei wailed.

What happened?

She was not killed by Ling Yan, but ended up with Fu Hanzheng. What had happened?

….

Some time later, she was woken up by a noise, and she couldn’t stay asleep any longer.

“Mu Weiwei, the doctor already said that you are out of danger, what are you still pretending for?”

“Grandma kept you here in the Fu Family because she had pity on you! But you are so greedy as to want to become my sister-in-law!”

Gu Weiwei was confused when she saw this stranger in front of her as well as the weird environment surrounding her.

Before she understood what was going on, Gu Weiwei was pushed into the bathroom where she spotted her reflection in the mirror. She became so frightened that she started to breathe heavily.

It was a very young woman reflected in the mirror who was probably at the age of 18 or 19.

But this was not what she was supposed to look like.

Then suddenly strange memories flooded into her brain.

She looked at the maiden in the mirror in surprise and she was hardly able to believe what had happened to her.

She was dead.

But she had been reborn into another person, someone who was called Mu Weiwei, a girl who was 18 years old.

And what she was suffering from was because the original host of the body was a girl called Mu Weiwei.

Mu Weiwei took advantage of Fu Hanzheng who got a bit tipsy from the banquet the night before and drugged him in the soup, trying to sacrifice herself to him with the sexy sleeping gown on her.

However, Mu Weiwei died before she succeeded.

And she was reborn, so that Gu Weiwei became the person who had to answer for everything Mu Weiwei had done.

Chapter 3: Mu Weiwei

Gu Weiwei stood still for a long time in front of the mirror, trying hard to calm herself down so as to accept what had happened to her.

With people outside the room urging her, she took a quick shower.

Then she picked a beige colored dress that only showed half of her shoulders from among all the other see through clothes that belonged to Mu Weiwei.

Meng Ruya stood behind her back and got very jealous when she saw the traces on her. However, she said with calmness, “Weiwei, did you really… sleep with Master?”

Gu Weiwei noticed Meng Ruya’s look in the reflection of the mirror.

“Should be.”

If it all could have been restarted, she would have chosen not to have been forced to sleep with Fu Hanzheng.

Meng Ruya showed an expression with an affable smile when she saw her turning around.

“Let’s go. The Old Lady and everyone else are already waiting downstairs.”

Even if she had slept with Fu Hanzheng, she would definitely be thrown out of the Fu Family today.

Gu Weiwei pulled herself up and followed Ruya downstairs so as to confront the Fu Family and their interrogation.

Two people were sitting in the living room downstairs. One of them was an old lady with grey hair, she was the Old Lady of the Fu Family. She let out a sigh of disappointment at the sight of her.

The other was the young man who had woken her up upstairs a moment ago. He was Fu Shiqin, the second brother of Fu Hanzheng.

Fu Shiqin had a twin brother called Fu Shiyi, who was absent today.

The last man was Fu Hanzheng, who had… done that with her the night before.

Fu Hanzheng sat still in a suit, giving out an air of arrogance as a nobility.

She understood the situation well, not only because she also shared the same memory with Mu Weiwei, but also because the Fu Family was the worst enemy of the Gu Family who had been after the information on the Fu Family all the time.

As she stood in front of the three of them, she felt as if she was about to be interrogated by three officers.

Fu Shiqin, who had a hot-temper, started to demean her before everyone else.

“Grandma took you into the Fu Family, only because your grandfather saved our grandpa and because you lost your family. We gave you food and a roof over your head, but you are not satisfied. You even want to marry my brother so as to become Lady Fu. You have dreamt too big.”

“Mu Weiwei, nothing will change just because something happened last night.”

….

Gu Weiwei had no words to talk back. She had been the weak one in the incident that happened the night before, but now it looked as if she had stained Fu Hanzheng instead.

Seeing that Gu Weiwei was staying silent, Meng Ruya defended her in a very sweet tone.

“Second Master, Weiwei has suffered a lot from losing her family. She didn’t mean to do what she did.”

“She means everything! She has not stopped a day after she moved into the Fu Family. She keeps pestering my brother and she has broken father’s antique…” Fu Shiqin sneered.

Gu Weiwei did not talk back at all. Instead, she was being very observant.

Fu Hanzheng checked the time and said to Old Lady, “Please get rid of her before I return, or I will do it myself.”

Gu Weiwei was so frightened that she shrank her neck from feeling the killing intent hidden between his words.

Fu Hanzheng was about to go out of the house and head to the company when Meng Ruya received a call. Then she stopped the two of them, looking serious.

“Master, something wrong has happened to the Rose, the painting we auctioned for Mr. Wilson.”

Fu Hanzheng’s face sank slightly. “What is it?”

Meng Ruya threw an embarrassed look at Gu Weiwei, bit her lips and said, “Assistant Xu was busy before, so I brought the painting back with me. On the way back I went to pick up Weiwei who… accidentally spilled the coffee on the painting…”

Chapter 4: The Tricky Meng Ruya

The moment Fu Shiqin heard this, he burst out in anger and bellowed furiously, “Mu Weiwei, we spent tens of millions of yuan on getting the painting and it has everything to do with our important collaboration with Wilson Group, and you spilt coffee on the painting?”

Fu Hanzheng did not show his emotions like Fu Shiqin, yet coldness had already crept over his features. “Anyway to repair it?”

Meng Ruya shook her head helplessly. “I have sent the painting to the experts, and they called to say that the repair was impossible. Mr. Wilson is coming to the capital tomorrow and he and his wife love this painting. What are we going to do?”

Gu Weiwei calmly stared at Meng Ruya who was speaking and slightly sneered. As far as she remembered, the painting was placed in the back seat and she had purposefully asked Mu Weiwei to hold it for her.

And, Meng Ruya had bought her the coffee.

It was Meng Ruya who had bought her the coffee and the coffee was spilled because Meng Ruya had suddenly braked. And now, it seemed that Mu Weiwei had to take the full responsibility.

She was the bad one who tried to offload the blame on Mu Weiwei. What a tricky woman!

Ever since Mu Weiwei moved to the Fu Family, she had been trying to approach her like a sweet big sister. Mu Weiwei was too young and innocent to tell that Meng Ruya was just setting her up.

Meng Ruya told her that Fu Hanzheng liked sexy women, so she dressed herself up in a very mature way, covering up her originally beautiful youthful face. As a result, she looked just like a staff member in a night club whose job was to drink with the old and the rich.

Meng Ruya told her that if the Feng Shui of the Fu Family could be changed, her relationship with Fu Hanzheng could also be changed, which was why she went to move the things in the house and ended up breaking the antique vase of the Fu Family.

….

One step after another, Mu Weiwei gradually became the girl who was detested by the entire Fu Family.

Mu Weiwei might be young and brainless so she did not understand this woman’s trick. But she was Gu Weiwei and she was not stupid. Meng Ruya had not been helping her all this time and instead, she was trying to get Fu Hanzheng and the Fu Family to dislike her so that she could be thrown out in the end.

Fu Hanzheng threw a cold look at Gu Weiwei. “Mu Weiwei, regardless of everything else, you must answer the consequences.”

The Old Lady threw a look at Gu Weiwei who was standing in silence. “Weiwei, did you really… ruin the painting?”

Gu Weiwei nodded obediently, “Yes, I spilled the coffee.”

It had not been Mu Weiwei’s intentions but the coffee spilled because of her.

Old Lady let out a sigh of disappointment. What happened last night had already annoyed Hanzheng, who didn’t ask her to take responsibility because of his grandma. What he had asked her to do was to move out of the house.

But now it was a matter of a company’s collaboration. Fu’s Enterprise and Wilson Group had been in communication for months and it took them ages for Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson to come to the country for detailed communication regarding the collaboration.

Since the couple were very interested in Priam’s paintings, they spent a lot of effort trying to find one of the works, so as to give to the couple as a present.

And now, this painting, which had been so hard to acquire, was ruined by Mu Weiwei’s coffee.

Fu Hanzheng threw a look at Meng Ruya. “Send the painting back.”

Meng Ruya instantly made a call. Within an hour’s time, the ruined-painting was placed in front of Gu Weiwei.

Fu Hanzheng sounded fierce. “You have two choices – first of all, repair the painting so it becomes perfectly fine. Secondly, find another painting by Priam.”

Gu Weiwei blinked and looked sinister yet intelligent at the same time.

“Any third choices?”

Fu Hanzheng looked completely chill as he stared at her.

“Or, take responsibility.”

“Master, Weiwei didn’t mean it. Priam has few to no paintings out there that can be found. We spent months trying to find such a painting. How will she be able to get one right now?” Meng Ruya stood up and continued to plead for her.

“Ruya, stop defending her. If she doesn’t take responsibility, she will end up in jail.” Fu Shiqin snorted.

Meng Ruya threw a look at Fu Hanzheng’s cold expression and showed an invisible smile.

Mu Weiwei was certainly going to be kicked out of the Fu Family this time.

She couldn’t even move into this house, what made this little girl become a resident anyways?

Gu Weiwei was not frightened by the situation. She threw a look at the painting placed in front of her.

“Actually, you should all thank me.”

Chapter 5: I Call You Dad

“Thank you?” Fu Shiqin got so annoyed that he burst into laughter, thinking that this woman must have gone crazy. “Mu Weiwei, you just ruined a famous painting we spent tens of millions on, and you want us to thank you? Is it me or you who is the maniac?”

She ruined a painting worth tens of millions of yuan and she was still cheeky enough to ask them to thank her instead?

“Of course you are the one who is a maniac.” Gu Weiwei squinted at him.

“You…”

Gu Weiwei looked at the oil painting and it was one of the Rose Garden series paintings by Priam, a famous European painter during the 19th century. The rose in the painting looked pretty, yet because of the coffee that permeated the canvas, the entire painting looked very dim and both the original beauty and the artistic conception were no longer there.

“You spent tens of millions of yuan upon a forgery. Tell me, are you a maniac or not?”

“A forgery?!” Fu Shiqin became so speechless when he heard her trying to defend herself with unreasonable excuses.

“You have no knowledge of painting or experience in painting, how would you know if a painting is real or false?”

Meng Ruya added directly, “The painting is bought from the original auction platform and the expert has made an evaluation upon it too. It can’t be a forgery.”

She found the painting and she went to the auction to buy the painting, and now she said that this painting worth tens of millions was a forgery? She was bringing Meng Ruya down!

Fu Hanzheng looked even colder. “You better have a perfect explanation for your discovery.”

Gu Weiwei looked at him and said one word after another clearly, “Priam’s paintings are often done with a technique of thin painting so the result turns out to be transparent or semi-transparent, and his paintings often look very lively. This forgery looks very similar, yet it is not at all done by Priam.”

“I have learnt painting for so many years so why didn’t I see anything of what you just said?” Meng Ruya asked with a light smile.

Gu Weiwei smiled and said straightforwardly, “If you still do not believe me, go and find Mr. Ming Zongyuan. He is an expert for Priam’s paintings and the director of National Association of Fine Arts. He should be able to tell whether the painting is real or fake if he can take a look at it.”

“Ha, so you will never give up until you are on the verge of death!”

Fu Shiqin let out a cold laugh. He had never seen such a cheeky person before.

He did not object to her moving into the Fu Family or pestering his brother all the time, for she was young and innocent, but she was trying to find an unreasonable excuse for what she had done wrong at this moment!

Old Lady took a look at Fu Hanzheng. “Even if you want her to take responsibility, you will have to be completely convinced. Ask Mr. Ming to come here and take a look at it.”

Fu Hanzheng made a call to his assistant to ask Ming Zongyuan to come over to take a look at the painting.

Fu Shiqin snorted. “Alright, let’s ask Mr. Ming to take a look. When the results come out, let’s see what more you can say.”

“If it is real, I will make compensation at any cost.” Having said the words, Gu Weiwei laughed sinisterly, “What if it is a forgery?”

“If it is false, I will call you dad.” Fu Shiqin snorted.

“Very well! Don’t break your promise.” Gu Weiwei got up and said to Old Lady.

“Grandma Fu, I will go pack.”

Grandma Fu nodded. Because of what had happened the night before, Hanzhang was never going to allow her to stay here any more, no matter whether the painting was fake or real.

Gu Weiwei went upstairs to pack up Mu Weiwei’s stuff. Having done the packing, she did not hurry downstairs but sat quietly in the room calmly, trying to think about what she should do with her life.

After a long time, Fu Shiqin went upstairs, pushed the door open with displeasure on his face and said with a sneer, “Mu Weiwei, Mr. Ming is here, and it is too late for you to hide.”

Chapter 6: I Call You Dad 2

Without much protest, Gu Weiwei opened the door and followed Fu Shiqin downstairs with luggage.

On the first floor, an old man around the age of 70 years old was talking with Fu Hanzheng and others.

“Mr. Ming, Assistant Xu must have told you why we asked you to come here. Please take a look at this painting by Priam to see if it is a forgery or a real one.”

“A painting by Priam?” Ming Zongyuan became very surprised.

As he was talking, he pulled out his glasses and put them on. “There are very few paintings by him out there, and you are even able to find one?”

“Bought it from an underground auction platform.” Fu Hanzheng pointed at the painting on the table. “You are an expert of Priam’s paintings, so please take a look at it.”

Ming Zongyuan got very excited when he heard that it was a painting by Priam. He came to the table and took a closer look at the painting when his face suddenly sank.

“How is it? It is real, isn’t it?” Fu Shiqin just couldn’t wait to get the answer.

Ming Zongyuan removed his glasses and frowned deeply as he turned to Fu Shiqin and the others with displeasure on his face, “Are you guys trying to joke with me?”

Fu Hanzheng squinted. “Are you saying that this painting is… a forgery?”

Fu Shiqin was startled, leaned forward at the painting and said unconvinced, “Mr. Ming, please take a look at the painting carefully, what about me getting you a magnifier to take a closer look at it? The painting cost tens of millions, how could it be a forgery!”

“Tens of millions?” Ming Zongyu was not even bothered to take another look as if one more look would ruin his eyes.

“Who is such a maniac as to spend tens of millions upon a forgery?”

Meng Ruya threw a look at Fu Hanzheng and panicked slightly. She forced a smile out of her and said in a trying tone, “Mr. Ming, please take a closer look at it. You only looked for a second at the painting and concluded that it is a forgery, isn’t that too reckless?”

She was the one who had helped with the painting and she would have to be responsible if that was really a false painting, otherwise she would end up giving Mu Weiwei the credit instead of defiling her!

Ming Zongyuan sounded very impatient. “I don’t have to take a closer look at it! I have seen too many of Priam’s paintings and I can tell the forgery from the authentic with one look!”

“Also, the real painting is the favorite collection of one of my fellows, and I saw this painting in their home. They are not a poor family and they wouldn’t have sold the painting to anyone else.”

He was so fascinated by Priam’s paintings that he became very displeased when he ran into these forgeries.

Fu Shiqin had gathered up tons of words just to belittle Gu Weiwei after Ming Zongyuan’s evaluation, but now, when the painting turned out to be a forgery, he had to keep all of those words down.

Meng Ruya, who had spent tens of millions of yuan upon the forgery, dared not utter a single word when she found herself in a disadvantageous position.

Fu Hanzheng looked up at Gu Weiwei who was walking downstairs. It was impossible to read what he was thinking at that moment.

“Weiwei, how did you know that the painting is false?” Old Lady asked curiously.

Everyone turned to Gu Weiwei after Old Lady’s question.

Chapter 7: Trap for Grandson

“My mother used to like oil painting and she often took me to exhibitions abroad. I have seen other paintings by this artist so the difference was very easily noticed.” Gu Weiwei explained in a very brief way.

As a matter of fact, the real version of this painting Rose was already purchased by the Gu Family eight years ago. It had been hung in the living room of the Gu Family ever since.

Mother Gu had always been interested in Priam’s paintings so she had many paintings by Priam at home as collections. Ming Zongyuan had been to the Gu Family as a fellow painting hobbyist and that was where he saw the real version of this painting.

Ming Zongyuan could not help but throw a few more glances at the girl who was standing to the side with her luggage when he heard that she spotted the forgery first.

“You can see it clearly, little girl. Although it is a forgery, the painter did make it look like an authentic one. I would not have been able to tell the difference within such a short time if I had not seen the authentic one first.”

Gu Weiwei smiled. “Just a coincidence.”

It was just a coincidence that she had also seen the authentic version before as well.

“Ruya, you are just being so careless. How could you make such a mistake upon this important event. If Weiwei had not noticed that it is a forgery in time, and the painting had been delivered to Mr. and Mrs. Wilson tomorrow, Fu’s Enterprise would have lost a great deal!”

“I… I didn’t expect that either, the middle man guaranteed that it was an authentic painting!” Meng Ruya looked guilty and muttered with explanation.

Fu Hanzhang glanced at his assistant Xu Qian. “Go and call the lawyer and find the middle agent and the auctioneer. They must pay back what we have lost. That is your job, do not leave it to anyone else.”

This command was directed towards Xu Qian and also towards Meng Ruya as well.

“Yes, Boss. I am on it.” Xu Qian nodded.

“Brother, let Ruya and myself go together. Xu Qian has to host the meeting in the afternoon.” Fu Shiqin volunteered.

Since the painting was a forgery, he had to call Mu Weiwei dad according to the bet they had set up just now. So he must take off as soon as possible.

Meng Ruya glared at Gu Weiwei next to her. She had planned to punish her so she could be thrown out of Landscape Villa completely, but what she had not expected was that not only Mu Weiwei was not set up, she had lost her credit instead.

Fu Hanzheng poured a cup of tea for Ming Zongyuan in person. “Mr. Ming, this is an emergency for us. We are in desperate need of a painting by Priam, so could you please… spare one for us?”

Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson were deeply interested in Priam’s paintings, yet they were unable to find an authentic painting by Priam at such a short notice.

Mr. Ming had many collections by Priam. As long as he could spare one painting for them, the emergency would be solved.

“Definitely not! They are all of my precious treasures and I will not spare any no matter how much you try to pay me.” Ming Zongyuan instantly took off without bothering to drink the tea when he heard that he wanted to get a piece of treasure from him.

Fu Hanzheng was very aware that it was impossible to make Ming Zongyuan change his mind so quickly. So he stopped asking him.

“Xu Qian, see Mr. Ming off.”

After Ming Zongyuan left, Fu Hanzheng looked at Gu Weiwei with a look of surveying. After a moment, Fu Hanzheng said slowly, “You are right about the painting, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that you can stay here.”

Gu Weiwei replied instantly, “I get it. I will leave this place right now and I will never show up in front of you again t.”

Fu Hanzheng, “…”

Chapter 8: Stupidity

Jinxiu Compound.

Jinxiu Compound belonged to the Fu Family, and it had always been vacant. After Gu Weiwei moved out, she lived in Jinxiu Compound for the time being.

It was a new apartment, not as luxurious as Landscape Villa. But it was well-decorated and the necessities for daily life are available.

Gu Weiwei cleaned the room, unpacked her luggage and rushed into the shower.

She removed the make-up that made her look so old and changed into a T-shirt and a pair of jeans.

After taking a rest at the new apartment for a while, she changed her wavy styled hair into a straight style. Then she went out to buy some daily clothes and necessities.

After shopping and returning home, she received a call from Old Lady, who asked her for a favor from Ming Zongyuan whom she met the other day.

….

At the headquarters building of Fu’s Enterprise.

The Deputy President Fu Shiqin had just accompanied Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson to their hotel and he was very anxious as he came back to the company.

“This couple is so difficult to deal with. We have made the biggest compromise! What more do they want?”

Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson arrived in the country the day before and the meeting had been going on for two days, yet the collaboration was still not yet confirmed.

This was a deal worth tens of billions of yuan and it would have a great deal to do with the expansion of Fu’s Enterprise in the S Land. The loss would be tremendous if the deal was off.

“Still didn’t work out with Mr. Ming?” Fu Hanzheng looked extremely displeased.

Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson asked about a painting by Priam, and apparently, that was the key to this entire matter.

Fu Shiqin sighed anxiously, “That old dude is as stubborn as a rock! I almost kneeled down to kowtow to him! But he still does not want to spare a painting.”

Fu Hanzheng pinched his eyebrows. “Prepare some first-rate tea. I will visit him tomorrow.”

Fu’s Enterprise had been preparing for the collaboration with the Wilson Group for a long time and nothing must go wrong.

“I don’t think he will spare us a painting, even if you call him Dad.” Fu Shiqin’s lips pursed.

The two were in the middle of sinking into anxiety when Meng Ruya suddenly came up to them. “President Fu, Mr. Ming has been persuaded.”

“Really?” Fu Shiqin stood up excitedly.

Meng Ruya nodded with a smile. “Mr. Ming agrees to spare one painting by Priam and he even invited Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson to have a visit to his villa tomorrow for a look at his personal collection.”

Fu Hanzheng’s expression relaxed as he nodded. “You can go back to rest, the meeting will be tomorrow afternoon.”

Meng Ruya must have spent a great deal of time with Mr. Ming so that she looked quite tired with black rings emerging under her eyes.

“I will keep you company tomorrow. Mrs. Wilson would need a girl to keep her company when you men are talking business.”

Fu Hanzheng thought for a second. “Go home and rest today, we will need you again tomorrow.”

Meng Ruya smiled brightly and left the office of the President.

Fu Shiqin felt his chin and mumbled curiously, “How on earth did she manage to persuade that old dude? He was so stubborn with us!”

He had been to the Ming Family several times these past two days and he had said whatever he could just to persuade Ming Zongyuan to spare one painting. Yet he failed each time.

Ruya was indeed a professional PR manager who was able to deal with such a difficult man.

Chapter 9: Thank Mu Weiwei Instead

On the afternoon of the following day, Fu Hanzheng accompanied Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson to Ming Zongyuan’s house for a visit.

Ming Zongyuan was a significant figure in the art field of the Hua Land, and in common with Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson, he was also a fan of Priam. They had a very nice conversation and he had not only given one painting by Priam to the couple, but also invited them to have an afternoon tea at the Ming Family’s house.

Mrs. Wilson spoke highly of the desert the Ming Family prepared for her and when she was about to leave, she brought with her a piece back to the hotel.

For the whole time, until the evening when Mr. Wilson got into the car, he spoke in Chinese that was barely up to standard.

“Mr. Fu, we got… way too many surprises today and I hope that we can have a pleasant collaboration together.”

“I do look forward to our collaboration.” Fu Hanzheng said with a light smile.

“Also, the dessert is very tasty, my wife loves it.” Mr. Wilson said as he shook hands with Fu Hanzheng.

“Then see you again tomorrow.” Fu Hanzheng shook hands with him and left after they both went into the car.

Fu Shiqin, on the other hand, was so disappointed when he saw that Mr. Wilson’s assistant took away half a piece of the cake. It was way too delicious for him who had a sweet tooth.

He had planned to get the dessert for himself after the meeting, but Mrs. Wilson was one step ahead of him. That made his heart ache.

Seeing the couple’s car going away, Meng Ruya said with a smile, “Judging from what Mr. Wilson said just now, the deal should be on?”

“They have taken our painting and our food! Of course it has to work!” Fu Shiqin snorted.

Fu Hanzheng threw a side look at Meng Ruya. “You did well today.”

Meng Ruya smiled sweetly. “I caused all the trouble, and I am just making it up to you.”

“You have been working very hard these two days so feel free to take a few days off.” Fu Hanzheng said.

The PR Department did not have to be involved when it came to the collaboration meeting that was going to happen later on.

“I can take the holiday after the signing is done. I may need to take care of Mrs. Wilson in the later processes.”

She had established a proper image in front of Fu Hanzheng today and she must take this opportunity to propel their relationship.

Mrs. Fu adored her, and as long as she could, she would always make an effort on her relationship with Fu Hanzheng.

She was definitely going to be Mrs. Fu. It was a good that the stupid Mu Weiwei had discovered the forgery and stopped the embarrassment in time, so that she ended up persuading Mr. Ming to spare a painting and arranging the afternoon tea for them. In this way, she got all the credit and created an excellent impression upon Fu Hanzheng.

“Very well.” Fu Hanzheng nodded and then he threw a side look at Fu Shiqin. “Have you got the things for Mr. Ming prepared?”

“Of course.”

Fu Shiqin took out the antique from his car and followed his brother into the Ming Family’s house to express their gratitude.

In the Chinese-style garden in the Ming Family’s villa, the group found the old man who was feeding the fish.

“Mr. Ming, we are very thankful for what you have done for us. Please accept our gift.”

“The couple changed their attitude tremendously after they saw your painting and ate your cake.”

Fu Shiqin was very excited. The collaboration would make sure that the Fu’s Enterprise could find a position in S Land and it was very important for them.

Ming Zongyuan fed the fish, rubbed the hands and said, “No need for the present. Mu girl has already given me the thank you fgift and she delivered the cake too. You should thank her instead.”

Fu Hanzheng squinted. “Did you mean… Mu Weiwei?”

Chapter 10: A Pretty Mu Weiwei?

Fu Shiqin stared at Ming Zongyuan with a confused look and then threw a look at Meng Ruya, “Wasn’t it you who persuaded Mr. Ming?”

Why was Mu Weiwei the ugly, sappy girl involved again?

Meng Ruya was also confused. “I was around the Ming Family’s house all the time, but I didn’t see Weiwei either.”

Fu Shiqin smiled at Ming Zongyuan and asked, “Mr. Ming, did you say Mu girl, or Meng girl?”

He might have made a verbal mistake whilst he was actually referring to Miss. Meng, namely Meng Ruya.

“I meant Mu Weiwei. I know no one called Miss. Meng.” Ming Zongyuan rolled his eyes at him.

Meng Ruya’s face changed and she still kept a smile on her face. “Mr. Ming, you told me yesterday that you can spare a painting for us.”

Now Ming Zongyuan was reminded of what happened. “Weiwei left after she talked with me yesterday, so you were just the messenger.”

Meng Ruya became so embarrassed that her face was completely red as if she had been slapped right across the face by some intangible forces.

Damn it, Mu Weiwei again.

She had not only pointed out the forgery she bought but also totally humiliated her.

Right now, Mu Weiwei again ruined the good feelings she had tried so hard to establish in front of Fu Hanzheng.

Ming Zongyuan. “Take away your presents. But just answer me one question.”

Fu Hanzheng’s eyes looked profound. “What question?”

Ming Zongyuan glanced at Fu Hanzheng and Fu Shiqin as he asked, “Mu girl has nothing to do with you guys, does she?”

“What do you mean?” Fu Shiqin was confused.

“I mean, she is neither one of your girlfriends, is she?”

“No, absolutely not. Who would want a girl like her? You’d get a nightmare!” Fu Shiqin shook his head and denied it when he thought of Mu Weiwei.

If she was anyhow related, it was probably only because of the one-night stand with his brother.

Ming Zongyuan nodded with satisfaction after hearing his answer. “That’s good. My grandson doesn’t have a girlfriend and Mu Weiwei is a pretty girl and smart, definitely his type…”

“Mr. Ming, are you sure you are not setting up a trap for your own grandson?” Fu Shiqin burst into laughter when he heard that Ming Zongyuan wanted to set up a date between his grandson and Mu Weiwei.

How could Mu Weiwei be pretty?

But if Mr. Ming set her up with his own grandson, he did make some contributions for society!

Fu Hanzheng did not ask or say any further. He got into the car and drove off, leaving Meng Ruya standing there all alone, hating Mu Weiwei to the bone.

…

Jinxiu Compound.

Gu Weiwei was watching a teen romance on TV and put down the noodles she had just cooked. She felt like puking. The leading actress was called Li Xing’er, a relatively popular actress in Hua Land.

She was also the elder sister of Mu Weiwei who shared a different mother with her.

Li Xing’er’s mother Zhou Meiqin used to be a poor student from a rural area. She was able to attend University because of the help from the Mu Family and became a schoolmate with her mother Mu Yao. They soon became good friends.

The Mu Family supported Zhou Meiqin until she finished college and then sent her overseas for further studies. They even made her a high position director at Longsheng Enterprise when she returned from the studies. However, Zhou Meiqin did not show any gratitude. She soon hooked up with Mu Yao’s newly-wedded husband Li Jiacheng and they two had an affair for decades and two love children.

Mu Yao who had no idea of what had happened and had even asked Zhou Meiqin to be the godmother of her daughter. It was not until one year ago when Mu Yao discovered their relationship and left with Mu Weiwei. However, a car accident happened to her halfway.

Mu Yao died right away and Mu Weiwei was in a coma for months. When she woke up from the coma, Zhou Meiqin had moved into the Mu Family with her two love children Li Xing’er and Li Xiangxiang.

Mu Weiwei, who was the real daughter of the Mu Family, was driven out of her own house and had nowhere else to go.

Whenever she thought about this, Gu Weiwei would have a touch of coldness flashing across her eyes. Since she had survived for Mu Weiwei, she would get everything back that belonged to her.

Chapter 11: To Embarrass the Piano Champion

Early in the morning, Gu Weiwei had just gotten up when she received the call from the school. The school informed her that if she did not live there, she must remove her things from the dormitory.

After Mu Weiwei was thrown out of her own home, Old Lady took her into the Fu Family. Since she had been fascinated by Fu Hanzheng’s extraordinary appearance, she had an excuse that she had complications after the car accident and asked for leave from school and stayed at home for several more months.

When she came to the school dorm, the dorm director told her that her stuff had been given to Zhou Linna, who was one of her roommates.

Gu Weiwei was extremely annoyed inside her heart. She had seen Zhou Meiqin’s daughter on TV at home and now she ran into Zhou Meiqin’s niece who had been given her things.

Zhou Linna had just won the championship at the ‘Capital Teen Music Competition’ and now she was the ambassador of Yingcheng High School.

All the girls at school worshipped her and even the teachers and the leaders at school regarded her as the apple of their eyes.

In order to get her things back, Gu Weiwei went to the music classroom to meet Zhou Linna, who was in the middle of an interview with the TV Station.

However, she failed to enter through the door because of the student crowd outside the room. Those students were all her fans.

The girls outside the classroom were so envious of Zhou Linna, who they saw sitting by the piano elegantly.

“Senior Sister Linna is not only the prettiest girl in the campus, but also a genius in piano. She is definitely the Goddess of Yingcheng High School. She may become a famous pianist in two years.”

“Maybe she will be a singer. If that is the case, I will be her No.1 Fan.”

“And when she played with Senior Brother Qin Lv at the art festival, they looked so cute together.”

….

Gu Weiwei was just thinking how she should get in to get her things back from Zhou Linna when the music teacher Ye Mei came out and asked the students at the classroom door.

“The TV Station is going to make a video of Linna playing piano with one of her classmates as the promotional clip for the school. We need one student from the music institute. ”

However, the girls from the music class exchanged looks with each other, all of them felt unwilling to go.

Recently, the music teacher even skipped their classes in order to mentor Zhou Linna for her competition.

Now, the teacher even asked the students to be put into the shadow of Zhou Linna… it was simply over the top.

Seeing that no one was willing to step out, the music teacher was about to go inside and have a discussion with the people from TV Station when Gu Weiwei raised her hand among the crowd. “I will do it!”

“Okay, come here.”

The music teacher asked her to come over to her side when she saw someone volunteering.

But she didn’t recognize her as one of the students from her music class.

“Can you play the piano?”

“Learned it for a few years.”

The music teacher brought her into the classroom and told Zhou Linna who was busy doing makeup.

“Linna, work with this student later.”

Zhou Linna squinted at her and snorted.

“You gave up piano years ago. Can you still play a single tune?”

Gu Weiwei ignored her sneering. “Give my things back to me.”

“Back to you?” Zhou Linna sneered provocatively after she finished the makeup. “No problem. If you can beat me in piano playing, I will give them back to you.”

Gu Weiwei clenched her teeth. Zhou Linna and Li Xing’er had been picking on Mu Weiwei all the time and now after she won a championship, she became increasingly prideful.

Zhou Linna had thought that she was scared, so she lowered her voice and said, “If you do not dare to accept the challenge, then I will have to toss away your trash. Your mother’s remaining things are among the trash too…”

Gu Weiwei suddenly turned cold and said with a chilly voice, “Do I not dare to take the challenge against… you? Funny!”

Chapter 12: To Embarrass the Piano Champion 2

Zhou Linna’s face changed when she heard the words. This little b*tch still dared to challenge her? She had the Mu Family to support her before, so she had thought that she was better than anyone else.

But the Mu Family was gone and she was the only one left, and she still thought that she was worth anything?

What was more annoying was that she had taken Qin Lv’s heart.

Qin Lv once had a picture of Mu Weiwei playing the piano in his wallet. Whenever she thought of this matter, she wanted nothing more than to trample her down under her feet.

Zhou Linna sneered and glanced at the music teacher, “Since you dare to take the challenge, then let’s start the contest. The teacher will name the question, in case you blame me for losing later.”

Gu Weiwei replied without expression, “Suit yourself.”

“Let’s do some spontaneous warm-ups. Linna, you can play one song for Mu Weiwei to copy, and then Mu Weiwei can play one song for Linna to copy.”

Gu Weiwei nodded and agreed. Then she went over to the other piano to move her fingers a bit.

Zhou Linna smiled at the audience, placed her hands on the keys and played a very catchy song in grace.

Then, she turned to Gu Weiwei and looked at her arrogantly.

“Your turn now.”

Spontaneous performance meant that the performer must copy the previous performance without missing one note, and the listener had to have a perfect sense of music and amazing memory so that they could accurately remember every note the first performer had played.

The girls who had been asked to do the performance had refused to perform because they didn’t want to embarrass themselves. They were all quite nervous for Gu Weiwei.

After hearing the performance, Gu Weiwei grazed over the keys and her slender, white fingers hopped along the keys and performed every single note by Zhou Linna accurately.

After she finished her performance, she played one spontaneous song for Zhou Linna as well.

Zhou Linna was quite capable after all and so she in turn accurately copied Gu Weiwei’s music.

The music teacher threw a surprised look at Mu Weiwei after the performance.

Among all the students she taught, Zhou Linna was the only student who could copy a song after listening to it once.

“Since we can’t really make a grade of this round, we can make the contest a bit harder.”

The journalist asked curiously on site. “What song are you going to play this time, Linna.”

“Flight of the Bumblebee”. Zhou Linna smiled elegantly.

Zhu Xiaoqin, who was Zhou Linna’s No.1 Fan threw a look at Gu Weiwei who was moving her wrist and snorted, “The show is on. Linna won the championship with this very song and Mu Weiwei will have nothing to beat her with.”

“Mu Weiwei won the prize when she was little with Flight of the Bumblebee too. Maybe she can play that too.” One student said enthusiastically.

Zhu Xiaoqin rolled her eyes at the student and said with pride, “That is not going to help at all. Normally, people can only play seven or eight notes within a second, but our Linna can play twelve notes within a second. That is how she won the competition by exceeding everyone else. Even the teachers of Capital Music School think that she was very professional.”

As they were arguing, Zhou Linna had started her performance.

This indeed was what made her famous. She played so perfectly in both strength and rhythm that her ten fingers were hopping up and down on the black and white keys.

After the performance was done, applause arose from outside the classroom and the sound of praise echoed everywhere.

Chapter 13: To Embarrass the Piano Champion 3

It was not until a long time later did the journalist for interviews remember that Mu Weiwei had not yet played the song. He asked courteously, “Mu Weiwei, would you like to have a go?”

Gu Weiwei frowned with a troubled expression. “I don’t play this song that often. Can I take a look at the music score please?”

“Just give up if you can’t play it. Don’t pretend as if you can play at an equal level if you take a look at the notes.” Zhu Xiaoqin said callously without hesitation.

“True, someone just has no idea of how weak she is.”

“What is so good about a stupid prize won at primary school? The prize Linna got was for the most valuable and professional prize for piano.”

….

Some Junior Sisters who supported Zhou Linna started to sneer at Gu Weiwei who even needed to ask for the music score, after hearing Zhou Linna’s performance.

“This is Linna’s catch song, and it is natural that she is familiar with it. Let Mu Weiwei read the score, this is a fair game.” The host suggested.

The music teacher asked the student to get her the score for Flight of the Bumblebee and when she gave it to her, she consoled her with kind words.

“Try your best, don’t feel pressured.”

She was asked to be put into the shadows by Zhou Linna anyway.

“Thanks.”

Gu Weiwei took the music score and devoted herself to reading every single note.

Mu Weiwei had not touched the piano for a long time. Although she was good at playing piano, she barely played this song before. It was not enough to just hear Zhou Linna playing it once at such a speed.

Fortunately, she always had an amazing memory, so that she was able to memorize anything after reading it once or twice.

The students outside the classroom were about to leave when they found her reading the score sheet and refusing to play.

However, they had just reached the staircase when the melody of Flight of the Bumblebee arose from the classroom, and the performance sounded as good as the one done by Zhou Linna.

Therefore, they all turned their heads back and saw the girl wearing a cap fully devoted to the performance. The score was put aside and she barely had a look at it.

One baby faced boy in the crowd was making a clip of the devoted piano girl with his cell-phone whilst mumbling.

“Master Lv, it was the beautiful Zhou girl a minute ago and now it is your crush who is at the piano. Mu Weiwei must be a monster, isn’t she? She said that she couldn’t play a thing a minute ago and now she plays even better after reading the music score once or twice. That is totally crazy.”

On the other side of the cell-phone, a clear voice of a young man said, “Can you just shut up?”

Even the students who were not from the music major could tell that Gu Weiwei gave a better performance than Zhou Linna, let alone the music teacher and the T.V host who were in the industry. They were so shocked that their eyes almost rolled out of their sockets.

With a straight back, the girl had her ten longer fingers dancing upon the keyboard, and what the eyes of the audience could see was the phantom of the fingers. Zhou Linna might have put on an almost perfect performance, but Mu Weiwei had put on an extremely flawless, performance show in this hour.

Zhou Linna’s smile disappeared gradually with Gu Weiwei’s performance and what remained on her exquisitely-powdered face were fury and coldness.

Gu Weiwei looked up and let out a sigh of relief after she finished the last note.

“This is called excellence. What kind of performance was it just a while ago?”

“I made some calculations and she played 16 notes within one second when she was playing at her highest speed. How many hands does she have?”

“Hehe, someone says that this song makes Zhou Linna famous and that she won the competition and exceeded everyone else.”

“Haha, someone wanted to show off with her catch song and now she is totally embarrassed.”

“Don’t you think that what is coming next will be even more interesting?” A short fair haired girl said with a smile.

“Mu Weiwei has managed to copy Zhou Linna’s song, but will Zhou Linna be able to copy Mu Weiwei’s upcoming song?”

Chapter 14: The Excellent Show

Zhu Xiaoqin, who was Zhou Linna’s follower, spoke with displeasure when she heard people demeaning Zhou Linna next to her.

“She was lying about not playing the song before. She must have practiced it hundreds of times before.”

“True! Our Linna still has skills that she is yet to show.”

….

The girls from the piano classes rolled their eyes at her. The short haired girl Luo Qianqian squinted at the junior sister who defended Zhou Linna.

“The best Zhou Linna could do was to play 12 notes within one second, but this girl played 16 notes within one second. And apparently, Zhou Linna played too fast at the first few sections so the rhythm became chaotic. But Mu Weiwei had a good control of every note and rhythm, and that was perfect! Stop being embarrassing just because you don’t know anything about music!”

Zhou Linna could have been a professional, but indeed Mu Weiwei was a master.

“Qianqian, we don’t need to tell them anything. Let’s see if Zhou Linna can do anything later.” Ji Cheng, who was wearing her hair in a bun, said as she stood next to Luo Qianqian.

After Gu Weiwei finished the performance, the music teacher smiled dryly.

“Mu Weiwei, you don’t seem to be so unfamiliar with this song.”

“Oh, I don’t normally play Flight of the Bumblebee.” Gu Weiwei smiled.

After hearing her performance, the host asked curiously, “Now it is time for you to play your song. What is your plan?”

Gu Weiwei exercised her knuckles and said mysteriously.

“Just one practice song.”

Zhou Linna took a deep breath and pulled herself up. She must not lose, especially not to Mu Weiwei.

However, after Gu Weiwei reached the first section at a high speed, her mind became totally blank.

Even the music teacher and the interview journalist turned pale after they heard what she was playing.

The song she played was not as arising and interesting as Flight of the Bumblebee, but a piano song that was single in long notes and full of two-tones. It was a song that was rarely heard in daily life.

And although she played fast and used a tricky technique with fingers, the song she presented sounded plucky and fun, and ended within just four minutes.

After Gu Weiwei finished the song, Zhou Linna, who was sitting opposite her, looked slightly desperate and pale.

Zhu Xiaoqin and several of her supporters were a bit worried. “Linna doesn’t look so well. Is she unwell?”

Ji Cheng sneered at Zhou Linna’s trouble. “She is completely fine! She is just so shocked by Mu Weiwei’s performance that she has no idea what to do.”

“Mu Weiwei is crazy! She played Feux Follets No.5 by Franz Liszt.” Another girl was very surprised.

Zhu Xiaoqin said unconvinced, “Liszt is nothing. Linna played La campanella before and she did it well. She doesn’t play this one often and soon she will copy it and play it out accurately! Just wait and see.”

“She won’t even if she is given a year.” Luo Qianqian continued as she saw Zhou Linna’s shivering hands.

“That is a super practicing song by Franz Liszt, and the Mt. Everest in piano practicing songs. Only people with the highest skills are able to play it, because you need to be very fast with your fingers. Few professional pianists would dare to take this challenge and Zhou Linna is not capable of playing that at all.”

“True. Feux Follets No.5 shows the most magnificent skills.”

“Haha, no wonder Mu Weiwei never plays Flight of the Bumblebee. It’s just too boring for her. She only plays the most difficult songs, okay?”

Chapter 15: The Excellent Show 2

Luo Qianqian and Ji Cheng’s sneering voices greeted Zhou Linna’s ears, making her completely pale.

She had believed that she would be able to beat her, knowing that Mu Weiwei had not touched the piano for years. But this girl ended up playing the super difficult practice melody of Feux Follets No.5!

And she herself had no memory of a single note that Mu Weiwei had played.

Gu Weiwei glanced at Zhou Linna with mocked consolation. “What about reading the music score vtoo?”

Her piano teachers had always been the most famous pianists across the world, and Zhou Linna’s capability was not even a match against her at the age of eight.

Mu Weiwei played piano well too, and she had even won prizes at music festivals. But she gradually lost touch with the piano after she entered high school. She was not like Gu Weiwei who could get the best teachers in the world and learn whatever she wanted to learn.

The music teacher took a look at Zhou Linna and said with a dry smile, “This is a rare song and score sheets can hardly be found. What about changing it to another one?”

As Zhou Linna’s teacher, she knew pretty well how far Zhou Linna could go.

This song was impossible for Zhou Linna and for the teacher as well.

Luo Qianqian bent down and scooped out her cherished music score and handed it out, “Ms. Ye, I have the music score here.”

Ji Cheng asked Luo Qianqian with a small voice when she returned. “Qianqian, why are you helping her?”

Luo Qianqian sneered. “Don’t worry. She won’t be able to play a thing even with the music.”

Without music scores she could find an excuse to get herself out of performing on the stage.

When the music score was given to her, she would have no way to leave the stage unless she played the song.

Zhou Linna clenched her teeth and forced herself to open the music score. The dense array of notes made her hair stand up and her hands shook even more violently.

“Champion Linna, the notes are here, why haven’t you started?”

Seeing Zhou Linna so frightened that her face got pale, Ji Cheng became very pleased inside her heart.

Because of Zhou Linna, the other students didn’t even have the chance to participate in the contest.

After she won the first prize, the classroom was used as the background for her photo shoot and the school kept playing the song she had played, making their heads ache tremendously.

“Damn!”

“What are you yelling for?”

“I found what prize Mu Weiwei won when she was in primary school.” Ji Cheng passed her cell-phone around and said as she pointed at the picture. “The competition was Franz Liszt International Music Festival, one that was held in Austria in memory of Franz Liszt, the king of piano! Mu Weiwei won the first prize of the children’s group.”

Having heard those words, Luo Qianqian squinted at Zhu Xiaoqin and her fan group who were completely dumbfounded.

“Ha, she got the international prize when she was still in the fifth grade of primary school, and someone even thinks that she is better than anyone else just because she has won a small domestic prize?”

Ji Cheng saved the picture in which Mu Weiwei won the competition. “The winner is always the winner. She will never lose. I have made a decision – I will be the winner’s disciple.”

Chapter 16: The Top and the Bottom

As they were discussing Gu Weiwei’s Feux Follets No.5 performance vividly, Zhou Linna was sweating so badly whilst reading over the music notes. She was trying hard to remember the notes that she was starting to feel very dizzy.

The music teacher and the principal became so nervous that they started to sweat too. Zhou Linna had just won the championship and been reported as “The Genius of Piano” a minute ago before being beaten by Mu Weiwei in this small contest.

If the story went out, not only would she be the one being humiliated, but also the school would be humiliated too.

Flight of the Bumblebee was nothing compared to Feux Follets No.5.

She knew Mu Weiwei, and she would never have challenged such a strong rival who would end up beating her and humiliating her.

Seeing Zhou Linna stuck on the stage, the music teacher Ye Mei and the principal became so anxious when suddenly a phone call arrived.

Ye Mei received the call and said loudly, “Oh, is this the National Broadcasting Station? I am sorry, but Linna is stuck here. We will head there straightaway and arrive within an hour…”

After Ye Mei received the call, she said to the journalist in a hurry, “I am sorry, but Linna has an interview waiting for her and she is running late. What about… we call it a day here?”

With this reasonable excuse, Zhou Linna was certainly able to get herself out of the hole.

The journalist took a look at Zhou Linna and said with a smile, “The material for the video should be enough up to here. Since you still have other interviews to attend, we will leave you here.”

Mu Weiwei was indeed excellent in piano and she did beat her but Zhou Linna was the one Yingcheng High School tried to promote and Zhou Linna’s aunt, namely Zhou Meiqin, the Mrs President of Longsheng Enterprise had also told their agency about what they ought to do.

In addition, she had a cousin Li Xing’er, who was extremely popular in the entertainment industry right now.

She was no more than a journalist, and she didn’t need to offend Yingcheng High School and Mrs. President Zhou Meiqin of Longsheng Enterprise for the sake of Mu Weiwei.

Although Zhou Linna was not convinced, she knew that however much time she spent here, she would not be able to perform Feux Follets No.5. Ms. Ye was helping her out so she followed the words and said, “Mu Weiwei, I am needed for an interview at the TV Station and I have no time to compete with you. We will see each other next time.”

“Just an excuse for incapability!”

“She is the bottom and Mu Weiwei is the top. What makes her so cheeky that she can receive the interviews everywhere and claim herself as a genius pianist?”

….

Gu Weiwei was calm. Without throwing a look at Zhou Linna, she said, “Where are my things?”

Those things were worthless, but some of them were the things left behind by Mu Weiwei’s mother and grandfather, so she had to get them back.

“Oh, I had them delivered to the Li Family, you can go home to fetch them if you want to.” Having said this, Zhou Linna left with the hem of her dress in her hands.

Gu Weiwei clenched her teeth. Zhou Linna knew that she had left the Li Family and yet she had still delivered her things to the Li Family. Apparently, she was putting her into the midst of trouble.

Hehe…

She was going to see what more this woman had in store for her!

Chapter 17: Unreasonable

Gu Weiwei was just thinking about how to get her things from the Li Family when the two girls suddenly rushed out and stopped her halfway. One girl with a bun hairstyle cried out excitedly.

“Dad, finally.”

“….”

Gu Weiwei’s lips twitched – what did she mean by ‘dad’?

“Ever since you played Feux Follets No.5 and beat Zhou Linna, you have become my dad.”

The short haired Luo Qianqian glared at Ji Cheng who was calling Gu Weiwei by this title and said, “Don’t be so stupid, no one wants to adopt a grownup daughter like you.”

“What is it?”

Gu Weiwei asked, seeing that the two girls meant no harm.

The short haired Luo Qianqian stretched out her hands. “I am Luo Qianqian from Class one in Senior group three, let’s be friends.”

“And I am Ji Cheng.” Ji Cheng’s eyes were full of admiration.

As far as Gu Weiwei remembered, these two girls were in the same piano class as Zhou Linna.

Judging from what they had just said, it seemed that they came to her because she had beaten Zhou Linna.

Therefore, she stretched out her hands and took theirs. “What can I do for you?”

Ji Cheng not only refused to let go of her hands but also took hold of her hands and started to massage them involuntarily.

“Dad, could you please let me hold them for a bit longer. Maybe my piano skills can be improved and I can pass my examinations after I receive some of your aura.”

Luo Qianqian spoke straightforwardly. “We want to learn how to play piano with you.”

She was not only better than their music teacher, but also better than almost every music teacher in the music school. She was exactly the kind of teacher they needed.

Gu Weiwei thought for a moment. “Do you pay?”

She was using the money given by Grandpa Fu nowadays and if she planned to live independently from the Fu Family, then she had to make money of her own.

Luo Qianqian agreed instantly. “Of course, we will pay you the market price.”

“But…” Ji Cheng blinked, looking pitiful. She asked, “We are having the examination next month. Can we start the classes today? I am in desperate need of your rescue, Dad!”

Gu Weiwei’s lips twitched. “Can you give me another name?”

“Then I will call you Goddess!” Ji Cheng patted her own chest and said, “You can call me Cheng and you can call her Qianqian.”

“Let’s go over to my house. My parents are abroad and neither of them are at home.”

Having said this, Luo Qianqian turned around and started to lead the way.

Gu Weiwei followed the two girls to Luo Qianqian’s home. Luo Qianqian’s father was a composer, so her home was full of all kinds of musical instruments. That made it very easy for them to have the classes.

Ji Cheng played the song twice and her mistakes were pointed out. Then she threw herself down on the piano and said in a desperate tone, “After Zhou Linna won the championship, the Capital Music School wants none other than her. And the interviews all pour into her hands and some music companies want her to be a star. Why is it so difficult for me to even pass the level test.”

Luo Qianqian poured each of them one cup of fruit juice and came over to them.

“The Capital Music School and the music companies as well as the interviewers do those things only because they are trying to create a good image for Longsheng Enterprise. Her aunt is Mrs. President and her cousin is a popular star called Li Xing’er.”

Gu Weiwei sipped the juice without showing any expression. Mu Weiwei did not attend Yingcheng High School before, she was transferred here after the car accident.

Therefore, no one knew that she was the real lady of Longsheng Enterprise.

After Li Jiacheng and Zhou Meiqin got married, everyone knew that Li Xiangxiang was the lady of Longsheng Enterprise whilst Zhou Linna was the niece of Mrs. President, someone that should be well taken care of.

What was not known to the public was that Longsheng Enterprise was established by Mu Weiwei’s grandfather, namely Mu Longsheng, rather than Li Jiacheng or Zhou Meiqin.

Ji Cheng sat down cross-legged as she had the fruit juice in her hand and asked curiously,

“Goddess, what school are you going to apply for? The Capital Music School too?”

Gu Weiwei shook her head. “I am going to apply for the Film Academy.”

Mu Weiwei came to school today, because she wanted to get her certificates and identification cards so as to apply to the Film Academy.”

“The Film Academy?” Luo Qianqian just didn’t get it. She asked even further, “It will take just a few years for you to become the top pianist with your ability. Why are you considering the Film Academy?”

“True. Goddess, you are so gifted in music, it would be such an unreasonable waste if you give up music for film!” Ji Cheng sounded exasperated.

“I want to learn something fun.” Gu Weiwei smiled lightly.

Ling Yan was in a film invested by the Gu Family and became crowned as the top Queen of Movies when the movie won almost ten billion yuan in the global box office and received numerous prizes.

If she wanted to bring Ling Yan down, she must be in the same industry as she was. Only by entering the entertainment zone would she be able to reach her purpose within a short time.

Ling Yan… One day, she would stand on the peak and gradually erase this woman little by little and get back whatever belonged to her.

Chapter 18: Fairy on the Earth

Because of one car accident, Fu Shiqin had been stuck in a traffic jam for almost an hour on his way home from work.

Hearing Fu Hanzheng coughing constantly in the backseat, Fu Shiqin threw a look at his own brother who was still working when he was sick through the rear-mirror. “Bro, what about taking a nap, it may take a bit longer for us to arrive.”

Fu Hanzheng checked the time. “Make a turn at the crossing ahead. Let’s go to Jinxiu Compound.”

“Okay.”

Fu Shiqin drove a bit further before turning into another road.

Then they arrived at Jinxiu Compound which was close to the company.

When the real estate company affiliated to the Fu Family was building accommodation before, they spared one patch of land and built a row of apartments.

When the workload was a lot and they failed to make it to Landscape Villa, they would come and rest here.

Sometimes when Fu Shiyi was back, he would stay here overnight too.

Fu Shiqin drove into the compound and saw the light on upstairs.

“Seems that our third brother is here too…”

Fu Hanzheng closed the files and frowned with discomfort. “Do we still have medicine in the car?”

Fu Shiqin pulled the car over and started to search for the medicine as he nagged, “Even if we have medicine, you can’t drink it after you have drunk wine.”

“I told you to take a rest if you can. Now you have caught the flu and you are also suffering from a stomach ache. If appendicitis occurs, you will have to be sent to the operation table under the charge of He Chi.”

Because of the detailed affairs from the collaboration with the Wilson Enterprise, his workaholic brother had been working like a robot for two days without sleeping.

After the signing was done, he had a meeting before attending a cocktail party.

Now his flu had worsened and he started to have a stomach ache too.

“I didn’t find any. Let’s go upstairs and we can ask Third Brother to buy it.”

Fu Hanzheng coughed, got out of the car and walked towards the elevator.

Fu Shiqin grabbed the suitcase and laptop and followed up behind him in a hurry.

The moment they walked out of the elevator, the Fu Shiqin pressed in the door code and said angrily before entering the room.

“Third Brother, didn’t you say that you won’t be home for three more months?”

The moment the door was opened, what greeted his eyes was not his twin brother Fu Shiyi, but a girl who had just come out of the shower and who was drying her hair wearing pink pyjamas and slippers.

The girl looked extremely pretty. Her fresh-looking face was slightly flushed because of the shower and she looked rather cute.

Fu Shiqin just couldn’t help but feel appalled. This woman did not look like the female star who was currently in a scandal with Third Brother.

Gu Weiwei looked startled as she saw Fu Shiqin breaking into the apartment. And then she had a look at Fu Hanzheng who followed behind afterwards.

What were they doing here?

Fu Shiqin entered the apartment with a dry laugh. He felt very jealous inside his heart. “Third Brother didn’t even tell me that he has a girl over tonight.”

It must be so excellent to be in the entertainment industry where he could get so many pretty girlfriends.

And this one looked a bit familiar too.

Gu Weiwei. “…”

Was this man blind?

Fu Hanzheng threw a look at her, entered the room without any expressions on his face and went straight into the study.

Fu Shiqin kept looking for Fu Shiyi in the room and then decided to call him without continuing to find him.

“Third, where did you get this fairy-looking girl? Do you know that Mu Weiwei has been killing my eyes these days? She likes to wear see through clothes even if she has nothing to show for it and her fake eyelashes are as long as a fan…”

“What are you talking about, Second?” Fu Shiyi talked back angrily from the other side of the phone. “What fairy-looking girl? I have a nighttime scene to shoot later. I gotta go.”

Fu Shiqin looked at the cell-phone, feeling confused. He had a nighttime scene to shoot later?

Then what was this pretty girl doing here when Third Brother was not here?

At this time, Gu Weiwei raised her eyebrows as she threw an amused look at Fu Shiqin. “Second Master, you seem to owe me a title of dad?”

Chapter 19: Fairy on the Earth 2

With a loud sound, Fu Shiqin’s phone fell onto the ground. Then he became so frightened as if he had seen a ghost. “Mu Weiwei?!”

Mu Weiwei was an eye-killing monster! How could she look so pretty and lovely?!

Gu Weiwei approached him, picked up his phone and gave it to him. “You left in a hurry last time and I failed to hear you calling me dad. What about doing it now?”

Fu Shiqin pointed at the study exaggeratedly. “My brother… he needs me now…”

Having said the words, he took back his cell-phone and scurried into the study.

Gu Weiwei turned around to check her porridge in the kitchen. Fu Hanzheng threw her out from Landscape Villa before and now he was here too. So she could not stay here anymore either.

Fu Shiqin wormed his way into the study and looked completely startled. “Dad, did you recognize her?”

“That is Mu Weiwei! The monster-looking girl who used to live at our home before, the very one that kept badgering you.”

“I didn’t know she could be so pretty without makeup. What made her want to ruin her own looks before?”

….

Fu Hanzheng got fed up with his anxiousness and said, “Where is my medicine?”

Fu Shiqin was full of curiosity about what his brother was thinking. So he continued to ask, “Bro, aren’t you a bit surprised that the girl you threw out of our home turned out to be so pretty? Don’t you regret anything, at all?”

Fu Hanzheng looked as cold as usual. “Where is the medicine?”

Hearing that he was changing the tone, Fu Shiqin swallowed down his questions and went into the kitchen where Gu Weiwei was cooking and asked her with an unnatural tone, “Well, do you have any medicine… for the flu or stomach, something that can be taken after wine… My brother is sick,”

“No, all of them have been tossed away because of the expiration date.” Gu Weiwei sounded ruthless.

Fu Shiqin scratched his head. “Then pour a cup of water for my brother. I will go and get some medicine.”

Having said that, he left without waiting for her reply.

Gu Weiwei glanced in the direction of the study and opened the fridge, took out scallions, ginger and turnips unwillingly.

She diced scallions, sliced ginger and turnips and boiled them in water for twenty minutes before scooping out one bowl and carried it to the study. She knocked at the door.

Fu Hanzheng was just leaning against the chair when he heard the knock on the door.

“Come in.”

Gu Weiwei put the water onto the table. “Drink this so your throat can feel better.”

Fu Hanzheng opened his eyes at the sound of her voice and he was startled for two seconds when he met the girl’s crystal-clear eyes. Then he glanced at the freshly-boiled soup on the table.

“I have made porridge. If you want to eat it, you can come into the dining room,” Considering that this was his apartment, Gu Weiwei spoke to him courteously.

Then, she went into the kitchen and made two vegetable side dishes for dinner.

She had just put the food onto the table when the door of the study was opened, and Fu Hanzheng went in to take a seat by the dining table.

Gu Weiwei. “…”

She had been courteous, because she had thought that he would never eat the food she made. But the reality turned out to be the total opposite.

She went back to the kitchen and fetched another bowl of porridge for Fu Hanzheng. Then she sat down and explained, “Grandma Fu brought me here, since it is close to the school. I will… go and search for another accommodation tomorrow and move out as soon as possible.

After eating the warm porridge, Fu Hanzheng felt better in both body and mood. “I am not here often. You can live here.”

“Okay.”

The two of them finished the food in silence and they didn’t mention a single thing about what had happened the other night.

Having finished the porridge, Fu Hanzheng threw a profound look at Gu Weiwei and asked, “How did you get Mr. Ming to spare the painting?”

He had mentioned numerous conditions of exchange but none had moved Mr. Ming. Later on he had told them that she had what he had wanted as an exchange gift.

“My grandfather left one chess manual. Mr. Ming has the first volume and he has been seeking out the second volume for a long time.” Gu Weiwei confessed.

Ming Zongyuan was undoubtedly fascinated by paintings. But he was even more fascinated by chess.

“What about the cake?”

Fu Hanzhang looked even more focused. What cakes made the couple react so vividly.

“Checked it online. Ms.Wilson loves that kind of cake, so I made one and had it delivered there.” Gu Weiwei had her head lowered as she was stirring the porridge in her bowl. She felt that her hair standing on end under his sharp stares.

Fu Hanzheng nodded and had his eyes transfixed at Gu Weiwei, sounding slightly colder. “So, what do you want as an exchange?”

Chapter 20: Getting Indecent

Gu Weiwei looked calm. “Grandma Fu asked me to.”

What she meant was that she was helping Grandma Fu, not Fu Hanzheng.

Old Lady gave her a place to live and pocket money, and she felt bad taking the advantage all the time. So when asked if she could try to persuade Ming Zongyuan, she said yes.

Fu Hanzheng said, “Grandma asked you to do the mission, but you did help us out a great deal. As long as it is not something over the top, the Fu Family can satisfy you in everything.”

Gu Weiwei thought that since he wanted to offer something, then she should ask for something. After all, she was very poor at the moment.

Fu Shiqin had just returned with the medicine and heard their conversation, he scooped out a bowl of porridge and took a seat.

Seeing Gu Weiwei’s embarrassed look and her obvious desire of wanting to have something, Gu Weiwei said directly, “There is no need to ask, she wants you!”

Gu Weiwei threw a fierce glance at him – God damn it! That was not what she was thinking.

Without taking a look at her, Fu Shiqin glanced at Fu Hanzheng. “It is not the first time either, you are in the advantageous part being such an old man…”

Fu Hanzheng threw a calm look at Gu Weiwei as if trying to figure out if she was really going to put forward that proposal.

“Just give me money. Grandfather paid 50,000 to 60,000 yuan for that chess manual. You can pay me with that amount.”

Mu Weiwei did hope to get something out of this man. But she was Gu Weiwei deep inside.

She had no interest in him. She even had the intention of staying far away from him.

Fu Hanzheng nodded. “Xu Qian will deliver the money tomorrow.”

Gu Weiwei let out a sigh of relief. Seeing his bowl emptied again, she asked politely, “Do you want… one more bowl?”

“Okay.” Fu Hanzheng replied.

Gu Weiwei’s lips twitched. He was indeed making himself at home, wasn’t he?

She went to get another bowl of porridge for him. Fu Hanzheng finished the food and returned to the study.

Since she was not full, she went to boil the instant noodles which Fu Shiqin took a bowl of too. He snapped at her. “Are you dumb or not? Don’t you think that my brother is much more valuable than 50,000 yuan?”

Gu Weiwei boiled the noodles as she said slowly, “Didn’t you ask me to stay away from your brother before?”

“That was because you wore such horrible makeup! If I had known that you are so pretty, I would not have stopped you.” Fu Shiqin sized her up from head to toe. It was so skilled of her to put on such horrible makeup before.

Gu Weiwei. “…”

It was a world where appearances decided everything!

Fu Shiqin helped to carry the noodles into the dining room. He asked as he kept eating the noodles, “You had tried so hard to get my brother to sleep with you before. But you gave up on this opportunity this time?”

Gu Weiwei took a mouthful of soup. “It is just like something that may look very delicious when you don’t get to eat it, but after you really taste that thing, you may find that it is not that tasty after all.”

Fu Shiqin blinked. “So… my brother is not delicious?”

The two were just talking when Fu Hanzheng walked out of the study and the air of embarrassment dominated the room.

Gu Weiwei was startled and explained in a hurry, “I didn’t mean that, I didn’t mean that you are not tasty….”

Fu Hanzheng poured the water and drank the medicine in calmness as he threw a side look at her. “So I am tasty after all?”

Gu Weiwei. “…”

Damn it!

Chapter 21: For Your Body and Look

With noodles still crammed in his mouth, Fu Shiqin stared at Fu Hanzheng who had spoken such an astonishing sentence.

Oh my dear brother, you are getting somewhere!

After Fu Hanzheng finished saying the question, he returned to the study calmly.

He acted as if whatever he had said had not been said by him.

Gu Weiwei felt her forehead helplessly. This apartment was large and cozy but she was definitely not going to live here any longer.

Fu Shiqin sucked the noodles into his mouth and asked cunningly.

“So, is my brother delicious or not?”

“Get out of my sight!”

Gu Weiwei buried herself into the noodles, and put the empty bowl away after she had finished the food. Then she returned to the bedroom and didn’t come out any more.

After the noodles, Fu Shiqin took some of her snacks and entered the study.

He kept stuffing the snacks into his mouth as he started to gossip.

“Bro, let’s be honest with each other. You knew that Mu Weiwei is not hideous, didn’t you?”

Fu Hanzheng buried himself in his work, ignoring him.

Fu Shiqin took a bite from the biscuits and continued with his analysis.

“So, you who never touched women, slept with Mu Weiwei at her wishes, pretending as if you wanted to turn her down.”

After Fu Hanzheng heard the word ‘pretend’, he threw his eyes full of chill towards the man who was so busy talking.

“What did you just say?”

“I…”

Fu Shiqin picked up his cup and drank some water to go with the food in his mouth. “I mean… Mu Weiwei was pretending. She also wanted to sleep with you!”

Fu Hanzheng looked at him with a cold look, speechless.

Fu Shiqin continued on, he was worried that his brother would not buy his words.

“She was driven out of the house because she kept badgering you. Now she has changed the strategy. She starts to back off so that she can look good in front of you, so that she can reach her ultimate purpose – to sleep with you for your looks.”

Fu Hanzheng lowered his gaze and returned to his work. “If you will still keep on talking, you can get out of my sight!”

“I am on it!” Fu Shiqin picked up the snacks and rushed out of the study instantaneously.

Fu Hanzheng folded up the file he had just finished reading and that was when he noticed an exercise notebook for high school students placed on the corner of the table.

On the cover of the notebook there was a name neatly written – Mu Weiwei.

At the end of the name was a lovely smiling face drawn in a cartoony fashion.

He looked at the notebook thoughtfully for a moment and could not help but let out a small smile. Then he continued to go back to his work.

….

At seven in the morning, Gu Weiwei woke up because of an urge for a bathroom break. Drowsily, she got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, took off her pants and sat on the toilet.

After she finished her urge, she rolled her eyes and had just pulled up her pants when she noticed the silhouette of a man.

Fu Hanzheng wiped away his wet hair and saw the drowsy girl sitting on the toilet. He just couldn’t help but notice the thighs and the butt of this girl as well as her pure and snowy white skin.

Gu Weiwei blinked and groaned inside – is there anyway for her to die a bit faster?

Seeing that she was not leaving, Fu Hanzheng frowned slightly, “How much longer do you plan to stay?”

Gu Weiwei turned her head around to the mirror beside her but saw the reflection of this man in the mirror too. Frightened, she simply had nowhere else to turn to.

If she stayed the situation would get worse.

Therefore, she stood up, pulled up her pants and dashed off the bathroom.

She even didn’t have time to flush the toilet or the guts to pick up her lost slipper.

Fu Shiqin was just stretching himself in the living room when he saw her running out of the bathroom. He suddenly came to a realization when he thought of his brother in the shower.

Fu Shiqin looked sinister, “Ha, you sneaked a peek at my brother in the shower and you still claim that you don’t desire his body and looks?”

Chapter 22: Ling Yan’s Successful Operation

“Who takes showers so early in the morning anyways?” Gu Weiwei argued furiously.

“My brother always takes a shower before going out in the morning. You snuck into his shower, didn’t you?” Fu Shiqin smirked

“…” Gu Weiwei suddenly became speechless.

Mu Weiwei did sneak into Fu Hanzheng’s bathroom whilst he was showering, so even if she had not done it on purpose this time, it was hard for her to prove herself innocent.

The doorbell rang and Fu Shiqin answered it. It was Xu Qian who had delivered the clothes and the breakfast.

Fu Shiqin had his arms over Xu Qian’s shoulders as he pointed at Gu Weiwei.

“Xu, guess who this girl is?”

Xu Qian threw an are-you-an-idiot look at him and greeted Gu Weiwei with a half bowed back.

“It has been a long time, Miss. Mu.”

“Damn it! What made you recognize her when even I couldn’t?” Fu Shiqin was not convinced.

Without answering him, Xu Qian went to deliver the clothes to Fu Hanzheng.

And he also helped her to get the slipper back.

A while later, Fu Hanzheng came out of the room.

He was dressed in a hand-made blue business suit with a silvery grey tie which was worn well on him. The buttons of his shirt were luxurious and exquisite and he looked sexy yet well restrained.

He threw a look at Xu Qian. “Have you brought the things?”

Xu Qian took out a card from the pocket of the suit and gave it to her. “I have asked Mr. Ming, half of the manual is worth 300,000 yuan, so here is the money.”

Fu Hanzheng took the card and placed it in front of her.

“That’s how much the chess manual is worth right now. Take your payment.”

Gu Weiwei accepted the card and said sincerely, “Thank you, and… I didn’t mean what I just did, really!”

“Okay.” Fu Hanzheng looked expressionless.

Mu Weiwei had been too fascinated by Fu Hanzheng, but now she couldn’t just tell them that she was no longer Mu Weiwei.

Therefore, she had to answer for all of the responsibilities of the previous My Weiwei.

Xu Qian had noticed that she was quite embarrassed, so he stepped in to help her out.

“Miss. Mu, could you please help me with the tableware?”

Gu Weiwei turned around and walked into the kitchen to fetch the bowls and spoons. The moment she came out of the kitchen, she ran into a piece of news that was being broadcasted on the TV.

“The internationally famous Movie Queen has been away from the screen for years because of a heart disease. Fans had been praying for her constantly. However, a couple of days ago, the Movie Queen, Ling Yan, had a heart transplant surgery and it turns out that it was a success. Yesterday, she was discharged from the hospital and was gladly received by numerous fans.

Gu’s Enterprise hired hundreds of security men to keep order and Gu Siting, the President of Gu’s Enterprise, as well as Mrs Director of Gu’s Enterprise arrived at St. Paul Hospital to receive Ling Yan…”

“Gu Siting must be in a relationship with this Ling person…”

Fu Shiqin mumbled with clenched teeth as he carried on eating.

Gu Siting was on TV for just a few seconds, but he already presented himself as an elegant noble gentleman.

The eyes that had been placed upon her before were now upon Ling Yan who was seated in the wheelchair.

Her heart that was removed from her was now in Ling Yan’s body.

As she saw the scene on TV, she couldn’t help but shiver. The tableware in her hands fell onto the ground, scattering into pieces.

“Get the operation done, have it removed.”

It was this last word that exterminated her last hope of survival.

Chapter 23: Fu Hanzheng was Being too Concerned

The piercing sound drew Fu Hanzheng’s, and everyone else’s, attention.

Gu Weiwei hurriedly squatted down to tidy up the scattered pieces on the floor, trying hard to conceal her suspicious panicking and paleness.

However, what she had seen kept on repeating itself in her brain.

So much so that she did not even feel a touch of pain when a scattered piece ripped through the skin of her finger.

Fu Hanzheng approached her and grabbed ahold of her bleeding finger.

“Stop.”

Fu Shiqin grabbed some paper and found a bandage.

Xu Qian quickly tidied up the scattered porcelain on the floor.

Fu Hanzheng wiped off the traces of blood on her finger and wrapped up the wound with a bandage.

As he looked up, he saw the girl looking rather pale with tears rolling in her eyes, as if she were trying to tolerate an unbearable pain.

Fu Hanzheng frowned and threw a look at Xu Qian.

“Call He Chi.”

Fu Shiqin scratched his head weirdly. “Does it hurt that much when you cut your finger?”

She had not even uttered a sound when she tried to run away from home by climbing over the wall at the old house. What made her so delicate today?

Xu Qian dialed the private doctor of the Fu Family and then passed the phone to Fu Hanzheng after the call went through.

Fu Hanzheng. “Twenty minutes, come to Jinxiu Compound.”

He Chi on the other side of the phone complained drowsily.

“President. Fu, I have just gotten off work after doing four operations. Can you have some humanity and let me rest instead by visiting the emergency counter yourself?”

“It is urgent. You must be here.” Fu Hanzheng’s voice sounded cold.

He Chi took a deep breath. Then he was getting out of the bed and asked.

“What are the symptoms?”

“Outer wound, bleeding, looking very pale.”

“How did it happen? How much is the bleeding?”

Fu Hanzheng thought for a moment and said.

“By scattered porcelain, about… 3cc.”

The man who had gotten ready to leave on the other side of the phone got so pissed that he wanted to smash his phone.

“I have a seven-figure annual salary! Am I just someone who puts on a bandage?”

“You have only eighteen minutes left, or I will take back the funding for your new studies.”

Having said those words, Fu Hanzheng hung up the cell-phone directly.

Seventeen minutes later, a man wearing glasses with unkempt hair entered the room out of breath. Then he threw a glare at Fu Hanzheng.

“You better not get sick and end up being on my operation table one day.”

Or he would make him into a specimen.

Ignoring his threats, Fu Hanzheng pointed at Gu Weiwei who was sitting on the sofa in silence and looking pale

He Chi walked up, and revealed the bandage to check the wound, felt the pulse and made a diagnosis.

“The wound is fine, but she may have gotten frightened by something. She will be fine in a while.”

“Frightened by something?”

Fu Shiqin mumbled. She got frightened because she had scattered the tableware?

When he had gotten injured and been hospitalized before, his brother didn’t even stop working to visit him.

And now, when Mu Weiwei just lost some droplets of blood.

He not only got He Chi here, but also postponed his work hours, which he had never changed before.

He was being way too concerned, wasn’t he?

Gu Weiwei cane back to herself, stood up and said.

“I am fine. You can leave now.”

Having said those words, she returned to her own room and locked the door.

He Chi turned to Fu Hanzheng as he watched the back figure of the young girl.

“Your love-child?”

What a strange thing that there could be a girl in the world that made Fu Hanzheng so concerned.

Fu Hanzheng threw a side, cold look at him. “No.”

Fu Shiqin became so frightened by what He Chi said that the steamed bun got stuck in his throat. Then he explained after he swallowed down the bun with difficulty.

“Maybe she is a girlfriend-to-be.”

“Girlfriend?” He Chi grabbed a steamed bun from his hand and asked in astonishment.

“Isn’t he gay?”

Chapter 24: Zhou Linna’s Evil Plan

The air in the room became scarily cold.

“You are gay, everyone in your family is gay!” Fu Shiqin instantly started to defend his own brother.

He Chi threw a look at Gu Weiwei’s room and whispered to Fu Shiqin.

“Your brother is indeed a monster to have approached such a young child.”

Fu Hanzheng was just walking out of the room when he said one last thing.

“Fu’s Enterprise will take back the funding for your new studies tomorrow.”

Hearing that his money for clinical studies was taken back, He Chi instantly ran after him.

“President Fu, President Fu, please, I was just surprised! That girl is pure and lovely and you are a destined couple! You indeed have a great taste for beauty…”

Fu Shiqin, who was following behind his brother, was both speechless and amused when he watched He Chi trying to suck up to his brother without caring about his own image.

Actually, he also had the same doubts as He Chi did before his brother slept with Mu Weiwei.

After all, he was a man who was almost 30 years old and he had never dated or approached any woman. He even refused to get married… That was indeed too weird.

Fu Shiqin had already changed his opinions towards Mu Weiwei, after she helped to distinguish the forgery and managed to persuade Ming Zongyuan to give a hand in completing the collaboration with Wilson Group.

Since Mu Weiwei was not that scary-looking, he would no longer prevent her from running after his brother.

….

As the noise outside the room faded away, Gu Weiwei relieved herself by crying loudly sitting on the floor, with her arms wrapped around her.

She had been searching news about A Land during the past few days.

The Gu Family didn’t host a funeral for her and no one had paid condolences to her death.

What was more, no one outside the family knew that Gu Weiwei was already dead.

Even Gu Siting’s mother. whom she respected and loved deeply, was standing out there for Ling Yan instead.

Yes, Ling Yan had taken her heart, so she got to live on.

She thought that even if she returned to them and stood right in front of them, no one was going to believe that she was Gu Weiwei.

And she was no longer able to return to the home she used to depend on so deeply.

The man who used to regard her as the apple of his eye did not love her as deeply as she had imagined.

She cried for a while and wiped away the tears on her face.

Since God gave her another chance to live, he did not plan to make her a wretched woman who knew nothing but to shed tears and complain about life.

Soon, we are going to meet, Ling Yan.

She got herself changed and went to Luo Qianqian’s home to help her and Ji Chang with piano lessons.

On the way home in the afternoon, Zhou Linna called.

“Mu Weiwei, do you still want your crap?”

“Where is it?”

She had planned to get her things back from the Li Family recently, but that girl had now come to her first.

“I will send you the address. I will toss them away if you don’t arrive at six pm.”

Having said her words, Zhou Linna hung up the phone.

A moment later, a text came through.

It was neither the Li Family’s home nor the Zhou Family’s home.Instead, it was an address to a five-star hotel.

She took the taxi to the hotel and saw Zhou Linna sitting in the lounge waiting for her.

She was dressed in the latest dress of the season and had a Dior handbag with her, looking just like a daughter from a wealthy family.

“Where are my things?”

Zhou Linna stood up and walked to the elevator. “Upstairs in the room. Come and get them yourself.”

Gu Weiwei followed her upstairs and entered into a first-rate suit, where she saw Mu Weiwei’s luggage.

“We did have some clashes and feelings of unhappiness before. I am now returning your things to you today to make peace between us.” Zhou Linna said to her as she poured two glasses of champagne.

“Drink up the champagne and we will cancel our grievances once and for all.”

Gu Weiwei took the glass and drank all of it.

“Can I borrow the bathroom?”

Zhou Linna pointed in the direction of the bathroom and smiled a sinister smile as she watched her going into the bathroom.

Chapter 25: Zhou Linna’s Evil Plan 2

When Gu Weiwei came out of the bathroom again, she had already started to wobble. She staggered over to the sofa using her hands against the wall for balance, losing all the energy to get up.

“What did you do… to the champagne?”

“Something that can make you docile.” Having said that, Zhou Linna opened the door to another room in the suit.

“Auntie, all is ready.”

A middle aged, fit and wealthy lady dressed in a custom-made suit walked out of the room and watched Gu Weiwei who had collapsed onto the sofa from a commanding viewpoint.

Gu Weiwei recognized her. She was the very one that caused the death of Mu Weiwei’s mother after seducing her father.

Not long ago, Zhou Meiqin married Li Jiacheng and she was none other than Zhou Linna’s auntie.

“What… are you doing?”

Zhou Meiqin sat down and said earnestly.

“Don’t worry. We mean no harm. It is just that… we heard that you are homeless and have been suffering a great deal out on the streets, and you even have no school to go to…”

“I am homeless all because of you.” Gu Weiwei sneered.

Without the Mu Family’s funding years back, Zhou Meiqin might not even have been able to finish school at all.

Let alone going abroad for studies or becoming the director of Longsheng Enterprise

But she was not satisfied with any of these things. She had seduced Li Jiacheng and ganged up with him so as to keep control of the company.

After Mu Yao passed away, she and Li Jiacheng not only refused to feel guilty, but also got married and started to live together, occupying the Mu Family’s properties.

What was she doing here pretending to be someone so kind-hearted.

“Stop being so stupid. I just want you to have a better life, after all, President Wang of Tiansheng Media doesn’t accept everyone.”

Zhou Linna looked at her disdainfully. She had been tolerating her for a very long time after she had embarrassed her in school that time before.

Recently, her auntie helped her cousin to get in touch with this year’s blockbuster which was invested in by Tiansheng Media, and the director happened to be the multiple prize winning Yi An.

Her cousin had been quite popular, but she had always failed to get any chances to play in a movie.

If she was able to participate in the movie, her cousin would not only get numerous resources but also a highly-enhanced position in the entertainment industry. It would also be very easy for her to get the prize for Best Actress.

In addition, Tiansheng Media and Longsheng Enterprise had been going through a very important collaboration recently and President Wang was the key point in this case.

President Wang had eyes for her cousin, but her cousin was on a very promising road right now and she was definitely not going to please this dirty old man called Wang Weidong.

Therefore, they sent Mu Weiwei’s pictures to him and President Wang was very pleased. He wanted to meet this girl today.

That was why she helped auntie to get Mu Weiwei here.

Since she had drunk the wine with the drugs inside, she would be at President Wang’s mercy.

With Mu Weiwei as the present, her cousin was not only going to get important movie resources, but Longsheng Enterprise would also reach the important collaboration.

More importantly, Mu Weiwei, who was her barrier, would also be removed.

After all, her performance with the piano the other day would definitely make her an all-time winner if she ever attended the Capital Music School with her in the upcoming future.

Also, after she became President Wang’s toy, Master Lv was definitely not going to like someone who had been in someone else’s bed so many times, no matter how much he liked her now.

Therefore, giving Mu Weiwei to Wang Weidong was going to bring them nothing other than benefits. What was the point of not doing it anyways?

Zhou Meiqin checked the time and urged her Aunt after seeing that President Wang was almost here.

“Linna, you can go home first. You are done here.”

Zhou Linna nodded, grabbed the bag and was about to leave when she sneered at Gu Weiwei one last time.

“Mu Weiwei, just stay docile and be someone else’s toy from now on. After all, you do have a foxy looking face for it, don’t you?”
