Chapter 122: Acting

Yu Sheng quickly took Nian Nian and Brother Jiang to evacuate.

When they got home, Yu Sheng told Yu Shanhe exactly about Brother Jiang's abnormality and Xu Nuannuan's matter.

After Yu Shanhe learned that Yu Qiu almost killed someone, he was so angry that his face turned ashen.

Without Yu Sheng even mentioning it, he directly imprisoned Yu Qiu at home.

To prevent him from running away, he specially bought a stainless - steel handcuff and cuffed Yu Qiu at home.

At the same time, Shen Weixun started to act. He spread the word and launched a precise attack on the Yu family's business.

In just a few days, the assets of the Yu family, which had just made a comeback, were immediately reduced by half.

The capital chain was completely broken. Rumors spread everywhere in the upper - class circle that the Yu family was about to go bankrupt. Many people who had been on bad terms with the Yu family before started to secretly try to take advantage of their misfortune.

Yu Shanhe knew their plan. On the surface, he pretended to be extremely busy running around for business, but in fact, he took his wife to a nearby city for a trip.

As for the younger generation at home, he left them to Shen Weixun to deal with.

Couldn't the youngest ever head of the Shen family be trusted?

His mind was even sharper than that of Yu Shanhe, a man in his forties.

At first, Xu Nuannuan really wanted to contact Yu Qiu. She kept asking others about which hospital Yu Qiu was in and his physical condition.

But no one gave her an answer. Instead, they criticized her for asking too frequently.

They satirized that she had joined the company in the first place just to get closer to Yu Qiu and climb up the social ladder by using her body.

These were all the gossips spread at Yu Shanhe's order.

Xu Nuannuan, who was always arrogant and self - righteous, couldn't tolerate others saying such things about her.

Sure enough, after a few times, she stopped asking and instead went to find Liu Chuchen's cousin.

But the result she got was that Liu Chuchen's cousin was under house arrest at home. All his power and money in the family were stripped away, and he even lost his personal freedom.

Since she couldn't find anyone on either side, Shen Weixun seized the opportunity and arranged for an actor to deliberately approach Xu Nuannuan.

Since they wanted Xu Nuannuan to lose all her support and look for a new target, they had to set a target for her first.

The uncontrollable factors of strangers were too many.

It was still more reassuring to arrange it themselves.

The target that Shen Weixun pushed towards Xu Nuannuan was Luo Wuyou.

Luo Wuyou, this playboy, was the most suitable person to approach Xu Nuannuan.

He was an only child and had no great ambition for career or family.

The thing he liked most in his life was beautiful women.

Moreover, he didn't even need the tattoo on Xu Nuannuan's body to arouse his desire in this aspect. He had already magnified this desire to the extreme.

He lived according to his own ideas, doing whatever he wanted.

He was clearly a scumbag without any disguise.

His scumbag behavior didn't seem very good in others' eyes, but precisely such a person had a more determined mind.

He was a person who had lived his true self. Even if he was influenced, it would only magnify his true self.

At most, he would be attracted to Xu Nuannuan.

Xu Nuannuan would become the one he loved most among the many women he had met.

But he wouldn't give up so many beautiful women for just one person.

Or, he might become even more promiscuous, but that wouldn't be much different from his current situation.

When Shen Weixun asked him for help, Luo Wuyou of course had no objection.

He owed a favor for the last incident.

Although he had already paid the money, money meant the least to people of their class.

A life - saving grace certainly couldn't be repaid with just a few million.

Moreover, this wasn't a troublesome thing. Wherever he went to pick up girls, it was still picking up girls.

It was just that he was going to pick up a somewhat ordinary - looking girl. No matter how he calculated, he wasn't the one at a loss.

After Xu Nuannuan went to find Liu Chuchen's cousin but got rebuffed and was driven out by the Liu family,

it started to pour outside.

Luo Wuyou drove a low - key yet luxurious car and slowly pulled over to the side of the road. Wearing a neat suit, after the driver opened the door with an umbrella, he got out of the car with an elegant and proper smile.

He walked straight up to Xu Nuannuan.

At this time, Xu Nuannuan was squatting on the ground, hugging her arms and covering her face. Her shoulders were shrugging as if she was crying.

Luo Wuyou bent down and patted her on the shoulder. Xu Nuannuan looked up, showing her slightly red eyes.

Under the hazy drizzle, Luo Wuyou's handsome face was covered with a layer of mist. In contrast to the gloomy weather, his smile looked so warm and gentle, hitting people's hearts directly.

"Miss, do you need any help?"

Xu Nuannuan bit her lower lip, shook her head slightly, and replied sullenly, "No, thank you."

"You'll catch a cold if you stay in the rain for too long. I'll give you this umbrella. I hope you'll feel better."

As a master at picking up girls, Luo Wuyou naturally knew that the state of being aloof yet alluring at the beginning was the most heart - hitting.

If he showed that he wanted to send her home as soon as they met, 80% of the time he would be regarded as a bad guy.

Such an idol - drama - like encounter at the beginning must be just a brief meeting to leave a deeper impression in people's hearts.

This was to pave the way for the next chance encounter.

Luo Wuyou asked the driver to give the umbrella to Xu Nuannuan. He got back into the car in the rain and drove away without hesitation.

Xu Nuannuan watched the direction in which he left. Her eyes became more and more gentle. It wasn't until the car was completely out of sight that she shifted her gaze to the handle of the umbrella.

She gently rubbed the black umbrella handle with her thumb, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes.

Shen Weixun and Liu Chuchen were observing with binoculars not far away. Seeing her like this, they knew that the fish had taken the bait.

Another week passed. After Shen Weixun notified Luo Wuyou that it was time for his second appearance, he decisively moved the monitor to Nian Nian's house. He let Yu Qiu and Liu Chuchen's cousin, who was also tied up, watch the upcoming show.

The monitor screen showed the secretary's office of the Yu family's company.

The other secretaries who had received the notice deliberately raised their voices. As soon as Xu Nuannuan stepped into the office, they started to be sarcastic.

"Hey, some people are really pitiful. They were just one step away from success, but unexpectedly, the target had an accident suddenly. Now he's lying in the hospital, and no one knows whether he's alive or dead. All their previous efforts have been in vain."

"Exactly. In my opinion, us workers should just focus on our work when we're at work. If we always think about taking shortcuts, we'll easily end up with nothing."

"Tsk tsk tsk, that's not how you should say it. Working for others is not as comfortable as being the boss's wife. If Young Master Yu hadn't had an accident, it wouldn't be our turn to talk now. I just regret that I'm a man. Otherwise, I'd also like to take a chance. What if I succeed? Am I right, Xu Nuannuan?"

There were only four people in the office.

One secretary and one assistant of Yu Shanhe, and two secretaries of Yu Qiu, including Xu Nuannuan, his assistant.

The other three were insinuating, and their barbs were directly aimed at Xu Nuannuan.

Especially the last one. It was almost like pointing at Xu Nuannuan's nose and calling her shameless.
