Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband-Chapter 245 - 219: Proceed with Caution
Chapter 245: Chapter 219: Proceed with Caution
Ji Sang blinked, her reaction to Su Ge was somewhat curious.
In the past, in this kind of situation, Sister definitely wouldn’t act like this, but rather think back and try to find a solution.
So, was she really affected?
Ji Sang gently patted her hand
"Worst comes to worst, we can switch to another private room later."
Moreover, once Yan Jin arrives, they won’t stay in this private room for too long.
After all, one has to be mindful of Yan Jin’s identity.
"No wonder I felt you have changed again today, turns out it’s for this reason. Tsk, my sister can take quite a beating even without makeup."
Usually, as soon as she leaves the house, Su Ge would definitely spend an hour carefully doing her makeup.
It had also been a long time since she had seen Sister without makeup.
Su Ge arrogantly lifted her chin
"Of course."
Her mood finally improved.
On the other hand, Fu Yisi followed Han City to the top floor lounge, and as soon as the door closed, Han City cut straight to the point.
"Have you been up to something lately?"
Fu Yisi leaned casually on the sofa, his eyes and brows faintly moved
"What do you mean?"
Han City hummed
"I heard from our old man that a friend in Los Angeles recently took on a surgery, a gun... wound, and it was reported under your name."
Although Han City had no intention of taking over the Han Family’s medical industry, he wasn’t completely uninformed. Initially, when Fu Yisi said he was looking for a top surgeon in Los Angeles, Han City didn’t hesitate to ask his old man.
This guy was really strange; even though he knew plenty of excellent people in the medical field, he inexplicably wanted to make a detour through him.
"I have felt for a while that you have been covertly up to something, and since you are a man of restraint, brother, I didn’t inquire. But this time it involves a gun... wound."
Han City looked solemn. Although feuds between big families are inevitable, it’s rare for guns to be involved. The Fu Family is involved in military, political, and commercial sectors, and holds a no insignificant status. If it got tangled up with something it shouldn’t, the trouble would be significant.
"Fourth, what on earth are you doing?"
Han City looked at the man who, from the moment he came in, remained calmly composed after hearing all he said, and felt somewhat headachy.
Is his heart racing inside, while he himself doesn’t show any reaction?
Fu Yisi remained silent for a moment, then said only a few words to Han City
"It’s one of my friend’s men. I’ve done him a favor, so I had him help me with some things."
"What things?"
Han City frowned.
What kind of things could possibly be related to guns?
"It’s about my Aunt’s issues, but the gunshot wound is unrelated, it’s their own task."
Han City breathed a sigh of relief
"Then that’s fine."
No sooner had he finished speaking, Han City sensed something amiss, tilted his head, and extended his hand
"Wait, wait, wait, did you just mention an ’aunt’?"
He asked hesitantly
"Is it... Aunt Fu Zhixing?"
Han City inquired cautiously
After all, following that year, these three words have become a taboo for Fu Yisi.
Besides, more than a decade has passed, so how could there suddenly be news?
"Yeah."
Fu Yisi put his hands in his pockets, his head lowered, his eyes slightly dimmed.
Han City scratched his head
"Did you find her, or..."
Han City did not continue.
Sixteen years, a living person suddenly vanished without a trace. Even the vast Fu Family couldn’t find her.
Except for Aunt Fu Zhixing choosing to disappear or... death, he couldn’t think of any other reason.
Fu Yisi straightened up, walked to the window, and looked down at the scenery outside.
"I’ve found the specific location where she disappeared that year and have a general understanding of the matters and people related to Aunt’s disappearance."
Han City immediately stepped forward
"Who?"
"Yi Family."
Han City looked a bit stern
"Are you sure?"
"Almost certainly."
Han City’s brows twitched slightly, that meant confirmation.
Yi Family....
Han City slightly narrowed his eyes.
If Aunt Fu Zhixing could be connected to the Yi Family from back in the day, it wouldn’t be impossible. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Over a decade ago, although they were all just kids back then, Han City knew that Aunt Fu Zhixing meant something different to Fu Yisi.
This kind of difference was even more special than that between Uncle and Aunt Fu.
"Be cautious in your dealings."
After pondering for a moment, Han City only had these four words to say.
The Yi Family might not be as powerful as the Fu Family, but they don’t come from a clean background, and they have no bottom line when it comes to their methods.
It’s best to be cautious in your dealings.

Ling Yuxuan came with Yan Jin. He’s usually laughing and joking around, but today, when he’s come to celebrate his brother’s birthday, he seems somewhat distracted.
Su Ge gently nudged Ji Sang’s hand, tilting her chin up.
"What’s up with the little devil today?"
Ji Sang shook her head.
"I’m not sure."
Su Ge picked up a glass of juice.
"Come on, let’s go and probe."
Su Ge had dined with Ling Yuxuan before and played with him a few times; they really were like siblings.
The moment she approached, Ling Yuxuan obediently shifted to make space for her.
"Sister."
Su Ge leaned over to pour Ling Yuxuan a glass of wine.
"Tell me, what’s going on? It’s your second brother’s birthday today, why the long face? Didn’t feel like coming?"
Ling Yuxuan pouted,
"No, that’s not it."
Su Ge raised her eyebrow slightly.
"Then tell your sister, what’s got Mr. Ling so down?"
Ling Yuxuan scratched his head.
"Just... I think I’ve fallen for a woman."
Upon hearing this, Su Ge turned her head and made eye contact with Ji Sang.
Ji Sang had a rough guess in her mind and was all ears to the conversation between the two.
"Oh? What kind of girl captured the heart of Mr. Ling?"
A 23-year-old who was still a complete novice in love, a straight-laced little devil, had actually been conquered by someone - and that day arrived so swiftly.
Ling Yuxuan huffed,
"Just a dumb woman, a crazy woman."
She constantly followed him around for no reason, would get rejected and insulted by him every day, yet kept coming back for more.
Always smiling foolishly.
He had never seen someone who loved to smile so much.
Even when unhappy, she would smile; even when wronged, she would smile.
If that’s not a dumb woman, a crazy woman, what is it?
Su Ge: ...
"So tell me, how is she dumb? How is she crazy? And how did you come to like her?"
Ling Yuxuan opened his mouth but didn’t know quite how to explain it.
"I don’t know how to say it."
Su Ge: ...
"Don’t beat around the bush, you’ve got someone you like, what’s there to worry about?"
Ling Yuxuan: ...
"This is the first time I’ve liked someone, right?"
Moreover, before he clearly didn’t like her.
God knows why, but after being pestered by that young lady again and again, he actually started to take a liking to her.
Really strange if you ask me.
Su Ge: ...
"So are you not planning to tell me?"
Ling Yuxuan pursed his lips and stayed silent.
Meanwhile, Ji Sang tugged at Su Ge’s sleeve.
"If he doesn’t want to talk about it, let’s not force him. I think I know who that girl is."
"You know?"
Su Ge’s eyes widened as she looked at Ji Sang.
"Who is it?"
Ji Sang pursed her lips, hesitating about whether to say it or not when Ling Yuxuan hurriedly interjected,
"Don’t you dare tell."
