QT: The Rescue Of The Miserable Bigshots-Chapter 230 - 8.17

"This, this!"

At that moment, Fu Yanchen’s face was filled with shock. He felt warmth spreading through his leg, radiating from where his palm rested. Instinctively, he pinched the flesh on his leg.

Hiss!

It hurt!

And Jiang Jiamian had only been living in the villa for three days!

In those three days, apart from cooking chicken soup for him and massaging him in the morning and afternoon, there had been no other miraculous treatments.

But his legs had regained sensation!

And it’s only been three days!

"So excited?"

Seeing Fu Yanchen’s shocked and delighted expression, Jiang Jiamian straightened his back and said proudly, "How about it, now you should believe me, right?"

"I believe!"

Overwhelmed, Fu Yanchen grasped the armrests of his wheelchair and wanted to try to stand up.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Jiang Jiamian quickly stepped forward, pressing down on his shoulders, "Why are you so anxious? You just regained sensation, it’s not like you can get up and walk right away. The treatment is working, but don’t get ahead of yourself and set it back."

Fu Yanchen calmed slightly. He raised a hand and clasped the one on his shoulder. His voice turned solemn, "In a few days, I will go back to the old house and tell the old man personally that he and his illegitimate son can forget about you. Your engagement to Fu Xiaoyuan doesn’t count anymore."

After all, it was just an engagement, not a marriage.

"No." Jiang Jiamian shook his head, "If you announce it like that, what happens to my dignity? Wouldn’t I look like someone fickle who seduced his fiance’s brother?"

Fu Yanchen frowned, "Let’s see who dares say that."

Everyone knew Fu Xiaoyuan was the one engaged yet still fooling around, provoking his unmarried partner again and again.

"Maybe no one will say it. But we can’t control people’s thoughts. That’s why we need the perfect timing, when I look like a pitiful, abandoned young master who had no choice but to find a better man."

Fu Yanchen snorted coldly, "And this isn’t the right time? Hasn’t Fu Xiaoyuan already crossed the line? Once you’re with me, I’ll make sure he goes down and never gets the chance to crawl back up."

Jiang Jiamian curled his lips, "Let’s take it slow."

He also wanted to wait for the famous scene of Mr. Fu’s birthday banquet, just like in the original plot. It would make everything fall into place more easily.

"By the way..." Jiang Jiamian casually wrapped his arms around Fu Yanchen’s neck and sat on his lap. Ignoring Fu Yanchen’s suddenly heavy breathing, he asked seriously, "My family’s about to collaborate with the Fu company. Do you know anything about it?"

Fu Yanchen tried to steady his racing heart and said patiently, "I know. Don’t worry, I won’t let Jiang’s family suffer."

Jiang Jiamian knew the original plot well. Fu Yanchen wasn’t actually as powerless as he appeared.

But now he wanted to know more about whether Fu Yanchen would confess to him.

Or would he just brush it off.

Fu Yanchen’s lips curved slightly. It was the first time Jiang Jiamian had seen him smile like this, mysterious and confident, not the cold expression he had worn the past few days.

"It’s no exaggeration to say that more than half of the current Fu family is under my control. So, Jiang Jiamian, giving up Fu Xiaoyuan and choosing me is definitely the smartest decision you will make in your life."

Jiang Jiamian couldn’t help but be surprised. He didn’t expect that Fu Yanchen would actually tell him the truth after only a few days of knowing each other.

In the original plot, even while Fu Yanchen was the heir, he had already gained control over nearly half the Fu family. So after being seemingly cast aside, he simply hid in the dark and lay in wait.

Jiang Jiamian truly felt that if Fu Xiaoyuan wasn’t the protagonist, and if Fu Yanchen hadn’t ended up disabled, then Fu Xiaoyuan wouldn’t have even made it halfway. Let alone have the last laugh.

Even at the end, it was the death of his butler that pushed Fu Yanchen into madness. It felt like the villain was too powerful and couldn’t be controlled, so the plot had to create a chance for the protagonist to win.

Jiang Jiamian was a little taken aback by how straightforward Fu Yanchen was when the other spoke again, "Also, regarding the Jiang and Fu family cooperation, I have another plan. I’ll tell you a secret when the time is right."

Jiang Jiamian rolled his eyes, "Are you just trying to keep me in suspense on purpose?"

If he wasn’t planning to tell him now, then why bring up the fact that there was a secret?

Might as well not say anything at all.

Fu Yanchen chuckled softly, wrapping his arms tightly around Jiang Jiamian’s waist, "Before that, I have a small request."

Jiang Jiamian tilted his head, "What request?"

Fu Yanchen’s gaze darkened, "Even though I can’t stand yet, I can feel everything now."

"So?" Jiang Jiamian raised an eyebrow.

Fu Yanchen’s breath hitched, "So, in this position... you should do something."

Jiang Jiamian: "..."

Heh.

Keep dreaming.

Fu Yanchen pulled him closer by the waist, "Whether the Jiang family can finally raise depends on how sincere you are right now."

Jiang Jiamian: "..."

Jiang Jiamian sank his waist down and ground into him maliciously, smirking, "You still dare to threaten me? Have you forgotten your legs, your ability to walk and run, are all in my hands? Let me put it this way, if I’m really moved by you and something goes wrong, you won’t be able to run or resist. With the door shut... it’s over for you!"

Fu Yanchen: "..."

Fu Yanchen’s face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot when he thought of that scene, and even the arm that was holding Jiang Jiamian’s waist went numb.

Jiang Jiamian, watching his frustration, couldn’t help but be in a good mood. Feeling generous, he leaned in and planted a kiss on Fu Yanchen’s lips.

There was something sly and almost wicked in his smile.

"But thanks for the reminder. I really should’ve taken advantage of you while you can’t move."

Fu Yanchen: "..."

Can he take back everything he just said?
