Chapter 66: How Did You Bewitch A-Lan So Much?
Fu Yunting’s current bad mood mainly stemmed from the Gu family’s Fifth Young Master, Gu Xingcheng.
He and Gu Xingcheng had started dating four years ago.
Because of his relationship with Gu Xinglan, Fu Yunting had known Gu Xingcheng since they were very young.
But at that time, he was ignorant and inexperienced.
It wasn’t until four years ago, when Fu Yunting was eighteen, that he finally confirmed his feelings.
Being an extrovert, he proactively launched an pursuit of Gu Xingcheng.
Gu Xingcheng was three years older than Fu Yunting, and he also really liked this lively, cheerful, and beautiful young master who had played with his younger brother since childhood.
However, he and Fu Yunting had two different personalities.
Gu Xingcheng was steady and his love was subtle; he wasn’t as uninhibited or passionate as Fu Yunting.
Over time, Fu Yunting developed a sense of insecurity.
Additionally, Gu Xingcheng was extremely good-looking; it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he was on par with Gu Xinglan.
With one-in-a-million looks and an innate noble elegance, this often made Fu Yunting feel uneasy.
Thus, Fu Yunting began to act out in all sorts of ways in front of Gu Xingcheng.
He arranged for small male models to act with him, deliberately provoking Gu Xingcheng to observe his reaction.
He even set traps for Gu Xingcheng, arranging people to seduce him to test his self-control.
Every single time, Gu Xingcheng saw through them.
The relationship between the two grew increasingly strained.
After back-and-forth like this, Gu Xingcheng could no longer stand it and proposed a breakup.
Fu Yunting was also in a fit of rage and immediately agreed.
Gu Xingcheng was in a bad mood and went abroad to further his studies.
Fu Yunting was even more devastated.
He swore that from then on, he would live a life of pleasure, be carefree and happy, and play through all the entertainment venues just to spite Gu Xingcheng.
But in the end, these were just words spoken in anger.
After calming down, although Fu Yunting feigned a carefree attitude on the surface—often carrying condoms and medicine while frequenting bars and staying at clubs—he had never actually crossed the line with anyone.
He knew in his heart that he was useless; he simply couldn’t let go of Gu Xingcheng.
So, hearing Gu Xinglan say that Gu Xingcheng had returned to the country that day, his heart was instantly churned into a tangled mess.
That was why he wanted to find Li Ye today to vent.
Coincidentally, his soul mentor Li Ye wasn’t there, but his nemesis Qin Wan had arrived.
Fu Yunting turned his head to the side and reached out to wipe his face.
Then he rubbed his nose.
Qin Wan looked at him, feeling a bit awkward.
Regardless of anything, he had made the person cry; he felt like he had done something bad.
“Uh, that… if you’re not willing to give a tip, then forget it. I don’t want it anymore.”
“Qin Wan, are you a money-grubber? All you care about is money!” Fu Yunting said, sniffing and muttering, “Even when you were escaping, you didn’t forget to take the gold chain with you!”
He remembered this incident and tried to expose Qin Wan’s old wound to regain some ground.
Qin Wan: “…”
His eyelids lowered.
These words were quite hurtful.
But he didn’t care.
His heart had always been strong enough.
He figured that if he busied himself with proving his innocence, he would fall into the other’s trap.
He immediately shifted the conversation: “That was a gold chain he gave me to begin with; why shouldn’t I take it with me?”
“You…”
Fu Yunting was momentarily unable to refute.
His beautiful face was slightly flushed with anger.
He huffed, as if refusing to admit defeat, and said again, “Qin Wan, I know you have a sharp tongue; this young master won’t argue with you.”
He pointed his chin toward the dishes on the table. “This Lion’s Head Meatball is too salty; make it again for me!”
Qin Wan knew he was deliberately making things difficult.
Without being anxious or annoyed, he nodded. “Fine. I’ll make a special Golden Broth Lion’s Head Meatball for Young Master Fu. I guarantee I’ll do it with ‘care’.”
He put extra weight on the word “care.”
As he spoke, a cunning cold light flashed through his exquisite fox eyes.
He stared at Fu Yunting.
Fu Yunting frowned and thought for a moment. “Eh, I don’t want it anymore, forget it!”
He realized that given Qin Wan’s sinister and ruthless streak, mixing a handful of sand or spitting in the meatball would be an easy task for him.
He would absolutely do it.
Qin Wan laughed. “Does Young Master Fu want it or not?”
Fu Yunting’s lip twitched in anger. “I don’t! I wouldn’t dare eat something you specially made for me; I’m afraid you’d poison me to death!”
Qin Wan laughed even more heartily. “Young Master Fu is quite self-aware.”
Looking at the beaming Qin Wan, Fu Yunting couldn’t help but feel a surge of grief.
“A violent little lunatic like you is doted on by A-Lan like a treasure. I, this young master… such a good person, yet I can’t get my lover’s true love!”
“There is no justice!” As he spoke, his eyes turned red again.
He picked up his glass and drained it in one go.
Hearing this, Qin Wan’s smile slowly faded.
The originally cheerful atmosphere quietly changed its flavor.
Fu Yunting said Gu Xinglan loved him?
And like a treasure?
What a meaningless statement.
He knew exactly how much he was worth and how much weight he carried with Gu Xinglan.
He was nothing more than a plaything to the man.
When he was happy playing with him, he kept him by his side.
When the novelty wore off, he would kick him away and give him his freedom.
What was all this talk about love?
Qin Wan shook his head to himself.
Fu Yunting cried out again, “You’re gloating and laughing at me, aren’t you?”
“Qin Wan, do you have even a shred of sympathy?”
“Last time you stabbed my neck and hit my face, and now you’re mocking me to my face! Did I dig up your ancestral grave or tear down your front gate? Why do you treat me like this?”
Looking at Young Master Fu, who was sobbing while cursing, his eyes and nose all red, Qin Wan felt he was a bit pitiful.
“Alright, stop crying.”
“Last time I was rough with you, it was for a reason. However, I still apologize to you.”
“Your neck—is it okay?” he asked.
Fu Yunting wiped the corner of his eye. “It’s fine. It just hurt for many days.”
Qin Wan shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t want the tip anymore. I’m leaving; take your time eating.”
With that, he turned to leave.
Fu Yunting called out to him, “Eh, you… don’t go!”
Qin Wan: “Is there something else?”
Fu Yunting poured himself another glass of wine and drained it.
“I… have a question for you.” His tongue was a bit tied, and the intoxication was rising.
Qin Wan looked at him. “Mhm, ask.”
Fu Yunting scratched his hair. “How did you… how did you bewitch A-Lan so much that he’s lost his mind over you?”
“Teach me, I… I promise I’ll learn seriously!”
Qin Wan: “…”
His elegant brows knitted together.
“There is no such thing,” he said. “You are President Gu’s good friend; you should know that to him, I am nothing.”
Fu Yunting stretched out a finger and pointed at Qin Wan. “You still won’t admit it… you… you won’t tell me your secret technique, you stingy ghost…”
He wouldn’t let it go. “Then tell me, when two people are together, how exactly… how exactly should they get along?”
Qin Wan pursed his lips. “I don’t know. But I think respect, understanding, and tolerance must be the most important things.”
Fu Yunting muttered, “Respect, understanding, tolerance…”
“Then when I acted like that before, was I being disrespectful to him…” His gaze slowly dimmed.
Qin Wan understood that Young Master Fu was trapped by love.
“Young Master Fu, you’re drunk. Don’t think too much, and don’t drink anymore.”
Fu Yunting waved a hand. “I, this young master… am not drunk! I have a… massive tolerance for alcohol…”
As he spoke, his head seemed to grow heavier and heavier.
It slowly lowered until he was lying on the table, motionless.
Qin Wan thought for a moment, pulled out his phone, and dialed Li Ye.
He told him that Fu Yunting was drunk and asleep in the room.
Then he turned to leave and returned to the back kitchen.
