Chapter 35: Fu Yue Strongly Requests This Scene Be Censored
Three people, three gazes intertwining.
the atmospheric pressure in the entire space was so low it made it hard to breathe.
The general manager standing outside the door had no idea where to put his eyes at the moment and could only look at the tips of his shoes as he stepped back toward the elevator one step at a time.
Ji Hanmoās gaze was filled with a towering fire of jealousy, surging toward Fu Yue in an instant.
However, the expected storm did not break out.
Ji Hanmoās handsome face forcibly suppressed all expressions.
He withdrew his hand from the door and turned around, seemingly planning to leave.
It was over.
Warning bells rang loudly in Fu Yueās heart.
Right now, Ji Hanmo hadn’t confessed and wasn’t in a relationship with him, so theoretically, he had no standing to fly into a rage.
But the frustration of being “unjustified” was the most terrifying.
If this big boss got unhappy and indiscriminately destroyed the entire map, endangering the plot progression, then it would be all over.
Regardless of what this bizarre situation was right now.
He had to stop him immediately!
In a flash, a stroke of genius passed through Fu Yueās mind.
Seeing Ji Hanmo about to fully turn around, a look of determination flashed in Fu Yueās eyes.
He squeezed his eyes shut, and his body went limp like a piece of dough with its bones removed, falling toward the floor.
To make the performance more realistic, he limply threw his hands out to both sidesā
Only a soft shush was heard.
The bath towel around his waist, which provided his last sense of security, seemed to have been endowed with a free soul; it slid down gracefully and floated to the ground.
Fu Yue, with his eyes tightly shut, could clearly feel the air around him becoming thin.
Two gazes, which could almost burn through him, were fixed firmly on his body.
“F*ck!!!”
Fu Yue let out a desperate scream in his heart.
The plan succeededā¦ succeeded my ass! He had thought it was a private pool, so he wasn’t wearing swimming trunks at all!
“System, can you censor/pixelate me?” Fu Yue cried in his heart.
[Apologies, Hostā¦ we do not have that function.]
Ji Hanmoās body froze at the moment he turned around.
That patch of skin, so white it was dazzling, was impossible for anyone to ignore.
He turned and rushed into the room.
Quickly taking off his long overcoat, he wrapped it tightly around the body exposed to the air.
“Don’t move him!”
Pei Luomianās calm voice came over.
“He has a history of fever; lay him flat first and check his breathing.”
Pei Luomianās gaze had only stayed on Fu Yue for less than half a second just now, but at the moment Fu Yue “fainted,” he had seen everything.
A doctor’s professionalism and composure made it impossible for him to ignore any details.
Oh, wait, they couldn’t be called details.
When his fingers rested on Fu Yueās neck, the skin he touched was frighteningly hot.
Pei Luomian quickly got up to get the roomās medical kit and began a professional examination. Listening to the heartbeat, checking pupils, measuring temperatureāeverything was done in one go.
Only after Pei Luomian signaled it was okay did Ji Hanmo dare to carry Fu Yue to the bed and pull the quilt over him.
“His fever is recurring, and he might have been overly fatigued recently; itās nothing serious,” Pei Luomian concluded as he put away his stethoscope. “Just let him rest quietly for a bit.”
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
A subtle silence fell over the room.
Ji Hanmoās gaze was fixed on Fu Yueās face the entire time, but the anger around him had quietly dissipated.
Not long after, Fu Yueās eyelashes fluttered, and he slowly opened his eyes.
“Thisā¦ this isn’t my room.”
He “confusedly” looked around the room, then cast his gaze toward the two people by the bed.
“Fu Yue,” Pei Luomian sighed, “you came in through that doorā¦”
He pointed to the glass terrace doors leading to the pool, where a few wet footprints still remained on the floor.
“You must haveā¦ entered the wrong room.”
Afterward, the blunder of Fu Yue entering the wrong room due to unfamiliarity with the terrain was cleared up.
A soul-stirring “catching-an-affair” Shura Field scenario was lightly flipped over.
Actually, when Fu Yue faked his faint just now, he had also roughly guessed the situation.
[Host, your acting is truly superb; the ‘fainting and stripping’ performance was seamless. This exposure lasted 5.2 seconds, covering 2 audience members, among whom Ji Hanmoās gaze duration was 5ā¦]
The system came out to tease him.
“Shut up! System! That was an accident! An accident, do you understand? Mention it again and I’ll format you.”
[ā¦]
The system went silent.
Fu Yue sighed in his heart.
If there had been any other option, who would want to use such a clichƩd script and make such a big sacrifice.
Everything wasāseen by them.
But since the misunderstanding was resolved and Fu Yueās body was confirmed to be fine, it wasn’t appropriate to continue occupying Pei Luomianās bed.
Ji Hanmo used a blanket to wrap Fu Yue up and sent him back next doorāto his own West Suite.
Fu Yue was settled in bed, and Pei Luomian followed them over.
His gaze stayed on Ji Hanmo for a moment, his expression playful. “Chairman Ji, itās so late; aren’t you going back?”
Ji Hanmo tucked the corners of the quilt for Fu Yue. “The driver has already gone back, and the newly dispatched car is still on the way.”
Pei Luomian looked at Fu Yue meaningfully and slowly said, “In that case, my patient will be temporarily left in your care.”
He specifically emphasized the words “my patient.” After saying that, he turned to leave, softly closing the door behind him.
Only the two of them remained in the room.
While Ji Hanmo sat by the bed, Fu Yue reached out, wanting to get his phone.
Ji Hanmo was one step ahead of him, picking up the phone and handing it to him.
“Fu Yue, why didn’t you go home?”
This question broke the silence.
Fu Yue: “?”
HR had talked to him today, warning him to be mindful of his influence and telling him to keep his distance from the Chairman.
So, he didn’t return to Yushui Bay and checked into a hotel; isn’t this exactly what Ji Hanmo wanted?
He should be consideredāhaving excellently completed the task assigned by the leader.
As for Ji Hanmo coming to find Pei Luomian and getting angry when he saw him in the room, Fu Yue could completely understand.
No one wants to see the person they discarded find a “new home” too quicklyāit was a matter of a manās face.
But now asking him “why didn’t you go home,” what kind of act was this?
Fu Yue racked his brains, trying to find a reason that would satisfy both parties.
Ji Hanmo, however, took the initiative to speak. “Is it because HR talked to you?”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yue realized.
The boss indeed knew.
Since he already knew, why ask despite the obvious?
Fu Yue felt the difficulty of this situational dialogue was a bit over the limit; he couldn’t think of how to cooperate for a moment.
“Iām sorry.” Ji Hanmo was silent for a moment before saying those three words.
Fu Yue was a bit stunned by this reaction.
To have the commercial land king Ji Hanmo apologize, what right did he, Fu Yue, have?
Besides, this apology came out of nowhere.
Ji Hanmo glanced at Fu Yue, as if able to discern his thoughts at this moment.
“It was my oversight,” Ji Hanmo said slowly. “Because of your love letter today, quite a few rumors were sparked in the company. HR only held a routine talk according to company regulations.”
He paused, then added, “Whatever level an employee belongs to, they will talk to them in the name of that level. In reality, I wasn’t aware of the talk.”
Hearing this, Fu Yue suddenly understood.
He had only heard about himself being involved in the “Love Letter Incident” and becoming a “Sea King” in Pei Luomianās office.
When HR talked to him, he hadn’t known about the matter yet. So, he had linked that talk to the relationship between himself and Ji Hanmo.
Looking back now, that conversation also matched the “Love Letter Incident” perfectly.
Fu Yue composed himself and said, “Since Chairman Ji says you weren’t aware, why do you know now?”
Ji Hanmo looked at him with some appreciation, as if praising his rationality.
“Ji Linye told me you had no place to stay tonight.”
While Ji Hanmo spoke, he didn’t forget to reach out and use the back of his hand to check Fu Yueās forehead; it wasn’t as hot anymore.
He continued, “I don’t think Iāve ever kicked you out. So, I looked into the people you interacted with today.”
“Company HR talks are all recorded. I listened to that recording and can probably guess what happened.”
Ji Hanmoās honesty and concern for him made Fu Yueās feelings a bit complicated.
Clearing up the misunderstanding didn’t make Fu Yue feel enlightened; instead, it gave rise to a deeper sense of confusion.
Knowing that “Ji Hanmo didn’t want to kick him out,” Fu Yue should have felt unhappy.
However, at this moment, a sense of misplaced peace of mind surged in his heart.
Fu Yue lowered his gaze, hiding the chaotic thoughts in his eyes.
Ji Hanmo looked at his changing expression and softened his tone. “The driver will be here in a while; come home with me.”
Ji Hanmo deliberately made it sound casual, but Fu Yue didn’t think so.
No, he couldn’t.
That momentary, inexplicable sense of peace of mind just now made Fu Yue realize that something was wrong with him.
“Chairman Ji,” Fu Yue said tentatively, “I think Iām not quite suitable to live in Yushui Bay for the time being.”
Ji Hanmoās eyebrows rose. “Why?”
“The influence of the scandal hasn’t passed after all,” Fu Yue said. “The whole company is currently spreading rumors that Iām stepping on several boats at once. Unfortunately, you are one of them. In this kind of storm, itās not suitable for me to continue living in your home.”
Ji Hanmo looked at him quietly.
Seeing that Ji Hanmo didn’t agree, Fu Yue continued to persuade him:
“Chairman Ji, even if itās for the advancement of the South City projectāmaintaining an appropriate physical distance before the rumors die down is the optimal solution.”
These words were full of commercial considerations.
Ji Hanmoās eyes were deep.
He naturally heard the little scheme in Fu Yueās wordsāhe was using a high-sounding reason to take the opportunity to move out.
After a long while, Fu Yue almost thought he would refuse.
“Fine.” Ji Hanmo only said one word.
Subsequently, he walked to the window, turning his back to Fu Yue to look at the night view outside.
“Since youāve decided, you can stay outside temporarily.” His voice came over calmly. He paused, as if asking casually, “Will you stay here? In the Pei familyās hotel? It feels a bit simple/crude.”
Simple?
Fu Yue felt that staying in this hotel at this price was clearly a “steal.”
“Dean Pei helped me with the check-in and gave me an internal discount. Besides, the service here is quite good.”
For example, the medical services.
With Pei Luomianās insight and medical skill, he must have already discovered Fu Yue was faking his faint just now.
He didn’t point it out, and Fu Yue felt that Dr. Pei was a really good person.
If there was a disadvantage to the hotel, it was the design of the pool connecting the two suites; that was a bit of a trap.
“Alright then.” Ji Hanmo didn’t raise any objections.
He walked back to the bed and merely straightened the quilt for Fu Yue, his movements natural.
“Itās late; rest.”
ā
The next morning.
The first ray of winter sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains that weren’t fully closed, casting a white sliver of light on the large bed in the bedroom.
Fu Yue woke up in a state of silence.
He slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, his body temperature had returned to normal.
However, because he had gone to sleep so late last night, he didn’t really want to get up yet.
He moved, only to realize that he wasn’t the only one under the quilt.
