Chapter 1190: I Discovered You’re Very Wicked Too!
Sheng Kang paused. He looked up at Fu Huai’an and merely saw a dark expression on the latter’s face. “If a soft tactic doesn’t work?”
Fu Huai’an’s deep eyes gazed towards Sheng Kang. “Tell him… in the territory of Haicheng, no one can touch someone that I’m shielding. If he wishes to do so, he needs to pay a price for it! Ask Jacob Bellucci to measure his own weight!”
By the toughness of this message, it was evident that Fu Huai’an was angry too.
You couldn’t blame Fu Huai’an, though, as it was Jacob Bellucci who was being too unfeeling!
Sheng Kang tried putting in a good word for Jacob Bellucci, but seeing the rage in Fu Huai’an’s eyes intensifying, he stopped saying anything and rushed to look for Jacob Bellucci.
In the end, Jacob Bellucci, who refused to believe the threats, agreed with a dark face to head to the Fu residence under Sheng Kang’s accompaniment.
Jacob Bellucci finally understood the saying, “a powerful dragon cannot crush a snake in its old haunts”. He also understood that in Haicheng… it was futile to report a robbery to the police, because the police would only say… that it was a family matter and should be settled within the family. They would simply urge one not to let things get too ugly!
Jacob Bellucci was so furious that his lips were quivering. He even burst out in English, saying that he had no family!
Yun Liuli stayed in Lin Nuan’s room and played with Yuan Yuan and Tuan Tuan.
Because there was no one around, Yun Liuli spoke freely.
“Sister Xiao Nuan, do you think we can get Jacob Bellucci to stay in the Fu residence tonight?” Yun Liuli turned sideways and asked Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan chuckled. “If Jacob Bellucci refuses to stay at the Fu residence, you can follow him to the hotel!”
Yun Liuli’s eyes lit up. “Mm, right! If he doesn’t stay… I’ll follow him to the hotel later!”
After teasing Yuan Yuan, who was spitting bubbles out of her mouth with a little bell in her hand, Yun Liuli asked uneasily, “Then, if Jacob Bellucci refuses to stay and have dinner?”
“Then return his camera after dinner!”
When Yun Liuli heard Lin Nuan’s reply, she chuckled. “Heh heh, Sister Xiao Nuan, I discovered you’re very wicked too!”
Lin Nuan merely smiled and said nothing.
At 7:30, Sheng Kang showed up at the Fu residence with an extremely dark-faced Jacob Bellucci.
Jacob Bellucci arrived at the perfect time, right at mealtime at the Fu residence. Upon seeing Jacob Bellucci, Lin Nuan extended an invitation with a smile. “Mr. Jacob Bellucci, do stay and have dinner with us!”
Jacob Bellucci’s lips were tightly pursed. He had originally not wanted to respond, but ultimately, he had no choice but to bow down since he was under someone else’s roof. He said, “No need. My camera!”
Yun Liuli, who was standing beside Lin Nuan, said, “I’ll give you your camera back after dinner…”
Without giving Jacob Bellucci a chance to refuse, Lin Nuan said, “Do stay and have dinner! Xiao Liuli has promised me… that she will return your camera to you after dinner!”
Despite Lin Nuan putting it this way, Jacob Bellucci’s expression still made it clear that he didn’t want to agree. Sheng Kang hurriedly whispered a reminder in Jacob Bellucci’s ear, “This is Haicheng, Mr. Jacob Bellucci! Moreover… Mr. Fu’s family was friends with Mr. Gu. Since you’re Mr. Gu’s younger brother, it’s only right that you have a meal with them!”
Jacob Bellucci nodded reluctantly.
At the dining room table, Fu Huai’an was sitting at the head of the table and was raising a toast to welcome Jacob Bellucci…
Sheng Kang also raised a cup. He lamented internally that big-shots indeed had the aura of a big-shot. Despite the unpleasant conversation they had before Jacob Bellucci came, Fu Huai’an still managed to happily raise a toast to welcome Jacob Bellucci now.
Pulling a long face, Jacob Bellucci raised his cup and took a sip. But he didn’t take a single bite throughout the entire dinner. It was unknown whether it was because of his unhappiness or that the food wasn’t to his liking.
After dinner, Jacob Bellucci impatiently asked Yun Liuli for his camera.
Frowning hard, Yun Liuli stared at the mountain of food in Jacob Bellucci’s bowl and said, “I’ll bring your camera to you after you finish the food!”
Sheng Kang saw the veins popping up subtly on Jacob Bellucci’s forehead before hearing Fu Huai’an say, “Stop fooling around. Go and get Jacob Bellucci’s camera!”
Yun Liuli reluctantly got to her feet…
“Mr. Jacob Bellucci, let’s wait in the living room…”
Jacob Bellucci nodded. He got up and followed Fu Huai’an to the living room.
A servant brought Jacob Bellucci the Taiping Houkui Tea that Gu Qingcheng liked, but Jacob Bellucci simply took a sip before setting down his teacup, not planning to touch it after that.
The meticulous Lin Nuan said with a smile, “Perhaps Mr. Jacob Bellucci isn’t used to drinking Taiping Houkui Tea. Bring this mister a cup of coffee!”
Jacob Bellucci thanked Lin Nuan, but his vision remained fixed at the foot of the stairs, looking like he would leave right after Yun Liuli brought him his camera!
Yun Liuli took her sweet time upstairs, and when she finally came down with the camera, she looked reluctant to return the camera to him.
Jacob Bellucci took his camera from her and looked towards Sheng Kang. “I’m leaving…”
Sheng Kang also got up. “Let me send Mr. Jacob Bellucci!”
Fu Huai’an gave a courteous nod.
The meal didn’t go pleasantly. After Jacob Bellucci left, Yun Liuli didn’t insist on tagging along. She had both hands in the pockets of her denim jeans as she watched the car carrying Jacob Bellucci leave, her lips curling up.
“You let Jacob Bellucci leave so easily. What are you up to?” Fu Huai’an said in his mature voice.
Yun Liuli smiled and took out the memory card and battery from her pocket…
Fu Huai’an was rendered speechless.
Lin Nuan couldn’t resist smiling.
“You need to know that this Jacob Bellucci isn’t Gu Qingcheng! He and Gu Qingcheng are two different people. He… also can’t compare to Old Gu!” Fu Huai’an said, then went upstairs.
Yun Liuli didn’t utter a sound, merely grasping the memory card and battery in her hands. After a momentary silence, she looked up at Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan nodded. “I’ll get someone to send you to Jacob Bellucci’s hotel…”
In order to make Gu Qingcheng’s identity as Jacob Bellucci appear real, they had to go to great lengths. The greater the lengths they went to, the easier it was to convince others of Jacob Bellucci’s identity.
As Fu Huai’an headed upstairs, his phone vibrated.
He took it out and glanced at it—it was an encrypted number.
He turned back and looked at Lin Nuan, who was watching Jacob Bellucci leave together with Yun Liuli, before putting the call through and heading to the study. “Hello…”
“Want me to give you a hand?”
Cen Mo’s somber voice could be heard over the phone.
A smile appeared in the depths of Fu Huai’an’s eyes. “You’ve already helped enough. How’s your wound recovering?”
He had told Lin Nuan that it was all an act and that Cen Mo wasn’t at all injured!
But, in actual fact, in order to make the act look convincing, Cen Mo was hard on himself. The injuries on his body… were half-real and half-fake, looking especially scary.
Fu Huai’an didn’t expect this of Cen Mo. Other than feeling gratitude, he was also very worried about his brother-in-law’s injuries.
