President, the deceased lady has three more children

Chapter 455 They didn't like it then, but now they're scrambling to have it.

Madam Fu arrived unexpectedly, so even Jiang Bai didn't receive any news and only met her in the elevator.

"Madam, what brings you here?"

Jiang Bai asked with some surprise, as he was holding several documents that he was going to give to Fu Yunchuan to handle.

"I just finished eating out. I came over when I had some time. If you don't have anything urgent to do, come to Fu Yunchuan's office with me. I have some questions for you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Bai was initially puzzled, but then nodded slightly in agreement.

He doesn't have anything urgent to deal with right now, but Madam Fu's words are a bit puzzling to him.

Could something have happened? Otherwise, why would they say they need to ask him and the CEO some things?

In general, something must have happened in such a situation.

Since it was an elevator, he couldn't ask too many questions. But when his gaze swept over the insulated box that Madam Fu was carrying, he realized he was overthinking things.

Perhaps the lady just came to bring the president some food.

When they arrived at Fu Yunchuan's office, Fu Yunchuan was somewhat surprised that Madam Fu would come.

He looked at Jiang Bai beside him, who put down the documents and gently shook his head, indicating that he really didn't know what was going on.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Fu Yunchuan greeted them and continued looking at the documents Jiang Bai had brought over. After confirming that everything was in order, he signed his name on them.

"Can't I come?" Madam Fu asked coldly, clearly in a bad mood, or even angry.

Fu Yunchuan paused in his work of flipping through the documents, then lowered his head and replied, "No."

Jiang Bai originally intended to leave, leaving the space for the two of them, but then he remembered that Madam Fu had asked him to come in with her in the elevator, so he could only stand aside and wait.

Seeing Fu Yunchuan so engrossed in his work, Madam Fu didn't know whether to praise his dedication or be angry at his nonchalant attitude.

"I just finished lunch with Xingxing and came over," Madam Fu said coldly.

Fu Yunchuan paused as he signed, the pen tip drawing a long line.

He put down his pen and documents and said to Jiang Bai, "Prepare a new document."

Jiang Bai: "Yes, President."

Fu Yunchuan got up and sat down next to Madam Fu. His gaze fell on the insulated food container on the table, and he picked it up to open it.

Fu's mother placed her hand directly on it and glared at Fu Yunchuan with displeasure.

"What are you doing? This wasn't brought for you."

"Why did you bring this here if it wasn't for me?" Fu Yunchuan didn't believe what his mother said, thinking she was just being stubborn but soft-hearted.

"Hmph! These are pumpkin pancakes that Xingxing made for me and your grandma. I was worried about leaving them in the car, so I brought them up. Don't flatter yourself. I'm not that kind as to pack food for you."

Fu Yunchuan originally thought it was packed for her, but now that he heard it was made by Nanxing herself, he wanted to try it even more.

With a slight effort, he took the insulated box, opened it, and saw the golden pumpkin cakes neatly laid out inside.

Mrs. Fu snorted again, but did not try to snatch the insulated box back.

Fu Yunchuan has indeed lost a lot of weight during this period, and she also knows that Fu Yunchuan often doesn't eat on time and occasionally just eats something to maintain his vital signs.

"You can have two pieces, but don't finish them. Your grandma and I haven't eaten yet."

Fu Yunchuan didn't answer her; instead, he picked up a pumpkin cake and started tasting it.

The perfect balance of sweetness, combined with the natural fragrance of pumpkin, and the chewy texture made Fu Yunchuan love it.

However, his liking for pumpkin pancakes is limited to this; normally, he wouldn't even look at such things.

Even if I can't see Nanxing, being able to eat food made by Nanxing herself is a kind of comfort.

Looking at Fu Yunchuan's disappointing state, Madam Fu didn't know whether to feel sorry for him or angry.

She glanced at Jiang Bai standing to the side and softened her tone.

"Xiao Bai, come and sit down, you should try some too."

Jiang Bai sat down, but didn't reach out to take it.

"Madam, you and the president eat. I'm not hungry right now. This was made for you and the old lady by the young mistress. You should take it back to the old lady."

"Why call her 'Young Madam'? She's no longer the Young Madam of the Fu family. You can call her by her name or 'Miss' from now on. Don't keep calling her 'Young Madam' to avoid causing her trouble and misunderstandings."

Madam Fu said something to Jiang Bai with dissatisfaction, and her words caused a change in the expressions of both Jiang Bai and Fu Yunchuan.

Jiang Bai glanced at Fu Yunchuan across from him, but didn't dare to say anything, only managing a smile.

Fu Yunchuan only paused his chewing for a moment, then continued eating as if nothing had happened.

When he was eating his second piece, Madam Fu snatched the thermos back from his hands.

"Two pieces are about enough."

Fu Yunchuan frowned, said nothing, and did not try to grab the insulated box again. He simply finished the remaining pumpkin cakes slowly, and then got up and leisurely washed his hands.

During this process, Madam Fu gave Jiang Bai a piece to eat, and Jiang Bai couldn't refuse, so he tried it.

"I ate this pumpkin pancake a few years ago, and it still tastes the same now," he remarked.

Madam Fu looked at him suspiciously, "You ate this before?"

"Yes, didn't you send it to the president before, saying that it was made by the young lady herself? The president didn't like it at the time, but I didn't want to waste it, so I ate it."

Jiang Bai's explanation, tinged with a hint of reminiscence, was met with a cold snort from Madam Fu.

"That's what Fu Yunchuan deserves. He looked down on it back then, but now he's scrambling to eat it. Isn't that what he deserves? Isn't that retribution?"

Hearing Madam Fu's complaints and sarcasm about Fu Yunchuan, Jiang Bai's face stiffened. He could only silently put the last bite of pumpkin pancake in his mouth, wiping his hands with a wet wipe on the table, and dared not answer at all.

Fu Yunchuan happened to overhear Madam Fu's complaints. He had no rebuttal, or rather, dared not refute them. He could only admit that what Madam Fu said was not without reason.

If he had known this day would come, he would never have treated Nanxing that way back then. Now, he is the one who deeply regrets it.

Sitting down again next to Madam Fu, Fu Yunchuan asked the question he had wanted to ask even before eating the pumpkin cakes.

"Did you go out with Nanxing alone today? Did Grandma go? What about the children? Did they go with you?"

"You still care about these things? I thought all your attention was on that Lu Mingzhu." Madam Fu continued to mock and ridicule Fu Yunchuan.

Fu Yunchuan didn't refute her, but looked at her with a very determined gaze.

Madam Fu snorted coldly. Others might fear Fu Yunchuan's gaze and aura, but she was not.

"Don't look at me like that. I need to talk to you about this properly. If you really can't let go of Lu Mingzhu, then marry her and make sure she doesn't show up in front of me anymore. She's getting on my nerves."

Fu Yunchuan frowned. "What do you mean? Did you run into her again today?"

"It's not just her I ran into; her so-called two friends also came up to greet me and Xingxing whenever they saw us. I've told her so many times that I don't want to see her, why doesn't she ever learn?"

"She said she had arranged to eat here with her friends a long time ago. Who knows if she was deliberately waiting for us there to make things difficult for me and Nanxing?"

Fu Yunchuan paused for a moment before saying, "She was just greeting you. You can just respond to her casually next time. Besides, she has no reason to make things difficult for you, because she doesn't even know that Bugui is Nanxing. She has no reason to do this."

Madam Fu snorted again, clearly dissatisfied with Fu Yunchuan's answer, especially his attitude of defending Lu Mingzhu, which displeased her.

She knew that Fu Yunchuan had some truth to what he said, but she couldn't accept his attitude of protecting Lu Mingzhu, especially since Lu Mingzhu was undeniably wicked.

"Anyway, I've told you about this. How you keep her in check is your own business, but let me make this clear: I will absolutely not give her a friendly look."

"Mom," Fu Yunchuan interrupted Madam Fu, "I'm asking why you went out with Nanxing today? Were there any other people with you when you went out? Or did you say anything to them?"

He wasn't really interested in what Lu Mingzhu said; he just wanted to know what Nan Xing had said.

Madam Fu's face, which had initially been somewhat angry, darkened instantly after hearing Fu Yunchuan's words, recalling what Nanxing had told her in the private room. She even looked rather frightening.

"I have some questions for both of you, and you'd better answer me honestly."

She looked directly at the two of them. The reason she kept Jiang Bai behind was because she knew about the relationship between Jiang Bai and Fu Yunchuan. If Fu Yunchuan was involved in what happened back then, Jiang Bai would not have been unaware of it, let alone escape responsibility.

If that's the case, she won't get any information from Fu Yunchuan, but she can glean something from Jiang Bai.

Fu Yunchuan frowned, while Jiang Bai could only nod. Both of them felt that Madam Fu's question this time was not simple.

When facing Nanxing, and even on the way here, Madam Fu firmly believed that Fu Yunchuan would not do such a thing, but when the words came to her lips, she hesitated and did not even dare to ask.

If this matter is truly related to Fu Yunchuan, then she will never be able to face Nanxing, or her two children, for the rest of her life.

Madam Fu's hesitation was too obvious and too strange. Fu Yunchuan frowned, thinking that something had happened to Nanxing.

"Has something happened to Nanxing?" Even though his expression didn't change much, Madam Fu could still sense the anxiety in his tone.

Madam Fu looked at him, her anxious emotions calming down. No matter what, she had to figure this out.

"It was just Xingxing and me eating today. I knew she almost had a car accident yesterday and I was worried about her, so I asked her to meet up for a meal."

"You were also at the scene of yesterday's car accident. Do you know anything about it? Or have you found anything? Was it really an accident? Or was it intentional?"

Fu Yunchuan gave Jiang Bai a look, and Jiang Bai immediately explained to Madam Fu what they had found out, and the culprit they finally knew was that Wang Shi.

The Wang family also declared bankruptcy late last night, and the boss has already been arrested. The speed was unprecedented.

A small company like this simply cannot withstand the attacks of Fu Yunchuan and Yun Shen.

Mrs. Fu: "Is that really it?"

"Yes, Madam. We were nearby at the time and rushed over after receiving the news. The young mistress almost had an accident. It was only because the president was driving a different car that the young mistress was spared a potential car accident."

Jiang Bai explained to Madam Fu again in detail. He suddenly realized that Madam Fu's questions seemed to be because she suspected that the president had done something underhanded.

He glanced at the president and found that the president was expressionless and his emotions had not changed at all. It seemed that he was not affected by Madam Fu's words.

That's true. If the madam really suspected the president, she wouldn't have come all this way to ask, let alone waited so long before finally asking.

Fu Yunchuan clearly understood this as well, so he didn't say anything more, but waited for Madam Fu to say what she was going to say next. He knew that the most important thing was yet to be said.

Madam Fu glanced at the two of them again and didn't ask about the matter for the time being, which was understandable, since she had done some research and it was indeed that Wang Shi who did it.

"Yesterday's car accident reminded me of the car accident in Nanxing six years ago. What do you think?"

Madam Fu's question was something neither Fu Yunchuan nor Jiang Bai had expected.

"Mom, just say what's on your mind. There's no need to keep testing me." Fu Yunchuan frowned. "Why did you bring up what happened back then? Did Nanxing say something to you?"

He even sat up straight and looked at Madam Fu.

"Do you want her to speak or not?" Madam Fu couldn't figure out what Fu Yunchuan meant, so she could only ask him in return.

This sentence clearly indicates that Nanxing and Madam Fu had said something, and Fu Yunchuan felt a bad premonition.

"Is Nanxing saying... that I was the one who did what happened back then?" he asked with a hint of bitterness.

Madam Fu nodded coldly. "That's right. She said the driver told her that himself. Fu Yunchuan, tell me, what exactly happened back then?"

She believed in Fu Yunchuan, but she still needed to get the truth and answers from him.

“It wasn’t me, but I don’t have any proof right now. The driver told Nanxing himself, unless he comes back to life.”

Although I had already guessed the answer, hearing it again with my own ears still hurt a little.

So no matter how many times he had spoken and explained, Nanxing hadn't listened, or rather, she didn't believe him at all. Otherwise, she wouldn't have mentioned this to her mother.

Madam Fu just looked at Fu Yunchuan quietly without saying a word. Jiang Bai's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately began to explain on Fu Yunchuan's behalf.

“Madam, this is absolutely a misunderstanding. Don’t you know what kind of person the president is? Even if he wanted to divorce the young madam back then, he would never have done something so ruthless. He wouldn’t have done such a thing even for your and the old lady’s sake.”

Madam Fu closed her eyes tightly for a moment, and when she opened them again, her eyes showed more weariness and heartache.

"Do you know how Nanxing begged the driver? She said she was pregnant and pleaded with the driver to stop the car, but the driver only said one thing: that President Fu said that even if there was a child, it had to be dealt with together."
