Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Don’t Want Her to Know
"You may leave now." Fu Xingzhou’s face, hidden in the dark, was indistinct.
Ye Jian’an didn’t dare say another word; he was terrified that the boss might suddenly change his mind—for then his life would definitely be over.
Ye Jian’an had inquired about who Fu Xingzhou was and was fully aware of his reputation.
After Ye Jian’an left, the bodyguard came back in, "Mr. Fu, should we..."
"Don’t touch him for now." Ye Jian’an was Ye Yan’s father, and no matter what their relationship was like, bones would remain connected even if broken. If he actually harmed Ye Jian’an, he’d have no way to explain it to Ye Yan later. "Go buy a seafood shop and transfer its ownership to him as soon as possible."
Ye Jian’an wanted money, but if the money reached his hands, it was likely to vanish at the gambling and liquor tables, so it was better to just give him a physical store. As long as he managed it with care, he would have income, and Ye Yan wouldn’t have to worry about him anymore.
"What about the wife?" The bodyguard was still somewhat worried.
"Just handle the Gambling first; have someone keep an eye on Ye Jian’an."
When Fu Xingzhou first saw Ye Yan in the hospital, he was amazed at first sight and had her secretly investigated, only to find out that Dr. Ye was stubborn and haughty. Even when treating VIP patients, she wouldn’t butter them up.
If he wanted to win her over, he’d need a foolproof strategy or else both would be destroyed.
That’s why Fu Xingzhou started with Ye Jian’an, using Gambling to bait him into falling into considerable gambling debt.
Ye Yan only knew that Fu Xingzhou was occupying her because of her father’s gambling debt, assuming a daughter’s duty to repay her father’s debt. However, what she didn’t know was that reintroducing Ye Jian’an to gambling was also part of his scheme.
Fu Xingzhou had never before considered how Ye Yan would react, dismissing her simply as a woman who could be easily disposed of.
Only now did he realize, this was a hidden danger he had laid himself.
Feeling somewhat irritable, Fu Xingzhou lit another cigarette, just as the screen lit up with a video call from Ye Yan.
She had just gotten off work, holding her phone in one hand, and feeding Sijiu cat food with the other.
Sijiu loved fresh food, which the auntie would prepare daily and store in the fridge to be thawed before Ye Yan returned home to feed him directly.
"Am I disturbing you?" Ye Yan noticed that Fu Xingzhou’s end was quite dark and thought he was entertaining.
"No."
Fu Xingzhou picked up the remote control and opened the curtains, letting the glitzy night lights outside seep in, gradually clarifying his face.
"The auntie said that Sijiu had a bit of diarrhea today. If it doesn’t get better after taking medicine, I was thinking of taking him to see a vet tomorrow."
She bowed her head, staring somewhat sorrowfully at Sijiu as he ate.
Under the warm light, her skin emitted a fine porcelain-like whiteness, and the hair hanging by her ears stirred him with a sudden urge to reach through the screen and gently tuck it back.
"Alright, I’ll come back tomorrow," Fu Xingzhou’s voice softened.
He couldn’t resist raising his finger to lightly touch her face on the screen, "Yanyan."
Ye Yan startled for a moment before lifting her head, her eyes somewhat innocent and bewildered as she looked into the camera, "Are you calling me?"
"Do you not like that name?"
Ye Yan’s face blushed slightly, "It’s nice, but it feels strange to hear you suddenly use it."
She suddenly held the phone straight in front of her face, her features pressing close against it—he could see her fair complexion, slightly lifted phoenix eyes, and plump red lips vividly crashing into his sight, "Are you up to something shady again? Is your wandering heart acting up?"
Fu Xingzhou laughed, "No, I just felt like calling you that."
He flipped his phone’s camera to the front-facing mode and scanned the room, "Look, I’m alone here."
Ye Yan examined closely, then hummed in satisfaction, "Alright, inspection over."
"Yanyan." Fu Xingzhou suddenly called her that again, "You’ll never leave me, right?"
Ye Yan felt that Mr. Fu was being unusually corny today; typically, during their video calls, it wouldn’t be long before he started flirting, but today he seemed to have adopted a persona of deep affection.
But, it was quite useful.
"Okay," Ye Yan quickly answered, "I’m hanging up, going to get medicine for Sijiu."
Staring at the darkening screen, Fu Xingzhou smiled.
The little girl was feeling embarrassed.

After returning to Peninsula, Fu Xingzhou and Ye Yan took Sijiu to the pet hospital together.
After examining him, the doctor said that Sijiu had mild acclimatization issues, probably because the days at the resort were too comfortable, and he had lost his appetite after returning to Peninsula.
But it wasn’t a big problem, and he would recover after taking medicine and receiving some treatments for a few days.
Fu Xingzhou took the prescription to get the medicine; as soon as he had left, the excited nurse stepped forward, "Your boyfriend is really handsome."
With Fu Xingzhou’s looks, wherever he went, he turned heads 100 percent of the time, suave, wealthy, handsome—he was the dream guy of countless girls.
"Not my boyfriend."
The nurse let out a sound of surprise, her face about to show a gossip-hungry expression, but then heard Ye Yan’s gentle voice, "He’s my husband."
"Is it a new marriage?" This pair looked so sweet that it made her start to believe in love.
"We’ve been married for a year and a half." Ye Yan put Sijiu into the cat cage, smiled at the nurse, "Thank you."
Just stepping out, she ran into Fu Xingzhou coming back with the medicine.
The pharmacy was just next door; he had left quickly and returned quickly, hence he heard Ye Yan’s "husband" very clearly.
"Finally willing to admit my status?" Fu Xingzhou took the cat cage and draped his other arm over her shoulders.
"What status? I don’t know what you’re talking about," Ye Yan pretended to look down at Sijiu.
"Hard-mouthed," Fu Xingzhou laughed without taking it to heart.
To think that initially in the hospital, she pretended not to know him, but now when the nurse called him her boyfriend, she immediately corrected it to husband.
Was this a declaration of sovereignty?
His Dr. Ye, had finally seen the light.
"You take Sijiu back home, I still need to go back to the hospital." Ye Yan checked her watch, "I have a surgery this afternoon."
"I just got back and you’re leaving?" Someone seemed somewhat dissatisfied.
Ye Yan quickly hugged him and coaxed him, finally managing to send him off.
"Dr. Ye, there’s someone who says he’s your father, looking for you," Ye Yan had just arrived at her office when a colleague called her.
Ye Jian’an indeed had made a couple of calls, but she hadn’t answered.
She hadn’t expected him to come to the hospital.
"Where is he?"
"Downstairs."
The VIP floor definitely wasn’t a place an ordinary person could access; entering required a strict vetting system to enjoy the highest standard of service.
Ye Yan went downstairs and saw Ye Jian’an standing in front of a flower bed, chatting with a patient.
He had always been a good conversationalist, especially skilled at making women happy. Back when he had money, he was involved in plenty of tabloid scandals.
Ye Yan walked over with a stern face, "How many times have I told you not to come to the hospital looking for me?"
"Ah Yan, don’t be mad just yet," Ye Jian’an quickly pulled her aside, "I came to see you because there’s something I need to tell you. You didn’t answer your phone, so I had no choice but to come to the hospital."
