Chapter 14 Fate seems to be playing a joke
The party is currently in full swing, with a lively and enthusiastic atmosphere. Although it is nominally just an ordinary party, it is actually a gathering full of various exchanges of interests and business cooperation opportunities.
Behind this seemingly bustling occasion lies a web of scheming and calculation. Everyone comes with their own purpose: seeking partners, expanding their business, or hoping to make connections with more useful people. There is no genuine exchange or entertainment here, only covert power struggles and games of strategy.
On stage, Fu Shiyue and Mr. Kimmac were chatting happily, both smiling, seemingly discussing some interesting topics. However, at this moment, an uninvited guest walked onto the stage, breaking the harmonious atmosphere. This person was Fu Shiling, whose appearance drew the attention of the entire audience. Fu Shiling walked confidently towards Fu Shiyue and Mr. Kimmac, his eyes revealing a firm and resolute expression.
He suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Kimmac, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Fu Shiyue, the representative of Wanshen Group. You can also call me Elvis. I am here to discuss some potential cooperation opportunities with your company. Of course, this is just a preliminary idea. If you have any questions or need further information, we can communicate at any time."
After saying this, he smiled at Mr. Kimmac and nodded slightly. Then, he took out a carefully prepared plan from a folder he was carrying and gently handed it to Mr. Kimmac.
After receiving the proposal, Mr. Kimmac first glanced at the cover and title before beginning to read the contents carefully. Lu Zhiyan, standing to the side, quietly observed their interaction, silently considering the potential impact and benefits of this collaboration.
After reading it, he nodded thoughtfully, then gave a meaningful smile and said with undisguised admiration, "Is everything you wrote here true? I'm very interested in it." Although his Chinese wasn't fluent, his words revealed his keen interest.
At this moment, Fu Shiyue, who was standing to the side, witnessed the whole process. He turned to look at Fu Shiling, and said with a slight smile, "It seems that you were prepared all along, President Fu!" His words contained both affirmation of Fu Shiling and a hint of curiosity and inquiry.
Standing next to them, Mr. Kimmac felt a surge of doubt when he heard Fu Shiyue address him as "President Fu." He looked at the two men with curiosity and asked, "You both have the surname Fu? Are you brothers?"
Fu Shiling replied calmly, "That's right, I am the half-brother of Mr. Fu of the Fu Group."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent. Those present exchanged bewildered glances, their faces showing surprise and confusion. They had previously heard rumors that the Fu family had two heirs, but knew nothing of the specifics.
At this moment, the news swept in like a whirlwind, plunging everyone into deep thought. Some began to recall rumors they had heard before: that the second young master of the Fu family had been sent abroad to live in his early years, but had suddenly returned to Lancheng. Did this mean his return was related to internal family conflicts? Could the rumors reported in the media about discord between the brothers not be unfounded?
Immediately, various speculations and discussions filled the crowd. People whispered among themselves, trying to find answers in each other's eyes and expressions. This sudden revelation seemed to inject a touch of uncertainty into the previously calm situation, filling people with curiosity and anticipation about the future of the Fu family.
Fu Shiyue slowly walked to Fu Shiling's side, then leaned close to her ear and said in a very deep and intimidating voice, "Fu Shiling, even if you ultimately fail to enter our Fu family's company and instead turn to Wanshen Group, trying to rely on Lu Zhiyan's power, what good will it do? Do you really naively think that by using some petty tricks to get Mr. Kimmac to invest in you, you can make me lose to you?"
His voice conveyed a strong sense of confidence and disdain, as if he had completely seen through Fu Shiling's plans and intentions. Fu Shiyue's eyes were cold and resolute.
It seems to be telling Fu Shiling that no matter what actions the other party takes, they cannot shake his position or surpass his achievements. At the same time, this statement also implies Fu Shiyue's familiarity with business competition and his confidence in his own strength, showing his authority and domineering presence as a successful businessman and family member.
At that moment, their gazes met like two bolts of lightning, as if the entire world froze. Their eyes were filled with unwavering determination, neither willing to yield.
A tense atmosphere filled the air; you could almost hear their heartbeats. Their eyes gleamed with a spark of conviction, a testament to their unwavering belief.
Finally, one of them broke the silence. He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. This smile, though brief, was enough to convey his inner confidence and composure to the other.
Immediately afterward, Fu Shiling said, "It seems we are destined to be on opposite sides."
The other person did not back down, but instead stepped forward and replied, "That's right, but only the strong can have the last laugh."
Night fell, like a giant black curtain slowly covering the entire world. The hustle and bustle of the day was gradually swallowed up...
At this very moment, Xie Shiyun, situated within the virtual white space, quietly observed all the scenes and images displayed on the screen. Those painful memories once buried deep within his heart surged forth like a raging tide.
Every detail, every emotion, became crystal clear in that instant. Tears welled in her eyes as memories of the past played out before her like a movie. Those forgotten fragments, now pieced together to form a complete story, brought her sudden realization.
All the memories, like the final piece of a jigsaw puzzle, fit perfectly into the picture, making the whole scene clear. She finally understood the mysteries of the past and found the key clues to unravel the turmoil in her heart. The resurrection of these memories both pained her and gave her a sense of relief.
She curled up in a ball, clutching her head tightly with both hands, muttering in anguish, "I hate you, I hate you...you liar! Fu Shiyue, you big liar! Ah!"
These two women looked alike, but their personalities were completely different. The original woman was timid and, deeply traumatized by the loss of her parents at a young age, had become increasingly taciturn. However, since meeting Yang, she gradually regained her joy and vitality. He was like a ray of light in her dark world, giving her warmth and hope, and helping her to pull herself together. They leaned on each other, comforted each other, and became each other's salvation.
The woman beside him at this moment was also named Xie Shiyun. She was open-minded, generous, kind-hearted, and straightforward. She came from another world and was an unknown online novelist. Although she wasn't famous, she always held fast to her creative dream and continued writing diligently. She believed that persistent effort would eventually pay off.
For someone who has been immersed in darkness for a long time, there will naturally be a deep longing for sunlight.
"If that's really the case, then I'm willing to do you a favor..." A faint smile graced her face, but her eyes were fixed on the woman on the screen who looked exactly like her, her expression incredibly complex. She murmured softly, "I want you to experience the same pain I have in the future!"
She suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, her face contorting into a grotesque expression. She slowly collapsed, her body gradually turning transparent until she vanished...
She simply couldn't understand why the other person had come into this world. They were originally one, inseparable, and it made no difference who was by that man's side.
Unfortunately, that man killed her parents, and she vowed revenge! Therefore, she had to have another version of herself carry out the revenge plan. And this other version would know everything clearly through shared memories. From this day forward, there will be no more Xie Shiyun in the world.
She was adopted by Fu Shiyue when she was a child, and from then on, he was her only support and family.
Once, their relationship was filled with endless warmth and care. Fu Shiyue doted on her, treating her like his own daughter, giving her meticulous care and love. She grew up in his warm embrace, feeling the warmth and security of family.
However, time flies, and things change. Now, that warmth has vanished, replaced by deep sorrow. Perhaps it's a cruel twist of fate...
Xie Shiyun suddenly woke up from her dream. She saw a woman who looked exactly like her, saying strange things to her, then bursting into laughter, before slowly disappearing from her sight...
In an instant, it was as if a bolt of lightning had cleaved her mind, and countless fragments of memories surged forth like a tidal wave. Those past events, once buried deep in her heart, were now vividly displayed before her eyes. Her eyes widened, and she felt an indescribable fear and doubt welling up within the man who had previously treated her so gently.
She began to realize that this man seemed to be hiding many secrets. And the murder of her loved ones was inextricably linked to him! This shocking discovery made her body tremble uncontrollably, and tears blurred her vision.
She covered her mouth, afraid she would burst into tears. She couldn't believe it was all real, yet the memories were so vivid and undeniable. Her heart was filled with extreme pain and struggle, as if the whole world was collapsing in an instant.
