Chapter 56: Chapter 056 Capital Star Playboy Chapter 56: Chapter 056 Capital Star Playboy Lin Fu didn’t want to take leave and go back ho on the first day of school, and her injuries were no longer visible; she had just bled a lot and was still weak.
As her brothers in her past life would say, one shouldn’t leave the frontline for minor injuries; there’s no need to be so delicate.
Thus, since her childhood, she had developed an appearance of delicacy, but deep down she had more perseverance and endurance than anyone.
Children whose health is poor often have a strong desire to prove themselves.
But Lin Fu’s thoughts were irrelevant, for before she could finish refusing, she had been injected with a sedative and taken away by Fu Xing while she slept.
Back ho, after handing her over to Lina, Fu Xing returned to his office.
Horace was already waiting there.
Bernard was also present, along with the deputy commander Monger, and a few other trusted staff mbers.
However, Fu Xing was always low-key; such a small matter didn’t require so many people. With a wave of his hand, he let only Horace and Bernard stay.
After Monger served the favorite teas and drinks of the officers and then left,
“Commander,” Horace, who had been reprimanded by the butler the night before, was eager to show his concern and asked with a worried expression, “How is the lady? Was she frightened?”
Fu Xing looked at Horace with a puzzled expression.
Bernard couldn’t help but facepalm, wishing he could discreetly kick his colleague to remind him to be more tactful.
You, a well-known playboy from Capital Star, suddenly showing concern for the commander’s wife—is that appropriate?
Do you not know your own reputation?
Fu Xing tapped his fingers on the table and said, “Let’s discuss serious matters.”
“Yes!” Horace imdiately switched gears and quickly introduced David’s background, his personal experiences from childhood, and his general social connections, finally summarizing, “Essentially, the conflict between David and the lady primarily arose from a previous report, but Dean Song has already inford that the lady doesn’t intend to pursue the matter, so there really isn’t any deep-seated enmity.”
“How can she not pursue it?” Fu Xing raised an eyebrow, clearly focusing on a different aspect.
Bernard wanted to facepalm again, “Commander, David is already dead, and it’s difficult to hold a dead man accountable.”
“What a pity.”
Soone earnestly expressed regret, thankfully there were no outsiders here, as everyone understood Fu Xing’s nature, a true Fu Family trait of never forgetting a grudge or a favor.
“According to my investigation, David’s attempt to assassinate the lady was instigated by the vice dean of the Land War Academy, Jason. But now that David is dead, without his testimony, it’s difficult to pursue the matter further.”
“Strange, Miss Lin Fu just arrived on Capital Star and hasn’t offended anyone, she hasn’t even gone out socializing or relaxing, how could soone harbor such malice towards her?”
Bernard stroked his chin and thought.
Fu Xing gave him a strange look and coldly retorted, “Miss Lin Fu?”
“What’s wrong?” Bernard looked rightful, “When I t her, she asked to call her Lin Fu, but I felt our relationship wasn’t close enough yet, so I temporarily refer to her as Miss Lin Fu. Once we get more familiar, there will be no need to be so formal.”
“Hmph!” Fu Xing scoffed but did not dwell on the topic.
He realized, however, that his young wife seed to possess a unique charm that made cautious, typically unapproachable individuals take a liking to her.
Like the butler, Bernard.
Like… himself.
“Now that David is dead, dig up this Jason behind him, soone has to take the bla, whether it’s Song Zheng or Jason.” Fu Xing didn’t care what conspiracies lay behind, but since the incident happened, it couldn’t just be brushed aside.
His people were not to be offended.
“Imdiately send soone to capture Jason, once we have him, we won’t lack evidence.”
The others understood clearly and, without further discussion, Horace promptly went to carry out the orders.
