Chapter 15: Chapter 15: The Love For Father (V)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“For a person who’s got half his legs in the coffin yet acts calculative to a little girl, don’t you think you’re too immature for your age, Father?”

Fu Pei put away his earphones and tilted his face slightly. The teen’s long lashes were slightly lowered, and it was as though his lashes glinted under the sunlight.

His fair and snowy skin tone contrasted with his dark pupils, which squinted due to the strong light. Before Fu Lei got furious again, he resumed his argument sarcastically. “I’m sorry for my upbringing. What can I do to be born without my parents? I’m surviving on my own without having to kill or steal, that’s pretty good, I say. Do you still expect me to become successful and be at service for the country?”

Fu Pei’s usual untamed manners and the way he spoke emitted a sense of uncalculated rebellion.

Still, Fu Ting could tell that beneath her father’s unconcerned look was suppressed anger.

Brother Fu was working hard, yes, but he was just an eighteen-year-old boy.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At this moment, society had not worn him out just yet. His chest still housed a sincere heart.

Even though he was oppressed by fate with a body littered with scars, he still had the last straw of hope from his parents.

The softest part of Fu Ting’s heart was instantly curled up with fine pain.

She inhaled deeply before she pointed her cold glare at Fu Lei. “My father had no supervision from you, and yet he is independent enoug to raise himself. Fu Chenyi, on the other hand, only knew how to indulge in the finer things in life. Is this the upbringing you meant, pork butcher? Or was it because of bad influence from the previous generation which, in turn, had failed this generation? If that’s the case, then I’m so relieved my father’s out of this influence!”

“You! Both of you!” Fu Lei was short of breath as the blood vessels in his brain were pumping.

Fu Pei’s eyes were cold. “If this is the reason Father asked me to come here, I think I’d like to leave now.”

Fang Yuzhi hit Fu Lei with her arms, and it was only then he recalled the reason he asked Fu Pei to come. “Stand right there,” he barked at them, “I haven’t got to the point yet.”

Fu Pei touched the stud on his ear, and his face exhibited an impatient look.

“It’s so tiring to stand outside, so let’s talk inside.” Fang Yuzhi smiled as she spoke. Her face screamed ‘bad intentions’ as she tried to tolerate Fu Pei.

Fu Pei reached out and played with Fu Ting’s delicately braided hair, while his tone was mean and rebellious as he firmly spoke, “Let’s talk here, outside. From the day I left the Fu family, I mentioned that I’d never set foot in that house. I refuse to contaminate my foot.”

His words were like air that pierced Fu Lei’s back. Luckily, Fang Yuzhi gently patted his back to smoothen the air as her face turned loathsome. “Fu Pei,” she got straight to the point, “do you still remember the fight you had, near the gaming center with a few people two days ago? That group of people reported that it was your brother’s idea. You know, your brother is only seventeen years old. It’d be bad for his future if he gets blacklisted, so Mother would like to ask that you make an explanation at the police station.”

Fu Pei’s dark eyes were as calm as dead water. His voice was icy cold as he restated, “Those people were ordered by Fu Chenyi?”

Fang Yuzhi’s expression slightly stiffened, but her curved smile was easy and gentle. Her voice was soft and considerate when she assured, “That was just a deliberate joke from your brother; he had no bad intentions. It’d be so embarrassing to make matters worse caused by you both at the police station—”

“So how do you want me to explain, Mother?” Fu Pei interrupted her with a carefree smile. “You think the police officers are a bunch of idiots that would believe every word I say?”

“Unfilial son, she’s your mother! What is this attitude?”

Fu Lei was triggered by Fu Pei’s attitude as he pointed at Fu Pei in anger. “Now follow us to the police station and tell them you instigated the fight. Tell them this had nothing to do with your brother!”
