Chapter 37: Misunderstanding

---

Hearing her mother's words, a flicker of panic crossed Fang Yajun's beautiful eyes.

She quickly reached up and buttoned the collar of her dress back up.

"Because the dress was a little small, I probably didn't notice, the buttons were stretched open."

Hearing this, Fang's mother smiled and said, "Our Yajun is a grown woman now, and the kind other girls envy."

"Mom, what are you saying?"

A faint blush rose to Fang Yajun's snow-white skin.

The scene from earlier flashed through her mind. Although Fang Chang had seemed somewhat passive, at the crucial moment, he seemed completely captivated by her figure!

This was something she had been somewhat concerned about, but she hadn't expected to win Fang Chang's favor.

This was purely Fang Yajun's overthinking; after all, who wouldn't like that?

"How's your brother? Was he hurt? That little girl from the Liu family, I thought she was quite sensible before, but I never expected her to be so rude. If it weren't for her mother, I would never forgive her!"

"Mom, Xiao Chang was already unhappy with this engagement, isn't this good enough?"

"No way!"

Mother Fang's voice rose: "Xiao Chang can be unhappy, but the Liu family can't ask to break off the engagement! Otherwise, what would we be? My son is so outstanding, how dare they break off the engagement?"

"Don't worry, I'm your mother, how could I let Xiao Chang suffer!"

"That girl Liu Ruyan had better be appeased by Xiao Chang, otherwise, no one from the Liu family will be allowed to set foot on the Fang family's door again!"

Little did Mother Fang know, the more she said this, the more unsettled Fang Ya Jun became.

"Alright, stop spacing out. I've seen your brother. Go back to the company. There's a lot going on lately. Since you're taking over, you'll have to handle many things personally."

"Only if the Fang family stays stable will you children not suffer!"

"I understand, Mom!"

Fang Yajun turned to look at Fang Chang.

Just then, Fang Chang was also looking towards the door, and their eyes met.

When his mother couldn't see, Fang Yajun stuck out her small tongue and lightly licked her lips.

This unexpected gesture from her usually aloof self instantly ignited a fire within Fang Chang!

If his mother hadn't come in just now…

Fang Yajun clearly noticed Fang Chang's fiery eyes. A sly glint flashed in her beautiful eyes, and after greeting his mother, she left.

As long as Fang Chang stayed with the Fang family, she had no need to worry about not having opportunities.

For example, after get off work in the evenings…

Aren't these all opportunities?

Recently, Fang Yajun had spent a lot of time researching online, taking notes on how to manipulate men.

How could Liu Ruyan possibly be a match for her!

After Fang Yajun left, Fang's mother entered the room.

"Xiao Chang, you... hmm?"

Fang's mother quickly stepped forward and gently touched Fang Chang's lips.

Seeing the obvious red mark on her finger, she teased Fang Chang, "Did that little girl from the Liu family go to see you? They just called me, saying that little girl has been with you the whole time."

"If I've offended you in any way, please don't worry about it."

"Judging from your expression, I don't think I've offended you at all, right? And... hehe..."

Fang's mother patted Fang Chang's shoulder: "My son is probably going to get his comeuppance!"

"Mom!"

Fang Chang said, somewhat amused and exasperated, "Where did you learn to talk like that?"

"From the comments on short videos!"

Fang's mother paused, "Am I wrong? I remember everything they said. Don't underestimate your mother! Do you think your mother is outdated? What a joke!"

"Okay, okay, Mom, you're the most trendy!"

Fang Chang said helplessly, "As for Liu Ruyan... never mind!"

Originally, Fang Chang planned to explain that there was nothing between him and Liu Ruyan, but then he thought, if he explained it was Liu Ruyan, what about the lipstick mark on his face?

Fang Yajun just left. If it wasn't Liu Ruyan, then it must be Fang Yajun, right?

The thought of his mother's potential reaction made Fang Chang's scalp tingle, but he ultimately remained silent.

In his mother's eyes, this was clearly an admission of guilt.

"That little girl has some tricks up her sleeve, but don't worry about her, Xiao Chang. If you want to dump her, dump her anytime! Your parents will back you up. What are the Liu family? They owe us this."

"Thank you, Mom."

Fang Chang felt the concern in his mother's words and thanked her.

Hearing this, his mother said with a hint of reproach, "You're my son. What's there for a son to thank his mother for!"

"By the way, if you and your brother have the chance, go check out the company. There are many positions available for you. You're both grown up now, and you can help your older sister."

"Mom, what about my second sister?"

At the mention of his second sister, a passionate voice flashed through Fang Chang's mind.

Upon hearing the name "Second Sister," Fang's mother's face darkened. "Your Second Sister… don't worry about her! That crazy girl, she's been away from home for so long, and hasn't even come back to check on us. Not a word!"

"How about this, your Eldest Sister has already gone to the company. If you have time now, go see her too."

"Okay."

Fang Chang nodded. He happened to have nothing else to do at the moment.

Going to the company might allow him to continue what he was doing earlier!

With this in mind, Fang Chang didn't hesitate, put on his coat, and went downstairs.

Ku Duo had been waiting downstairs. As soon as Fang Chang arrived, he immediately followed behind, becoming a true invisible bodyguard.

…

Outside the hospital's intensive care unit.

Luo's parents arrived. Luo's father, his face grim, demanded, "Who is it?! Who attacked my son so severely?!"

Seeing Luo's father's terrifying appearance, the legs of the several rich kids trembled.

They truly couldn't afford to offend the Luo family.

But if Fang Chang's affair were revealed...

Forget it! Let him die!

Anyway, back at the club, it wasn't just them; many other people witnessed Luo Mingxiao being brutally beaten by Fang Chang.

The Fang family shouldn't hold a grudge against them.

Thinking this, one of the young men stammered, "Yes, it's Fang Chang, the second young master of the Fang family."

“Fang Chang?”

Upon hearing the name Fang family, Mr. Luo's face darkened.

“My son!”

At that moment, Mrs. Luo cried out at the door, “Who is so heartless as to bully my son! I want him dead!”

“Shut up!”

Mr. Luo hissed, “You've spoiled him so much that he's become like this!”

Hearing this, Mrs. Luo turned around, her eyes brimming with tears, and said, “Isn't he your son?!”
