16.Almost got discovered

"..." Maybe the urge to strangle people is contagious. Su Ci now had the urge to strangle Fu Jue to death. She immediately hid behind Fu Jue, preventing Fu Nancheng from seeing her face. "Young Master Fu, please don't tell anyone about me pretending to be ugly, especially your uncle."

"Why?" Fu Jue asked in confusion.

"Because... the reason is very complicated. Young Master Fu, I'm begging you. Please don't tell anyone about this. Please keep it a secret for me."

Seeing Su Ci's serious expression, Fu Jue nodded and agreed. "Well, okay. I promise to keep your secret. But, you also have to promise me one thing."

"What is it?"

"Be my girlfriend."

"..." This guy was taking advantage of the situation, right? "No, Young Master Fu. I've already said that I don't like you. Please don't waste your time on me, okay?"

"Then you should at least give me a chance. Let's give it a try. How about this? You be my girlfriend for a month. If you still don't like me after a month, I won't pester you anymore."

Did she have a choice? No, she didn't, because Fu Nancheng had already taken long strides towards them. Closer, closer. If she didn't agree, everything would be exposed.

"Okay, I promise. I'm going to touch up my makeup now." Su Ci turned around and ran away.

At this moment, Fu Nancheng walked over. He glanced in the direction where Su Ci had disappeared and pursed his thin lips unhappily. "Fu Jue, what are you shouting about here? I seem to have heard you asking me to come over and look at Su Ci's face. What's wrong with Su Ci's face?"

"Oh, Uncle. I asked you to come over and see how ugly Su Ci's face is. I found that Su Ci is even uglier today than she was yesterday. Hahaha."

Su Ci, who had just finished touching up her makeup and came back, "..." Thank you for this!

"Ugly girl, come here quickly. Uncle, I'm officially announcing to you that the ugly girl is my girlfriend now. She's already agreed to date me."

Su Ci felt Fu Nancheng's cold and sharp gaze land on her, as if it could bore several holes through her. She had just gotten off his bed, and now she was his nephew's girlfriend. No wonder he thought she was a shameless woman.

"President, the meeting will start in half an hour. We should go back to the company." At this moment, Secretary Song reminded him in a low voice.

Fu Nancheng retracted his gaze and turned around to leave. Finally, he was gone. Su Ci slowly relaxed.

"Ugly girl, I'm really loyal, right? I didn't let out a word about you pretending to be ugly. Come on, let's go on a date. I'll treat you to a movie tonight."

"No, Young Master Fu. I don't want to watch a movie. I'm leaving now." Su Ci left as well.

...

Just after she left, a melodious ringtone of a mobile phone sounded. Li Lan was calling her. Su Ci pressed the answer button. "Hello, Mom."

"Su Ci, come home immediately!" Li Lan said coldly and hung up the phone.

Su Ci took a taxi back to the Su family's residence.

In the Su family's house. As soon as she entered the living room, she heard Su Xue's crying. "Mom, this is the text message Su Ci sent me. She deliberately invited me to Room 809 so that Sun Quan could bully me!"

Su Xue was now disheveled, and there were bruises on her body. She looked really pitiful.

Li Lan hugged Su Xue affectionately and comforted her. When she saw Su Ci come back, she immediately stood up and accused, "Su Ci, you're so scheming and vicious. You actually tricked your sister into Room 809 to be bullied by Sun Quan. Do you know what kind of person Sun Quan is?"

Su Ci stood in the living room, looked up at Li Lan, and smiled softly. "Oh, so Mom also knows what kind of person Sun Quan is. I thought Mom didn't know."
