Chapter 40
Fu Zhen held hid head with his fist, tilted it and looked at the screen of his phone, his fingers slid back and forth. The director’s huge body blocked most of the screenshots behind him, the movie has not yet released, the content is also vague and he can’t fully guarantee that this is the one he made back then.
It’s ridiculous to say that Fu Zhen made a movie about family’s love, it was originally a father’s day gift he gave to Fu Jianchen but was later blocked by that same father. This movie never had a chance to appear.
Fu Zhen turned off the phone and continued with the unfinished portrait, he still occasionally check a few picture about the movie and Shazou Chronicles.
He really doesn’t have much abilities now but he won’t let this people bully him for no reason. If the movie was kept away the way it was—he has nothing to say but if it is release on another person’s name he has a way to ruin that person.
He, Fu Jianchen and Fu Ting really have nothing left to say but he just don’t want his efforts to be used and ruined.
Fu Zhen put down the pen in his hands and looked at the portrait he drew on the computer screen, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips with a hint of bitterness in his smile. He seemed to see himself smiling in his reflection on the screen, not looking good he moved his lips and put away the smile plastered on his face.
After finishing the portrait, Fu Zhen rubbed his fingers and began to draw a draft for the illustration.
Jiang Hengshu as usual did not return from the construction site until the sky was dark, instead of returning to his room as usual he raised his hand and knocked on Fu Zhen’s door. He was taken a back after opening the door and saw Jiang Hengshu standing in front of him.
Before Jiang Hengshu was ignoring him but after he was rescued, Jiang Hengshu’s attitude towards him has returned to the way it was—no it seems to be better than before.
Jiang Hengshu took out an envelope from his pocket,
“This is the monthly salary that the foreman settled for you. You can count it and see if it’s lacking.”
Fu Zhen took it, opened the envelope in front of Jiang Hengshu and swiftly counted the money. The total is one thousand and eight which was 40 yuan more than he remembered.
Fu Zhen recalled that he was caught going to the guard house to wash his wounds, that’s when the foreman deducted half a day’s wage, with the foreman’s stingy character the forty yuan should not be given to him—but maybe the foreman forgot while settling the accounts or maybe he heard that he was kidnapped and comforted him with this.
It was only 40 yuan, Fu Zhen didn’t think too much, he accepted the money and said thank you to Jiang Hengshu.
Jiang Hengshu nodded, pursing his lips and did not speak. Fu Zhen was right, the foreman was indeed stingy, the money was deducted from Jiang Hengshu’s salary instead.
Fu Zhen threw the money and envelope on the bed, he originally thought about choosing a gift for Jiang Hengshu on Christmas to thank him for taking care of him some time ago but Christmas has already passed and that was also when Jiang Hengshu was most indifferent to him.
The gift he choose was still in the drawer and he couldn’t give it to him, Jiang Hengshu saved him again yesterday, how should he repay him?
According to those cheesy old movies, life-saving grace should be repaid using the body, but Jiang Hengshu would not like him to repay his kindness in this way.
It just so happened that he got his salary today, Fu Zhen thought about it and asked Jiang Hengshu,
“Do you have time tomorrow night?”
“What’s the matter?” Jiang Hengshu asked instead.
Fu Zhen raised his head and replied to Jiang Hengshu,
“I want to treat you to a meal”
Jiang Hengshu stared at Fu Zhen’s light-colored lips, his figure reflected in his black eye, he nodded on ghostly manner,
“Okay”
Jiang Hengshu regretted it after answering, actually he didn’t have a lot of time although the disappearance case on the construction site was about to come to fruition his mother was always urging him to go home recently.
Fu Zhen laughed at this moment his eyebrows were vivid and bright and the whole person exuded a pleasant atmosphere, Jiang Hengshu felt it was worth the promise.
Soon after Jiang Hengshu returned to his room, he received a call. It was the person he had called for in the morning.
“Didn’t you say that the result will be given in three days?” Jiang Hengshu asked.
“He isn’t mysterious as I thought he was. Don’t’ you want to know?”
“Spill it.”
“Fu Jianchen, do you know him?” the man asked him on the phone.
“Heard about him.”
“Fu Zhen is the youngest son of Fu Jianchen, two years ago Fu Jianchen brought back an illegitimate daughter, Tang Wanwan. Fu Zhen and Tang Wanwan didn’t like each other, the two of them often quarreled. Later because of Fu Zhen, Tang Wanwan fell from a slope when filming, when Fu Jianchen found out about it, he broke off their father-son relationship with Fu Zhen and kicked him out of the Fu family.”
“I checked this matter. Back then Fu Zhen had someone join the crew but it was not that person who change the rope.”
“Recently Fu Jianchen and Fu Ting seem to have approach Fu Zhen several times because of the copyright issue on Shazou Chronicles. The Liu brothers also kidnapped Fu Zhen because they saw Fu Jianchen approaching Fu Zhen and thought they might have reconciled. Asking for money from Fu Jianchen, but never thought that Fu Jianchen would never recognize Fu Zhen back to the Fu’s house”, the voice on the other end of the phone paused and continued
“Tang Wanwan transferred the photos that should have been sent to Fu Jianchen’s phone to her own phone. Now he may think that Fu Zhen is dead.”
