Chapter 85 Fu Yanci, stop deceiving yourself.

At night, Ruan Liuzheng coaxed her son to sleep as usual. She returned to the study and took another look at the hot search list on Weibo.

After confirming that everything was going according to plan, she returned to her room with confidence, picked up her pajamas and prepared to go into the bathroom to take a shower and go to bed.

However, just as she walked to the bathroom door, the phone on the bedside table rang unexpectedly.

Ruan Liuzheng paused, she looked up at the sky outside, and her beautiful brows gradually tightened.

She pursed her lips, turned around, walked to the bedside table and picked up the phone. Her cold eyes touched the name that kept flashing on the screen, and her expression was slightly startled.

It turned out to be a call from her best friend Ye Shutong!

Ye Shutong had never called her at this time. Thinking of what happened during the day, Ruan Liuzheng's beautiful eyebrows were stained with a bit of worry.

She answered the call without hesitation, but the voice that came from the receiver was not Ye Shutong's, but a strange man's voice.

Ruan Liuzheng's heart tightened. She listened quietly to the voice on the other end, her pale pink lips gradually pursing into a straight line.

After hearing the whole story, Ruan Liuzheng offered a subtle apology to the person on the other end before hanging up.

Her cold eyes were filled with anxiety and worry.

She put down her pajamas, picked up her coat, and hurriedly left Yuelan Huafu.

The call had just come from a waiter at Juese, Yuncheng's largest private club, with her best friend Ye Shutong's number.

Although she didn't know why her best friend went to Juese so late to get drunk, Ruan Liuzheng suspected it was related to today's trending search list and Shi Mufeng.

But the most important thing now was to get Ye Shutong out of Juese before the paparazzi noticed her.

Ye Shutong's job and status would never allow her to do so.

Ruan Liuzheng suppressed her deep worry and rushed to Juese.

At this moment, she was extremely grateful that her best friend still had the rationality to come to Juese, a private and highly secure club,

instead of going to those other smoky clubs, otherwise her trending search, which had just dropped not long ago, would rise to the top of the trending search list again.

By then, it would really be difficult to control public opinion.

Ruan Liuzheng looked at the club in front of her that was full of decadence and extravagance. She took a deep breath and walked in.

After finding the private room that the waiter mentioned, Ruan Liuzheng pushed open the door without any hesitation.

Sure enough, her best friend Ye Shutong was lying on the sofa as soft as a boneless bone. Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes were slightly drunk, and her whole body, including the entire private room, exuded a strong smell of alcohol.

Ruan Liuzheng glanced at the densely packed empty wine bottles on the table, and her brows were slightly frowned.

"You are Miss Ruan, right? Miss Ye just kept calling your name, asking you to pick her up."

The male waiter at the side saw Ruan Liuzheng, a polite smile on his lips, and spoke.

Ruan Liuzheng nodded slightly, she stepped forward to help Ye Shutong up, her beautiful eyebrows revealing a hint of worry.

"Is Shutong okay?"

Ye Shutong heard the familiar voice and opened her charming eyes. She smiled foolishly at Ruan Liuzheng, then reached out and cooperated with Ruan Liuzheng's strength to stand up.

"Ruan Liuzheng, I'm so sad here, can you come and drink with me?"

Ye Shutong covered her chest with her hands, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ruan Liuzheng, with an aggrieved expression.

Ruan Liuzheng was slightly startled.

Looking at her friend's eyes that were so drunk that she couldn't tell east from west, a hint of helplessness flashed across her beautiful eyebrows.

But her heart was filled with heartache.

The two best friends really shared the same fate. They both failed in love and met scumbags.

Fate is really playing tricks on people!

Ruan Liuzheng sighed, she straightened Ye Shutong's tilted body, lowered her tone, and gently soothed Ye Shutong.

While soothing him, she led people towards the door.

The male waiter wanted to lend a hand, but Ye Shutong would not let anyone touch him except Ruan Liuzheng.

Seeing this, Ruan Liuzheng could only shake her head at the male waiter, and then walked towards the door with some difficulty.

Ruan Liuzheng almost half-carried Ye Shutong to the stairs, and was about to reach the first floor when she was blocked by a group of people.

Ruan Liuzheng frowned slightly, and raised her cold eyes slightly, her expression as indifferent as ever.

She said politely, "Sorry to bother you..."

Halfway through her words, Ruan Liuzheng suddenly stopped talking, and looked at the group of people blocking her way with her cold eyes. Her

beautiful eyebrows were suddenly filled with a bit of impatience.

Fu Yanci was the same.

He was surrounded by a group of young men with whom he had a relatively good relationship.

He was supposed to stay at the company tonight to deal with the hot topics, but he was really pissed off by Ruan Liuzheng.

Unable to bear the documents, he accepted a friend's invitation to come to Juese San to relax. He

hadn't expected to run into Ruan Liuzheng!

She was haunting him!

She was hypocritically asking for a divorce while secretly investigating him, like a dog he couldn't shake off.

Really...

Fu Yanci's eyes darkened, his dark pupils slightly raised. He snorted, "What, you're not pretending anymore?"

"You're really going to great lengths to get my attention!"

He clearly didn't see the impatience in Ruan Liuzheng's eyes, only believing that she was still playing hard-to-get.

He even assumed Ruan Liuzheng's behavior during the day was deliberate.

He was convinced that Ruan Liuzheng would never divorce him!

Ruan Liuzheng saw through Fu Yanci's thoughts almost at a glance. She sneered twice and glanced at Fu Yanci with a faint look in her eyes. She

opened her lips and said, "You are blocking the way. Can you move aside?"

Although it was a question, Ruan Liuzheng did not give Fu Yanci a chance to answer. As soon as

she finished speaking, she supported Ye Shutong and moved forward, ignoring Fu Yanci who had not moved aside yet.

Her expression was indifferent, and she didn't even bother to raise her eyes.

Fu Yanci was immediately furious when he saw this. His face turned cold and he moved sideways to block the way of Ruan Liuzheng and the other person.

His expression was full of indescribable contempt and disdain.

"Ruan Liuzheng! I'm warning you one last time, there should be a limit to your trouble! Don't take advantage of my little affection for you and squander it recklessly. Don't wait until you lose both the wife and the army."

Ruan Liuzheng looked at Fu Yanci who was blocking her way firmly. She knew that if she didn't explain clearly, she and Ye Shutong would not be able to leave easily.

Her heart sank, and she slowly straightened up, looking up at Fu Yanci, her cold eyes filled with deep sarcasm.

"Affection? Fu Yanci, at this point, is there any affection left between us? Stop deceiving yourself. You know better than anyone that I'm serious this time!"

"You're just cowardly lost in your own fantasies, unwilling to admit it."

Ruan Liuzheng paused, her beautiful eyes growing more sarcastic. "Just like when you refused to admit it, unwilling to face the reality of your parents' death. Fu Yanci, you're always like this. Once something slips out of your control, you retreat into your fantasy world like a coward."

"When will you truly face reality?"

Fu Yanci's pupils shrank, and the faint discomfort in his heart surged again, threatening to intensify.

But his expression remained impassive.

He stared at Ruan Liuzheng with an unwavering expression, a hint of coldness etched across his handsome face. He

exuded a dignified aura.

Even the group of young men surrounding him fell silent, their breathing slowing as they observed Fu Yanci's expression.

Fearing that if she doesn't investigate, she will get into trouble.

But Ruan Liuzheng was not afraid at all. She met Fu Yanci's eyes coldly, and no emotion could be seen on her pure and unworldly face.

A sarcastic arc appeared at the corner of her light pink lips.

Seeing this, Fu Yanci's expression became even colder, and his stern brows were tightly twisted into a ball.

"Ruan Liuzheng! What do you want? Do you think I really don't dare to divorce you? Do you believe me..."

"What do you mean by believe it or not? Fu Yanci, I really don't want to bother with it anymore. You should have read the documents I sent you this afternoon?"

Ruan Liuzheng interrupted with a little impatience, and her beautiful eyebrows revealed a hint of annoyance.

She continued, "I don't want to give you any more time to face reality. I'll only give you three days. Even if you can resolve the trending search issue in those three days, you won't be able to resolve the issue in the folder." "

I hope that next time we meet, you'll bring the divorce agreement I want."

Ruan Liuzheng, supporting Ye Shutong, pushed Fu Yanci aside without a second thought.

She straightened her back and slowly left Fu Yanci's sight. Her expression was indifferent, her graceful figure elegant yet radiating a chill.

The surrounding young men dared not intervene, and could only watch helplessly as Ruan Liuzheng and her partner left.

Fu Yanci had been stunned the moment he heard about the folder.

The contents within were enough to destroy him and the Fu family.

He had never imagined Ruan Liuzheng would actually threaten him with the folder, nor had he imagined Ruan Liuzheng would be so resolute this time!

Fu Yanci's previously unwavering resolve was undeniably wavering.

He was finally forced to believe that Ruan Liuzheng was truly different this time.

But so what.

Even if Ruan Liuzheng really wants to divorce, Ruan Liuzheng's feelings for him over the years cannot be fake. Such deep feelings, he doesn't believe Ruan Liuzheng can forget them overnight.

Fu Yanci's eyes darkened, he raised his lips, and a shallow arc appeared at the corners of his thin lips.

Deep confidence flashed in his cold eyebrows again.

It seemed that everything was under his control.

...

When Ye Shutong woke up, it was already early morning of the next day.

Ruan Liuzheng pushed open the door of the guest bedroom, and there was a seriousness on her pure and unworldly face.

She walked to the bed, looked down at Ye Shutong who was pretending to sleep on the bed, and said in a cold voice, "Get up."

"We should talk about what happened last night."
