Chapter 3 The Love-Deprived CEO 3 (1/2)

After three years of entanglement between the Fu family couple, his mother stabbed his father to death at home and then committed suicide. Fu Senran was taken back to the Fu family's old house when he was eight years old.

Grandpa Fu was notified by the police and had his assistant take him back.

Although he looked down on this grandson, he began to groom him to be the heir of the Fu Group because the Fu family was really a useless successor.

Why would nurturing an heir require emotional investment? Besides, the Fu family needed something beyond emotions, so naturally no one taught Fu Senran what love and liking were.

Therefore, the information I read earlier stated that Fu Senran is a contradictory being who subconsciously lacks love and has an extremely strong possessive desire. He may get married, but he definitely will not want children.

He desperately craves love and simply wants a long-term companion who can accept everything about him, including his darker and more twisted personality traits.

That's why in his past life he kept Bai Qianqian like a pet in the manor, but never touched her.

But now that Zi Xi has arrived, she is very confident that she can fall in love with the imperfect Fu Senran, and that she can also make Fu Senran fall in love with her imperfect self.

He just arrived in the small world and needs time to adjust; he can't rush into saying she's his destined future wife.

"Knock knock—"

"Come in."

This time, there was an answer to the knock. Zi Xi carried in a plate with a health-preserving kettle and an unused cartoon plastic cup on it.

Because the health-preserving pot was being held hostage and played with by Fu Senran, Zi Xi didn't leave this time. Instead, she stood aside, staring at her precious pot and Fu Senran's fingers.

Fu Senran's fingers were long and slender, with distinct knuckles like bamboo joints. Beneath his pale skin, they exuded a sense of strength, and faint blue veins undulated slightly beneath the thin skin, making Zi Xi's hands itch to touch and play with them.

Zi Xi frowned as she secretly glanced at her shorter fingers. Was this what they called "childhood fingers" online?

"Ahem... Miss Zi... I noticed your ear earlier... Your birthmark is very unique. This is for you; it should suit you very well."

Seeing that her attention was entirely on his hands, Fu Senran was secretly delighted. He suppressed his smile and took out a delicate little box from his suit pocket.

Zi Xi took the box in surprise, opened it and found a pair of ruby ​​earrings, which looked like two drops of blood under the light and were obviously very valuable.

"This is too valuable! I can't accept it!"

She quickly declined and put it back on the table.

"Take it."

Fu Senran said earnestly, his eyes conveying no room for refusal, "Consider it... a gift to welcome you into our... big family."

Sunlight streamed in through the French windows, gilding Zi Xi with a golden hue. Fu Senran looked at the small red mole on her earlobe, which stood out against her white skin like a ruby ​​in the snow, and wanted to lick it.

After Zi Xi left, Mu Yu, who had been standing to the side for a long time and thought he should be under the car, finally spoke with difficulty.

"President Fu, will this kind of benefit be given to every new employee in the future... or will it be a special benefit only for Miss Shen?"

Fu Senran took a sip of her flower tea and glanced at Mu Yu: "Aren't you getting old now? Do you need to retire early?"

Where is the information I requested?

"Here."

Mu Yu silently handed over Shen Zixi's resume and personal information for the job.

Back at her desk, it was almost time to leave work. Shen Zixi placed the earring on the table, completely unaware of Bai Qianqian's pale face, who had been observing her the whole time.
