Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 115

Apart from the main highlight of this S.Q exhibition, the blue diamond necklace called ‘Blue Enchantress’, a series of other jewelry pieces were also on display. Among them was the necklace Sheng Nuan had suggested adding green diamonds to, named ‘Deep Sea’.

“…This exhibition would not have been a success without the support of everyone present. Besides the friends I’ve already mentioned, I want to extend a special thanks to my dear friend, Sheng Nuan.”

Tina smiled and waved at Sheng Nuan, then continued, “I’m sure you’ve all heard the background music during the exhibition. It’s beautiful, right?

This piece, ‘Starry Night,’ was composed by my good friend Sheng Nuan specifically for ‘Blue Enchantress.’ Thank you, Sheng. She truly is an amazing woman…”

Below the stage, Fu Yunxi was momentarily stunned.

Sheng Nuan composed that piece?

He suddenly remembered how focused and serious Sheng Nuan looked while working in the studio…

At the same time, Zhao Meijia and her group exchanged glances in disbelief.

So the background music they had just complimented was actually composed by Sheng Nuan!

Zhao Meijia whispered, “Now that I think about it, the melody is pretty average.”

Xu Ning’er immediately agreed, “Exactly, it’s got that same air of vanity and pretentiousness as her…”

After the exhibition, there was a cocktail party. Sheng Nuan remained by Tina’s side, while Fu Yunxi stood surrounded by a group of people, feeling a bit impatient.

Didn’t she see him?

She actually left him hanging just like that, not even bothering to come over on her own!

Was this little lover still worth keeping?

Just then, a woman in a black gown approached him—it was Luo Xinling.

Fu Yunxi frowned instantly. “What do you want?”

Luo Xinling paused mid-step, forcing a smile. “I haven’t had a chance to apologize for the other day, President Fu. I—”

“No need.”

Fu Yunxi replied coldly, “The marketing accounts that spread the rumors have already been deleted and fined. There’s no need for you to apologize on their behalf.”

Luo Xinling’s expression stiffened, but she still didn’t want to leave.

Fu Yunxi was the top diamond bachelor, and he was famously cold, ascetic, and upright. A man like that… no woman would ever pass up the chance if she had one.

Luo Xinling smiled again. “Actually, I wanted to discuss the endorsement deal with President Fu…”

But Fu Yunxi didn’t give her the chance to finish her sentence.”I have plenty of people working for me. I’m not here to personally handle an endorsement deal.”

As he spoke, he suddenly noticed out of the corner of his eye that the man across from Sheng Nuan was reaching out to her. Fu Yunxi’s expression immediately changed. He turned and strode toward them, leaving a flustered Luo Xinling behind, unsure of what to do.

When he got closer, Fu Yunxi realized that the man had only been handing Sheng Nuan his business card. He stopped in his tracks, but by that time, Sheng Nuan and the others had already noticed him.

Fu Yunxi maintained his calm expression as he walked up to Sheng Nuan and asked in a low voice, “When are you heading back?”

Tina, who didn’t know Fu Yunxi, looked at Sheng Nuan and asked, “Nuan, who’s this?”

Sheng Nuan smiled as she introduced them. “This is my friend, Fu Yunxi. And this is Tina, S.Q’s chief designer…”

Friend?

Fu Yunxi found that label strangely grating, but he didn’t have time to dwell on it. He extended his hand and politely shook Tina’s.

Tina returned to the previous topic, insisting that the ‘Deep Sea’ necklace should be gifted to Sheng Nuan.

“I feel like it’s naturally meant to be yours. It’s a strong intuition, dear…”

Sheng Nuan smiled and politely declined.

After all, she believed in reward without merit.

Tina sighed in disappointment.

Later, when Tina went to chat with other guests, and Sheng Nuan left for the restroom, Fu Yunxi approached Tina and expressed his desire to buy the ‘Deep Sea’ necklace.

Tina immediately agreed. “Nuan’s friends are my friends. I’ll have someone bring the necklace to you shortly.”

Fu Yunxi nodded. “Thank you. If there’s ever a chance to collaborate in the future, I’ll make sure to show you my full sincerity.”

Sheng Nuan was a lightweight when it came to drinking, so she hadn’t dared to drink much. Even though she had only had a symbolic sip, she still felt a bit dizzy when she stepped outside.

She wobbled slightly, and her high heels nearly gave way, almost causing her to fall.

Frustrated, Sheng Nuan kicked off her heels… Fu Yunxi next to her was taken aback, both amused and exasperated. “What are you doing?”

Sheng Nuan stretched out her hands towards him. “Carry me.”

Her skin was as smooth as cream, and she looked like a fairy, slightly pouting in dissatisfaction, with a hint of grievance. Fu Yunxi felt a rush of dizziness. He picked up her heels, and then effortlessly scooped her up in his arms, striding towards his car.

This scene left Zhao Meijia and her group, who were watching from not too far away, utterly shocked.

Were their eyes playing tricks on them? They weren’t drunk, were they? But what had they just seen?

Was that Fu Yunxi?

The Fu Yunxi who had been the epitome of excellence since childhood, the one their parents constantly praised as other people’s children¹, and the man who now made even their fathers wary?

And he was… carrying that canary’s shoes?

Zhao Meijia, trembling, pulled her phone out of her purse and frantically tagged Su Nian in the group chat.

Zhao Meijia: Nian Nian, you really can’t wait any longer, Fu Yunxi is about to be snatched away by that fox spirit.

Zhao Meijia: I saw it with Ning’er and the others. Fu Yunxi actually carried Sheng Nuan’s shoes.

Zhao Meijia: Can you believe it? I thought I was drunk…

Xu Ning’er: …Same here.

Gu Sheng: “Nian Nian, Nian Nian, it’s all true…”

Su Nian didn’t respond. Whether she hadn’t seen the messages or didn’t care was unclear, but instead, Han Che appeared in the chat.

Han Che: @Gu Jincheng Gu Er, when are you going to act? Are you just going to give up on that plot of land?

Gu Jincheng, who was sitting in his study listening to music, glanced at his phone and raised an eyebrow slightly…

A plot of land?

If you want land, you need to have the skills to get it.

Judging by the way Sheng Nuan handled the bow and arrow at the horse track last time… He was pretty sure that if he tried to approach her again, not to mention the land, but even his dignity might also be lost.

He might as well listen to music.

Gu Jincheng actually had a deep love for music, especially for obscure but highly talented composers. The piece he was currently listening to was one he had discovered on C Station a few days ago.

When he first saw the uploader’s name, his scalp felt a little numb.

〆﹏Gentle Wild Deer?

What the hell is this? Did a member of the Zang Ai Clan² just randomly show up?

He clicked on the music playlist with a sense of self-destructive curiosity, and then… he was completely hooked.

With a mixture of amusement and bafflement, he found himself increasingly intrigued by this “Wild Deer.”

It was obviously someone very talented, but to have such a melodramatic Zang Ai name… What kind of person could this be?

Just then, he suddenly noticed a red notification dot in his private messages. He clicked on it, and his eyes immediately lit up.

The other party had actually replied to him that afternoon.

A few days ago, he had messaged “Wild Deer” to discuss his thoughts on the other person’s music and share some ideas. To his surprise, the other person had responded, and it was clear they had thoughtfully read his message and replied sincerely.

He suddenly felt as if he had found a kindred spirit and immediately ignored the ongoing group chat…

Gu Jincheng didn’t respond, and the conversation in the group also stalled.

Fu Yunjin, seeing the messages in the group, was equally surprised.

His brother really went?

But then he recalled seeing Sheng Nuan throwing a tantrum in front of his brother the other day, with his brother’s face dark as thunder, yet he hadn’t said a harsh word to her. Thinking about it now, Fu Yunjin didn’t find it all that surprising.

Meanwhile, Fu Yunxi carried the tipsy person clinging to him into the house, flicked on the lights with a snap, and set her down on the entryway bench while he changed his shoes.

As he opened the drawer to put away his watch, he spotted a document.

The cover was blank…

Suddenly, he remembered. This was the agreement Mo Jie had drafted earlier, meant for Sheng Nuan to sign… After all, she was his little lover, and it was better to clarify things from the start to avoid any disputes in the future.

He had casually stashed it here and completely forgotten about it.

Fu Yunxi didn’t pay much attention to it and casually tucked it back in…
