Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Chapter 98

Fu Lingye approached her, while she kept stepping back.

If any woman who slept with him and gave birth to his kid is his woman, I'm not the only one who meets this requirement!

Even if Yan Yi does not meet this requirement, but what about Xiang Nanqian?

Mu Tongrui was not the kind of woman who held a grudge, but she couldn't accept that Fu Lingye had a child with Xiang Nanqian.

“Then, Xiang Nanqian is also your woman—”

Before she could finish her question, Fu Lingye's phone rang.

Both of them looked at the phone at the same time. It was a call from kindergarten.

Fu Lingye answered the phone, “Hello.”

“May I speak to Fu Siqi's father?”

Fu Lingye knitted his eyebrows. “Speaking. What happened to Fu Siqi?”

The teacher of the kindergarten said anxiously, “Mr. Fu, you should quickly come to the kindergarten. Fu Siqi falls sick after having lunch and falling asleep. We took her temperature, and it is almost forty degrees. She is having a high fever—”

Before the teacher finished speaking, Fu Lingye immediately said in a calm voice, “I'll go over immediately. Please help to bring down her temperature first.”

“Sure.”

After hanging up the phone, Mu Tongrui asked worriedly, “Is Sweetheart sick?”

“Yeah, she has a high fever. I'll go there now.”

“I'll go with you!”

Fu Lingye glanced at her badly injured arm. “You should stay here and wait.”

Mu Tongrui knew that she couldn't help if she followed, and might even cause Fu Lingye trouble. Although she was worried, she did not tag along.

When Fu Lingye rushed to the kindergarten, Sweetheart's face was burning red.

“Daddy, I feel uncomfortable.”

Fu Lingye picked up Sweetheart and comforted her, “Bear with it for a while. I'm taking you to the hospital immediately and you will feel better soon.”

After arriving at the hospital, the doctor suggested an injection. As soon as they arrived in the injection room, Sweetheart was bawling, with tears on her face, refusing to let go of her arms that were wrapped around Fu Lingye's neck. “Daddy, I don’t want to get an injection... I’m afraid! Daddy, I don’t want an injection! The injection hurts!”

“If you don't get an injection, your fever will get worse. Be good. I will take you to buy something delicious after the injection.”

“Daddy, I don't want delicious food! I don't want an injection!”

Seeing that she insists not to get an injection, Fu Lingye simply stopped coaxing her, and directly held her down, while grabbing her moving legs. “Doctor, do it.”

“Boohoo... Daddy, you don't love me anymore... I have to tell grandpa and Mu'mu when I go home that you bully me! Boohoo...”

It was not the first time that Fu Lingye had brought Sweetheart for an injection, so he was experienced. As long as he held her down, it would be done in a short while.

The female doctor took off the little one's pants, and after a while, she injected a syringe of medicine into her body.

After the injection, Sweetheart's eyes turned bloodshot from crying. “Boohoo... Daddy, I will never love you again!”

The little one cried so hard that her chest was heaving, and her shoulders shaking. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand, whereas Fu Lingye ignored her, as he carried her and took the medicine prescribed by the doctor before he left the hospital.

At CEO's office inside the building of Fu Corporation.

Mu Tongrui remembered that her laptop was still on the set, and she wondered if it was broken.

She was about to go to the set to pick it up when there was a knock on the office door.

“Anybody here?”

It was Yan Yi.

Yan Yi opened the door and came in. Mu Tongrui, who was sitting on the sofa, was stunned, whereas Yan Yi was not surprised. She came in with the laptop and walked over, saying, “Miss Mu, are you okay? Your laptop was left on the set, and I reckon that you were in the office of Mr. Fu, so I send it over.”

Mu Tongrui quickly raised her hand to take her laptop, while Yan Yi kindly put it on the table. “Don't move. I remember your wound is very deep. You should just remain seated.”

Mu Tongrui was surprised at Yan Yi's good nature. “Thank you for sending me my laptop.”

Yan Yi smiled and said, “What are you thanking me for? I came here to thank you. Fortunately, you were on the set and blocked the knife for me. Otherwise, I may now still be in the operating room, and the entertainment headlines tomorrow might be, 'Well-known actress Yan Yi was stabbed during filming'. In short, I owe you one. If you need my help in the future, just tell me.”

Mu Tongrui was dumbfounded, as she didn't expect Yan Yi to be so friendly. She touched her neck embarrassedly, “Actually, I didn't purposely—”

“The fact is you blocked the knife for me. Whether you did it on purpose or not, I am very grateful to you. One day, I will treat you and Mr. Fu to a meal. Bring along Sweetheart too.”

Yan Yi's words made her feel like she actually regarded her, Fu Lingye, and Sweetheart as a family...

Doesn't Yan Yi like Fu Lingye?

Could it be that she really misunderstood them?

Mu Tongrui told the truth. “Miss Yan, in fact, I am not Fu Lingye's girlfriend.”

Yan Yi smiled meaningfully at her. “You may be in the future, just work hard. Besides, I think Mr. Fu likes you too.”

Mu Tongrui became even more confused. “Miss Yan, don't you like—”

“You don't think I like Mr. Fu, do you?” Yan Yi seemed to have heard a joke. “Now I see. You must have misunderstood because you saw the scandal this morning. Mr. Fu and I, how is it possible...”

Yan Yi subconsciously tried to imagine them being together. There was no attraction between her and Fu Lingye. It was impossible that they would have any chemistry!

“But you are so close with Sweetheart...”

“I'm close with Sweetheart because I like children very much. Fu Lingye and I were not friends at all. He was a good friend of my husband, so he often brought Sweetheart to our house. When the two men talked about things, I had to look after Sweetheart, and after some time, we become close.”

Husband? The dream girl of every man, Yan Yi, is actually married?

Before Mu Tongrui could accept the news, Yan Yi walked to the door of the office, turned around and smiled faintly at her. “By the way, the photo at the bar last night was requested by me and Mr. Fu deliberately played along with me. My husband and I had some problems recently, so I deliberately used Mr. Fu to make him jealous.” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

In the eyes of the public, Yan Yi's beauty was that of distant and arrogant, which made her seem unapproachable. Mu Tongrui did not expect her to be so affable.

“The reason why Mr. Fu is willing to play along with me is that, I think, he has the same goal as mine. Although he didn't say it clearly, we can see that he was in a bad mood last night.”

Mu Tongrui was stunned. Is it because of me? Because I lied to him yesterday?

There's really nothing between Yan Yi and Fu Lingye.

For no reason, Mu Tongrui breathed a sigh of relief, but felt guilty for judging Fu Lingye so hard earlier.

Sweetheart cried all the way.

When they arrived at Fu Corporation, Sweetheart was already exhausted from crying, and gradually stopped crying.

This little one was good at everything, but she was spoilt by Old Master Fu, and had the habit of crying harder once she was coaxed when she was upset. Over time, she could not get rid of this habit.

When Fu Lingye ignored her, she would just cry for a while before she stopped. If he coaxed and comforted her, she would cry harder instead.

After Fu Lingye carried her into the lift, Sweetheart asked pitifully with her arms around his neck, “Daddy, why don't you coax me?”

“I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I coax you?”

“Daddy, you bullied me. I said I don't want the injection, as it hurts, why didn't you listen to me, daddy?”

Fu Lingye said with a serious face, “Injection can reduce the fever. Even if your grandfather was here just now, you must also get the injection. And you will still have to get an injection tomorrow!”

“No, I don't want... Boohoo...”

The little one started crying again with her mouth open. When they reached the office on the 66th floor, Mu Tongrui heard a loud cry even before they entered the office.

As soon as the office door was opened, and Sweetheart saw Mu Tongrui, she stretched out her small arms to ask Mu Tongrui to carry her. “Boohoo... Mu'mu! Daddy is being fierce to me!”

Mu Tongrui was about to carry Sweetheart when Fu Lingye glanced at the wound on Mu Tongrui's left arm, and suddenly said coldly, “Don't bother about her!”

“Why are you being so fierce to her? Sweetheart is already sick and feels uncomfortable. You being fierce to her will make her feel even more uncomfortable.”

With a long face, Fu Lingye put Sweetheart on the sofa, walked back to the desk to work, and completely ignored her.

The little one cried hard, and complained, “Mu'mu... boohoo. Daddy is so fierce...”

Mu Tongrui initially felt a little guilty toward him because she misunderstood him, but at this moment, seeing him being so fierce toward Sweetheart, while remembering that he was so good to Han, she was a little angry and said, “Although Sweetheart is a girl, she is also your own daughter. You are so patient with Han, why are you not even showing any patience toward Sweetheart?”

Does he favor Han just because Han is his son who was born by Xiang Nanqian?
