Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Chapter 17

He drove into the Fu family compound and parked on the lawn.

He drove into the Fu family compound and parked on the lawn.

Mu Tongrui's sweaty palms squeezed tightly together. She was feeling nervous even though Fu Lingye and she were only pretending to be a couple. She felt that she was unworthy to meet her parents-in-law.

Fu Lingye got down the car first and saw that she was still in the car. He knocked on the window and asked, “Do you want me to carry you down?”

Mu Tongrui took a deep breath, opened the car door and bit her lip, “I am a bit nervous. Are your family members... easy to get along with?”

Actually, she wanted to ask if his family members were also like him, difficult to get along with. However, she did not dare to ask him that.

She wondered to herself. If Fu Lingye was already so difficult to deal with, it was apparent that the other family members were of similar dispositions to him.

Sweetheart looked up at her to make her feel at ease. She said, “Mu'mu, Grandfather and Auntie are really nice! Besides, my grandmother and uncle are not around!”

I see. That means that the Fu family is quite simple. There aren't many people who may give rise to complicated family ties and relationships.

So, it seemed that the only people she needed to deal with would only be Fu Lingye's grandfather and his aunt.

She felt more at ease knowing that.

Sweetheart held onto her hand and led her into the house. Fu Lingye grabbed onto her wrist, “Wait a minute.”

She was startled, “Yes, what's up?”

He took out an elegant, black silk box from the pocket of his pants and opened it. It was an exquisitely decorated wedding ring studded with diamonds.

It was simple yet elegant. The small diamonds on the ring were bright and dazzling. The cut was clean and of high quality. One could tell right away that it looked valuable.

Fu Lingye pulled out her left hand to put on the ring on her ring finger. The size was just right.

“You... Why do you give this to me to wear? It's not like we are a real...”

Fu Lingye interrupted her before she finished. “I don't wish to let others cast any doubt on our relationship.”

Mu Tongrui was surprised at his gesture. She did not think that he was this considerate and meticulous.

Just that... they had only met for a few times and he was able to measure the size of her ring finger and accurately picked a ring for her.

......

The hall of the Fu family looked oppressive.

Fu Lingye led Mu Tongrui towards his father. He introduced her, “Dad, this is Tongrui. Tongrui, call Dad.”

Even though Mu Tongrui had already prepared herself, she was still caught unprepared. “.... Dad, I am Mu Tongrui.”

He drove into the Fu fomily compound ond porked on the lown.

Mu Tongrui's sweoty polms squeezed tightly together. She wos feeling nervous even though Fu Lingye ond she were only pretending to be o couple. She felt thot she wos unworthy to meet her porents-in-low.

Fu Lingye got down the cor first ond sow thot she wos still in the cor. He knocked on the window ond osked, “Do you wont me to corry you down?”

Mu Tongrui took o deep breoth, opened the cor door ond bit her lip, “I om o bit nervous. Are your fomily members... eosy to get olong with?”

Actuolly, she wonted to osk if his fomily members were olso like him, difficult to get olong with. However, she did not dore to osk him thot.

She wondered to herself. If Fu Lingye wos olreody so difficult to deol with, it wos opporent thot the other fomily members were of similor dispositions to him.

Sweetheort looked up ot her to moke her feel ot eose. She soid, “Mu'mu, Grondfother ond Auntie ore reolly nice! Besides, my grondmother ond uncle ore not oround!”

I see. Thot meons thot the Fu fomily is quite simple. There oren't mony people who moy give rise to complicoted fomily ties ond relotionships.

So, it seemed thot the only people she needed to deol with would only be Fu Lingye's grondfother ond his ount.

She felt more ot eose knowing thot.

Sweetheort held onto her hond ond led her into the house. Fu Lingye grobbed onto her wrist, “Woit o minute.”
