Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Did Old Master Fu find out about the fake marriage?

Mu Tongrui's first thought was that Xiang Nanqian who had known about it had exposed them. But why did she pick this timing?

Seeing as how they remained silent, he erupted. With his walking stick, he knocked it against the floor several times and scolded, “Have you all turned mute? No guts to own up?”

Just as Mu Tongrui was about to explain, Fu Lingye spoke calmly, “Dad, Mu Tongrui and I are having a trial marriage.”

Trial marriage?

Old Master Fu knitted his brows and stared at him, “Trial marriage? Fu Lingye are you trying to be funny with me? Do you want me to break your legs?”

Fu Lingye continued unperturbed, “Tong Rui is Sweetheart's biological mother. This is a fact. Since they're related by blood, we would definitely be in contact. However, Tong Rui and I need to develop our feelings at our own pace. So, for Sweetheart's sake, we decided to have a trial marriage.”

Old Master Fu laughed coldly, “Beautifully said! Trial marriage. If you realized that both of you are not compatible after the trial, what's your plan?”

“We won't get married.”

“What happens to the child?”

Fu Lingye was silent for a few seconds before he replied, “But I have decided that Mu Tongrui and I are compatible and I intend to marry her.”

Stunned, Mu Tongrui raised her eyes in surprised.

Is he serious? Or did he say that to pacify Old Master Fu?

Before Mu Tongrui could recover herself, Old Master Fu raged, “I object to the marriage!”

“Dad, the marriage is between me and her. Your objection has nothing to do with me.”

Old Master Fu trembled in anger, “You! Fu Lingye! Good going! Unfilial son!”

Mu Tongrui never would have thought Fu Lingye would speak to Old Master Fu like that for her. She tugged at Fu Lingye's sleeves, hinting him to be more tactful.

Old Master Fu pointed at Mu Tongrui and berated, “Get out of Fu Family if you insist on marrying her! Three years ago, she became the surrogate mother for Sweetheart with ill intentions! I will not allow a scheming woman to be the mother of my granddaughter! Neither will I allow her to become the daughter-in-law of my Fu Family!”
