Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

She was held under him, while her pitiful and helpless look irritated and upset Fu Lingye, but he also felt like his heartstrings were being tugged at.

Does she stay by my side entirely for Sweetheart?

Fu Lingye stared at her watery eyes for a long time, before he finally let go of her. Pursing his thin lips, he said lukewarmly, “Since you want to draw a line with me, what do you think the others will think if you go out of my office in such a disheveled state?”

Mu Tongrui felt even more aggrieved, and raised her hand to wipe her tears, while saying, “Worse comes to worst, I will just quit.”

“Mu Tongrui, can you be more ambitious?”

Fu Lingye grabbed her slender wrists and frowned at her.

She choked and said, “I'm just unambitious like that. I'm just so useless. I don't even have the right to be with my biological daughter!”

“When did I say that you are not allowed to be with Sweetheart?”

Didn't this woman learn Chinese well when she was a child? Why does she always misinterpret my words?

“You just said—”

When Mu Tongrui was about to refute, the man interrupted her, “It's impossible for you to leave with Sweetheart. Firstly, I don't allow it, and secondly, Old Master Fu will not allow you to take Sweetheart away.”

Mu Tongrui sobbed. “Aren't you just refusing to let me...”

“But you can stay in Fu family, as Sweetheart's mother.”

Mu Tongrui was stunned, her mind muddled. She didn't quite understand his words. “But I can't stay in Fu family forever.”

Fu Lingye suddenly drew closer to her, his eyes locking on her sharply. “Mu Tongrui, you seem to have not figured out the relationship between us.”

She was confused, and subconsciously uttered, “We are just friends with benefit...”

As soon as she finished her sentence, the man's gaze had obviously turned cold.

“What did you just say about our relationship?”
