Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

While driving the car, Xu Kun glanced at Fu Lingye in the rearview mirror. The man's face was sullen. He was obviously in a gloomy mood.

“Boss, is there any misunderstanding in this matter? I don't think Miss Mu would do that kind of thing...”

By the end of his sentence, the look on Fu Lingye's face was so cold that Xu Kun obediently shut his mouth.

After the black Maybach arrived at the Mu family villa, Fu Lingye entered the villa. After he didn't see Mu Tongrui downstairs, he went upstairs and saw Mu Tongrui lying asleep on the big bed with a tear-stained face.

Did she cry?

Fu Lingye raised his brows slightly then he walked over lightly and sat down next to her. He raised his hand to wipe off the tears on her fair face and he saw her pink lips moving.

Her voice was very soft, so Fu Lingye couldn't hear it clearly. When he leaned over, he heard her muttering chokingly in her sleep, “Dad... sorry... Dad... I'm sorry...”

Fu Lingye's dark eyes turned cold in an instant.

Sorry? Does being with me make her feel sorry for her father?

Fu Lingye asked Xu Kun to investigate the case about Mu Group. At that time, real estate was in high demand. As a developer, Fu Corporation developed a large number of projects in Bei City. Due to the shortage of supply, these projects were contracted to many construction companies. Among them, the construction of one of the buildings was contracted to Mu Group back then. The people under Fu Lingye drew up a contract which required Mu Group to complete the construction within two months. This requirement was actually reasonable, as two months was more than enough according to plan.

Moreover, considering how resolute and domineering Fu Lingye was, it was already a show of mercy that two months was given to complete the construction of a building.

At that time, Mu Group was running a large deficit. Mu Guangqing was taking a gamble to revive Mu Group, so he accepted the project. However, the project couldn't be completed on time due to the heavy snowfalls for several days in a row. To make things worse, Mu Guangqing's employee embezzled funds and ran away. That caused big blow to the Mu Group. The lawyer of Fu Corporation sued Mu Group for compensation for the delay. That was a huge amount of money.

Fu Lingye held a high position so he didn't pay much attention to the affairs on small construction companies including the bankruptcy of Mu Group that year.

After all, Mu Group was nothing but an ant to Fu Corporation and Fu Lingye was busy as well. So he wouldn't probe deeper into the fate of a small construction company.

However, after Fu Lingye asked Xu Kun to investigate the matter a few days ago. He found out that Mu Guangqing went to look for him at Fu Corporation back then, but he refused to see him. Not long after Mu Group went bankrupt, Mu Guangqing committed suicide by jumping off the building. According to Xu Kun, that was because there were too many creditors and too many debts. All the banks in Bei City refused to give Mu Guangqing a loan. With that, he had no choice but to end his own life.

As far as Fu Lingye was concerned, business was business, not to mention that he did not know Mu Tongrui at that time.
