Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Mu Tongrui bent over to pick it up and passed it to Xiao Ya. She apologized, “I'm sorry for bumping into you, Miss.”

Xiao Ya shook her head and took the picture, saying, “It's okay, I wasn't paying attention too.”

“Who's that in the picture?”

Mu Tongrui was really curious about who was the woman to Fu Lingye. Why would she have his picture?

By the looks of it, the picture's owner kept it with care. Although the picture had been taken some time ago, it looked new.

Xiao Ya replied casually, “Oh, he's my ex.”

Mu Tongrui was startled. Never did she expect that she'd bump into Fu Lingye's ex.

Although she had always prepared herself to accept that Fu Lingye had past relationships, she never prepared herself to meet his ex in person. Mu Tongrui couldn't stop comparing herself to his ex.

Obviously, this tall woman who stood in front of Mu Tongrui was way better than her in every aspect.

She did not feel inferior as Xiao Ya's fashion and looks were different from Mu Tongrui's.

Xiao Ya resembled the looks of a lady boss.

But Fu Lingye said that career-oriented lady was not his cup of tea... Could it be possible that he was hurt by such a lady before?

Xiao Ya asked her purposely, “You know my ex?”

Mu Tongrui felt awkward, “What a coincidence, I know Fu Lingye too.”

“Oh, is it? Then that's really a coincidence, you're Fu Lingye's...”

Mu Tongrui admitted, “Girlfriend.”

Xiao Ya laughed, “Nice to meet you, I'm Xiao Ya.”

It was lunchtime so Xiao Ya invited Mu Tongrui for a meal together. Mu Tongrui did not decline the invitation as she would love to ask more about things related to Fu Lingye in the past.

They chose a Chinese restaurant and ordered 8 dishes. There were vegetables, meat, and some dim-sum.

Xiao Ya sighed, “I just returned from the US after staying there for 5 years. I really miss Chinese cuisine!”

Mu Tongrui agreed, “Yes, I was abroad for 3 years too. We cannot compare the food out there with Chinese food.”

Xiao Ya glanced at the skincare product that Mu Tongrui put aside. She asked, “This brand is popular among pregnant ladies but they don't have much effect. Are you... pregnant?”

Mu Tongrui denied subconsciously and answered, “My skin is more sensitive, that's why I go with this brand.”

Xiao Ya curled her lips subtly. She saw the wedding ring and asked, “You're getting married to Lingye soon?”

Mu Tongrui felt that there was nothing to hide. She answered, “Soon, but we're not sure when.”

“Do invite me to your wedding dinner when it happens!”

Mu Tongrui laughed and kept silent. Xiao Ya continued, “I had never expected that Fu Lingye will be married one day, it's such a shocking news.”

Mu Tongrui paused and asked, “Why wouldn't he get married?”

Does Fu Lingye believes in bachelorism?

Xiao Ya sipped on some juice and asked, “Ms. Mu, how long have you and Fu Lingye been together?”

“It's been some time.”

If it wasn't for the surrogacy three years ago, she would only be with Fu Lingye for half a year.
