Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Mu Tongrui told Lu Jiahe honestly: “Fu Lingye has a cousin who is the daughter of his uncle. His cousin seems to be very attached to him since childhood and admires him very much, but she seems to be particularly hostile to me.”

Lu Jiahe asked: ”Did you offend her in any way?”

Mu Tongrui thought for a long time, but couldn't think of an instance where she had offended Fu Jia. Then she replied: ”I have only met her once or twice. But she gave me the cold shoulder every time we met and didn't like seeing me. Although I won't see her often in the future, I always feel that, as Fu Lingye's wife, I should get on well with his relatives.”

Lu Jiahe replied: ”I agree. But after hearing you out, I realize that getting married is so troublesome. I don't want to get married anymore.”

Mu Tongrui looked at the screen and chuckled, replying: ”Are you really not going to get married? Won't your mother pester you?”

Lu Jiahe replied: ”Oh, don't mention it. My mother called me just now and asked me to take Chi Jun home for dinner, but I have broken up with him. I don't know how to tell my mom yet. She will definitely blame me for not being good enough. How annoying is that?”

Mu Tongrui immediately thought of Jiang Xinghe. She found it strange that she would always think of Jiang Xinghe first in anything that was related to Lu Jiahe.

She replied: ”Why don't you ask Jiang Xinghe to go back with you? Your mother might forget about your relationship with Chi Jun after seeing Jiang Xinghe. Who knows?”

Lu Jiahe replied: ”Oh, gosh. Bringing Jiang Xinghe home is like I'm having a death wish. So forget it, I don't want to bring trouble for myself.”

After chatting with Jiahe for a while, she fell asleep leaning on the soft pillow.

After some time, she felt that someone took the phone from her hand and was slightly startled. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Fu Lingye through her sleepy eyes.

“Why do you always sleep with your phone?”

Fu Lingye reproached her gently while pulling the blanket up to cover her properly.

Mu Tongrui changed into a more comfortable position and muttered in a hoarse voice, “I fell asleep while chatting with Jiahe. Did you just come back?”

“Yeah.”

“How is Uncle Zhenghui? Is he awake?”

Fu Lingye said calmly, “Yes, the doctor said he's all right.”

Mu Tongrui nodded and felt a little sleepy but couldn't sleep anymore. She yawned and asked, “What time is it?”

“It's almost ten o'clock.”
