Fu Qi looked at Mu Ran helplessly and his heart ached for her. He gently patted the back of her hand, “Forget it, this matter is between the two of you so I won’t worry about it. But you have to promise me that you’ll come over more often in the future when you’re free. You have to come to visit me more often.”
Fu Qi had always been sick. Two years ago, he had simply handed over all his power and wholeheartedly chose to spend his time in the temple. But even so, he often felt that he was unable to do as he wished.
Mu Ran hurriedly nodded. However, when she thought about how she was no longer Fu Ting’s wife, visiting Fu Qi felt that somewhat improper.
Fu Qi pulled Mu Ran along and they spoke very closely.
Fu Ting stood outside the door. The soundproofing of the room was not very good, so he could hear the conversation between the two of them intermittently.
Although he did not like Mu Ran, he could not deny that Mu Ran was treating his grandfather well sincerely. The two of them talked about everything, and his grandfather was even closer to her than himself. Even though Wu Qiong and the other relatives didn’t approve of her and were mocking her, she still took care of Fu Qi as usual.
Especially after Fu Qi had already handed over his power and couldn’t bring Mu Ran many benefits.
So even if he hated Mu Ran for pushing Miao Man down the stairs, he didn’t send her to prison for his grandfather’s sake.
This was probably his last mercy to her.
After waiting for a while, Mu Ran pushed the door open and said goodbye to the old man inside, “Mr. Fu, take care of yourself. I’ll come to see you again when I’m free next time.”
Then, she carefully closed the door and looked at Fu Ting who was standing beside her.
She thought that he had left a long time ago.
“I’ll send you back,” Fu Ting took a step forward and said flatly. His tone didn’t allow her to refuse.
“No need.” Mu Ran subconsciously took a step back. In the past, she was very obedient. As long as Fu Ting asked her to do it, she would not even think twice about it. She would instinctively do as he asked and would not care about the consequences and losses.
“I called Wang Man and gave her the address here. She will be here soon.”
Fu Ting’s eyes darkened.
He was being kind since he thought that it would be difficult to hail a car halfway up the mountain and that he was the one who brought her here. He did not expect Mu Ran to reject him for the first time.
She sure was getting bolder.
Before he could react, a red Ferrari stopped in front of Mu Ran.
Qin Wei rolled down the window. After getting out of the car, he opened the door of the passenger seat and nodded at Mu Ran.
Mu Ran only hesitated for a second before getting into the car.
“Why are you here? Where’s Wang Man?” Mu Ran lowered her voice and asked. Her cheeks were slightly red from embarrassment as she did not want to trouble Qin Wei.
From Fu Ting’s point of view, they looked so intimate that it made him uncomfortable.
“Wang Man was drunk and could not drive so she asked me to pick you up,” Qin Wei said as he passed a blanket to Mu Ran. “The window is a little broken and the wind is strong at night so you should put this on.”
“Okay.”
Mu Ran mumbled softly. She had to admit that Qin Wei was quite attentive.
…
Fu Ting watched as Qin Wei picked Mu Ran up. His expression was uncertain and unsightly.
He stood there for a while before taking out his phone and dialing Lin Li’s number.
“I asked you to look into Qin Wei before. What have you found?”
“Qin Wei used to be in the same university as you and Madam and he was on her debate team so they had frequent contact with each other. He had publicly pursued her before and although he did not succeed, many people in the school liked them as a couple. Qin Wei is two grades higher than you and her. After graduating, he went abroad to study medicine, and only recently returned to the country.”
Fu Ting did not give him much time so that was all Lin Li managed to find.
“Madam?” Fu Ting smiled coldly. “Lin Li, I have already divorced her. Aren’t you going to change your words?”
“I’m sorry, my bad.” Lin Li came to his senses. He subconsciously thought that Mu Ran was still Mrs. Fu. “I meant Ms. Mu.”
Fu Ting did not speak and hung up instead.
Why did he not have any impression of Qin Wei? He had never heard Mu Ran mention him before.
Moreover, Mu Ran who was so submissive and didn’t like to talk was actually on the school debate team in the past?
Unfortunately, Fu Ting did not know that even when Mu Ran was still a student, she had also shone brilliantly. She had once led the school debate team to engage in “verbal warfare and slaughter”. It was because she liked Fu Ting that she became careful and cautious in front of him, she did not even dare to say too much.
She loved Fu Ting very much but the more she loved, the worse she felt..
