Fei Mo frowned slightly when he saw the heavy rain. Without waiting for Ah Qing to finish speaking, he said sternly, “You’ll address her as Mrs. Fei from now on…”
Ah Qing knew Fei Mo was displeased so he no longer said anything.
The rain showed no sign of stopping. Instead, it looked like it had gotten heavier.
Fei Mo looked at the sky and asked in a deep voice, “How did she leave?”
Ah Qing was stunned. He thought of Yun Yiyi who had just left and replied immediately, afraid to incur Fei Mo’s displeasure again, “Madam ran toward the subway station earlier. She didn’t bring an umbrella.”
‘So she was caught in the rain?’ Fei Mo furrowed his brow when he thought about this.
“Young master, should we return to the company or…” Ah Qing sighed in relief inwardly when he saw Fei Mo no longer wore a cold expression on his face. He closed the car door, keeping the cold air at bay. He suddenly sneezed, and when he looked up, he saw a cold face in the rearview mirror. He hurriedly apologized.
However, Fei Mo did not seem to have heard him. Instead, he said in a low voice, “Go to the shopping mall nearby…”
Ah Qing was confused, however, he quickly replied, “Yes.”
…
When they arrived at the mall, Ah Qing saw Fei Mo make his way to the women’s department. Realization dawned on him immediately. It seemed like his young master came here to buy clothes for Yun Yiyi! Did this have something to do with why his young master asked him how Yun Yiyi had left earlier? Yun Yiyi was a divorcee. Moreover, this was just a marriage of convenience. Was there a need to treat her so well?
When Ah Qing saw his young master picking out clothes, he could not help but feel wistful. He had been by Fei Mo’s side for a long time. All these years, Fei Mo had never given gifts to anyone from the opposite sex apart from his mother, Luo Wanxin. Did his young master finally learn how to appreciate women?
Fei Mo, who was unaware of Ah Qing’s worries, held a white work dress in his hand. He recalled the long black dress Yun Yiyi had worn earlier and tried to guess her taste in clothes. She did not wear any jewelry or accessories. The only piece of jewelry she wore was a crystal bracelet. Based on the way she spoke, her decisive and swift way of doing things, he thought she should like a simple and neat dress like the one he had chosen. With that, he happily decided on buying the white dress.
After paying for the dress, he returned to the Rolls-Royce Phantom and said to Ah Qing, “Send me back to the company before you send this dress to the Hua Corporation.”
“Yes, young master.”
After a slight hesitation, Fei Mo said, “Send them to the front desk and have someone inform her to pick it up. There’s no need to leave a name.”
“Yes.”
“Pick her up at Hua Corporation at 5:30 and bring her back to Wan Mei Villa.”
“Yes.”
“Inform grandfather that I’m no longer single and have gotten married.”
“Ah…” Ah Qing’s eyes widened when he heard this. It was not a problem for him to inform the old master about Fei Mo’s marriage, but what should he say about his young master’s wife? He could not possibly say his young master’s wife was a divorcee, could he?
Ah Qing’s reaction, naturally, did not escape Fei Mo’s notice. “What?”
“Young… Young master…” Ah Qing looked at Fei Mo uneasily. After determining that Fei Mo was not displeased, he mustered up his courage and asked, “Young master, can I ask you a question?”
“Speak.”
Ah Qing had been with Fei Mo for more than ten years. He knew as long as Fei Mo was not displeased, it was fine for him to speak his mind. “Young master, for so many years, you’ve never been interested in any woman. I even suspect that you’re…” He quickly swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue and gauged Fei Mo’s expression.
As expected, Fei Mo’s expression was frosty. However, he looked at the raindrops dripping down the car window and said, “You can speak frankly…”
Ah Qing hesitated for a moment before asking tentatively, “Young master, are you homosexual?”
“No,” Fei Mo replied without any hesitation.
Ah Qing instantly heaved a sigh of relief, feeling more at ease. “Since you don’t like men, with your status, you can have your pick of women. All those socialites are scrambling to marry you, but why did you choose to marry Yun Yiyi, a divorcee?” He was afraid he would anger Fei Mo again so he hurriedly added, “Young master, you were the one who asked me to be frank…”
At the mention of Yun Yiyi, Fei Mo’s furrowed brows seemed to ease slightly. He did not mind Ah Qing’s words. He asked, “Since you’re aware of these things, then, you should be aware of how the socialites in Jiang City view me, right?”
Ah Qing felt ashamed that his thoughts had been exposed. Fei Mo was a highly sought-after bachelor in Jiang City. He was handsome and rich. He had all the qualities that women wanted in a man. If Fei Mo were not so distant and cold, there would be even more women buzzing around him. How could someone like Yun Yiyi even stand a chance?
“As the president of Fei Corporation and the future heir to the Fei family’s fortune, every action of mine is scrutinized by people. These people are watching to see who will be able to get a share of what I own and will own,” he said with a self-deprecating laugh, “Ah Qing, do you really think those high-society women are as dignified, virtuous, and capable as they appear to be? Do you really think they’re in love with me, Fei Mo, and not the president of Fei Corporation and the heir of the Fei family’s fortune?”
Ah Qing, who had never thought of this, was slightly taken back. He could not answer Fei Mo’s question.
“What if I’m a poor man who earns 3,000 a month and struggles to make a living? Do you think they’d still want to be with me?”
Ah Qing listened to Fei Mo’s words solemnly. He could not help but feel sorry for Fei Mo. However, this was the burden the heir of the Fei family was born with.
The rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, obscuring the tall buildings outside.
“Ah Qing, sometimes I really wish that I’m just an ordinary man, working hard for my future and working hard to protect a love that belongs to me. A simple life…” A trace of weariness could be seen in Fei Mo’s eyes as he sighed helplessly. “Alas, that’s impossible since I’m Fei Mo of the Fei family.”
Ah Qing looked at the weary expression on Fei Mo’s face from the rearview mirror and felt sad. “However, young master, didn’t Yun Yiyi approach you because of your identity as well? She even prepared the contracts in advance…”
“It’s different… She doesn’t want me for my money…” Fei Mo looked at the torrential rain outside the window. When he spoke, his voice carried a hint of certainty.
“How can you be sure, young master?”
“If she’s after money and fame, she wouldn’t have openly stated she didn’t want any money from me. She even said there’s no need to waste money on a wedding banquet. Moreover, she has clearly stated there would be no physical relations between a husband and wife in our marriage. This means she has no intention of bearing my child. If it were another woman, she would not be able to wait to climb into my bed and get pregnant. With my child, she would be able to stabilize her position, after all… I can tell she doesn’t have any other ulterior motive. She only needed to get married urgently. As you know, because of grandfather, I need to get married urgently as well…”
Ah Qing persisted and said, “But… but this is her second marriage. She’s a divorcee…”
“So what if she’s a divorcee?” Fei Mo said indifferently, “I don’t mind.”
Ah Qing felt helpless upon hearing Fei Mo’s response. “You don’t mind, but your grandfather and the others will definitely mind…”
“They won’t,” Fei Mo said confidently, “They only care that I get married. As for who I marry, they don’t and won’t care.”
Ah Qing was originally very worried for his young master. However, upon hearing these words, he sighed in relief.
Soon after, Fei Mo’s gaze landed on the blue folder at the side, and he murmured, “Yun Yiyi is a very smart woman…” She had easily seen through him earlier. Such a smart person was definitely easier to get along with compared to a dull person.
Ah Qing was very surprised when he heard Fei Mo’s evaluation of Yun Yiyi. However, when he saw Fei Mo deep in his thoughts, he only kept quiet to avoid disturbing him. Regardless, he still felt it was a pity that the dignified president of Fei Corporation had to marry a divorcee. Moreover, the woman his young master married was also the ex-wife of the eldest young master of the Gu family. How would the public view his young master?
