Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Chapter 278

Mu Tongrui commented on a lot of things whilst leaning against his shoulders.

Fu Lingye just kept quiet the whole time.

Mu Tongrui pinched his cheeks curiously and asked, “Lingye, why are you ignoring me?”

Fu Lingye avoided her questions and instead asked, “Are you cold?”

Mu Tongrui shook her head, “No, I'm not.”

She reached out for some snowflakes and placed her cold hand mischievously onto Fu Lingye's neck.

Mu Tongrui laughed and said, “Are you cold?”

Fu Lingye tightened his embrace and held onto her firmly. “Cheeky girl,” he replied fondly.

Mu Tongrui dusted away the snowflakes that had fallen onto his hair and said, “Lingye, your hair is allwhite now.”

The only reaction from the man was a lukewarm acknowledgment.

Mu Tongrui said in his ear, “I heard that couples whose head got covered in snow during the firstsnowfall will stay together forever. But sometimes I will think that since you are older than me by 8years, will you leave me first when we grow old? By that time, I think I will feel very lonely andhelpless.”

Fu Lingye paused in his footsteps and looked at the woman on his shoulders. “I won't leave youbehind,” he gave her his word.

He was serious.

Mu Tongrui didn't notice. Her imagination was running wild as she said, “You must keep your promisethen. If you leave first, I will replace another person to keep me company!”

“If I really were to die before you, I will surely take you with me before I die.”

“Fu Lingye, you are relentless. I suddenly regret marrying you.”

“You are so dumb. You will surely get bullied if I were to leave you alone. This is for your own good.”

Mu Tongrui leaned against his shoulders and stared at his handsome face. A sweet smile appeared onher face for no reason whatsoever.

...

It was already 7 P.M. when they returned to Repulse Bay Villa. The roofs outside were covered in a thinsheet of white snow.

Mu Tongrui took the initiative to ask, “Do I have to eat wormwood boiled egg tonight? I'm feeling a littletired. I want to take a bath and go to bed after eating.”

Fu Lingye's eyes dimmed as he said, “It's fine if you skip it for one day. The doctor had said that yourcondition is fine. Go and take a bath and go to bed.”

Maybe Fu Lingye was too good at hiding, or maybe Mu Tongrui trusted him too much. She didn'tsuspect a thing.

“Then I won't be eating it anymore. I'm going to shower.”

“Ok.”

After Mu Tongrui showered, she went straight to bed while Fu Lingye went to his study to do somework. Mu Tongrui fell asleep after a short while.

Fu Lingye gave Xu Kun a call in the study room.

“Please arrange a time for abortion this week.”

After hanging up the call, Fu Lingye stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and stared at thedescending snowflakes, his eyes full of sorrow.

...

Mu Tongrui vaguely heard Fu Lingye calling her.

“Babe?”

Mu Tongrui frowned and felt something tickling her face. She pushed the face away and said,“En...don't disturb me...I still want to sleep...”

The man was kissing her all over her face and lips.

Mu Tongrui was kissed till she had difficulty breathing. She opened her eyes widely.

“Mmm...”

She pushed him away.

The man in front of her looked at her tenderly and said, “Good morning.”

Mu Tongrui shuddered, goosebumps crawling all over.

Wait a second...what did Fu Lingye call her just now? Was it Babe?

This, this, this...this is not Fu Lingye!

“You, you, which personality are you?”

This also wasn't Fu Xiao. Fu Xiao wouldn't call her babe, or treat her so gently.

He pulled her into his embrace, stared at her lovingly, and said, “I'm Fu Ziye; you can call me Ziye. Ofcourse, I'd be really happy if you can call me Ye.”

“...”

Mu Tongrui's mouth twitched, goosebumps crawling all over.

“Fu...Fu Ziye?”

“We, we met before!” Mu Tongrui remembered.

Fu Ziye smiled. They had met more than once.

However, she had done a really good job considering that she could even remember that they had metbefore.

Mu Tongrui got up, stared at him, and said, “Back in S City, the man who called me Babe, was it you?”

“That's me,” Fu Ziye said magnanimously.

He would close in on her every time she moved backward, up till Mu Tongrui almost fell down from thebed. Fu Ziye immediately caught hold of her slim waist and pulled her back up.

“Am I that scary that you have to stay so far away from me?”

Mu Tongrui couldn't get used to it. Although the person in front of her shared the same body as FuLingye, and in some sense, Fu Ziye is Fu Lingye, but Mu Tongrui couldn't get over herself. She pushedhim away gently and said, “You, you stay away from me. Stop fooling around.”

It looks like this Fu Ziye is more mellow than Fu Xiao. However, since Mu Tongrui still wasn't familiarwith him, she wasn't sure how to get along with him.

She lifted her quilt and quickly got down from the bed. But Fu Ziye would follow her wherever she goes.

Mu Tongrui wasn't able to call Jiang Xinghe under his constant supervision.

Mu Tongrui had been pacing around the house for about half an hour. She was stressed out and said,“Please, I beg you, stop following me around.”

Fu Ziye closed in on her and said in a hurtful tone, “Are you trying to call the doctor and imprison me?”

“...”

Mu Tongrui was shocked, “How, how did you know? No, of course not!”

Fu Ziye held onto her hand and said, “Please don't kill me ok? I just want to stay with you.”

Mu Tongrui was speechless.

This Fu Ziye was so different from Fu Lingye and Fu Xiao.

He was so gentle!

If Fu Xiao were to replace out she is going to look for Jiang Xinghe, he will surely tie her up. But this FuZiye is looking at her pleadingly.

Mu Tongrui bit her lip, took a deep breath, and said, “I, I cannot make the call, but...can you tell me,how did you come out?”

“I will come out whenever Fu Lingye feels extremely sad.”

Feels extremely sad?

But Fu Lingye was still okay yesterday.

“Lingye was really normal yesterday. Also, his mood was very good back at S City.”

“I don't know what happened yesterday, but back at S City, I came out because he saw the burn markon his right arm when he was bathing. He was very curious about the burn mark and I appeared, drivenby his subconscious mind,” Fu Ziye explained.

Mu Tongrui frowned, “Burn mark? What does Fu Lingye's burn mark have anything to do with you?”

Fu Ziye suddenly stared at her and said, “We've met more than once; in fact, we've met three timesbefore.”

“What did you say?”

“We first met when you were fourteen.”
