Chapter 301: Chapter 220: Did You Ever Like Me Before? _3

It’s truly ironic.

"Tang Xi—" From not far away, Gu Zhiyi called out to her as she came out with two children.

Tang Xi walked over and stood in front of Tangtang to embrace her daughter, shielding her face in her shoulder, and quickly walked away.

Fu Tingzhou watched her receding figure fade away, the man slowly sat down in the chair, his hand pressing against his forehead. A nameless emotion surged, bringing frustration and pain.

Ning Daisu approached with a gentle voice, "Tingzhou, let’s go to the café for some afternoon tea. I remember there’s one downstairs..."

"I’m still busy. If you want to go somewhere, I’ll have Shen Duan accompany you." Fu Tingzhou looked at the card on the table that Tang Xi hadn’t taken. He recalled the look in this woman’s eyes as if fine silver needles were piercing directly into his heart.

It’s indescribable, a sudden headache.

In the air, there seems to still linger a faint scent from that woman.

It seems to briefly soothe one’s emotions.

He picked up the card on the table, bypassed Ning Daisu and left directly.

Ning Daisu grabbed his arm, plaintively saying, "Tingzhou, today is my birthday... can’t you spend one day with me?"

"Ning Daisu, I don’t like people who cling and pester." Fu Tingzhou pulled his hand away, "If you want to buy something, just tell Shen Duan."

Watching the man’s back, Ning Daisu angrily stomped her foot.

She was not resigned.

She had been by this man’s side for four years, yet he never truly looked at her.

She knew she could not compare to that woman deep in Fu Tingzhou’s heart, but there was no news of that woman at all.

No one knew her name, where she was, or if she was still alive.

That woman, perhaps, didn’t even exist.

Perhaps, it was just a figment born of his amnesia.

That woman, she didn’t take to heart at all, never considering her a rival.

After all, old Mr.Fu supported her and she had been by Fu Tingzhou’s side for four years, understanding his preferences better than any woman. Who else, but herself, could match Fu Tingzhou?

Fu Tingzhou was always aloof; although many pursued him, he never paid them any attention.

Ning Daisu was the only woman who could get close to him, so she was always proud and considered herself to be Fu Tingzhou’s girlfriend behind his back.

Unexpectedly, an ex-wife now appeared.

And it was clear that Fu Tingzhou had a subtle affection for this ex-wife.

Ning Daisu was getting anxious, she took out her phone and called Ning Qian.

"Brother."

Listening to Ning Daisu’s crying, Ning Qian, who had always been affectionate to his sister, quickly soothed, "What’s the matter, Daisu?"

"Brother, today is my birthday, and Tingzhou didn’t spend it with me."

"I thought it was something serious. Mr. Fu is so busy, Daisu, you’re being unreasonable."

"Brother, why don’t you even support me? You lost your legs to save Tingzhou, and he promised to take care of me. But now in North Island, he didn’t even spend time with me... I’m just a common assistant, he usually takes Shen Duan for everything... Brother, can you please plead with Fu Tingzhou for me..."

On that end, Ning Qian fell silent for a few seconds before saying sternly, "Daisu, I did save Mr. Fu, but it was willingly. He had helped our Ning Family, and if not for his investment, Ning’s Jewelry Company would have probably gone bankrupt by now. I saved him without any coercion; this is not a tactic to blackmail him. I needed surgery back then, and knowing you had feelings for Tingzhou, I asked him to look after you, but we should not morally blackmail him with this. He owes us nothing."

Ning Daisu wasn’t expecting her brother to say this.

Biting her lip, she choked up in grievance, "But brother, it would be better for our Ning Family if I married Fu Tingzhou."

"Matters of the heart require mutual willingness; your unrequited love, what’s the point?" Ning Qian clearly understood his sister’s feelings towards Fu Tingzhou, but he also knew, with someone like Mr. Fu, how could he possibly fancy his sister.

As the saying goes in North City, the eligible ladies pursuing Fu Tingzhou are numerous, but not a single one caught his eye.

That his sister could stay by his side as an assistant for four years was only due to old Mr. Fu’s approval and because of his own legs.

"Daisu, be sensible, don’t cause trouble around Mr. Fu."

"Fine, brother, there’s nothing left to say." Ning Daisu hung up the call in frustration. If her own brother could not help, then she would have to rely on herself.
