Chapter 127: Chapter 127: She Has Someone She Likes

Qiao Yu huffed quietly, rose from his seat, picked up the already empty bowl in front of him, and turned to walk toward the kitchen, not forgetting to leave a remark for Fu Shinian as he left:

"If I were you, I wouldn’t want to have a child with you either."

Fu Shinian watched as Qiao Yu disappeared at the kitchen doorway, stunned and speechless until Qiao Yu came out again.

Seeing that Fu Shinian was still sitting in the same place, his posture unchanged, Qiao Yu eventually lost his patience:

"Look, Young Master Fu, staying here won’t solve anything, the issues between you two aren’t something that can be resolved by a few words from me. What you should do now is to go back home, make Su Mu have a meal, and have a proper talk with her. Seeing her today and going by my instincts, she won’t last much longer, two days and two nights without sleep, without food or drink, even Iron Man couldn’t endure that. To what extent do you plan to push her before you’re satisfied?"

Despite Qiao Yu’s words, Fu Shinian still showed no intention of leaving. Knowing what he was waiting for, Qiao Yu reluctantly sat down in front of him:

"To be honest, Su Mu didn’t really tell me anything. The moment she saw me, I knew she was disappointed. She has been waiting for you to return. I don’t know what it is she wants to tell you, but the problem has to be addressed, right? I always felt that you’ve slowly been developing feelings for Su Mu, but now I’m not so sure because no man who truly cares about his woman, would confine her like this, letting her starve and disregarding her."

"Yes, you came to me to ask, but I must say, what good does that do?"

Qiao Yu couldn’t help but blurt out a curse:

"Su Mu asked me why even I can see that she likes you, yet she has not been able to prove her genuine feelings to you in two years. I’m also curious, why don’t you trust Su Mu’s feelings for you? What else, besides love, do you think could be her reason for marrying you? The Su family’s hotels? She married you and hasn’t spent a dime of your money. The status of Mrs. Fu, a woman’s vanity? But she has been secretly married to you for two years, besides a few close people, who else knows she is legitimately Mrs. Fu?"

Fu Shinian was silent for a few seconds before he spoke:

"She has someone she likes."

"What?" Qiao Yu almost couldn’t believe his ears, "What did you say? Su Mu? She has someone she likes?"

Fu Shinian knew Qiao Yu didn’t believe him. Compared to his own explanations, he was more inclined towards his own feelings; he believed that Su Mu liked him, so he didn’t elaborate further, instead pulling out his phone and pulling up Su Mu’s Weibo to show to Qiao Yu. After scrolling through, Qiao Yu still didn’t understand:

"She definitely deeply cares about someone, but she never mentioned this person’s name from start to finish. How can you be so sure she’s not talking about you?"

"Her feelings for this person started 7 years ago; did she know me back then?"

Qiao Yu pursed his lips, "Maybe it’s just that you didn’t know about her, maybe she was secretly in love?"

Fu Shinian chuckled lightly, scrolling to another post to show Qiao Yu:

"What about this one? She said this person once saved her life at a crossroads, but I have absolutely no such memory."

"Could your memory be flawed?"

"I even remember what shape the birthmark on your butt is."

Qiao Yu: "..."

After getting to this point, Qiao Yu finally understood some things. It turned out, Fu Shinian’s hot-and-cold behavior towards Su Mu was just because of her ’inconstancy’. From Fu Shinian’s perspective, Qiao Yu did understand him, given that his aversion to infidelity was rooted deeply in his past parental issues — disloyalty, cheating, having someone else in the heart, all of which were his biggest taboos.

If it hadn’t been for Su Mu sharing the same blood type as the old lady, capable of saving her life in a critical moment, Qiao Yu really believed in what Ji Nanfeng said, that Fu Shinian might have divorced Su Mu long ago, instead of enduring till now.

However, Qiao Yu couldn’t believe that Su Mu was someone good at acting, or that she could have kept such a convincing act for two years, without any slip until now.

"I think there might be some misunderstanding."

Fu Shinian put away his phone and stood up from the seat, "It’s late; I’m going back."

Qiao Yu couldn’t wait for Fu Shinian to leave, but he feared that with such an emotional state, no issues would be resolved upon returning. He couldn’t help but say:

"If you really want a child, just talk about it properly with Su Mu, she’s a reasonable woman. Besides, I don’t think it’s that she doesn’t want to have children, it’s just not the right time. This kind of issue is something that needs communication between two people. Your forceful stance will only backfire. Even if your confinement does get Su Mu pregnant, do you think a child conceived in such circumstances will be healthy? You wouldn’t want your child to be born looking like a sad, little old man, right?"

"Whatever it is, go back and talk to Su Mu properly. Her body really can’t handle another day of this torment. You wouldn’t want to see her starved to death, right?"

Qiao Yu’s words caused Fu Shinian’s steps to briefly pause, but he left without saying anything in the end.

Qiao Yu stood watching the door close and sighed, utterly unsure what else he could possibly do now.

As Fu Shinian rode the elevator down, he pondered the words Qiao Yu had said to him; they weren’t the first to tell him that Su Mu truly loved him, even the old lady had mentioned it repeatedly. But if no one was deceiving him, if everyone was indeed telling the truth, then how should he interpret Su Mu’s Weibo posts?

Or could it be that her acting skills were so formidable that she managed to deceive everyone?

Fu Shinian asked himself if it hadn’t been for the posts he stumbled upon two years ago in her Weibo, he might have believed, like Qiao Yu, like the old lady, that everything Su Mu did stemmed from genuine feelings because, for the past two years, she really had been appealing to him, cautiously pleasing him.

Unfortunately, it was indeed an act.

After stepping into his car, Fu Shinian started the engine, turned on the heater, but didn’t drive off immediately. He sat quietly in the car, smoking a cigarette, staring at the dark night ahead, the thick emotions revealed in his inscrutable eyes, undecipherable to anyone.

Qiao Yu had said that he should have a proper talk with Su Mu, well, maybe, Fu Shinian thought so too, but he felt that they wouldn’t reach a resolution.
