Chapter 159: Chapter 159 All I Want Is You
Fu Shinian’s expression undoubtedly conveyed a message to Su Mu; he didn’t remember the events of the past at all.
A bitter smile appeared on Su Mu’s lips, exhaustion like never before:
"You once told me not to say ’like’ to you again, you said my liking you was an insult to you; hence, I never mentioned it again after that. This is the last time, even if you feel it’s an insult, bear with it for now. I’m not sure if I want to continue liking you."
"Because I could never have imagined that the man who saved me like a god would turn into what he is today. If I had known that things between us would turn out this way, I would rather never have met you, so you could have forever been the best person in my heart."
Instead of what he has become today.
Years of suppressed feelings were simply spoken out in a few light words, without Su Mu feeling anything. Suddenly, she didn’t understand why she hadn’t let him know before; sometimes, people are like that. Once grown up and looking back at their former selves, they just feel foolish.
Su Mu wanted to leave; she didn’t want to see whatever expression Fu Shinian might have. But before she could move, he grabbed her wrist, forcing her to face him:
"Do you mean that you saved Grandma and chose to marry me because I saved you, and everything you’ve done was just to repay me?"
There wasn’t anything she couldn’t admit or felt bad to acknowledge, and Su Mu nodded calmly:
"Yes, because you saved me, I liked you; because I liked you, I wanted to do something for you. Knowing how worried you were about Grandma, and since I share the same blood type as her, there was no reason for me not to step forward to solve your problem. Marrying you was just because I liked you and wanted to take good care of you. I thought it didn’t matter if you didn’t like me as long as I sincerely took care of you and Grandma. Someday, you would be moved by me, even if not to the same extent that I loved you, but at least a bit."
"But I was wrong. In two years, you’ve never looked back at me; you thought all my efforts had ulterior motives. What else could I ask from you? If I really wanted to gain something from being by your side, I would have succeeded long ago. And now, this predicament I’m in, all I’m asking for is your person."
"I overlooked one thing." Su Mu looked at Fu Shinian: "The human heart is the most unpredictable and the coldest."
Fu Shinian stared at Su Mu, not blinking:
"Why have you never told me any of this?"
"What’s the point of telling you? You don’t even remember the past events, and you might even think I made up this story for my own purposes." Su Mu gave a bitter smile: "Fu Shinian, you actually never trusted me."
No, it’s not the same.
If Su Mu had told Fu Shinian earlier, he wouldn’t have thought after seeing her Weibo that her heart completely belonged to someone else. He wouldn’t have given up on having a good life with her, wouldn’t have failed to treat her as his wife for two continuous years, wouldn’t have...
However, at this moment, anything Fu Shinian said was too late.
"So why are you saying this now... What’s it for?"
Fu Shinian might have known the reason, but he still asked. He simply refused to believe it, unwilling to accept that his obsession over the past two years was merely his own speculation.
Because of that one Weibo post, he didn’t believe Grandma’s eyes or Qiao Yu’s words; he only believed himself.
He wasn’t someone who couldn’t listen to others, but why had he stubbornly closed his eyes and ears in the case of Su Mu?
They say because one cares, one becomes angry; because one likes, one feels disappointed.
Perhaps his feelings for Su Mu were no longer the same as when they first met, but he continuously refused to face it or admit it.
Su Mu chuckled softly at the sound:
"Why? Maybe I’m just tired of it all. Fu Shinian, even though I still like you, at the end of the day, I’m just a woman."
Fu Shinian wanted to say something, but Su Mu already appeared extremely tired. Looking at him, she said gently:
"Today is Grandma’s birthday, let’s not continue on this topic. We won’t find an answer right now. Let’s go downstairs for now, lest we arouse Grandma’s suspicions."
After saying this, Su Mu released her wrist from Fu Shinian’s grasp and was the first to leave the room. Fu Shinian watched Su Mu’s departing figure, feeling a heaviness in his chest.
Seven years ago, he hadn’t saved her when her life was in danger, but she claimed it was true; so, who was her savior? If she realized that her feelings all these years were misdirected, if one day she found out who had actually saved her, then would everything he now had cease to exist?
Fu Shinian organized his thoughts and left the study only to find that Su Mu hadn’t actually gone downstairs; she was standing at the corner of the stairs on the second floor, seemingly waiting for him. Hearing the noise, she looked over faintly, withdrawing her gaze the moment she did, and only when Fu Shinian approached did she move to go downstairs.
Down in the dining room, everything was yet to start, seemingly waiting for them both. Grandma, seeing the two of them coming downstairs together, deepened her smile, admonishing Fu Shinian:
"I know you’re busy with work on regular days, but today is this old lady’s birthday; can’t you even grant this small request?"
Fu Shinian smiled lightly and admitted his fault:
"Grandma is right to scold me, it is my fault. I absolutely won’t work today; after dinner, I will have a good talk with you."
Grandma smiled satisfactorily:
"That’s all I need to hear, but I don’t really need your company. You should rather spend that time with Susu, take her out for a walk."
Fu Shinian glanced at Su Mu next to him and responded, "Okay."
As Su Mu was about to pull out a chair to sit, Fu Shinian was a step ahead of her. She looked at him sideways, puzzled by his sudden attentiveness, but it definitely wasn’t because of the conversation they had upstairs.
Grandma noticed their actions and smiled slightly:
"If you were nicer to Susu on regular days, she wouldn’t be surprised by you pulling out a chair now."
Su Mu came to her senses and was about to say something to Grandma when Fu Shinian beat her to it, replying effortlessly:
"Grandma is right, I’ll keep that in mind."
Perhaps to make Grandma happy, Su Mu didn’t express surprise any further. After all, Fu Shinian would do anything for Grandma.
Everyone sat down, Auntie Wang also set about preparing the meal, and Grandma was ready to say a few auspicious words to fit the occasion, but Shiyue beat her to it, looking worriedly at Fu Shinian:
"Brother, what happened to your face?"
