Mr.CEO, Please Sign the Divorce Agreement -
Chapter 281 Warmth
Chapter 281: Chapter 281 Warmth
Neither of the two agreements was signed by Su Mu. When Lawyer Zhang began to speak, intending to persuade her, Su Mu interjected:
"Lawyer Zhang, I don’t mean to cause you any trouble with your work. I just have some things that I need to settle with Mr. Fu before signing, so I can’t sign this."
Having said that, Su Mu rose from her seat and promptly left the café. With no other choice, Lawyer Zhang had to call Song Yi to explain the situation. Song Yi, upon hearing the news, did not seem at all surprised, merely responding indifferently with a "Got it."
She was originally going straight to the hospital, but on the way, she received a call from Wei Shaoqin. His tone was urgent and worried:
"Su Mu, where are you right now? Jiang Bei said you were at home, so why is there no one there?"
"You’re back?"
"Yes, I came straight here after getting off the plane. I didn’t call you earlier because I was afraid you were resting. If you’re at home, open the door for me."
Wei Shaoqin’s words caused Su Mu, who was hailing a cab by the roadside, to slowly pause her actions:
"I’m not at home."
"Where are you then? I’ll come find you."
"No need, I’ll be going back soon."
Wei Shaoqin wasn’t reassured by Su Mu’s words and directly guessed, "Are you going to see Fu Shinian? I heard he’s been staying at the hospital with the old lady. I’ll head over to the hospital now. It’s fine if you’re not going to see him, but if you are, I must accompany you."
Su Mu sighed in resignation:
"Wei Shaoqin, this matter is between Fu Shinian and myself, neither you nor Xiaobei can meddle in it."
"I’m not trying to meddle." Wei Shaoqin said earnestly, "I just want to be with you, I don’t want you to be alone."
Perhaps this was the feeling of having friends by your side. In the frigid air and the noisy world, when unexpected changes caught her off guard, what of it? No matter what happened, beside her was Jiang Bei, who, no matter what others said, would always believe in her, and Wei Shaoqin, who could give up everything and rush back just to be with her.
That was enough.
Eventually, Su Mu disclosed her location to Wei Shaoqin, and soon his car came to a gentle stop in front of her. He hurriedly opened the door and got out, jogging over to open the car door for Su Mu:
"Get in quickly, it’s too cold today."
Su Mu got into the car, and Wei Shaoqin entered from the other side. He looked at her:
"Feeling warmer? I had the heater blasting on high since I was worried you’d be cold."
The temperature inside the car was indeed warm, and Su Mu felt a bit overheated after just a short time inside, which was much more comfortable than the outside air. However, Su Mu was genuinely worried that if she stepped out of such warmth, she would catch a cold:
"Turn it down a little, I’m dressed warmly, it’s okay. I don’t want to catch a cold when we get out later."
Upon hearing this, Wei Shaoqin lowered the temperature a bit:
"Don’t think that I’m doing this out of concern for you. I’m worried about my goddaughter in your belly. If you let her get sick, I’ll never let you hear the end of it."
Su Mu smiled faintly:
"How do you know she will be a daughter?"
"She told me in a dream," he replied.
Su Mu smiled and said no more.
Upon reaching the hospital, she hadn’t planned on taking Wei Shaoqin with her. But Wei Shaoqin simply didn’t trust her to meet Fu Shinian alone. Perhaps in Wei Shaoqin and Jiang Bei’s eyes, Fu Shinian might as well be a scumbag ready to act against her at any moment.
Su Mu had no choice but to bring Wei Shaoqin along with her.
However, Su Mu seemed to have forgotten that the top floor private ward of the Fu family at the hospital was no longer accessible to her. The men in black at the elevator entrance stopped her, apologizing as they spoke:
"Madam, you can’t go in."
Wei Shaoqin didn’t know what had happened between Su Mu and Fu Shinian, but it seemed he had guessed quite a bit. Not possessing Su Mu’s good temper, he immediately grew angry and sneered at the men in black:
"Since you address her as ’Madam,’ you should know her status. How dare you stop her?"
"It’s Mr. Fu’s order. We are just following commands."
Wei Shaoqin wanted to argue further, but Su Mu stopped him. She smiled faintly:
"He’s right. Fu Shinian indeed said that I shouldn’t come up anymore."
"What gives him the right? You’re not divorced yet, you are still part of the Fu family. What reason does he have to stop you?"
Su Mu ignored Wei Shaoqin’s words. Whether Fu Shinian had a reason or not, he had already taken action. However, Su Mu was determined to see Fu Shinian today. She knew that continuing to talk to the men in black was completely useless. As they said, they were just following orders.
She took out her phone and dialed Fu Shinian’s number. She wasn’t sure he would answer, but to her surprise, he did:
"What is it?"
"I’m at the elevator entrance. I need to talk to you," Su Mu stated her purpose, adding, "It won’t take much of your time."
Fu Shinian was silent for a few seconds on the other end before hanging up the phone. Su Mu thought he was refusing to give her the chance to see him. But before she could put away her phone, Song Yi came out of one of the wards. He saw Su Mu and Wei Shaoqin standing at the elevator entrance and walked over:
"Madam, Mr. Fu invites you in."
Su Mu was somewhat surprised, but she wouldn’t refuse. She nodded slightly and walked forward. Wei Shaoqin also wanted to follow, but Song Yi stopped him:
"Mr. Wei, you can’t go over there."
"Why not? I came with Su Mu. I want to go in with her. What if Fu Shinian lays a hand on her later? I need to be there to help."
Song Yi seemed helpless but still tried to persuade him:
"You can be assured, no matter what, Mr. Fu won’t lay a hand on Madam."
"That’s not certain. He even rejected his own child, didn’t he?"
Song Yi wanted to say something in defense of Fu Shinian but realized Wei Shaoqin wasn’t entirely wrong. He opened his mouth, but ultimately no sound came out. Wei Shaoqin insisted, and Song Yi found it difficult to take a stand until Su Mu, who was ahead, turned around upon hearing them:
"Wei Shaoqin, wait for me here."
"But..."
"No buts. He won’t do anything to me."
With Su Mu speaking, Wei Shaoqin found it hard to insist further. He only cautioned her to scream if anything happened, assuring her that he would risk everything to come to her aid.
As ridiculous as his words sounded, Su Mu found them heartwarming to hear. After all, no one can resist the sincere concern others show for them.
Song Yi let Su Mu into the ward and then quietly closed the door behind him as he left. Su Mu stood at the doorway, scanning the entire ward, yet she could not see Fu Shinian. Just as she hesitated about whether to call Song Yi back to ask something, the bathroom door opened, and Fu Shinian stepped out.
He was dressed in a black shirt and black trousers, looking even colder than usual. He looked at Su Mu and spoke in a cold voice:
"You wanted to see me about something?"
