Chapter 382: Chapter 382: Lay It All Out

Su Mu listened to Fu Shinian’s words without making a sound, but it was Fu Shinian who, upon seeing Su Mu’s expression, slightly smiled:

"It appears I’ve not spoken amiss."

"So what if you’re right, what if you’re wrong?" Su Mu laughed softly, "Wen Han is a true gentleman, and I’m not a person to be taken lightly. Being cautious and careful with emotions is only proper. But you have to understand that Wen Han and I are in a legitimate boyfriend-girlfriend relationship now. Nothing real may have happened yet, but that doesn’t mean it won’t in the future. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, or perhaps it’ll happen over a drink—who knows?"

Fu Shinian admitted that Su Mu’s words unsettled him. In the past, he might have unabashedly showed it, but not anymore. After a few seconds of silence, he merely smiled and spoke softly:

"Don’t speak so definitively when things haven’t reached the end. Until the last second, no one knows who will ultimately stand by your side."

"Whoever it is, it won’t be you." Su Mu looked at him unblinkingly, without a hint of warmth, "What makes you so confident and bold to pursue me again? Do you mean to plot me as a living kidney source? But Mr. Fu, I’m no longer the foolish girl head over heels in love with you from three years ago. You might as well give up on that."

Su Mu’s words slightly shocked Fu Shinian. He looked at her for a few seconds, speechless, not understanding why she would suddenly bring up this topic with him, nor knowing when she’d discovered those absurd ideas of his.

Thinking carefully, the only people who knew of his thoughts were Ji Nanfeng and Qiao Yu. But how could they have told Su Mu about it? Or could it be that it was mentioned inadvertently and Su Mu happened to overhear?

"When did you find out?"

Su Mu’s lips curled coldly, "What? Shouldn’t I know? Maybe, if I hadn’t known about your real purpose for marrying me, I might have been fooled by you again. Perhaps I would have obediently gone home with you after our last conversation, right?"

"I didn’t..."

"Three years ago." Su Mu cut him off, "It was right in this place that I finally understood why you wouldn’t divorce me even after securing another kidney source. It’s because you were afraid. Afraid that your grandmother would leave you again due to kidney failure. So, you kept me as a backup, ready to lie on the operating table at any moment to give up a kidney to save grandma."

Fu Shinian looked at Su Mu without speaking. Although he desperately wanted to deny it, he found no words to refute her, because no matter what, in the very beginning of their marriage, this thought had indeed been real. If it weren’t for Su Mu’s kidney, he truly would have divorced her.

"Not just this, there’s something else you’ve hidden from me for years. Do you want to tell me all about it now?"

Su Mu’s gaze was full of mockery. Fu Shinian had a feeling, but when the words reached his lips, he didn’t know how to start. The accidents of today were too many, overwhelming him without warning, leaving him scrambling without even an extra word. Actually, even if he had been prepared, what could he say?

Everything had really happened.

"Since you already know, why do you need me to say it out loud?"

Su Mu let out a bitter laugh,

"I never thought the man I loved for so many years never treated me as a human being, never respected me, nor uttered a single truth to me. You’re a devil, who after buying my father’s kidney for 20 million, wanted me to be your back-up kidney source and kept this information completely blocked off from me, even ensuring that I was never told about the autopsy report that showed my father was in fact missing a kidney."

When Su Mu saw an extra 20 million appear in her mother’s bank account, transferred from her father’s account, she knew something was off. Yet her inquiries at the bank turned up nothing, and she thought of it as an unsolvable mystery until Wen Han found the answer through his connections.

When she learned the origin of that 20 million, Su Mu couldn’t believe what she was hearing, yet everything seemed so logically consistent that she could find no errors or loopholes.

When her father was driven to bankruptcy in the hotel and pressed for debts, he learned incidentally that his daughter was going to donate a kidney. He thought it was family pressure that brought this burden upon Su Mu. He was a loser, but even so, he hadn’t failed to the extent of forcing his daughter to sell her kidney for money. Out of concern for his daughter, his wife, and the inner turmoil he couldn’t bear, Su Mu’s father went to Fu Shinian and proposed a deal—his own kidney in place of his daughter’s, with no other demands than for Fu Shinian to help settle his debts.

million for a kidney seemed a good deal to Fu Shinian, so the trade was struck. But even Fu Shinian hadn’t expected that after the donation surgery, Su Mu’s father would choose to end his own life. Perhaps it was guilt, perhaps shock, such that his original plans to divorce were abandoned.

At that time, he was prepared to have a genuine life together with Su Mu, but then he saw her Weibo incidentally and learned of the ’lifesaver’s existence, knowing she always had someone else in her heart. The thought of spending a lifetime together gradually faded, but even so, he never considered divorce because of his grandmother.

Thinking about it, it wasn’t that he couldn’t find someone else with the same blood type to donate a kidney to his grandmother. As long as the money was right, nothing was impossible. He was well aware of this, but in the end, even though he knew there couldn’t be only one Su Mu to make this transaction with him, he still thoroughly suppressed the thought of divorce.

He had convinced himself throughout his entire marriage with the notion of needing her kidney source, but perhaps only Fu Shinian understood that underneath such a reason, there might still have been some emotion, which he, however, was unwilling to acknowledge.

Faced with Su Mu’s accusations, Fu Shinian could say nothing else and stood silently in place, watching her. He watched her scornful laugh, her reddening eyes, and her gaze, wishing never to see him again in this life:

"I really want to ask you, what were your feelings when you faced me? After buying my father’s kidney but still not intending to spare his daughter, keeping her by your side for a rainy day. Did you ever think of my father when you saw me? Or have you always been heartless, caring only about yourself, your grandmother, and the Fu family? Everything else, irrelevant."
