Chapter 556: Chapter 556: Concealed for Many Days, Discovering the Truth

This evening, Su Mu did not sleep soundly, always worried about Fu Shiyue’s matters, but even so, when she woke up, Fu Shinian was no longer by her side. However, Qiqi hadn’t gotten up yet, and Su Mu gave a slight smile, checking the time - it was just past 6 o’clock. She was no longer sleepy and cautiously got out of bed from under the covers.

Fu Shinian was not in the study. As Su Mu was about to go downstairs to look for him, she heard the conversation between Fu Shinian and Fu Shiyue at the staircase:

"Getting bold, eh? Even learned to drown sorrows in drink."

Fu Shiyue might have just woken up, her voice raspy and a bit deep: "Brother, I won’t dare to do it again."

"Tell me, what happened?"

Fu Shiyue was silent for a long time: "It’s nothing, just feeling down."

"Not telling?"

"It’s not that I won’t tell, there really is nothing wrong. Otherwise, you can ask your sister-in-law. I’m with her all the time, she knows everything about me."

"You don’t need to use Susu to pressurize me. I know she must have agreed to something for you. You also know she doesn’t like to break her promises, that’s why you dare to be so rampant. But Fu Shiyue, you should know my capabilities. There’s nothing I want to know that I can’t find out. I’m giving you a chance, will you tell me yourself, or should I find out on my own?"

Su Mu listened for a while, not catching the end of the conversation because it was all not very important. She turned around and went back to her room. When she came out of the bathroom, Qiqi had also opened her eyes and saw Su Mu, giving her a slight smile:

"Mu, good morning~"

"Morning."

"You woke up so early today."

"Hmm, couldn’t sleep so I got up," she said as she walked over to Qiqi, intending to wake her up, but just as she was getting closer, Fu Shinian pushed the door open and saw both women awake, slightly furrowing his brows. He looked at Su Mu: "Why didn’t you sleep a bit longer?"

"Couldn’t sleep once I woke up."

As she spoke, she began instructing Qiqi to get out of bed and dress, but Qiqi had just crawled out from the covers when Fu Shinian picked up Qiqi’s clothes, preparing to dress her. Su Mu looked at Fu Shinian:

"You should let her do it herself."

"Qiqi is a girl, there’s no need to be so strict, and I also enjoy taking care of her like this," Fu Shinian looked up at Su Mu, "I would enjoy taking care of you too, if only you give me the chance."

Su Mu knew that anything she said would be in vain, helplessly shook her head, and stopped interfering.

After Fu Shinian had helped Qiqi with her washing up, the little girl ran straight downstairs to find the grandma. Su Mu was tidying up the bed; perhaps because she got up too early, she couldn’t help but yawn. Fu Shinian walked over and took over the task from her hands:

"Sure you don’t want to sleep a bit more?"

"No need to sleep now, there’s not much time left. I still have to go to the studio."

Fu Shinian looked at her sympathetically, in the end, he didn’t say anything further. Meanwhile, Su Mu sat down on a nearby sofa and watched him busying about, she opened her mouth to speak: "What did Shiyue say?"

"Didn’t you hear just now?"

Regarding the fact that he knew she had been eavesdropping earlier, Su Mu was not surprised, she smiled slightly: "Since you know I was eavesdropping, then you also should know that I didn’t hear the end."

"Hmm," Fu Shinian finished tidying the bed and turned to look at Su Mu: "Actually, when you were listening, we were pretty much done talking. She still hasn’t told me who that man is."

Su Mu looked at Fu Shinian and did not speak; Fu Shinian slightly smiled:

"Or is it that you want to tell me who he really is?"

"I promised Shiyue, I won’t say," she replied.

"Hmm, so I didn’t force you."

Fu Shinian smiled and walked over to hold Su Mu’s hand: "Let’s go downstairs for a meal."

Su Mu followed Fu Shinian to stand up and go downstairs, but just as they were leaving the master bedroom, she suddenly stopped. Fu Shinian, not understanding why, looked back at her: "What’s wrong?"

"I can’t tell you who it is, but I think that person isn’t bad, and they have decent character. Wei Shaoqin has recently gotten close to him, so you don’t need to worry that Shiyue will be wronged. After Shiyue confessed, he clearly rejected her, saying he would never accept Shiyue, which is why she’s so heartbroken."

Fu Shinian nodded and gently stroked her hand:

"I understand now."

Fu Shinian originally told Shiyue that if she didn’t reveal the name, he would investigate himself. However, that was just a saying. It’s normal for a girl to have a romantic relationship, and even though he is her brother, he can’t interfere too much. Now that Su Mu has explained it this way, it seems there’s even less to worry about, so he let it be.

But nobody expected that in the following days, not only did Shiyue not come out of this mood, but she also escalated things by disappearing.

When Fu Shinian learned of this, he initially didn’t plan to intervene. After all, Shiyue wasn’t a child anymore, and it was understandable that she went out to clear her mind and didn’t want people to know. But when her phone was off and she couldn’t be found for four days straight, Fu Shinian got quite angry and sent Song Yi to investigate where Shiyue had gone and instructed him to bring her back.

Song Yi’s investigation results came out quickly, and when reporting to Fu Shinian, he shared his thoughts:

"Shiyue didn’t go anywhere special, just walked around other cities nearby and would leave after staying a day or two."

"Where is she now?"

"In Jiangcheng City."

"Bring her back."

Song Yi responded affirmatively: "Mr. Fu, I think there might be some trouble with Shiyue’s situation this time."

Fu Shinian looked up at Song Yi: "What do you mean?"

"I always felt like she was tracking someone, so I checked the guest registry of the hotels she stayed at and found another person."

Fu Shinian didn’t say anything, and Song Yi felt a bit chilly, but the matter had reached this point. Hiding it wasn’t possible, Fu Shinian would know about it today or tomorrow; it was just a matter of time.

"I found another person who stayed at the hotel with Shiyue, Yu Qingzhou."

Fu Shinian furrowed his brows: "Who did you say?"

"Yu Qingzhou."

Fu Shinian was silent for quite a while, sitting in front of his desk and quickly went through the sequence of events, considering that the only possibility was that the person Shiyue fell for was Yu Qingzhou, but they...Fu Shinian felt a headache coming on.

After a moment of silence, he stood up directly, picked up his coat from the back of his chair, and walked straight towards the door:

"I won’t be in the office this afternoon, call me if anything comes up."

Song Yi: "Yes."

Fu Shinian didn’t go elsewhere, he drove straight to Su Mu’s studio. Su Mu wasn’t working today; when Fu Shinian arrived, she was sketching a picture, planning to achieve such an effect in an upcoming shoot. Because she was so focused, she didn’t notice Fu Shinian approaching.

She heard the noise but thought it was Lin Ning, so she called out:

"Lin Ning, can you bring me a glass of water?"
