Mo Rao could feel Fu Ying’s anger. He wasn’t an easygoing person in the first place. Whenever he was angry, the atmosphere would tense up.
But he had asked for this. She had loved him so much in the past and was willing to give up on herself for him. At that time, he had chosen to protect another woman. Why did he regret it now?
There was no medicine for regret in this world.
Mo Rao tried her best to calm down, then she looked up into Fu Ying’s eyes fearlessly. “Fu Ying, let’s let go of each other. You don’t lack women. It’s just that I loved you too much previously and you took my feelings for granted. Now that I suddenly retracted my feelings for you, you’re unwilling to accept it. How can a man like you accept being dumped by a woman?”
When Fu Ying heard these words, his expression turned livid.
“But think about it. Did I really abandon you?” Mo Rao smiled mockingly. “To be precise, you abandoned me first. You were the one who protected Qu Ru time and time again and chose to stand on her side, so don’t feel indignant. In the end, you won.”
Fu Ying grabbed Mo Rao’s hand and approached her as he said in anguish, “What do you mean I won? I’ve already lost you. How did I win?”
Mo Rao’s heart ached. It was a lie to say that she had no feelings for Fu Ying anymore. Whether it was love or hate, it was a form of emotion. She could only say that she had given up.
Even though she had let go, she couldn’t face him every day and listen to him repent.
“Fu Ying, let’s not talk about this anymore. The matter is already in the past. Let’s look forward and live our own lives.” Mo Rao said to Fu Ying seriously, “I can promise you that when we go to the Fu family in the future, I won’t deliberately avoid you. We can greet each other and eat together. Didn’t you say that we’re still siblings? Then treat us as siblings, okay?”
It was fine as long as he didn’t treat her as a lover.
“No!” Fu Ying rejected immediately. He couldn’t be siblings with Mo Rao. They could only be lovers.
“It’s okay. You’ll get over it slowly.” Mo Rao broke free from Fu Ying’s hand and forced a smile. “Let’s not talk about anything else. Just treat it as letting me off for the sake of those two poor children.”
These simple words made Fu Ying feel like he had been struck by lightning. If they were still around…
Mo Rao turned around and returned to the ward. She didn’t want to continue arguing with Fu Ying.
As she was lying on the bed, her tears couldn’t help but flow. Mo Rao wiped them, but she couldn’t stop shedding tears.
In the end, even the nurse was woken up by the suppressed sobbing and she glanced at the bed. Mo Rao was under the blanket, and the blanket was clearly trembling. She was probably crying.
What was wrong with her? The nurse didn’t dare to ask and could only listen silently.
Fu Ying stayed alone in the stairwell for a long time. He felt very cold, as if he had been buried under a layer of ice. His limbs were already numb.
After a long time, he slowly left.
When Mo Yuan came to the hospital the next day, he realized that Mo Rao seemed to be in a gloomy mood. She lay on the bed silently. When he asked her, she only said that she was very tired and wanted to rest.
The nurse secretly pulled Mo Yuan out of the ward and told him about Mo Rao crying last night.
Mo Yuan frowned. What had happened for Mo Rao to be so sad?
Could it be because of Fu Ying? But Fu Ying hadn’t seen her for the past few days since he kept him out.
“I understand. Thank you,” Mo Yuan replied solemnly.
With that, he returned to the ward and sat beside Mo Rao. “Rao Rao, Shen Feng gave me a piece of news. He said that Qu Ru has returned to the Qu family.”
“What?” Mo Rao was shocked. “She went back to the Qu family? Didn’t they say that she was…”
She didn’t say the rest.
If Fu Ying hadn’t personally told her yesterday that Qu Ru was under house arrest in the villa and had her legs broken and face disfigured, she would have thought that Qu Ru was living a good life now.
Back then, Fu Ying had broken her heart for Qu Ru. After the two of them got a divorce, Fu Ying should have gotten together with Qu Ru. Otherwise, how could it be worth all his efforts?
“What?” Mo Yuan was a little suspicious. “What do you mean? What do you know?”
She couldn’t let Mo Yuan know that Fu Ying had come last night. Otherwise, he would definitely be so angry that he would fight Fu Ying.
“It’s okay. When I celebrated Fu Ying’s birthday previously, he told me that Qu Ru was placed under house arrest by him.” Mo Rao could only change the timing.
