Mo Rao replied coldly, “President Fu, please don’t make our relationship sound so ambiguous. I have nothing to do with you now.”
Fu Ying’s gaze darkened. He didn’t like Mo Rao disassociating herself from him.
But he endured it. Now, he had to accommodate her and get closer to her in a way she could tolerate. He had done so much to win her back, but things always ended up backfiring.
“Although we’re divorced, you’ve lived in the Fu family’s home for so many years. We can be considered siblings,” Fu Ying replied slowly. “You can’t deny this. Even if you deny it, Grandma won’t agree.”
Mo Rao was speechless. Why was Fu Ying always able to take advantage of her weakness?
Indeed, she and Fu Ying weren’t related by blood, but it was impossible to say that they had nothing to do with each other at all. In the past, she had even promised Old Madam Fu and the others that even if they got a divorce, she would still treat them as family.
“So?” Mo Rao glared at Fu Ying. “You came here to tell me this? Is it very important?”
“Yes, it’s very important.” Fu Ying stared at the face he yearned for as he said calmly, “I’ve thought about it these days. Because I couldn’t let go of you, I caused you trouble. My original intention wasn’t to let you stay away from me, but I hoped that you could talk to me and have a meal with me, so I won’t do that in the future. In the future, I’ll be your brother in name.”
Mo Rao froze. Fu Ying’s words were so untrustworthy.
If he could really interact with her as a sibling in name, it would indeed be much better for Mo Rao. At least she didn’t have to worry about Fu Ying doing anything out of line again.
“Fu Ying, you’re trying to lie to me again!” Mo Rao’s first reaction was that this man was lying to her.
“No, I admit that I still want to woo you back, but compared to watching you leave me step by step, I’d rather be your brother. At least I have an identity to accompany you. Raorao, don’t be in a hurry to reject me. You can consider it.” Fu Ying revealed a bitter expression. “I’m sincere.”
He was a very arrogant and cold person who rarely revealed his vulnerability in front of others. Now, he looked very sincere and hurt.
The man who was high and mighty in others’ eyes seemed like an injured little beast in front of Mo Rao while revealing his true feelings.
Mo Rao was silent. She knew Fu Ying better and could naturally tell that Fu Ying wasn’t acting.
Could it be that he had really gotten over it?
“Rao Rao, I was too much of a bastard in the past. In the future, let me make it up to you as your brother. Perhaps one day, when I’ve made it up enough, I can really let go and accept others again. I won’t let Grandma and the others worry about having no descendants.” Fu Ying’s gaze was sincere and melancholic, making Mo Rao feel anguished.
That was right. If Fu Ying couldn’t let go of her, he wouldn’t be able to find another woman. Then, he wouldn’t be able to have children and the Fu family wouldn’t have any descendants.
Grandma was already so old. She must be looking forward to having great-grandchildren.
Mo Rao bit her lip, feeling very conflicted. Should she trust Fu Ying again?
“Can you bear to let me be single for the rest of my life? No one will inherit the Fu family’s business in the future,” Fu Ying saw that Mo Rao was wavering and immediately leveled up his game.
Mo Rao was a soft-hearted and filial person. She definitely wouldn’t bear to see her grandmother disappointed and sad.
Fu Ying was the only heir of the Fu family. It would be unimaginable if he stayed single for the rest of his life.
For the sake of Grandma, Uncle, and Auntie, she would give Fu Ying another chance. Mo Rao finally relented. “Are you sure you will only treat me as a sibling?”
“I’m sure. If I do anything overboard, you can remind me at any time and I’ll change my ways.” Fu Ying had already thought of an excuse for some intimate actions he would do next. “Sometimes, I can’t help but forget my identity. I’ll slowly adapt.”
Mo Rao hesitated for a moment and nodded. “Alright, I’ll believe you again.”
She had been deceived time and time again. Rao Rao was too easy to deceive. He couldn’t let her fall into the hands of another man, or she would be exploited.
He should be the one to raise such an innocent and cute little rabbit.
“Thank you.” Fu Ying heaved a sigh of relief and a happy expression appeared on his face as he stood up and opened his arms. “It’s not too much to hug you as your brother and celebrate our good start, right?”
Mo Rao nodded hesitantly. “Okay.”
Fu Ying smiled and walked over to hug this woman he had been thinking about day and night. She smelled so good and felt so soft.
