No one liked to be schemed against, especially someone of Fu Siye’s status.
Previously, he had treated Shangguan Yu as a trusted sister and doted on her, but she had schemed against him and climbed into his bed. She even made her grandfather use the fact that he had saved his life to force him to marry her.
He could not tolerate his life being plotted against and him being forced. Hence, he had never wanted this marriage. He had always wanted her to leave on her own. It had always been bad for her, but now that she wanted to leave, he really did not want it.
He knew that he was being very contradictory, but a person was not a blade of grass or a tree. In the six years of their married life, she was the only one with him. He had long gotten used to her existence, and he could not accept that thought of her belonging to another man and could not tolerate others touching her.
However, just like now, she was scheming to test him and get his love. It made him feel that if he continued to want this marriage, he would completely lose to her and be plotted against for the rest of his life.
He was indignant.
Unwilling to admit defeat, he was tricked by her just like that.
Hence, this was a difficult question for him to answer.
He looked at Shangguan Yu, his eyes full of disgust as he said, “Shangguan Yu, stop trying to test me! Don’t play such a trick! You’ll only make me hate you!”
Shangguan Yu’s heart, which had long become invincible, was still hurt at this moment.
She only wanted to get a clear understanding of his heart and what he wanted, but he felt that she was playing tricks.
Initially, she wanted to say that since he hated her so much, he should give her a quick death and then they could go their separate ways.
However, Fu Siye, who seemed to have seen through what she wanted to say, turned around and left first. “When I come back tonight, I’ll give you the answer.”
He needed time to make a decision.
Shangguan Yu did not chase after him, because she knew that even if she did, she would not be able to get anything out of him. If he asked her to wait for a day, she would wait for a day.
…
Because Ling Xiao was going to school, Xue Yun couldn’t keep going to Yun Cheng. Hence, she wanted to bring Xue Hua to the Imperial Capital for a few days.
Mu Huan could tell that her granny wanted to see her daughter’s living environment in the Imperial Capital, so she sent them off.
At noon, it was snowing heavily. It was still snowing heavily even after school ended in the afternoon. Due to the bad weather, the road was blocked.
It usually took Mu Huan only about ten minutes to get from school to the Bo family’s house. However, she had already been stuck in traffic for half an hour. When she looked at the GPS, she saw that the traffic ahead was getting worse. She, who was in a hurry to go home and prepare dinner for Bo Junyan, got out of the car and planned to walk through the park opposite to go home.
It would take at most fifteen minutes to walk back from here.
After a day of heavy snowfall, the park had turned into a world of silver. When she stepped on the thick layer of snow, the crunching sound was especially refreshing.
When she heard the sound of footsteps approaching her quickly, Mu Huan instinctively turned around to see who it was. However, the other party’s speed was even faster than her turning back. Before she could see clearly who it was, she was pulled against a firm chest.
That familiar aura made the danger she had felt earlier disappear completely.
She reached out to hug his waist and lifted her head. “Didn’t you say that you have a meeting and can only go home later?”
He suddenly appeared behind her.
“I’m done with work.” Meeting her eyes that only had him in them, Bo Junyan lowered his head and kissed her.
After a while…
“The details of the cooperation with NST have been finalized. The research lab will start being built tomorrow, and it will be ready in about three months. Also…”
