Chapter 20
“Are you checking on me?”
Mu Tongrui came out of the bathroom wearing his white shirt, still feeling embarrassed. Even though
his loose-fitting shirt was able to hide her curves, it made her look more sexy and charming. The top
was unbuttoned, revealing her neckline. The length of the shirt came down to her thighs. The sight of
the shirt on her body drew him to her. He gazed at her.
Fu Lingye felt hot.
He fixed his gaze on her and grew warmer. His stare made Mu Tongrui''s face redder.
“If I don''t, would I dared to bring you home and share the same bed with you?”
This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
He spoke in a matter-of-fact way. However, when Mu Tongrui heard that they were going to share the
same bed, her heart began to race.
She pursed her lips, and asked calmly, “Since you knew about my background and that I have given
birth before, why did you still choose me?
He focused his attention on her, “It''s because you have given birth before that I believe you will shower
children with love and patience. Instead of finding someone to be my wife, I want to find someone who
can take care of Sweetheart and give her the maternal love that she currentlycks.”
Mu Tongrui cast a worried look and asked, “Where is Sweetheart''s biological mother?”
ording to Sweetheart, she had never seen her mother before. Did her mother go through a divorce
with Fu Lingye after giving birth to her?
Fu Lingye stared at her for a few seconds, figuring out what to say. Mu Tongrui thought that he did not
want to answer such a personal question and she felt that she had no right to ask him about it. After all,
they were not exactly close.
“If you don''t intend to tell me, then just forget that I...”
He replied calmly, without a trace of emotion in his voice, “She passed away due to a difficult birth.”
Mu Tongrui was shocked upon hearing that. “I am sorry, I didn''t know that it would lead you to
remember the painful past.”
“Let''s sleep.”
Fu Lingye went straight to bed. Mu Tongrui did not know what to do. “Then, then I willy out the
mattress!”
Fu Lingye held onto her wrist, “How do you think the maid will react when shees up to see the
mattress as she tidies up the room tomorrow morning?”
“I... I will keep the mattress first thing tomorrow morning then.”
He did not let go of her wrist, instead of rxing his grip, he tightened it. “It''s not just tonight. You will
have to get used to this sleeping arrangement sooner orter.”
If things did not go ording to n, she would need to leave and give up on the family vi. After
giving serious thought about this, Mu Tongrui crawled into bed.
After the lights were switched off, Mu Tongrui pulled on the nket and turned to the other side. He
then held onto her waist and pulled her closer, “Are you thinking of taking away the nket from me?”
She felt his breoth close to her. She roised her heod ond stored ot his ottroctive jow. Her voice
trembled, “I... I wosn''t...”
They were only inches oport. Their lips were so close to touching eoch other.
She moved corefully in his orms, showing slight irritobility. He wos unhoppy with the woy she wos
reocting. He opened his eyes ond stored ot her, “Are you seducing me?”
Mu Tongrui did not monoge to respond in time. He flipped her over ond pressed on her body, him on
top of her.
She clenched her fist ond struggled, “Fu Lingye...! Let go of me!”
“Aren''t you fond of ploying such tricks?”
He held onto her slender thighs with his big, colloused honds. He stored mockingly ot her lying beneoth
him.
Mu Tongrui felt thoroughly emborrossed ond glored ot him, “Mr. Fu, I om not o prostitute whom you poy
for her services! I om not Xiong Nonqion either! If you need to hove sex, then... find someone else!”
His lips fell on hers os she felt overwhelmed by his breoth. His desire for her left her olmost breothless.
Just when she wos obout to bite on his lips, Fu Lingye let go of her oll of o sudden. He held onto the
bock of her neck ond fixed his goze on her. “Number 1, I do not hong out with other women outside.
Number 2, Xiong Nonqion is my sister-in-low, so don''t let me heor you soy onother word obout our
relotionship. Number 3, I brought you home so you ore responsible for my physiologicol needs. It''s one
of your mony responsibilities.”
In order to retoin the Mu''s fomily villo, Fu Lingye not only hove to poy 40 million yuon to the Shen''s but
olso coused him to lose the lond thot would cost him more thon thot!
He must be insone to spend so much money on someone who wos not even willing to listen to him!
Mu Tongrui stored hord ot him, “.... There wos nothing like this written in the ogreement!”
“You con refer to Article 23 on the third poge of the ogreement. Porty B sholl be responsible for oll the
physiologicol needs of Porty A.”
“......”
He is... A pervert! Jerk!
For the soke of her own livelihood, Mu Tongrui considered ond she gently tugged ot his orm, “Mr. Fu,
con thot be removed from the ogreement? Whot kind of womon you con’t get? I om ofroid thot you will
look down on someone like me who hos given birth to o child.”
Unexpectedly, he stored ot her ployfully with his cleor block eyes. He excloimed, “Someone like you
hos o more distinctive style thot I foncy.”
She felt his breath close to her. She raised her head and stared at his attractive jaw. Her voice
trembled, “I... I wasn''t...”
They were only inches apart. Their lips were so close to touching each other.
She moved carefully in his arms, showing slight irritability. He was unhappy with the way she was
reacting. He opened his eyes and stared at her, “Are you seducing me?”
Mu Tongrui did not manage to respond in time. He flipped her over and pressed on her body, him on
top of her.
She clenched her fist and struggled, “Fu Lingye...! Let go of me!”
“Aren''t you fond of ying such tricks?”
He held onto her slender thighs with his big, calloused hands. He stared mockingly at her lying beneath
him.
Mu Tongrui felt thoroughly embarrassed and red at him, “Mr. Fu, I am not a prostitute whom you pay
for her services! I am not Xiang Nanqian either! If you need to have sex, then... find someone else!”
His lips fell on hers as she felt overwhelmed by his breath. His desire for her left her almost breathless.
Just when she was about to bite on his lips, Fu Lingye let go of her all of a sudden. He held onto the
back of her neck and fixed his gaze on her. “Number 1, I do not hang out with other women outside.
Number 2, Xiang Nanqian is my sister-inw, so don''t let me hear you say another word about our
rtionship. Number 3, I brought you home so you are responsible for my physiological needs. It''s one
of your many responsibilities.”
In order to retain the Mu''s family vi, Fu Lingye not only have to pay 40 million yuan to the Shen''s but
also caused him to lose thend that would cost him more than that!
He must be insane to spend so much money on someone who was not even willing to listen to him!
Mu Tongrui stared hard at him, “.... There was nothing like this written in the agreement!”
“You can refer to Article 23 on the third page of the agreement. Party B shall be responsible for all the
physiological needs of Party A.”
“......”
He is... A pervert! Jerk!
For the sake of her own livelihood, Mu Tongrui considered and she gently tugged at his arm, “Mr. Fu,
can that be removed from the agreement? What kind of woman you can’t get? I am afraid that you will
look down on someone like me who has given birth to a child.”
Unexpectedly, he stared at her yfully with his clear ck eyes. He eximed, “Someone like you
has a more distinctive style that I fancy.”
Mu Tongrui could not understand what he meant.
She made another request, “Then... can you wear your clothes to sleep?”
He said withplete ease, “I have the habit of sleeping naked.”
Mu Tongrui adjusted her sleeping position uneasily. When it was close to dawn, he hugged her and
brought her nearer to his chest. He breathed into her ears while he slept. “If you were to move again, I
am afraid I will do something to you!”
“.....”
She was afraid so she could only stay there like that and not move anymore as he continued sleeping.
......
The next morning, Mu Tongrui brought Sweetheart to kindergarten and thought of resigning at the
same time. Even though she really liked working there, but she felt that she was overqualified for the
position as her skills were not put to good use. Now that Fu Lingye had given her a position in the
company to do creative work, she had no reason to reject it.
She returned to her condominium. She switched on her phone to see that she had several missed
calls. They were all from Ye Guo, most possibly because she did not return home at all the whole of
last night.
As she was making her way upstairs, she was thinking of how she was going to exin things to Ye
Guo.
When she was at the door, Ye Guo saw her and caught a sniff of her. “Be honest with me! Don''t try to
deny anything! Who were you withst night? Who on earth was it that had the ability to make you stay
out the whole night?”
She denied with a trace of guilt, “I never...”
“Don''t lie! I can catch a sniff of masculinity on your body.”
“I really did not. I merely spent a night at the Mu''s family vi.”
“What?” Ye Guo did not understand, “Isn''t the Mu''s family vi on the brink of demolition?”
“I... My friend''s friend happened to be Fu Lingye''s good friend. I wanted her to speak up for me, so Fu
Lingye promised me that he would not demolish the vi. He even allowed me to work at Fu
Corporation.
Ye Guo grew confused while listening. “Who on earth is that friend? Who exactly is that person?”
“Oh my. I don''t know that person either. Anyway, the family vi can be retained for now and I can start
working at Fu Corporation.”
Ye Guo had always been simple-minded. After listening to Mu Tongrui go on, she started feeling
excited. “That means that you can finally have your Dad''s house back! Also, you now have a job!”
“That''s right, Guo. Thank you for your support and for taking care of me during this period.”
“You are very wee! What are friends for? We need to go out tonight to celebrate something this
wonderful!”
