Chapter 26
“Fu Lingye... does he know that Xiaohan is his son?”
Mu Tongrui''s hands were clenched uncontrobly.
Xiang Nanqian''s eyes drooped slightly, falling on her tense fists and she smiled slightly, “Lingye... of
course he knew that Xiaohan was our child. Dad is a conservative person who couldn''t take such a hit
so we tried to keep this as a secret. However, we have been looking for opportunities to rify this
matter with him. Dad has been searching suitors for Lingye for the past years. Lingye thought about
telling the truth to Dad but dare not do so.”
Fu Lingye asked Mu Tongrui to pretend to be his wife just to deal with Old Master Fu?
But since this was a fact, why did Fu Lingye propose a marriage just now?
Xiang Nanqian observed her words and actions. She smiled lightly, holding Mu Tongrui''s hands, and
said softly, “Tongrui, I heard Lingye talk about marrying you. I feel very sorry about this matter, and
very sorry for you. “
Mu Tongrui looked at her puzzledly, “Sorry for me?”
“A few days ago, Lingye brought you home just to provoke me. He said that if I keep backing down, he
will marry you for real. I knew that he still wants me to make a decision.”
“...”
So, Mu Tongrui was just a tool for Lingye to provoke Nanqian?
Even if Mu Tongrui knew that this was a trading game, she cooperated with Fu Lingye only to get back
the Mu family vi. But she wondered why she felt so unpleasant in her heart after learning about these
things from Xiang Nanqian.
Xiang Nanqian said, “Tongrui, you are still very young. You shouldn''t lose your lifelong happiness, it''s
not worth it. My rtionship with Lingye shouldn''t involve you.”
As soon as Mu Tongrui wanted to speak, her phone rang and the caller ID shown Ye Zibo.
Xiang Nanqian stared and paused for a moment upon seeing the caller ID.
Mu Tongrui knew Ye Zibo?
Mu Tongrui didn''t answer the call in front of Xiang Nanqian. Xiang Nanqian was smart enough to get up
and left the ward, “Get well soon.”
Mu Tongrui answered the phone after Xiang Nanqian left.
Ye Zibo asked eagerly, “Tongrui, where are you now?!”
Mu Tongrui was startled, “I, I''m in the hospital.”
“What? Are you sick?”
“I had a fever.”
“Which hospital are you in? I''ll be there right now!”
...
Fifteen minutester, Ye Zibo arrived at Mu Tongrui''s ward.
“Tongrui, what happenedst night...”
Thinking of the messy scene fromst night, Mu Tongrui immediately said, “We were all drunkst
night. But don''t worry, no hard feelings on me. We were not even doing anything.”
Ye Zibo stared at her slightly pale face. Her eyes were dim. He hesitated and asked, “Tongrui, you, are
you really my uncle''s wife?”
Mu Tongrui''s brows wrinkled and confused, “Your uncle? Your uncle is...”
“Fu Lingye is me and Guo''s uncle. Last night, he took you out from the bar. He also said that you are
his wife and Sweetheart''s mother. Tongrui... when did you know my uncle?”
Fu Lingye turned out to be Ye Zibo and Ye Guo''s uncle?
This fact fell as deep as a bomb and made a big mess in Mu Tongrui''s mind.
There was a rumbling in her mind and she didn''t know how to exin this to Ye Zibo, “Fu Lingye and I
are not what you imagined.”
Ye Zibo was also anxious, “Tongrui, what happened between you and my uncle? Did you agree to
marry him?”
“No, no...”
Ye Zibo asked further, “Then why did my uncle say you are his wife?”
Mu Tongrui scratched her forehead and couldn''t make up anymore. She had to tell the truth, “I am
making a deal with Fu Lingye. He helps me to get back Mu family vi. I need to pretend to be his wife
and deal with his family.”
“What?”
Ye Zibo was shocked but he still had a big relief. He said with a long sigh, “Well, it''s okay. You are just
acting. If both of you are really married, what should I do?”
“Huh?”
Ye Zibo stopped immediately, swallowed and said, “My uncle is our elder. If both of you are together,
wouldn''t it be a mess of generations? You are junior and Guo''s best friend, do you want me and Guo to
call you ''aunt'' in the future?”
Mu Tongrui bit her lips and pleaded, “But could you keep this matter as a secret for me temporary? In
case the Fu family knows about it...”
“Well, I will keep it as secret.”
Mu Tongrui nced at Ye Zibo and asked with some curiosity, “By the way, since Fu Lingye is your
uncle, you must have known Xiang Nanqian, right?”
“Yes, Xiang Nanqian is my aunt. My eldest uncle passed away too early and it was not easy for her to
take care of the child by herself.”
“Then... how did your uncle die?”
“He got into a car ident on the highway. Why?”
Mu Tongrui was startled and shook her head.
It seems that Xiang Nanqian was telling her the truth.
Fu Lingye still wanted to marry her. It was impossible for her to marry him!
When the contract ended, Mu Tongrui will terminate their rtionship and restore her freedom
immediately!
While she was thinking, Ye Zibo raised his eyes and saw she almostpleted the infusion. “It''s
almost finished, I''ll call the nurse to remove the bran for you.”
...
After the nurse removed the bran for Mu Tongrui, Ye Zibo said, “Where do you live now? Shall I
send you back?”

Mu Tongrui thought of Sweetheart and Fu Lingye in the children''s ward. It would seem rude to just
leave without saying goodbye.
“Well, I''ll go to the bathroom first. You can wait for me here.”
“Well, please go.”
...
In the corridor of the children''s ward.
“Lingye, are you still ming me for not taking care of Sweetheart?”
Fu Lingye put one hand in his pocket. His eyes were cold and calm, “Sister-inw, I didn''t mean to
me you. You don''t have to me yourself too.”
Xiang Nanqian frowned, “But your attitude towards me is so cold, Lingye. Your used to treat me better
than this...”
“Sister-inw, you have been overthinking.”
When Mu Tongrui walked to the area of the children''s ward, she raised her eyes and met Xiang
Nanqian who was not far away.
Xiang Nanqian was startled. When Fu Lingye was about to enter the ward, her hands suddenly hugged
his ran neck, “Ling Ye.”
She raised her head and kissed his thin lips, but Lingye''s reaction was quick. The kissnded on his
cheek when he turned his head away.
Xiang Nanqian''s nced through Fu Lingye''s shoulder and she looked at Mu Tongrui who was
stunned.
She became as nk as a piece of paper. After staying there for a few seconds, she turned around
and left quickly.
Fu Lingye pushed Nanqian away. His ck eyes were very cold. He bit his thin lips while staring at
Nanqian silently in anger.
In the ward, Sweetheart''s coquettish voice was heard, “Daddy! What are you doing? Sweetheart wants
to drink water!”
Fu Lingye put both his hands into his pockets. His eyes were cold and frosty. He turned around and
entered the ward.
Obviously, Fu Lingye was angry because of that kiss.
Mu Tongrui was startled and shook her head.
It seems that Xiang Nanqian was telling her the truth.
