Chapter 73
At the CEO''s office.
Xu Kun touched his nose, hesitating. So, Fu Lingye shot him a cold look. “Say it.”
“I heard that Ms. Xiang asked Miss Mu to send the documents to the 20th floor, but now the lifts in the
entire building are under maintenance. When I went to check the surveince footage to find the
employees who were gossiping about Miss Mu just now, I saw Miss Mu walking down the stairs
carrying a pile of documents, looking particrly pale.”
Fu Lingye paused his movement, and raised his brows, without much emotion on his face. He didn''t
mean to go and help Mu Tongrui.
This woman has been in a stalemate with me sincest night. If she shows the white feather, she won''t
even need toe to work today. I was toughst night, so of course, she will feel weak today. Yet,
she is now made to run up and down the stairs by Xiang Nanqian, still, she didn''te to me for help.
I''m really curious to see how long she can remain stubborn.
This morning, if it wasn''t for him who ordered her to get into his lift, not only would she bete for work,
but also unable to squeeze into the lift today.
Seeing the boss say nothing for a while, Xu Kun tentatively said, “I think Miss Mu is not feeling well
today. If she really passes out on the stairway, I''m afraid the Fu Corporation will make headlines in the
Bei City news tomorrow morning.”
Xu Kun had even thought of the headline, which was ''Fu Corporation employee fainted on the stairway
due to overwork''. These media that loved exaggeration might evene up with a more exaggerated
headline.
Fu Lingye looked up slowly. “It looks like you really want to help her, don''t you?”
“Umm... I-It''s for the sake of thepany''s reputation.”
Xu Kun was not a fool. After working for Fu Lingye for so many years, he had long been a tactful
person. He knew what to say and what not to say in front of the boss. Judging from Fu Lingye’s
behavior this morning, he had most probably quarreled with Mu Tongrui, and the two of them didn''t
want to be the first to apologize. At this time, if he made Mu Tongrui''s situation sound pitiful, and gently
persuaded Fu Lingye, the two might be able to reconcile.
“Since you are so thoughtful about thepany, you shouldn''t let some employees faint on the
stairway, so as not to cause any troubles to thepany.”
Fu Lingye''s words were chilly, but Xu Kun understood it very well, and immediately replied, “I will ask
Miss Mu toe back now.”
She will be half-dead if she really takes the stairs from the 60th floor to the 20th floor!

Ye Zibo arrived at the Creative Department, and could not find Mu Tongrui. After asking a young intern
sitting next to her workspace, only then did he find out that Mu Tongrui was taking the stairs to send the
documents, so he immediately ran out of the Creative Department. She will definitely go weak at the
knees if she goes down 40 floors of stairs!
Meanwhile, Mu Tongrui only reached the fifty-third floor when she was already feeling dizzy, and her
heart was beating fiercely as if it was about to burst. The stairs swayed in front of her like an illusion,
then everything before her eyes went ck, and the documents in her hand fell all over the ce.
“Tongrui!”
Ye Zibo quickly caught the unconscious Mu Tongrui with his arms, and carried her sideways.
As soon as Xu Kun arrived, he saw Ye Zibo hurrying downstairs with Mu Tongrui in his arms.
Xu Kun immediately said, “Young Master Zibo, the lift has resumed normal operations!”
Ye Zibo looked up at Xu Kun. “Thanks, I will take Tongrui to the hospital immediately!”
Xu Kun watched Ye Zibo walk toward the lift with Mu Tongrui in his arms and sighed.
s, the boss lost a chance to save her like a hero. Young Master Zibo actually beats him to it.
But as Fu Lingye''s special assistant, Xu Kun still professionally called him.
“Boss, I just arrived, but Miss Mu fainted and was taken to the hospital by Young Master Zibo.”
On the other end of the line, the man had been silent all the time, and Xu Kun could even feel the chills
across the phone.
Mu Tongrui woke up dazedly as soon as she was carried into the car by Ye Zibo. She raised her hand
and pressed her temple with her fingers, asking in a hoarse voice, “Why am I here?”
“Well, you fainted on the stairway just now. If I hadn''t been there in time, you might have fallen down
the stairs, either with a broken arm or a broken leg! Why can''t you wait for the lift to resume operation
before you send the documents? Do you not want to walk tomorrow?”
As soon as she woke up, she was being scolded by Ye Zibo. So, she retorted, “Do you think I want it?
it''s all because Xiang Nanqian deliberately made things difficult for me.”
Seriously, I was about to be killed by the Fu family, who either kidnapped me or made life difficult for
me. For my own safety, I really need to stay away from Xiang Nanqian and Fu Lingye.
Ye Zibo frowned. “Why does Xiang Nanqian always go against you?”
Xiang Nanqian was Ye Zibo’s elder and his aunt, but in fact, she was not much older than him, so in
private, Ye Zibo rarely called her “aunt”. Particrly when she was going against Mu Tongrui, it was
even more impossible for Ye Zibo to recognize Xiang Nanqian as his aunt.
Mu Tongrui was dizzy. She didn’t know if it was because Fu Lingye was too tough on herst night, or
because there was a problem with the morning after pill, she took this morning. She opened the door,
wanting to get off the car. “Let''s go back. I''ll be okay after resting for a while. I don''t need to go to the
hospital.”
As soon as she got out of the car, Fu Lingye appeared in front of her out of nowhere, bent down his
noble body, and carried her up with his slender arms.
She was stunned for a while, and then struggled. “What are you doing? Let me down! I can walk by
myself—”
The man replied in a calm tone, “Why would you faint on the stairway if you can walk by yourself?”
“None of your business. Just put me down!”
After what he did to mest night, why is he pretending to be a good man now?
But no matter how she resisted, Fu Lingye turned a deaf ear to her, whereas Ye Zibo who was chasing
him after getting off the car, reached out and stopped Fu Lingye. “Uncle, you and Tong Rui are just
pretending to be husband and wife, and Tong Rui is my girlfriend. You can''t take her away. I''m taking
her to the hospital now!”
Fu Lingye snorted coldly, as a sharp cold glint shed across his dark eyes. “Pretending to be husband
and wife? Would you like to ask her how happy she was in my bedst night?”
Ye Zibo''s face suddenly stiffened.
With Mu Tongrui in his arms, Fu Lingye brushed Ye Zibo''s shoulder as he walked past him in an
extremely arrogant manner. Mu Tongrui clenched her fists and punched him on his shoulders. “Why do
you humiliate me like that?!”
Damn, no one was happy in his bedst night! I was dying!
Fu Lingye had never been very patient with women. Seeing her fidgeting around, he directly threw her
over his shoulder!
With her head pointing to the ground, Mu Tongrui felt a sense of humiliation. “Fu Lingye, put me down!”
She tilted her head backward, only to see Ye Zibo standing rooted to the spot, his eyes full of
disappointment.
Her heart skipped a beat. She had never seen Ye Zibo look so sad.
She once thought that Ye Zibo, who spent three lonely and tough years with her in Paris, was a boy
blessed by happiness all his life, and that he would not have any negative emotions.
