Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Fu Lingye did not show any sign of retreating. There were many onlookers around them and there

might even be paparazzi around. Mu Tongrui was afraid that Fu Lingye would be responsible for

someone's life and be sued for assault. She tugged at his sleeve.

“Fu Lingye, shall we go?”

Fu Lingye dealt several blows. Jia Yunsheng could not take them anymore. Fu Lingye then lifted his

feet to let go of him. Jia Yunsheng held onto his crotch and screamed in excruciating pain. He was

drenched in his own perspiration.

“Honey! Please call for the ambulance quickly! I cannot take it anymore!”

Everyone around them laughed silently with their mouths closed.

Fu Lingye's gaze was focused on Mu Tongrui. Her wrinkled clothes made her appear disheveled. He

took off his outer jacket and placed it over her shoulders. He then bent down and carried her up.

Mu Tongrui blushed and looked at her surroundings. There were so many people looking at them...

She said softly, “I am not injured. Put me down quickly. There are too many people here....”

However, he could not care less about the stares and continued carrying her in his arms. He spoke to

everyone with an air of arrogance, “Look carefully at her. She is my woman. Don't you dare lay your

hands on her. You will not be let off as easily as Mr. Jia today.”

Mu Tongrui froze and gazed at him.

Jia Yunsheng was dealt with a heavy blow today. Wasn't it severe enough?

When Jia Yunsheng was being tackled by Fu Lingye, he was screaming desperately. His screams

scared her. Fu Lingye had wrecked Jia Yunsheng's crotch.

Mu Tongrui felt that it was worthwhile going through all that injustice earlier.

Her father, Mu Guangqing used to be her number one protector. Ever since his death, there was no

one else like Fu Lingye who protected her and stood by her side. He was very harsh towards Jia

Yunsheng in order to protect her. She did not cry. Even when Miao Cuiya grabbed her hair and

trampled on her dignity earlier, she still did not shed tears. However, as she laid against his sturdy

chest, she could not control her tears from flowing after seeing that Fu Lingye truly cared for her.

He carried her and strode towards the Peninsula Hotel.

His outer coat was draped on her. She laid against his chest and took in his masculine scent. The smell

of Fu Lingye's cologne and his breath reeking of cigarettes gave her a sense of security.

She placed her hands tightly around his neck.

She actually hated men who smoke. She was unhappy when Mu Guangqing used to smoke in front of

her. However, she liked it when it came to the light smell of tobacco lingering on Fu Lingye's body.

The smell seemed to accentuate Fu Lingye's charisma and maturity. Mu Tongrui was completely

smitten with him.

Fu Lingye felt her warm tears against his chest as he carried her. He frowned slightly and looked down

at her to ask, “Where did Jia Yunsheng touch you?”

Was she injured?

She did not say anything, but simply shook her head and buried in his chest. She mumbled, “Fu

Lingye, can you please stop being so nice to me? I am afraid that I will fall in love with you...”

His back stiffened.

His lips curled. He continued to carry her and walk straight ahead, then responded in a deep voice, “Is

it very embarrassing for you to fall in love with me?”

Mu Tongrui looked up at him with her tear-stained face as she got up. Her eyes were swollen red. “So

what if I have fallen in love with you? You don't like me anyway, so what is the point of all that?”

Fu Lingye looked at her, amused, “Mu Tongrui, should love be calculated this way?”

She bit her lips. If she were able to keep her feelings for him under wraps, then she would have been

able to resist expressing her emotions. However, she had already fallen deeply in love with him...

She knew that she had started developing feelings for him the last time when he went to the mountains

to rescue her from the raging fire. However, after this incident, she was much clearer of her feelings

——

She had really fallen for him, sinking deeper and deeper.

After Fu Lingye had carried her into the car, he did not rush to drive off. He lifted his hand to touch her

bruised forehead.

The man's slender fingertips gently rubbed against it and Mu Tongrui shrunk back in pain.

“Are you injured anywhere else?”

She gazed at him, her eyes lingering on his. She shook her head gently, “No...”

Fu Lingye lowered his gaze to see her looking back at him. He asked, expressing concern, “Where else

did he touch you?”

Mu Tongrui stretched out her arm like an obedient child. Fu Lingye took out a piece of wet tissue and

observed both arms closely before asking with a serious tone, “Where else?”

She inched closer towards him until her face was two or three centimeters away from him. She said

softly, “He also touched my mouth.”

He grew furious at the fact and drew another piece of wet tissue to wipe her lips, but Mu Tongrui held

onto his hand and gave him an intense stare. With a shaky voice, she said, “I wiped it already. There is

a way that might be better...”

After saying it, she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it especially when Fu Lingye was staring at

her with his deep black eyes. She grew nervous with embarrassment and wanted to retreat, but a

sudden rush of courage took over. She reached for his neck and kissed him gently on the lips.

Fu Lingye froze for a few seconds. Then right after that, he pulled her towards him, enveloping her

waist and kissing her more passionately on the car seat.

She was the one who initiated the kiss, but Fu Lingye subsequently took over with greater intensity.

She blushed and could not breathe properly. His lips were so close to hers.

Fu Lingye stared at her. He did not know what she was feeling, “Can I do it now?”

She plucked up her courage to whisper into his ears, “I was not being truthful to you earlier.”

Her ears grew red with embarrassment. She kissed him again on the corners of his lips. She was

anxious yet she said it with a serious expression, “Didn't you say that you do not accept verbal

apologies? How about this? Do you accept it then?”

His handsome face broke into a smile, “This is not okay.”

It took Mu Tongrui a while before she responded while looking at him, “Then, what would be okay?”

His hands circled her waist and he pressed his body tightly against her. His lips came near, almost

caressing her ears. He said out the words slowly, in a low and sexy voice, “How about sex as

compensation?”

“........”

Mu Tongrui was so embarrassed at what Fu Lingye said, knowing that it was not so easy to satisfy him.

However, why did she feel this nauseating feeling of sweetness welling up inside her?

The horrible thing was that she also wanted to have...sex with him.

She covered her face that was heating up so quickly. He teased, “Are you not going to get up? Do you

want to do it in the car?”

She crawled back to the front passenger seat immediately.

She was reminded of the contract all of a sudden after she had calmed down, “Oh yes, Jia Yunsheng

have not signed the contract. How am I going to update Xiang Nanqian on this?”
