Shang Wu was known in circles for having a great life.
When she was down and out, the Cheng Zhou Crown Prince pulled her out of the abyss, doting on and protecting her, unwilling to let her s...
Lu Yuwu was completely stunned, staring at Fu Yan in disbelief.
She never expected that Fu Yan could go to such lengths.
Demanding a complete severance of ties leaves virtually no room for negotiation.
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then Mrs. Fu's voice rang out again, this time with understanding and relief: "Mom knows. You child, wouldn't it have been better if you had been so decisive earlier? Alright, Mom will handle this. I promise she won't appear in front of you and Xiaowu again."
As expected of a shrewd woman, Madam Fu immediately understood her son's intentions and even directly pointed out Lu Yuwu.
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone decisively.
Fu Yan put away his phone, looked at Lu Yuwu who was still in shock, and said in a deep voice, "Is this clear enough? Jin Ting and I have nothing to do with each other from now on. It was my fault for causing you so much suffering because of her. I didn't handle it well."
Lu Yuwu opened her mouth, as if to say something, but found that her throat felt blocked.
Fu Yan's attitude truly shocked her.
However, before she could even process all the information, Fu Yan's next words left her feeling completely disoriented.
"Lu Yuwu, can we put those misunderstandings behind us?"
He looked at her, his eyes more serious than ever before. "Let's make up, okay?"
Lu Yuwu's heart skipped a beat. Looking at his earnest face, she almost nodded.
But just then, a thought came to mind like a bucket of cold water.
His decisiveness and humble attitude today are because his grandfather brought Luo Jun, and because he sensed a crisis.
If Luo Jun hadn't appeared, would he have continued the cold war? Would he have continued to put on airs?
Lu Yuwu abruptly took a step back, avoiding Fu Yan's outstretched hand, and looked at him with a complicated expression: "I need time to think about it."
After saying that, she dared not look him in the eye again, turned around and ran away in a hurry.
Fu Yan watched her fleeing figure, his brows furrowed, and his fists clenched unconsciously.
He knew that she still had a grudge.
Lu Yuwu returned to her dormitory building in a state of utter confusion, only to unexpectedly see the last person she wanted to see at that moment.
Jin Ting.
Jin Ting had clearly received a call from Madam Fu. Her face was pale, her eyes were red and swollen, and her gaze towards Lu Yuwu was filled with resentment.
"Lu Yuwu! Was it you! Did you say something about me to Brother Yan? You bitch, how dare you make him ignore me! How dare you make Aunt Fu forbid me from going to the Fu family anymore!"
Jin Ting rushed forward, her voice shrill, attracting the attention of everyone around her.
Lu Yuwu was already in a bad mood, and seeing Jin Ting's hysterical state only made her more irritable.
She said coldly, "Jin Ting, please show some respect! Fu Yan's decision is his business, it has nothing to do with me!"
"None of your business? Ha!"
Jin Ting sneered, her eyes filled with malice. "If you hadn't seduced him, how could he have treated me like this! Let me tell you, I won't let you get away with this! You just wait!"
"Enough!" a cold voice rang out.
Shang Wu walked over at some point. She was obviously worried about her daughter and came to check on her, only to witness this scene.
She shielded Lu Yuwu behind her, looked at the seemingly deranged Jin Ting, and said in a threatening tone: "Miss Jin, please watch your words and actions. Fu Yan has made it clear that he is severing ties with you. If you continue to pester me and even threaten my daughter, don't blame the Lu family for being impolite."
Please leave immediately, or I will call security.
Shang Wu's aura was powerful, and Jin Ting was intimidated by her. Coupled with the pointing and whispering of the people around her, she finally didn't dare to make a scene anymore. She just glared at Lu Yuwu and ran away crying.
“Mom…” Lu Yuwu looked at her mother, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
Shang Wu patted her daughter's hand and said softly, "It's alright. This kind of person isn't worth your trouble. Go back now."
Back in her dorm, Lu Yuwu collapsed onto her bed, exhausted, her mind a jumbled mess.
Just then, the phone screen lit up; it was a text message from Fu Yan.
Just three simple words: "Let's make up?"
As Lu Yuwu looked at those three words, that thorn in her heart began to throb again.
She couldn't help but think that if it weren't for Luo Jun, he would have simply resolved Jin Ting's problem and then come to ask her if they should reconcile.
She felt extremely uncomfortable with this choice, which seemed to be made under external pressure.
Lu Yuwu stared at the screen for a long time, and finally, she moved her finger but didn't reply with a single word before tossing her phone aside.
She needs three days to calm down, and every second counts.
Lu Yuwu went to class as usual every day, and never mentioned Fu Yan when she got home.
Shang Wu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but she had to maintain a calm demeanor.
That evening after dinner, she finally couldn't resist and slipped into her daughter's room with a plate of fruit, casually sitting down next to Lu Yuwu.
"Xiao Wu," Shang Wu picked up a piece of apple and carefully began, "It's been two days. What have you thought about Fu Yan?"
Lu Yuwu paused as she flipped through the blueprints, lowered her eyes to conceal the complex emotions within them.
She was silent for a moment before saying in a muffled voice, "Mom, I don't know."
She looked up at Shang Wu, her eyes filled with confusion and grievance: "He handled Jin Ting's matter very decisively this time and apologized to me, but I still feel uneasy. Don't you think so?"
"If Grandpa hadn't suddenly brought Luo Jun back and put so much pressure on him, would he still be acting like before, putting on airs and waiting for me to bow down?"
Shang Wu's heart skipped a beat.
The daughter has indeed gotten stuck on this point. She needs to figure out whether Fu Yan's turning back now is because he truly can't let her go, or simply because he's unwilling to let her be taken away by someone else.
