In the capital's elite families, everyone says that Master Fu is cold on the outside and even colder on the inside.
Especially in the years after Fu Mingzhen's death, Fu Yanci caused a lot of trouble in order to smoothly take over the Fu Group and the Fu family, which naturally resulted in many deaths.
Since then, everyone has known that the young Master Fu is ruthless and heartless.
But Ye Li has seen many different versions of Fu Yanci.
Gentle and considerate.
Understanding and considerate.
Obsessed and persistent...
And this one right now, with a touch of childish rascality.
It is often said that humans are rational yet emotional creatures.
For two people who meet in the vast sea of people, it takes a long time to go from meeting and getting to know each other to falling in love.
But Ye Li felt that it wasn't necessary.
From the time her entanglement with Fu Yanci truly began last November to this sweltering August, it's only been 10 months at most.
Less than a year.
In less than a year, she fell in love with every aspect of him.
Ye Li could already imagine that when the man asked those "whys," the roguish childishness on his face would vanish without a trace in an instant.
Then, he transformed back into the calm and composed Master Fu.
Then, in a cold voice, he asked her: So, Mrs. Fu, what do you want to know?
So many "whys," but what good will knowing them do?
Li Li is gone forever.
Her rationality and clarity allowed her to obtain some cruel yet truthful answers, shattering the beautiful illusion of prosperity that shone through.
What else can we get?
It's not worth the risk.
Ye Li decided to act unreasonably this time.
"Fu Yanci, when Lin Kerou arrived at the ice rink yesterday, did you say who she was to you?"
? ? ?
Is it related to Lin Ke-rou?
Fu Yanci shook his head, "Ali, don't you know best who she is to me?"
Ye Li nodded, "Yes, I know. What about Xiao Bao's parents? Do they know too?"
Fu Yanci was taken aback.
Ye Li glanced at the phone in the bedroom, its ringtone abruptly cut off. "The mothers are all asking me, since Xiao Bao is Lin Ke Rou's son, why are you the one taking care of him? They're asking me if Lin Ke Rou is your ex-wife or ex-girlfriend or something?"
"The mothers also said that Lin Kerou looks at you more often than she looks at Xiaobao, which clearly shows that she still has designs on you. But, judging from Master Fu's noncommittal attitude, he seems to be indifferent as well."
"The mothers said that although there were no signs of a rekindling of old flames, it was still necessary to be prepared and take precautions, so they told me to be vigilant."
Every time Ye Li said something, Fu Yanci's face darkened by three degrees.
After saying "be vigilant," it was as if he really would do something behind her back in the future.
Fu Yanci's expression was one of utter helplessness.
Yesterday, when Lin Kerou introduced herself as Xiaobao's mother, all the fathers looked at her with shocked expressions.
The chubby father blurted out, "Mr. Fu, that... you guys..."
He didn't even glance at Lin Kerou, only saying: I have nothing to do with her.
The fathers looked at each other with an "I see" expression and didn't ask any more questions.
After all, cooperating with the Fu family is the real business, and it's more worth their time than inquiring about his romantic affairs.
But now, recalling his calm and composed statement, "I have nothing to do with her," one can't help but sense a proud and defiant attempt to distance himself.
It was as if he and she had a relationship in the past.
Fu Yanci: ...
He watched as Ye Li pushed him away and walked straight back to her bedroom.
There's something just not right.
Fu Yanci chased after them and heard a cell phone ringing, along with Wan Mingyi's bright voice on the other end, "Pear, we've already set off. Have you left yet?"
"Okay, let's go downstairs now and leave... Are you with Director Xie and the others?"
While making a phone call, Ye Li walked downstairs, pushing her suitcase with one hand.
Behind him, Fu Yanci's face darkened again.
He's a grown man.
Can't she see him?
He took a few steps forward and snatched the suitcase from her hand. Seeing that she didn't seem to want to hang up the phone even after getting into the car, Fu Yanci's feeling that something was wrong became more and more obvious.
But I just can't figure out what's wrong.
"Pear, what's wrong?"
On the other end of the phone, Wan Mingyi sounded anxious, "Why do I feel like you're just making small talk?"
We're together in the studio from morning till night every day, so there's really nothing more to say.
"..."
Ye Li sighed, "Okay, see you later!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Li looked down and scrolled through her phone.
Honey, what are you doing?
[Friendly match. Busy, MUA...]
[Mom, I'm on a business trip to Shanghai. What are you doing?]
[Good luck, Xiao Li! Your wife is practicing the piano. Xiao Li, take good care of yourself while you're away on your business trip, eat on time, and drink plenty of water!]
[Xiaoxiao, school is about to start, how's everything going?]
[Busy right now... Pear, good luck in the competition! Fighting! I'm going to get busy now, talk to you later!]
Ye Li: ...
“Ah Li…”
A cold, deep voice rang in her ears. Ye Li hung up the phone, then turned back with a gentle smile. "Fu Yanci, take good care of yourself while I'm away on a business trip! Eat on time, drink plenty of water, and try not to work overtime!"
The sad kitten instantly switched into the gentle and virtuous Mrs. Fu mode.
Fu Yanci's eyes flickered slightly.
The car was parked in the underground parking lot. Seeing Fu Yanci turn to unbuckle his seatbelt, Ye Li reached out to stop him. "No need to see me off. Mingyi and the others have already arrived. I'll go meet them and then leave. Besides..."
