Chapter 136 I Need an Answer
"I said, how old is your friend's child?"
Ning Xin came back to her senses. Did he see it? "Oh, three...years old."
…
Ning Xin first took Fu Beicheng to the mall and compensated him with a complete suit jacket, which the man then went to the fitting room to change into.
After a while, the man came out, holding the tie in his hand, and walked up to her. "Can you help me tie it?"
Ning Xin shook her head and refused flatly, "I won't."
The salesgirl was eager to try but didn't dare to interrupt. Fu Beicheng tied his tie slowly and leisurely without any embarrassment of being rejected, as if he had just said it casually. His noble temperament and handsome face were beyond reach.
Suddenly, Ning Xin's phone rang. Seeing that it was Lin Ruiyang, she answered it anyway, "Xinxin, where are you? I want to take you out for dinner."
Ning Xin looked at the man sitting next to her and said, "No need, let's do it tomorrow."
"Where are you now?" Lin Ruiyang asked.
"I'm just hanging out outside. That's all. It's a bit noisy over here." After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Fu Beicheng beside her was looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking. When they arrived at the restaurant, Ning Xin asked Fu Beicheng to order the dishes.
"You order, I'm not picky."
Fu Beicheng said.
Ning Xin did not refuse and ordered some special dishes.
The meal was quiet and no one spoke. Fu Beicheng was also very quiet. They finished the meal quietly. Just as they were about to leave, it started to rain heavily outside.
The two did not leave in a hurry. They stood in front of the window, looking at the city surrounded by rain, and no one spoke.
"Has the wedding date been set?" the man suddenly asked.
"Um."
Fu Beicheng took a sip of the wine in his hand, his voice emotionless, "That's good."
Ning Xin didn't ask him why he suddenly came to Country S, because she had no right to ask.
"I heard that there was an attack at your eighteenth birthday party. Didn't your father and brother find out about such an important matter?"
Ning Xin was stunned for a moment, not knowing why he was asking these questions, but she continued, "There were quite a lot of people there at the time, and I didn't find anyone suspicious. Plus, my cruise ship was burned, so I had no way to investigate."
"Can you tell me what happened at that time?"
Ning Xin looked at him, and Fu Beicheng also looked at her, "I want to know what my wife went through to come to me."
Ning Xin frowned and met his deep eyes, "Fu Beicheng..."
"I know you don't want to hear about the past, so I won't say it anymore. I want to know what happened to you that day."
Ning Xin looked out the window and told him everything that happened that day.
The man listened quietly for a long time before he said, "So those masked men could appear at any time."
"My father and brother have already checked again."
"Xinxin." Fu Beicheng suddenly called her, and Ning Xin turned to look at him.
Fu Beicheng suddenly pulled her into his arms. Ning Xin struggled, but the man held her tightly, "Don't move."
His voice was low and suppressed, sounding like he was trying hard to hold back something. "Xinxin, I'm sorry."
Ning Xin's body froze. "What's the point of you saying sorry to me? I'm not her, and I don't remember those memories. Your apology doesn't hurt me at all."
The man's breathing quickened. "So, she will never be able to hear it again."
"You don't have to keep holding on to the past. It's better for everyone if you let it go." Ning Xin didn't hug him back, nor did she push him away.
The man didn't say anything, but hugged her even tighter, his voice ringing softly in her ears, "You were so young at that time, but I didn't protect my little wife well, nor did I cherish her well."
"Fu Beicheng, that's enough. If you continue like this, we won't meet again. I feel annoyed just seeing you." Ning Xin's tone unconsciously became heavier.
Fu Beicheng's eyes darkened, "Just don't tell me."
"Can you let me go now?"
"Let me hold you for a while longer, I miss you." His breath sprayed against my ears, warm and hot, and my heart skipped a beat.
"I know you don't want to see me. If you really love him, then I will grant your wish."
Ning Xin was stunned. "But before that, I want to know if Lin Ruiyang can give up everything for you."
Ning Xin frowned and looked at him, "What do you want to do?"
"Let me help you test him, okay?" Fu Beicheng's voice instantly returned to its noble and indifferent tone.
"Fu Beicheng, I know better than anyone whether he is sincere to me or not."
"No, I want to know if he can love you as much as his life. If he hesitates even a little, I won't give you to him." When Fu Beicheng said these words, his eyes were bloodshot, as if he was trying his best to restrain the viciousness that was about to explode.
It's shocking.
"What are you going to do?" Ning Xin asked worriedly, afraid that he would do something wrong.
"Don't be afraid, you don't have to do anything, just stay with me for two days." Fu Beicheng said as he tucked her hair behind her ears.
Ning Xin slapped his hand away, "I want to go home."
Fu Beicheng grabbed her hand and said, "Lin Ruiyang has probably received the news. Please wait a little longer."
Ning Xin was angry, "Fu Beicheng, this is Country S, you can't do whatever you want."
Fu Beicheng endured the pain in his heart that felt like someone was stabbing him with a knife, held her hand, and restrained himself affectionately, "I'm not going to do anything, don't worry, I won't hurt him."
After a while, Zhang Sen came in and said, "The president has taken care of it."
Fu Beicheng said to Ning Xin, "We need to change places."
Lin Ruiyang and Lin Ruibo sat opposite each other, their slightly similar expressions cold at the moment. "Brother, there has been someone helping you behind the scenes. I want to know who that person is?"
Lin Ruiyang looked lazy and said with a half-smile, "Can anyone help me? Brother, you're overthinking it."
"Brother, you once said you would never argue with me. I want to know what made you change your mind."
Lin Ruibo still smiled, his tone nonchalant, "I just suddenly wanted to sit in the position of heir for fun."
"Since you don't want to say it, then forget it. No matter what, you will always be my brother and that will never change." Lin Ruiyang looked at him and spoke word by word.
Lin Ruibo kept smiling, but his expression was unclear.
At this moment, Lin Ruiyang's phone suddenly rang, and the next moment his face changed, "What!"
"What happened?" Lin Ruibo looked at him.
"I have something to take care of." After saying that, Lin Ruiyang hurried away.
Ning Xin was taken to another place, which was a casino. However, the casino was empty with only some bodyguards. Fu Beicheng took her to the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, where there was a huge glass window in front of her.
People upstairs can see everything below, but people below cannot see people upstairs.
Ning Xin looked at Fu Beicheng, who was full of murderous aura, and asked, "What on earth are you going to do?"
"You'll know in a moment." Fu Beicheng said, with anticipation in his eyes, but also panic and fear of the unknown.
