Chapter 244: Toss and Turn



This scene was really a bit hellish. Shen Mubai didn't expect that when he invited Li Ying to dinner, he would run into Fu Jingchen and the others.

If he had known earlier, he would never have chosen this restaurant, but now, he could only accept his fate and follow.

"Yeah." Fu Jingchen just replied briefly and didn't seem to want to say too much. A trace of embarrassment crossed Li Ying's face.

Perhaps it was a woman's keen sixth sense. Ye Susu felt that the relationship between this lady and Fu Jingchen was not ordinary.

Seeing Shen Mubai coming over, she greeted him politely: “Doctor Shen.”

At this moment, Shen Mubai felt that it would be better not to greet Ye Susu, so he smiled awkwardly: "Susu."

Sure enough, Li Ying turned her gaze slightly and looked at Shen Mubai: “Know him?”

Shen Mubai felt like his head was exploding: “Well, I’ve met him a few times before.”

The air seemed a little stagnant. Fu Jingchen didn't ask much, even though Li Ying and Shen Mubai came to eat.

At this time, the driver drove over, and Fu Jingchen embraced Ye Susu: "Let's go first."

Li Ying watched the two of them get into the car.

When they got to the restaurant again, they were no longer in the mood to eat. Li Ying looked melancholy and asked Shen Mubai, "When did they get together?"

Shen Mubai was cutting a steak with a dinner knife. Hearing this, he didn't know what he felt, but it was uncomfortable.

He has known Li Ying for so many years and has been interested in her, so he naturally understands her character.

He knew that Li Ying was just pretending to be free and easy. But he still didn't understand, since Li Ying was so "free and easy" that she divorced Jingchen, and the two had no contact for several years, why did she still pay attention to Fu Jingchen now?

"Only a few months, I don't know exactly when they got together."

After Shen Mubai finished speaking, Li Ying's heart was confused. Yes, the intimate posture of the two of them just now was a foregone conclusion that they were together. What other answer was she expecting?

Fu Jingchen has not had a girlfriend in the past few years, and she thought... she was just being sentimental after all.

I have to say that today's scene was too sudden and it still had a certain impact on Li Ying.

Picking up the wine glass and taking a sip of red wine, she slowly looked at Shen Mubai: "Why did you hide it from me?" It made her look like a clown today.

Shen Mubai couldn't bear to see the loneliness on her delicate face, and a sense of powerlessness emerged from his heart: "Xiaoying, let the past go, you must learn to cherish the people in front of you."

"The person in front of me... is it you?"

In the car, Ye Susu's hand was always held in Fu Jingchen's palm, but the two did not say anything along the way. The little drama in Ye Susu's heart never stopped. Even though she did not know Li Ying before, she was already certain that the woman should be Fu Jingchen's ex-wife.

No wonder she is so elegant. Fu Ruxuan once told her that Fu Jingchen's ex-wife was a dancer.

The feeling in my heart is a bit strange. Although Fu Jingchen did not show any enthusiasm, the other party's performance is unforgettable. It can be seen that the old love is unforgettable.

She hasn't come into contact with many men, but she has read Zhang Ailing's novels, Vermillion Mole and White Moonlight. Although the ex-wife may not be Fu Jingchen's first love, is it possible that the two of them experienced a lingering love?

After all, she is the first wife.

Although she was "pregnant", Fu Jingchen did not say that he would marry her.

The jealousy caused by Li Ying made Miss Ye toss and turn. She would blame herself for the jealousy and even spare Fu Jingchen's ex-wife.

"Can't sleep?" When Fu Jingchen's voice sounded, Ye Susu was so frightened that she immediately stopped moving and dared not move anymore.

She turned over only after she heard the man's even breathing.

"Almost...almost asleep." A weak voice came from under the quilt. Fu Jingchen woke up completely, turned on the bedside lamp, and pulled the person under the quilt into his arms. The person in his arms had bright eyes and didn't look too awake, but his expression still had a little inexplicable guilt.

He touched her forehead with his big hand, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Seeing the man's concern for her actions, Ye Susu's random thoughts disappeared for a while, and she was only thinking about the guilt of disturbing Fu Jingchen's rest.

After all, he has to get up early for work tomorrow.

He quickly shook his head: "No, no, go to sleep, I want to sleep too." Then he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Fu Jingchen couldn't help laughing: "if you have something to say, just say it, otherwise I still can't sleep."

Ye Susu didn't expect Fu Jingchen to be so persistent. Since he asked her to say it, she couldn't bear it anymore. She just asked if she should pay attention to some methods. She opened her eyes, looked at Fu Jingchen, and said, "I'm just wondering what you were like when you were young."

"Do you think I'm old?"

"Oh, no, it's just that I feel that you must have been different when you were young, and I didn't even know you back then. It's such a pity to think about it this way." He sighed to himself as he spoke.

Fu Jingchen looked at the woman's expression and said "hmm" for a moment, then said seriously, "I'll bring the album back from the old house someday to show you. It contains photos of me when I was young."

Ye Susu was truly moved for a moment, but quickly despised herself. Was this about looking at the photo album? Was it about asking his ex-wife?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel determined and said sullenly: "Is the person next to Dr. Shen today your ex-wife?"

Fu Jingchen thought to himself, finally we're getting to the point. He remained silent when he came back in the evening, not because he felt there was no need to explain to Ye Susu, but because he really didn't take it to heart. For him, Li Ying, apart from the title of "ex-wife", could no longer move his heartstrings, so he didn't care about today's encounter.

I didn't expect Susu to toss and turn for so long.

"Well, her name is Li Ying. We divorced three years ago and she went to the United States. We haven't been in touch since." Fu Jingchen played with her soft hair and was very concise.

The answer was expected, and Ye Susu suddenly felt that there was nothing more to ask.

Asking him if he and Li Ying would rekindle their past relationship was too hypocritical. Besides, even if she asked, what would it matter? If he said no, then it wouldn't happen? A man's promises were the least trustworthy, yet she was already beginning to worry about the outcome.

"Oh, nothing." Listening to Ye Susu's low mood, Fu Jingchen was a little stunned, and couldn't help but say a few more words: "I won't linger on the past. I only care about the present and the future."

Now Ye Susu is lying in Fu Jingchen's arms, and such words are almost like love words.

Ye Susu thought, maybe she could give Fu Jingchen more trust.

Even though this matter is over, Ye Susu told herself not to be pretentious.

The results of the postgraduate study have come out, and Ye Susu has to go back to school to prepare the materials. Fu Jingchen sent her downstairs to the school this time, and reminded her: "Be careful when you go up the stairs. I will send someone to pick you up in the evening."

In fact, Fu Jingchen originally wanted Ye Susu to prepare the information at home. After all, she is pregnant now, and there are still some unsafe factors in the school.

However, Ye Susu refused on the grounds that a lot of information was still at school and she still needed to communicate with the teacher.

Fu Jingchen can only resign himself to having to go home every day. If he can't pick it up, he will ask the driver to come over.
