Fu Yan was not surprised by Li Susu's rejection.
How could someone who has achieved so much in such a short time after her divorce be content to continue being a housewife?
The information he had investigated beforehand clearly showed that Li Susu had been a housewife for several years.
Fighting poison with poison can sometimes be a good remedy.
"Miss Li, why refuse so quickly?"
Fu Yan smiled faintly, while Li Susu merely chuckled softly.
"Chairman Fu, who can say for sure about matters of the heart?"
"Perhaps you have always felt that you can control other people's lives, but now, my life can only be controlled by myself."
Li Susu didn't want to stay any longer. Listening to Fu Yan's high-sounding words made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Mr. Fu, if you have nothing else to discuss, I will..."
Before Li Susu could finish speaking, the door to the private room was opened.
Both of them looked in the direction of the sound. Fu Yan frowned, his expression displeased.
The person at the door was none other than Fu Xingzhou, the subject of their conversation.
Fu Xingzhou's face was gloomy as he strode in.
What do you want to do?
Fu Xingzhou couldn't wait at the Fu family's residence, so he had his assistant contact the Li family's residence.
But then he learned that Li Susu had come out to keep the appointment, and the worst part was that the person she was going to meet was none other than his father.
Fu Xingzhou knew very well that his father would say many things that were hard to accept.
He can bear these things alone; he absolutely cannot let Li Susu bear them.
That's why he rushed over, hoping it wasn't too late.
Fu Yan's expression softened as he looked at his son's nervous demeanor.
"Xingzhou, I was just having a brief chat with Miss Li."
"Of course, we also talked about things between you two. I thought you were in love, but Miss Li just clearly rejected me."
Fu Yan's words were somewhat vague, making it easy for people to think of other things.
Li Susu frowned slightly and subconsciously exchanged a glance with Fu Xingzhou.
Fu Xingzhou's eyes darkened, showing some disappointment.
The next moment, he pulled Li Susu behind him.
"You don't need to worry about our affairs."
"From now on, please don't interfere in my private affairs anymore, and please don't do such things again."
Fu Xingzhou coldly warned his father, then took Li Susu and left.
The private room quickly quieted down. Fu Yan's tea had gone a little cold, but he didn't mind and drank it all in one gulp.
Fu Yan's expression was extremely cold, clearly indicating his dissatisfaction with his son's actions.
It seems he underestimated the woman's importance in his son's heart.
This wasn't the first time she had rebelled against herself for Li Susu's sake.
After the two left the villa, Fu Xingzhou released Li Susu's hand and took the initiative to speak.
"Don't worry about what he says to you."
Li Susu pursed her lips, her heart pounding like thunder.
Fu Yan's words were still echoing in his mind.
The likely outcome of marrying Fu Xingzhou would be becoming a virtuous and devoted daughter-in-law in the Fu family, devoted to her husband and raising her children.
Fu Yan is right about that.
She did have feelings for Fu Xingzhou, but...
Li Susu took a breath and finally mustered up the courage to speak.
"Mr. Fu, you helped me a lot in the past, and I am very grateful."
"However, I hope that we can continue to refuse in the future and not let others misunderstand."
