"To prevent Fu An from using you for a political marriage, you were willing to ruin your reputation to marry him."
"After it was discovered that she was a fake heiress, she even wanted to elope with him. She even booked the plane tickets."
Sheng Linghan narrowed his eyes, his brows furrowed with coldness.
Fu Yu instinctively backed away.
Sheng Linghan interpreted the subtle movement as an attempt to escape.
He held her wrists down, his large hands easily bringing her wrists together and pressing them against the armrests of the leather seat.
He leaned close to her ear and added, "The day Fu Qian asked you to go to Qingyun Temple, you were actually already at the airport."
Sheng Linghan sneered and blew a breath towards her earlobe.
Should I thank my wife?
"She didn't abandon me and elope with her lover."
"But time and time again..."
With each word Sheng Linghan uttered, he rammed forward violently.
The leather chair slammed against the desk due to inertia.
It emitted a series of muffled thuds.
"Help me remove the curse in one go."
Fu Yu's cheeks were burning red, and her waist was incredibly limp.
Damn it.
These are all previous system settings, what does it have to do with her?
Fu Yu bit her lip, "Husband, I can explain..."
Sheng Linghan lifted Fu Yu's chin, his nose brushing against the blush on her cheeks.
He said meaningfully, "What kind of trick are you trying to pull on me now, hmm?"
"Qi Wen, get out."
When his name was called out abruptly, Qi Wen left the president's office as if he had been granted a pardon.
The second secretary, carrying the documents the president needed to sign, had just reached the door when Qi Wen led her back the way she came.
"For the next hour, no, for the next two hours, no one is allowed to disturb Young Master Sheng!"
"Oh, isn't the president in a particularly good mood lately because of his wife?"
Everyone in the CEO's office knows that Fu Yu is their savior.
The man, who was usually as cold and aloof as an iceberg, was made to pout by Fu Yu's few words.
As long as Fu Yu comes, they won't have to work overtime, and they might even be able to leave early.
Normally, if any department angers Sheng Linghan, as soon as Fu Yu arrives, Sheng Linghan's anger immediately dissipates.
Fu Yu always says she can't live without Sheng Linghan.
In their view, it was Sheng Linghan who couldn't live without Fu Yu.
If I can't see you for even a minute, I'll call you.
Some secretaries even saw Sheng Linghan video chatting with Fu Yu while he was away on a business trip.
Qi Wen adjusted his glasses like a famous detective and waved to his left and right.
More than a dozen people gathered around, holding their breath as they listened to Qi Wen's gossip.
"What? You mean our CEO has become a backup option?!"
The scene was too horrifying; no one could reconcile the aloof Sheng Linghan with the term "backup plan."
If Fu Yu hadn't become the president's wife!
ox!
Fu Yuke, who was in the office, didn't think she was anything special.
She was being tortured to death by the man with the strength of an ox.
"Honey, he's getting married, and to Fu Qian no less. Are you sad?"
"Honey, do you have a way to help you forget your pain? Want to try it?"
"Wife, why did you want to get a marriage certificate with me? Was it to find someone to rely on? Or was it a delaying tactic to keep me calm while you wait for an opportunity to run away with your lover?"
"Honey, why do I feel like I'm some kind of mistress who can't be seen in public? We're legally married."
"I should really lock my wife in a gilded cage, and no one else is allowed to see her except me. What do you think?"
"Do you want to attend his wedding? Honey, tell me the truth, Fu Qian is just a smokescreen for the two of you, right? You just want to use the wedding to leave me and find a chance to elope with Chen Wen, don't you?"
"Wife, do you really want to leave me? Is that man better than me?"
"He's not as good as me. If you leave me, you'll never have this experience again. Are you really willing to let him go?"
"Honey, do he know as many tricks as I do?"
"Honey, say something."
Fu Yu rolled her eyes inwardly.
Before she could speak, Sheng Linghan silenced her with a kiss.
What was she supposed to say?!
Should we use Morse code?
Taking advantage of Sheng Linghan's momentary lapse in concentration, Fu Yu slapped him.
Grabbing his chin, she said sharply, "I admit, I was desperate and grasped at straws when I was trying to leave."
"Chen Wen said he would help me go abroad. Compared to going back to the countryside, this outcome is already pretty good for me."
Meeting you was indeed an accident.
"But during the time we were together, did I ever secretly contact Chen Wen, or did Chen Wen ever contact me?"
"You've been monitoring my phone number, you should know that."
Fortunately, Chen Wen never loved Fu Yu, and Fu Yu blocked Chen Wen early on after she transmigrated to this world.
That makes this explanation seem reasonable.
What about those rumors?
"Whether it's male models or Chen Wen, they are all means for me to resist Fu An. I don't want to become his tool for marriage."
"Because I've known all along that I'm not the Fu family's biological daughter."
"If a scion of a prominent family marries me because of the Fu family's reputation, once my true identity is revealed, all that awaits me in the future is divorce and contempt."
Tears welled up in her eyes.
These are not Fu Yu's tears, but the original owner's pain.
She was set up as a control group against Fu Qian. Even with top-notch resources, she had to restrain her brilliance, slander herself, and act cautiously.
She also had to chase after a man who didn't love her, sacrificing her carefully prepared wedding to make Chen Wen and Fu Qian a couple.
"Don't cry."
Sheng Linghan kissed away Fu Yu's tears.
"Can I believe you, my wife? Can I believe you only love me?"
