Chapter 94: Bad Girl
"You know?" Fu Mingshuang was under Lu Shiyu, with a gleam in her eyes.
"Know what? I know a lot." Lu Shiyu looked at her and resisted the urge to kiss her.
"Your mother was afraid that I would affect your career, so she used deleting my medical records as leverage to get me to divorce you."
Lu Shiyu was silent for a moment before he said thoughtfully, "Oh... so that's how it is... now I understand."
Fu Mingshuang was stunned for a moment, then realized that she had been tricked. She pushed him away angrily and sat up from the bed: "Are you trying to trick me???"
"Hmm~" Lu Shiyu admitted calmly, "I knew one-third, guessed one-third, and then I figured out the rest."
"So what do you know and guess?" Fu Mingshuang glanced at him.
"I knew the Fu family would fall while I was abroad, and I guessed my mother would make things difficult for you after his downfall."
Fu Mingshuang pondered for a long time before speaking: "Lu Shiyu..."
She turned her head, stared into his pale eyes and asked, "Have you done a lot of bad things behind my back?"
Lu Shiyu did not deny it, but asked in return: "What is a good thing? What is a bad thing?"
Fu Mingshuang was speechless, not knowing how to answer...
But Lu Shiyu continued, "But there is one thing I guessed wrong."
"What's up?"
"I thought you were provoked by Fu Zhenchuan and my mother, so you indulged yourself in men. It wasn't until you just asked for a divorce that I realized this. I guessed wrong..."
Seeing his amber pupils becoming increasingly hot, Fu Mingshuang instinctively stepped back, but this made room for Lu Shiyu to move closer.
"Why would someone who takes marriage so lightly insist on divorcing me?" Lu Shiyu continued to move closer, supporting himself with his hands on the elastic bed. The sudden indentation made Fu Mingshuang move forward by inertia, and the tip of his nose touched his chin.
"Even those men were brought back by you for show, right?"
"No!" Fu Mingshuang turned her head away stubbornly, but Lu Shiyu pinched her chin and pulled her head back, forcing her to look into his eyes.
"Liar." His warm breath brushed against her face, and for a moment, Fu Mingshuang was stunned.
"The underwear on the sofa is not your size, and the number of condoms in the bedside table has not decreased, but these are just my guesses until you just filed for divorce..."
Lu Shiyu paused and said, "You want to divorce me because you are worried that the Fu family's affairs will affect my career."
"Is there any impact?" Fu Mingshuang asked anxiously.
"The impact is basically gone. Even if the Lu family relies on their power to force their way in, it will become a handle for political opponents."
"So..." Fu Mingshuang's eyes dimmed and she moved aside a little, "It's fine if we get divorced. It was quite strange when we got married anyway."
"I didn't say I wanted to go into politics." Lu Shiyu suddenly reached out and pulled Fu Mingshuang back to his side.
Fu Mingshuang was suspicious: "Why don't you take the smooth road that the Lu family has paved for you since you were a child?"
"Remember? I said I would use you to take advantage of the situation and do three things to resist my mother. This is the third one."
"You don't want to be a diplomat? Then what are you going to do?"
"I don't know..." Lu Shiyu said with a relaxed expression, "Being a translator shouldn't mean I'll starve to death, right?"
"You're really funny..." Fu Mingshuang moved to the side again, "You don't want to take the broad and open road, but insist on taking the bumpy and muddy road."
This time, Lu Shiyu did not pull Fu Mingshuang back, but took the initiative to approach her.
"Fu Mingshuang, are you crazy?"
"What?!" Fu Mingshuang's voice rose an octave, "Why are you suddenly cursing at me out of the blue?" The ending tone rose, with a hint of grievance.
Lu Shiyu's eyes held a playful smile. "Didn't you say you just can't stand people like us walking on the smooth road? Didn't you say you were determined to pull me down from the altar to accompany you? Are you crazy or soft-hearted? Choose one."
"You're the one going crazy. I just want to beat you up right now."
"That means being soft-hearted." Lu Shiyu helped her choose.
"Bah!" Fu Mingshuang deliberately spit on Lu Shiyu's face.
"That's not how you exchange saliva." Lu Shiyu took advantage of her unpreparedness and pecked her lips.
"You scoundrel!" Fu Mingshuang could only cover her mouth and curse him.
They had kissed countless times and even had sex many times, but just a light kiss made Fu Mingshuang's ears inexplicably red.
"Aren't you going to tear me apart? What will you do after you tear me apart? What will you find inside?" Lu Shiyu grabbed Fu Mingshuang's hand and placed it on his heart.
"Good or bad?"
"It's broken, and the inside is rotten." Fu Mingshuang said gritting his teeth.
"so what?"
"You are dirty, I don't want you anymore." Fu Mingshuang wanted to push him away, but couldn't.
"Bastard!" Lu Shiyu said these two short words with great force! After holding a grudge against her for so long, he finally had the chance to return these two words to her.
"What have I done to you?!" Fu Mingshuang also has times when she feels wronged.
"You barged into my life without my consent and dragged me into this mess. Now, not only do you despise me, but you're also presumptuously trying to deify me without even asking for my opinion."
Lu Shiyu raised his chin and looked at her with disdain: "What? You abandoned me after hooking me up? If this isn't a scumbag, what is it?"
Fu Mingshuang was speechless. She had previously called Lu Shiyu a scumbag, but that was entirely based on her own mood and random talk. But when Lu Shiyu called her a scumbag, his words were well-reasoned and coherent.
"Fu Mingshuang..." Lu Shiyu reminded her with a cold face:
"Don't do the kind of thing where I say nothing, just silently sacrifice for you and then leave. Even a dog would hate that kind of plot in a melodramatic novel. Don't be so self-satisfied, don't be a saint. You're not. Your character is a villain. Don't get carried away."
"...Aren't you stuck in the quagmire all by yourself and unable to get out? Chi Yan has your second sister to pull him out, and since I've been dragged into the quagmire by you, I will also find a way to lift you out."
And then what? Will you replace me and stay in the mire alone?
Lu Shiyu, I regret it.
I shouldn't have provoked you in the first place. Maybe you could still be wearing an exquisite mask and sitting on your altar with dignity.
"I'm sorry, Lu Shiyu..." Fu Mingshuang's eyes darkened, but he pretended to be relaxed. "I've always been a lone wolf, and I'm not used to leading people."
"That's why we have to get married. We have to use the law to bind two people who are not used to each other at first." Lu Shiyu looked at her steadily.
Fu Mingshuang opened her mouth, she didn't know how to refute. Her brain was already sticky with complicated emotions and she couldn't think at all.
Fortunately, Lu Shiyu helped her summarize: "This matter is very simple. You don't care about marriage, and I don't care about the impact of marriage on me. In short: there is no need for divorce."
With a "bang", it was like the coffin was closed and the verdict was finalized.
"It's late. Go take a shower and go to bed first. Don't think about unnecessary things." Lu Shiyu pushed Fu Mingshuang, who was still in a daze.
"You want me to help you?"
"Okay, I understand these four words." Fu Mingshuang hurriedly got up and went into the bathroom.
Lu Shiyu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the rustling sound of running water in the bathroom.
He had managed to persuade his wife to come down...for now...
The situation is precarious and Fu Mingshuang may regret it at any time.
If some knots are not completely untied, she will just use brute force, just like she did with her own tangled hair, and both sides will end up hurting each other.
What he had to do was to untie the knot bit by bit before her.
At this time, Lu Shiyu received a familiar call.
"Minister Xu..."
"Ayu, I heard that you refused to study with me in the fall."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Xu. I've thought about it and I think the path of diplomacy isn't right for me."
"I can see you enjoy this line of work. You're calmer than your peers and have a deep-seated pride. You're well-suited to diplomacy. Would you really consider it? This is the only place our department has for you at your school."
"I cherish and am grateful for my experience in Country M, but I have other things I care about..."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Shiyu stared at the bizarre scene outside the window in a daze, then turned around and saw Fu Mingshuang, who had just finished taking a shower and was wearing his own loose shirt.
Even though she had stayed at my house many times, there were still no clothes of hers here, as if she was always just a passer-by and never stayed.
Lu Shiyu pulled her and blew her dripping long hair dry.
The hair dryer was buzzing, very noisy, but it made Fu Mingshuang seem very quiet.
The moment the hair dryer was turned off, all around was quiet, but Fu Mingshuang spoke up: "Don't you like it very much? Why refuse?"
As expected, she heard her own conversation. Lu Shiyu put down the hair dryer and said calmly:
“There are many other things I like.”
Fu Mingshuang didn't have time to delve into the hidden meanings of this sentence. She only cared about persuading the other party: "You should resist Ling Xiuzhu, but don't resist just for the sake of resistance and lose everything you love."
Lu Shiyu lowered his eyes and wrapped the hair dryer's wire around the hair dryer in circles without responding to Fu Mingshuang's words.
"Lu Shiyu..." She held his face and made him look at her. "Have you seen clearly what you feel? You must be true to your heart."
"What about you, Fu Mingshuang?" Lu Shiyu held her hand, his eyes fixed on her lips. Unable to conceal his palpitations, he slowly approached: "Do you see clearly into your own heart?"
At the moment when the kiss was about to begin, Fu Mingshuang turned her head away.
"It's your turn to take a shower." She lowered her voice.
"Will you run away?"
"No, I'll wait for you." Fu Mingshuang raised his eyes and looked at Lu Shiyu firmly.
Lu Shiyu walked into the bathroom, took a shower, and returned to the living room. Fu Mingshuang had already left.
There was a note on the coffee table with a line of words scribbled on it:
[We've made an appointment to meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau on the 10th of next month, at 4 p.m.]
Lu Shiyu crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
