nWhen they reached Mo Wan’s room, Mo Rao chatted happily with her.

n

nHowever, Fu Ying’s messages kept popping up.

n

nAlthough she ignored it, her expression was getting worse.

n

nMo Wan saw this and understood.

n

nIt must be her blind son urging her! Didn’t he just want to accompany Qu Ru?

n

nHe even used Mo Rao as a cover.

n

n“Mom, I’m a little sleepy. I’ll go back and sleep first.” Mo Rao pretended to yawn.

n

n“Alright, Rao Rao. No matter what, you will always be a member of the Fu family.” Mo Wan looked at Mo Rao meaningfully.

n

nMo Rao’s heart warmed and she nodded.

n

nWhen she returned to her room, Fu Ying was already waiting for her.

n

n“Mo Rao, don’t make me unhappy!!”

n

nFu Ying grabbed Mo Rao’s wrist with great force, causing her face to turn pale from the pain.

n

n“I know you want to see Qu Ru. You can just go. Did I stop you?! Why do you have to use me as a cover when you’re going to see the woman you love? Fu Ying, are you a man or not?!”

n

nWhy did she have to suffer this? She was covering for the man she loved and sending him to see her love rival.

n

nShe, Mo Rao, wasn’t such a generous person!

n

nDid she not even have the right to be sad?

n

n“When you married me three years ago, you knew this day would come, didn’t you?” Fu Ying’s eyes were cold.

n

n“Yes, yes, yes. I was too stupid. Three years ago, I thought I could definitely make you fall in love with me. Since ten years ago, I…”

n

nBefore Mo Rao could finish speaking, Fu Ying’s phone rang.

n

nHe took the call.

n

nThen, his expression changed and he said gently, “Don’t be afraid, Xiao Ru. I’ll be right back.”

n

nAfter saying that, he hung up the phone and ordered Mo Rao coldly, “Go back with me!”

n

n“I’m not going back!” Mo Rao decided to fight to the end today.

n

nWhen she returned, she would be alone in the cold room. Fu Ying wouldn’t accompany her.

n

n“Mo Rao, I said not to make me unhappy. You have Grandma and the others protecting you, but your uncle doesn’t. Do you understand? I have countless methods to make him die without a burial place!”

n

nFu Ying was completely enraged. He grabbed her chin and threatened her fiercely.

n

nMo Rao instantly froze, and the light in her eyes disappeared.

n

n“I’ll wait for you in the car. Think it through in five minutes. If you don’t come down, you’ll bear the consequences yourself!” Fu Ying let go of Mo Rao and went downstairs.

n

nMo Rao’s body softened and she almost fell off the wall.

n

nTears welled up in her eyes. She bit her lips and tried her best not to cry. Otherwise, Old Madam Fu and Mo Wan would hear her.

n

nShe didn’t expect Fu Ying to be so ruthless to her for Qu Ru’s sake.

n

nThat’s right. She had forgotten her identity. She was just Qu Ru’s replacement. What right did she have to go against Fu Ying?

n

nShe tried her best to calm down. After forcing back her tears, she walked downstairs in unsteady steps.

n

nFu Ying was waiting in the car. When he saw her come down, he didn’t say anything.

n

nMo Rao silently opened the backseat door and went in. She had always been sitting in the front passenger seat in the past. Now, she knew very well that she shouldn’t occupy this seat anymore.

n

nHer change made Fu Ying’s heart jump. He felt uncomfortable again.

n

nWas this a silent protest?

n

nBut he didn’t like it at all and he didn’t want to spoil her.

n

nHe pretended not to notice and drove off.

n

nThe two of them didn’t speak a word along the way. In the past, Mo Rao would always chat non-stop about the entertainment news, television dramas, and which dishes she had learned to cook.

n

nBut now, she had changed.

n

nShe was as silent as a stone statue.

n

nShe should have been aware of her identity, but she always had delusions that she shouldn’t have had.

n

nSuddenly, Fu Ying’s phone rang again. It was Qu Ru.

n

n“What’s wrong? Don’t cry, Xiao Ru. I’ll be right there!” Fu Ying’s tone instantly became anxious. He didn’t even want to send Mo Rao back first.

n

nAfter hanging up, he stopped the car and ordered Mo Rao, “Get down. I’ll get Gu Hai to pick you up later!”

n

nMo Rao’s heart ached and she didn’t move.

n

n“I asked you to get down!” Fu Ying ordered again with a cold tone.

n

nMo Rao was dejected. “It’s almost midnight now. Aren’t you afraid that something will happen to me if you let a woman get off halfway?”

n

nWas her safety really not important at all?

n

n“Gu Hai will be here soon. You can wait by the side of the road for a while.” Fu Ying didn’t change his mind at all.

n

nMo Rao smiled bitterly. Danger only required a minute to arise. No matter how fast Gu Hai was, she still had to risk her life and wait.

n

nBut there was no need to argue. She undid her seatbelt and got out of the car silently.
