Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Did you really forgive her?” Fu Ting’s tone was much gentler than usual.

“Yes.” Miao Man nodded and sighed softly, “Actually, Mu Ran was quite pitiful. She only looked for me because she hoped that I could leave you. She must have liked you too much, that’s why she couldn’t control her emotions at that time and pushed me down.”

Miao Man’s face turned pale. She seemed to recall the scene of her falling from the stairs, and she still had lingering fear in her heart.

Fu Ting gently patted her head and subconsciously slowed down his voice. “You’re always so kind and considerate of others.”

“But my father…” Miao Man looked into Fu Ting’s eyes, and even the tip of her nose was red from shyness. “I’ll think of a way to convince him. He dotes on me the most and will definitely listen to me.”

“However, I also have a small request.”

Miao Man bit her lip and moved forward.

Fu Ting smiled.

“Manman, you’re still the same as before. I remember that you mentioned that you liked to be short-tempered sometimes in the letter, and you also asked for some excessive requests. At that time, I even mocked you in the letter for being childish and cute.”

A rare gentle smile appeared on his habitually cold face.

Miao Man’s expression froze and was very unnatural, but she quickly recovered and glared at Fu Ting. “That was many years ago. Why are you bringing that up? That’s my dark history!”

When the young girl acted coquettishly, her face blushed cutely.

“Tell me, what do you want?” Fu Ting shook his head and said somewhat helplessly.

“I want to see Old Master Fu. I heard that his health isn’t very good. I also want to see him and have a chat with him. Of course, if it’s inconvenient, you can pretend that I didn’t say anything.”

Miao Man spoke quickly, and her eyes looked pitiful as she avoided Fu Ting’s gaze.

Fu Ting’s eyes darkened. Old Master Fu really liked Mu Ran, he would definitely not accept Miao Man. However, Miao Man was still the daughter-in-law of the Fu family, and she would meet Fu Qi sooner or later.

“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements.”

Miao Man smiled again and pulled Fu Ting upstairs. “I’m sleepy too. I need a good rest today.”

When they went upstairs, she looked at Fu Ting who was standing behind her. She deliberately missed her step and pretended to lose her balance.

Fu Ting reached out quickly to support Miao Man.

Miao Man leaned into Fu Ting’s arms and said pitifully and aggrievedly, “Ting, I may not be fully recovered yet. I didn’t step on it properly just now… but fortunately, you were here, or else I would have fallen again.”

Miao Man lowered her head and couldn’t see Fu Ting’s expression.

Fu Ting’s voice was indifferent as he carried Miao Man in his arms. “If you’re not well, you should rest in your room. Don’t force yourself to go downstairs.”

Miao Man nodded lightly and obediently leaned into Fu Ting’s arms, listening to the man’s heartbeat.

When they entered the room, Fu Ting placed her on the bed.

He did not stay any longer and was about to leave.

“Wait.” Miao Man called out to Fu Ting. Her face was even redder, and there was a layer of faint mist in her eyes. “Ting, can you stay here tonight and accompany me?”

Miao Man looked at Fu Ting with a pitiful and aggrieved expression.

If it were anyone else, they would not reject such a harmless and cute little bunny.

Fu Ting’s eyes darkened as he looked at Miao Man quietly.

“You’re not feeling well. It’s better for you to rest early.”

After he finished speaking indifferently, he turned around and left. He even did not forget to close the door for Miao Man.

Miao Man’s eyes were wide open, and she didn’t react for a long time.

She had already hinted very clearly just now!

It was impossible for Fu Ting not to receive her hint, and it was also impossible for him not to know what she wanted to do.

Miao Man rolled her eyes while swearing. It was as if she had changed into a different person. She was no longer as sensible and lovely as before.

She took out her phone and dialed a number.

“I don’t care what method you use. The day before my birthday party, you must make a concrete clue that prove Mu Ran pushed me down the stairs. You must make it known to the whole city! I want her to become a joke in Haigang City. She can’t stay here anymore!”

After that, she hung up the phone.

…

Mu Ran looked at the documents in front of her that were as tall as a hill and sighed with a slight headache.

After taking over the company, not only did she have to deal with those board members who had ulterior motives, but she also had to deal with all kinds of documents in the company. She knew that she could not afford to lose, so she read every document carefully, followed up every project personally, and watched every corner of the company with her own eyes.

She had stayed up for several nights, and she looked even more haggard..
