Chapter 38 - Sudden Concern

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

The removal of a tattoo was very painful, and even men would cry from the pain. However, Mu Ran gritted her teeth and did not make a sound from the beginning to the end.

Her face was so pale that it was almost transparent. When she stood up, she even staggered a little. Fortunately, Wang Man helped her up quickly.

Fu Ting looked at Mu Ran, and his expression was a little nervous. He even stretched out his hand slightly, but he still stopped where he was and did not ask any questions.

However, Miao Man, who was beside him, saw everything clearly.

He still had feeling for Mu Ran! Moreover, Miao Man had begged Fu Ting to attend the class reunion with her a few times before, but he had rejected her outright. He might not have appeared here today for her!

Moreover, Mu Ran had embarrassed her today.

Miao Man clenched her fists slightly. Although she did not show it on her face, her hatred for Mu Ran had deepened.

…

When Mu Ran returned home, she caught a fever.

Wang Man wanted to take care of her, but she had an important lawsuit case. She did not have time to take care Mu Ran.

“Mandy, it’s alright. I’ll go to sleep after I take the medicine. I’ll be fine after I wake up.” Mu Ran was curled up under the blanket. She was so weak that she could not even open her eyes. If she had known that it would be so painful to remove the tattoo, she would have asked for something else.

After Wang Man left, Mu Ran’s headache became even worse, and she felt dizzy.

At that moment, the phone rang.

“Who is it?”

Mu Ran struggled to speak, and her throat was very sore.

“Are you sick?”

When Mu Ran heard this voice, although her was having a splitting headache, she still regained some clarity. Her voice was cold. “Mr. Fu, why are you calling me at this time? Is there anything you want to tell me?”

“What’s wrong with you?”

Mu Ran felt that her illness seemed to be getting worse. She could actually hear a hint of nervousness.

She had a terrible headache. She just wanted to answer Fu Ting’s question as soon as possible so that she could hang up the phone and have a good sleep.

“It’s nothing. It’s probably because I didn’t treat the wound probably. Now it’s infected with bacteria, and I have a fever.” She paused and laughed at herself inaudibly, “That’s true. Why should I carve words on my shoulder? I really don’t care about my own body.”

The other end of the phone quieted down.

Just when Mu Ran thought Fu Ting had hung up the phone, his deep voice sounded again, “I know what the contract you gave to the Liu Corporation is. You don’t have to sign the contract with them. I’ll sign with you, and someone will follow up later. Of course, I don’t need you to guarantee me 6% of the return.”

“Huh?”

Mu Ran was confused. He didn’t understand why Fu Ting would let him to get involved in this mess.

But she quickly figured it out.

Liu Yan must have said something to Miao Man and begged her pitifully for help. She didn’t want her father knew about the dumb decision she had made. Miao Man had no choice but to ask Fu Ting for help. For Miao Man’s sake, Fu Ting simply took over this mess.

After all, Miao Man had agreed at that time. If the return on investment did not reach 6%, the Miao family would have to make up for it.

Although Mu Ran was confident that her project was far more profitable than that, there was no such thing as a foolproof business. By doing so, Fu Ting could guarantee that Miao Man would not have any risks.

From this perspective, he really loved Miao Man to death.

Mu Ran rubbed her chest. She could not tell if it was a headache or a heartache. She could only force a smile, “I see. Then I’ll definitely be willing to sign the contract with you, Mr. Fu. After all, no businessman in Haigang City would reject the offer from the Fu family.”

From a business point of view, signing the contract with Fu Ting had the highest profit and the lowest risk.

The Liu family was only the second-best choice.

“Okay.” Fu Ting snorted and silently hung up the phone.

Miao Man stood at the door and heard the phone call between Fu Ting and Mu Ran. She pursed her lips and subconsciously clenched her fists.

Fu Ting said on the phone that he was willing to sign the contract with Mu Ran without the guarantee of 6% profit. He was really indulgent to her.

Moreover, once the contract was signed, Mu Ran would have a legitimate reason to approach Fu Ting.

The more Miao Man thought about it, the angrier she got. She walked back to her room with a huff.

She dialed a number that was placed at the top of the phone.

“Dad, have you done with the things I asked you to do? When do you plan to publicize it? I want Mu Ran’s reputation to be ruined. Also, my birthday party will be held next week. Are you ready?”

Although Miao Qiang was a business magnate, he loved his only daughter. Even if Miao Man was a little willful sometimes, he would try his best to satisfy her.

“Don’t worry, Manman. Everything has been arranged..”
