Fu Siye suddenly narrowed his eyes, "Mu Yinyin, are you threatening me?"
Mu Yinyin laughed in exasperation, "Threatening you, CEO Fu, how dare I? I'm merely stating the facts."
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
Right after Mu Yinyin's words, Nan Shiqing called Fu Siye.
Fu Siye frowned slightly, cast a cold glance at Mu Yinyin, and answered Nan Shiqing's call.
"Shiqing."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Mu Yinyin's eyes. She understood that his gaze just now was a warning, telling her not to spout nonsense while he was on the phone, as he had already informed her who was calling. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Immediately after, Nan Shiqing's tearful plea came through: "Siye, where are you? I'm so scared. A lunatic just came in and said I was his wife. I don't know him. Although the nurses drove him away, I'm still worried he might come back. Can you come and stay with me?"
Nan Shiqing was crying as pitifully as she possibly could.
Upon hearing this, Fu Siye's expression became even more stern, dark, and cold than when Mu Yinyin had angered him.
"Are you still in the hospital room? Find a few more medical staff to stay with you. I'll be there shortly."
Without waiting for a response from the other end, he hung up the phone. Fu Siye stood up, cast another cold glance at Mu Yinyin, and said sternly, "Mu Yinyin, this is my final warning. Behave yourself!"
Fu Siye dropped the words without courtesy and turned to leave.
However, the ferocity in his dark eyes as he departed remained deeply imprinted in Mu Yinyin's mind even after he was gone.
For Nan Shiqing, he could threaten her like this.
It was amusing.
Should she perhaps play a role in bringing these two together?
"Are you alright?"
As she was thinking, Jiang Ling rushed in. His anxious tone instantly pulled her thoughts back.
Although Jiang Ling was not in the office, he had been concerned about Mu Yinyin outside. Knowing their past marital relationship, he feared that Mu Yinyin might be in trouble.
Mu Yinyin shook her head and gave a relieved, light laugh, "I'm fine."
Jiang Ling did not immediately respond to Mu Yinyin's words, but his expression was one of sorrow and bitterness.
Fine?
It was a lie, a way to prevent others from worrying!
Jiang Ling pursed his lips, then said haltingly, "Yinyin, from the time you proposed cooperation to now, there has been no progress. If it's not working out, perhaps we should just drop it!"
"Boss Jiang, giving up halfway through a cooperation isn't like you," Mu Yinyin said with a light, teasing smile.
Jiang Ling's expression remained unchanged, "To negotiate cooperation with someone like him is exhausting, and most importantly, I feel like he's just finding ways to torment you."
Jiang Ling knew a lot about their past, so he felt even more heartache for the girl before him.
After a pause, he spoke again, "You are already divorced. There is no need to continue being entangled with him. Without Fu Siye, we can find other clients."
This was Jiang Ling's thought; he didn't want to see Mu Yinyin in such a difficult position because of Fu Siye.
Mu Yinyin shook her head, still wearing a smile, "It's not entanglement. He and I are just discussing cooperation. We had a small argument just now, but it was definitely not about work."
Seeing that Jiang Ling was about to say more, she quickly interjected, "Jiang Ling, I know you are worried about me, but don't worry. I've been foolish once, and I won't be foolish a second time. I won't allow myself to be controlled by Fu Siye again."
By the end, Mu Yinyin's expression became resolute.
Moreover, for this cooperation, it had to be Fu Corporation; others would not do. Jiang Ling saying that just now was merely to comfort her.
Jiang Ling's gaze paused, and he finally sighed.
Mu Yinyin said so, and he certainly hoped she would act accordingly.
But after three years of marriage, Mu Yinyin had thrown herself into her marriage with Fu Siye wholeheartedly. She was the one who had loved him the most.
How could someone who had genuinely loved be able to let go so easily?
Not hearing Jiang Ling's response, Mu Yinyin also sensed his worry from his silent expression.
Mu Yinyin smiled and changed the subject, "Boss, didn't you say we were going to meet the cooperation partner? If we don't leave soon, the partner might get angry!"
How could Jiang Ling not notice her deliberate attempt to shift the topic?
Jiang Ling stood firm, his expression serious, "Yinyin, I don't want to see that scumbag Fu Siye hurt you anymore. So, between you and the cooperation, you are the most important."
Mu Yinyin knew the friendship between the four of them. If it were her, she would naturally prioritize people too.
However, on the other hand, Fanxing needed this cooperation to move forward.
At least Fu Siye hadn't said they were terminating the cooperation, right?
She nodded, "I understand what you're saying. But let's wait and see. If it really doesn't work out, I'll withdraw. What we should do now is to meet the cooperation partner."
Seeing that Mu Yinyin didn't want to talk about Fu Siye anymore, Jiang Ling didn't press the matter.
Subsequently, the two of them set off together.
...
Fu Siye arrived at the hospital in the shortest possible time.
Nan Shiqing's hospital room was surrounded by many medical staff, and He Xia was staying close by Nan Shiqing's side. Nan Shiqing sat alone on the hospital bed, hugging her knees.
Her dark hair fell forward, obscuring her face, but her body could be seen trembling violently as if from a sieve.
He Xia was the first to spot Fu Siye. Her eyes lit up with excitement; finally, Fu Siye had arrived.
"Mr. Fu, you're finally here!"
Hearing the voice, Nan Shiqing, who had been hugging herself, finally looked up. Upon seeing that the person opposite was indeed Fu Siye, she quickly rushed towards him, her voice trembling, "Siye, I'm so scared. I don't know where that person came from. I've never met anyone like him. Why did he come and call me his wife? If it weren't for the people in the hospital, I don't know where this madman would have taken me..."
Nan Shiqing cried with heart-wrenching sobs. Fu Siye placed his hand on her back, like a gentleman, patting her gently, yet he could still feel Nan Shiqing's entire body trembling.
This incident with the madman had truly frightened her.
"I'll check the surveillance footage later. A lunatic wouldn't just appear in your room out of nowhere. I'll have people investigate thoroughly and will not let anyone who tried to harm you get away with it!"
A cold and fierce look flashed in Fu Siye's eyes.
For a fleeting moment, he thought of the resolute Mu Yinyin.
He Xia's expression was complex, and she sighed, "Shiqing has always done charity work and got along well with her classmates at school. She's never offended anyone. Although the press conference was met with a lot of crazy criticism from netizens, those netizens couldn't possibly have stooped so low as to send a madman to harm Shiqing, right?"
