Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Fu Lingye looked and smiled gently at the woman who had a blanket tightly wrapped around herself.

He stretched out his hand to pull off her blanket and said, “Be careful not to suffocate the child.”

Mu Tongrui pulled the blanket open, her eyes glaring at him. She huffed and said, “You only know to

take care of the baby. I'm going to sleep now, so don't disturb me.”

She turned around so her back was facing him.

Fu Lingye furrowed his brows slightly and moved towards Mu Tongrui. He whispered to her ear, “Don't

you want to know me full well?”

Mu Tongrui looked back at him and said, “How?”

It was only possible to understand him bit by bit through daily life in the future, right?

But the man had already lowered his head to kiss her. “To know me full well from head to toe... There's

no method faster than this... Want to try it out?”

“...”

After being kissed, Mu Tongrui's face was bright red. “Fu Lingye... you mob!”

Who wanted to use this method to understand him completely?

The man mischievously looked at her slightly tempted face. “You really don't want to? But to my

knowledge, you kind of like it too, right?”

“...”

Mu Tongrui wanted to seal this man's mouth with tape!

She finally realized that Fu Lingye was only cold superficially. He seemed as though he was a Saint on

the surface, but in private, he was completely different. He was essentially a wolf in sheep's clothing!

However, Fu Lingye believed that having tasted the marrow, the longing for its savor grows. He felt like

it would be too torturous to go 'vegetarian' for ten months more.

It was at least bearable when he had never experienced the delicious taste of 'meat', but now that he

had, he could not bear being a virtuous monk for the next ten months.

“Rui, you seem to like it if I come from the back.”

“...”

Mu Tongrui felt pins and needles as her hand was held up and gently kissed by Fu Lingye. There was

absolutely nothing inherently sexual about his actions. However, the desire he emanated was

especially tempting.

“I'm actually going to sleep.” Mu Tongrui said diffidently.

How would she be able to go to sleep now that she was tempted by him?

Fu Lingye pulled on her little hand and moved it beneath his body, his dark eyes sparkling. “Be good,

you can sleep after you help me resolve this.”

“...”

After more than an hour, Mu Tongrui's hand was so sore it was going numb.

Fu Lingye lasted for such a long time!

As she thought about his 'passion' for such things, she got curious about whether he did 'it' frequently

with his ex-girlfriends too. She wanted to ask him, but she got too tired and fell asleep in his arms.

...

Early the next morning, not long after Fu Lingye had gone to the office, Mu Tongrui's abdomen started

cramping. The pain was so excruciating she wasn't able to get up.

She instinctively touched her abdomen. Her face went pale when she realized that there might be a

problem with the baby.

She picked up the phone to call Fu Lingye.

Fu Lingye was in the middle of a meeting when he received the call.

When he saw that it was Mu Tongrui calling, he furrowed his brows and quickly picked up.

“Lingye... my stomach suddenly hurts a lot...”

Fu Lingye paused, stunned. Then, he immediately told Xu Kun, who was by his side, “Call an

ambulance to Repulse Bay Villa.”

Xu Kun felt like something was amiss and hurried to call an ambulance.

Fu Lingye didn't even end the meeting before walking out of the meeting room while clutching his

phone with a serious expression.

All the higher-ups were confused.

“Mr. Xu, what exactly happened?”

“Yes, why is Mr. Fu so nervous?”

Xu Kun explained, “Boss has some private matters, so that's all for the meeting today.”

Then, Xu Kun turned around to leave the meeting room and catch up with Fu Lingye.

While holding the phone, Fu Lingye told Mu Tongrui, who was on the other end, “I already called an

ambulance over. I'm coming over now, so don't hang up.”

Mu Tongrui was collapsed on a table with her phone in her hand. While talking to Fu Lingye, her voice

was quite weak. “Lingye, I'm a little scared.”

“Don't imagine things. Everything will be fine.”

In the car, Xu Kun drove while Fu Lingye stayed on the call with Mu Tongrui.

Fu Lingye only gradually started to relax after he started hearing ambulance sirens blaring at the end of

the call.

“Lingye, I'll hang up now. The ambulance is here.”

“Yeah, I'll be at the hospital soon. Don't be afraid.”

...

When Mu Tongrui was sent to the hospital, it was coincidentally seen by Jiang Xinghe. He randomly

grabbed a doctor to ask, “What happened to that girl?”

“She's one month pregnant and her stomach's hurting.”

Jiang Xinghe furrowed his brows. The doctor curiously asked, “Doctor Jiang, do you know her?”

Jiang Xinghe uttered a soft 'yeah' and said, “It's a good friend's wife. Please arrange for Dr. Liu to go

over and check on her. I'll be heading there immediately too.”

The doctor froze. It seemed like this Mu Tongrui was on very good terms with Doctor Jiang, so he

responded hurriedly, “Yes, I'll call Dr. Liu immediately!”

Jiang Xinghe stuffed his hands into his pockets and turned towards his office. Suddenly, a woman's

sweet voice sounded behind him.

“Master!”

Jiang Xinghe's black eyes flickered as he turned to see a petite girl running towards him. She looked

even more petite because she was wearing oversized scrubs that seemed to engulf her.

“Master, I've checked on all the wards you told me to check. Can I take half a day off?”

Jiang Xinghe's face was stoic. “Take half a day off for what?”

The girl who stood in front of him smiled embarrassedly. “Um... it's my boyfriend's birthday today and I

want to celebrate it with him this afternoon.”

Looking at the stoic-looking 'Master' in front of her, Lu Jiahe showed no signs of backing down. She

rushed to continue, “Oh, Master, I've completed everything you told me to do today. So could I please

take a half a day off today? I'll make it up to you tomorrow.”

Jiang Xinghe's face darkened as he pursed his mouth. He turned coldly and said, “Come with me to the

emergency room!”

“...”

Lu Jiahe grabbed her hair frustratedly. It was so unlucky that she got such a strict Master for her

internship!

The man who was walking in front of her had long legs and a long stride. Lu Jiahe hurried to catch up

with him. She tried to win his favor by saying, “Master, I'm just taking half a day off. Is that possible?”

“Lu Jiahe, your internship report is still with me. The final remarks of the report are still up to me.”

“...”

Lu Jiahe pouted. She secretly thought: It was just taking some time off, so why was he being so petty

about it?

Why was I assigned to intern under this Hades Jiang? Such bad luck!

...

Mu Tongrui lay in the emergency room, her face slightly pale.

After Dr. Liu conducted a series of checks on her, Jiang Xinghe brought Lu Jiahe inside the room.

When Lu Jiahe saw Mu Tongrui lying on the hospital bed, she first froze. Then, she shouted with her

eyes ablaze, “Tongrui?!”

Mu Tongrui turned around at the sound of her voice. She was a little surprised she would see her high

school classmate at the hospital. “Jiahe, why are you here!”

Jiang Xinghe furrowed his brows and said, “You two know each other?”

Lu Jiahe happily introduced Mu Tongrui to Jiang Xinghe, “Master, this is my high school desk mate, Mu

Tongrui.”

At this moment, Fu Lingye arrived. He took long strides into the room from outside and there was worry

written all over his usually calm face. “Rui.”

He walked past the hospital staff and took large steps to get to Mu Tongrui. He furrowed his brows and

asked, “How is it? Does it still hurt?”

Mu Tongrui shook her head and said, “It's better now. It's not hurting as much as before.”

Fu Lingye brushed his hands through her hair and asked the doctor, “How's my wife's condition?”

While standing at the side, Lu Jiahe's jaw dropped. Her high school desk mate had already become

someone's wife in the few years they had not met?

Jiang Xinghe cast a cold glimpse at her and Lu Jiahe silently closed her mouth.

Dr. Liu said, “There isn't any real problem. However, Ms. Mu's progesterone is a little low, and that

caused the pain in her abdomen. Right now, her level of progesterone is still considered normal.

However, the two of you still need to come regularly after this to follow up. If the progesterone keeps

falling and falls below a certain value, we might need to give her a progesterone injection.”

When he heard 'progesterone injection', Fu Lingye's dark eyes narrowed slightly.
