Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Actually, it wasn't that Fu Qingquan could completely take it lying down!

It was just that after he calmed down and thought it over, Fu Tianci was indeed not cut out for business!

Moreover, it had never been Fu Tianci's aspiration to manage the Kaide Corporation!

If he were to forcibly hand the Kaide Corporation to Fu Tianci, in the end, the Kaide Corporation might just end up destroyed in the hands of that woman Lu Qingmei!

It would be fine if Lu Qingmei were capable, but the truth was that she wasn't. She merely had ambitions and some means and ways, but she lacked the capabilities!

Lu Qingmei simply wasn't cut out for business. She lacked foresight, only wishing to guard what she had at present, focusing her efforts on engaging in internal strife to vie for what was already there.

Nothing done forcibly was going to be agreeable. Things were already set in stone, and what's more, at Fu Qingquan's age, he no longer had the mental energy to vie for it!

But Lu Qingmei didn't share the same thinking. She had stayed by Fu Qingquan and suppressed her indignation for so many years to become someone above the rest one day and become the person in power at the Kaide Corporation, not having to depend on the yearly dividends from her son's shares for a living!

Just as Fu Qingquan had known, Lu Qingmei had always been an ambitious woman. Lu Qingmei liked money, but what she liked more was the feeling of being in power. She had never liked being subordinate to others.

Hence Lu Qingmei was forcing Fu Tianci and Mu Mantong to get married. Even though Fu Tianci wasn't old enough to be legally married, Lu Qingmei still wanted him to live together with Mu Mantong, for them to develop their feelings. She felt that it would be even better if they could have a child together!

Mu Mantong was an only daughter. Lu Qingmei was counting on Old Master Mu standing out and giving her son a hand for the sake of his only daughter, helping Fu Tianci vie for the Kaide Corporation.

Mu Mantong would surely be agreeable to this proposal by Lu Qingmei, as she liked Fu Tianci very much to begin with.

As far as Old Master Mu was concerned, since the two kids were already engaged, if Mu Mantong could give birth to a child early on, he could teach his grandchild well while he still had the energy. That way, many years later, the grandchild would surely be able to make his Mu family proud.

Old Master Mu, Lu Qingmei, and Mu Mantong all had their own intentions. It was like they could simply decide this without asking Fu Tianci—the protagonist—for his opinion.

Fu Tianci didn't have the fondness of a boy towards a girl for Mu Mantong. Moreover, Fu Tianci himself was still a child. For Lu Qingmei to suddenly raise the issue of giving birth to a kid, Fu Tianci felt like he was struck by lightning!

He had refused several times, but it didn't work. Fu Tianci accidentally heard Lu Qingmei speaking on the phone, saying that she wanted to think of ways for him and Mu Mantong to cook the raw rice[1], to try and get Mu Mantong pregnant over the holiday. After all, it was easier for Mu Mantong to recover from childbirth at her age!

Upon hearing this, Fu Tianci panicked. He grabbed the opportunity while Lu Qingmei wasn't around to pack his luggage and flee.

But the world was so big, and Fu Tianci didn't know where he could go. In the chilly wind, Fu Tianci carried his luggage, and suddenly, the image of Fu Huai'an and Lin Nuan popped into his head. Without hesitation, he directly hailed a cab and headed over.

"Again?" Lin Nuan repeated the word that Fu Tianci had said and frowned.

Fu Tianci nodded, recounting the sequence of events to Fu Huai'an and Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan's brows knitted even more tightly. "This matter… is it also Old Master Fu's intention?"

The carefree Fu Tianci didn't think too much into this, but the meticulous Lin Nuan quickly figured out why Lu Qingmei was so anxious for Fu Tianci and Mu Mantong to get married and have a child.

Fu Huai'an was even more of a wily fox, so the minute Fu Tianci opened his mouth, he knew what was going on.

Without waiting for Fu Tianci to swallow his food and answer, Fu Huai'an said, "At this time, you should be carrying your luggage to your father's place."

Fu Tianci swallowed down the food in his mouth with much difficulty, causing him to pound his chest. "Am I causing you trouble by coming over here?"

"Not trouble, but you're still underage, so your parents are still your guardians. There's no one more suited to stand out and settle this matter than your father." There was a smile in Fu Huai'an's eyes. "Under this circumstance, your father might already have the intention to call off your engagement."

Although Fu Qingquan had deep thoughts, to Fu Huai'an, they weren't hard to guess.

Previously, Fu Qingquan had made Fu Tianci get engaged to the immobile only daughter of the Mu family of Pengcheng, and even agreed to conditions like that, because he had wanted to compete against Fu Huai'an. But now, Fu Tianci didn't have the intention to take over the Kaide Corporation, and Fu Huai'an had already entered the board of directors as the largest shareholder, becoming the chairman of the Kaide Corporation!

Therefore, why would Fu Qingquan find his son a crippled wife? And why would he want to honor those humiliating conditions set by the Mu family of Pengcheng?

Perhaps Fu Qingquan would only be too relieved to cancel the two kids' marriage agreement before they got married.

Fu Tianci gazed at Fu Huai'an, uncertainty in his tone. "But… my dad and Secretary Song were the ones who arranged for Mu Mantong and me to get engaged. Will my dad agree to let us call off the engagement?"

Lin Nuan understood what Fu Huai'an meant. Regarding how Fu Tianci got engaged to Mu Mantong, Lin Nuan had heard the story too. She said to Fu Tianci, "Why don't you call your father first? It'd be good for you to get a clear answer from him!"

"Let me eat my fill first…"

Fu Tianci picked up a xiaolongbao and stuffed it into his mouth, then motioned for the servants to refill his glass with more milk.

Not long after they finished breakfast, You Nainai came over with Little Candy.

Fu Tianci could tell from You Nainai and Lin Nuan's conversation that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an were going to the Green Mountain Villa to visit Ji Yun. He had originally wanted to tag along, but since they weren't even taking Tuan Tuan along, Fu Tianci was too embarrassed to raise the request.

Because he feared that Lu Qingmei would be able to locate him, Fu Tianci had turned off his phone and didn't dare turn it back on after he left. Hence, Fu Tianci had to borrow a phone from Lin Nuan to call Secretary Song.

When Secretary Song heard that Fu Tianci had left home again and went to Fu Huai'an's place, he couldn't help musing internally that Fu Tianci was truly extraordinarily trusting of Fu Huai'an.

Sometimes, Secretary Song even thought that if Fu Tianci would only trust his father, Fu Qingquan, half as much as he did Fu Huai'an, perhaps the relationship between the father and son wouldn't have gotten to this stage.

After Secretary Song informed Fu Qingquan about this, Fu Qingquan was quiet for a long while…

Ever since he was discharged from the hospital, Fu Qingquan moved into a villa in the suburbs. Since he and Old Madam Fu had fallen out, he couldn't return to the Fu family mansion. As for Lu Qingmei's place… Fu Qingquan didn't wish to listen to Lu Qingmei nag in his ears about snatching back the Kaide Corporation from Fu Huai'an.

In order to get some peace, Fu Qingquan went to the suburb villa. He hadn't expected Lu Qingmei to begin tormenting Fu Tianci again!

Fu Qingquan was silent for a long while before saying to Secretary Song, "Call Lu Qingmei!"

It wasn't as if Fu Qingquan wasn't aware of Lu Qingmei's ambitions. It was just that he hadn't expected her desire for power to have gotten to such an atrocious state…
