Cheng Xuhui slapped his arm forcefully, attempting to intimidate Fu Siye with this gesture, but the man merely cast a cold glance at him.
"What? Did your plan fall through, so you're upset? Did you think a woman like this was within your reach?"
"Wishful thinking!"
Fu Siye's voice, like a king's, exuded an imposing aura that immediately flustered Cheng Xuhui. Knowing he was no match, he shifted his gaze to Mu Yinyin, who had remained silent.
"Yinyin, who is he?"
"Fu Siye!"
Mu Yinyin answered truthfully.
Fu Siye's name was known throughout the city; his mere presence was enough to command respect. Cheng Xuhui awkwardly pursed his lips, still hoping to snatch a woman from Fu Siye's grasp.
If he succeeded, his name would go down in history. If he failed, he would at least use the opportunity to extort a substantial sum from Old Mrs. Shu.
"So, you two..."
He was shrewd, asking his question indirectly.
Mu Yinyin raised her eyes to meet Fu Siye's dark pupils, a smirk playing on her lips. "We're already divorced. Mr. Cheng, you don't mind that I've had an imperfect marriage, do you!"
Thanks to Fu Siye's appearance, Mu Yinyin found herself looking favorably upon Cheng Xuhui. She could use him to retaliate against Fu Siye, thus erasing the disgust she had just felt.
"I don't mind at all, of course not. Miss Yinyin is so beautiful; having a past is perfectly normal."
Cheng Xuhui's face lit up with joy, nearly broadcasting his lecherous intentions. He failed to notice Fu Siye's darkening complexion.
To retaliate against him, she was even willing to use another man as a prop!
"However!" Mu Yinyin's tone shifted, and the smile in her eyes vanished. "Even if I have been married, you are still not worthy of me! I'm not interested in you. Goodbye."
Mu Yinyin left with a cold laugh. What kind of man was he, thinking he could lay claim to her? He should take a look at himself in the mirror!
Before either man could react, she turned and strode away with a light step.
Fu Siye's cold gaze followed her retreating figure. With a wave of his hand, he stopped Cheng Xuhui, who was about to chase after her for an explanation.
"I'm warning you, stay away from her!"
The man's voice was filled with threat, his dark pupils fixed on Cheng Xuhui like those of a viper.
—
Outside the restaurant, Mu Yinyin stared blankly at her car. The driver blocking her car was none other than Fu Siye. She could recognize his car, even if it were dismantled into pieces.
She pulled out her phone and without hesitation dialed the number to report illegal parking.
After completing her call, Mu Yinyin clapped her hands and turned to leave, only to bump directly into Fu Siye's embrace.
So, this scheming man had been watching her report him from behind the entire time? And he could remain so calm? His self-control was truly admirable.
"Do you think that by doing this, I'll forgive you, agree to your terms, and get back together with you?" Mu Yinyin said with a cold laugh, pushing Fu Siye away.
However, Fu Siye's strength was too great; she couldn't budge him.
Fu Siye's low, husky voice whispered into Mu Yinyin's ear. He even moved a step closer to her. "I'll deal with that scumbag for you. For now, you'll come with me."
Saying this, Fu Siye reached out to take Mu Yinyin's hand, but she was unwilling.
However, she wasn't as strong as Fu Siye.
At that moment, Old Mrs. Shu appeared before Mu Yinyin and Fu Siye.
Before Old Mrs. Shu could utter a word, Fu Siye quickly released Mu Yinyin's hand.
"Yinyin, go to my car first," Old Mrs. Shu said, nodding towards Mu Yinyin.
Mu Yinyin then got into the old lady's car.
Only the old lady and Fu Siye remained on the spot.
The old lady's gaze was sharp. "Mr. Fu, aren't you and Yinyin divorced? Don't you think this is going too far?"
Fu Siye knew precisely what the old lady was referring to.
However, since he had decided to reconcile with Mu Yinyin, he naturally wouldn't care about such things.
Fu Siye spoke calmly, "Mrs. Shu, I understand what you're saying. But, between her and me, it's a misunderstanding, a missed opportunity. Now, we need to resolve that misunderstanding and missed opportunity."
Old Mrs. Shu seemed to hear the greatest joke in the world. "You think you can just reconcile and resolve misunderstandings whenever you please?"
"Fu Siye, who do you think you are?"
Old Mrs. Shu showed no leniency towards Fu Siye.
This was the first time Fu Siye had been accused so directly. Old Mrs. Shu's words were even harsher than anything Mu Yinyin had said before.
But what could he say?
"I don't think I'm anything. I just know that after something happens, you have to make amends immediately. Right now, I just want to..."
"Don't say another word. Yinyin will never consider you again, even if she remarries." Before Fu Siye could finish, Old Mrs. Shu angrily interrupted him.
She believed Yinyin wouldn't consider Fu Siye, and moreover, she even wanted to take action against Fu Siye. After all, her Shu family would not tolerate being bullied like this!
Fu Siye could understand the old lady's anger. After all, Mu Yinyin was her granddaughter, lost for many years.
But then again, if he stopped his thoughts and actions just because he cared about what the old lady said, what would his previous intentions amount to?
Fu Siye pursed his lips. He then cut straight to the point. "The blind dates you introduced her to—aren't you pushing her into a fiery pit?"
Men like that were worse than Qi Mo, worse than Lu Sinian, and even worse than Jiang Ling!
Seeing Fu Siye's anger, Old Mrs. Shu realized that the man named Cheng was not right.
But no matter how wrong he was, Fu Siye had no right to dictate.
She sternly retorted to Fu Siye, "You should manage yourself first!"
With that, the old lady left without looking back.
After getting into the car, the old lady asked Mu Yinyin about the blind date. "Do you really not like that person?"
Mu Yinyin didn't hide anything from the old lady. "No, that person has terrible character. Grandma, please don't introduce me to any more blind dates. I really have no intention of getting married or dating."
Seeing Mu Yinyin's persistence, the old lady had nothing more to say.
"Alright, I won't introduce you to any more blind dates from now on."
The old lady kept her word and did not introduce anyone else. This particular man, because Fu Siye disliked him, Fu Siye decisively took action to resolve the matter.
From that day on, this man never appeared before Mu Yinyin again.
After Qi Mo and Ai Mi confirmed their transaction, both families immediately announced their relationship.
Li Chuan and Gu Xiaoqi also planned a trip, intending to travel and get married.
As for Jiang Ling, he remained at Fanxing, immersing himself in his work.
Meanwhile, Lu Sinian had traveled from China to be by Mu Yinyin's side.
