Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Chapter 200

After they arrived at the entrance of Chang Sheng, Mu Tongrui truly felt like it was a waste of Fu Lingye's ability to help her ask for her salary. “Are we really going to ask for my salary?”

The man got off the car straight away. His eyes were filled with determination, so Mu Tongrui got off the car with him.

Xu Kun walked at the back and said, “Chang Sheng's boss is Feng Dehuai. A few years ago he had some dealings in Bei City, Boss should probably remember his face.”

Fu Lingye remembered this person. They had met a long time ago in Bei City. He was extremely cunning, but lacking in courage, so it was destined that his business would never take off. For someone to do business, not only did they need the brains and connections, but they also needed courage. There were too many emerging developments in Bei City these few years, and Feng Dehuai couldn't compete with the big companies, so he had to pack up, go home to S City and start Chang Sheng.

After they entered Chang Sheng, they immediately saw Li Hao. Once Li Hao saw Mu Tongrui, he was enraged all again. He gritted his teeth, glared at her, and said, “Mu Tongrui, how dare you come to the company!”

Mu Tongrui was surprisingly not nervous at all. It was probably because she had strong support next to her, so she felt especially bold. “Manager Li, I'm here to complete the resignation process.”

Li Hao scoffed. “Resignation process? You don't need to do that because you've already been fired last night!”

Fu Lingye's gaze was sharp yet cold. “Your company should at least give a reason when you fire workers, right?”

“Reason?” Li Hao pointed at Mu Tongrui. “Last night she somehow messed up a deal that was nearly closed and made me and my company lose a large sum of money. This is the reason!”

“It's common to have deals fall through. I guess it is acceptable to fire workers due to failed deals, but they should be given the service fee they deserve.

Li Hao scoffed and said, “You still want your salary after you've made such a giant mess? Dream on!”

When Mu Tongrui had just arrived at the company, she had thought that Li Hao was quite friendly and kind. However, in only one day, Li Hao's image had completely collapsed. He was truly too stingy. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Fu Lingye raised his chin and signaled Xu Kun. “Go call Chairman Feng.”

Xu Kun nodded. “Yes.”

Li Hao only started to scrutinize the man before him after hearing Fu Lingye's tone. This man wore a black windbreaker, and inside the windbreaker was a high-quality white shirt. There was an expensive belt around the shirt, and his expensive suit pants wrapped around his slender legs elegantly. He stood there, as refreshing as a breeze, essentially becoming a scenery on his own. What was most striking was the upper-class aura that he emanated and how he would not allow himself to be underestimated by others.

This man actually knew Mr. Feng? Could it be that he has some powerful background?

After they arrived at the entrance of Chang Sheng, Mu Tongrui truly felt like it was a waste of Fu Lingye's ability to help her ask for her salary. “Are we really going to ask for my salary?”

But since Mu Tongrui came to Chang Sheng to be a lowly saleswoman, how would it be possible that she knew someone so powerful?

Li Hao was immediately devoid of fear after going through his thought process. He felt that this man was all talk and that he had probably known Mr. Feng's name because Mu Tongrui had told him. This man was just trying to scare him. If he was really that powerful, why would he be so obsessed with the salary for only a month?

After thinking for a while, Li Hao felt even bolder. He glanced at the belt on Fu Lingye's waist and coldly scoffed. It must be pirated!

Chang Sheng wasn't big, so everyone came to see what the commotion was all about.

There were people watching the commotion and their discussion was quite loud.

“Is that man Mu's boyfriend? Why didn't she talk about him before?”

“That's right, if that's really her boyfriend, he's so handsome!”

“This man is so handsome I can't take my eyes off him!”

Of course, Mu Tongrui could hear all the discussion going on and how it was all about praising Fu Lingye. She felt a little proud that such a handsome man was standing up for her. In fact, he even called himself her man, so the sweetness in her heart was only compounding itself over and over to the point where she could almost drown it in.

Fu Lingye felt the hand that was holding his, exerted more pressure to interlock their fingers.

After a short while, Feng Dehuai arrived. Once he saw Fu Lingye, not only was he stirred up but he was in awe. “Why did President Fu suddenly come and grace my humble company with your presence? Please forgive me for not greeting you properly! What is your business here in S City?”

Li Hao, who was standing at the side, felt like something was amiss. Is this man powerful? Even Chairman Feng was behaving so politely towards him?

Mu Tongrui indifferently looked at the woman next to him and said, “I came to S City to bring my wife home.”

Mu Tongrui said, “....”

Fu Lingye felt the hand that was inside his palm tremble slightly.

Feng Dehuai was puzzled. Why would Fu Lingye go to his company to pick his wife up?

“Is President Fu married? Has President Fu picked up Mrs. Fu?”

Fu Lingye's face didn't change one bit. He calmly answered, “I picked her up yesterday, but she suffered quite a bit and cried in my arms for a long time. As her husband, I need to seek justice for her.”

“...”

Mu Tongrui eyes twitched. When did she cry for a long time in his arms?

But that sentence 'I need to seek justice for her' was really sweet for Mu Tongrui. Her ears went bright red.

Feng Dehuai froze and came back to his senses. He blankly looked at Mu Tongrui, who was standing beside Fu Lingye. He then looked at their interlocked hands in disbelief. Wasn't this Mu Tongrui just a lowly saleswoman who joined their company less than a month ago?

Also, he remembered very clearly that his company had not hired such a young and pretty saleswoman for a long time, so he even took the time to look at her resume. He remembered that she was unmarried at the time, so how could it be that she suddenly had a husband and that husband... was actually the famous President Fu of Fu Corporation in Bei City?

“President Fu, could I ask if Mrs. Fu is...”

Fu Lingye suddenly hugged Mu Tongrui's shoulder and pulled her into his embrace. He lowered his handsome face and said in a low voice, “Mrs. Fu, you didn't tell them who your husband was? Are you that ashamed of me?”

“...”

A blush gradually crept onto Mu Tongrui's face.

Was it really appropriate for this man to tease her in public like that?

Feng Dehuai was astonished.

A few years ago, he had had the honor of meeting Fu Lingye. He only knew that this man was ruthless in business and was decisive and resolute in making decisions. Whenever he talked or looked at people, he did it with coldness. He had a lot of pride in his bones and was the top dog in the business world. There were very little people he actually valued. However, when he was talking to Mu Tongrui, there was warmth in his eyes and gentleness in his tone. He was like a completely different person.

However, when this man was looking at other people, he still had his cold, arrogant aura. He was almost murderous with his tone. Feng Dehuai immediately laughed and tried to suck up to him. “President Fu, I really didn't know that Miss Mu was your wife. If I knew, I would have never let her work in my puny company, I would have worshipped her like she was my ancestor! When Mrs. Fu joined the company, she wrote unmarried at her marital status on her resume, so how could I have guessed her status... No matter who it was, they wouldn't have guessed that Mrs. Fu would come work at a small company in S City. President Fu, Mrs. Fu, if there's any way my company has offended you, please be kind-hearted and forgive us.”

“Both my wife and I are not petty people, but last night, people under Chairman Feng brought my wife to a work socialization appointment. If I had not gotten there in time, I'm afraid my wife would have been taken by them and used as a way to seal the business deal.”

Feng Dehuai's eyes trembled. His face went white and he immediately berated Li Hao. “Who asked you to do such shameless things! Using female subordinates to close business deals? Who taught you that? Apologize immediately to Mrs. Fu! Apologize immediately!”

Now that they had offended Mrs. Fu, particularly with things of this nature, it basically meant they offended Fu Lingye, so how could Fu Lingye not get mad?

If Fu Lingye got mad, it was likely that his company wouldn't survive.

Once Feng Dehuai thought about this, his heart shivered.
