Chapter 534: I Have Never Cared So Much for a Person Before!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mu Mantong smiled at Lu Qingmei. She had deep dimples on both sides of her fair cheeks, so she looked especially sweet when she smiled, making one feel very comfortable when looking at her.

Mu Mantong wasn’t a fool; she had already sensed that something wasn’t right when she arrived at the Fu manor this morning.

Putting aside the fact that Fu Tianci hadn’t appeared at all, there were also two guards on watch outside his room.

She tried to find out where Fu Tianci was from the servants who brought meals to her. However, the servants merely stuttered and said that he was in the manor and didn’t say anything else!

Mu Mantong and Fu Tianci met previously, and it could be said that they had gotten along quite well. It was just that Fu Tianci had made it clear that he had no intention of getting engaged to Mu Mantong. It wasn’t because Mu Mantong’s legs weren’t well!

Fu Tianci said that… there were no feelings of love between them to begin with, and it wasn’t as if they were in the ancient times where their marriage was to be decided by their parents. How could this be decided after just one meeting?

Fu Tianci was very frank. He was still young and hadn’t met a girl whom his heart would beat for. He didn’t wish to find himself engaged to Mu Mantong when he met someone like that one day.

He knew what Fu Qingquan was planning, and he didn’t wish to sacrifice his lifetime of happiness just so he could get his hands on the Kaide Corporation.

He also said that Mu Mantong was older than him. Even if they were to go ahead with the engagement forcibly, if he were to meet a girl that he liked one day, he would definitely break off the engagement with Mu Mantong. It was because he wouldn’t want the girl he liked to feel the slightest bit aggrieved!

Therefore, after much thought, he felt that it wouldn’t be fair to Mu Mantong if they were to get engaged. This was why he didn’t wish to get engaged.

The frank Fu Tianci made Mu Mantong feel especially comfortable when they were together.

Over the years, Mu Mantong hadn’t had contact with outsiders that much, let alone men. She had always felt inferior because she was in a wheelchair.

Fu Tianci was one of the few men, or rather, boys, that Mu Mantong had met before!

However, Fu Tianci, a boy who seemed as if he had walked out of a comic book, had such a clean disposition. He was so honest and positive that Mu Mantong developed feelings of yearning toward him.

She had no idea if that was her liking him…

But, when she heard from her father that Fu Tianci was willing to get engaged to her, she was elated!

She had always remembered the line that Fu Tianci said, that he wouldn’t let the girl he liked feel the slightest bit aggrieved!

Mu Mantong didn’t know if she could have the chance and the honor… to become the girl that Fu Tianci liked.

No matter what, Mu Mantong wanted to fight for a chance…

This was the first time that she wanted to put in hard work for something over so many years.

Therefore, Mu Mantong agreed to the engagement and came to the Fu manor.

Lu Qingmei was worried about letting Fu Tianci and Mu Mantong chat alone. She was afraid that something might go wrong!

However, they had let Mu Mantong see too many abnormalities today, so Lu Qingmei could only nod and agree.

Before Lu Qingmei left, she turned to instruct Fu Tianci, “Remember to have some snacks and drink some milk!”

She was also secretly warning Fu Tianci to be careful of what he said.

Fu Tianci didn’t say anything and turned away.

The auntie following behind Mu Mantong looked at Lu Qingmei’s back view. She could faintly guess that the mother and son had probably gotten into a disagreement.

She hoped that it wasn’t because Fu Tianci didn’t wish to get engaged to Mu Mantong. She had watched Mu Mantong grow up and treated her like her own daughter. If she were to be a bit presumptuous, she could say that a mother knows her daughter the best. She knew that Mu Mantong liked Fu Tianci.

Lu Qingmei stood at the door and smiled at Mu Mantong as she opened the door further. “Come in!”

Mu Mantong nodded, and Mu Mantong’s auntie pushed her in.

“Auntie Wu, you go out too. I want to talk alone with Tianci…”

Mu Mantong’s words were targeted at the Mu family’s auntie, but they were directed at Lu Qingmei as well.

“Alright! I’ll be waiting at the door, Miss. Call for me when you’re done talking!”

The Mu family’s auntie smiled at Lu Qingmei after saying this, respectfully allowing Lu Qingmei to leave first before she followed behind and closed the door for the two youngsters.

The lights in the room were lit up, and the place was a great mess.

Mu Mantong sat in the wheelchair, and her big, clear, and beautiful eyes swept over the crushed chips on the floor… She looked at Fu Tianci, and the corners of her lips curled up into a great smile. Her two dimples looked especially pretty.

Fu Tianci looked at the smiling Mu Mantong. His countenance wasn’t that good. He grabbed a pillow and hugged it, propping up his face with one hand and then laying on his side. “What do you want to say?”

Unlike the attitude he had shown Mu Mantong previously, this time around, Fu Tianci’s attitude was clearly a lot worse.

Mu Mantong didn’t mind, nor did she attempt to move her wheelchair to get closer to Fu Tianci. She asked, “Are you unwilling to get engaged with me?”

“What are you pretending for? Didn’t I make myself clear the previous time?” Fu Tianci smirked. “Anyway, I’ve already told you this before. If you’re bent on getting engaged to me, then I’ll do it! Anyway, there are two guards at the door, and I can’t run!”

Fu Tianci threw a glance at Mu Mantong’s legs. “If I were to run, my mother would probably bring me back, break my legs, and then force me to get engaged to you!”

They say that when hitting a person, not to hit their face; when ridiculing someone, not to mention their shortcomings. Fu Tianci’s words were too harsh.

Mu Mantong’s countenance turned pale.

Her small, clean, and beautiful hand clenched her dress tightly as she forced a smile. “The fact that I can’t walk… isn’t something within my control. If you aren’t willing to get engaged with me because of this, then I can go and speak to our elders. However, I hope you know that it wasn’t me who was shamelessly pestering to get engaged to you. It was your father and mother who personally gave me a call and said that you agreed to the engagement. That was why I agreed. Only when I came to the Fu manor and saw people watching over you did I know… that you’re actually not agreeable to this!”

This was something that Lu Qingmei was capable of doing!

Fu Tianci felt a little uneasy about having maligned Mu Mantong. However, he didn’t show it on his face and continued looking at Mu Mantong with an air of superiority and arrogance.

“Tianci…” Mu Mantong called Fu Tianci’s name softly. “I don’t know if you mind my legs. If you don’t, I hope…”

Mu Mantong’s heart was beating very quickly, and her palms were sweating. She gripped onto her dress. “I hope to give it a try and see if I can become the girl that you like!”

Fu Tianci was stunned, and he had some difficulty making sense of this.

Fu Tianci didn’t hate Mu Mantong. He even felt some pity for her.

However, when Mu Mantong suddenly confessed to Fu Tianci while blushing, he felt a little at a loss.

It wasn’t as if Fu Tianci hadn’t been confessed to by young girls. However, regardless of who the other party was, he had been able to reject them clearly.

However, Mu Mantong was a girl who couldn’t stand on her feet. Fu Tianci had always been soft-hearted, and he couldn’t say those harsh words to her.

“This is the first time that I have summoned up my courage to say this to someone!” Mu Mantong no longer dared to look into Fu Tianci’s eyes. She lowered her head, and her fingers held onto her dress, “I’ve always felt very inferior and have never cared so much for a person before!”
