72: Chapter 71: Apology 72: Chapter 71: Apology Even though it was June, her hands were as cold as ice.

He frowned.

But subconsciously he gripped them tightly.

“Let take it off for you, my mother was so happy…

to see you…

it’s all over now….

The scarf should be returned to .”

Listening to her polite words, Fu Tingzhou was sowhat displeased.

Use and then kick to the curb?

The man’s dark eyes stared at her face, “This was a gift from her to , you have no right to question it.”

Tang Xi bit her teeth, her voice crisp and filled with indomitable stubbornness, “I don’t want the scarf that my mother spent three days knitting to end up being thrown in a trash can!”

“What makes you think I would throw this scarf into the trash can!”

“That suit of yours is worth hundreds of thousands, isn’t it?

The cheapest tie in your wardrobe must be seven or eight thousand.

Fu Tingzhou, you have a mother, and so do I, you wish your mother good health, and so do I!

I don’t want her painstaking work to be mistreated, such cheap things are not worthy of your noble status, in the end, it’s just going to be forgotten and discarded.

You can call vain, selfish, and fake, but I don’t want you to waste what my mother made with care!”

As she spoke, the woman defiantly t his eyes.

This scarf, much like herself, represented her world.

Not sothing to be worn in the world of this man.

Fu Tingzhou’s voice was hoarse and carried a certain resolute crispness, “What if I said I won’t throw it away?”

He looked at her, she seed like a little beast at this mont, her fur bristling, guarding her possessions.

This was completely opposite to her usual calm and gentle deanor.

As the elevator doors opened, he pulled her hand, leading her into the elevator.

When the elevator doors closed, the man reiterated in a deep voice, “I won’t throw it away.”

“Thank you, I will also take good care of Aunt Qin, making sure she doesn’t notice…

anything unusual.

Rest assured, after her surgery, I will leave North City imdiately, so you don’t have to worry that she will be affected by not seeing after waking up, potentially affecting her recovery.

I will explain clearly to her in a letter that it’s my fault, that I was the one who initiated the divorce, it won’t affect you and Su ngshu.”

The boundaries she set were crystal clear, yet Fu Tingzhou’s grip on her wrist gradually tightened, he stared at her face grinding his teeth, “If that’s the case, all the better!”

Tang Xi hung her head low.

She knew he couldn’t wait to divorce her the next day, so that he could make room for Su ngshu as Mrs.

Fu.

He really liked her that much, and…

disliked her so deeply.

The two of them stopped talking, the air was filled with a stagnant silence.

The elevator descended slowly, and it made a strange noise when reaching the fourth floor.

Tang Xi panicked as she watched the elevator stop at the number, but the doors didn’t open.

She reached out to knock on the door, feeling sowhat frantic.

It slowly dawned on her that the elevator was broken and they were trapped inside.

This was the first ti Tang Xi had encountered such a situation, she glanced at Fu Tingzhou, the man’s expression was calm, showing no sign of panic, he pressed the ergency button inside.

Soon, a voice ca through from the other end.

“We have received your signal, and a technician will be there to check on the situation imdiately.

Don’t panic while stuck in the elevator.”

Tang Xi also let out a sigh of relief.

In the small space, it was just the two of them.

The waiting seed especially prolonged.

In such a confined space, the air was sowhat stuffy, filled with the scent of ebony.

Tang Xi felt a tickle in her nose, raised her hand to rub it, her voice soft and nasal, “Today, thank you so much, my mother’s recovery has been very good after the surgery, she was old friends with Aunt Qin…

In the future, I won’t bother you with such matters again.”

Fu Tingzhou, “You’ve known my mother since you were little?”

“Mm….” Tang Xi thought for a mont, “Ever since I can rember, Aunt Qin would often co to the orphanage to bring us gifts.

She is a very kind person who has done a lot of charity work.”

Fu Tingzhou could understand why Qin Jianlan had always wanted him to marry Tang Xi – a person well-known from childhood who grew up under watchful eyes, plus his mother was tired of the struggles among the rich and did not like arranged marriages for benefit within the clan.

Three years ago, he only knew that his secret wife was an orphan, unaware that she was later adopted.

“You were adopted by the Su Family, and when I asked you about it before, you did not ntion it.”

Upon hearing this, Tang Xi looked up at him.

Her eyes were burning like water, clear yet intense, “I told you, I had a very important relative who was sick and needed money.

I hoped Mr.

Fu would lend five hundred thousand; I would be imnsely grateful.”

Fu Tingzhou stared at the woman, stunned for a mont.

Indeed…

he thought it was just an excuse for her greed to borrow money…

The word “sorry” tumbled in his throat, his mouth opened but before he could speak, he heard Tang Xi’s low and hoarse voice.

“Because the only person in your eyes is Su ngshu, so everything I do is wrong!

If I wear simple clothes, it’s because I’m feigning weakness and disguising myself.

If I move out from the Su Family, it’s because I’m too rebellious, not obeying my family and hurting my parents.

If I want to borrow money for the headmistress’s treatnt, it’s because I’m greedily asking for too much…

My na is not Su Xi, it’s Tang Xi.

Fu Tingzhou, you’ve said that in the world of the weak, there is no fairness, and I don’t need pity or sympathy either.”

For the first ti, she spoke to him in such a calm manner.

For the first ti, the two of them could have such a peaceful conversation.

The man trembled all over.

He looked at her, his gaze lingering for a long ti.

Tang Xi kept her brows slightly furrowed, her head lowered, not looking up at him.

She didn’t want to see his expression, she just wanted to get what she had to say off her chest.

These words had been weighing on her heart for far too long.

Speaking them out loud, she felt a sort of joy.

“Today, I really want to thank you, thank you for playing the role of my ‘boyfriend’ in front of my mother.

My salary isn’t high, I’ve only graduated recently with no professional titles, and couldn’t raise enough money for her surgery.

Several tis, because of the surgery and hospitalization costs, my mother wanted to give up.

I worked several jobs, and only slept a few hours at night…

When she was in the ICU, I was so afraid she would never wake up, and I didn’t know how to raise the money for her surgery.

I am very grateful that you agreed to lend the 500,000, without you, I don’t know what I would’ve done…”

Her voice was heavy with trembling, but a smile hung on her lips, “I told her that I had a very capable boyfriend who treated well and even gave money for her treatnt.

She was very happy.

It was the first ti I saw such happiness on my mother’s face.

The surgery was a great success, and it seed like the future was full of hope…

She always wanted to et my boyfriend, and I didn’t know how to keep it from her without making her anxious.

So, I asked my colleague Zhao Tianqi to help out by pretending for a bit.

I didn’t expect you to be there…

Thank you for helping keep up the charade and making her happy.”

Fu Tingzhou fell into a long silence, his fists clenched tightly.

Suddenly, the elevator jolted sharply.

Tang Xi stumbled, and the man’s arms encircled her waist.

Her face crashed into a firm chest, but it was a safety that she greedily craved.

The next second.

The husky whisper pressed close to her ears, “I’m sorry.”
