Mo Rao wanted to refuse, but Fu Ying agreed. “Alright, we’re rushing home now.”
“Alright, alright, alright. Drive safe!” Old Madam Fu was overjoyed.
She didn’t get her hopes up about Mo Rao forgiving Fu Ying. She only hoped to see Mo Rao more often in the future.
After all, she was old and didn’t have much time left.
After hanging up, Old Madam Fu quickly sent someone to the kitchen to arrange the cooking. Mo Wan and Fu Lin had just returned when Old Madam Fu called them to the living room.
“Mom, what’s the matter? You look so happy!” Mo Wan asked with a smile.
“There’s good news! Isn’t it Fu Ying’s birthday today? Rao Rao is with him now. The two of them will come back for dinner later!” Old Madam Fu smiled brightly.
Mo Wan and Fu Lin looked at each other in shock.
What did Fu Ying do to make Mo Rao celebrate his birthday with him and even agree to return home for dinner? Could he have threatened her again?
However, this was just their guess. They would know after Mo Rao arrived.
“Alright, I’ll go bake a cake.” Fu Lin remembered that Mo Rao liked the desserts he made and immediately got up to go to the kitchen to get busy.
Mo Wan quickly said, “Then I’ll take a shower and change my clothes.”
Old Madam Fu beamed. “Alright. Go quickly!”
The Fu family immediately got busy. Fu Ying and Mo Rao were already halfway there.
At this moment, Mo Rao’s phone rang. It was a call from Mo Yuan.
“Brother,” Mo Rao called softly.
“Rao Rao, why aren’t you back yet? It’s almost seven o’clock. Are you going to have dinner with him?” Mo Yuan sounded very unhappy. It was obvious how much he hated Fu Ying.
Mo Rao glanced at Fu Ying. “Yes, we’re going to the Fu family’s old residence for dinner. Grandma and the others are waiting for me to go back.”
If she didn’t mention Grandma and the others, Mo Yuan would probably rush over to pick her up.
As expected, Mo Yuan was puzzled. “You’re going to the Fu family’s old residence? Will Old Madam Fu and the others be there?”
“They’ll all be there,” Mo Rao replied.
As long as they were around, he didn’t have to worry about Mo Rao being bullied. Mo Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.
He instructed, “Alright, call me after you’re done eating. I’ll pick you up.”
“No need. I’ll send her.” Fu Ying snatched the phone and said domineeringly.
“Who asked you to send her?! Just you wait!” Mo Yuan became furious when he heard Fu Ying’s voice and hung up the phone. He had to take revenge on Fu Ying.
Mo Rao was a little worried. What was her brother trying to do?
After a while, the car stopped at the entrance of the Fu family’s old residence.
Fu Ying and Mo Rao got out of the car and walked into the old residence.
“Rao Rao!” The moment she saw Mo Rao, Old Madam Fu was overjoyed and went to welcome her.
“Grandma, slow down. Why did you come out personally? You should have just waited for me at home!” Mo Rao quickly ran over and held Old Madam Fu’s hand.
Upon seeing that she was still as filial and sensible as before, Old Madam Fu felt sad yet relieved.
Fu Ying also walked over, but Old Madam Fu only took a look before pulling Mo Rao to the living room to sit down and chat.
Fu Ying smiled helplessly. In the Fu family, Mo Rao was more favored than him, as usual.
Just as he was about to follow her in, his phone rang. It was a call from the Jade Heaven Villa’s bodyguard.
“President Fu, Miss Qu wants to see you and is threatening to jump off a building!” The bodyguard reported.
The next second, Qu Ru snatched the phone away.
She had broken one leg and the other was fine. This was all Fu Ying’s doing and he had even placed her under house arrest in the Jade Heaven Villa. Others thought that it was because he couldn’t forget her and that he did this to keep her by his side. Only Qu Ru knew that Fu Ying was torturing her.
Despite her broken leg, Qu Ru suddenly stood up to snatch the bodyguard’s phone and hurriedly said, “Fu Ying, please let me go. Today is your birthday. I remember. I wish you a happy birthday. Treat it as doing a good deed today. Please don’t torture me anymore…”
“You haven’t fully atoned for your sins yet,” Fu Ying replied coldly.
“I’m already very miserable! What else do you want me to do?” Qu Ru broke down. “I’ll commit suicide, okay? I’ll jump off the building later!”
She wanted to use her life to threaten Fu Ying.
Fu Ying was no longer fooled by this trick. He said calmly, “If you were really that brave, I would admire you. The highest floor in the villa is only five floors. You might not die. You can get the bodyguards to bring you to the cliff. You will definitely die if you jump off from there.”
Qu Ru was stunned, and the fear in her heart magnified. Did Fu Ying want her to die so badly?
But she didn’t dare to!
