Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 543: Tell me, do you like me or not?

If he could do it, he wouldn’t be sitting here in the dead of night, hashing it out with her.

What’s he like with others? With others, he gets tired of looking at them and fed up with talking to them. But what about her? Completely the opposite.

"Why don’t you tell me, if I were good to you, how would that be?" Fu Shihan asked, puzzled.

"...It’s inappropriate."

"Why is it inappropriate?" Fu Shihan was annoyed. "I’ve even put on an engagement ring for you, and you’re telling me it’s inappropriate?"

His aggressive attitude left Su Wanxin at a loss for words, so she had to lower her head and look at her hands.

Fu Shihan couldn’t stand her doing this, and simply reached out to pull her over.

Su Wanxin fell into his arms unguarded, and when she looked up, her reddened eyes entered his line of sight, reminding him of what others had said about her at the banquet—comments on her being strong and the like.

They really haven’t seen how soft she can be in private. If they did, wouldn’t they be tripping over themselves to get close to her like they were hooked on drugs?

"Look, I’ve been pretty good with you already, and you’ve still got red eyes. If I treated you like I do others, wouldn’t you be crying so hard even Aunt Qi wouldn’t recognize you?"

"I wouldn’t cry."

"That’s something I almost believed," Fu Shihan scoffed, as if he had heard a joke. He held her, his intent clear.

"Tell me why you won’t let me be good to you, and we’ll leave it at that. If you don’t, neither of us is going anywhere tonight. We’ll hash it out right here."

If not leaving meant not leaving, she could still sleep in the car just fine.

Su Wanxin shifted her gaze away from his eyes, making Fu Shihan both cry and laugh.

Why does that expression look so much like Fu Yu’an’s? Fu Yu’an has that exact small look when he’s guilty, plus he has to hum to show his dissatisfaction.

No sooner had Fu Shihan thought this than he heard Su Wanxin hum softly. He was slightly stunned and couldn’t help but chuckle, biting her in the corner of her lips.

As if venting how dissatisfied he had been these past few days, he bit her so hard she gasped in pain, her eyes turning even redder.

"Don’t you understand what you mean to me?" Fu Shihan looked at her closely, helplessly. "To praise you, I even told others I’ve lost to you. Think about what we agreed on before, if I won, what reward you’d give me?"

What they had agreed on was that if he won, she’d spend a night at his place. If she won, he’d give her money.

Such an opportunity was absolutely not to be missed for Fu Shihan. But he had missed it, by his own choice.

"If you don’t explain yourself today, I’ll go with you to your company tomorrow and let everyone under you see how you treat me."

Su Wanxin: "..."

"I even need to call your mother to tell her you’re freeloading, taking advantage of me without taking responsibility."

Su Wanxin: "??? When did I ever take advantage of you?"

"If not, how did the child come to be?" Fu Shihan asked slowly. "Surely my son couldn’t just pop out of a stone, and you couldn’t possibly have had a child from just holding hands and pecking on the lips?"

So what exactly had she done with him to have the child?

She should think about it, think about it seriously.

"You tell me, do you like me?" Fu Shihan gripped her wrist tightly, only wanting a definite answer.

He just wanted to know what kind of existence he was in her eyes, what kind of place he occupied.
