Mu Yinyin's eyes were tinged with ferocity.
Everything Fu Siye said and did was provoking her. Truly, people said women were fickle, but in her opinion, men were just as fickle!
"I'm sorry."
Fu Siye also saw Mu Yinyin's rising anger. Recalling how he had been blinded by Nan Shiqing all these years, neglecting his true benefactor, he felt immense self-reproach.
But it was no use no matter how many times he apologized!
Things had happened, and the rift remained. When she remembered the three years that had been thrown to the dogs, she couldn't help but feel furious.
"Get as far away from me as you can!"
Mu Yinyin roared.
Fu Siye didn't want to provoke her further, so he let go. "I'll return to the country first to handle some matters. Once they're settled, I'll come find you."
"No need!" Mu Yinyin stated the three words decisively.
She left Fu Siye behind.
Her resolute back conveyed everything.
Two hours later, Fu Siye boarded a plane back to the country.
He had seen Han Jingyi's remains. Mu Teng had faithfully conveyed Han Jingyi's last words to him, and he had also seen the posts Han Jingyi had scheduled on Weibo.
Especially the divorce certificate between Fu Siye and Mu Yinyin.
One by one, Fu Siye also had to arrange a funeral for Han Jingyi, which Old Master Fu and Liang Min were unwilling to do.
Liang Min was very direct. "Even though you and Yinyin are divorced, Yinyin is your only wife. Han Jingyi was never married to you, so why are you holding a funeral for her?"
Old Master Fu followed suit, his expression unusually grave and ashen. "I also disagree. No matter how Nan Shiqing and Ji Hannian schemed against her, she killed Nan Shiqing and He Xia and deliberately angered the police. If you hold a funeral for her, how will everyone in the city laugh at you, at our Fu family?"
Fu Siye did not listen to them and insisted on holding a funeral for Han Jingyi.
He had the burial mound Han Jingyi had previously established dug up and her body placed inside.
Everything Fu Siye did, as the elders had said, led to him being heavily criticized by netizens.
--XX: "He treated Nan Shiqing as his savior before. After divorcing Mu Yinyin, why didn't he marry Nan Shiqing immediately? He only protected her, giving her nothing. To put it bluntly, it was just empty promises, a typical case of PUA!"
--XX: "Given Han Jingyi's situation, even if she hadn't died, Fu Siye wouldn't have accepted her. Moreover, she even helped you solve a big problem!"
--XX: "He claims to have been secretly married for three years, and after the divorce, he still entangled himself with Mu Yinyin. If their love was truly that deep, they wouldn't have divorced! In the end, he only loves himself, and now he's pretending to be affectionate. Does he really think we're all fools?"
...
Within minutes, Fu Siye was trending on hot searches due to the backlash.
Mu Teng tried to remove the trending topic, but the heat never subsided.
This also alarmed Old Master Fu and Liang Min. They were pacing anxiously. "I warned you, but you didn't listen to me. Now look, you're being slandered like this. If you try to get back with Yinyin again, you'll definitely be criticized even more, with people saying you only remembered her after all the women around you were gone!"
Liang Min's words also reminded Fu Siye of what Mu Yinyin had said. He didn't care what the netizens said, but if Mu Yinyin said it, it represented her stance.
Thinking of her furious demeanor, Fu Siye couldn't help but fall silent. "I know, but my affairs have nothing to do with outsiders. No matter how they discuss me, my life won't change one bit because of them!"
His attitude made Old Master Fu frown and jump in surprise. "So, you plan to get back with Yinyin?"
"Yes." Fu Siye answered without a second thought.
It was good that Fu Siye had come to his senses.
If Yinyin remained firm in her stance, they would naturally intervene.
Mu Yinyin was not unaware of Fu Siye being cyberbullied.
Of course, Wan Yu and Gu Xiaoqi had played a part in this.
When they called Mu Yinyin, they mockingly ridiculed Fu Siye. "This is incredibly satisfying! That scumbag, the netizens really did a great job!"
"He's clearly a scumbag, yet he's still pretending to be affectionate. And some netizens are so witty, saying that even though the person is dead, the body can still be preserved somehow. Now he can hold onto two women, and these two women will never fight over him again. This is truly a blessing!"
While Fu Siye deserved the criticism, she no longer wanted to comment further.
She and Fu Siye had reached this point, and their entanglement had long since ended.
Mu Yinyin took a deep breath, suppressed her emotions, and slowly began to speak. "I know you're doing this for me, but please don't say these things anymore. After all, the person is already dead, and the dead should be laid to rest."
She knew about the entanglement between Han Jingyi and him. From Fu Siye's perspective, he indeed had no choice.
But from her perspective.
The person was dead. She had tried for three years, and she had lost her original memories in that fire. Fu Siye's neglect of her during those three years…
Forget it, what was the point of thinking about these things?
Her seeking revenge? Revenge would only prove that she still cared.
"Then when do you plan to come back?" Wan Yu, hearing Mu Yinyin's words and noticing her low mood, frowned and asked about her return journey.
Gu Xiaoqi chimed in, her words filled with expectant joy. "Yes, Yinyin, we're all waiting for you to come back!"
Her biological parents had not yet woken up, and there were still many matters in the Shu family that had not been handled. She couldn't get away anytime soon!
Just as she was about to say something, her assistant's respectful announcement sounded from outside the door. "Miss, the Old Madam is here!"
Shu Old Madam, her paternal grandmother.
Upon hearing that she had arrived, Mu Yinyin quickly put down her work and got up to greet her. However, before she could even leave her office, Shu Old Madam slowly walked in, leaning on her cane.
Mu Yinyin greeted her with a smile. "Grandma, why aren't you resting at home? Why have you come to the company?"
Shu Old Madam had difficulty with her legs, but more importantly, she suffered from heart disease, cerebral infarction, and other age-related ailments.
She was also eighty years old.
Shu Old Madam's face was full of smiles. She tightly grasped Mu Yinyin's hand. "I'm worried about you, after all, you're just a girl. And they are all so busy with their work. Let alone you, who's been thrown into it. Yinyin, I understand what you mean by what you've posted, but people from the Qi family came today and said these things aren't a problem. I think Qi Mo is a good child. Don't be afraid, Grandma will support you in everything!"
