Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Chapter 113

Mu Tongrui simply threw the diamond ring on the table and turned around to leave. Fu Lingye grabbed her by the wrist and asked, “Why didn't you tell me that you had a car accident that night?”

Mu Tongrui sneered and looked back at him with reddish eyes. “You are so worried about Han, and cared about Xiang Nanqian so much. Would you care whether I was in a car accident?”

He only thinks that I'm an easy and unreasonable woman!

Frowning deeper, Fu Lingye pulled her into his arms and confined her in his chest. “Where did you get hurt?”

The worry in his eyes made her stunned for a moment, but when she thought about that night at the hospital when he raised his voice at her to defend Xiang Nanqian and humiliated her in front of Qi Yanli, her eyes became redder as she struggled to push him away and bit her lip, saying, “I don't need your concern. Thanks to Qi Yanli who sent me for a checkup, I'm fine!”

Qi Yanli again!

Fu Lingye held his temper to talk to her kindly, but the rage in his heart was stirred up again at this moment, as he said in a cold and angry voice, “Are you leaving the Fu family to go to Qi Yanli? Does Qi Yanli know how many times you have slept with me?!”

With a loud smack, Mu Tongrui slapped him in the face. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes, I just want to be with Qi Yanli! At least Qi Yanli will not be fierce to me, and will not distrust me! Qi Yanli is a hundred times better than you!”

Mu Tongrui glared at his fierce and cold eyes for a full five seconds, before her tears rolled down her cheeks silently. She then violently pushed him away and ran out of the Fu family mansion.

Fu Lingye stood rooted to the spot. After a long while, he sighed heavily, raised his hand, and pressed his temple. When he saw the diamond ring on the coffee table, he raised his long legs, and kicked over the coffee table in agitation!

After Sweetheart heard a loud noise upstairs, she ran out of the room blankly, and lay on the stairs on the second floor, looking at the living room downstairs.

Her father was wearing a long face!

She frowned and glanced around but she didn't see Mu'mu!

Oh no, Mu'mu has run away because of daddy's bad temper!

After Mu Tongrui ran out of the Fu family's villa, she continued to run a long way until she was panting, and then she squatted on the ground and burst into tears.

It was obvious that she had slapped Fu Lingye, but she cried so hard.

All this while, she had been suppressing her emotions. When facing Fu Lingye, she acted as if she was fine. Only she knew how upset she was these days.

Fu Lingye is a bastard!

As Mu Tongrui quarreled with Fu Lingye, she could not go back to the Fu family's villa, so she went directly to the Mu family's villa.

She didn't sleep well all night and went to work with a pale face early the next morning.

As soon as she entered the creative department, she was called into the office by the deputy director.

Pulling a face, the deputy director threw two identical drawings in front of Mu Tongrui. “Explain this! How can your drawing look exactly like Ms. Xiang's?”

Mu Tongrui frowned and examined the two drawings carefully. Even the details of the two drawings were the same. There was no difference between them, except for the names that were signed on them.

Has Xiang Nanqian actually plagiarized my drawing?

“Deputy director, I don't know why Ms. Xiang's drawing is the same as mine, but I have never plagiarized anyone.”

The deputy director pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose and sneered. “Oh? So you mean to say that Ms. Xiang plagiarizes your drawing?”

Mu Tongrui pursed her lips and said nothing.

“Mu Tongrui, let me get this straight. Ms. Xiang has won many major awards, and you are just a newly- joined illustrator in the company. Who do you think will believe that Ms. Xiang has plagiarized your drawing?”

No one would believe it. No one in the Fu Corporation would believe it.

“How else can you explain?”

She took a deep breath, looked down at the two drawings, and said, “Believe it or not, I did not plagiarize the drawing from Ms. Xiang.”

Seeing her being so stubborn, the deputy director mocked, “Mu Tongrui, how dare you be so arrogant while you commit plagiarism? Are you really that unyielding, or are you just shameless?”

“Since you insist that it was me who plagiarized, please tell Ms. Xiang to share where she got her inspiration for this drawing and also the significance of this drawing. If she could say it better than I could, I will surrender.”

“You! Humph, if you can, just tell me, where did you get the inspiration for this drawing?”

Mu Tongrui said in a cold voice, “Deputy Director, I'd like to speak to Ms. Xiang face-to-face.”

Seeing that she was so persistent, the deputy director frowned and said, “You should go out first. I would like to ask the direction from the management regarding this matter. After all, this is our first cooperation with Ya Hua, and the management attaches importance to it.”

After Mu Tongrui went out, the deputy director called the extension of the CEO's office.

After Xu Kun received the call, he reported to Fu Lingye, saying, “Boss, the drawings that Ms. Xiang and Miss Mu submitted to Ya Hua are exactly the same. Do you want to get to the bottom of this?”

Sitting on the black executive chair with a cold face, the man said indifferently, “Directly remove Mu Tongrui's candidacy from this pitching.”

Xu Kun was taken aback. “Well...”

Is the boss still mad at Miss Mu? Directly remove Miss Mu without even investigating it?

This is no different from declaring that Miss Mu had committed plagiarism.

Fu Lingye looked at him with dark, chilling eyes. “Why? Do you have an opinion?”

Xu Kun shut up immediately. He didn't dare to have any opinions, as the authority was in Fu Lingye's hands. “It's just that, I'm afraid it will break Miss Mu's heart if you do so, boss.”

Doesn’t she have a good relationship with Qi Yanli? Isn't she leaving the Fu family? Let's see what she can do.

In the creative department, the deputy director came out of the office ten minutes later, and said to Mu Tongrui in front of everyone, “Mu Tongrui, you have been disqualified from Ya Hua's pitching this time.”

Mu Tongrui knitted her brows. “Why?”

“You plagiarized Ms. Xiang's work, and you still have the audacity to ask why?”

“I didn't!”

The deputy director snorted coldly with her arms folded across her chest, shot her a sideways glance, and said, “I have reported the incident to Mr. Fu. If you are not satisfied with Mr. Fu's order, just go to Mr. Fu.”

Humph, Mr. Fu was the top executive of a multinational group, how could he have time to be bothered about Mu Tongrui? It was obvious which one of them had committed plagiarism. Mr. Fu must be too lazy to deal with that petty things, so he directly removed Mu Tongrui's candidacy.

Mu Tongrui clenched her fists hard and stared at her fiercely.

The deputy director felt a chill being glared at by her. “W-Why are you staring at me? I'm not the one who disqualified you! If you dare, just go and vent your anger on Mr. Fu!”

Mu Tongrui swallowed hard, sat back at her work desk, and directly wrote a letter of resignation.

Three minutes later, Mu Tongrui threw the resignation letter on the desk of the deputy director.

The deputy director looked at the resignation letter. “Mu Tongrui, you want to quit?”

“Yes, I quit!”

Then, Mu Tongrui packed up her things and left the creative department with her head held high under everyone's gaze.

When she walked out of Fu Corporation, she felt the tension in her heart suddenly relaxed a lot.

Perhaps it was the right decision to leave Fu Corporation. She didn't mind where she went to work after this. In short, she never wanted to go to suffer at Fu Corporation again!

After Xu Kun received the call from the creative department, he tremblingly went to the CEO's office to report, “Boss... Miss Mu has resigned.”

The face of the man sitting in the black executive chair darkened suddenly.

Resigned? Is she seeking refuge with Qi Yanli?
