Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth-Chapter 361: Rebelling Against Manipulation

"I didn’t mean to do it!" Mu Suyu’s voice broke in panic upon hearing this.

Su Wanxin is not usually a petty or irritable person, but that doesn’t mean she’s without temper.

On the contrary, Mu Suyu was very afraid of her anger.

"That day, I had no idea Fu Shihan was at the bar too. When I accompanied you to the restroom, he just appeared out of nowhere, and I..."

Mu Suyu was stammering, uncertain of how to explain.

"I think he might be different from the other members of his family, and knowing that you like him, I just..."

Everyone close to Su Wanxin knew that she liked that man. No matter how much she tried to hide it, it was a futile attempt at deceiving herself.

"I squatted on the side for a while that day, left after hearing him coax you. Later, he carried you out and asked me to take you home. He even gave me money to deceive you on his behalf. I was afraid you’d get angry if you woke up and learned the truth, and added to the fact that I accepted the money, so..."

In the end, it was still about greed.

Mu Suyu’s face turned red; she didn’t dare meet Su Wanxin’s eyes.

What she said was consistent with what Fu Shihan had said, and Su Wanxin had no reason to doubt it. She had been aware of Mu Suyu’s greed for quite some time.

But still—

"I want to know, besides helping Fu Shihan deceive me, have you helped anyone else deceive me?"

Mu Suyu looked up blankly at these words, not understanding what she meant at first.

"What has Mu Xinghan been up to recently?" Su Wanxin pressed on.

"I don’t know." Mu Suyu shook her head honestly. "His whereabouts are always uncertain, and we rarely contact each other normally."

Over the years, Mu Suyu had been living honestly up in the mountains, coming down only occasionally for business. Mu Xinghan was quite the opposite; the days he spent at home each year could be counted on one hand.

The only exception was during these past few years when he brought Su Wanxin back; he almost always stayed by her side. Until Su Wanxin decided to return to Imperial Capital, Mu Xinghan went abroad and it had been a long time since he made an appearance.

Su Wanxin looked into Mu Suyu’s eyes, ensuring she was telling the truth, before she sighed deeply.

"Wanwan, did Mu Xinghan deceive you?"

Mu Suyu slowly came to her senses, asking cautiously. Su Wanxin shook her head and stood up.

Her intention was "unsure," but what Mu Suyu concluded was "he didn’t."

"It’s getting late. Time to sleep."

After saying this, Su Wanxin went back to her room, took a shower, took her medicine, and went to sleep, arriving on time at the company the next day.

In a blink of an eye, the day she had agreed to meet with Zhong Xian arrived.

Su Wanxin knew that Fu Shihan had people watching her secretly, so she had to call Zhong Xian and ask if they could have "talk therapy" over the phone, which annoyed Zhong Xian so much he simply replied, "Wait for me at the company," and offered an in-person service.

Zhong Xian felt he was developing a rebellious psychology because of Su Wanxin.

Don’t want me to treat you? Well, I’ll treat you!

He had never met such a disobedient patient before. Healing her would bring an unparalleled sense of satisfaction.

For him, Su Wanxin was now like a high-difficulty game dungeon that he had to conquer step by step. Sometimes he got so frustrated he wanted to quit, but in the end, he always returned to the task at hand. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Since Su Building bustled with people going in and out every day, when Zhong Xian entered, Lin Rui and others just took him for a client there for business.

He went straight to Su Wanxin’s office, knocked and entered, met with Su Wanxin’s smiling eyes, and heaved a deep sigh.

Around the corner of the hallway, Chen Lei only managed to catch a glimpse of a man’s figure entering Su Wanxin’s office.
