Sir, How About A Marriage?
Chapter 74 - Conspiracy
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fu Le said reassuringly, “Manman, listen to me. I’m not really going to marry Song Ning. It’s just a ruse…”
Upon hearing this, Song Ning’s footsteps halted. She turned back and stood outside the door of the emergency exit. She wanted to know what ruse Fu Le was talking about.
Feng Man, who obviously did not believe Fu Le, continued to cry.
Upon seeing this, Fu Le grew even more anxious. He raised his hand and swore,
“Manman, the person I love is you. If I’m lying, I’m willing to be struck by lightning or hit by a car when I leave the house.”
Feng Man quickly covered his mouth and said angrily, “What nonsense are you spouting?!”
Fu Le grabbed Feng Man’s hand and said, “Manman, the only one I love is you. I’m not being sincere when I said I wanted to marry Song Ning. My father and my grandmother forced me to do it.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Man began to cry again. “Doesn’t this mean your father and your grandmother like Song Ning and dislike me? It must be because I’m not as highly educated as Song Ning that they dislike me.”
Fu Le hurriedly explained, “No, no, that’s not the case. My father and my grandmother don’t like Song Ning either. In fact, my grandmother hopes that I’d marry someone from a wealthy family or someone from an average family. If I marry someone from a wealthy family, at the very least, we’d be equally matched in status. In her opinion, It’d be best if I marry someone from an ordinary family who would look after her husband and children. However, Song Ning falls into neither category. She’s too independent and focuses too much on her career. You’re different, Manman. When the time comes, you’ll only need to express your wish to have a few children, and my grandmother will definitely like you.”
Feng Man finally stopped crying. She said angrily, “You’re so annoying! Who wants to have a few children with you? Do you treat me as a sow?”
“My grandmother likes children. There aren’t many descendants in our family. Look, my mother only gave birth to me. My grandmother doesn’t like women who focus on their careers. Therefore, you have to promise my grandmother that you’ll have children and stay home to take care of the family.”
Feng Man nodded. “I agree. Instead of spending time on outsiders, isn’t it better to spend time taking care of your family?” After a moment, she asked, “Then, why are your grandmother and your father forcing you to marry Song Ning?”
Fu Le stammered, “I… I-it’s just some business matters. I-I’m not really sure as well…”
Feng Man did not believe him. She said, “Fu Le, you have to be honest with me. I’m willing to trust you, but you have to show your sincerity as well, right? How can you expect me to trust you when you’re still withholding information from me? All the doctors and nurses in the hospital know that you proposed to Song Ning earlier. I’m completely humiliated. Fu Le, I’m not capable and can’t compare to Song Ning at all. There’s nothing I can do even if you’re not sincere toward him. After all, it’s my fault for falling in love with you. However, the least you can do is be honest with me, right?”
Meanwhile, on the other side of the door, Song Ning could not help but sigh inwardly. Feng Man’s words, well-timed tears, and knowledge of when to push and pull were really amazing. Even if she spent all her life studying them, she would not even be able to learn 1% of Feng Man’s skills.
As expected, Fu Le grew distressed upon hearing Feng Man’s words. He felt his heart ache. “Manman, my beloved, why are you spouting such nonsense? Are you trying to make my heart ache? My father and my grandmother want me to marry Song Ning because of our family business. My mother and her mother used to run a business together. Some of the patents belonged to Song Ning. If I marry her, I’d be able to obtain some of those patents. This matter is incredibly important to our family business. Only by obtaining those patents will we be able to cooperate with those big companies. Look, you want to be the Young Madam of the Fu family, right? Surely you must want the Fu family’s business to flourish…”
Feng Man was clearly delighted by these words. “Really?”
On the other hand, Song Ning was dumbstruck as though she had been struck by lightning. She was not naive to the way of the world. She had experienced life, death, wealth, and poverty in her short 26 years of life. She had gone through many ups and downs in her life. However, she really did not expect the Fu family to plot against her to this extent.
Previously, she had seriously reflected on her relationship with Fu Le. Therefore, she did not hate him despite his betrayal. After all, she was lacking in many areas as well in their relationship. She felt that she had also played a part in Fu Le’s betrayal of her. For all these reasons, she did not resent Fu Le, the Fu family, or Feng Man.
When Fu Le had sought her out and tried to reconcile with her, she had assumed Fu Le was just being immature and was behaving willfully like a young master.
Alas, as it turned out, his words of reconciliation were a part of a conspiracy!
