Chapter 8: Despite Her Young Age, She Tried to Use Him as a Cat’s Paw

Fu Jingmo—who had always been dispassionate—could not help but twitch his lips when he heard the words “generation gap”.

But very quickly, he regained his usual faint smile.

It was obvious what this girl was thinking—despite her young age, she tried to use him as a cat’s paw .

Fu Jingmo took a sip of champagne and said indifferently, “I don’t care about vanity titles like seniority. As for the “nothing in common” that you speak of, it doesn’t matter either—I can accommodate you when the time comes. You can talk about whatever you want. As for the age difference you mentioned…”

Fu Jingmo frowned slightly, looking a little troubled.

Li Beibei was excited—it seemed that there was some hope. Fu Jingmo probably minded the age difference between them. At the thought that he was already in primary school when she was still an embryo… wasn’t it gross?

Fu Jingmo bent down and deliberately leaned close to Li Beibei’s ear. “Didn’t anyone tell you that my greatest hobby is robbing the cradle?”

F*ck!

Fu Jingmo, this old cow… No, this old fox was teasing her!

Li Beibei pushed Fu Jingmo hard, but realized that the man did not move at all. She had no choice but to take a step back. Her ears were still tingling from his breath.

It was rare for her to be so close to a man. Even her nostrils were filled with his refreshing scent.

Although she had married Chu Xiubai in her previous life, they had never had any intimate contact. When they were dating, she was still young and did not know much about love. She was just happy. Not long after her parents passed away, she was sweet-talked by Chu Xiubai to get married. During that period, Li Beibei was still consumed by the grief of losing her parents, so she did not have any thoughts or mood for married life.

Back then, she was especially grateful to Chu Xiubai for being so understanding towards her. But, she did not expect that he was already having an illicit affair and sleeping with Su Qingdai on the sly.

At the thought of Chu Xiubai and Su Qingdai, Li Beibei felt a surge of anger in her heart. She was surprised to find that Fu Jingmo looked somewhat alike to Chu Xiubai, and she found him even more annoying.

“Fu Jingmo, stop dreaming. I will never marry a graybeard like you.”

Without waiting for him to retort, Li Beibei turned and ran away.

This couple had been very eye-catching. Although people around them did not dare to approach, their focus was all on them.

Li Beibei had spewed those words in a bellow that could be heard from miles away.

A young man in a white suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked over. He clinked the wine glass in his hand gently with Fu Jingmo, and his languid tone carried a hint of teasing. “Great. Tomorrow, the entire city will know that Second Master Fu is a graybeard.”

The man was the eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Qichen. He was also one of Fu Jingmo’s few close friends.

Fu Jingmo gave a look of helplessness. “Et tu, Brute?”

Gu Qichen turned to look at Li Beibei’s departing figure and sighed. “It’s been 13 years. You’ve been waiting for her to grow up, but aren’t you afraid that all your efforts will be in vain?”

Fu Jingmo smiled faintly. “She’s going nowhere.”

Li Beibei walked out of the banquet hall gloomily, hoping to get some fresh air in the courtyard.

As soon as she reached the garden, she saw Su Qingdai and Su Qulian not far away.

Su Qulian was Su Qingdai’s half-sister.

Su Qingdai was actually the illegitimate daughter of the Su family. Su Qingdai’s father—He Qingquan—had married into the Su family. However, before he married into the Su family, he had already given birth to Su Qingdai with his wife in the countryside. When Su Qingdai was young, her father had brought her to the Su family to be a maid under the guise of his niece. A few years later, He Qingquan’s wife—Su Xiangru—discovered the truth. But, Su Xiangru did not chase Su Qingdai away. Instead, she changed her surname and raised her in the Su family. Although she was the adopted daughter of the Su family in name, she was actually a maid of the Su family. Su Xiangru and Su Qulian did not treat her well, and often beat and scolded her to vent their anger. However, He Qingquan had no status in the Su family and could not protect Su Qingdai. He could only turn a blind eye.
