There was no surveillance, nor any eavesdropping, so why the insistence on waiting until Qing Shan Temple to speak? Mu Yinyin couldn't understand, "Grandma, don't keep me in suspense. Do you have something to tell me, or are you facing some kind of problem right now?"
"I haven't been feeling well lately, and I've lost my appetite. Your cooking, however, makes me feel very hungry. Yinyin, I was planning to tell you tomorrow because you mentioned you were busy with work. I'll have someone bring you a computer. Please wait for me a moment."
Seeing that Mu Yinyin had already asked, Liang Min couldn't evade the topic any longer. She could only respond to Mu Yinyin.
After a couple of sentences, she still managed to change the subject.
Mu Yinyin felt that things weren't that simple, but Grandma was determined to keep her here tonight. She decided not to defy her grandmother any further and cause her sadness.
Meanwhile, after Fu Siye left the bedroom, Nan Shiqing called him.
When the call connected, Nan Shiqing spoke cautiously, "Siye, are you busy right now?"
Ever since she and her mother held the press conference, Fu Siye hadn't called to ask her anything. Even the online criticism was still raging.
Not only were they being lambasted from all sides, but some fanatical netizens had even started showing up at their door to confront them.
Nan Shiqing was truly afraid of these netizens and could only call Fu Siye for help.
Hearing her question, Fu Siye responded with two cold words, "No."
Nan Shiqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then took a wronged breath, "Siye, can you help me? With Fanxing releasing that video, not only am I and my mother at a disadvantage, but many netizens are also making personal attacks against us. I'm really afraid they'll do something even more extreme. Can you help me?"
As Nan Shiqing spoke, her voice became increasingly choked with tears.
Fu Siye frowned upon hearing her cry like that, "I can't help with this matter."
"Why, is it because of sister? Siye, I'm not asking you to attack Fanxing. I don't mean that. Some fanatical netizens are directly cornering me at my home. I've already explained, so why are so many netizens still cursing me? Can you help me resolve these issues? Please, I don't want to be hounded to death by those crazy netizens..."
Nan Shiqing hadn't expected Fu Siye to refuse her so decisively. But then again, she had already made this call, and she couldn't let it be for nothing.
As she spoke, she cried, her miserable voice irritating Fu Siye.
He knew about Nan Shiqing and He Xia holding the press conference. Being attacked by netizens was simply the netizens not buying their act.
Helping them would be tantamount to helping her.
His stance on this matter was neutral.
"Resolve the issues that arose because of you yourselves," Fu Siye said coolly, preparing to hang up.
But Nan Shiqing, fearing exactly this, exclaimed in desperation, "No, Siye, don't abandon me. Don't hang up. If you don't help me, I'll truly be driven to death by these netizens. Are you going to stand by and watch me not survive tonight? Or do you not believe I'll be driven to death by them?"
Nan Shiqing's voice was as hoarse as it could be.
Her nose was still very stuffy.
Before Fu Siye could say anything, Nan Shiqing hung up the phone.
Less than two minutes later, Nan Shiqing sent him a picture via WeChat.
Following that, she sent a voice message:
— Nan Shiqing: [Siye, if even you won't help me, who else can I turn to now? I might as well end it all, hehe...] kuAiδugg
Nan Shiqing said in a very weak voice.
Fu Siye frowned and eventually went downstairs.
Meanwhile, Liang Min was as good as her word and was looking for a computer for Mu Yinyin.
Fu Siye's study had a laptop, but it was password-protected.
Unable to find anyone, she called Fu Siye, her voice full of anger, "Didn't I tell you we were going to Qing Shan Temple tomorrow? Where are you? Where have you disappeared to?"
"I'm out handling some matters," Fu Siye replied coolly.
He couldn't exactly say that Nan Shiqing was attempting suicide by taking pills.
Upon hearing Fu Siye's reply, Liang Min became even more furious, "What could possibly be more important than bringing your wife back? Fu Siye, do you know how much of a scoundrel you are?"
She had gone to great lengths to try and get them back together, and this brat…
She was so angry she felt like spitting blood!
"Yes, Grandma. If you have nothing else, I'll hang up now." With that, Fu Siye directly ended the call.
The "beep-beep" of the busy signal infuriated Liang Min.
When she tried calling again, Fu Siye no longer answered.
Liang Min cursed in anger, but Fu Siye wasn't there to hear her. No matter how much she cursed, Fu Siye couldn't hear her!
Finally, she carried the computer to Mu Yinyin and said with a hint of apology, "Yinyin, that scoundrel is nowhere to be found. I saw a computer in the study and brought it to you. If it has a password, you can call him to ask. I'm too old to understand these things."
"Alright." Mu Yinyin was surprised that Grandma had actually found a computer for her to work on.
For a moment, she felt quite embarrassed.
Liang Min sighed, "I really don't want you two to divorce. It's always best to have the original spouse. You're still in contact now. Why don't you get back together? Anyway, no one outside knows about your marriage and divorce. I'll arrange a wedding ceremony later to compensate you properly. Yinyin, what do you think?"
Honestly, she hadn't intended for Mu Yinyin and Fu Siye to divorce in the first place. She had given her heart to him, but after three years, she still couldn't warm him up.
Who would have thought of remarrying after divorcing?
Mu Yinyin smiled gently, having already come to terms with it, "Grandma, if he and I were truly compatible, we wouldn't have ended up divorced. I know you still wish us well, but we really can't make it work anymore. I promise I'll go with you to Qing Shan Temple to burn incense tomorrow. If you want to eat my cooking, I'll make time to come over, or you can visit me sometimes. But I need to tell you in advance that I'll be very busy from now on."
Liang Min could clearly understand the refusal in Mu Yinyin's words.
She was a woman and understood women very well. The biggest problem now lay with Fu Siye. As long as Fu Siye was willing, with a few more efforts, how could he not win Yinyin back?
Liang Min nodded, with a sigh and a wry smile, "Alright, whoever has time will come. If you can't be my granddaughter-in-law, then be my granddaughter. Just don't forget Grandma."
After all, there was no blood relation, and things could still work out in the end!
Mu Yinyin nodded, "Okay."
"Then get some rest. We need to leave at 5 AM tomorrow morning," Liang Min reminded her. Seeing Mu Yinyin nod, she turned and walked out.
