A Substitute Bride With Multiple Identities
Chapter 229: Pacified

Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Pacified

At that moment, on the third floor of the villa.

Qi Fang, holding a telescope, elbowed Wu Fang who had just arrived at his side, "Hey, hey, do you think Madam will forgive Master Fu this time?"

"Hard to say," Wu Fang said expressionlessly, continuously scattering flower petals from the basket he held: "It’s been half a minute already, and Madam hasn’t taken the flowers from Master Fu’s hand yet; it seems that Master Fu concealing her identity really infuriated her."

Qi Fang made a miserable face: "Then am I done for?"

When he had given Master Fu this advice, he had promised confidently that Madam would definitely calm down and forgive him.

"It’s normal for you to be done for," Wu Fang said expressionlessly as he put down the flower basket: "After all, this outdated and clichéd idea came from you; even in typical overbearing CEO stories, these kinds of reconciliation ideas are long outdated."

Other CEOs are already using artificial meteor showers.

Qi Fang felt even more desperate, praying silently that if Madam didn’t calm down and forgive Master Fu, he hoped that Master Fu would give him a lighter punishment.

At least, not like San Fang, who was sent to mine with Yi Fang.

In front of the villa.

Shen Yanhe slightly lifted her gaze, looking at the man in front of her.

The man stood tall and straight like a handsome tree, his features were strikingly attractive, and the look he gave her was much gentler than usual, not as aggressive or invasive.

It must be said, Fu Yanhe’s face hit all the right spots in her aesthetic preferences.

Just by looking, Shen Yanhe’s anger was almost gone.

But, that didn’t mean she would forgive him so easily.

Fu Yanhe, seeing that Shen Yanhe hadn’t taken the bouquet from his hands for a long time, sighed very lightly.

It seemed she was really furious, even this method was ineffective.

His lashes dropped, and he slowly set the bouquet down, his voice very soft, sounding a bit pitiful: "It was my mistake, Yanyan, it’s okay if you don’t want to forgive me."

Shen Yanhe couldn’t stand seeing him so dejected.

Even though she knew Fu Yanhe was doing it on purpose, she just fell for it.

Shen Yanhe pursed her lips and extended her hand emotionlessly to take the bouquet from his cradle.

Fu Yanhe immediately looked up at her, his eyes very soft.

Shen Yanhe tried to keep her face straight: "Thinking a bouquet of flowers would be enough for my forgiveness, the world doesn’t work so cheaply."

She paused, then continued, "I’m still a bit angry now."

"But considering your sincere remorse, I’m willing to give you a chance to explain," she said.

Fu Yanhe relaxed slightly and took Shen Yanhe’s hand, "Thank you, Yanyan."

"Let’s go inside first; I’ve already prepared dinner. Eat, and I’ll explain everything to you slowly."

This time, Shen Yanhe didn’t shake off his hand, following his lead into the living room.

She handed the bouquet to the aunt to put in a vase, then sat down at the dining table. Fu Yanhe served her soup, his voice clear and a bit magnetic, unhurried as he spoke: "I told you before that I am the second son of the Fu Family, and I didn’t lie to you."

"I and Fu Yanheng are twins, but the older generation of the Fu Family thought twins were not auspicious, so I was abandoned as soon as I was born."

Shen Yanhe was stunned for a moment: "Abandoned?"

"Yes," Fu Yanhe said calmly, placing the freshly served soup in front of Shen Yanhe: "According to the old rules of the Fu Family, they would send the abandoned child to be raised by an ordinary family."

"But Fu Weizhi didn’t want his bloodline to be lost to outsiders, so he found a rather secluded villa, threw me in there, let a nanny raise me, and hired someone to keep a tight watch on me, not allowing me to have any contact with the outside world."

"Until a few years ago, just after Fu Yanheng had taken over the Fu Corporation and had an accident, Fu Weizhi was starting a new project overseas. Eager to expand in the foreign market, he had me brought back to impersonate Fu Yanheng to stabilize the Fu Corporation."

Fu Yanhe sat down, took the blanched shrimp in front of him, and peeled them with his slender fingers. His voice still very calm, as if he were talking about a stranger’s story, not his own.

"On the way back, I happened by a car accident, my face and legs were both destroyed, but it allowed me to better impersonate Fu Yanheng after his accident."

Shen Yanhe’s eyes gradually darkened, and her heart ached as if it had been pricked by a needle.

She had not expected, had not at all expected, that this was the reason Fu Yanhe had impersonated Fu Yanheng.

And thinking back to Jiang Yun who, in order to control Fu Yanhe, had poisoned him...

The car accident that happened on his way back to the Fu Family was nine out of ten times no "coincidence," but rather someone had tampered behind the scenes.

Simply to prevent him from being discovered while impersonating Fu Yanheng.

The Fu Family, aside from Fu Yanhe, truly had evil to the bone.

Shen Yanhe looked at Fu Yanhe, who was peeling shrimp, feeling extremely heartbroken; she slowly reached out and grabbed Fu Yanhe’s wrist, "I didn’t know..."

So, when she married Fu Yanhe, he must have wanted her to leave the Fu Family.

"It’s my fault," Fu Yanhe placed the peeled shrimp into Shen Yanhe’s bowl, took off his disposable gloves, and gently held her hand, his gaze soft as he looked at her, "At first, because I didn’t trust you, I didn’t share the truth with you."

"Later, when I was delighted by you, I feared that you would leave if you knew the truth, so I dared not tell you, but let you find out from the mouths of others... I’m sorry, Yanyan."

Shen Yanhe pursed her lips and clasped his hand back, "There’s nothing to be sorry for, I actually... have many things I’ve kept from you as well."

She looked at Fu Yanhe and asked, "But what is most important now is, the names on the marriage certificate, are they yours and mine, or... mine and Fu Yanheng’s?"

If the names are hers and Fu Yanheng’s, then her being with Fu Yanhe now...

This matter, if it got out, would indeed be quite sensational.

Fu Yanhe gently rubbed Shen Yanhe’s hand, then let go and stood up, went to the drawer in the living room coffee table, and took out the marriage certificate he had prepared beforehand; he opened it and laid it out in front of Shen Yanhe

"It’s you and my name."

From the day he confirmed his feelings for Shen Yanhe.

He had Wu Fang reissue a new marriage certificate.

So, the one who had married her was him, from beginning to end.

Shen Yanhe carefully examined the marriage certificate in front of her, still a bit skeptical and muttered softly, "Is this real? It isn’t fake, right?"

Fu Yanhe chuckled, "Of course it’s real."

How could he possibly fake a marriage certificate?

Fu Yanhe sat back down and waited for Shen Yanhe to finish examining the marriage certificate, then took the two certificates and carefully put them back into his pocket.

Seeing his careful demeanor, Shen Yanhe’s cheeks grew warm, and she lowered her head and continued eating.

The barriers between them disappeared, making the atmosphere a lot more harmonious.

"By the way," Fu Yanhe put fish fillet with no bones into Shen Yanhe’s bowl and spoke in a light voice, "Jiang Yun is holding a press conference tomorrow, and I need to go."

Shen Yanhe paused in her action of picking up food and looked up at him, "Do you need me to come with you?"

Fu Yanhe smiled faintly, "Not for now, the people of Fu Family are too filthy, I don’t want Yanyan to come close."

Shen Yanhe hummed in response, "Alright, just call me if you need anything."

She paused then added, "Once you’re done, I will take you to a place, I also have something to tell you."

Now that Fu Yanhe had come clean, she... also needed to be honest about her reason for entering the Fu Family.

And by the way, she would take him to meet her mother.

"Okay."
