Lu Qingmei looked at Fu Tianci and asked softly, “Tianci, you met the Mu family’s daughter before. Didn’t you guys get along then? I heard from Secretary Song that… the two of you chatted for a very long time and that there weren’t any awkward silences. In the end, you were even the one to push the Mu family’s daughter back. You didn’t even let the servant who was with the Mu family’s daughter interfere!”
“Didn’t you get along quite well with Old Master Mu as well? I heard that Old Master Mu’s wife pa.s.sed away, and he is a lot younger than my dad. Why don’t you consider him? At the very least, he doesn’t have a wife, and you might be able to become the first wife right away!”
“Fu Tianci!” Lu Qingmei was so enraged that she stood up and glared at Fu Tianci, who was lying against the window. “You’ve gone too far!”
Fu Tianci slapped down hard on the bed and sat up. “I’m only saying it. I haven’t gotten anyone to keep watch over you! I didn’t send you straight to the engagement party between you and Old Master Mu! How have I gone too far! How can I be compared to you!”
The more Fu Tianci spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. He stood up on the bed and looked down at Lu Qingmei, slapping hard on his chest. “You don’t allow me to do what I like and what I want to do! You got people to keep watch over me, keeping me at home, and forbidding me from going anywhere! You even confiscated my phone and cut off my internet access! Why don’t you just get a packet of poison and kill me! Just drag my corpse to get engaged and married to the Mu family’s daughter!”
Lu Qingmei’s entire body was trembling. “Fu Tianci!”
“I’m here! I’m not dead yet!” Fu Tianci shouted back in great fury.
The mother and son looked at each other as if they were enemies. Both of their chests were undulating up and down heavily.
Outside the door, the guards exchanged a glance and then looked back to the front as if they hadn’t heard anything at all.
The room was so quiet that only their heavy breathing sounds could be heard.
Lu Qingmei was someone who was turning 40 soon, and her control over her emotions was clearly a lot better than Fu Tianci. After she calmed down, she extended her hand toward Fu Tianci. “Fu Tianci, come and take a seat first… Mother will slowly explain things to you.”
“There’s no need for you to say anything!” Fu Tianci did an action that stopped Lu Qingmei from speaking. “What you want is for me not to create any trouble today and just get engaged, right? Sure! No problem!”
“Tianci, I just want to have a good talk with you. I’m your birth mother, and I won’t disregard your feelings. Come down… Mother will slowly explain things to you! Trust me! You’ll definitely get the life that you want! We’re just pus.h.i.+ng back the time a little. Do you want to listen to what I have to say?”
Fu Tianci looked at Lu Qingmei suspiciously. She sat down by the bed again and patted the spot next to her. “Sit down…”
Although Fu Tianci was still feeling a little angry, he didn’t intentionally rebut Lu Qingmei or refuse to have a proper talk with her. He didn’t sit next to Lu Qingmei but sat casually in the middle of the bed with his legs crossed. “Go on!”
Lu Qingmei started saying, “Tianci, it’s not as if you don’t know what kind of life we had in the past! You know how much hards.h.i.+p I’ve been through and how much I’ve been bullied when I was trying to bring you up! Everyone wishes to lead a better life. You’re still young and still don’t know what the Kaide Corporation really is. I’m your mother, and I have to plan for your future. The day will come when Mother will grow old, leave the world, and won’t be by your side. I have to ensure that if I leave one day, you’ll be able to live a rich and worry-free life!”
Lu Qingmei had never talked about life and death with Fu Tianci before.
This sudden mention of it sounded a little scary. Fu Tianci’s mouth opened a little and didn’t say anything harsh. After all, they were talking about the topic of life and death.
“If you feel that Fu Huai’an is doing a good job of managing the Kaide Corporation and you really wish to hand over the management to him, then that’s fine! When you really have the Kaide Corporation in your hands, you can still hire Fu Huai’an as the Kaide Corporation’s president. The main thing is that you must have the most shares in the Kaide Corporation. Only with this… will you have the authority to decide who is the president!”
Fu Tianci’s brows furrowed tightly.
“Moreover, with money, you’ll naturally be able to lead the life that you wish to have. This is how practical the world is. If you wish to be a singer, that’s fine… we’ll just spend a large amount of money to package you! The prerequisite is that you have sufficient money! You must be able to support your dream and your life!”
“If you really give the Kaide Corporation to Fu Huai’an, who knows how Fu Huai’an will be in the future? Will he really give you the life that you want, allowing you to become a second-generation rich kid like you mentioned, being able to muddle along in life until you die? Son… nothing is as reliable as having money in your own hands!” Lu Qingmei said seriously.
“And this daughter of the Pengcheng’s Mu family, it’s fine if you don’t like her. You just have to marry her and keep her at home! If you meet a girl you like in the future, it’s fine if you get divorced or keep the girl you like outside! It’s all fine! The Mu family’s daughter grew up in an upper-cla.s.s family and is very forgiving in the area of one’s partner!”
“This is what you want to say to me? Marry one to keep at home… and then keep one or even a few outside?” Fu Tianci looked at Lu Qingmei mockingly. “What are you trying to say? My father likes you, so he keeps you outside? Or that you’re already able to get along amicably with the wife my father has at home?”
Fu Tianci’s gaze turned increasingly cold as he looked at Lu Qingmei. “You’re my mother, and I didn’t want to say any of this. My father keeps you outside… it hurts both his official wife and you! Are you a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t! Or… is the only thing you care about the Kaide Corporation and not whether you can really become Madam Fu!”
Lu Qingmei pursed her lips…
A long silence went on between the mother and son.
Yes, Lu Qingmei didn’t care at all if she could become Mrs Fu. What she cared about was if her son could become the master over the Kaide Corporation!
When she climbed into Fu Qingquan’s bed, she was only seeking a bright future. After, Fu Qingquan chased her out of the Kaide Corporation in order to maintain his relations.h.i.+p with his wife. From then on, Lu Qingmei had hated Fu Qingquan.
At a later time, the tables turned, and Lu Qingmei realized that she was pregnant. To Fu Qingquan, who had lost his daughter and didn’t have a son, and whose wife was no longer able to bear a child, Lu Qingmei knew that this was great news.
Once she shared this piece of news with Fu Qingquan, her future would definitely be very bright!
However, Lu Qingmei didn’t say anything!
It was because she had greater ambitions!
She was in no hurry. She wanted to set up a big scheme… She wanted to swallow the entire Kaide Corporation!
Lu Qingmei looked at Fu Tianci, who had already grown up into an adult. Thankfully, Fu Tianci was a boy. Back then, if Fu Tianci turned out to be a girl…
The one that Lu Qingmei brought to Fu Qingquan would only be a boy.
