"It's just a joke." Fu Sheng said.

It's not that she is afraid of being labeled as a "third party", but it is difficult for a healthy and normal person to accept someone who has violated her without any scruples.

He changed the subject, "In two days, I will have my lawyer draft an agreement and send it to you for review."

"Okay, thank you."

The box became quiet again, and Xie Mu lowered his head to eat.

The goal had been achieved, and she no longer wanted to sit here face to face with Fu Sheng.

Fu Sheng glanced at his phone, put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I won't see you off. The bill has been paid, so take your time. I'm leaving first."

"Okay, thank you Manager Fu, and take care." Xie Mu raised his head and showed the only sincere smile he had given so far.

"If you have any other requests, please call me."

"Ok."

When he reached the door, Fu Sheng paused, "By the way, you should have only met Xiao Heng once, right? When are you going to see him?"

Xie Mu thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait until the preliminary round is over."

"Okay, contact me then."

"Ah."

Fu Sheng pushed the door open and left.

The footsteps gradually faded away, and Xie Mu was the only one left in the box, peaceful and quiet.

She stretched her arms, breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed her whole body.

Manager Fu was really considerate. He knew she was nervous, so he left early.

Xie Mu tried another piece of dessert and it tasted really good.

Before she knew that Fu Sheng was the man that night, she always thought that Fu Sheng was a nice guy. He was handsome, had a prominent family background, outstanding abilities, and was a decent person. He went to work on time every day and left work late. All his secretaries were men. He had no gossip about him and had none of the bad habits of playboys. After being with Minmin, he never despised her background and even held a wedding and announced it to the public.

Such men are rare. If it had not happened that night, if she had not been pregnant, if she was just an ordinary college student at that time, she might have fallen in love with him after joining the company as an intern.

But there are no ifs in the world. The moment she decided to keep the child, she made up her mind not to get married. No matter how outstanding Fu Sheng was, it had nothing to do with her.

After learning the truth, she would never be with Fu Sheng again.

It was like a tall threshold blocking her way; at least she wasn't brave enough to step over it yet.

Even if Fu Sheng had not chosen the wrong person, her only choice would have been to take the money and leave.

Xie Mu didn’t eat much, and several dishes on the table were left untouched, so she asked the waiter to pack them up.

After returning home, Xie Mu told Boss Xie about the corpse, "...I took a look at its appearance after burial. With these belongings, it should be able to pass for the real thing."

It has come to this. Boss Xie patted his thigh and said, "Okay, we will transport the body back for burial tomorrow. Although the daughter is gone, there is still a grandson. I hope your uncle can be content and stop looking for trouble."

"……Um."

Boss Xie looked at the packed food on the table and said, "Hey, now Minmin is divorced and your internship is over. In the future, you should have less contact with Fu Sheng to avoid gossip."

"......Yeah." Xie Mu kept smiling on his face, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart.

How should she explain Xiaoheng's life experience without angering her father?

Xie Mu contacted Xie Laoer and said that she had just returned from the police station. The police had salvaged Xie Min's body and personal belongings from the river. The body was now in the funeral home and would be transported back tomorrow.

After saying these words, Xie Mu took the opportunity to curse Xie Lao Er.

Upon hearing this, Xie Laoer had to accept the fact that Xie Min had committed suicide by jumping into the river.

A foolish person will not admit his mistakes. Xie Laoer felt sad and blamed himself at first, but as he recalled it over and over again, he unconsciously tried to excuse himself.

He also wanted a better life for his family, so that Chaochao could have a promising future and support Xie Min, right? What was wrong with him as a father? He just said a few words to her, and he didn't really let her go to jail. If she wanted to blame someone, she should blame her for not being able to bear it.

Besides, she just jumped into the river to commit suicide without thinking about what the villagers would say, and she didn't consider the situation of them as parents at all. It was really unfilial. If she died, she died, and he would just treat her as if he had no daughter.

Thinking of this, Xie Laoer walked into the express delivery station and picked up the package.

It was a cardboard box, and it felt quite heavy.

Xie Laoer smiled, fortunately he got these valuable things back.

When he got home, he couldn't wait to open the box and was stunned - it was half filled with stones.

"What is going on?!!!"

Xie Min's mother also looked incredulous. She dug through the stones with her hands to make sure there were no valuables inside. "This...this...could it be that someone at the post station switched the items? I've seen news reports about couriers stealing things..."

She never thought that Xie Min would disobey them.

"I'll go back to them now!"

"I'll go with you, and we'll buy some white cloth and yellow paper and tell all the relatives that Minmin has died, so as not to make a fool of ourselves."

Naturally, the people at the express delivery station would not admit it, so the station owner contacted the stationmaster of the originating station.

The webmaster replied immediately: "I remember it very clearly. She sent stones. I was surprised at the time. Who would send stones? The weight is so high and the courier fee is so expensive. The girl said that these stones are meaningless. We don't know what the meaning of broken stones is... Wait, I will find a packing video for you."

The webmaster sent the packing video over, and the inn owner threw it at Xie Laoer's face. Xie Laoer's face turned red and blue and he was speechless.

Coming out of the post station, he threw the box to the ground in anger!

This damned unfilial daughter dared to play tricks on him! If she wasn't already dead, he would have beaten her to death!

This anger continued until the next day. After seeing the corpse, he just glanced at it and turned his head away, feeling unlucky!

"Uncle, these are Minmin's belongings that were salvaged. Please keep them."

"What's the use of these?" Xie Lao Er took a look and said with disdain.

Boss Xie thoroughly implemented the plan and scolded, "What's the use? What's the use?! Of course it's for a souvenir. Second brother, no matter what, Minmin has made so much money for the family. You forced her to jump into the river, but you don't repent at all? How can you be so cold-blooded?!"

Xie Lao Er looked around in panic, afraid that others would hear him, so he quickly took the small bag from Xie Mu and pulled Xie Lao Da back to the house, "Brother, listen to me..."

As expected, everyone's attention was focused on Xie Min's life.

Not long ago, Xie Min was still so glorious, but who would have thought that in just such a short time, she got divorced, apologized, and jumped into the river, and a life was gone. Who wouldn't sigh when seeing this?

No one discovered that the body was fake.

Xie Min was too young when she "died", so there was no grand funeral.

After the body was buried, Xie Mu returned to Jiangcheng with his father.

Xie Mu finished his vacation and returned to school to prepare for the competition with his classmates and teachers.
