Chapter 176 - Fu Hee Cries Her Heart Out
Since she married into the Fu family and got the mistress position after her mother-in-law died, she has been accorded a lot of respect...
In fact, the competition in the Fang family was greater than that of the Su family (Fu ChunHua's family).
All the daughters in the Fang family all got married into wealthy families. And when Fu Hee was younger, she used to be bullied because her sisters and cousins were better in their studies and career than her.
She was fortunate when she fell in love with Fu Lei and found out about his family background after speaking to him a few times.
When Mr. Fang found about the true connection of Fu Lei to the Fu family, he had to make the marriage work and even met Grandfather Fu at that time.
Since Fu Lei was okay with the marriage, Grandfather Fu accepted it.
And since Fu Hee got married to Fu Lei, she had been the apple of her father's eyes, because of the numerous benefits she has brought to her family. And since then, she has been respected and nobody dares to look down on her.
The best thing that happened to her was when she became the mistress of the Fu family, no one from her family dared to disrespect or ignore her.
When she lost her title as the mistress of the Fu house, she didn't dare to let her family find out about it, otherwise, she would slowly start to lose the respect and reputation she tried so hard to build.
Now, her husband wanted to send her packing, how could she bear the shame and disgrace? She would be seen as a failure and she didn't want that.
Fu Hee continued crying and pleading with him, but Fu Lei was adamant and looked like he had already made a decision. He refused to listen to her please and forcefully pushed her hands away, before leaving the walk-in closet.
Fu Hee got up from the floor and quickly chased after him in tears. When she got to the room, she was in time to see him leaving the room. She called out to him and chased after him.
"Fu Lei, please don't send me away! I don't want to leave!" Fu Hee cried.
Her loud voice caused a commotion in the house.
Fu Lei stopped in steps and turned to say to her, "You'd better stop screaming and shut your mouth! If you want to leave this house with a little dignity!"
"No, Fu Lei, I don't want to leave, I'm sorry!" Fu Hee cried 😭 as she gazed at him with a tear-stained face.
"You're sorry? No, I refuse to believe you! How much is the Bai family paying you for trying to go against the Fu family? You go against Father, you go against me your husband, and you go against your own son! Where did you leave your brain? If the Bai family will pay you a lot, then I have to help you leave the Fu family and give you the freedom that you deserve!" Fu Lei said angrily before striding off.
The servants in the house heard the commotion but they didn't dare to abandon their job to come and watch the show caused by their masters. They were well trained as they understood their job.
It was only Butler Lu who had the right to check on this kind of matter.
Butler Lu came in time to see Fu Lei walking towards the living room with Fu Hee chasing after him.
Fu YingPei who had not yet left for work heard his mother's cries and pleadings and came over.
"General, please may I ask on behalf of Master what is going on?" Butler Lu asked with a bow.
"Go and tell him I'm sending Fu Hee back to the Fang family tomorrow morning." Fu Lei said without an ounce of emotion.
Butler Lu glanced at the red-eyed Fu Hee before going to report to the old man.
When Grandfather Fu heard what the commotion was all about, he sighed. He didn't need to ask who told his son about the incident.
"This boy is learning how to be protective of his wife." Grandfather Fu muttered in a low tone. He was referring to Fu Hua and Butler Lu got the message.
"Sir, what about Master Lei, he seemed very serious." Butler Lu reminded him before the matter escalates.
"Let's go and see him." Grandfather Fu said as he stood up and walked out of his study with Butler Lu walking behind him.
Grandfather Fu came in time to see Fu YingPei pleading with Fu Lei to forgive Fu Hee.
"Dad, please forgive mum, she has already promised not to do it again, please don't send her away." Fu YingPei said to his father.
"You want me to forgive her? Does she deserve it?" Fu Lei asked while pointing at the crying Fu Hee. She sat on the floor and cried her heart out.
"Dad, please..." Fu YingPei pleaded. He was not in support of his mother's actions, but he felt that sending her back to her family was a little too much for a punishment.
"No way!" Fu Lei had just said before Grandfather Fu decided to intervene in the matter.
"Fu Lei, are you planning to bring my house down with your rage?" Grandfather Fu asked calmly as he wakes in with his hands behind him.
His facial expression looked quite serious because of the reading glasses over his eyes.
Fu Lei glanced at his old man and looked away without saying anything.
Grandfather Fu glanced at Fu Hee, who immediately ran to his side and knelt before him. She grabbed his clothes and begged him to forgive her.
"Father, please don't allow Fu Lei to send me back to the Fang family, I promise to listen to everything you say. I promise to be an obedient and respectful daughter-in-law. I promise not to interfere in Hua's marriage." Fu Hee pleaded with him as she continued to cry.
"Will you remember your words or will you choose to swallow them?" Grandfather Fu asked as he gazed into her eyes.
