After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me-Chapter 3: Secret Marriage Wife

The tea was scalding, splashing onto Tang Xi's arm, but she didn't care and walked straight in one direction, just wanting to escape the man's gaze behind her.

Fu Tingzhou watched the woman's back as if she were fleeing.

The man frowned slightly; she felt somewhat familiar to him.

He searched his memory carefully, but he had never met the woman in front of him, and it was also his first time visiting the Su Family, only then did he learn that Su Mengshu had a younger sister.

Yet, she gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

A whiff of light fragrance passed through the air and Fu Tingzhou's pupils contracted slightly.

Su Mengshu wore a sweet smile on her lips, "Tingzhou, don't be angry. My sister is spoiled by our family, that's just her temper."

It seemed like she wanted to contrast her own kindness, gentleness, and manners against Tang Xi's impoliteness in front of Fu Tingzhou.

Xia Minjun clearly understood her daughter's intention, immediately adding, "Yes, I dote on this younger daughter too much, spoiling her, making her disobedient. Unlike Mengshu who is more sensible."

Tang Xi went to the kitchen and listened to the voices outside, closing her eyes and leaning against the wall, feeling a suffocating pressure in her chest.

A myriad of emotions intertwined in her heart, hard to digest all at once.

The conversation continued outside, and Tang Xi secretly peeked through the gap in the door at the man sitting on the sofa, so noble and extraordinary, stunningly handsome.

Her heart, thumping wildly.

This was a face that felt both strange and familiar to her.

Yet, it was the name associated with the only bit of warmth she felt in this world.

Such a cold and arrogant person, his eyes also carried a faint smile, but it was for Su Mengshu.

Her fingers clenched tightly then relaxed again.

Tang Xi had actually seen Fu Tingzhou once, five years ago.

But, the Fu Tingzhou back then was different from now.

Back then, Fu Tingzhou was dressed in a white shirt delivering a speech in the lecture hall of North City University as an outstanding graduate, and he sponsored ten academically excellent students with their tuition fees.

For four consecutive years, she received the scholarship sponsored by the Fu Family.

It was with this money that she was able to graduate smoothly.

Ever since she started university, she had always been working hard to support herself. Xia Minjun didn't even pay for the tuition. In her first year, Tang Xi's mother fell seriously ill, and she worked part-time while secretly saving money for Tang Jingyun's treatment.

There were quotas for aid for impoverished students in the department.

Tang Xi was one of them.

Tang Xi could never forget how this name brought her a brief warmth.

Mrs. Zhang's cooking sounds came, "Miss Two, could you help me wash some fruits to bring outside?"

"I heard that the big sister met this boyfriend in the disaster area of Ningjiang City. It was the big sister who saved him. They say he's the heir to the Fu Family, the foremost wealthy family of North City."

Tang Xi quietly washed the fruits, and her thick eyelashes trembled slightly.

Mrs. Zhang was a very warm person, looking at Tang Xi.

Though Miss Two is not the biological child of the sir and madam, Miss Two has prettier features. Miss Two's personality is also gentler and delicate, and she looks as exquisite as carved jade.

"Miss Two, you should wear makeup sometimes too, don't always go out bare-faced. If you find a good boyfriend, you can leave home, no need to continue being bullied in this house..."

She went out and placed the fruits on the coffee table before turning back to the kitchen.

But Tang Xi felt like someone was watching her from behind.

Did she guess wrong?

She turned around, and caught eyes with Fu Tingzhou's deep, dark pupils, frightening her into a tremble.

During the meal, Su Kangrong and Xia Minjun were still rather reserved, fearing that any lack of hospitality might leave a bad impression on Fu Tingzhou.

Seeing that Fu Tingzhou had a few more bites of the stir-fried bamboo shoots, Su Mengshu immediately said, "I made this dish, if you like it I can often make it for you."

Fu Tingzhou was somewhat surprised, "You made it?"

His mother was from the south, and he had eaten a lot of southern cuisine since he was young, the dish was sweet and refreshing, he didn't expect Su Mengshu's cooking skills to be decent.

Aunt Zhang stood by with a serving platter, sighing to herself, clearly, it was the second young miss who made the dish.

Tang Xi just coldly watched everything in front of her, bowing her head and silently eating the tasteless food in her bowl, struggling to swallow.

After dinner, Fu Tingzhou sat in the living room for a while before leaving around eight o'clock. As soon as Fu Tingzhou left, Xia Minjun hurriedly pulled Su Mengshu aside, "Sweetheart, how are you so impressive? So many ladies have pursued Fu Tingzhou to no avail, and you caught such a prestigious person on your first try, and he's the future heir of the Fu Family."

Su Kangrong was also beaming with joy, "If the Fu Family could take care of our family business, then our Su's Jewelry will flourish."

Su Mengshu was somewhat floating on air, "It must be fate."

Mother Su said, "Look, our own daughter is the best, contributing so much to the family. Unlike that ingrate Tang Xi..."

Xia Minjun's voice was sharp, while Tang Xi, who was in the kitchen helping Grandma Sun clean up the dishes, came out with a slightly pale face. Hearing Xia Minjun's sarcastic remarks about her, she walked upstairs to her attic bedroom.

Sitting in front of the desk, she began intently reading medical materials.

But the man's face and his pair of dark and cold eyes, were deeply imprinted in her mind.

Tang Xi couldn't help but use the key to open the bottom drawer, taking out two red books from the inside iron box, and opening them.

The photos inside were of her and Fu Tingzhou.

The only difference was, the photos were photoshopped.

On the day of the wedding registration, Fu Tingzhou did not come.

An attorney he arranged came instead.

He didn't even care to take the marriage certificate with him and went abroad.

Thus, Fu Tingzhou had never met her. To him, she had always been a stranger.

In the photo, her face had a slight smile, while the man's face was as cold as frost.

Tang Xi's fingers gently stroked the marriage certificate, recalling the scene she saw him today, he seemed like he didn't know her... completely unaware that she was his secret wife.

She felt unsettled and couldn't sleep all night, heading early to the hospital the next day to keep busy.

In the morning, Su Mengshu had the driver take her to the Fu Building, and on the way, at a Chinese restaurant, she ordered two ready-made dishes and put them in her own insulated container.

What good is food made by an orphan compared to that made by a restaurant chef?

In the CEO's office, Su Mengshu timidly said, "Did I disturb you by coming here? I saw you liked the stir-fried bamboo shoots yesterday, and since I was off today, I thought of making it and bringing it over to you."

Fu Tingzhou had a taste, his expression changed, "Did you make these two dishes?"

"Yes... Any problem?" Su Mengshu watched his expression uneasily, wondering if he noticed the food was different. But how could it be... she had tasted it herself, the chef at this restaurant made dishes tastier and more refreshing than those made by Tang Xi.

"If you like them, I can often make them and bring them over."

The man only took one bite and did not continue eating, indifferently refusing, "No need."

He looked at Su Mengshu, and she felt a shiver in her heart, as his gaze was as cold as frost, seemingly able to see through her thoughts in a flash, which frightened Su Mengshu a bit.

She quickly changed the topic with a concerned tone, "Tingzhou, how is your leg injury?"

Fu Tingzhou's eyes carried a rare tenderness, "The doctor said, if it hadn't been for the timely rescue, this leg would have been unsalvageable. Mengshu, thank you."

Su Mengshu leaned on his arm and rested her head on his shoulder, "It's the duty of a doctor, I just did what I should."

Su Mengshu was a psychologist, responsible for psychological guidance in the disaster area. She went to the disaster area to show herself off in pursuit of Cheng Yunlang, but she never expected not to see Cheng Yunlang. Instead, she faced many post-disaster injured patients daily and had never really participated in any rescues.

She didn't know who had saved Fu Tingzhou, but this man mistakenly thought it was her.

With so many injured and medical staff in the post-disaster area, if he found out it wasn't her who saved him...
