Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 75 – The Butler

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Song Ning’s mother and Ms. Yun Yao started the business, they had trademarked and applied for patents. Everything was registered under Song Ning’s name.

Back then, her mother had wanted to register under both Song Ning and Fu Le’s names. However, Ms. Yun Yao had refused. She had said that a good man should not seek help from his parents and should forge his own path. Apart from that, she had also said Fu Le was the heir of the Fu family. Song Ning was different because she was a girl and had to rely on someone. Her mother could not dissuade Ms. Yun Yao so everything was registered under Song Ning’s name in the end.

Song Ning did not expect the Fu family to covet the business Ms. Yun Yao left behind. Moreover, it seemed like they would do anything to get it. It was obvious Grandma Fu did not like her, and yet, Grandma Fu spent so much effort pretending to treat her like her granddaughter. She found the deception rather scary.

When she thought about Mu Chen’s relative and the Ning family, she could not help but feel, at the very least, those hateful people openly opposed them. This was much kinder than the Fu family’s deception.

Meanwhile, Fu Le finally managed to coax Feng Man into smiling.

Feng Man said coquettishly, “Then, you better not have any thoughts about Song Ning. I’ll make sure to keep an eye on you…”

“Alright, alright. Why don’t I go over to your place tonight?” Fu Le said happily.

“You’re annoying!” Feng Man hit Fu Le playfully.

Song Ning no longer wanted to listen to the duo. She left quietly with legs that felt weak and a numb heart.

Her feelings at this moment were indescribable. She could not imagine what would have happened to her and Zhuang Ji if she had married Fu Le that day. It was likely that her mother and Ms. Yun Yao’s hard work would disappear in the Fu family’s hands. She was so lucky to have met Mu Chen and Cheng Che. At this moment, she felt incredibly grateful to have met Mu Chen that day.

As she raised her head to look in the direction of the dazzling setting sun, tears began to fall from her eyes.

It must have been her mother and Ms. Yun Yao protecting her and Zhuang Ji.

At this moment, her phone suddenly rang. It was Mu Chen.

When the call connected, she heard Mu Chen’s warm voice. “I’ll pick you up after work. Let’s go to the supermarket since we’ve invited everyone over for dinner tomorrow.”

“Okay,” Song Ning easily agreed. After a beat, she called out softly, “Mu Chen…”

However, after calling out to him, she remained silent.

“What’s wrong?” Mu Chen asked.

“Mu Chen…” Song Ning said again.

“Hmm,” Mu Chen replied.

“I just want to call your name.” Song Ning reached out and wiped the tears off of her cheeks.

Mu Chen chuckled. “Did you miss me?”

“Yes,” Song Ning replied without any hesitation.

Mu Chen was briefly stunned by Song Ning’s blunt reply before said, “I’m here. Whenever you need me, I’ll always be here. Song Ning, you’re not alone anymore. You have me now. We have a home…”

“Okay, I’ll remember this.” Song Ning laughed as she cried. She had a home now and people who loved her. She had Mu Chen and Grandma. She would protect herself and her mother and Ms. Yun Yao’s legacy.

After work, Song Ning made an appointment with Jiahui to have dinner at Zhuang Ji the next day. Following that, she made her way to the back entrance where she was supposed to meet Mu Chen. However, just as she was about to leave, someone blocked her path.

“Young Miss.”

Song Ning stopped and hurriedly looked around. She sighed in relief when she confirmed that everyone was in a hurry after work so no one had heard the way this person had addressed her.

The person in front of her was Ning Chun, the butler of the Ning family.

When Ning Chun saw Song Ning’s actions, he said respectfully, “Let’s talk in private.”

Song Ning remained silent as she followed Ning Chun to the parking lot.

Ning Chun came to a halt in front of a Bentley before he respectfully said, “Young Miss, Master asked me to invite you back for his 50th birthday next month.”

Song Ning tried to calm her surging emotions before she calmly replied, “I’m sorry, but I don’t have the time. Uncle Chun, please wish him a happy birthday on my behalf.”

Ning Chun looked at her awkwardly before he said, “Young Miss, Master misses you very much. Madam has passed away for so many years now; why don’t you let bygone be bygones? No matter what, you’re his daughter, and he’s your father. Master really missed you all these years… Why don’t you take this opportunity to reunite with the family during his birthday?”

Song Ning trembled involuntarily. She tightened her grip on her back and tried not to look at the person in front of her as she said, “Family? You’re referring to that family that includes outsiders, right? Sorry, I can’t do it. I don’t think I’ll be able to do it for the rest of my life.”

Ning Chun said with a sigh, “Young Miss, I’ve watched you grow up. As an elder, let me give you a piece of advice. You have to learn to see the bigger picture. As long as you return to the Ning family, you’ll always be the Eldest Young Miss of the Ning family. Master will never mistreat you.”

Song Ning could no longer hold back her tears at this moment. She smiled sadly as she said, “What about the mistreatment in the past? What about his mistreatment of my mother? Uncle Chun, there’s no medicine for regrets. Can he turn back time and return my mother to me?”

Song Ning supported herself on the hood of the car and panted heavily. The familiar feeling of drowning washed over her, making it difficult for her to breathe. Her consciousness was beginning to blur when she suddenly heard Mu Chen’s voice.

“Song Ning!”
