Li Beibei sat in the front passenger seat and did not speak.

In any case, it was only five minutes to her house. She would be there soon, so she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

However, the car did not stop after a long time.

Li Beibei opened her eyes and saw that the car had actually driven onto the viaduct again and was circling the viaduct.

Li Beibei frowned. “Second Uncle Fu, are you lost?”

When they first got into the car, Li Beibei told Fu Jingmo to use the GPS, but Fu Jingmo insisted that he knew the way.

He could have reached her house first, but he took a detour and sent Su Qingdai back first. She did not say anything about that, but she did not expect him to take the wrong turn when there was only one intersection left.

Fu Jingmo—who had been silent for a long time—finally said, “Li Beibei, do you know why I’m angry?”

Li Beibei: “…”

Angry… Why wasn’t she aware that he was angry?

“Why are you angry? I don’t think I offended you.”

Fu Jingmo turned his head and looked at Li Beibei. He saw that she was indeed confused. He was speechless.

“After the first day that I taught you how to swim, I never went over again. Haven’t you thought about the reason?”

Li Beibei was still dumbfounded.

How long had that been?

Fu Jingmo gave up and said, “That evening, I heard what you said to your best friend. Li Beibei, you can dislike me, but you have no right to push me to someone else.”

Li Beibei finally understood.

“Are you angry over this small matter? Why are you so petty? It was just a casual remark. If you don’t like my best friend, can anyone force you to like her? Whether she can become Mrs. Fu or not, isn’t up to her.”

Fu Jingmo’s face darkened. “Is the position of Mrs. Fu something that someone like her can hanker after?”

Li Beibei felt that Fu Jingmo was too petty—he did not even give others the right to fantasize.

Li Beibei could not help but laugh. “Just because my best friend fantasized about being your wife, you’re angry. But it’s her business that she likes you. I can’t control her thoughts.”

Fu Jingmo: “…”

Li Beibei comforted him smilingly. “Don’t worry, she won’t succeed. I won’t let her succeed either.”

Fu Jingmo’s mood suddenly lifted. “You won’t let her succeed?”

Li Beibei’s eyes suddenly revealed a trace of ruthlessness as she looked ahead.

In this life, she wanted to exact revenge and make Su Qingdai suffer for the rest of her life. How could she really let her get close to Fu Jingmo and have such a powerful backer?

Fu Jingmo did not know about the vendetta between her and Su Qingdai. Li Beibei felt that there was no need for an outsider to know.

Li Beibei retracted her gaze and suddenly turned around to ask, “Fu Jingmo, you don’t fancy her, do you?”

Fu Jingmo felt that the look in the girl’s eyes was unpredictable, as if she was hiding many things. He could not fathom her for a moment.

She and her best friend seemed to have their own ulterior motives.

Seeing that Fu Jingmo did not answer, Li Beibei became a little uncertain. “Do you really like her?”

Fu Jingmo said solemnly, “That friend of yours is pretentious and conniving. She overestimates herself and is delusional. I don’t care for such people.”

Li Beibei was relieved.

Fu Jingmo was a tool for her to make Su Qingdai suffer.

If he really took a fancy to Su Qingdai, it would be a huge problem for her.

However, she still had to put on a show. After all—in Fu Jingmo’s opinion—Su Qingdai was her best friend.

Li Beibei pretended to say, “Second Uncle Fu, it’s not good to speak ill of others behind their back. After all, she’s my friend.”

Fu Jingmo: “…”
