Chapter 751: No need for
Su Ran blinked and suggested kindly.
“Why don’t you just run away first?”
Fu Qixiu was utterly confused, “Run? Why should I run? I haven’t courted death today.”
The corners of Su Ran’s lips twitched before she said:
“That… the gig is up!”
“Oh, the gig… what?!! The gig is up?!”
Fu Qixiu yelled out in a burst of excitent.
Su Ran was so startled that she jolted and hid in Fu Qiyuan’s embrace.
“Fu Qixiu!”
A deep voice suddenly resounded, instantly freezing Fu Qixiu into an ice sculpture!
He looked up to see his own brother with a face as cold as ice, watching him with a warning look.
He instantly shrank his neck and moved his steps to the side.
“Hahaha… Brother, I was telling a joke to my sister-in-law, a joke!!”
Fu Qiyuan rubbed his temple helplessly, sighing inwardly.
One after another, none of them gave him peace of mind!
On the way back, the car was silent.
Su Ran noticed they weren’t heading back to Platinum Lanting and turned to look at the man beside her.
“Ah Yuan, where are we going?”
“Back to the old house.”
Su Ran looked puzzled, “Aren’t we going back?”
Hearing this, Fu Qiyuan lowered his eyes to glance at her, “Did a good deed and don’t want to leave your na?”
“Huh?”
Su Ran didn’t understand.
When they arrived at the old house, it was already noon, just in ti for lunch.
Seeing the three of them appear, Old Master Fu was also sowhat surprised, but he still had the servants prepare bowls and chopsticks!
During the al, no one spoke until finally, Old Master Fu glanced at Fu Qiyuan and spoke:
“We have confird the news, the Yan family has already given that plot of land to the Chu family.”
Fu Qiyuan kept silent and continued to eat.
“Although the Chu family has been a longstanding friend of the Fu family, competition in the business arena is inevitable. It wouldn’t have mattered which family got that plot of land originally, but now… Xiyao is interested in partnering with the Fu family, what do you think?”
Fu Qiyuan looked at Old Master Fu and said indifferently:
“There’s no need.”
Old Master Fu’s expression imdiately turned grim upon hearing this.
“What do you an ‘no need’? I don’t believe you can’t see the advantages and disadvantages here. If you hadn’t acted on your own to cut off the Chu family’s opportunity to join Global, why would the Chu family even consider building their own mall?
Once their mall is established, it will definitely affect Global. Now the Chu family is extending an olive branch, which is a good opportunity for the Fu family, and you’re still refusing!!”
Su Ran’s delicate eyebrows slightly raised, and only then did she belatedly realize the aning behind Fu Qiyuan’s words.
Doing good without leaving a na…
Indeed too naive!
“Hold on! Wait a minute! Grandfather, my brother is right, the Fu family indeed doesn’t need to collaborate with the Chu family right now. Instead of thinking about collaborating with the Chu family, it would be better to work directly with my sister-in-law!”
“Are you being foolish just because your brother is? What does this have to do with her?”
Old Master Fu glared at Fu Qixiu, still looking sternly at Su Ran.
Fu Qixiu leaned back in his chair behind him, his deanor nonchalant:
“How can it be unrelated? That plot of land now belongs to my sister-in-law!”
Old Master Fu glanced at him, obviously disbelieving.
“Hers? Fallen from the sky? Don’t joke around here, get lost!”
Fu Qixiu touched his nose, “It’s actually true, grandfather, why don’t you believe ? Am I not your own grandson anymore?”
“You’re not!”
Fu Qixiu: “…”
At that mont, Housekeeper Cao walked in with a docunt envelope.
He glanced at Old Master Fu and then approached Su Ran.
“Eldest Young Madam, this was sent over by the Yan family.”
Su Ran raised an eyebrow. That fast?
It seed today’s events had given Yan Shuming quite a shock.
Fu Qixiu took the item from Housekeeper Cao’s hand first.
“What’s this… Huh? A land transfer deed? Yan Shuming sent over the items so quickly?”
Su Ran remained silent.
Upon hearing Fu Qixiu’s words, Old Master Fu’s eyes hardened, and he snatched the item out of his hands.
When he saw the content of the docunt, he was frozen on the spot.
It took a while before he lifted his head from the papers, glanced at Su Ran, then at Fu Qiyuan, and finally, his stern eyes landed on Fu Qixiu.
“Where did this co from?”
Fu Qixiu pointed upward, “It fell from the sky.”
Su Ran: “…”
Fu Qiyuan: “…”
Old Master Fu’s facial muscles visibly twitched, and he kicked out directly.
“Fell from the sky? I’ll make you fall! Make you fall! Will you tell the truth or not, will you?!”
“I’ll tell, I’ll tell, I’m telling!”
Fu Qixiu, holding his calf that Old Master Fu had kicked sore, had a wretched look on his face.
Although Su Ran felt so sympathy for him, she always thought he had brought it on himself.
“Speak, where did it co from?”
Fu Qixiu had a mournful expression, “Won it.”
“…”
“…”
Old Master Fu took a deep breath, his breaths sowhat heavy.
Just as he was about to give another kick, Fu Qixiu, sensing danger, jumped up from the stool.
“Dear Grandfather, I’m telling the truth, it was indeed Sister-in-law who won it from Yan Shuming!”
Seeing Fu Qixiu’s expression didn’t seem like a lie, Old Master Fu hesitated.
He looked up at Su Ran, but she was intently eating, not even throwing a glance in this direction.
The old master was imdiately choked, his eyeballs almost popping out.
In the end, he signaled to Fu Qixiu with a wave of his hand, then waved again.
Fu Qixiu, certain that the old master wouldn’t kick him, dragged his heels reluctantly over.
“What is it, Grandfather?”
Old Master Fu glanced at Su Ran, coughed lightly, and then turned his head slightly to ask softly:
“How did you win it?”
Fu Qixiu: “…”
The old master also felt his face couldn’t hold the charade and scolded angrily:
“Speak quickly.”
“Well… Yan Shuming challenged Sister-in-law to an archery contest, using this piece of land as the wager. Then he lost, and Sister-in-law won!”
Old Master Fu: “…”
This situation, why did it feel strangely familiar?
No sooner had the thought erged than the next second.
“Grandfather, do you feel a sense of déjà vu? That’s right, after all, you just went through it yesterday!”
Old Master Fu: “…”
Su Ran couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her lips. There was a reason Fu Qixiu had beco the bottom of Fu family’s food chain.
“Humph, it was just a fluke, what’s there to be proud of?”
Old Master Fu snorted heavily, threw the docunt envelope on the table, and wore a look of pride.
“A fluke? Grandpa, can you achieve three arrows directly hitting the bullseye, while also knocking down soone else’s arrows? You must have heard about how skilled Yan Shuming is at archery, right? Does this still count as a fluke??”
Upon hearing this, Old Master Fu’s eyes lit up.
“That impressive?”
Fu Qixiu nodded emphatically. “Besides my brother, I haven’t seen anyone more aweso than my sister-in-law! Truly a match made in heaven! Brother has excellent taste!”
Fu Qixiu spared no effort in buttering up, and while saying this, he sneakily glanced at his elder brother.
Sure enough, his brother’s previously cold eyes suddenly beca much warr.
