Chapter 767: 0756 What about ?
“Is she… very terrifying?”
For a mont, Su Ran’s slightly settled heart instantly leaped again.
The scene of “bouncing a check” surged into her mind once more.
Fu Qiyuan’s mother wouldn’t really hand her a check for five million, would she?
–
After dinner, Old Master Fu called Fu Qiyuan and Fu Qixiu into the study. Seeing this, Fu Yizhi secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Su Ran couldn’t help but find her reaction a bit funny.
“What’s the matter?”
Fu Yizhi shook her head, affectionately linking arms with Su Ran.
“Sister Su, do you have any plans for tomorrow?”
Su Ran thought for a mont, “Tomorrow? I don’t think I have any plans, why?”
Fu Yizhi rubbed her arm coquettishly, her face pleading:
“Nothing… it’s just so boring at ho, shall we go shopping together tomorrow?”
Seeing the pitiful look in the young girl’s eyes, Su Ran felt her heart soften.
“You’re bored? Don’t you have a lot of friends?”
Fu Yizhi murmured, “But I want to go shopping with Sister Su, pretty please? Will you, will you?”
Su Ran felt sowhat dizzy from her shaking and said helplessly, “Alright.”
Fu Yizhi with an air of disbelieving joy, “Really… really?”
Su Ran raised an eyebrow, “Of course.”
Fu Yizhi let out a howl and gave Su Ran a bear hug.
“Sister Su, you’re really the best, uh, but… that…”
“What?”
“I have a friend, can I invite her to join us tomorrow?”
Su Ran nodded indifferently, “Sure!”
Fu Yizhi smiled sweetly, “Thank you, Sister Su.”
Looking at the pure and cute young girl in front of her, the corners of Su Ran’s lips curved upward ever so slightly.
Monts later, she hesitated before looking at Fu Yizhi and asking softly:
“Yizhi, what kind of person is your aunt?”
The smile on Fu Yizhi’s face stiffened for a mont as she swallowed.
“My aunt… she’s quite nice!”
Su Ran was speechless, your facial expression doesn’t look like she’s ‘quite nice.’
“Then why… do you react like this? Are you very afraid of her?”
Fu Yizhi’s expression beca slightly anxious, “Not really, it’s just… you must know our relationship with my aunt, she… doesn’t smile much and looks sowhat stern. Whenever I see her, I’m always reminded of the head teacher at our school, so…”
Su Ran nodded thoughtfully; the fathers of Fu Yizhi, Fu Qiyuan, and Fu Qixiu were not born of the sa mother.
Being born into a top-tier family like the Fus, even full brothers could not be entirely harmonious.
Let alone half-brothers!
Stern?
So, Fu Qiyuan’s mother is a very stern person?
Fu Yizhi looked at Su Ran with so sympathy, “Sister Su, in the future… well, my aunt is really nice, don’t worry…”
“…” Su Ran’s lips twitched involuntarily.
She wasn’t worried, but now seeing you like this, it’s impossible not to be.
Just how stern was Fu Qiyuan’s mother? So much that even Fu Yizhi’s voice trembled when ntioning her?
“Sister Su, um, I’m going to head back now, okay? I’ll co to find you tomorrow morning; you should rest early too, good night!”
Having said that, she hurriedly left.
Su Ran: “…”
What kind of ferocious beast was Fu Qiyuan’s mother?
Why did it seem that in the Fu family, Fu Qiyuan’s mother was even more dreadful than Old Master Fu?
As the sky gradually darkened, Su Ran leaned on the sofa, her expression sowhat somber as she pondered.
Even when Fu Qiyuan returned, she didn’t notice.
Seeing this, the man sat down beside her sowhat helplessly.
Familiar scents slowly filled her nostrils, and only then did an oblivious Su Ran co back to her senses.
“You’re back?”
Fu Qiyuan looked at her and countered, “What are you thinking about? You look so lost in thought.”
At that, Su Ran slightly lowered her eyes, then looked at the man seriously again.
“Fu Qiyuan, tell honestly, is your mother, like, really scary?”
Fu Qiyuan raised an eyebrow, watching her struggle with this question over and over, and couldn’t help but let out a light sigh.
“Who told you that?”
Su Ran didn’t hesitate, “Yizhi, of course.”
Fu Qiyuan felt a bit amused inside, “Oh? And what exactly did she tell you?”
Su Ran blinked her eyes and repeated the conversation between the two to the man.
After listening, Fu Qiyuan glanced at her annoyedly.
“Getting a child to spill the beans, how accomplished.”
Su Ran touched her nose sheepishly, “Well, it’s your fault for not telling .”
And besides, Yizhi is hardly a child; where do you find kids in their twenties?
She’s clearly a cute little lolita.
Fu Qiyuan helplessly knocked on her head and said:
“You even believe her words, always scaring yourself.”
Su Ran looked up at him, “Is it not true?”
Fu Qiyuan: “Does Yizhi not wear that expression for everyone she ets?”
Su Ran thought about it and felt that he made sense.
“Then tell honestly, what kind of person is your mother? Is she really that strict?”
Fu Qiyuan’s expression was serene as he softly spoke two words —
“Depends.”
Su Ran was confused, “Depends? What does that an?”
Fu Qiyuan: “Just the literal aning.”
Su Ran: “…”
The literal aning, what does that an?
Does it an that her future mother-in-law is indeed very difficult to get along with?
–
The next morning, Su Ran and Fu Qiyuan got up early.
Old Master Fu had an early breakfast and was not in the dining room at the mont.
Su Ran couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief; she was sowhat glad not to share a table with the old master.
The dining table rules, more complicated than those of royalty, were really more than she could bear and seriously affected her appetite.
Just as the two finished breakfast, the old master returned from his morning walk.
Upon returning, he saw Fu Qiyuan holding Su Ran’s hand as they walked out of the dining room.
The couple greeted the old master, only to be t with his haughty cold huff.
Su Ran wasn’t bothered, and Fu Qiyuan cared even less. He tilted his head to look at the girl and said:
“What do you want to do today? Shall I take you out for a stroll?”
Looking into the man’s eyes, Su Ran blinked and said weakly:
“Um… I’ve already made plans with Yizhi to go shopping.”
After speaking, Su Ran waited for the man’s reaction to explode, only to find that he remained silent for a long ti.
On looking up, she indeed found the man with a darkened face.
Su Ran felt a bit short of breath, “Well… I made plans with Yizhi first, and you didn’t say anything.”
Fu Qiyuan looked at her expressionlessly, “What about then?”
Seeing the man’s aggrieved expression as if he’d been abandoned, Su Ran couldn’t help wanting to laugh.
“Work? Earn money?”
Fu Qiyuan pursed his lips and said nothing.
A wistful air perated the entire yard.
Fu Qixiu strolled over with his hands in his pockets, and upon seeing the subtle tension between the two, he couldn’t help but make a cheeky remark.
“What’s up, bro? That wistful look on your face, got abandoned by sister-in-law?”
Su Ran: “…”
