The Pear Garden…

The Jing family members conveyed Jing Hanchuan’s words word for word. The woman who had already gotten out of her car was dressed elegantly and fittingly. When she heard this, she didn’t get angry and maintained her smile.

“We can’t book the entire venue? I heard that Old Master Fu’s birthday is coming up in a few days, so Old Madam Fu plans to book it,” a man following her suddenly said.

The Jing family members glanced at him. What kind of friendship does the Fu family have with our family? Is your family worthy of being compared to them?

“Old Madam Fu is Madam’s close friend. Madam said that the Fu family could book the entire venue for free.” The Jing family members still didn’t give them any face.

It meant that if you have any objections, go find our madam.

Jing Hanchuan’s father was famous for ‘doting on his wife and tormenting his son’. The two of them were always inseparable, and he was also ‘someone who scared ghosts’. Even if Mrs. Jing was in the capital now, no one would dare to disturb her.

“I’m sorry to disturb you.” The woman held her exquisite and small handbag and remained calm and poised the whole time.

“Eldest Miss?”

“Get in the car.” The woman raised her voice slightly in warning.

After the two of them got into the car, the Jing family members watched the car leave before turning around and entering the Pear Garden.

This eldest daughter of the He family was a famous socialite in the capital. She was elegant, calm, and extremely beautiful. Unfortunately, Sixth Master had already interacted with the He family a long time ago. There were only five words to describe her:

Sophisticated, hypocritical, and overly slick.

It was too tiring to interact with such people. They would always wear a mask and not show their true feelings to others.

The two families had never interacted much, and the He family didn’t have any fans of Beijing opera either. Since she had come at this time, she must be targeting Sixth Master.

Unfortunately, she didn’t catch his eye.

“She actually has ideas about Sixth Master. She’s really courageous enough.”

“Actually, Eldest Miss He is also one of the top beauties in the capital. When she was in her teens, she was already famous in the capital, and she’s proficient in all kinds of things.

“Unfortunately, in the eyes of Sixth Master, she might not even be as attractive as a fish.”

Everyone was speechless. What he says makes a lot of sense.

The few of them went back to report the situation to Jing Hanchuan. “… She left, and she didn’t leave any words behind.”

Fu Chen held his bracelet between his fingers and looked at the actors rehearsing on the stage not far away. “She might really have her sights on you. Aren’t you afraid that she’ll look for you again after you chased her away this time?”

He turned his head to look at the person beside him.

Jing Hanchuan was looking at the stage seriously, and his fingers were tapping lightly on his knee. He heard him. “I won’t leave the house. Unless she dares to go to our house…”

Rumor had it that the Jing residence was built on top of a mass grave. It was once the most famous mass grave in the capital. Ghosts crying and wailing could be heard at night, so there were rumors that the Jing residence was haunted.

Fu Chen lowered his head and laughed silently.

During the war and turmoil in the past, people had been plunged into misery and suffering. No one could guarantee that no one had died in any place. The Jing family’s place was not considered clean, but it was not as exaggerated as it sounded.

What ghost crying in the middle of the night? It was most likely because his father was learning how to sing opera in order to please his wife at the time. How could it not be scary when a loud, hoarse voice was screaming at the top of his lungs in the middle of the night? It spread around, and rumors eventually appeared about the Jing residence being haunted.

When his mother was pregnant, there were even rumors that there was something wrong with the child.

There were many terrifying rumors about his family. And most importantly, none of them were good.

Even if that woman came to the Jing residence, she probably wouldn’t even be able to enter the door.

…

On the other side, after this woman got into her car, she turned her head to look out the window. Her expression was relaxed, and there was no visible change in her expression.

It seemed she didn’t take Jing Hanchuan’s decisive rejection to heart.

“Eldest Miss, Sixth Master Jing really doesn’t give you any face. He didn’t even let us in? That’s a little too much.”

She smiled faintly. “Everyone says that Sixth Master Jing is frivolous and arrogant. If we could get close to him so easily, it wouldn’t be him anymore. I asked you to check where he likes to go. Have you found out?”

“This…”

It was too difficult to investigate the Jing family without them noticing.

The Jing family had made a lot of enemies during the Warlord Era, and there were too many people who wanted to take their lives. The Jing family had been passed down for a few generations, and their family line couldn’t be broken.

At that time, they had established a large intelligence network, and it had continued to this day.

After the founding of the country, the Jing family mainly used the intelligence network for business and investments. Therefore, they could make any major investments one step ahead of others, and they made a lot of money this way. Money came quickly, so the Jing family didn’t lack money.

“Nothing?”

“He just likes fishing and watching opera.” The man hesitated. “I heard he can even cook. His life is very exquisite.”

“Where does he fish?” The woman supported herself with one hand and looked out of the window.

“At…”

“What’s with your hesitation? Which fishing club?” Only by knowing yourself and your enemy could you treat the problem.

The man coughed twice. “In the backyard of his house, there are hundreds of acres of fish ponds. He changes fish ponds every day, and he never uses the same one in a month.”

The woman’s lips twitched. “You want me to go to the Jing residence to look for him? Up until now, there’s actually no useful information. Do I have to go to his house to look for him?”

The man continued driving and didn’t speak anymore. Getting him to investigate Jing Hanchuan was making things difficult for him. He didn’t have this kind of ability.

If the Jing family found out, they would definitely kill him.

***

Fu Chen accompanied Jing Hanchuan in the Pear Garden until 10 a.m. when he received a call from his mother. She said that Yu Manxi was coming to visit today and wanted him to go back for a meal.

When Fu Chen arrived at the old residence, Yu Manxi and Fu Sinian were already here.

“Third Master.” Yu Manxi was dressed very formally today. She was helping out in the kitchen. When she heard the commotion, she came out to greet him.

“Little Yu, you don’t need to help out so much.” When Yu Manxi came over, Old Madam Fu had held her hand and talked for a long time. Perhaps because she knew about her background, she always doted on her a little more.

“It’s fine.” Yu Manxi had just entered the Fu family, so how could she let Dai Yunqing work alone?

Yu Manxi was good at cooking, so the Fu family was increasingly satisfied with her.

“Sinian, how did you manage to woo her?” Old Madam Fu was very interested in the history of their relationship.

“Woo her?” Fu Sinian recalled carefully.

“Don’t tell me you didn’t woo her and got together just like that?” Old Madam Fu was stunned.

“I did woo her,” he answered firmly.

“For example…” Old Madam Fu raised her eyebrows. “Eating meals, taking walks, and watching movies together?”

“Yes.”

Old Madam Fu was very relieved in her heart. He didn’t seem too foolish. “You were the one who took the initiative, right?”

“She took the initiative.” Fu Sinian thought about it carefully. From when the water pipe in Yu Manxi’s condo burst to knocking on his door and eating later, she was almost always the first to speak.

“What about kissing?” Old Madam Fu was anxious.

“It’s her too.” Fu Sinian frowned. “I rejected her at first.”

Old Madam Fu was annoyed. “Rejected?”

“It didn’t feel good.”

Old Madam Fu was furious. “You don’t like her?”

Fu Sinian didn’t say anything. He naturally liked her in his heart. Otherwise, with his cold face, he would have scared her away long ago and wouldn’t have given the girl any good attitude.

“In that case, why are you pretending to be reserved? The young lady is already so proactive, yet you still refused her. How could our Fu family have a fool like you?” Old Madam Fu’s anger surged. What’s with him?

“She wasn’t my girlfriend or my wife back then. She shouldn’t have done it,” Fu Sinian said matter-of-factly.

“Oh my god. Old Fu, listen to what this brat is saying. According to what you said, the two of you aren’t married yet. If this was in ancient times, you wouldn’t even be able to hold her hand casually.”

“It’s the twenty-first century now. We have to keep up with the times,” Fu Sinian said firmly.

Old Madam Fu pinched the space between her eyebrows. “It’s not unreasonable for you to be single for more than thirty years. If you two continue to get along like this, something will definitely happen in the future. Shinan, teach your son properly how to date girls and what kind of attitude he should have.”

Fu Shinan was watching the news when he was suddenly called. He raised his head slightly and said a maxim, “Work hard to marry her. Don’t be a hooligan. You have to be responsible, take responsibility, and be loyal to your marriage.”

Fu Chen lowered his head and smirked. Actually, his eldest brother should have wanted to say be loyal to the country in the end.

Old Madam Fu reached out her hand to cover her chest. “Uncle Zhong, quickly bring me my pills. This father and son are going to anger me to death. These two people are useless.”

“Eldest Son’s attitude is very right. A man should be responsible,” Old Master Fu agreed.

“Don’t talk. Third Son, tell him…” Old Madam Fu placed her last hope on her youngest son.

Fu Chen coughed. “In this kind of matter, a man should take the initiative. Sometimes, you can’t be too domineering. You have to learn to respect the other party and…

“… learn how to create romance, such as giving something.

“You have to know how to be gentle and considerate. Especially when it comes to certain matters, it’s not good for girls to take the initiative.”

…

Fu Chen explained briefly, and Old Madam Fu’s anger finally calmed down a little. “You two, listen to this. Dating isn’t what you think.

“He didn’t inherit anything good, but he completely inherited his boring and foolish personality.

“Back then, if I didn’t see that you were interested in Yunqing and decided to go to the Dai family to make the engagement, this flower wouldn’t have landed on a pile of cow dung like you.”

In that era, it was still popular for children to let their parents be matchmakers. Fu Shinan and Dai Yunqing’s marriage was decided by the two families.

Back then, when the Dai family brought their daughter to the Fu residence as a guest, Fu Shinan’s eyes widened when he saw the young lady. He even invited her family to stay for dinner for the first time.

Throughout the meal, his eyes never left her, making her blush.

After the Dai family left, he was reprimanded by Old Master Fu.

He said that he was too rash and impolite. “It was her first time here. Why were you staring at her?”

Fu Shinan said, “She’s beautiful.”

“There are many good-looking girls. Look at how scared she was.”

“None of them are as beautiful as her.”

As soon as Old Madam Fu heard this, she was happy. There was a chance. Back then, there were many people who wanted to propose marriage to the Dai family. The Dai family also saw that Fu Shinan treated her differently and asked for their daughter’s opinion before agreeing to this marriage.

Before the two of them got married, they had watched a movie outdoors and held hands once. It was a typical case of getting married first before falling in love.

If Old Madam Fu hadn’t made a prompt decision, this marriage wouldn’t have fallen on the Fu family at all.

Fu Chen coughed twice. Pile of cow dung?

In this world, only his mother would dare to describe his eldest brother like this.

Fu Sinian lowered his head. He wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to. Fu Chen was more arrogant and presumptuous.

“Sinian, you have to be careful when wooing girls. Don’t learn from your father. Work hard. As your uncle, I’m also worried about you.”

Fu Sinian felt an inexplicable headache.

Fu Chen picked up an empty cup at the side and poured a cup of tea. He frowned slightly when the tea filled the cup. He couldn’t tell what kind of tea it was from the smell.

He took a sip. “What tea is this today?”

“This was specially prepared for Sinian,” Fu Shinan said, his eyes dark and smooth, revealing an unknown meaning.

Only then did Fu Sinian notice that no one had touched this pot of tea except him.

“What?” Fu Chen took another sip. Wolfberry? He couldn’t taste anything else. It should be some kind of medicine.

“It’s the Five Flavor Teas. It’s good for men.” Fu Shinan raised his eyebrows. “You don’t even have a girlfriend. Why are you drinking? Give it to your nephew.”

Fu Chen swallowed the tea and felt his throat burning. Who said I don’t have a girlfriend?!

Fu Chen looked calm on the outside. But in his heart, there was a small person constantly stomping his feet and scratching the walls. He was going crazy.

“Sinian, you’re already in your thirties. You should nourish your body and drink more.” Fu Chen pushed the tea over. “It’s most likely to nourish your kidneys and strengthen your body.”

But at this moment, while holding the teacup, Fu Sinian didn’t know whether to spit it out or swallow it.

He looked up, and Old Madam Fu opposite him smiled at him strangely.

When Old Master Fu saw Yu Manxi carrying the dishes out, he coughed twice, indicating that this topic should stop.

“Let’s not talk about it anymore. Sinian, I got someone to prepare a lot of tea packets for you. You can bring them back later. Remember to drink tea in the morning and afternoon. I heard that men who often stay up late aren’t good in that aspect, and it’s easy for your body to be emptied. You have to be careful,” Old Madam Fu said earnestly.

Fu Chen lowered his head and chuckled. “Your grandma might think that you have kidney deficiency.”

Fu Sinian’s face completely darkened. I’m very healthy!
