Old Fu residence, at the dining table…

Yu Manxi didn’t talk much. It was basically Old Madam Fu and Dai Yunqing talking.

“Little Yu, what are your plans for the afternoon?” Old Madam Fu only had one daughter, and she was still married far away, so she was always more patient with girls.

“Nothing.” Yu Manxi didn’t know when she would finish eating at the Fu residence, so she had asked for the entire day off from work.

“If you’re free in the afternoon, come with me to watch opera. Yunqing, are you coming along?” Old Madam Fu asked.

“Okay.” Dai Yunqing nodded.

Yu Manxi wasn’t an opera fan and didn’t understand the language of Beijing opera either. But since Old Madam Fu had spoken, she definitely had to agree.

“Later, I’ll bring you upstairs to take a look. In the study, there are many photos of Sinian when he was young. Before he went to university, he lived here.” Old Madam Fu smiled. “You have no idea how much fun he was when he was a child.”

Fu Shinan, who had been lowering his head and not speaking, suddenly looked up at his wife opposite him.

His pillow and blanket were still in the study. If Yu Manxi saw them, how could he, her father-in-law, establish his prestige in front of his daughter-in-law?

Dai Yunqing pretended not to see him and kept eating with her head lowered.

“Really?” Yu Manxi was very curious about this.

Dai Yunqing smiled. “Isn’t he a few years older than Third Brother? When he was young, he refused to call him uncle and kept calling him little brother. He was almost beaten to death by his grandfather. He’s as stubborn as an ox.

“He was angry with his grandfather that day. At the staircase…” Dai Yunqing pointed at the stairs leading to the second floor. “He hugged the railing tightly and threw a tantrum.

“He was crying with snot and tears all over his face, and he was even shouting about Little Brother Fu Chen. It made me die of laughter.”

Fu Sinian reached out to touch his forehead and coughed twice. “Mom, I was less than three years old back then.” Don’t talk about things from so long ago.

“The next day, this kid even said that he was going to run away from home. Then he really went to his maternal grandmother’s house alone. He scared me half to death. The entire family went out to look for him…” Dai Yunqing shook her head helplessly. “At the time, there were no home phones or cell phones, so it was inconvenient to contact others.

“Later, his maternal grandfather carried him back. He was still eating candy and smiling at me.”

Yu Manxi listened very seriously. “And then?”

“He came back and received another beating. His grandmother’s house is about an hour and a half’s walk away from our house. I really don’t know how he found her. What if something had happened?” Dai Yunqing still had lingering fears when she remembered what had happened back then.

Yu Manxi held back her laughter and glanced at Fu Sinian beside her. His face was completely dark.

“But Sinian is still considerate and sensible. When he was young, he knew how to take care of his uncle and brought Third Son out to play.” Old Madam Fu smiled kindly.

“Oh.” Yu Manxi nodded vigorously. A nephew taking his uncle out to play? This is unique.

“But one time, when the two of them went to the river to play, they almost had an accident. The boys were very naughty when they were young,” Dai Yunqing said.

Actually, Fu Chen and Fu Sinian’s childhood was no different from ordinary people’s. They might have been born in a large family, but as they slowly grew up, they had to be more disciplined. When they were children, they had fewer restrictions on the two of them. But after entering school, their lives were even more strict than ordinary children’s.

After lunch…

Using the excuse of wanting to make a call, Fu Shinan rushed to the study first. It had already been cleaned up, and his pillow and blanket were not here.

“I’ve already taken everything back to the room. Look at how anxious you are.” Dai Yunqing had appeared behind him at some point. “Don’t worry. I won’t embarrass you in front of Little Yu. I’ll leave you some face.”

“Then, I’ll sleep in the room tonight?” Fu Shinan’s expression was calm, but he was secretly delighted.

“Little Yu won’t spend the night here. When she leaves, you can move to the study. Look at how frightening you were that day. I wanted you to smile while being serious. What did you do? You almost scared her to tears.”

Fu Shinan frowned. I really tried my best.

Yu Manxi followed Old Madam Fu to the study to flip through the photo albums while Fu Chen and Fu Sinian accompanied Old Master Fu out for a walk.

Old Master Fu liked to smoke, but he couldn’t smoke at home, so he could only come out to have a taste.

“Don’t smoke too much,” Fu Chen reminded.

“I’ll just take a couple puffs. Your mother cares a lot about this. Let’s walk around for a bit more, and we can go back after the smell has cleared up.” Old Master Fu held his tobacco pipe in his hand and strolled leisurely around the compound. “Third Son, you have to hurry up with your marriage.”

After all, the two Fu elders were already old, and it was common for people in their thirties to get married. He was worried that he wouldn’t be able to see Fu Chen get married and start a family by the time he was gone, so he would mention it occasionally.

“I know.” Fu Chen reached out to support him.

“Say, Little Yu came to our house, but your mother wants to show her some photos. What’s there to see about them?” Old Master Fu shook his head repeatedly.

Fu Sinian’s meal had been tasteless. His mother and grandmother had echoed each other and almost revealed all of his embarrassing past.

Fortunately, his grandfather had stopped them in time. Otherwise, the topics might have gone somewhere really embarrassing.

Fu Chen curled his lips into a smile. “There’s indeed nothing much to see. But there are many nude photos of a young man’s butt.”

Fu Sinian’s body stiffened. He had almost forgotten about this. Why did they keep this kind of thing?

He immediately turned around and walked back.

When he rushed to the study, Yu Manxi was alone. She was sitting at the table and looking at the photos seriously. She was even holding her phone and taking pictures from time to time.

Yu Manxi looked serious and focused. By the time she felt a black shadow envelop her, Fu Sinian was already standing in front of her. There was a table between the two of them, and he was looking down at her from above. His deep eyes were calm and reserved, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

“Do they look good?”

“Quite good.” Yu Manxi had seen Fu Sinian’s bare buttock photos from the start. Her eyebrows scrunched up as she tried her best to hold back her laughter.

When she came to the Fu residence today, she had specially dressed up warmly and elegantly. The light-colored and wide knitted sweater made her look even softer and gentler. She was already extremely beautiful. And at this moment, she was biting her lip hard, and her pretty face was red.

Fu Sinian didn’t even know why he had rushed over. But at this moment, he leaned over subconsciously and suddenly reached out to cup her face.

Yu Manxi watched him move without moving. His body slowly approached her. When he was so close that she could feel his breathing, she was nervous and bit her lip even harder.

This is the Fu residence. What does he want to do?

Fu Sinian’s gaze landed on her red lips. He pressed his thumb over and exerted a little force to get her to stop biting her lower lip.

“Don’t bite.”

Yu Manxi’s teeth loosened, and she felt that her breathing was a little rapid.

Fu Sinian’s gaze became deeper and deeper. Yu Manxi knew what would happen next, but he didn’t move for a long time. The wait was really torturous.

Just as she was waiting for Fu Sinian to kiss her, he suddenly said, “Can I kiss you?”

His third uncle had said just now that he had to respect women.

Yu Manxi was stunned. “…”

With our current relationship, do you still have to ask about this kind of thing? Yu Manxi kept scratching her fingers, and her palms started to feel slightly hot.

“Yu Manxi, speak.” The voice was very close.

Yu Manxi pursed her lips and nodded lightly. Her face suddenly flushed red. What’s there to ask about this? Then she felt soft, wet, and hot lips land on her lips.

It was fluttering and intoxicating. It had rained last night, and the autumn sunlight was just right. When it fell in through the window, her entire body felt warm all over.

Perhaps because the sunlight was too bright, Yu Manxi looked up. When she opened her mouth, the tip of his tongue entered…

His lips, teeth, and tongue were indescribably sweet and wet.

The water was glistening. Fu Sinian had come around the table at some point and was almost leaning over her. He restrained her to the chair and kissed her even deeper…

Old Madam Fu had been explaining the photos to Yu Manxi in the study, but her eyesight wasn’t good, so she had gone back to her room to get her reading glasses. When she returned, she saw her grandson kissing the young lady until her face was red.

Oh, young people nowadays aren’t ashamed about kissing. They don’t even know to close the door.

Old Madam Fu closed the door for them out of goodwill. But when the door moved, the creak startled the two people inside.

Yu Manxi’s face was burning red, and she reached out to grab the corner of Fu Sinian’s shirt, feeling ashamed.

“Grandma?” Fu Sinian looked very calm.

“I’ll close the door. You two continue.”

“Thank you,” Fu Sinian actually replied matter-of-factly.

After Old Madam Fu closed the door, he looked at Yu Manxi. “Continue?”

Yu Manxi lowered her head and lightly knocked it against the table twice. I can’t even face anyone anymore. What continue?!

“We’re not continuing? Didn’t you feel good just now?” Fu Sinian said seriously.

Yu Manxi flipped through the photos randomly. Can’t this person be more tactful?

After Old Madam Fu left the room, she specially instructed her family not to disturb them in the study. Everyone was an adult and understood what she meant.

A few minutes later, the entire Fu family knew that Yu Manxi and Fu Sinian were making out in the study.

It made her even more embarrassed. Before accompanying Old Madam Fu and Dai Yunqing to the Pear Garden, she was too ashamed to see anyone else.

***

Yu Manxi’s process of meeting the Fu family went well. Thinking that she had troubled Song Fengwan when she asked her to accompany her shopping that day, she had invited her over to her place this weekend.

Song Fengwan was sunbathing on her balcony in Yishui Community.

It had been a while since Yan Wangchuan and Song Fengwan last met. Yan Wangchuan didn’t know how to cook, but he had learned how to make soup. Qiao Aiyun said that Song Fengwan had lost weight and asked Yan Wangchuan to help nourish her well. Then a certain someone started to make soup for her every day.

“Wanwan, I have a social gathering at noon, so I can’t eat with you. Are you staying here or going back to school?” Yan Wangchuan asked.

“I’m meeting a friend.”

“Fu Chen?”

“No, an elder sister invited me to her place for hotpot.”

“Is that kid going too?” Yan Wangchuan raised his eyebrows.

“Yes.” Song Fengwan didn’t hide it.

Yan Wangchuan couldn’t manage her too much. But with Fu Chen around, her safety was at least guaranteed.

When Song Fengwan went downstairs, Fu Chen’s car was already waiting here. Yan Wangchuan sent her down and gave Fu Chen a deep look. “Remember to send her back tonight.”

Fu Chen smiled. “I will.”

At this moment, Fu Sinian was in Yu Manxi’s condo, helping wash vegetables. Yu Manxi had only invited Song Fengwan, but his third uncle was shamelessly following her.

Is he treating this place as a dating location?

“Can Third Master eat spicy food?” Yu Manxi made the hot pot broth herself, so the taste was naturally different from the ones outside.

“It’s fine,” Fu Sinian replied casually.

Yu Manxi thought that since she still had the clear broth, she might as well add a few more red peppers. The broth was seasoned according to her taste, and she liked spicy food, so she felt that the spiciness was just right.

When Fu Chen went to the table to eat, perhaps because he didn’t expect the red broth to be so spicy, his throat started burning as soon as he took a bite.

He choked and coughed.

“Third Brother?” Song Fengwan hurriedly poured him a glass of water.

“Is it too spicy? Perhaps my taste is a little heavy.” Yu Manxi helped him get a bowl from the kitchen and poured some warm water. “Would you like to rinse your mouth?”

Fu Chen was a Buddhist, so he usually ate lightly and didn’t eat much chili. Still, he ate spicy food outside. But Yu Manxi’s soup was too choking and irritating, and he couldn’t take it.

“If I had known earlier, I would have put fewer peppers.” Yu Manxi looked at him nervously.

Fu Sinian pinched his chopsticks and frowned slightly when he saw that the two women at the dining table were anxious over Fu Chen. Song Fengwan is Third Uncle’s girlfriend, so it’s fine. But why is even my girlfriend revolving around him? Besides, it isn’t that spicy.

“Why don’t you have some clear broth? I’ll move the clear broth to your side.” Fu Chen was a guest, and he had helped her when he met Fu Sinian’s parents. Most importantly, Fu Sinian’s third uncle was an elder, so Yu Manxi definitely had to take care of him more.

“No need.” Fu Chen waved his hand.

At this moment, Fu Sinian, who had been silent, suddenly said, “For old people, their stomachs definitely won’t be able to take such greasy and hot food.”

Old? Fu Chen lifted his eyelids and looked at him. “Fu Sinian, my seniority is higher than yours. But in terms of age, you’re older than me.”

“So, at what age should people wear the clothes you’re wearing?” Fu Sinian sized up his clothes. In order to cater to Song Fengwan, Fu Chen’s clothes were more casual and fashionable.

Song Fengwan lowered her head and tried to hold back her laughter. He’s mocking Third Brother for acting young?

Fu Chen smiled at him and made a mental note.

Song Fengwan coughed twice.. In terms of age, they’re both old men. Is there a need to kill each other?
