- Chapter 65 - Returning to the Old Mansion, Meeting the Brain-Dead Man
“Baby, relax a little.” Fu Chenyan looked at the girl beside him, her back stiff with tension, and chuckled softly as he gently scratched her palm to soothe her.
Li Muli knew that the Fu family did not welcome Fu Chenyan.
And at this point, Fu Chenyan had not yet reached the heights he had in his previous life.
An inexplicable unease stirred in her heart.
The way the girl’s lips puckered slightly amused Fu Chenyan, making her look like an adorable little hamster.
Her cheeks puffed out, rising and falling with her breath.
If it weren’t for the need to confront Tao Ran and her useless son, Fu Jingyun, he would have loved to spend some alone time with his adorable wife.
Today was their marriage registration day.
It was also the birthday gift his wife had given him.
“Be good, or I’ll kiss you,” the man’s low, teasing voice rumbled out.
The girl shot him a look that was both coquettish and reproachful. “Focus on driving. I’ve never seen a kiss addict like you in this lifetime.”
Nor in the previous one.
“Hmm, and it’ll only be me in the next lifetime too.”
Little did he know that his offhand remark would one day come true.
“Tsk~”
Her drawn-out tone teased the man’s heartstrings.
In the past, returning to the Fu family had always been a gloomy and oppressive experience, but this year, he felt more courage and fighting spirit.
Because he had her.
He was learning to love the beauty in this world.
Soon, they arrived at the Fu family’s old mansion.
Opulent, luxurious.
“Let’s go, baby.” Fu Chenyan leaned in to kiss the corner of the girl’s lips, then wrapped his arm around her slender waist.
The mansion was magnificent yet cold and desolate.
No one came forward to greet them, no one offered any words of welcome.
A clear and deliberate snub, meant to humiliate.
A cold smile tugged at Fu Chenyan’s lips as he strode confidently into the house.
“Looks like big brother is back.”
A man sat with his legs crossed, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his expression frivolous and his smile mocking.
A gentle, motherly voice chimed in, “Jingyun, smoke less. It’s not good for your health.”
“Mom, I’m old enough. Stop nagging me.”
His tone was impatient.
At the same time, Old Master Fu descended the stairs. The smell of smoke made him cough incessantly. After a moment, he slammed his cane forcefully against the floor, his demeanor overbearing. “You brat, go outside if you want to smoke!”
Tao Ran shot the man a meaningful glance and stepped forward with a smile to support the old man. “Dad, Jingyun is still young. Don’t take it to heart.”
Fu Jingyun extinguished his cigarette and stood up, wearing an ingratiating smile. “Grandpa, it won’t happen again.”
The only person he feared in this house was Old Master Fu.
Old Master Fu cast a cold glance his way, his eyes stern and authoritative.
“Chenyan and his wife are here. Let’s get ready for dinner.”
Fu Jingyun’s eyes lit up. He had heard that his legendary sister-in-law was an absolute stunning beauty.
Tsk, those legs, that waist, that face.
Just seeing her photo had captivated him, haunting his dreams.
If only,
If she were his,
Tsk, tsk.
Fu Jingyun licked his lips with a smirk, already growing impatient.
“Grandpa.” A man’s voice sounded from the doorway, low and devoid of any discernible emotion.
The tall, robust man stood with his arm around the petite, enchanting woman, a picture of perfect harmony.
Fu Jingyun’s gaze burned almost uncontrollably as he watched them enter.
Damn, she was breathtaking.
This woman was even more beautiful and mesmerizing than she appeared in photos.
She had the power to captivate souls.
Lost in his thoughts, he casually wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb. “Big brother, sister-in-law, good evening.”
First impressions mattered, after all.
He needed to make sure the beauty before him had a favorable opinion of him.
Fu Chenyan seemed not to have heard, not even sparing him a glance as he led Li Muli to their seats.
Fu Jingyun sneered inwardly and decisively sat beside Li Muli.
Fu Chenyan cast him a fleeting glance, cold as ice.
It was both a warning and a threat.
“Let’s eat.”
With the command from Old Master Fu, the others picked up their chopsticks.
It felt more like a business dinner than a family gathering.
“Why didn’t you tell the family about your marriage?”
Old Master Fu glanced at Fu Chenyan, his hands never pausing as he continued to serve himself food.
As if it were just casual conversation.
The man’s voice was low and somber. “I married because I wanted to.”
Old Master Fu was momentarily silenced and didn’t press further.
His grandson had always been cold and detached, devoid of ordinary emotions. His blood ran cold.
With exceptional abilities, he was gradually breaking free from the old man’s control.
On the surface, he remained within the Fu Corporation, but no one knew the extent of his ventures behind the scenes.
The younger generation was formidable.
As long as he brought benefits to the Fu family, he was valuable.
Tao Ran cast a fleeting glance at Li Muli, her lips curling in unmistakable sarcasm. “I heard Miss Li is an actress?”
Li Muli smiled faintly and was about to respond when Fu Jingyun cut in, “Is my elder brother short of money for his wife?”
Li Muli inwardly scoffed. It was the 21st century, how could someone still be so brainless?
The girl’s eyes curved into a smile, her red lips lifting slightly as she addressed Fu Jingyun, “You could try taking Atorvastatin Calcium and Aspirin.”
She remembered clearly, these two had always bullied her beloved.
Well, she’d be a little kinder to the older woman.
Better to direct her barbs at the ugly man.
Fu Jingyun was momentarily dazzled by her smile and wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth. “Understood, sister-in-law.”
Li Muli: “…” Understood what?
That the medication she mentioned was for treating brain deficiencies?
Fu Chenyan frowned deeply, his gloom almost palpable. Sensing the low pressure beside her, Li Muli placed her left hand on the man’s thigh.
A silent comfort.
Seeing the girl smile at him, Fu Jingyun grew even more convinced she had feelings for him. “Sister-in-law, you look beautiful when you smile.”
It was practically an open flirtation.
“Just the perfect match for your elder brother.”
Annoy the ugly man, flaunt her handsome husband.
Fu Chenyan’s lips curved slightly. The girl’s small hand was still stroking his leg.
She was comforting him.
She was standing up for him.
For the first time in his life, he felt someone shielding him, charging into battle on his behalf.
He was ecstatic.
He was profoundly grateful.
“Chenyan, come with me after you’ve finished eating.” Old Master Fu rose first, leaning on his cane. He had no interest in meddling in the younger generation’s affairs.
Fu Chenyan’s brow remained furrowed. If he left, his wife would be alone, and he wasn’t at ease.
Li Muli leaned in and gently kissed the corner of his lips. “Don’t worry about me. It’s fine.”
An intimate gesture, as if no one else were present.
“Message me if anything happens.” Fu Chenyan gently ruffled her hair, soothing her.
Once the man had left, only the three of them remained at the table.
Fu Jingyun shot Tao Ran a meaningful glance. Understanding, she calmly excused herself.
That seductress really was a seductress so easily ensnaring her son.
Not that she minded. Just a woman to toy with.
She’d be delighted to see Fu Chenyan wearing horns.
How could she not want to witness his madness and despair?
How could she not relish the spectacle?
Li Muli curled her lips into a faint, cold smile and continued eating calmly.
She was genuinely curious,what exactly did that brainless, ugly man intend to do?
