Chapter 1064: Just Speak Your Mind; Why Launch a Sneak Attack

Fu Yan Cheng, dressed in his military uniform, made Ren Jiangfeng feel immense pressure: "Fourth Brother..."

He had just called out "Fourth Brother" when Fu Yan Cheng cut him off: "Please address me as Comrade Fu; 'Fourth Brother' is not appropriate."

Hearing this, Ren Jiangfeng grew even more nervous, fearing Fu Yan Cheng would not give him a chance to explain: "Fourth Brother Fu, I am truly sorry about the last incident. I know that no matter how much I explain, a mistake is a mistake, and further explanation is merely making excuses.

However, please believe that my feelings for Yanwan are sincere. Previously, I perhaps worried I could not bring Yanwan happiness, but I trust you have already inquired about my situation. I took this leave to return and handle family matters; my aunt has already helped me recover the belongings and money left by my parents.

Although these things were not created by me, having them provides security for Yanwan and my future. Please rest assured, I will work harder in the future. I ask Fourth Brother Fu to give me a chance."

Fu Yan Cheng was about to say something else when Chuxue lightly tugged him under the table. Since Yanwan still wished to move forward, and since he was merely an older brother, some matters ultimately depended on the in-laws' wishes.

She took the lead in speaking: "Ren Jiangfeng, right? You must have other matters to attend to today?"

Ren Jiangfeng did not expect Yanwan's sister-in-law to be so sharp: "Yes, I indeed came today primarily for a matter."

She glanced at Yanwan standing beside her before turning her gaze back to her future brother-in-law and his wife: "This time, my aunt specifically took leave to come to the Capital City to handle my affairs. Matters with the Ren family are nearly settled. Upon learning of my relationship with Yanwan, she wished to take this opportunity to meet Yanwan's family. Since the leave is limited and she feared her sudden visit might seem abrupt, she asked me to come first to greet Uncle and Aunt."

Chuxue looked at Fu Yan Cheng.

Having received his wife's warning, Fu Yan Cheng naturally ceased making things difficult for the man, speaking only lightly: "Today is Monday; they have gone to work."

Chuxue thought that they would be returning to her family's home soon; a lone man and woman together would be hard to explain and easy to misinterpret: "I heard your aunt is in Yunnan Province; coming to the Capital City is not easy. Why not return first to accompany your aunt, then come over again closer to the time they finish work?"

Ren Jiangfeng was not foolish; he immediately understood what his sister-in-law meant and felt regret in his heart that he should have come yesterday: "Sister-in-law, you are indeed considerate."

Finishing his words, he smiled at Yanwan standing beside him: "Then I will return first and come back a bit later."

Yanwan originally wanted to say, "In less than two hours, my family will be back. If there is no urgent matter, it would be better to wait here and save the trouble of running back and forth."

But before she could open her mouth, she saw her own sister-in-law shake her head slightly at her, so the words she had on her lips twisted into: "That works too."

Fu Yan Cheng naturally saw the silent exchange between his wife and his younger sister, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Chuxue smiled at her sister-in-law: "Go see him off, but don't go far. We need to tidy up and prepare to set off."

Yanwan nodded: "Okay."

After they left, Fu Yan Cheng glanced around the courtyard, and taking advantage of the moment, quickly kissed Chuxue on the cheek: "Thank you for thinking of Yanwan."

Chuxue, with her free hand, lightly pushed him, coquettishly scolding: "Just speak your mind; why launch a sneak attack? Aren't you afraid someone might see?"

Fu Yan Cheng took the bowl and chopsticks from her hand and lowered his voice: "Kissing my wife; even if someone sees, I am not afraid."

Finishing his words, he quickly walked toward the kitchen with the bowl and chopsticks: "I will wash the dishes; you tidy up. Once Xiao Wan returns, we will leave. We cannot return too late today for the visit to her family."
