Chapter 1083: Really Can't Bear to Part With You

~4 min read 790 words

Liu Chuxue's hands didn't stop moving as she smiled and teased, "It seems your childhood friend has caused no small amount of trouble from childhood to adulthood."

Fu Yan Cheng glanced outside, the smile on his lips never fading: "Anyway, every time he gets into trouble, he spends several days unable to get out of bed."

No need to guess why he couldn't get out of bed; he must have been disciplined. Thinking of that scene made her shiver directly.

With Fu Yan Cheng's help, the kitchen soon wafted with fragrance.

Tao Sijun smelled the aroma in the air: "Yan Cheng will have good fortune for his palate in the future."

Zhang Jianye glanced toward the kitchen: "Anyway, since the door is acknowledged, in the future, as long as I know Brother Fu is back, I can shamelessly come over to mooch a meal."

Du Rubing rolled his eyes at him: "If you really did that, Brother Fu would probably never let you step foot here again; who are you to blatantly act as a third wheel?"

While the group joked and laughed, Fu Yan Cheng's voice came over: "The food is ready, get ready to eat."

Liu Chuxue's cooking skills were already good, and with the produce from the space, the taste naturally couldn't be bad.

The group initially cared about their image, but the more they ate, the less they could stop, until finally the plates and bowls were empty yet they still felt somewhat reluctant to leave.

The door was acknowledged, the meal was eaten, and the group no longer stayed behind to act as third wheels.

After seeing the group off, Fu Yan Cheng closed the courtyard gate, pulled the person into his arms, and said, "I really can't bear to part with you."

Saying this, he bent down and picked the person up; although Liu Chuxue had no defense, she had become immune after being carried so many times.

She reached out and wrapped her arms around Fu Yan Cheng's neck: "I will come to the family compound to see you on the weekend."

Fu Yan Cheng received the signal; at an age where blood and qi were vigorous, how could he still endure? He carried her into the room and engaged in a bout of mutual affection.

At the state-run restaurant, the Fu couple and Ren Jiangfeng's aunt were also conversing happily: "In-laws, you know I live far from here and it is not easy to come over; since the two children have taken a liking to each other, I have an unreasonable request."

The Fu couple had actually guessed what Ren's aunt was going to say; after exchanging a glance, Fu's father raised his hand and signaled, "Speak."

Ren's aunt said somewhat embarrassedly: "The two children are returning to the farm this afternoon, and I must depart early tomorrow morning to return to Yunnan Province; the time is indeed a bit insufficient. Can we finalize the engagement of the two children today? Rest assured, the betrothal gifts that should be given will not be lacking a single item; please understand."

Now that Jiangfeng has already severed ties with his original family, and since their daughter likes him, they would not keep dwelling on past matters.

Seeing their daughter's face already flushed with shame, and seeing his wife had no objection, Fu's father said: "Since the two children are mutually affectionate, we respect Xiao Wan."

Ren's aunt stood up excitedly and bowed to the Fu couple: "Thank you so much; I thank you on behalf of my brother and sister-in-law. Xiao Wan is a good girl, and our Jiangfeng is a fortunate one."

Saying this, she took a large document bag from her bag and handed it over: "These are the tickets and money for her purchase of the 'three rounds and one sound' that I prepared in advance; the small envelope inside is the betrothal gift I am giving to Xiao Wan on behalf of my brother and sister-in-law."

Ren Jiangfeng did not expect his aunt to have prepared these things in advance: "Aunt, I have my own..."

Ren's aunt stopped her nephew: "Xiaofeng, from childhood to adulthood, your aunt has not fulfilled her responsibilities; will you just let your aunt express her heart?"

The truth is, Beijing is too far from Yunnan Province; she wanted to take her nephew away, but Xiaofeng was unwilling, and furthermore, she did not want to beat the ducks apart.

Since she had not fulfilled her responsibilities for the previous twenty-plus years, naturally she could not now force her nephew; but she owed her nephew and let down her brother and sister-in-law, so she wanted to do her utmost to compensate her nephew as much as possible.
