Chapter 1771: Song Sanrui's Words Were Too Easy to Misunderstand

~4 min read 702 words

The reason they were able to capture those people so quickly is that the latter were careless, thinking they were too familiar with this area.

Moreover, they never expected the Public Security and the troops to strike simultaneously, catching them off guard.

Because Du Juan was frightened, the police station specifically approved leave for Jiang Minghua so he could stay home and comfort Du Juan.

After Liu Chuxue and Fu Yan Cheng brought Du Juan home, they did not stay long: "We are returning to our home at Shichahai; you take good care of Du Juan."

Although Liu Chuxue's words were still relatively gentle, Jiang Minghua knew she was truly angry with him; if not for Du Juan's sake, she would have likely dealt with him long ago.

Those words were indeed true; originally, Liu Chuxue intended to teach Jiang Minghua a lesson, but now Du Juan still needed his comfort.

Fu Yan Cheng and Liu Chuxue returned to their home at Shichahai, thinking they would not knock on the door in the dead of night.

He directly climbed over the wall into the courtyard, opened the main gate, and prepared to let Liu Chuxue in.

As a result, a gust of force attacked from behind; had he not dodged fast enough, it would have struck his face. He quickly called out: "Song Sanrui, it's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Song Sanrui said: "Brother Fu, did you go on a mission?"

Seeing Fu Yan Cheng pull someone in from outside the gate: "Brother Fu, who are you pulling in?"

Fu Yan Cheng did not want him to ask further: "I pulled in your sister-in-law. Go rest quickly; we can talk about anything tomorrow morning."

Song Sanrui responded and went back inside, but a moment later he came out of the room again, holding a thermos: "Brother Fu, I've placed the thermos outside the door for you."

Hearing this, Liu Chuxue glanced at Fu Yan Cheng: "What Song Sanrui said is too easy to misunderstand."

Hearing her say this, Fu Yan Cheng laughed directly: "You are talking about yourself, aren't you? Alright, no more joking. I'll mix some water for you to wash up; let's sleep quickly, as we have important matters tomorrow."

Liu Chuxue was indeed extremely sleepy; after a simple wash, she got into bed.

Fu Yan Cheng originally had more to say to her, but upon seeing that Liu Chuxue was already asleep, he stopped.

He could only kiss her face before embracing her and falling asleep.

Early the next morning, when they got up, Gu Xiaomi and his wife had already prepared breakfast.

Song Sanrui then asked the question from yesterday: "Brother Fu, Sister-in-law, why were you still in the city so late last night? Did something happen?"

Fu Yan Cheng briefly told him what had happened last night.

After speaking, he urged Liu Chuxue: "Wife, eat quickly while it's hot; we have matters to attend to in a moment."

Thinking of the appointed time, Liu Chuxue said: "Alright, I understand."

They had slept too late last night and woke up only when the sun was high; if they did not hurry, they feared missing the appointed time.

Liu Chuxue simply ate a boiled egg and drank a small bowl of porridge before rushing out with Fu Yan Cheng.

They went to the bank first. Liu Chuxue took out the bankbook she had carried on her person before leaving yesterday and later placed in her space, withdrew enough money to buy a house, and only then headed to the Housing Administration Bureau.

When they arrived, that family was already waiting there.

Upon seeing them appear, their eyes all showed joy: finally, they had gotten rid of this troublesome house.

After all, having connections in the court makes things easier; money exchanged hands for the house, and the new property certificate was quickly issued fresh. Fu Yan Cheng had the staff write Liu Chuxue's name directly.

Liu Chuxue did not make a fuss; writing anyone's name was the same anyway.

Liu Chuxue also took an extra precaution, having that family write a receipt for the payment and have their family members sign and press their thumbprints before letting them leave.
