Chapter 640: Which Side Are You On, After All?

Geng Shuangling is a looks-lover, and is very fond of her pretty fourth sister-in-law.

That sweet little mouth of hers, calling her "sister-in-law" over and over without stopping.

Liu Chuxue's journey — from being uncomfortable at first, to being forced to accept it, to now accepting it well — was all observed by Fu Yan Cheng one by one.

The smile at the corner of his mouth never faded.

Geng Shuangling scooted up to Liu Chuxue: "Fourth sister-in-law, I heard you work at the Rolling Mill's Finance Office. I really envy you. I wonder if I can find a job after I graduate from high school?"

Thinking of something, she suddenly leaned closer to Liu Chuxue: "My mom said, if I really can't find one, she'll give up her job for me."

Liu Chuxue smiled at her: "Your mom is really good to you."

Geng Shuangling, hearing this, instead pouted her lips: "It should be a good thing, but all my sisters-in-law have their eyes on my mom's job. If she really gives it to me, the family probably won't have any peace."

Liu Chuxue didn't know how to respond, and sighed inwardly: every family really does have its own difficult scripture to recite.

At this moment, Fu's mother also came back from the doctor's office: "I asked. Physician Zhao said as long as the wound doesn't fester again and shows signs of scabbing, we can handle the discharge, and going home to recuperate is fine too."

After saying that, she looked at Fu's mother: "Chuxue, how long can you stay here?"

Liu Chuxue said straightforwardly: "I have one more day off tomorrow. I'll leave the military hospital no later than the morning of the day after tomorrow."

Yes, she had already made inquiries — there's a shuttle bus into the city at six in the morning here, which would let her make it back to the factory for work in plenty of time.

She and Fu Yan Cheng weren't married yet, so she couldn't take on the entire task of caring for him; doing so would probably only make the Fu family look down on her.

But since they were already engaged and would marry and live together in the future, she wouldn't ignore him when she clearly had vacation days.

Besides, with the help of the spatial pool water, his body definitely wouldn't have any aftereffects. Even if she wasn't there to care for him afterward, his body would still recover quite a bit faster than normal.

Her not being by his side wouldn't arouse suspicion either.

Fu's mother wasn't an unreasonable person. Liu Chuxue really had been too busy these past few days, and it wasn't realistic to have someone else come take over the care, but having her stay here the whole time definitely wouldn't do: "Alright then, I'll go back tomorrow to deal with the work on hand, and come over early the day after tomorrow. You leave on time when it's time."

Once things were settled, Fu's mother looked at her niece: "I'm going to the restroom. We'll leave in a bit."

Geng Shuangling nodded: "Okay."

Seeing her aunt go out, she glanced at her fourth older cousin, then scooted up to Liu Chuxue's ear: "Fourth sister-in-law, how did you end up falling for my fourth older cousin who never smiles?"

Liu Chuxue, amused, looked at her, and was just about to answer when she heard Fu Yan Cheng say: "You little girl, what bad things are you saying about me now?"

Geng Shuangling hadn't expected to be caught by her fourth older cousin, and quickly waved her hands at him, not forgetting to wink at Liu Chuxue: "No, no, don't wrong me."

Liu Chuxue, seeing her both timid and defiant like this, burst out laughing.

Turning her head to look at Fu Yan Cheng: "What are you doing? Look how scared you've made her."

Fu Yan Cheng, contrary to his usual self, said with a hint of acting coquettish: "Which side are you on, after all?"

Liu Chuxue found him a bit childish, but still said with amusement: "Naturally on your side."

Fu Yan Cheng patted the side of his bed: "Stay away from her, save yourself from her telling you this and that, which would affect our relationship?"

Geng Shuangling hadn't expected her fourth older cousin to be like this in front of his fourth sister-in-law. Clicking her tongue in wonder inwardly, she couldn't help giving Liu Chuxue a thumbs-up.

Liu Chuxue had a good impression of Fu Yan Cheng's cousin sister: "Come find me to hang out when you have time."

Thinking that in a few more months she would be marrying Fu Yan Cheng, it was quite necessary to understand every member of the Fu family. It wasn't appropriate to ask others to find out, and she was afraid Fu Yan Cheng's account would be one-sided, so she felt asking Geng Shuangling was very suitable.
