Chapter 791: The Intention to Drive Her Away Could Not Be More Obvious

~4 min read 722 words

After all the procedures were completed, the group returned together to the small courtyard.

A flatbed cart was parked at the courtyard gate; Fu Yan Cheng lent a hand, packed everything they intended to take away, watched them leave, and then they entered the small courtyard.

Liu Chuxue took twelve hundred yuan out of her bag: "Here, take this money."

Fu Yan Cheng did not take the money; he simply kept staring at Liu Chuxue.

Seeing he wouldn't take it, Liu Chuxue asked: "What's wrong?"

Fu Yan Cheng sighed: "After the New Year we will get married; my future is yours anyway, so why keep such exact accounts with me?"

Liu Chuxue said: "This house counts as my dowry; when we move out later, your family won't have much to say."

Fu Yan Cheng pinched Liu Chuxue's small face: "Anyway, your name is on the property deed; say whatever you want. If you don't say it and I don't say it, who will know whose money paid for it? It's just moving money from one hand to the other; don't be so serious about it."

Seeing he absolutely would not take it, Liu Chuxue stopped making a fuss and put the money back into her bag.

She was quite satisfied with this small courtyard; although the number of rooms was not large, each room was spacious, and it was a south-facing house with large windows, so the interior was very bright: "Alright, since we can't live here for now anyway, I'll come over another day when I have time to tidy up."

Fu Yan Cheng said: "Let your uncle and aunt move in first; later, when they find a house, they can move out. Anyway, this house is empty regardless."

Liu Chuxue thought for a moment: "That could work, but don't mention beforehand that the house is under my name."

Fu Yan Cheng nodded: "Alright, I understand."

No matter what she said, he would do it; as for what she truly meant, there was no need to dig deeper.

After walking around once, the two prepared to leave.

Closing the main gate, Fu Yan Cheng took a new lock directly from his pocket: "Use this lock."

Liu Chuxue accepted it with a smile: "You are always so thoughtful."

Fu Yan Cheng took her directly to the State-run Hotel: "Since it's already mealtime, even if I just take you back, you'd go to the cafeteria to eat anyway, so you might as well eat first before returning."

Liu Chuxue naturally raised no objection.

Fu Yan Cheng pointed to a seat inside: "You go sit there first; I'll go order the dishes."

The two ordered three dishes: two meat and one vegetable, a small bowl of rice, and a portion of noodles.

There were not many people at this time, so they were called over very quickly to pick up their food.

Seeing there was fish today, Fu Yan Cheng ordered one; just as he was helping Liu Chuxue pick out the bones, he heard someone walking over this way, and a voice pitched high said: "Yan Cheng, what a coincidence."

Liu Chuxue was about to pick up food; hearing this voice, she immediately got goosebumps and looked up to see who was coming.

It was a rather beautiful woman; yes, a woman.

She was not very tall, and her skin was not very fair, but she was indeed very pretty.

After the woman approached, she did not ignore Liu Chuxue; however, after nodding at her, her eyes stuck to Fu Yan Cheng.

Liu Chuxue's mood instantly soured: Could this be another of Fu Yan Cheng's flirtations?

Fu Yan Cheng said coldly: "Indeed, quite a coincidence."

But while speaking, he did not delay in picking out the fish bones.

After removing all the fish bones, he picked one up and placed it in Liu Chuxue's bowl: "Taste this fish and see how it is."

Only after finishing did he look at the standing woman: "If you aren't ordering food, what are you standing here for?"

The woman, not expecting him to be so dismissive, showed embarrassment on her face: "I just saw you and came over to say hello."

Fu Yan Cheng nodded: "You've said hello; hurry up and go order your food."

The intention to drive her away could not be more obvious.
