Chapter 999: I Really Guessed It Right

~4 min read 758 words

Being good to the original body's relatives was because she occupied the original body's form, helped them change the tragic ending in the book, and even returned to her ancestral clan, which could be seen as repaying the karmic debt.

As for the future, she would interact more if they got along, and keep her distance if they didn't; Liu Chuxue would not dwell on it for a moment.

Regarding Chunxiao, Liu Chuxue had long given up hope.

She was already thirteen; her biological parents couldn't manage her, so what could an outsider pretending to be an older sister do? Besides, even if she wanted to manage her, given Chunxiao's rebellious nature now, she simply wouldn't listen, so Liu Chuxue wouldn't do something that took effort but yielded no gratitude.

Liu Chuxue didn't care how Chunxiao caused trouble; she took Fu Yan Cheng directly into the kitchen, served him a portion of the family's breakfast, and said, "Eat quickly, or you'll miss the bus."

Fu Yan Cheng wouldn't be polite with his future wife; he handed over the fried dough sticks he had brought, saying, "Try some."

Liu Chuxue took them, smiled, and said, "Just call them fried dough sticks; why 'bamboo-stick fruits'?"

After speaking, she took a bite directly: "The master's skills are not bad."

Seeing that she liked it, Fu Yan Cheng glanced outside, leaned close to Liu Chuxue, and whispered, "These weren't bought at the state-run restaurant; they were reserved in advance with someone."

Liu Chuxue teased, "You wouldn't be trying to tell me they were made by someone like a descendant of the imperial chefs, would you?"

Hearing her words, Fu Yan Cheng actually nodded: "You guessed it right."

Liu Chuxue looked shocked and said, "I really guessed it right?"

Seeing her expression, Fu Yan Cheng laughed and said, "Yes, you guessed it right; it shows my Xue'er is smart."

After the two finished eating, they didn't delay much and went out the door.

Fu Yan Cheng wasn't wearing his military uniform today; as soon as he stepped out the main gate, he reached out and took Liu Chuxue's hand: "Xue'er, when the weather gets warmer in a while, will you go to the army unit to visit relatives?"

Liu Chuxue glanced at him: "Sure."

Fu Yan Cheng continued, "As per your request, I've already spoken to the logistics department; the Liu Xiaoyuan assigned to us is in the last row, and the house is near the foot of the mountain."

She naturally understood what Fu Yan Cheng meant by asking her to go there.

After Fu Yan Cheng finished speaking, he kept stealing glances at her.

Liu Chuxue found it somewhat amusing: "If there's anything else, just say it all at once."

Fu Yan Cheng coughed lightly: "Have you thought about joining the army after marriage?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuxue actually paused for a moment.

This was indeed an issue; although the army dependents' compound wasn't too far from the city, commuting daily by bus to work and back was indeed inconvenient: "If there's a suitable job, I wouldn't mind."

Although she had a cheat code and stored enough unexpected wealth in her space to lie flat for a lifetime, she didn't plan to tell anyone about the space, so she still needed a visible income; when the signal of reform and opening-up sounded, she would be among the first to eat the crab.

Of course, she didn't plan to exhaust herself working personally; she would just choose suitable partners to invest in then; having others work and earn money for her was a win-win.

Hearing Liu Chuxue's words, Fu Yan Cheng knew there was a chance, and the joy on his face was impossible to hide: "Don't worry, I'll look for one for you in advance; we'll talk if we find something suitable."

During the first lunar month, many people visited relatives and friends; if they arrived any later, they probably really would have missed this bus.

The backpack couldn't get on the bus, so Fu Yan Cheng simply climbed onto the roof from the back and tied it to the luggage rack specifically for storing baggage on the roof.

Liu Chuxue carried the basket of eggs onto the bus.

There were no seats left, but fortunately, the two of them occupied the engine hood.

After the car started, many more people got on from the back, all standing in the middle aisle; Fu Yan Cheng took the basket of eggs from Liu Chuxue's hands: "I'll hold it; you sit steady."
