Chapter 230: Her Marriage to Her Cousin

~4 min read 609 words

Yun Ruojin watches Fu He Song warily, "I don't understand what you mean."

Fu He Song suddenly steps forward, looking at Yun Ruojin as if about to kiss, "I won't let you ruin ours; if you don't believe it, try it…"

Their interaction appears to others as fostering affection, and Fu Zhuo smiles brightly.

"It seems it's good between kids, easier to get together."

Yun Ruofeng echoes with a smile, but his expression remains inscrutable.

Yun Ruojin is not someone who compromises so easily.

Destroying herself for others' benefit is not something Yun Ruojin would do.

"We're waiting for your good news; when Fu Sijue is together with A Jin, our plan will be half successful," Yun Ruofeng says, shaking hands with Fu Zhuo.

Fu Zhuo chuckles.

"Your father is truly fortunate; having such good children as you two, please convey my regards to him."

Both have fully performed their outward politeness.

After they leave, Fu Zhuo finally looks at Fu He Song, "That Yun Family child is really a shrewd person."

He guessed everything they were thinking.

"Dad, do you really believe what Yun Ruofeng said?"

Fu He Song's face is full of worry, about to speak but stops.

Not only is Yun Ruofeng a shrewd person, Yun Ruojin is no slouch either.

The brother and sister have decided to keep them in check.

"What's the use of not believing?"

The Yun Family and they are now like grasshoppers on the same rope; if trouble arises, none can escape.

After speaking, Fu Zhuo drags Fu He Song out the door, heading straight for the Fu Family Old Residence.

Fu Mingcheng sees they have arrived and happily has the nanny prepare a huge table of dishes.

"You needn't be so polite with us; we're family," Fu Zhuo pretends to laugh, echoing Fu Mingcheng, then turns his head to look upstairs.

"You've been away so long; finally you come back to visit home. I've prepared something nice for you; let's catch up properly."

As Fu Mingcheng speaks, he feels an urge to weep, but Fu He Song promptly hands him a sheet of paper.

"Dad, you say you're always so sentimental—what's that about? Haven't He Song and I already returned?" Fu Zhuo, no matter how hard‑hearted, can't bear this scene, so he keeps comforting Fu Mingcheng.

It finally takes a while for Fu Mingcheng's emotions to settle, and then Fu Zhuo gets to the point.

"Has A Jue always been living outside?"

Fu Zhuo furrows his brow slightly, asking with clear displeasure.

Fu Mingcheng pauses, then nods, "Since the marriage, A Jue moved out and has been staying at Hengshan Gongguan."

Fu Mingcheng feels indifferent about it.

After all, compared to Fu Zhuo being away for over a decade, Fu Sijue still often returns to see him.

Fu Zhuo, indignant, slams the table, "A Jue is good in every way, but this one I can't stand; how could he let you live alone?"

"If something happens, it's a loss for our whole family!"

Seeing Fu Zhuo's agitation, Fu Mingcheng quickly steps in to smooth things over.

"I still have the nanny looking after me; it's fine."

Fu Zhuo lets out another deep sigh and speaks at length to Fu Zhuo.

"You've become too accustomed to A Jue; I only went abroad because I had no choice. How can you let the elderly live alone while your own grandson is still at home? That's just unacceptable!"

Fu Mingcheng says nothing.

Fu He Song chimes in, playing both the angry and the gentle role, swirling Fu Mingcheng around.

"By the way, Dad, have you found a suitable marriage partner for A Jue?"
