Chapter 69

Shu Xuan still had a dark expression, "Was that car bought by that man?"

Xia Xia is only so young, yet she just casually found a man to live with?

At the mere thought that Xia Xia might have been heartbroken because of Fu Chenyan, his chest throbbed with pain, and he felt an uncontrollable urge to go and kill Fu Chenyan.

"I bought it myself; our family's life will get better from now on," Shu Xia said.

Shu Xuan frowned; this kind of new energy compact car cost about a hundred thousand or so, and Xia Xia had indeed been able to earn some money from her restoration work recently, "Are you living with him now?"

"Yes, it's his house." Shu Xia looked straight ahead at the heavy traffic, suddenly feeling that the heavy burden in her heart had been lifted.

Shu Xuan was silent, not speaking for a full thirty minutes.

When they were almost at his company dormitory, he finally opened his mouth, "Xia Xia, find an opportunity for me to meet him."

"I'll arrange for him to meet Big Brother in a while, but please don't tell Mom and Second Brother about the fact that I've already registered my marriage yet; they will definitely worry."

Shu Xia's eyes flickered. Let Qiao Muting meet Shu Xuan? He probably wouldn't agree to see her family.

She had self-awareness; the relationship between her and Qiao Muting existed only on a piece of paper—an agreement.

As the car came to a stop, Shu Xuan sighed deeply, "Is he good to you?"

"He is very good to me, it's just that his personality is a bit... aloof." Shu Xia searched for the right words.

"Aloofness might not be a bad thing sometimes; it's better than Fu Chenyan's honeyed words." Shu Xuan felt slightly relieved.

When Shu Xuan got out of the car, he was still very worried, "Xia Xia, if anything happens in the future, you must tell me immediately."

"I will in the future," Shu Xia replied obediently.

——

The rental apartment.

Fu Chenyan vigorously scratched his hair, which had already become a bird's nest.

Looking at the overwhelming number of revelations on the internet, he nearly crushed his phone.

When he asked Lin Miao, Lin Miao just kept saying they were thinking of a way.

Fu Chenyan regretted it to the point of his guts turning green.

He shouldn't have issued any statement; he should have waited. Now, under that statement of his, there were already tens of thousands of comments cursing him.

Although the heat had been suppressed a little by the Lin Family, he had been dismissed by the company!

Suddenly, Fu Chenyan's mother called.

"Son, is what they're saying on the internet true? Are you and that Lin Miao together?" Fu Chenyan's mother asked anxiously.

Fu Chenyan's eyes were bloodshot, "Mom, we... we aren't really together."

"Mom remembers you saying before that although Shu Xia returned to her biological parents, her biological parents don't seem to like her, and they prefer Lin Miao, is that right?" Fu Chenyan's mother continued to ask.

"Yes, why, Mom? I'm very annoyed right now. Can I go to the hospital to talk to you tomorrow?" Fu Chenyan scratched his hair vigorously again.

"Since Shu Xia is so insensible now and is even exposing you on the internet, why not take this opportunity to be with Lin Miao and strive to enter the Lin Family's company later? By then, you'll be the Lin Family's son-in-law in the company, and with your ability, maybe the Lin Family's company will be yours in the future." Fu Chenyan's mother began to indulge in wishful thinking.

In her eyes, no one was better than her son.

In Fu Chenyan's bloodshot eyes, a light suddenly appeared, "Mom, you've reminded me..."

——

Xinghai Villa.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Shu Xia returned to the villa.

The villa was brightly lit; it seemed Qiao Muting had returned a step earlier.

She was just about to go upstairs when she discovered Qiao Muting sitting on the sofa.

In his hand, he held tea that was still steaming.

The fragrance of some traditional Chinese medicinal herbs drifted over.
