Chapter 7

He just wanted to come see how she was doing; if she wasn't doing well, he would take her away.

If she was doing well, he all the more needed to take her away.

He was ageless, yet not invincible.

She had already undergone phoenix nirvana, reborn…

In that case, the family matters should be told to her.

"When is your lady coming back?" Mo Zhi said lightly.

Yu Ma refilled his tea and said, "Sir took the lady out to play; when they left, they said not to make dinner for them."

Mo Zhi leaned back, tapping the arm of the grand master's chair, his gaze languid, his posture equally languid yet with a hint of dominance, not allowing refusal, "Then tell me about your lady."

Yu Ma clasped her hands together and slowly said, "I remember when the lady first arrived at the Fu family, she wasn't that outstanding; the master had adopted four children, and the lady was the thinnest among them. She didn't like buns, didn't like porridge, didn't like spicy food, liked tea. I said, what tea could such a young child drink? She said, tea enters the mouth slightly bitter, but the aftertaste is sweet."

"Does she like tea?" Mo Zhi glanced at the water dragon bone, raised an eyebrow and smiled; it seemed Fu Qiwei couldn't keep Ruanruan.

"Mm, and the lady likes cute, fluffy, soft things." Yu Ma also didn't know why he was asking so many things, "Lady, she doesn't like being lied to; she's a woman who likes to pretend, many people scatter at a breeze, but the lady and the master aren't like that."

Mo Zhi laughed, sighed, stood up, patted his clothes, took out a letter from his bosom, and said, "Tell your lady, Mo Zhi has come to take her home."

Mo Zhi thought he could go home with his sister, but unexpectedly, from bringing her home to waiting for her to return home, it ended up being him returning home in her place……

Hook kiss

Along the way, she saw many people looking over at them; Yi Ruan couldn't help but shrink into Fu Qiwei's embrace.

No way, although the female lead in novels usually looks decent, it's not that exaggerated.

Have you never seen a beauty?

She couldn't help but ask, "Qiwei, am I really that beautiful?"

"Yes, our lady is the most beautiful."

Hearing his refined address, Yi Ruan's ears turned red.

Open the door

Wei Jiangyu, upon seeing Fu Qiwei bring this secretary over, was full of disdain, immediately his tone turned bad, he glared at her angrily, "How did you bring her here?"

Fu Qiwei gave no answer.

Yi Ruan looked around; the private room wasn't big, just a place for drinking and singing, with a mahjong table and a washroom.

Inside sat five people, several chatting heatedly; the only one she knew was Wei Jiangyu.

"Yo yo yo, Fu Qiwei, you finally came, and you brought a beauty."

"You called us to come, yet you arrived last."

In the novel, Fu Qiwei has several sworn brothers: Wei Jiangyu, Hu Zongting, Shen Guanming, and Wei Nanxing.

Wei Nanxing, seeing such a beautiful woman for the first time, couldn't help but glance at her repeatedly.

The woman wore a liquid-feel dark green shirt that made her skin look unusually fair and tender; the clothing had a textured, soft feel, sleeves like lantern sleeves reaching her elbows, white trousers that visually elongated her proportions, and three metallic buttons that made her waist look slimmer.

She had her hair tied in a slightly curled ponytail, a huge diamond ring on the middle finger of her left hand, and she instantly raised her eyebrows in surprise.

【Hint: Your woman is Wei Nanxing, capturable.】

She lifted her head and looked over; in those watery, seemingly speaking eyes, tenderness flickered.

Wei Nanxing felt somewhat overwhelmed by favor; she felt this woman was formidable and also gentle.

She didn't understand why her brother's attitude toward her was so bad.

"What's going on, Fu Qiwei? This isn't loyal; we're all family, what's the point of bringing an outsider?" Wei Jiangyu had his feet up on the tea table.

Hu Zongting looked at Yi Ruan, feeling she was very familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before; but someone as good-looking as her, he would definitely remember.

Fu Qiwei looked at the people, took Yi Ruan's hand and stood up, his face full of delight, his eyes smiling, his voice clear, cold, and steady as he said, "Let me introduce you, this is Yi Ruan, my wife."

Several people looked at her in surprise, and she, a little embarrassed, leaned toward Fu Qiwei.

He introduced them to her one by one.

"Shen Guanming, Xia Cao, they are a married couple."

The man wearing a white T-shirt, black work pants, and a buzz cut is called Shen Guanming; the woman beside him, wearing a black lantern-sleeve midriff-baring outfit, black work pants, and dyed golden hair, is his wife, Xia Cao.

Xia Cao also wore a diamond ring, though on her left ring finger, and she waved at her, saying, "Hey there, Madam Fu."

She returned the gesture.

Huo Zongting wore a white cotton shirt and black casual pants, very simple; Wei Nanxing was similar, in a white T-shirt and black shorts, his long beautiful legs in white dad shoes, wearing a silver-white necklace that looked valuable.

"Huo Zongting, Wei Nanxing." He thought of something, turned his head and said to her, "These are the two people you said have better talent than Wei Jiangyu and are more diligent than him."

Then the two sat down, and Xia Cao was the first to ask, raising her hand, smiling at Yi Ruan with a gossipy expression.

"When did you two meet!"

"I haven't been introduced yet!"

The two spoke in unison, and Wei Jiangyu glared angrily at Fu Qiwei.

"One by one." Fu Qiwei first answered Wei Jiangyu, "That day I asked you to come to the company to tell you I wanted to propose to Ruanruan, and you gave her a cold look as soon as you walked in."

She nodded in agreement, and Wei Jiangyu's nose twisted with anger—clearly he should have been the first to know!

"Ah, I still haven't answered my wife." Shen Guanming leaned against Xia Cao, who pushed him away in disgust, "Tch, leaning on me is making me hot."

Shen Guanming pulled at her sleeve with a full face of grievance.

Yi Ruan glanced at him, Fu Qiwei leaning against her, looking lazy, deliberately doing it for Shen Guanming to see, seemingly not preparing to answer, "Hmm, I was adopted by Qiwei."

Xia Cao gave an understanding look, "Oh, so you're a childhood bride." She then slapped Shen Guanming's hand away.

"Wife, it hurts."

She gave him a white-eye.

Wei Jiangyu immediately raised his hand, "Then why have I never seen you before?"

Everyone was puzzled, and Yi Ruan was puzzled too.

Fu Qiwei leaned on her shoulder, smelling her faint body scent and tea fragrance, and said softly, "Because I have never brought you all to our home."

Huo Zongting took a sip of water, then said indifferently, "Don't say it; saying more just means we're not worthy to go to their little home."

"Me me me! Question!" Wei Nanxing said excitedly.

She looked at Wei Nanxing curiously, Wei Nanxing's face full of unhappiness, "Why didn't the proposal call us?"
