After Song Fengwan separated from Qiao Xiyan, she immediately called Fu Chen.

Im in the Hongzhi bookstore beside your school.

Okay, Ill be there in about five minutes. Song Fengwan wrapped her jacket tightly around herself and ran toward the bookstore.

At this moment, Fu Chen was standing in front of a bookshelf inside the bookstore. He was casually holding a foreign language book with a serious expression.

He had just left the old residence half an hour ago

There were only a few days left until Old Master Fus birthday, so there were many people visiting in advance.

Although they would all attend the birthday banquet, there would be many people on that day, so everyone was worried that their intentions wouldnt be accurately conveyed to the Fu family. Many people came early to make their presence known.

Today, apart from the two elders of the Fu family, only Fu Chen was around. The others were either busy or had gone out.

Many people came tonight, so Fu Chen couldnt leave early even if he wanted to.

At first, the topics were all very normal and just casual conversations. As they talked, the topic of this group of people changed.

The matter with the Qiao family has been quite lively recently.

Old Master Qiao and Old Master Fu are old friends. How could his younger generation have bad characters? I already knew that those things online were all nonsense.

Fu Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

Whats the point of saying such things now?

When the Qiao family were scolded like dogs, no one dared to stand up for them.

After all, Yu Manxi represented a station, so it was not convenient for her to say anything publicly. When she was hosting the show, she had only worn a bracelet from the Jade Hall of Spring, but she had almost been scolded to death.

Now, those netizens said that Yu Manxi had good insight and was very wise. They praised her so thoroughly that it was as if they werent the ones who scolded her at the time.

Old Master Qiao is quite lucky. His children and grandchildren, including his granddaughter, are all good. I heard that his daughter is pregnant again after marrying the Yan family. Its really gratifying.

Old Madam Yan must be overjoyed.

Thats right. Although this granddaughter isnt biological, she looks good and has a good relations.h.i.+p with Mr. Yan.

Fu Chen picked up the kettle at the side and poured tea for Old Madam Fu and some relatives and elders who came today.

Third Master, you are too polite. These people were all juniors of Old Master Fu. Although many of them were in their fifties, they were of the same generation as Fu Chen.

Its fine. Let him pour. It was rare for Old Madam Fu to chat with so many people, so she was happy.

I heard that Old Master Qiaos granddaughter lived in your house before?

In that case, you two must have a good relations.h.i.+p and should have interacted a lot.

As they spoke, the topic s.h.i.+fted to Song Fengwan. These people wisely didnt mention Song Fengwan and Fu Yuxius previous engagement.

Old Madam Fu smiled. Yes, he has a good relations.h.i.+p with Wanwan.

Does Song Fengwan have a boyfriend? I heard that shes only a first-year university student and doesnt have a boyfriend yet.

She definitely doesnt have a boyfriend. How old is she? She just enrolled, right?

This girl is pretty and educated.

Fu Chen gripped his teacup tightly and leaned against the sofa. Because he exerted too much force, his knuckles turned white.

Educated? She slapped someone directly in front of the cameras. These people sure know how to praise others.

Fu Wan leaned toward him and murmured softly, Third Brother, do you see? These people stayed behind basically for that little girl.

After chatting for so long, they finally got to the topic.

About the plagiarism last time, the girls performance was too outstanding. It was a live broadcast. Although shes a little intense, who doesnt want a daughter-in-law like her? Marrying her can even build connections to the Qiao family and the Yan family.

The one on the right Fu Wan lowered his voice as the siblings whispered.

What? Fu Chen narrowed his eyes.

His son is only fifteen and just started high school this year. He even asked me if Im familiar with Wanwan. How anxious is he?

Fu Chen snorted lightly.

Say, is Yuxiu stupid? He didnt want such a good girl. What a stupid brain.

Hes stupid, Fu Chen said firmly.

Just wait and see at the birthday banquet in a few days. This girl will definitely be in high demand. Who knows how many will be fighting for her. Shes good at studying, shes very gentle when she should be gentle, and she wont be at a disadvantage when shes tough.

She will definitely be able to give her husband enough face when she goes out in the future, and shell naturally protect her family.

These people stayed until now because they wanted to get to know her through our family. Fu Wan was speechless.

I even asked your nephew before if he was interested in her.

Fu Chen clutched his cup tightly. You asked Shen Jinye?

I just asked casually. Song Fengwan almost became Yuxius wife. If she entered our family, how awkward would it be in the future

Besides, after I asked this, this kid looked like he had seen a ghost.

I was just joking. But this kid was so scared that he dropped his chopsticks. Was there a need for that? If he doesnt like her, so be it. His reaction was so strong that it was scary. He even stuttered when talking. How ridiculous.

Fu Wan was overjoyed when mentioning her sons embarra.s.sing incident.

Fu Chen lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

Shen Jinye knows about me and Wanwan. If he really dared to reach out

I would have killed this kid.

After finally sending these people off, Fu Wan tidied up the coffee table. Old Madam Fu leaned against the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief. Theyre finally gone.

Since you dont want to introduce her, why bother with these people? Old Master Fu held her hand and helped her ma.s.sage her wrist.

Theyre all here to celebrate your birthday, and they came with gifts. We cant possibly be cold to them, right? Old Madam Fu smiled.

Some of these people came here for me, and the others came for Wanwan. How many waves has it been since the plagiarism incident? Old Master Fu chuckled. Yuxiu is such a stupid thing.

Dad, have many people come to ask about Wanwan recently? Fu Wan hadnt been staying at home every day, so she naturally wasnt clear about some things.

Too many to count. Some of these children are only twelve or thirteen years old, yet their parents still came to ask about Wanwan. There are also unmarried men in their thirties or forties that came to inquire. Theyre treating our family as a marriage agency. Old Master Fu sneered.

Bang!

Fu Chen suddenly threw his cup on the coffee table.

Third Brother, what are you doing?! Fu Wan frowned. Why did you suddenly

I just remembered that I have something to do, so Ill go back first.

Without waiting for the two elders of the Fu family to speak, he picked up his coat and walked out with a cold expression.

This brat, why did he suddenly flare up? Fu Wan frowned.

s.h.i.+ Fang bade farewell to the people in the living room and hurriedly chased after him.

Its not that Third Master flared up. Those people sat here for more than two hours, and most of the time, they were asking about Miss Song. A large group of people was gossiping about his own wife in front of him.

They even said that they wanted to introduce people to his wife. How could Third Master take it?

It was already not easy for him to sit here for so long.

When Old Madam Fu heard the sound of the car outside gradually fading away, she shook her head helplessly. Old Fu, look at Third Sons bad temper. Hes exactly the same as you when you were young. Hes inexplicable.

How does he like me? Old Master Fu was dumbfounded. He had been shot for no reason. Im famous for my good temper.

Old Madam Fu chuckled.

If you had a good temper, how could you anger someone to death?

Say, do you think hes angry because we were discussing Wanwan? Fu Wan still knew her younger brother best.

Why is he angry about Wanwans matter? Old Madam Fu harrumphed coldly.

Third Brother isnt young anymore. Seeing a young lady around eighteen years old start talking about marriage, he probably feels uncomfortable, Fu Wan said, not thinking in that direction. After all, Third Brother has been single for so many years.

This single old man lives outside alone. He has a weird temperament and a bad temper. Which young lady could stand it? She kept mercilessly stabbing Third Master in the back.

Let me tell you. There are only a few days left until the date of my agreement with him. This brat most likely doesnt have a partner to bring back, so hes anxious now.

Hes embarra.s.sed and pulling a long face at us now. Old Madam Fu harrumphed coldly.

Sitting at the side, Old Master Fu cleared his throat.

How can someone disdain her son like this?

When Song Fengwan arrived at Hongzhi Bookstore, his car was parked not far away. The car was still on, so s.h.i.+ Fang was likely inside. She pushed the door open and entered the bookstore.

This was the largest bookshop outside Beijing University. There was even a private reading area and a coffee shop inside, looking pretty stylish.

At this hour, there were not many people in the bookstore, and almost all of them were couples. After all, it was free to sit here, and the atmosphere was good, so it was a very suitable spot for dates.

Song Fengwan walked past the bookshelves one by one and finally saw Fu Chen. Because the surroundings were too quiet, she tiptoed forward and prepared to scare him.

Just as she finally got close, and her fingers just touched his back

The next second

Fu Chen pressed her against the bookshelf
