After Fu Chen and Song Fengwan left the Jing residence and watched a movie, they received a call from Old Madam Fu and went home for dinner.

It was the weekend, and Yu Manxi had the weekend off, so she cooked dinner.

When Song Fengwan arrived at the old residence, Fu Sinian was playing Go with Old Master Fu, Old Madam Fu was stroking the cat happily, and Yu Manxi was busy in the kitchen.

Wanwan, youre here. Come and sit. Old Madam Fu had been addicted to petting the cat recently. Ever since this cat came to the old residence, it had never been on the ground. It was very precious.

Song Fengwan smiled and pa.s.sed the snacks she had brought over before glancing at the kitchen.

Although she and Yu Manxi werent sisters-in-law, they were both daughters-in-law of the Fu family. Since she was helping in the kitchen, it wasnt good for her to just sit around.

Ill go to the kitchen to take a look and help!

Wanwan! Fu Chen hurriedly stopped her. Even Fu Sinians fingers trembled, and the white Go piece in his hand fell onto the board, almost ruining the game.

What are you two doing? Wanwan is going to the kitchen to help. Is there a need for such a big reaction? Old Madam Fu stroked the cats fur.

Third Son, are you reluctant to let Wanwan cook?

No. Fu Chen coughed twice. She doesnt know how to cook.

How could he have the nerve to say directly that his wifes hands were dreadfully clumsy? The food she had cooked at Yu Manxis place was still fresh in his mind.

Im just going to take a look and help. I wont do anything. Song Fengwan also knew Fu Chens concerns and went straight to the kitchen.

Wanwan, why are you here? Yu Manxi couldnt help feeling alarmed when she saw her enter. Last time, she had fried something until it was stuck to the bottom of her pot. She had had to scrub it for a long time.

Im here to help.

Help me wash the vegetables. Yu Manxi didnt dare to let her help with things that required using a knife or a pot.

Okay. Song Fengwan just wanted to find something to do for herself.

Theres an ap.r.o.n over there. Dont get your clothes dirty.

Okay. Song Fengwan put on an ap.r.o.n and sized up Yu Manxi while was.h.i.+ng the vegetables.

Ever since she got married, she had always dressed very elegantly. When people had a happy event, they looked much better than before.

Big Sister Yu Song Fengwan had met the He family before. They had come to Yu Manxis condo to ask her to go home, but they had put on airs. When Yu Manxi had been kidnapped, rumors had spread everywhere, but the He family hadnt stepped forward to say a word. They had only gone to the hospital later as an afterthought.

It didnt matter if she returned to such a family.

She couldnt understand why Yu Manxi agreed to acknowledge her relatives.

Whats wrong?

Are you going back to the He family?

What? Yu Manxi was stunned and laughed involuntarily. Who did you hear that from?

Didnt you say it yourself? Song Fengwan was surprised.

Why does she look like she doesnt know?

Me? Yu Manxi had been busy with work at the station recently. It was almost December, and the station was holding the annual gala. They wanted her to present a program, and she was worried about this.

The renovations of their home were even more c.u.mbersome, and she still had to supervise the work.

At first, she had handed over the renovations to Fu Sinian. But a certain straight mans aesthetics were really hard to compliment, so she could only do it herself.

How could she have the time to care about the He familys matters?

Really? Song Fengwan looked at her seriously. But the He family has already sent out invitations and said that theyre holding a filiation banquet to bring you back.

Yu Manxi exclaimed in surprise, What?!

Third Brother and I were at the Jing residence in the afternoon. They sent the invitation over, and we saw it. If you didnt approve of it, how would they dare to do this?

Yu Manxi couldnt help laughing. She recalled the phone call yesterday. My father did look for me. I agreed to have a meal with him, but I wanted to make things clear, not acknowledge family.

If not for the crazy fan incident, she would have already cut ties with the He family long ago.

In that case, does the He family think that you agreed to have a meal because you want to go back? Song Fengwan didnt know what to say.

Doesnt this family feel too good about themselves?

Probably. I plan to cut ties with them completely. There are some things that cant be explained over the phone, so Yu Manxi hadnt expected the He family to think in that direction.

I think many people in the capital have already received the news. Its only a matter of time before the invitation is sent here. The He family has made this matter so big. It seems like theyve put in a lot of effort.

Song Fengwan shrugged. Have you really decided to cut ties with the He family completely, or are you still hesitating

It would have been fine if you two just met in private. But now that the matter has blown up, if you cut ties, theres no turning back. The He family

They would probably become the laughing stock of the entire capital.

Whats there to hesitate about? Ive already thought it through. He misunderstood himself and made such a big commotion. Hes probably putting pressure on me in disguise.

After all, the arrow was already on the bowstring. Everyone thought that Yu Manxi would acknowledge her roots and return to her family. Falling out with ones entire family in public, anyone would have to consider this matter carefully.

Theres this feeling. Song Fengwan nodded. They had already brought Yu Manxi onto the stage, which meant there was a hint of moral kidnapping.

In the eyes of others, they were still a family. If Yu Manxi was too extreme, people would probably criticize her for being too ruthless in the future.

Then, what do you plan to do now? Song Fengwan didnt expect Yu Manxi not to know about this at all.

I cant take their face into consideration and wrong myself. Yu Manxi lowered her head to cut the vegetables without a hint of hesitation. Theyre not worth it.

Song Fengwan knew what she was thinking and nodded.

Sometimes, indecisiveness led to trouble. The He family wasnt easy to deal with either. They were clingy and unclear, and they would cause endless trouble.

In that case, they could just wait for this familys face to swell completely.

Sure enough, when they were eating at the old Fu residence, Uncle Zhong received a call from the security guards at the entrance of the compound. They said that the He family were specially delivering an invitation card. Perhaps they were afraid that the Fu family wouldnt accept it, so they deliberately chose to deliver it during dinner.

Old Master? Uncle Zhong pointed at the door. Mr. He is outside.

Leave it to the security guards at the entrance. Whoever goes out later can just take it. Old Master Fu lowered his head and ate without being affected at all.

Wouldnt letting him in at this time affect his appet.i.te?

Furthermore

My granddaughter-in-laws craftsmans.h.i.+p is really good. No wonder this brat Sinian doesnt want to come home ever since he got into a relations.h.i.+p.

What invitation card did the He family send? Which of the two daughters of the He family is getting engaged? On Old Madam Fus right was her daughter-in-law, and on her left was her granddaughter-in-law, so she was happy all this while.

No, its about me Yu Manxi explained slightly.

Its fine as long as you have your own ideas and plans. We wont get involved. Although logically speaking, the two families were in-laws, they werent familiar with each other to begin with, so it wasnt good for them to partic.i.p.ate too much in this matter.

Okay. Yu Manxi nodded.

Ive asked Sinian to accompany you that day. If youre afraid, I can go with you, Old Master Fu said bluntly.

Thank you, Grandpa.

After Yu Manxi moved into the old Fu residence, she was still very reserved and nervous at first. After all, it wasnt her home. She usually didnt even dare to act cute with Fu Sinian, afraid that the two elders of the Fu family would think that she was finicky.

Unexpectedly, the two elders were very open-minded. They even went out for a walk at night and specially stayed outside for a while, giving them some alone time.

Their interactions now were naturally much more casual.

***

Song Fengwan and Fu Chen had dinner. Although Old Madam Fu asked her to stay, the two of them still returned to Yishui Community.

In Fu Chens words, Its not convenient to stay here.

Then he took a deep look at Fu Sinian.

In the warm car, Song Fengwan leaned against Fu Chens shoulder and was browsing the news. There was already a lot of news about Yu Manxis imminent return to her family, and she suddenly saw a Weibo post by Duan Linbai.

[The result of being tricked by my biological father and good friends.]

In the photo, Duan Linbai was standing in the middle of a stretch of broken tiles. Even though the cold wind was biting, he was still posing, and he had put together a picture on the floor. Even though he was wearing a thick down jacket, he was still handsome. The over-the-top comments below were even more indescribable.

[Heart Critical Hit. I can lick Big Brother Duans face for the rest of my life.]

[Whats the point of living without sleeping with Duan Linbai? Big Brother Duan, I want to have your children.]

[Im crazy for him, crazy for him, and banging my head against a wall for him.]

Song Fengwan happily scrolled through the comments and clicked on Duan Linbais international fan group chat. She usually ignored the group chat, so there were a lot of messages

Everyone was discussing who this good friend was, and they had basically locked onto Fu Chen.

[Third Master and Big Brother Duan have a love-hate relations.h.i.+p and grew up together. Is there anything more loving than this?]

[When will Big Brother Duan be able to counterattack? He cant be suppressed forever.]

[I support the counterattack. Hahaha]

Song Fengwan was cramping up with laughter.

What are these people thinking?

Fu Chen originally had his arms around her and was looking out of the window, so he didnt notice what news she was browsing. At this moment, he narrowed his eyes when he saw that the chat group had the words [Duan Linbais International Fan Group 8].

Song Fengwan.

Song Fengwan was really happy reading the comments. Hearing his voice, she raised her slightly to look up at him. The bright light from the street lights kept sliding past outside the car window. In her eyes, it was colorful. Whats wrong?

Are you a fan of Linbai?

This Song Fengwan had joined this group chat out of curiosity.

Moreover, the verification message was very strangeuse one word to describe Duan Linbai in your eyes.

Song Fengwan replied with unrestrained and actually pa.s.sed.

The management of this group was most likely his anti-fans. She could even pa.s.s with this word.

Youre infatuated with his looks behind my back? Am I not good-looking? Fu Chens voice was hoa.r.s.e and extremely displeased.

No. Song Fengwan felt very guilty.

Under a certain someones murderous gaze, she was about to cry.

When they were almost at Yishui Community, Song Fengwan received an unknown call. Because it was in the capital, she thought it was from a schoolmate. There were often people she didnt know who called her to ask for her help with something or other.

h.e.l.lo.

Song Fengwan?

Song Fengwan recognized the voice.

Miss He?

Why is this woman looking for me?

Its me. Our family is hosting a banquet in a few days, and I want to invite you to come. Im at the entrance of your school. Is it convenient for you to come? He s.h.i.+qing was here to send an invitation card and also to figure out Song Fengwan and Jing Hanchuans true relations.h.i.+p.

Sorry, its not convenient for me to go out. Please put the invitation card at the security post at the entrance. Ill get it later.

Is it too cold? I can send it to your dormitory.

You should leave it at the security post. Im outside with a friend. I still have something to do, so Ill hang up first. Song Fengwan hurriedly hung up.

She wondered why He s.h.i.+qing insisted on seeing her, but she didnt consider it further.

He s.h.i.+qing was furious now. She was sure that Song Fengwan was definitely not in her dormitory. It was winter, and she was still not going back so late? She was outside with a friend. She was probably her boyfriend.

The He familys filiation banquet was in full swing. The best hotel, the largest venue, and the hottest publicity, everyone could tell how much the He family valued Yu Manxi

But what awaited the He family might not be a resplendent event but a bottomless abyss.
