Chapter 403: Outrageous Family, Little Fish’s Love

After the He mother and daughter got into the car, they were still furious.
“Look at that girl’s att.i.tude. She even gave me conditions to bring her back.” Zou Li sneered. She lowered her head and rubbed her ankle. She had sprained it just now, and her ankle was still hurting slightly.
“Mom, calm down. Big Sister might still be a little resentful about what happened in the past. It’s normal for her to have a temper.”
“Didn’t you see the look in her eyes when she looked at me? She clearly wants to eat me. I thought she was going to rush over and hit me the next second.” Zou Li still remembered Yu Manxi’s gaze.
It was dark and cold but also hid a sharp edge.
“I think she might have said something to Fu Sinian. Look at his att.i.tude toward me. It’s frightening.”
He s.h.i.+qing bit her lip. “Mom… didn’t Grandpa… of Old Master Fu? Big Sister is with the Fu family. Why does Dad still want to bring her back?”
Although Old Master He had been angered to death by Old Master Fu, the older generation had fought openly and covertly all their lives.
But after Old Master He pa.s.sed away, the descendants of the He family were all astute people. Even if they had a grudge, they wouldn’t block their path of retreat and cut ties with any family. After all, there were no eternal enemies in this world.
Usually, when they met occasionally, they would greet each other politely. But there was a barrier between the two families, so they didn’t interact much.
The He family originally had three sons, but there was only one left. When it came to Yu Manxi’s generation, there were only girls, and they were far from being as prosperous as the Fu family.
“I heard that Fu Sinian’s father will be entering the leaders.h.i.+p cadre.”
He s.h.i.+qing pursed her lips and remained silent.
Indeed…
What matters the most is benefits.
“But she clearly doesn’t want to come back now. How are we supposed to tell Dad when we get back?”
“Why are we acknowledging her? It’s not like you don’t know your dad. Fu Sinian is the eldest grandson of the Fu family. This girl is really impressive.” Zou Li had been frightened a few times today, and she still had lingering fears. “And that girl in the kitchen kept holding a knife. She’s really scary.”
“She’s the granddaughter of the Qiao family.” He s.h.i.+qing had naturally done some investigation.
“The Qiao family?” Zou Li sneered. “Back then, your grandfather lost to the Fu family because of the Qiao family’s help. Otherwise, how could the Fu family get that position? Your grandfather was also angered to death because of this.”
“She’s impressive. She has a direct relations.h.i.+p with these two people. I…” Zou Li chuckled, not knowing what to say. “Why is the granddaughter of the Qiao family in the capital?”
“She goes to school here, and she just entered her first year of university. Now that her mother is married to the Yan family of Nanjiang, her value has risen greatly.”
“You should have more contact with her. Making friends with such a person will help you in the future.” Zou Li gritted her teeth. “I was wondering why that girl was so bold and out of line.”
He s.h.i.+qing smiled and didn’t say anything.
“Let’s not talk about the Qiao family for now. The Yan family is very prestigious in Nanjiang. Even if this girl isn’t the Yan family’s biological daughter, she won’t have a bad marriage in the future. It won’t do you any harm to befriend her.”
“I know.”
He s.h.i.+qing also wanted to befriend Song Fengwan, but she couldn’t be too deliberate about it. It would be fine if she was working, but she was still a student, so this kind of opportunity was really hard to find.
“Your dad is also too much. I could tell that this girl was wild and arrogant back then. How could she return so easily?” Zou Li was still complaining.
…
Inside the condo…
Under Yu Manxi’s guidance, Song Fengwan finally brought out the dark cuisine. When Fu Chen saw the appearance of the food, his scalp couldn’t help tingling.
“Third Brother, try it. Although it doesn’t look good, it tastes pretty good.” Song Fengwan looked expectant.
Fu Chen picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.
His desire to live told him that it was delicious. “The taste is pretty good.”
At the side, Fu Sinian was speechless. It seems like love doesn’t just make people’s eyes blind but also makes them blind to everything. Is it okay to praise someone forcefully?
“In that case, eat more.” Song Fengwan kept smiling at him.
So in the end, almost all the dark cuisine entered Fu Chen’s stomach.
Song Fengwan and Fu Chen left soon after eating.
The autumn wind was dry and slightly cold. The Software Garden was in the suburbs, so it was difficult to take a taxi after dark. The two of them held hands and took a rare walk before getting into the car.
The car drove from the suburbs into the city. The neon lights crisscrossed and flashed past the car windows, flickering on and off.
In the car, Song Fengwan asked about Yu Manxi’s family situation, and Fu Chen explained it briefly.
“They just came here now to bring her home? As her parents, they actually didn’t know that their daughter has been back in China for almost a year?”
Song Fengwan didn’t know how to describe her feelings. She had always thought that her father was bad enough, but she didn’t expect that there would be even worse people.
They didn’t even know that their daughter had returned to China. If something had happened to Yu Manxi outside, her family would probably be unaware of it too.
How can they still have the cheek to look for her?!
How shameless.
“They didn’t pay much attention to her in the first place. This time, it’s because Sinian and her matter blew up.”
“Didn’t you just say that your two families have a grudge? Will their family stop them from being together?”
Fu Chen chuckled softly. “How is that possible? The He Group wanted to work with me a few years ago. How can there be eternal enemies in this world?”
Song Fengwan nodded.
The car drove into Yishui Community, and the two of them got out of the car. They were almost at the entrance of the building, and they were reluctant to part with each other.

On the other side…
After Song Fengwan and Fu Chen left, Yu Manxi gathered her courage to explain her family situation to Fu Sinian. “Sinian, the two people who came today are actually my mother and my sister. I’m from the He family…”
“I know,” Fu Sinian answered quickly.
“You know?”
“I already know about you and the He family. Our family knows too.”
Yu Manxi had been worrying about this matter, but she didn’t expect Fu Sinian to know about it long ago.
“Do you know that your biological grandfather lost to my grandfather all his life and was even angered to death by him in the end?” Fu Sinian suddenly asked.
Yu Manxi was surprised. She had no impression of her so-called grandfather at all. When she returned to the He family, Old Master He had already pa.s.sed away, and no one had mentioned this to her.
“Then…” Yu Manxi was still in a daze. Then, the relations.h.i.+p between the He family and the Fu family…
“Will you break up with me because of this?” Fu Sinian looked at her seriously.
Yu Manxi’s tone was firm. “No.”
She had no feelings for the He family to begin with, let alone giving up Fu Sinian for them. She walked over and held his hand. “Thank you.”
This thank you contained a lot of feelings. She thanked him for helping her out of trouble, thanked him for knowing the truth…
… thanked him for never looking down on her.
There was warmth in the air. At this moment, Fu Sinian suddenly said, “Are you moving to my place? Or should I move to yours?”
“No, I…” Yu Manxi was a little dumbfounded. Why did he suddenly bring this topic up?
Living together?
Isn’t this development a little too fast?
But Fu Sinian didn’t give her any chance to reject him and said bluntly, “Then, I’ll move in. You seem to have a lot of stuff.”
