Chapter 177 I can't lie to myself anymore
Huang Chun called out to her, "Xiao Hua, what are you doing?"
"Shh, I saw Fu Huaiyi come back. I'll ask him about it in a bit."
"Oh, that's fine then. You should ask him what the Fu family's plans are. Since things have come to this, we should apologize and make amends."
After thinking about it for a few days, Huang Chun was indeed a little scared and decided to back down.
We can't afford to lose even the wealth we have now.
Pan Xiaohua pressed her face against the door and listened for a long time, but she didn't hear any sound of someone coming upstairs.
Because they didn't even come up.
On their way back, the two ran into Lu Jiangting.
Lu Jiangting cornered them downstairs, staring at them in disbelief.
Recalling the scene I just saw, the two of them walked together chatting and laughing, like a couple returning home.
Fu Huaiyi was always a stern and cold-hearted person, but the Fu Huaiyi he saw just now was not the same as the one he remembered.
It's like he's become a completely different person.
How is this possible?
"What...what are you doing?" Lu Jiangting looked at them, utterly shocked.
Finally, his gaze fell on Lin Yuyao. "Yuyao, don't tell me you've changed your mind."
Lin Yuyao didn't know what was wrong with Lu Jiangting, or why he was so trusting. She just felt that he had done so many excessive things, and that she was just being stubborn with him.
It's like he still has a chance.
We tried everything, from kind words to harsh ones, but he just wouldn't believe us.
"What do you mean by 'changed heart'? Didn't my parents and I go to your house to break off the engagement when you tricked me into giving my dowry to Fang Qing? It's been more than half a year since then. What? Even though we broke off the engagement, am I supposed to remain a widow for you?"
"You..." Why is she getting more and more rude?
"You're trying to make me angry, aren't you? You brought him here to make me angry, aren't you? We've been together for so many years, I don't believe you'd fall for someone else, I..."
Before he could speak, Lin Yuyao stood on tiptoe and kissed Fu Huaiyi on the cheek right in front of him.
Lu Jiangting swallowed his words back down.
He stared at them with wide eyes.
"Now you believe me?" Lin Yuyao looked at him with disgust.
“You, you…” Lu Jiangting trembled with anger, “You have no shame.”
Fu Huaiyi was originally immersed in a romantic atmosphere, but when he heard him cursing, he wanted to punch him.
However, Lin Yuyao grabbed his hand and intertwined her fingers with his.
Fu Huaiyi looked down at their clasped hands, his heart suddenly racing.
Even if... even if she was just using him to get rid of Lu Jiangting's entanglement, he was still extremely happy.
She doesn't take advantage of others, she only takes advantage of herself, which shows that she is no longer someone else in her heart.
"You and Fang Qing are the shameless ones. Humph, one of you is playing the victim to gain sympathy, and the other, who is engaged, is still entangled with my sister-in-law. That's shameless. Brother Fu and I are both unmarried, and we don't have any other romantic interests. We haven't deceived any innocent people, so how can that be called shameless?"
“Yuyao…” Lu Jiangting was eager to get closer to her.
Fu Huaiyi stepped forward and blocked his way.
Lu Jiangting stopped in his tracks, a sense of powerlessness rising within him.
He clenched his fists.
Honestly, he really wanted to fight Fu Huaiyi.
This shameless scoundrel! Everyone says you shouldn't covet your brother's wife, yet he took advantage of the situation.
Forget it, we can settle the score with him later. The main thing is Yuyao's attitude.
He looked at Lin Yuyao behind Fu Huaiyi and said, "You still mind Fang Qing, don't you? If you mind her, I won't see her anymore, okay?"
"Heh." Lin Yuyao laughed mockingly, too lazy to even say anything more.
With red eyes, Lu Jiangting hurriedly expressed his loyalty to her, "I don't care if people gossip about me or curse me, I don't care about anything anymore. I'll live a good life with you from now on. Money... all the money is yours. I remember you said that love is where money is. Whether that makes sense or not, I'll listen to you. Every penny I earn from now on is yours. I... I won't spend any of my own money. It's all yours, okay?"
He reached out his hand to her and said, "Come here. Our relationship of so many years can't be severed so easily. You still have feelings for me, don't you?"
"No, how many times do I have to say it before you believe me? Am I some kind of despicable person? After all this, would I still be with you? Don't I have any shame?"
He didn't care about saving face at all.
Faced with such a strong opponent as Fu Huaiyi, he felt inferior and had no confidence at all that he could beat him.
He could only look at Lin Yuyao pleadingly and say, "Yuyao, I was wrong. Let's talk this out. Come here, come here..."
Lin Yuyao didn't come over; she just clung tightly to Fu Huaiyi's arm.
"Let's go, he can't understand human language, I'm too lazy to argue with him."
She spoke very softly to Fu Huaiyi, but Lu Jiangting heard her too.
Lu Jiangting was filled with fear.
It turns out that Yuyao wasn't really angry; her eyes and words couldn't hide her disgust for herself.
How could she be so heartless and cruel...?
Fu Huaiyi nodded, pulled her into his arms, and pushed Lu Jiangting away with his other hand, saying, "The last bus is here. If you miss it, you'll have to spend the night at Fang Qing's house again."
Lu Jiangting was shaken, all his anger turning into powerlessness.
As Lin Yuyao passed by him, her eyes were full of mockery.
How can there be such a despicable person?
On one hand, she wanted to salvage her own image and kept expressing her loyalty to herself.
Meanwhile, he continued to entangle himself with Fang Qing and her son.
If she guessed correctly, he must have just come from Fang Qing's house and was catching the last bus back to his barracks.
Once inside the building, Lin Yuyao let go of her hand, but she couldn't remove it.
Lin Yuyao looked up at Fu Huaiyi.
Fu Huaiyi pretended not to know. Anyway, it was her own initiative, and once she was in his hands, she couldn't escape. He wouldn't let go.
"Brother Fu."
Fu Huaiyi frowned. This form of address was inappropriate; it sounded too distant and overly polite.
"I'll let you go if you change how I address you."
This……
"What to change?"
"You said."
"Fu Huaiyi?"
Fu Huaiyi: "..."
"Get closer."
"Well, that can only be done after we get married."
marry?
She finally considered getting married.
This is definitely a tacit agreement to date him.
He could almost guess what they would call each other after marriage, and just thinking about it made his palms sweat.
Fine, I'll just have to bear with it a little longer.
"Okay, let's talk about it later."
"Then let go."
"Don't loosen it, go upstairs and upstairs again."
The stairs are narrow and difficult to walk on.
Ugh!
I went upstairs in such an awkward way.
When they reached the fourth floor, the door opposite Fu Huaiyi's apartment suddenly opened, and they saw Pan Xiaohua standing in the doorway looking at them.
“You…” She looked embarrassed as she looked at their clasped hands.
Lin Yuyao panicked and shook it a few times forcefully.
"Let go," she warned in a low voice.
Fu Huaiyi then let go, his expression frighteningly ugly.
He stared coldly at Pan Xiaohua, "You'd better have something to say."
The ugly look in her eyes almost made Pan Xiaohua forget her business. Her mother and second brother were still locked up, and she still had to say what needed to be said.
"How is your second sister-in-law?"
