Yang Yuxin lowered her head and muttered to herself, missing the fleeting glint in Chu Xiyao’s eyes.
"Cousin, did you just say Grandpa Fu doesn’t like her either?"
Chu Xiyao nodded, her face showing no signs of change. "Yes! Because of this, Grandpa argued with Qi Yuan many times, but he still..."
Upon hearing this, Yang Yuxin raised her head and glanced at Su Ran, her eyes full of disgust and disdain.
"Vixen, only knows how to seduce men!"
Chu Xiyao looked at Yang Yuxin, her tone filled with concern.
"Yuxin, I know what happened tonight made you feel wronged, but you absolutely must not trouble her. After all, she is Qi Yuan’s fiancée in name."
Yang Yuxin’s face showed some sarcasm, "Fiancée? She doesn’t deserve it!"
"Cousin, tell me, if everyone knew she was a malicious, unscrupulous woman, could she still hold onto the title of Eldest Young Master Fu’s fiancée?"
Chu Xiyao’s eyes widened, "You... What do you intend to do?"
Yang Yuxin merely smiled, turned and looked at the woman by the pool, a calculating curve forming at the corner of her lips.
A moment later, she turned to Chu Xiyao again and said:
"It’s not what I want to do; it’s what she wants to do to me. Just watch, cousin!"
After saying this, she turned and walked away!
"Hey, Yuxin, Yuxin, what are you doing? Don’t do anything foolish..."
Chu Xiyao naturally couldn’t catch up to Yang Yuxin. She watched Yang Yuxin’s distant back, and the worried look on her face instantly vanished without a trace, replaced by a sarcastic curve at the corner of her lips.
She turned her head back and continued looking at the two people not far away, a chilling wind in her eyes.
By the pool, Qi Yuan’s warm thumb gently caressed the girl’s lips, swollen from his kiss, covered with a gleaming layer of moisture, making them appear even more lush and red.
His deep eyes narrowed slightly, darkening once again.
Su Ran had just been exuding a shrewd and forceful aura, but now she appeared completely soft and submissive.
She lifted her head, with a bright look on her face.
Upon hearing this, Su Ran’s face instantly fell, "Why are you so hard to please? I even used my ultimate move and you’re still angry."
Qi Yuan raised an eyebrow, "Ultimate move?"
"Mm, calling you ’husband’!"
Qi Yuan was instantly amused to the point of tears.
He lowered his head slightly, "Call me one more time, and I won’t be angry."
"Really?" Su Ran was skeptical.
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Su Ran looked at him, "I suspect you’re lying to me now."
Qi Yuan curved his lips, "So, will you call or not?"
Having already called him once, it wasn’t difficult for Su Ran anymore.
Just as the words left her lips, the man sealed them with a kiss.
Su Ran wasn’t the type to be coy; soon enough, she wrapped her hands around his shoulders, responding to the kiss.
Their passionate kiss continued, and just then, Fu Qixiu appeared out of nowhere.
Watching the two people entangled in their kiss, he awkwardly cleared his throat, yet the two didn’t notice him.
The two people who were kissing passionately weren’t embarrassed at all; it was him who felt awkward first.
Then, as if in defiance, he stood in front of them and watched earnestly.
Only later did he realize they truly couldn’t see him, and he weakly spoke up, clutching his chest.
"Brother, you and sister-in-law need to be mindful of the occasion. There’s still a dog here..."
A single dog at that!
When the two heard his voice, they froze. Qi Yuan pulled Su Ran into his arms and glanced coldly at Fu Qixiu.
That look clearly intended to teach him a lesson!
Fu Qixiu pursed his lips with a deep sense of grievance.
"I’ve been here for a long time; it’s you and sister-in-law who didn’t notice."
So how can this be my fault?
Qi Yuan narrowed his dangerous eyes, "You have something to say?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Qixiu straightened up considerably, "Yes, I do."
It was the first time Su Ran heard Fu Qixiu speak so seriously, causing her to lift her head in curiosity.
"Speak," Qi Yuan said succinctly.
"The Chu family’s people are looking for you; there’s a business issue."
Qi Yuan frowned, "Now?"
Fu Qixiu nodded, his face also looking somewhat grim. "Yes."
Su Ran quickly retreated from his arms and looked up at him.
"You should go deal with it; work is important."
Qi Yuan gazed at her, remaining silent.
Su Ran sighed lightly, reached out to adjust his clothes, and gently said:
"Hurry back, I’ll be waiting for you to go home together."
Qi Yuan’s brow arched slightly, and he patted her head.
"Wait for me obediently."
With that, he turned and Fu Qixiu hurriedly followed.
However, just as they took a step, the figure in front suddenly stopped.
Fu Qixiu looked puzzled. "What is it, brother?"
Qi Yuan turned to Fu Qixiu, and said lightly, "You stay, accompany your sister-in-law."
Upon hearing this, Fu Qixiu was shocked, clutching the nearby pillar with a face full of refusal.
Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes, "Hmm?"
Fu Qixiu clung to the pillar while shaking his head, "I don’t want to, don’t want to, just don’t want to!"
The rejected Su Ran: "..."
She raised her hand weakly, "May I ask why?"
Fu Qixiu turned to look at her, his face full of accusation.
"You still have the nerve to ask? You’re so wild that besides my brother, no one can handle you! Every time, it’s me who gets warned by my brother to keep an eye on you. Yet, if I mess up, not only do I get no reward, I might lose my life. What’s the point?"
"I’d rather deal with troublesome people than be with you. Don’t try to trick me into losing my life this way!"
Su Ran’s lips twitched, "...You’re overthinking it!!"
If he didn’t overthink it, he’d have lost his life by now!
Qi Yuan looked at the two in front of him, rubbing his temples in slight frustration.
Neither of them provided any peace!
He looked at his younger brother clinging to the pillar and said sternly:
Fu Qixiu held on tighter, "I won’t."
Qi Yuan said nothing more, cracking his fingers, preparing to step forward. But in the next moment, a shadow darted in front of him.
He looked at his younger brother gently and said, "Be good, stay with your sister-in-law!"
Fu Qixiu nodded rapidly, "Okay! Brother, don’t worry, I’ll stay with sister-in-law."
After calming his brother, Qi Yuan turned to the girl beside him and reminded:
Do these two brothers have some misunderstanding about her?
When had she ever been wild?
She was clearly very obedient!
Thinking this, she still nodded obediently, looking extremely sensible and said:
"I won’t be wild, I won’t be wild, definitely won’t!"
He didn’t believe even a punctuation mark of what she said.
Qi Yuan sighed lightly, patted her head, and turned to leave!
