Chapter 211: Domineering Uncle

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It had snowed a few days ago, and the accumulated snow had already melted. The cold wind was bone-chilling.

When Fu Chen saw the message, the tip of his brush paused, and a blot of ink dripped onto the golden-gilded Xuan paper. He put down his brush and casually pulled the Xuan paper off the table. His movements weren’t quiet.

“Third Uncle?” Huai Sheng, holding a pencil, looked at him suspiciously. “Who made you angry?” His expression got cold all of the sudden. It’s scary.

“Nothing.” Fu Chen crushed the Xuan paper bit by bit in his palm.

The alliance is canceled?

So that means that he and Aunt Yun have gotten together, and now he’s kicking me away?

I’ve never seen a person kick someone to the curb when they’ve outlived their usefulness so quickly.

Yan Wangchuan, you‘re really great.

Right after that, he received another message.

[As a businessman, I’m honest and trustworthy. Unless you expose yourself, I won’t tell anyone about you, but I won’t help you either. You’re on your own.]

Fu Chen sneered and threw the crumpled Xuan paper into the trash can.

I’m on my own?

We’ll see.

After thinking about it, Fu Chen still decided to give him a call.

But when he dialed Yan Wangchuan’s number, all he heard was: [The number you have dialed is currently unavailable…]

Huai Sheng lowered his head and continued practicing writing. Third Uncle is so scary right now. I can’t provoke him.

Not long after…

There was a knock on the door. “Third Brother, can I come in?” It was Sun Qionghua’s voice.

“Okay.” When Fu Chen looked up again, he seemed to be the gentle and elegant Third Master Fu again.

Sun Qionghua pushed the door open and entered. “Yuxiu and I will be going overseas tomorrow. I want to treat the Qiao family to a meal tonight, and I hope you will go with us as well to mediate in case things get too awkward. If this matter isn’t handled well, I won’t be able to go overseas in peace.”

Fu Chen nodded. “Sure.” I just happen to have something to talk to Aunt Yun about.

At this moment, Yan Wangchuan was sitting on the plane and casually flipping through a magazine. He was in a good mood, and even his usual cold and stiff lips were gentler. Old Madam Yan kept grinning from ear to ear, thinking about the marriage or bringing the mother and daughter back to Nanjiang to celebrate Lunar New Year.

Yan Wangchuan was still thinking that he had to hurry back to Yuncheng after getting his residence booklet.

He’d only feel at ease once he married her.

Little did he know that Fu Chen was considering stabbing him in the back.

Meanwhile, at the Qiao residence…

When the three of them arrived home, Qiao Wangbei asked, “Aiyun, are you and Senior Brother together now?”

Although Qiao Aiyun wasn’t a young lady anymore and that reserved about relationships, she was still a woman after all. She wasn’t willing to discuss such matters with her elder brother, so she merely smiled and remained silent.

“Why are you just smiling? Have you two confirmed your relationship?” Qiao Wangbei was a domineering person, and he wouldn’t stop until he got an answer.

Qiao Aiyun could only nod. “I guess so.”

“What do you mean ‘I guess so’? You two kissed inside the lounge, and both your mouths were swollen. How is it only ‘I guess so’?” Qiao Wangbei raised his eyebrows. “If this doesn’t mean that you’ve confirmed your relationship, then what will?”

Song Fengwan laughed out loud, making Qiao Aiyun feel extremely embarrassed.

She hated Yan Wangchuan from the bottom of her heart. He had kissed her so hard that he had bit her lips. She was too ashamed to face anyone.

“Big Brother, do you really want to make things so obvious?”

Qiao Wangbei snorted. “I’m a rough person. If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t beat around the bush. If you just keep smiling at me, how would I know?”

“Exactly,” Song Fengwan echoed.

“Song Fengwan, you’re still smiling? I haven’t settled the score with you yet!” Qiao Aiyun harrumphed coldly. “You’re really bold. You’ve even learned to tease me, and you even helped your Uncle Yan hide the secret from me. You’re very capable now, aren’t you?”

“It’s not my fault. It’s not like you don’t know Uncle Yan’s temperament. He threatened me, and I was too afraid, so I didn’t dare to say it.” Song Fengwan thought of how Yan Wangchuan had threatened her twice that night and kept wanting to get some interest back from him.

“Threatened?” Qiao Aiyun raised her eyebrows.

“You don’t say. He’s really capable of doing it. Back then, when I found out about his feelings for you, he also threatened me and blocked me in my room. If I didn’t agree to keep it a secret, I might have been beaten to death by him,” Qiao Wangbei said.

“Yeah, Uncle Yan’s face was so scary. How would I dare to say it? He was leaving this time, so I purposely messed with him…” Song Fengwan muttered softly.

Qiao Aiyun nodded while listening to them. I really didn’t expect that Yan Wangchuan would do such a thing.

Threatening a child?

That’s simply childish and ridiculous.

“Then, I’ll go upstairs first.” Song Fengwan was afraid that she would expose herself if her mother continued probing further.

“Oh right, we’ll be having dinner with the Fu family tonight. Wanwan, take note of the time and get ready by then,” Qiao Aiyun informed.

“Fu Yuxiu?” Song Fengwan was speechless. “I don’t want to go.”

“I don’t want to go either. But Fu Yuxiu’s family is going overseas, and they’re insisting on treating us to dinner and apologizing properly to you. Fu Chen is going this time as well. He’s been taking care of you all this time, and the matter this time is all thanks to him too. Otherwise, you…” Qiao Aiyun was furious at the thought of Song Jingren.

“We should thank Fu Chen properly too.

“Since he’s coming for this meal, we have to go for his sake.”

After hearing that Fu Chen would be going as well, Song Fengwan still pretended to be troubled and pondered for a moment. “Alright, I’ll go.”

Evening, a Yuncheng restaurant…

When three Qiao family members arrived at the private room, the Fu family members were already here. Sun Qionghua hurriedly invited them to sit down.

“Hello, Auntie. Hello, Third Master,” Song Fengwan greeted obediently.

“Come and sit.” Sun Qionghua welcomed them warmly. “It just snowed, and it’s cold outside.”

“Hello, Uncle and Auntie.” In addition to Fu Yuxiu, another woman stood up and greeted Qiao Aiyun and Qiao Wangbei. “Wanwan, long time no see. Do you still remember me?”

Song Fengwan saw her the moment she entered the room.

Fu Yuxiu’s elder cousin—

Sun Rui.

From her name, people could tell how much her parents doted on her.

“Hello, Big Sister.” Song Fengwan smiled. When she got engaged to Fu Yuxiu, Old Madam Fu was in poor health at the time, so they hadn’t held a grand ceremony. Instead, they had only invited their close family and friends, so Sun Qionghua’s family had naturally come as well.

But this Miss Sun didn’t take her seriously at all. At the time, she had added Song Fengwan’s number, but she had never once contacted her.

There was also no friendship between them.

“We haven’t seen each other in a long time, right? You seem to have lost weight. Even if you’re in your senior year of high school, don’t study too hard. You have to take care of your health.” Sun Rui held Song Fengwan’s hands as if they were very familiar with each other.

But there were many people around, so Song Fengwan didn’t embarrass her in front of them.

Sun Rui wasn’t particularly good-looking, but she had a very good bearing and aura. Her makeup was exquisite, and she had paid a lot of attention to her outfit.

“Sit with me.”

“Auntie, I want to sit with Big Sister,” Huai Sheng suddenly said.

Sun Rui’s eyebrows twitched. Auntie?

From the moment the little monk saw her, he kept calling her auntie. He also called Sun Qionghua auntie. Am I that old?!

“Big Sister, come sit here!” Huai Sheng pulled Song Fengwan to sit on the other side, which happened to be directly opposite Fu Chen.

Fu Chen was young, but he was high in terms of seniority. Sun Qionghua was counting on him to mediate during the dinner today, so he naturally had to sit between the two families, separated from juniors.

“Uncle Qiao, Aunt Qiao, please take a seat.” Fu Yuxiu braced himself and went to greet the Qiao family members.

Qiao Wangbei snorted coldly and sat down straight away.

Fu Yuxiu poured the tea for them. “Uncle Qiao, please have some tea.”

“I have something that I’ve been wanting to ask you. I’ve been busy recently and haven’t been able to see you. Today is just right…” Qiao Wangbei held his teacup and took a sip of the hot tea.

“Please go ahead.” Fu Yuxiu was uneasy. He knew very well that this dinner would definitely not be that simple and that the Qiao family would definitely find trouble with him.

“What was the emergency you had that day you left both Wanwan and Huai Sheng halfway?”

The Qiao family only knew that Fu Yuxiu did it because of Jiang Fengya, but they didn’t know the whole situation. Qiao Wangbei had been suppressing this matter in his heart for a long time.

“That day…” Fu Yuxiu thought of many excuses, but Qiao Wangbei’s eyes were so sharp that Fu Yuxiu was so scared, he was rendered speechless for a moment.

“I heard that you abandoned Wanwan in the cold because of that illegitimate daughter of Song Jingren. Fu Yuxiu, how dare you!”

Qiao Wangbei slammed the teacup on the table, and the tea inside it splashed out. The entire private room instantly became silent.

“If you didn’t want to send her that day, you should’ve just said it. Why did you leave her halfway?

“You clearly know that we don’t get along with that girl, yet you still deliberately chose that time to meet her and abandoned our Wanwan. Are you purposely embarrassing our Qiao family?!

“You’re trying to make me lose face, aren’t you?!”

Fu Yuxiu’s heart was pounding wildly. “Uncle, there was an emergency that day. I really didn’t do it on purpose.”

“So tell me, what was the emergency?” Qiao Wangbei looked at him coldly. “If you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation, I don’t think there’s a reason for us to eat this meal.”

Fu Yuxiu didn’t dare to explain too much. As long as Jiang Fengya was mentioned, Qiao Wangbei would definitely be infuriated. He simply lowered his head and remained silent, putting himself at Qiao Wnagbei’s mercy.

“Even if you had something urgent, couldn’t you call us first and tell us?

“The weather was freezing, and the university town is far away. If they had encountered an accident, can you bear the responsibility?”

…

Qiao Wangbei was domineering and formidable, and his words were sharp and aggressive.

Fu Yuxiu was already feeling guilty, so he couldn’t refute Qiao Wangbei’s words at all.

Seeing this, Sun Qionghua was so anxious that she was furious. She knew that the Qiao family would definitely bring up this matter, but she thought that with Fu Chen here, he would definitely help them out. However, a certain someone just watched by the side, not saying anything.

She could only walk to Fu Yuxiu’s side and reach out her hand to press his back. “Hurry up and apologize to them!”

“Uncle, Aunt, Wanwan, I’m sorry.” What could Fu Yuxiu do? He could only bend over 90 degrees and apologize to them continuously.

Sun Qionghua kept giving Fu Chen looks, wanting him to help them out.

A certain someone lowered his head and looked at his teacup, seemingly scrutinizing the tea leaves inside, ignoring the looks she was giving him.

“He’s still young and inexperienced, so it’s inevitable that he’ll take detours and be deceived. Please be magnanimous. He did something wrong, and as his mother, I have a responsibility for it too. I also apologize to you.” Sun Qionghua gritted her teeth and apologized to them along with Fu Yuxiu.

“Mrs. Fu…” When Qiao Aiyun saw Sun Qionghua bow and apologize, she was about to reach out her hand, but Qiao Wangbei blocked her.

“We can accept her bow.”

…

After Fu Yuxiu apologized continuously, Qiao Wangbei didn’t continue flaring up. Everyone sat down and began eating.

If Fu Chen wasn’t here today, Qiao Wangbei would definitely have already gone forward to give Fu Yuxiu a punch. Throwing down two kids halfway so late, he’s simply a scoundrel.

When Qiao Wangbei first met Fu Yuxiu, he had looked fine to him and thought that since he was a descendant of the Fu family, he would definitely be alright, so he didn’t object to the marriage.

But now, he was extremely glad and thankful that the engagement had been broken off. If she really married such a person, she would definitely have suffered greatly in the future.

Especially when compared to Fu Chen, who was sitting beside Fu Yuxiu…

He wasn’t even worth being compared to Fu Chen.

***

Song Fengwan had originally thought that Sun Rui came this time because Sun Qionghua was going overseas, so she specially came to see her off. But when they started eating, she clearly noticed something was amiss.

Sun Rui’s eyes were on Fu Chen almost the entire time, and she kept wanting to talk to him.

Fu Chen ignored her throughout, making her feel a little embarrassed and awkward.

Sun Qionghua also spoke occasionally, seemingly having intentions to matchmake the two of them.

Every one of the Qiao family could tell, but this was the Fu family’s business, so they didn’t want to get involved. They just watched by the side and didn’t make any comments.

But no matter what Sun Qionghua said, Fu Chen didn’t respond to her at all. As his sister-in-law, she was in a difficult position, so she could only turn her focus to Song Fengwan.

“Wanwan, you and Little Rui are around the same age. You two can contact each other more in the future.” This wasn’t Sun Qionghua’s first day in Yuncheng. The Qiao family was very close with the Nanjiang Yan family recently, so there was a high chance that they would become in-laws. In that case, her family’s relationship with the Qiao family mustn’t be strained.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble to invite them time and time again.

“There must be a lot of topics to talk about between you girls,” Sun Qionghua said with a smile.

“Yeah, you two can contact each other more.” Fu Yuxiu chuckled lightly.

Song Fengwan bit her lip and casually looked up at Fu Chen, who was opposite her.

Their eyes met.

It’s so obvious that Sun Rui has intentions toward Third Brother, but they still want us to contact each other more?

I’m not stupid.

Song Fengwan looked at Fu Chen with a smile.. Her little eyes were meaningful, and they were clearly saying, “You sure have good luck with women.”
