Chapter 687: 0677 Do I look like someone who jokes around? Chapter 687: 0677 Do I look like someone who jokes around? The eerie tone made him change his words immediately, “Where’s my sister-in-law?”

While speaking, there was also a large tail wagging behind him.

Hearing this, a slight smile appeared on Fu Qiyuan’s face, and he replied in a rare good mood.

“The study.”

Fu Qixiu’s expression froze for a moment, and when he realized that the study his brother referred to was the one he understood it to be, he couldn’t calm down at all.

Suddenly, he erupted!

“Brother, you’re actually cohabiting with another woman behind my back?!”

Fu Qiyuan lifted his gaze to him, “You have a problem with that?” After speaking, he silently added, “She’s not another woman.”

Fu Qixiu almost jumped up, “How is she not? You aren’t even married yet, how can you live together illegally, brother, I don’t remember raising you to be like this, you’re being irresponsible!!”

“It will happen soon!”

Fu Qixiu blinked, somewhat unable to keep up with his older brother’s train of thought.

“What will happen soon?”

Fu Qiyuan: “Getting married.”

Fu Qixiu: “…”

He blinked, and then blinked again, for a long while.

“You’re not joking?”

Fu Qiyuan with a serious face, “Do I look like someone who jokes?”

Not at all!

After a while.

Shrill howls rang out in the living room, accompanied by a figure jumping up and down.

“Impossible! This is impossible! How can someone like my brother, who’s clearly destined to be single for life, be getting married? Dear heaven, you must be joking with me, right? The eternal iron tree is actually blooming? Impossible!!”

Fu Qiyuan: “…”

Once he calmed down, he began to gossip again.

Moving closer to his older brother, his face was full of a sly expression.

“Brother, it seems that during my absence, things have developed quite well between you and my sister-in-law, but then again, since you’re in such a hurry to get married, do I have a little nephew or niece on the way?”

Hearing that, Fu Qiyuan felt a slight stir in his heart.

He had never thought about this question before.

He just wanted to marry her as soon as possible, to ensure she could never leave him again in this lifetime.

A child?

His and Xiao Ran’s child?

Just thinking of those words, he felt an irresistible excitement in his heart.

Counting the time, he and Xiao Ran had shared a bed for a while now, and they hadn’t taken many precautions during that period.

Could a new life already be developing?

Fu Qixiu watched the expression on his brother’s face become increasingly sly and realized the gossiping fire was burning fiercely.

“Brother, don’t tell me? Your relationship with sister-in-law is that pure? You two couldn’t have… still not… ”
Under Fu Qiyuan’s lethal gaze, Fu Qixiu immediately shut his mouth, and his gossiping heart was cut in half.

However, he didn’t continue gossiping, because at that moment, there was a more pressing matter at hand.

“Oh no, brother, why did the old man call us back to the ancestral home at this time? He’s not planning to force us into blind dates, is he?”

Fu Qixiu collapsed onto the sofa with a look of utter despondency.

“Yours truly is a bachelor by choice, if I’m forced to take a woman, I’d rather die… No, no, death won’t solve the problem.”

Fu Qiyuan was sitting on the sofa, and when Fu Qixiu mentioned returning to the ancestral home, his deep eyes fell on his flip-flops.

Seemingly thinking of something, his gaze suddenly darkened, and his face showed the severity of an oncoming storm.

Fu Qixiu, looking at his brother’s face, thought for a moment and still couldn’t help speaking up.

“Brother, the old man choosing this time for us to return to the ancestral home, does he know something?”

At this moment, Fu Qixiu’s face lacked his usual nonchalant attitude, turning gravely serious, and his voice was filled with deep concern.

“The stir at Qin Feng’s place has been quite big these last few days; even I’ve received the news. The old man couldn’t possibly be unaware, you…”

Just when the old man chose to call them back, although they didn’t want to think too much, a trace of suspicion still lingered in their hearts.

But it wasn’t just his older brother that the old man called; this time, members from the collateral branches were also present.

As the person in charge of the Fu Consortium, his brother couldn’t possibly not return!

Fu Qiyuan stood up and cast him a dismissive glance.

“It’s nothing.”

With these two words spoken lightly, he turned and walked upstairs.

Fu Qixiu’s face was grave; as the CEO of the Fu Consortium, he knew his brother had too many obligations.

Life, emotions, freedom, even his feelings had to be sacrificed for the family.

He never had a choice, nor did he have much leeway.

From the moment he was placed in that position, everything had to be considered for the benefit of the family.

No one ever asked his brother what he truly wanted.

He still remembered when his brother brought home a stray puppy as a child, only for it to be beaten to death the next day on the old man’s orders, right in front of his brother!

The Fu family always wanted a cold, merciless, iron-fisted person in charge.

Not an heir whose emotions overflowed, constantly exposing vulnerabilities and weaknesses!

His brother had achieved that and had always done very well!

At the very least, since that day, he rarely saw any emotional fluctuations on his brother’s face.

Until now…

–
Evening.

When Su Ran and Fu Qiyuan came downstairs again, they saw someone sprawled on the sofa in a goofy position.

The coffee table in front of him was covered in all sorts of snacks and spicy strips.

He was holding a wine glass, while Mengmeng, the little girl, stood by his side, pouring juice into the glass in his hand.

Life did not get more enjoyable than this!

Since moving to Platinum Lanting and under the influence of the man, Su Ran slowly lost her habit of snacking.

Thus, it was impossible that their house would have so many snacks.

Her gaze shifted to the side and, sure enough, the suitcase was opened, but it was completely empty.

Unable to help herself, Su Ran’s lips twitched. A huge suitcase without a single piece of clothing was filled to the brim with snacks.

The Second Young Master of the Fu family was actually a foodie?

Fu Qixiu watched the two come down from upstairs, his eyes gleaming with ill intent.

Feeling a bit of a headache coming on, Su Ran said, “I’m going to cook.”

“Together,” Fu Qiyuan said.

Su Ran glanced at a certain someone nearby, “No need, you keep an eye on him.”

The underlying message was, don’t let him cause trouble.

Without waiting for the man to respond, Su Ran headed straight into the kitchen.

Fu Qixiu sidled up to Fu Qiyuan with a sycophantic look, “Brother, what is sister-in-law doing?”

Fu Qiyuan gave him a cold look, “Eat your snacks.”

“Oh.”

With Aunt Sun and Aunt Zhang and others helping, dinner was quickly prepared.

“Dinner’s ready.”

Su Ran’s voice came from the dining room, and the two men stood up instantly.

When they saw the table full of sumptuous dinner, Fu Qixiu’s eyes lit up.

“Aunt Sun, you really do understand me best, a table full of dishes I like.”

Aunt Sun smiled, “Second Young Master, Miss Xiao Ran made all of these.”

“She made them?” Fu Qixiu cast a doubtful look at Su Ran.

Su Ran tugged at her lips, “I simply made them according to mine and your brother’s tastes.”

So it’s not for you, just a coincidence!
