When He Shiqing thought that Song Fengwan might have some kind of connection with Jing Hanchuan, her fingers pinched her phone, and her knuckles turned slightly pale.

Just Song Fengwan being able to enter the Jing residence was enough to anger her to the core.

Actually, she had thought about visiting the Jing residence, but she couldn’t find a suitable reason, let alone she didn’t dare to go.

“You just said that Third Master Fu was the guest at the Jing residence today?” He Shiqing frowned. Did Song Fengwan go with Fu Chen?

“Yes, the Fu family and the Qiao family have always been on good terms. Miss Song came to the capital for tutoring last year and lived with Third Master. They should have a good relationship,” the man explained.

Fu Chen?

No wonder Song Fengwan had the opportunity to come into contact with Jing Hanchuan.

“Eldest Miss, do you think Third Master and Miss Song are…”

“How is that possible? Song Fengwan almost became his niece-in-law.” He Shiqing first thought of the difference in their seniority.

Moreover, considering Second Master Fu’s family, it didn’t make sense for the two of them to be together.

Just as she was about to say something, there was a knock on the door. “Eldest Miss, Old Madam is here with Second Miss. Master wants you to go downstairs.”

“Got it.”

He Shiqing was furious. Because of He Xi, she couldn’t even lift her head when she went out now. How could she have the cheek to come here?!

When she went downstairs, the He family was all present.

Seeing her coming over, He Maozhen directly announced a notice. “I plan to hold a filiation banquet to recognize Manman and get her to come back.”

He Shiqing’s fingers tightened around the corner of her shirt but suddenly loosened. She smiled. “Okay, I want Big Sister to come back too.”

He Maozhen was originally just observing. But now that he knew Yu Manxi and Fu Sinian were really married, he naturally wanted to use this relationship. Moreover, everyone knew that Yu Manxi was a member of the He family. If she didn’t come back, the entire He family would become a laughing stock.

“Eldest Uncle!” He Xi gritted her teeth, obviously unwilling.

“She and Fu Sinian are married, and the entire capital is laughing at us now.” He Maozhen also had a lot of complaints about his niece. If not for her, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point.

He glared at He Xi fiercely. He Xi also knew how much trouble she had caused the He family, so she immediately stopped talking.

“Maozhen, she might not be willing to come back.” Old Madam He had been humiliated by Fu Chen in public and couldn’t take this lying down.

The day after, she had been brought to the police station for questioning. This was the first time in her life that she had been interrogated as a criminal. How could she not be angry?

“She said her conditions before. She wants us to make a public statement, and she also wants what Shiqing has,” He Maozhen replied.

“She wants what Shiqing has?” Old Madam He sneered. “Shiqing has four percent of the He Group’s shares. Do you know how much this is worth?”

“Mom, do you know how much money the He Group has lost in the past few days? Many business partners are unwilling to renew their contracts with us. Don’t you know why?

“She’s my daughter too. It’s only right to treat her equally.”

He Maozhen took a deep breath. “Mom, you have to consider how many benefits she will bring to our family when she returns. Fu Shinan is going to enter the leadership cadre, and Fu Chen and Fu Zhongli are famous in the business circle. Have you thought about this? Moreover…

“Fu Sinian’s mother has the Dai family behind her…”

Hearing this, Old Madam He bit her cheek tightly. “But will she come back?”

“Yes, Dad. Will Big Sister come back?” He Shiqing looked gentle and magnanimous, and her tone was very soft.

“I’ve already discussed it with her. She’s about to get married. She can’t possibly not have her maternal family when she gets married, right? How embarrassing would that be? She already agreed.” He Maozhen smiled until his eyes were narrowed into a line.

He Shiqing suddenly exerted force with her fingers, and a nail instantly snapped.

She agreed?

Previously, at her condo and at the charity banquet, she clearly didn’t want to come back. Is it because she wants the shares?

“This filiation banquet has to be grand. I have to invite anyone with status in the capital…” He Maozhen seemed to be able to foresee the enormous business opportunities that Yu Manxi could bring him.

On the other side, Chuanbei Jing residence…

Song Fengwan was sitting in the Jing family’s collection room, holding a paintbrush and sketching an opera costume. The door wasn’t locked, and occasionally, a Jing family member would come to pour tea and bring snacks for her.

Fu Chen and Jing Hanchuan were chatting in the living room. When they saw that it was almost lunchtime, they went to the collection room to see Song Fengwan.

Jing Hanchuan was also curious. What exactly did Song Fengwan paint after staying in the room all morning?

Song Fengwan heard footsteps and suddenly looked up. Fu Chen had already walked to her side. “You’re still painting? It’s almost time to eat.”

“In a bit. Let me finish painting this part.”

Jing Hanchuan walked to the other side of her. The two of them kept a distance from each other, without even the corners of their clothes touching. He lowered his eyes to size up the painting and then looked up to compare it with the opera clothes not far away…

Although it was an imitation of the embroidery of the costume, the coloring was bold, and the brush strokes were exquisite. The charm was completely different.

“Paint after eating.” Fu Chen was very close to her, almost sitting on her chair.

Jing Hanchuan was standing beside her. Song Fengwan knew that her ears were definitely red, and even her breathing was hot. She was so embarrassed that she was about to get up when Fu Chen held her shoulder and forced her down.

“What’s wrong?” The man’s breath was scorching.

Song Fengwan was furious. What does this person want? There’s an outsider here.

Jing Hanchuan wasn’t a fool, so he naturally saw their private actions. He cleared his throat and motioned for them to pay attention.

“Hanchuan…” Fu Chen suddenly said.

“Hmm?”

“Have you finished looking at the painting?” Implying that he could leave after seeing it.

Jing Hanchuan took a deep breath. “I’ll go to the kitchen to take a look. Hurry up and come out to eat.”

With that, he turned around and left. I’ve really never seen such a shameless person. This is my house. He chased me away in order to make out with his girlfriend?

As soon as Jing Hanchuan stepped out, Fu Chen walked over and locked the door.

Sixth Master Jing stood at the door, the corners of his mouth twitching violently.

Lock the door?

This move is really flamboyant. Does he think I’ll barge in?

Linbai has always said that Fu Chen is shameless and outwardly cold but inwardly passionate. It’s true.

“Why did you lock the door…” Song Fengwan was a little nervous. She immediately stood up and looked at Fu Chen warily.

But halfway through her question, she heard the sound of the curtains being drawn. The entire room instantly fell into darkness, and only a sliver of light shone in through the gap, casting mottled lights and shadows in the room.

Song Fengwan gulped nervously and subconsciously wanted to open the door. But Fu Chen was even faster. He grabbed her arm, wrapped her in his embrace, and held the door with one hand.

“Why do you think I locked the door?”

“This is the Jing residence!”

“Hanchuan won’t come…”

Fu Chen moved quickly and hugged her tightly. His hot breath landed on her face. “Wanwan, it’s not a good habit to lie. You even said you wanted to attend a lecture?”

Song Fengwan felt that her body was a little hot. The blood in her entire body seemed to have received some kind of hint and was boiling. Fu Chen’s fingers reached under the hem of her shirt, slid up her waist, and gently caressed her back.

This person is too bold. We’re outside. Song Fengwan reached out to stop him. “Third…”

Before she could finish speaking, Fu Chen sealed her mouth with his. The man lowered his head and rubbed against her from the corner of her mouth to the side of her face, the back of her ears, and her neck, making Song Fengwan moan softly.

“Take your hand away.” Fu Chen lowered his head and coaxed her.

“Stop touching inside.” Song Fengwan wanted to cry from his torment. No wonder he didn’t react when she said she could skip the lecture. He was waiting for her here.

“I won’t do anything in-depth. Be good…”

Fu Chen always had a thousand reasons to convince her…

Jing Hanchuan was sitting in the living room, pinching some fish food and feeding his goldfish. About half an hour later, he saw the two of them holding hands and walking to the living room.

Fu Chen naturally looked like a gentleman as usual.

On the other hand, Song Fengwan’s face was red, and her mouth was swollen from the kissing. Seeing Jing Hanchuan, she lowered her head in embarrassment.

“Sorry for the slight delay,” Fu Chen said matter-of-factly without any guilt.

Jing Hanchuan sneered. It’s been more than half an hour. How can this be called a slight delay? The two of them were kissing each other. How can they kiss for so long? Don’t they get tired of it? How strange.

“We can eat now,” Fu Chen said.

Jing Hanchuan suddenly exerted force with his fingers and crushed the fish food in his hand. I’m already full from this dog food. Why should I eat?

Is this guy really treating my place as a dating location?

After lunch, Fu Chen and Song Fengwan stayed for a while and then went to the small forest behind the Jing residence for a walk. They said that it was to digest their food.

Just as the two of them were about to leave, a Jing family member reported, “Sixth Master, Miss He has come to visit.”

Jing Hanchuan was expressionless, but the corners of Fu Chen’s lips curled up.

“She finally chased to your house..” He smiled gloatingly.
