1553 Frightened Father and Mother Fu

When Chi Shuyan returned to the Fu residence the next day, she received unprecedented enthusiasm from the Fu family. Chi Shuyan didn’t know that as soon as Fu Qing returned home yesterday, she had shown Father and Mother Fu the things which Chi Shuyan had stuffed into her hands. Of course, Fu Qing only let her parents know about this after specially asking the Master for her permission.

After Fu Qing returned to the Fu residence yesterday evening, the Fu parents were stupefied when she took out the items one after another, especially the storage jade pendant. Father and Mother Fu were so scared that they almost had a heart attack.

Fortunately, the Fu parents were still young and didn’t suffer from any heart disease. Even so, the couple was so shocked that they didn’t sleep the entire night, and neither did Fu Qing.

Speaking of which, she still couldn’t remember when she had saved the Master’s life when she was young. She even specially asked Father and Mother Fu about it. They were also surprised and couldn’t think of a time when their daughter had saved the Master’s life.

Although Father and Mother Fu couldn’t remember if their daughter had saved anyone when she was young, the couple finally understood why the Master had helped the Fu family and their daughter.

Father and Mother Fu felt that they would never forget the Master’s kindness for the rest of their lives.

At the same time, Father and Mother Fu confirmed again that this young Master was definitely no ordinary person, but a living immortal.

Otherwise, how could she give their daughter such magical things? They had only seen such good stuff on TV shows. Father and Mother Fu couldn’t help but envy their daughter’s good luck.

The couple had also taken that pill last night. According to the Master, it was especially good for the body. When the couple smelled the fragrance from the spirit bottle, they felt that it was definitely no ordinary good thing. In particular, Father Fu, who had seen the world, was even more aware of the value of the Nourishment Pill that his daughter had taken out.

The two of them took one pill before they fell asleep. Even though the couple didn’t sleep the entire night, Father and Mother Fu didn’t feel tired at all. Instead, they felt very comfortable. A warm current flowed through their bodies from time to time, and Father Fu even felt that the white hair on his head had turned black a little.

It was also because of this that Father and Mother Fu increasingly felt that the Master was an extraordinary living immortal. When she visited them this time, Father and Mother Fu immediately gave her the best treatment possible.

As soon as she arrived, Father and Mother Fu treated the Master with even more respect, reverence, and gratitude, and invited her to sit at the head of the table in their dining room.

Chi Shuyan was a bit stupefied by Father and Mother Fu’s abnormally respectful and reverent attitude. Fortunately, her teacher’s attitude hadn’t changed much from yesterday, and she didn’t act as reverent toward Chi Shuyan. Otherwise, Chi Shuyan really didn’t know if she would be able to swallow down the food later.

Although Father and Mother Fu were respectful and reverent, they weren’t obsequious. They even personally toasted Chi Shuyan during the meal. Seeing that the Master was young and hence shouldn’t drink, Fu Qing helped stop them.

Chi Shuyan’s heart warmed at her teacher’s protection. Father Fu was a shrewd person, and he could clearly see the Master’s attitude toward his daughter. Although Father Fu couldn’t remember if his daughter had saved the Master when she was young, he was very happy to see her forge a good relationship with the Master.

So, Father and Mother Fu didn’t disturb the two girls.

In passing, Mother Fu couldn’t help but mention her daughter’s marriage fate. She politely asked that if her daughter found a partner, could they ask the Master to read their birth characters again?

Chi Shuyan naturally agreed immediately and specially gave them her contact details. She also said that she and her teacher had an affinity with each other, and hoped that both their families could be connected in the future.

Afraid that the Fu family wouldn’t agree, Chi Shuyan deliberately said, “Uncle and Aunt Fu, I have only my father. He’s in the army. If we are connected to the Fu family, it would be my Chi family who would be elevated. Uncle and Aunt Fu, I hope you won’t look down on my Chi family!”

Father and Mother Fu were simply overjoyed and especially excited. Father Fu’s hand trembled as he held his wine glass, and he praised repeatedly, “Good, good, good… It’s good as long as the Master doesn’t dislike my Fu family. It’s my Fu family who is unworthy of a connection with the Master!”

Fu Qing didn’t say anything, but she saw the especially complicated and warm smile on the young lady’s face.

Mother Fu immediately echoed Father Fu’s words. Just as Father Fu had said, Mother Fu really felt that apart from money, their family didn’t have anything else. However, given the abilities of the Master in front of them, if her Fu family could continue to get along well with the Master, she wouldn’t have to worry about her daughter marrying well in the future.

This was really a good thing!

The atmosphere at the dining table became especially harmonious, and Father Fu broke his vow not to drink a lot.

Mother Fu hadn’t forgotten that the Master had been staying at a hotel. Whether it was the fact that the Master had helped out the Fu family or the fact that the two families would be connected in the future, Mother Fu felt that the Master should stay at their place.

Mother Fu immediately suggested that the Master move from the hotel to the Fu residence.

Chi Shuyan already had a good impression of the Fu family, not to mention that Father and Mother Fu were her teacher’s parents. To some extent, they were also her elders. She would be very happy to stay in the Fu residence and spend more time with her teacher, but she was still a student now. After sorting out her teacher’s issue, she would return to the capital soon, so she could only tell them honestly, “Aunt, I might have to return to the capital in a day or two. Next time, if I come to S City again, I definitely won’t stand on ceremony with you.”

Fu Qing, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke at that moment. Her tone was startled and a little reluctant. “Are you going back to the capital soon?”

Fu Qing hadn’t known the Master in front of her for long, but when she heard that she was returning to the capital, she felt especially reluctant and a little uncomfortable.

Chi Shuyan took in her teacher’s slight frown. Knowing that her teacher couldn’t bear to part with her, she was both happy and a little reluctant at the same time. However, her teacher was in S City and they could stay in contact in the future. Thinking this, her mood improved a lot. She told Father and Mother Fu that she had something urgent to attend to, so she had to return to the capital.

Father and Mother Fu didn’t ask about the exact details of her urgent matter.

Because Chi Shuyan would be leaving S City, Fu Qing was very down at the dining table. It wasn’t until they were almost done with lunch that her mood changed. Seeing that her parents were going to see the Master off, Fu Qing took the rare initiative to get up and say, “Dad, Mom, I’ll see the Master off!”

Father and Mother Fu wanted their daughter to take the Master around the Fu residence, but they were afraid of delaying her, so they simply agreed.

Before Chi Shuyan left, Fu Qing told her to wait. It wasn’t until they went out that Fu Qing took out a square sandalwood box and handed it over. “This is a greeting gift for you. Don’t open it now. Go back to the hotel and open it.”

This was the first time in Chi Shuyan’s life that she had received a gift from her teacher. She was flattered, but she didn’t think much of it. She took it and heard her teacher say gently, “If you come to S City in the future, contact me directly. Don’t book a hotel, just stay at my place. I don’t know why, but every time I see you, I’m especially happy, as if we already knew each other in our past life!”

Chi Shuyan was intimidated by her teacher’s sudden mention of a “past life.” After listening to her teacher, she beamed. She suddenly thought of WeChat and immediately said, “It’s the same for me. Miss… Miss Fu, do you have…?”

Before she could finish speaking, Fu Qing interrupted her. “I’m older than you. If you don’t mind, call me Sister in the future.”

Chi Shuyan was about to do so, when a Fu family bodyguard suddenly came over with a letter. He said that a police officer had brought the letter over just now and said that it was for Fu Qing.

Chi Shuyan’s eyes were sharp. When she saw the words “From He Minrou” on the envelope, a cold light flashed in the depths of her eyes. Without waiting for her teacher to take the envelope, she took it first. Sensing that she had acted rashly, she immediately looked at her teacher apologetically and said, “Sister… Fu, the person who wrote this letter is most likely up to no good. Do you believe me? If you do, why don’t you leave this matter to me to deal with for you?”

In fact, Fu Qing knew what would be in the letter when she saw that it was from He Minrou. After she was caught in the act, she had said all sorts of pitiful things to her, begging for Fu Qing’s forgiveness and pushing all the blame on Zhao Junrong.

But Fu Qing wasn’t stupid. She could now clearly see if He Minrou had good intentions or was hiding evil intentions. This time, He Minrou had sent the letter because she wanted Fu Qing to persuade her parents to let her off on account of their past friendship. She didn’t want to go to jail.

Fu Qing had always wondered why the other party had broken into her house in the middle of the night a few days ago. Even now, He Minrou still hadn’t given her a reason, but Fu Qing felt that she didn’t have good intentions.

Her house had always been tightly guarded, but the other party had actually been able to sneak around for a long time before she was caught. This was the first time Fu Qing realized how dangerous He Minrou was. So, Fu Qing was silent for a while before she made a decision and nodded in agreement with the Master in front of her.

Afraid that the Master would be at a disadvantage against He Minrou, Fu Qing couldn’t help but exhort, “You… be careful. She has deep thoughts and is very dangerous!”

In the end, Fu Qing still wanted to say that her father could resolve this matter, but when she met the bright gaze of the young lady in front of her, Fu Qing simply nodded and stopped dwelling on it.
