Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband

Chapter 177: Chapter 151 When did you buy the foot bath tub?

Fu Yisi fell silent for a moment, looking down at the coffee in his hand.

“This wasn’t bought for me?”

“Um? You said it was to coax me.”

“Now there’s only half left; you’ll need to find something to make it up to me.”

Ji Sang: ??????

“…What thing?”

The man turned his head and gave Ji Sang a deep look, without answering. He leaned over to adjust the air vent on the passenger side to the left, then increased the air conditioning in the car.

“I specially asked a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner friend to get some herbal ingredients for foot soaking. If I catch you indulging in eating ice again, will you soak my feet at night?”

Ji Sang: ….

“Soak feet in the summer?”

Fu Yisi gave her a glance.

“Why can’t you soak your feet in summer? I’ve got the stuff today, so…”

The man smiled.

“Tonight you just wait obediently for me.”

“….”

Ji Sang never expected that her momentary lapse in judgment, craving a sip of iced coffee, would turn into a punishment of foot soaking.

On the way back, Ji Sang couldn’t stop thinking about the foot soaking, but ended up too exhausted and fell asleep in a matter of minutes.

Fu Yisi slowed down the car and raised the air conditioning again, his eyes filled with pity for Ji Sang.

Indeed, he had gone a bit too far last night.

He had intended to be gentle since it was her first time; he should have been moderate and controlled.

But once he touched her, it was like tasting the marrow of a fruit.

He couldn’t bear to let her go.

Last night, his physical instincts completely overpowered his rationality.

When they arrived back at the Fu Family house, Ji Sang still hadn’t woken up.

Out of tenderness, Fu Yisi didn’t wake her and carefully carried her out.

Ye Lin, originally coming to the door to greet them upon hearing the noise, swallowed the greeting upon seeing the scene before her.

“Is she asleep?”

Ye Lin whispered to Fu Yisi.

The man nodded slightly, carried Ji Sang to the upstairs room to put her down, and as he stepped down, Ye Lin spoke up,

“Should we delay dinner?”

Fu Yisi lightly laughed,

“No need, she is likely to sleep for a while; I’ll make something for her later.”

When she heard this, Ye Lin didn’t insist, but gave Fu Yisi a look.

“You take it easy too.”

Ji Sang’s overall state today wasn’t quite normal; though she looked good, there were still obvious signs of fatigue in her eyes.

Moreover…

The thick concealer covering her neck and shoulders, the intensity of last night’s activities was such that just the thought made her face turn red.

She had previously thought her son was reserved and self-disciplined.

In the face of his mother’s reproach, Fu Yisi just smiled and did not speak.

“Mom, these few days could you help her prepare the wedding candy?”

Ye Lin paused in her work.

“Wedding candy?”

“Yeah, the hospital has already heard the news.”

Ye Lin was stunned for a moment, then her eyes brightened with a smile,

“Sure, sure, leave it to me.”

Initially, when they got married, the two of them had chosen to keep a low profile and kept the news of their marriage a secret.

Now…

“Does that mean we can start preparing for the wedding?”

What Ye Lin regretted most was not being able to join hands with Yang Jun to plan the children’s wedding.

Still, she had always been looking forward to it.

To infuse Yang Jun’s ideas into the children’s wedding.

Fu Yisi fell silent for a moment.

“Mom, there might be things I don’t understand and I will ask for your advice.”

That meant he was starting to secretly prepare for the wedding.

She knew her own son; once he truly put someone in his heart, with his character, he would definitely want to give Ji Sang the best.

The preparations could take half a year or even a year, easily.

Ye Lin’s eyes widened slightly, and she nudged Fu Yisi with her elbow, radiant with joy.

“I have nothing to do, just come and ask me if there’s anything you don’t understand”

…

After dinner, Fu Jue called Fu Yisi into the study.

Still harboring concerns about the events of the past, even though Fu Yisi had briefly mentioned them on the phone, Fu Jue wanted to understand them in more detail.

Fu Jue, looking at Fu Yisi, whose eyes and brows resembled his own, suddenly thought of his younger self.

He had transitioned quickly from being passionate to reluctantly accepting the restrained nature of the family’s responsibilities when he had to take on the burden of the clan.

Compared to Fu Yisi, he wasn’t as stubborn.

Or rather, he wasn’t as courageous.

Therefore, when Fu Yisi resolutely chose to become a doctor, even though he outwardly opposed it, deep down he still supported the decision.

After all, he could still work for more than a decade.

And furthermore…

He had never really understood Fu Yisi completely.

“What’s your plan for the investigation?”

Fu Jue did not ask directly, but they both understood the implication of the question.

Fu Yisi fell into a rare silence for a long time

Finally, he gave one sentence

“Dad, I won’t do anything that would harm the Fu Family.”

With such a simple statement, Fu Jue understood.

The network behind Fu Yisi, perhaps, was safest unknown to him.

“I don’t know why, but I’ve been feeling very restless lately.”

Over the years, Fu Jue handled Fu Group’s affairs with ease, weathering economic crises and management disarray without ever feeling like he did now.

Especially after being forced to accept the government’s arrangements and cooperation with the Yi Family.

“Trust your instincts, investigate the Yi Family.”

A person cannot disappear into thin air.

With the Fu Family’s financial and influential power, they had been searching for over a decade; it couldn’t just end with no result.

“Understood.”

After the talk, Fu Yisi returned to his room.

Ji Sang hadn’t woken up yet.

The man sat by the bed, looking down at her sleeping face.

The matters of the orphanage in the past were indeed not simple, and they were indeed related to the Yi Family.

If it wasn’t Ji Sang who was connected to Yi Feng, Fu Yisi could have adopted a more aggressive strategy and pushed forward the whole investigation.

However, since it involved Ji Sang, Fu Yisi could not choose this path.

Most importantly, Fu Yisi was also afraid.

Afraid that Ji Sang would not be able to handle the revelation of the past events once they were uncovered.

Sensing the familiar presence beside her, Ji Sang moved slightly and subconsciously leaned closer to the man. Her face rubbed against Fu Yisi’s palm.

Fu Yisi just let his hand stay there, wishing for Ji Sang to keep sleeping.

But for some reason, Ji Sang suddenly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were bleary, her voice was husky

Yet she directly asked

“What’s wrong?”

Fu Yisi’s hand paused, and then he lightly flicked Ji Sang’s nose

“Did you sleep well?”

Ji Sang slowly sat up and rubbed her eyes

And asked again

“Is something the matter?”

Fu Yisi didn’t really want to talk about the orphanage in front of Ji Sang.

“Calling you to eat, otherwise your stomach might suffer.”

Only then Ji Sang realized that it had gotten completely dark outside. Her eyes widened slightly. Before she could speak, Fu Yisi had already cleared her confusion

“We ate already.”

Ji Sang then sighed in relief, lazily yawned

“I don’t feel very hungry.”

She had afternoon tea and some snacks in the café.

“Eat a little anyway, your stomach isn’t very good, is it?”

The man leaned down to lift her out of bed and placed her on the sofa.

Fu Yisi didn’t go down to cook for Ji Sang first, but went to the bathroom to draw water for her.

Ji Sang: …

“When did you buy a footbath?”
