Chapter 377: Accidental Slip

Chapter 377: Chapter 377: Accidental Slip

"A recent confirmation, just brought it over for Third Uncle to take a look," Fu Shiyan glanced at Jiangli, his eyes filled with indulgence.

That look instantly confirmed their relationship in Fu Yi’s mind.

Fu Yi looked at Jiangli in astonishment. Although the young girl seemed quite young, she was a match for Fu Shiyan in appearance.

Fu Shiyan grew up overseas from a young age, so having a preference for a bit of an age gap was not really surprising.

With that thought, Fu Yi slowly came to accept it, "So it’s like this. Well then, congratulations to you, Shiyan."

Jiangli remained eerily silent.

She might not have understood what a girlfriend meant before, but that didn’t mean she didn’t understand what a fiancée was!

She guessed that Fu Shiyan probably wanted to fabricate a suitable identity for her to fool people like Fu Yi and the others.

But...

Big brother, if you’re going to play a role, why didn’t you give her a heads up?

Jiangli now didn’t know how to play along.

As she was thinking, Fu Shiyan suddenly leaned in close, speaking in a voice only audible to the two of them, "Abbot, just go with it; it’s just acting."

Jiangli glanced sideways at him.

Fu Shiyan smiled at her, like a breath of spring.

The next second, he grabbed Jiangli’s hand and placed it on his knee.

Xia Xin’s pupils shook: "!!!"

Fu Yi and the others, upon seeing this scene, thought it was just the lovey-dovey behavior of a young couple, quite surprised.

They had never expected such a thing from Fu Shiyan.

Jiangli maintained her smile, thinking to herself, fine, it’s just acting, she understood.

She even took the initiative to hold Fu Shiyan’s hand, intertwining their fingers, and the distance they sat from each other grew closer.

Witnessing their display of affection, Fu Yuxing looked at Jiangli, commenting with a half-smile, "Cousin actually likes such a young girl, huh? She looks quite young but she is beautiful. Cousin’s really fortunate."

He spoke words of praise out loud.

But Xia Xin found it disgusting to listen to.

Especially upon seeing Fu Yuxing’s greasy gaze, Xia Xin frowned in distaste, feeling that this man bore ill intent.

Jiangli responded without batting an eye, "You flatter me, it’s my good fortune, after all. I like Shiyan for his face; it’s a pleasure to look at, much better than some gnarled and bumpy ones."

Fu Yuxing’s expression paused for a moment, feeling as though she was implying something about him.

But when he met Jiangli’s clear eyes, he felt maybe he was overthinking it.

Fu Yuxing looked at Jiangli, somewhat sighing inwardly, what a beauty...

Too bad she had become Fu Shiyan’s woman.

Otherwise, he might have had a bit of fun with her.

"Have some tea first, let’s all have some tea," Fu Yi sensed the weird atmosphere between them and quickly urged everyone to drink tea.

Fu Shiyan was very considerate, picked up the teacup, planning to drink when his hand suddenly slipped.

The tea instantly splashed all over Fu Yuxing next to him.

"Damn, that’s hot!"

Fu Yuxing screamed, jumping up and shaking his pants.

At that moment, his pants were soaked and scalding around his waist.

"Sorry, my hand slipped," Fu Shiyan apologized airily upon seeing this.

Fu Yuxing, jumping around in pain, glared at Fu Shiyan, his face flushed and his neck red, hand slipped?

Go to hell with your hand slipping!

Just now, Fu Shiyan had clearly picked up the teacup just fine, then suddenly threw it towards him, and to make things worse, it hit that particular spot.

To turn around and say it was a slip of the hand?

Who the hell would believe that?!

"Alright, alright!" Wan Qing, seeing the change in Fu Yuxing’s expression, worried he’d lose his temper, quickly said, "Yuxing, go upstairs and change your pants, see if you’re hurt."
