Chapter 563: Chapter 563: The Ancestor Doesn’t See Any Problem

Jiaoyang Temple was bathed in moonlight which added a heavy scent of sandalwood to the air.

Upon entering, Jiangli first headed to the side hall.

Xia Xin went to prepare some tea himself and brought it to the side hall, only to see Jiangli had taken out some tasty snacks.

These were the ones Fu Shiyan had helped Jiangli buy on the way back when they passed by a supermarket.

All of them were tasty treats.

Jiangli was gnawing on a chicken wing.

Xia Xin couldn’t help but laugh and cry, wondering how his ancestor could have such a good appetite.

"Ancestor, have some tea," Xia Xin approached the table, poured the tea, and placed the teacup in front of Jiangli.

While eating, Jiangli said vaguely, "Got it, by the way, Xia Xin, we still have to draw for the free spot today, right?"

Xia Xin replied, "Oh right, I forgot about that."

Upon hearing this, Jiangli handed over his phone to Xia Xin, "You deal with it, just let me know when you’re done."

"Alright."

Xia Xin took the phone and was about to open the forum when he paused and looked down at Jiangli, who was sitting there, cheeks moving non-stop like a little hamster, which was quite amusing.

Thinking about the events of the evening, Xia Xin felt a bit worried. He tentatively reminded, "Ancestor, have you felt that something was off today?"

Jiangli, fiddling with his snacks, cluelessly lifted his head, cheeks puffed, "What’s off?"

Xia Xin was at a loss for words, choosing his words carefully, "Haven’t you felt, Ancestor, that President Fu was acting strangely?"

Jiangli blinked, "How was he strange?"

Xia Xin said, "...Well, he originally said that he wanted the Ancestor to treat him to a meal, right? But then he suddenly brought over the elders. In our culture, that’s like meeting the parents. Don’t you find that strange, Ancestor? You and President Fu were only pretending, so why did he bring up marriage?"

Xia Xin patiently tried to explain things clearly to Jiangli.

Jiangli slightly furrowed his brow, taking a bite of his chicken wing, "What’s the big deal? President Fu told me that we had pretended to be a couple in front of Fu Yi, and Fu Yi told Fu Lang about it. Fu Lang then suggested he wanted to meet me. We just started dating; we can’t suddenly say we’ve broken up now, can we? So President Fu invited me to keep up the act, isn’t that normal?"

Xia Xin: "..."

How was that normal?

Xia Xin quickly sat down, eye level with Jiangli, and earnestly said, "But if it’s just acting, President Fu could’ve found an excuse, saying you were busy and not in F City. There was no need for you to actually go and pretend to meet the parents, right? And, Ancestor, haven’t you noticed that President Fu is a bit too affectionate towards you?"

He opened his eyes wide and raised his eyebrows, making faces to stress the importance of the matter to Jiangli.

But Jiangli didn’t see it as a big deal, "That’s nothing, right? I owe President Fu a favor. Going to H City was also for my sake that he agreed to act with me. Morally, I should help see things through properly. President Fu also said that after some time passes, we can just tell the Fu family that we’ve broken up, wouldn’t that solve everything?"

Xia Xin’s mouth hung open, feeling quite dry.

That may be the case...

But he always felt that Fu Shiyan and the Ancestor wouldn’t split up that easily.

Who knows what else Fu Shiyan might come up with in the future?

He thought that the Ancestor might have a high strength value, but when it came to love, he was just an innocent cabbage, too easy for the pigs to dig up! And Fu Shiyan wasn’t just any pig, but a clever one.

The Ancestor simply wasn’t a match for Fu Shiyan.

Xia Xin worried.

So worried.

Especially seeing Jiangli acting nonchalant, not worried in the slightest.
