The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities
Chapter 739 - 0729, would you be so kind?

Chapter 739: 0729, would you be so kind?

Su Ran’s nap had been unusually long; by the time she woke up again, evening was approaching.

There was no longer a man’s figure beside her, but the warmth and his faint scent still lingered in the bed.

At that moment, the door to the room was opened, and Fu Qiyuan walked in dressed to the nines.

"Awake?"

"Mhm."

Su Ran sat up in bed, and as the thin blanket slid off her, it revealed her fair, delicate shoulders.

Purple-red marks were scattered across her shoulders, evidence of their frenzied intimacy.

The man’s gaze remained fixed on her, his eyes filled with a meaningful smile.

Su Ran glared at him speechlessly, then hastily pulled up the blanket to cover herself.

Fu Qiyuan embraced her along with the blanket, laughing as he spoke:

"Still shy?"

Su Ran: "..."

"Did I hurt you?"

Su Ran: "..."

"Or are you unsatisfied?"

"...Can you shut up?" Su Ran, her face flushed red, said through gritted teeth.

Fu Qiyuan: "I can’t."

Su Ran bit her lip and stared at him with a cool gaze for quite a while.

Seeing that the girl was really about to explode, Fu Qiyuan stopped teasing her. He stood up, found her a set of clothes, and dressed her with due respect.

"When are we going back?" Su Ran asked.

"When do you want to go back?"

"Tomorrow, I suppose. Qianran International’s brand is launching this week, and there’s a lot for me to do."

"Okay."

For dinner, the two did not go to the main dining hall, but instead settled their meal in Fu Qiyuan’s separate residence.

As for the ’torturous’ dining mode, Su Ran declared she couldn’t endure it twice in one day.

Besides, Old Master Fu had had a setback at her hand during lunch, and might not be willing to see her now.

As a filial junior, she of course understood the importance of considering her elder’s feelings.

The next day.

As they planned to return home today, both got up and went straight to the main house.

Old Master Fu, upon seeing Su Ran, habitually scoffed, but she didn’t mind and instead greeted him with a smile.

"Good morning, Grandpa."

Old Master Fu choked: "..."

Used to seeing this girl’s lawless behavior in front of him, her sudden submission was something he was unaccustomed to.

Grandpa?

When was she ever so kind as to address him like that?

Old Master Fu eyed Su Ran warily, "What’s your scheme?"

Su Ran, speechless, said, "What scheme could I possibly have? I’m just greeting you."

"You’re that kind-hearted?"

Su Ran: "..."

What had she done?

How could Old Master Fu be so deeply mistaken about her?

"So you mean I should just ignore you?"

Old Master Fu snorted but said no more.

Fu Qixiu, sitting lazily in a chair nearby, said:

"Grandpa, my sister-in-law came to have breakfast with you out of kindness. Why don’t you appreciate it?"

"Kindness? If she was really kind, why didn’t I see either of you last night?"

Fu Qixiu: "Ah, I wasn’t home last night!"

Old Master Fu turned his gaze on him and couldn’t help but kick over.

"Brat, watch yourself, don’t go causing trouble for other people’s nice girls."

Fu Qixiu’s lips twitched involuntarily, and he replied exasperatedly:

"I just said I wasn’t home; where did your mind go?"

"Hmph! You could be up to no good going out."

Fu Qixiu: "..."

Where is the basic trust between people?

After lecturing Fu Qixiu, Old Master Fu turned a stern gaze back to Su Ran.

Su Ran raised her eyebrows and smirked, "Isn’t it because I’m afraid you’ll lose your appetite if you see me?"
