The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities
Chapter 933 - 0907 Your daughter-in-law is right there, isn’t she?

Chapter 933: 0907 Your daughter-in-law is right there, isn’t she?

But they could understand.

After all, absence makes the heart grow fonder!

"Daughter-in-law."

Seeing Su Ran and Qi Yuan come out, Tao Wanqing immediately pulled Su Ran over.

"Honey, this is our daughter-in-law."

Su Ran also greeted them with great respect.

"Dad, I’m Su Ran."

Fu Beichen’s gaze turned towards her, his deep eyes scanning over her, and he nodded slightly.

"I know, your mom often talks about you."

Tao Wanqing looked proud, "Honey, isn’t our daughter-in-law beautiful?"

Fu Beichen turned his gaze onto his wife, and his expression softened instantly.

"You’re the most beautiful."

Tao Wanqing blushed and gently hit his chest.

"What a blunt truth."

Su Ran: "..."

Qi Yuan was not surprised, these middle-aged couples could show off their love over a great distance.

So what?

"Dad," he called out.

Fu Beichen’s gaze passed over his son, he nodded, and then they all went inside where the old lady had been eagerly waiting on the sofa.

"Mom."

The old lady looked at Fu Beichen, her eyes constantly scanning over him, finally, she spoke with some heartache:

"You’ve lost quite a bit of weight, is work very busy?"

Fu Beichen shook his head, leading Tao Wanqing to sit beside the old lady.

"It’s alright."

"No matter how busy work is, you must take care of your health."

"Mm."

Fu Beichen said, glancing around the living room, then slightly furrowed his brows.

"Where’s Qi Xiu?"

Tao Wanqing felt a bit awkward, embarrassed to admit she forgot her youngest son to her husband.

"He should be on his way back."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of an engine came from the doorway, followed by the sound of a car door opening and closing.

Then came the sound of the main door’s fingerprint unlock, and as the door opened, they all looked towards the entryway and saw a furry head peeking out from around the corner.

As soon as a pair of eyes peeked out, they met the staring eyes of the group, and a look of embarrassment appeared on the handsome face.

He chuckled twice awkwardly, scratched his head, straightened up, and walked into the living room.

"Dad, you’re back, I missed you so much!"

Fu Beichen squinted slightly, his cold gaze falling on him.

"Did you come back alone?"

Fu Qixiu blinked, a bit puzzled.

"If I didn’t come back alone, should I have come back as half a person? If I came back as half a person, wouldn’t I scare you?"

"..."

"..."

The living room fell silent.

Su Ran couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

This clumsy fellow!

Should I say his line of thinking is unusual?

Was this what Dad meant?

In Fu Qixiu’s mind, that’s exactly what his dad meant.

He looked at his father with his big eyes, his inexplicable gaze carrying a bit of unreasonable mischief.

Fu Beichen: "..."

Tao Wanqing couldn’t stand her husband being at a disadvantage and glared at her younger son.

"You! Don’t twist your dad’s words. Your dad was asking why you came back alone, where’s your wife?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Qixiu’s confusion deepened, he scratched his head and pointed in Su Ran’s direction.

"Isn’t your daughter-in-law right there?"

Tao Wanqing: "..."

This idiot!

Su Ran also felt a twitch in her brow, looking at the doubly defeated Tao Wanqing and Fu Beichen, and then at Fu Qixiu who remained serious and self-assured, she cleared her throat lightly and kindly reminded:

"Mom and Dad meant... your wife."

Fu Qixiu blinked, still a bit baffled, "Where’s my wife?"

Su Ran: "..."

You know you don’t have a wife?

And still feel justified?

Don’t you know to go find one?

"So you do know you don’t have a wife?" Tao Wanqing was somewhat exasperated, glaring at him fiercely.

Fu Qixiu grew even more self-righteous, "Isn’t it normal for me not to have a wife?"

Tao Wanqing snorted, "Also true, if you could find a wife, that would be abnormal."

"..." Is this really something a mother would say?

Fu Qixiu blinked his big eyes, looking pitifully at his father, "Dad..."

Fu Beichen: "You useless thing."

Fu Qixiu: "..."

Has having a wife become the basis for determining one’s status in the family?

Without a wife, even breathing is wrong?

Is there no human rights anymore?

At this point, it was still the old lady who played the grandma’s love card, "Ahem, alright, dinner’s ready, let’s eat first."

Fu Qixiu nodded repeatedly, looking moved, Grandma, you’re my true grandma.

With the old lady speaking, Tao Wanqing and the others couldn’t say much more, so the group got up and went to the dining room.

The six of them gradually took their seats, not many people, but the atmosphere was very warm.

Once the food was served, the old lady started eating first, and only then did the others start to eat.

As usual, Fu Qiyuan began "serving" Su Ran, picking out bones, peeling shrimp, deboning, from beginning to end never letting Su Ran lift a finger.

Seeing this, Fu Qixiu uncomfortably pouted, from childhood to adulthood, his brother had never treated him so tenderly and considerately.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of his parents, and there he saw his tall, handsome, and wise father serving a bowl of soup, gently blowing it, and then carefully placing it in his mother’s hands.

Mother took it, smiled sweetly at Father, and Father looked at her dotingly, then started picking out bones, peeling shrimp, deboning, actions that were just like his brother’s.

"..."

"..."

Indeed... like father, like son?

Every day he was either eating dog food or on the way to eating dog food.

On his left was a pair of middle-aged couples, on his right a pair of young couples, even the old lady at the main seat had Aunt Wu by her side serving her.

Fu Qixiu put down the chopsticks in his hand, reached up to cover his cheek, and let out a loud "tsk" sound.

The maid saw this and quickly came forward, "Second Young Master, what’s wrong with you?"

Fu Qixiu waved his hand, grinning, "Nothing, just a toothache."

The people around him were like this, making him want to fall in love, too.

Just as the thought flitted by, he quickly shook his head.

His dream was the stars and the sea, women would only slow down his sword.

He picked up his bowl and chopsticks again, continuing to focus on his meal.

The happiest person in the room was undoubtedly the old lady, her children few in number, and with only Beichen as her child throughout her life. Her son was trained by the family from a young age and traveled extensively as an adult, having little time for family gatherings.

Moreover, her son’s temperament was inherently cold and indifferent, treating those around him very distantly and coldly, which worried her even more.

Thankfully, her son married a good daughter-in-law, who not only changed his personality considerably but also made him a bit more down-to-earth than before.

The couple was as in love as ever, and, to her relief, even her eldest grandson had now settled down.

Thinking of this, the old lady turned her gaze to her younger grandson on the other side, furrowing her brow slightly, she became a bit wistful again.
