Chapter 63 The woman was finally captured.

And just like that, Fu Beichen was appeased!

Lin Qi suppressed a laugh and quickly replied, "Yes, President Fu!"

You think you can't be dealt with? (Professional relationship analyst, got me!)

Lynch's phone suddenly rang.

Lin Qi glanced at the caller ID and quickly answered the phone.

"Hello, Butler Fang... um... Madam!"

Upon hearing Gu Xingnian's voice, he immediately stood at attention.

"Okay, okay, I understand. Don't worry, I'll complete the task!"

After hanging up the phone, he quickly replied, "Madam wants me to call Miss Sheng and ask her to prepare some things for me to take back to the manor."

"What is that?"

"The third book on the bookshelf, Doraemon's Box, a SIM card, and cloud bread!"

Lin Qi quoted him verbatim.

Fu Beichen's eyes flickered. They were all little things for girls. He had never heard of this cloud bread before. Was it something she liked to eat?

"Go and take care of it. Once you have the goods, go back to the manor. Buy a lot of that bread and have the cook learn how to make it for her every day."

"Yes!" Lin Qi suddenly spoke up again, "President Fu, why don't we take Little D back with us to keep your wife entertained?"

"Okay!" Fu Beichen nodded. It would be good to give her something to pass the time, so she wouldn't feel bored.

Yesterday's unpleasantness has long since vanished!

In the afternoon, Jiang Kexin successfully secured the lead role in "Pear Blossom Tomb," but she couldn't be happy.

Perhaps it was because his father was too flamboyant, going around saying that he was Fu Beichen's future father-in-law, that Fu Beichen got angry and withdrew the project from the Jiang family.

Those businessmen were too opportunistic and readily changed their stance based on the prevailing winds, so they all kept their distance from Jiang Chengbin.

Jiang Chengbin directly scolded his daughter for being useless, saying that if she knew how to climb into someone's bed, she would have been the president's wife long ago.

Jiang Kexin called Fu Beichen all day, but he didn't answer.

So she went to wait outside the Fu Group building, only to be told that President Fu had already left.

She was so angry that she cursed and then called Gu Shao and Huo Shao directly, neither of whom knew Fu Beichen's whereabouts.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

Is Fu Beichen avoiding her? No, Gu Xingnian seems to have been in a car accident and disappeared.

Perhaps he went looking for her?

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.

The car drove to the underground parking lot of the Seven Star Hotel, where she had a business dinner tonight.

As she was getting off the bus, suddenly, someone behind her covered her mouth and tongue, and she fainted!

Then the person was carried away.

...

Around 5 p.m., the car had already returned to the manor.

As soon as Fu Beichen entered the hall, the butler came in to greet him.

I reported to him about my wife's condition, saying that she ate very little for lunch, but finished the medicinal diet, and Dr. Lu came to disinfect the wound. Everything was fine.

"Um!"

Fu Beichen nodded and went upstairs. He knocked on the door, but there was no answer.

He pushed open the door, and the curtains in the room swayed, but there was no one in the room. He then went to the study.

Gu Xingnian fell asleep leaning back in her chair, her head tilted to the right. She was sleeping soundly, with a slight smile on her lips, looking especially well-behaved.

She clutched the photo frame tightly in her arms. The photo on the frame showed him when he was twelve years old, still looking very young.

Fu Beichen's gaze darkened; as expected, she cared a lot about this photo.

He was even more certain that they must have known each other when they were children, or at least, she always remembered him from that time.

He walked to the recliner, bent down gently, and carefully lifted her up in his arms.

I moved very gently, afraid of waking her.

She stirred in his arms, as if murmuring in her sleep, and uttered a muffled call.

"Little brother..."

Fu Beichen's heart was jolted.

His usually expressionless face showed a rare hint of tenderness.

He carried her, walking very quietly, and gently placed her on the soft bed.

A few stray hairs fell across her smooth forehead. He raised his hand and gently brushed the hairs away with his fingertips.

Under the light, he realized how beautiful she looked while sleeping, with fair skin and long eyelashes.

When Gu Xingnian woke up again, it was already completely dark.

Faint sounds of lively conversation and music could be heard coming from outside the balcony.

Huh?

How did she end up sleeping in bed? She clearly remembered falling asleep on the recliner in the study that afternoon.

She slowly propped herself up to sit up and tried to move her right leg.

I can still feel a little pain in my ankle, but I can already put some weight on it, and the swelling has gone down a lot.

She slowly moved to the edge of the balcony, held onto the railing, and looked out.

A roaring bonfire was lit on the lawn of the manor, and a group of people dressed in light clothing and wearing straw hats gathered around the bonfire, singing and dancing, creating a very lively atmosphere.

Her heart seemed to be ignited by the leaping flame, and she immediately felt a surge of joy.

I never imagined that this seemingly quiet and orderly manor would have such a vibrant side.

She couldn't help but think that if she had lived here for those past three years, it would have been so much more colorful!

"Knock knock." A knocking sound rang out.

Fu Beichen pushed the door open and came in.

Gu Xingnian turned to look at him, looking a little uncomfortable, after all, the two of them had just had a falling out yesterday.

"Awake?" he asked, his voice calm. "Are you hungry? I'll take you downstairs to get something to eat."

Judging from his tone, it seems like he's calmed down?

Gu Xingnian pointed outside, "What are they doing over there?"

Fu Beichen walked over, followed her gaze, and explained to her.

That was the estate's harvest festival. Yesterday was harvest day, and the harvest was good, so as usual, we had a bonfire party to celebrate. Everyone got together, had some barbecue, and sang songs.

He looked at her, his eyes asking, "Would you like to go take a look?"

Her eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously.

Fu Beichen naturally bent down, intending to pick her up.

“No need, no need,” she quickly waved her hand, “I can walk by myself.”

As she spoke, she tentatively took a few steps forward. It wasn't particularly painful, and although she was still limping a bit, it was definitely much better than yesterday.

Fu Beichen watched as she took clean clothes and slowly walked towards the bathroom, feeling inexplicably annoyed.

Does she really not want him to hug her?

After dawdling for a while, Gu Xingnian changed her clothes and slowly walked out of the bedroom, leaning against the wall.

As soon as they reached the door, Fu Beichen could no longer bear to look.

He stepped forward and, without saying a word, swept her up in his arms.

"Hey you..." Gu Xingnian subconsciously struggled for a moment.

"I'm hungry." Fu Beichen said succinctly, picking her up and striding out. "By the time you get there, the party will be over."

The reasoning was so compelling that she couldn't refute it.

She had no choice but to reach out and hug his neck to steady herself. The familiar, clean, and pleasant scent of him filled her nostrils, and she was momentarily lost in thought.

We finally arrived at the bonfire party venue.

Upon seeing them approaching from afar, the servants who had been sitting or standing all stood up and greeted them respectfully.

"Young Master! Madam!"

"Good evening!"

Everyone's faces showed surprise and joy.

You should know that the young master never participated in these kinds of employee celebrations before.

Unexpectedly, after the wife arrived, the icy young master became much more humane.

The manor manager in charge of the party quickly came forward, his face beaming with smiles.

He specially arranged for a small table covered with a pretty tablecloth to be set up in a relatively quiet spot not far from the campfire.

"Young Master, Madam, this way please."

The long buffet table was filled with all kinds of fresh fruits, sizzling meat skewers, seafood sashimi, exquisite and tempting snacks, and a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The dazzling array of choices was enough to whet one's appetite just by looking at it.

Fu Beichen helped Gu Xingnian sit down in a chair and asked softly, "What would you like to eat?"

Gu Xingnian looked at the table full of delicious food, her eyes almost unable to take it all in. "Wow, it all looks so delicious, I want to try it all, but not the seafood."

Suddenly, a small white dog darted out, Gu Xingnian's expression changed, and she jumped directly onto Fu Beichen.
