Fu Jingyao's entire being screams: He's rich.

Lin Xi: "..."

I really hate people who flaunt their wealth.

However, she was too poor to afford to lose money.

Lin Xi thought for a second, then walked up to the man.

Fu Jingyao reacted instinctively, taking a step back, his expression somewhat flustered. "Lin Xi, what are you doing?"

Lin Xi pulled down her collar and turned her head to one side. "Here, let you bite back."

Anyone who encounters Fu Jingyao will receive purple energy.

Whether Fu Jingyao bites her or she bites Fu Jingyao, the result is the same.

All things considered, she still came out ahead.

She treated it as if she had been bitten by a pig's trotter.

Fu Jingyao stood there, stunned.

From his angle, one can see Lin Xi's fair neck and her shapely figure.

Fu Jingyao looked away, his ears turning even redder. "Lin Xi, get dressed. We're at Grandpa and Grandma's house."

Lin Xi felt confused and moved closer to him. "Hurry up, I need to go to sleep after I finish biting you. I have to set up my stall tomorrow."

Fu Jingyao didn't dare look at her. "I don't bite."

Lin Xi silently complained.

This won't work, that won't work.

A man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; it's truly hard to fathom.

Lin Xi shrugged. "Fu Jingyao, what exactly do you want?"

The first time he heard her call his name, Fu Jingyao felt a strange sensation.

He calmed down and said casually, "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll owe you for now."

Lin Xi readily agreed, "Okay, I'll do one thing for you unconditionally, except for murder, arson, and burning of mountains."

Later, she deeply regretted making that promise.

At that moment, Lin Xi just wanted to sleep. She waved her hand and said, "Goodbye."

Fu Jingyao was also tired, so he followed her back to the villa.

A rustling sound came from the flower bushes not far away. Lin Xi glanced around and asked, "What's going on? Are there rats?"

She rushed over and saw Zhang Wenxiu and Fu Jianhua with their heads down, looking embarrassed.

Lin Xi: "..."

Fu Jingyao: "..."

Grandpa and Grandma are still very active in their old age and have learned to follow others.

Butler Liu stepped forward at the opportune moment, saying, "The roses in the garden are in full bloom. I invited the old master and the old lady out to enjoy the moon and flowers. They were so engrossed in admiring the flowers that they were about to pick a rose to give to Miss Lin as a welcome to her first visit to Shanshui Bieju."

The fourth professional quality of a housekeeper is to step up and help in critical moments, and to take the blame.

Zhang Wenxiu quickly picked a rose and handed it to Lin Xi, saying, "That's right, that's right. Butler Liu is absolutely right. The moonlight is beautiful tonight, the flowers are beautiful, and people are even more beautiful."

"Thank you, Grandma."

Lin Xi chuckled twice and accepted the rose.

When the group returned to the villa, Zhang Wenxiu brought her food and drinks, and Lin Xi was instantly wide awake.

Seeing that the time was right, Zhang Wenxiu smiled and said, "Jingyao, take Linxi to get the marriage certificate tomorrow."

Fu Jingyao was visibly taken aback. "Grandma, I have things to do at the company tomorrow..."

Fu Jianhua interrupted him, "I've already made arrangements. Tomorrow is an auspicious day, so it has to be tomorrow. No excuses allowed. I'll handle things at the company."

Fu Jingyao sighed, "Grandpa, we're still young, this is too hasty."

"Small what?"

Fu Jianhua counted on his fingers, "You're 27 this year, and you'll be 30 in the blink of an eye. In a few more years, you'll be almost 40. You've never been in a relationship, and you don't even have a girlfriend."

“Look at your Grandpa Li’s great-grandson, he’s already in kindergarten.”

"Haha." Lin Xi couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Sorry, please continue."

Fu Jianhua glared and said, "If it weren't for me and Master Xuankong arranging this marriage, you would have been a bachelor for life."

Fu Jingyao's face was cold, and he was powerless to refute.

He was only a little over twenty-five years old, but in his grandfather's mouth, he became a forty-year-old old man.

Zhang Wenxiu clutched her chest, gasping for breath, "Jingyao, you know, Grandma's health isn't good, she won't live much longer,"

"My biggest wish in this life... is to see you get married and have children..."

Fu Jianhua continued, "Lin Xi has no objections, so why are you making so many unnecessary comments?"

Zhang Wenxiu made the final decision: "You two go to the Civil Affairs Bureau first thing tomorrow morning to get your marriage certificate!"

The next day, Lin Xi sat in front of her dressing table.

Zhang Wenxiu took a bunch of bottles and jars and applied layer after layer to her face.

Zhang Wenxiu kept praising her, "My granddaughter-in-law has such beautiful skin and features. The baby you and Jingyao have will definitely be good-looking too. Grandma's biggest wish in this life is..."

Lin Xi used her spiritual energy to plug her ears.

The Fu family is as warm and welcoming as they are, but if they keep repeating this every day, it'll get tiresome.

Zhang Wenxiu put down her lipstick. "Okay."

Looking at herself in the mirror, Lin Xi had red lips and white teeth, and her features were exquisite. She looked more serene than usual.

Grandma specially found her a moon-white cheongsam and simply tied her hair into a bun.

Lin Xi stood there, exuding a sense of serene, moonlit beauty.

When Fu Jingyao saw her like this, a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes.

Zhang Wenxiu couldn't stop smiling. "How's Grandma's cooking? Is your wife pretty?"

Fu Jingyao looked away and replied casually, "It's fine."

"Alright, let's go."

Lin Xi grabbed his wrist and rushed into the car. "Hurry up and finish. I promised the grandpas and grandmas I'd set up a stall today. I can't be late."

She couldn't afford to ruin the image of a master she had worked so hard to build.

Fu Jingyao sat in the driver's seat. "Okay, I'll drive faster."

They remained silent the entire way.

The two entered the Civil Affairs Bureau and, following the staff's instructions, filled out forms and had their photos taken.

"Come closer, come on, smile, cheese."
