Chapter 66: Successful Strategy
City Lord's Palace.
Shao Leyan chatted briefly with Mu Jiaojiao, and Fu Xingchen asked the person he left with her, who was supposedly taking care of her but was actually monitoring her, to come in and report.
"Madam, your brother is here."
"Let him come in quickly."
Shao Leyan happily hid the communicator, but couldn't help complaining when he saw Le An.
"Why did you come just now? Do you know how long I have been waiting for you?"
Le An smiled stiffly and waited for the waiter to leave before walking to Shao Leyan's bed and sitting down.
"Grandma, tell me the truth, what did you do during the time Fu Xingchen was in the Chiyan District?"
Shao Leyan was startled by Le An's serious expression and subconsciously began to recall.
"I do experiments during the day and sleep at night. During my rest time, I eat, take a shower, and chat with Mu Jiaojiao. I don't do anything else."
"Do you remember what experiment Fu Xingyan performed on you?"
Shao Leyan shook his head honestly, "I always fall asleep and wake up in the room."
Le An swallowed and said, "What I'm going to tell you next is just a guess. You're pregnant now, so you can't have too much emotional fluctuation."
Shao Leyan had a bad feeling, but still agreed boldly: "I know, tell me!"
Le An sighed reluctantly, his expression gradually relaxing. "Let me tell you the good news first. Fu Xingchen's favorability towards you has reached 100. Congratulations, you've secured a long-term meal ticket."
Shao Leyan had anticipated this result and was not surprised.
"I guessed that, but this is a good thing. Shouldn't we celebrate? Why are you still frowning?"
"The problem is, he's not the only one with a 100-point favorability rating for you."
"ah?"
Shao Leyan's mind went blank.
Le An didn't give her a chance to react and spoke immediately.
"I took a look at the other male protagonists' favorability towards you. Mu Jinsheng's has also increased significantly, but Fu Xingyan, like his brother, has a favorability of 100 towards you."
Shao Leyan couldn't believe his ears. He felt like he was struck by lightning and couldn't recover for a long time.
Le An nervously held Shao Leyan's hand, "Are you okay?"
“I…I…”
Shao Leyan was so shocked that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence. He stammered for a long time but couldn't express himself clearly.
"well!"
Le An simply gave up on rational communication, put his arm around her shoulders, and patted her gently to coax her.
"I don't know what you and Fu Xingyan discovered. Judging from your reaction, you probably don't know. But there's still a lot of time, and he'll eventually reveal his true colors."
Shao Leyan recalled his memory but found that he could not find any problems, and the blood in his body froze instantly.
Fu Xingyan didn't behave abnormally after returning from the central city. At what point did his feelings for her reach the maximum?
She couldn't figure it out.
Le An was unaware of the fear and confusion in her heart, and continued to talk.
"Although these two brothers are difficult to deal with, fortunately they both love you very much. If you can handle them well, you might even be able to become the dungeon lord."
"City Lord? You said I can be the City Lord?"
Shao Leyan was so angry that he laughed out loud, "What a joke! If I really become the boss, the dungeon will be doomed soon."
"Why do you say that about yourself? You may not be capable, but you still have three beasts of burden willing to serve you. The dungeon will only get better and better."
Shao Leyan had no confidence and shook his head wildly.
"No, I still can't believe that Fu Xingyan likes me so much. When he came to see me this morning, he looked like he didn't want to talk to me. Now you tell me that he loves me to death? I don't believe it!"
"My system data is more truthful than a man's mouth. He might be angry because you are pregnant with Fu Xingchen's child. Even so, his favorability is still full. You can test it out. He should be willing to do anything for you."
Shao Leyan was skeptical and said, "Then I'll find a chance to try."
She said she was looking for an opportunity to test Fu Xingyan's feelings for her, but for the next sixty days, she couldn't even see Fu Xingyan.
She pretended to be curious and asked Fu Xingchen, but he was unwilling to say more and even complained out of jealousy. Shao Leyan didn't dare to ask again.
After she became pregnant, she had very little time for herself, and she spent it all chatting with Mu Jiaojiao. Apart from having a good relationship with the heroine, this was her only way to communicate with the outside world.
Another pampered lunch.
Shao Leyan opened his mouth and the food was fed into his mouth. He closed his mouth and began to chew, just like a child being fed complementary food by his parents.
She was like a queen trapped in the city's palace, with no other contact except the king, princess and doctor.
One, two, or three days is still acceptable.
You start to get bored after one month, and go crazy after two months.
Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore.
"Xingchen, I'm suffocating."
Fu Xingchen continued feeding her. "Do you want to go for a walk in the square later?"
Shao Leyan closed her mouth, and the spoon held by Fu Xingchen stopped one centimeter away from her mouth.
Fu Xingchen asked curiously, "Why don't you eat anymore?"
Shao Leyan glared at him angrily, "I don't want to eat, and I don't want to go to the square."
Fu Xingchen put down the spoon and bowl, gently stroked Shao Leyan's head, and asked patiently: "Are you angry? Then I will accompany you wherever you want to go."
"I miss Mu Jiaojiao's rose garden." Even when he saw Fu Xingchen's face change, Shao Leyan did not take back what he was about to say, "I want to go to the central city to play."
Fu Xingchen's eyes were gloomy, but he was finally defeated by Shao Leyan's determined gaze.
"You like rose gardens, I can build one for you."
Shao Leyan simply confessed, "Going to the central city is just an excuse. Actually, I'm tired of staying in the underground city and want to go out for a walk, but I know it's dangerous outside, so I can only ask you to accompany me."
Fu Xingchen disagreed: "It's too dangerous."
Shao Leyan hugged Fu Xingchen's arm and leaned her little face on his shoulder, acting coquettishly.
"You'll protect me and the baby, right?"
Fu Xingchen chuckled dotingly and helplessly, "Of course, I will prepare, but I can only stay in the central city for two days."
Shao Leyan nodded with satisfaction.
Anyway, it depends on her how long she can stay, so she should agree to it first while Fu Xingchen doesn't refuse.
She thought she would not have the chance to see Fu Xingyan before leaving, but she did not expect that Fu Xingchen would ask Fu Xingyan and Fu Yue to accompany him.
The two brothers of the Fu family left together, and there was no one in charge in the underground city.
But Fu Xingchen insisted on doing so, and she was the one who took advantage, so naturally she couldn't say anything.
It had been a long time since I last saw Fu Xingyan. When they met again today, Shao Leyan felt that something had changed about him.
Her appearance and figure were the same as before, but when their eyes met, the look in his eyes was as calm as water.
Gone was the old friendliness mixed with an uncomfortable excitement.
