“I have no regrets. I don’t have the habit of acknowledging a thief as a relative. They harmed my father’s family and my own mother, Fu Qingning. And they still expect to use me to climb up to the Du family? They’re dreaming. They’re not my real family. They’ve probably been dreaming for too long and can’t distinguish between dreams and reality. Do I, Fu Jingchen, look like a fool? Do you think I’m that easy to fool?” Fu Jingchen made no attempt to hide his disgust and contempt for the Pei family, leaving them utterly humiliated.
Pei Danfeng frowned. "You don't accept us? Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
Fu Jingchen said lazily, "Watching a show? Only a fool wouldn't watch a good show. I love seeing you all turn against each other!"
To speak so frankly and smoothly, without concealment or hiding, is open and fearless, showing no fear of being attacked from all sides.
Cui Hailu was certain that Fu Jingchen had come for revenge. Strangely, he hadn't done anything to the aunt and niece, only showing a slight dislike, which she could understand. But Fu Jingchen's lack of competitiveness made her feel that something was off.
This person changes his mind too quickly, altering policies every three minutes, turning his back faster than flipping through a book, making it impossible to fathom his true intentions.
Gu Wanwan suddenly said, "The Pei family is too cold-blooded and heartless. Cui Hailu is a failure as a person and a bit immoral, but at least she was married to Pei Zexing for twenty years and gave birth to a big fat grandson for your Pei family. People usually advise reconciliation rather than separation, but you two are different. For some benefit, you abandoned your wife and child. Your behavior is too ugly."
"You all say Pei Guangzong is filial, yet he can so easily abandon his grandson whom he's lived with for twenty years. What about me, the son of Fu Yanzhou and Fu Qingning, who isn't related to him by blood? I truly feel sorry for Pei Guangzong." Fu Jingchen spoke with such 'sincere emotion,' as if he were genuinely indignant on Pei Guangzong's behalf. "Pei Guangzong has called you grandpa, grandma, dad, and aunt for twenty years. Don't you have any feelings for him at all?"
"Your Pei family loves to make decisions on your own and has never asked for my and Pei Guangzong's opinions. Pei Guangzong has no desire to leave. Since he and Du Lixue have that kind of relationship, you should help him fight for his rights. Forcibly breaking me up with my partner, do you know how serious this is?"
Gu Wanwan emphasized, "Breaking up a military marriage will land you in jail!"
The Pei family gasped; they had forgotten about this incident.
Pei Guangzong suddenly felt envious; even the young master was standing up for him. This development seemed a bit off.
Why am I feeling a little touched? The real and fake young masters can get along well, right?
Actually, Fu Jingchen was right about one thing: the real obstacle preventing him from becoming the young master of the Pei family was the Pei family itself.
Unexpectedly, Gu Wanwan's next words struck a chord with Pei Guangzong: "So what if he's a fake young master? He also has the right to pursue happiness. He strives for love and for his future, which shows his ambition. Although he failed in the end, there's a saying: where you fall, you get up. You shouldn't deny his efforts just because of his small failure. True love is innocent!"
"To be honest, I think Du Lixue is willful and unruly, and not good enough for Pei Guangzong. As a member of the Pei family, he should marry someone with a better background, at least the daughter of a regimental commander. It's a pity that you have to go to the countryside. So let's just make do with Du Lixue and let her go to the countryside with you. I believe that your true love can overcome everything."
"Chen and I wish you both success and a happy marriage."
Pei Guangzong was so flattered by the couple that he couldn't stand Fu Jingchen anymore.
Fu Wanning opened her mouth, having witnessed her brother and sister-in-law tricking Pei Guangzong into becoming an embryo. She couldn't help but give them a thumbs up, "Pei Guangzong, with my brother and sister-in-law's help, you'll soon win the heart of your beauty. You're on a roll! Remember to invite us to your wedding banquet when you and Du Lixue get married!"
Pei Antong suddenly felt like the world had become magical. The fight between the real and fake young masters over status hadn't happened. Instead, there was a 'handshake and reconciliation of the century'. This world was indeed... so crazy that she didn't recognize it!
