Fu Bowen's eyes narrowed slightly behind his glasses as he slowly approached Song Xingyao.
"It's nothing, just a light bump. I'm not that fragile. It's your sister-in-law who has a red mark on her forehead. Si Ming will be worried about her later."
He reached out to touch Song Xingyao's forehead, but Song Xingyao took a step back.
"Big brother... Ah Ming is waiting for me."
Song Xingyao felt that this man was somewhat dangerous. Their relationship was clearly not good, and his words were full of sarcasm, but he still pretended to be a brother to her.
Fu Bowen cornered Song Xingyao, reached out and lifted her chin, examining her with his eyes, "Hmm, she does look quite similar."
Song Xingyao felt uncomfortable with his approach, pushed him away with a little force, and quickly ran back to her room.
When Fu Siming came out of the bathroom, he saw her running back as if she were hiding from a ghost, her face still covered in sweat and looking rather unwell.
"Why are you running? Did Grandpa say anything?"
"No...no, it's just that this is too big...I'm a little lost..."
Song Xingyao didn't mention her encounter with Fu Bowen. The two brothers didn't get along to begin with, and if she caused any more trouble, she wouldn't know how to explain it.
"Idiot! Can't you find someone to guide you?"
Fu Siming reached out and took the things from Song Xingyao's hands.
"The old man is quite generous. This pen was a gift from Teacher Wu to him. He kept it hidden away and couldn't bear to use it. Now it's in your hands."
"Teacher Wu?"
"Mr. Wu Xian visited our home once a few years ago, but then went into seclusion and we lost touch. I wonder where he's been traveling all these years. My old man used to collect a few of his calligraphy pieces, and he's been keeping them even closer to me than I am."
When she was learning calligraphy, the old man mentioned this name.
Later, Song Xingyao searched online and found very little information. She only knew that his calligraphy and paintings fetched high prices at auctions, and that it was extremely difficult to commission his calligraphy. She imagined him to be a calligrapher with integrity, as he never formally attended any public events and there were no photos of him. Usually, his works appeared with his seals, and few people had ever seen what he looked like. He was very mysterious.
"Okay, if we keep talking, it'll get really late. Go wash up. Mom just had someone bring some clothes over; they're in the bathroom."
Song Xingyao didn't notice the expression on Fu Siming's face; she only felt that she was covered in sweat and really needed to take a shower.
She was completely petrified when she opened the clothes.
The entire back is openwork! The front lining is just two thin pieces of silk fabric, with thin shoulder straps hanging two pieces of fabric, and the length is just enough to cover the buttocks.
...
Song Xingyao thought to herself: Is she so hot and open-minded?
Even if Song Xingyao knew what was going to happen and had mentally prepared herself, she still couldn't go out wearing that. In the end, she grabbed a bathrobe from the bathroom and put it on.
Seeing that the woman was wrapped up tightly, Fu Siming asked with ill intent, "What's wrong? Don't the clothes Mom prepared fit?"
“No…yes…” Song Xingyao stammered.
"Then why aren't you wearing anything?" Fu Siming looked at the somewhat flustered woman with a calm expression.
"I……"
Seeing that the woman had lost her composure, her face was flushed with a misty red, and her voice was soft and sweet, Fu Siming stepped forward and picked her up in his arms.
Suddenly lifted into the air, Song Xingyao exclaimed, "Ah!"
After making a sound, she suddenly realized what was happening and covered her mouth with her hand.
Fu Siming originally wanted to tease her patiently, but the woman's shy and coy manner, and her voice as soft as feathers, made him feel restless.
With the ties loosened, the scene before him caused Fu Siming's rationality to collapse.
Song Xingyao's face was burning up. Without the courage of alcohol today, the embarrassment of being sober only made her feel more dizzy.
*
The two were awakened by the knocking on the door. Song Xingyao was still wearing Fu Siming's shirt, so she had to push Fu Siming away.
Fu Siming was still half asleep and was naturally annoyed. "Stop calling me. I'll be down in a bit."
Opening his eyes, Fu Siming saw the woman nestled in his arms and realized that he was still in the old house.
At the dinner table, only Jiang Man and Fu Siming were present. Fu Bowen and Fu Ting had left for the Fu family business, and the old man had gone fishing long ago.
Jiang Man was overjoyed to see the faint pink mark on Song Xingyao's neck; her plan had succeeded. However, fearing she might frighten Song Xingyao, she held back her words.
Jiang Man wanted to stay a few more days so that she could put her plan to have a grandson on the agenda.
Seeing his mother's expression, Fu Siming knew she was up to no good, so he acted first and informed her later.
"Mom, we'll go back to Haiyan after breakfast. I still have to go to work."
Jiang Man, realizing her thoughts had been exposed, wanted to see what Song Xingyao was going to say, but her son shut her down with a look. After finishing breakfast, she stormed off.
Although Song Xingyao couldn't stand the "surprise" Jiang Man had prepared last night, she still liked her very much. Everyone here was kind to her, except for that cobra Fu Bowen...
They treated her much better than the Song family.
Fu Siming could tell she was a little reluctant to leave, and said almost unconsciously, "If you want to come back, we can find another time to come back."
Song Xingyao was stunned by these words; she hadn't expected Fu Siming to say something like that.
Their marriage was nothing but a beautiful dream, how could she dare to hope for so much? But Fu Siming still spoke her mind.
She knew she should remind herself not to indulge in such tenderness for too long. But occasionally, just occasionally, was fine.
Old Xu took Song Xingyao to Haiyan, and then drove Fu Siming to the company.
It was already late when she returned from the old house. She was thinking about buying a computer and books in the afternoon, so she ate a little something for lunch and then took a nap.

In the afternoon, two trending topics about Jiangcheng suddenly appeared on the hot search list.
[Beicheng Baijia Industry Relocates Back to Jiangcheng]
[Tiansheng Group President Fu Siming secretly obtains marriage certificate]
...
Two major news stories suddenly broke on Weibo, and almost everyone in Jiangcheng was discussing them.
[Netizen A: Fu Siming has been an entrepreneur for so many years. There were rumors in the industry early on that he had a first love. Could it be that they've finally gotten together?]
[Netizen B: The news of the Bai family's return to Jiangcheng is explosive. The Bai, Fu, and Fu families were originally prominent families in Jiangcheng. I heard that the Bai family decided to move away because they had a feud with someone, which even led to the loss of the Bai family's young master. Now that they're coming back, I think the wealthy are about to undergo another major reshuffle.]
[Netizen C: I'm so heartbroken. Fu Siming is Jiangcheng's most eligible bachelor. He already had the Fu family business, yet he went out and started his own business, and he did a great job. God, I'm now on the same wavelength as you rich people.]
[Netizen D: Upstairs, you don't know anything. That's because their family is rich that they've become so successful. Now, an ordinary person starting a business will lose so much they'll want to jump off a building.]
[Netizen E: It's okay, it doesn't matter that our CEO Fu is getting married. The young master of the Bai family will become the newest diamond bachelor in Jiangcheng!!!]
[Netizen F: Perhaps no one thinks Fu Siming's wife is very beautiful, but doesn't she look familiar...?]
[Netizen G: What's so pretty about her... she's quite ordinary. It's all thanks to the makeup artist's skillful hands...]
...
Following numerous online comments, Tiansheng officially posted their marriage certificate and issued a statement, indicating that they reserve the right to pursue legal action against anyone spreading rumors.
