Chapter 805 Extra 2
"Fubao." They both shouted, one frowned and the other greeted him with a smile.
Jiang Fubao held Meng Bujiu's hand and leaned on his arm. Meng Bujiu paused. It was the first time that Fubao was so intimate with him.
His ears gradually turned red.
Shen Hechi looked at them with bloodshot eyes.
"It's you?" It was unexpected, yet expected.
No wonder, no wonder Meng Bujiu treated him like that before.
It turns out that he had been eyeing Fubao for a long time.
How dare he!
He originally wanted to use his official position to pressure Meng Bujiu into paying respects to him, but when he saw Fubao's expression, he gave up the idea.
If his beloved is bullied, Fubao will be sad...
"Sir, why didn't you send someone to tell me that you were coming back home? I could have brought someone to welcome you."
Meng Bujiu's attitude was neither high nor low. He was a fourth-rank official, and the Shen Hechi in front of him was a third-rank official. Not to mention that he was an official in the imperial city, even an official sent out to other places would be much higher than him.
But he couldn't be more flattering.
When Meng Bujiu heard from his subordinates that he had returned suddenly, he rushed over without even changing his clothes.
He knew what Shen Hechi was thinking, but he believed in Fubao.
Fubao has never been a person who is eccentric, despises poverty and loves wealth. He just doesn't want Fubao to be entangled by Shen He.
He was seen standing in front of Jiang Fubao, blocking Shen Hechi's line of sight.
The two men were about the same height, and their eyes met, as if sparks were about to fly.
"Fubao, you..." Shen Hechi didn't want to pay attention to Meng Bujiu, but he was interrupted by Meng Bujiu as soon as he spoke.
"My wedding with Fubao is scheduled for September 25th. Would you be so kind as to attend?"
September 25th?
Isn’t this Fubao’s birthday?
The wedding date had been set, and he was going to lose Fubao completely.
Shen He staggered back a few steps. He wanted to talk to Fubao, but Fubao was completely blocked by Meng Bujiu.
His face turned pale, he smiled at himself, and ran away without caring about his image.
He did not go home, but went to Jiang's snack shop. He ignored Jiang Eryong and Jiang Dahao's greetings and broke into the backyard. Everyone looked up at him.
"He Chi, why did you come back suddenly? Kid, weren't you in the imperial city?" Zhang Jinlan stopped kneading the dough and looked at him in confusion.
"Grandma, please, I beg you, please promise me." Shen Hechi held Zhang Jinlan's flour-stained hand and said with scarlet eyes.
"What are you talking about? What did I promise you? Just tell me." Zhang Jinlan was confused and had no idea what was going on.
"Fubao is beautiful and a miraculous doctor. I am the only one in this world who can protect her. I am now a third-rank official. I will work harder in the future and I must climb to the top. As long as Fubao wants, I am willing to give her everything. I can let Fubao live a carefree life. It will be better for her to marry me. I will give her a better life. Grandma, please marry Fubao to me..."
Hearing Shen Hechi's words, Zhang Jinlan's face suddenly turned cold. She pulled her hand away from Shen Hechi's hand and spoke to him seriously.
"But is the life you give her the one she wants? Fubao never cares about these things. You have never understood her. It doesn't matter if you are a high-ranking official. It is useless if she doesn't like you. Child, listen to grandma's advice. You two are not suitable for each other. Don't mention this matter again in the future. Grandma will pretend that she didn't hear it. Grandma doesn't want to be your enemy."
Zhang Jinlan felt sorry for him as his mother had been murdered when he was young and now his father was also dead, so she didn't have the heart to say anything harsh to him.
Shen Hechi was a smart man and naturally knew what Zhang Jinlan meant.
He opened and closed his mouth, but didn't say a word. After a moment's silence, he left with a dazed look in his eyes.
Shen Hechi stayed at home for seven whole days. He had nothing to eat except water during these seven days. Zhang Jinlan was a little worried about him, but she didn't want to disturb him. He had to rely on himself to get through this relationship.
Seeing this, Jiang Fubao told Meng Bujiu about it.
It was not until Meng Bujiu came to his house and said something to him that Shen Hechi came out the next day.
He had lost a lot of weight and his cheeks were sunken.
In mid-April, he acknowledged Zhang Jinlan as his godmother, became a godparent of the Jiang family, and Jiang Fubao became his godsister.
At the end of April, he set out to return to the imperial city.
Before leaving, Jiang Fubao and Meng Bujiu went to see him off. Shen Hechi glanced at Jiang Fubao and showed a relaxed smile. He glanced at Meng Bujiu again and frowned, as if warning him to treat Fubao well.
Then he got on the carriage and left the city.
