Chapter 437 Robbery x Beautiful Lady (17)
Tongues of flame swept across the woman's smiling face, burning fiercely.
Finally, it turned into a handful of black ash and fell at the man's feet.
A gust of wind blew, and the light ashes were scattered.
The man didn't even look at it, letting it dissipate in the air until it disappeared completely.
-
The next day, when Chen Yuan got up, it was already half past eight.
In fact, at eight o'clock, Lu's mother knocked on the door and called out once. Chen Yuan stayed in bed for half an hour before she reluctantly got up.
She simply washed up and went downstairs.
The transparent spiral staircase made pleasant piano sounds when stepped on. Shen Yuan walked down slowly holding the edge. Before she got close, she saw a familiar figure sitting at the dining table.
The movement of going downstairs suddenly stopped, and Shen Yuan couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Didn’t this person go out last night?
She also saw his car.
Hearing the sound of slow footsteps, the man who was dining raised his head and his indifferent gaze fell on the woman standing high up.
"What are you standing there for? Come down and eat."
The slightly raised corners of the lips indicate a man's good mood.
Hearing what he said, three words quickly popped up in Shen Yuan's mind.
What the hell, what's wrong with this guy today? He asked her to have dinner with him for the first time?
It's creepy.
He thought about it in a mess, but didn't show it on his face.
Shen Yuan pretended to be calm as she walked downstairs, waved to Fu Huaisi, and said "good morning" stiffly.
In front of Fu Huaisi was an exquisite American breakfast, and next to it was a glass of pure wine, one third of which he had already drunk.
Mother Lu prepared a Chinese breakfast for Shen Yuan, which included light mung bean porridge and soft steamed buns with honey sauce.
Chen Yuan sat far away from Fu Huaisi, with the Chu River and Han River lying between them.
Seeing that she looked like she didn't want to have anything to do with him again, Fu Huaisi sneered almost imperceptibly.
I'm being stupid again. I still don't know who I should curry favor with.
Qiu Cheng'an will not be able to sit on the position of president of Litai for much longer. The smart woman who knows how to judge the situation has already made her choice.
Fu Huaisi lowered his head and put the red wine into his mouth.
Halfway through drinking the mung bean porridge, Shen Yuan looked at the empty hall and finally realized something was wrong.
"Where are the maids?"
In the past, at this time of time, they would have already started cleaning the third floor.
Once in the morning and once in the evening was the rule set by Qiu Huaxun when he was still alive.
Fu Huaisi didn't even raise his head, and uttered four words concisely.
"I fired him."
"What?" Shen Yuan's voice became uncontrollably louder, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
She hasn't had enough of the life of a wealthy wife who has everything provided for her.
Fu Huaisi put down his knife and fork, glanced at her, and said, "I'm not used to it."
Not used to it?
Shen Yuan frowned, not understanding what he meant, and asked again foolishly.
"What's the meaning."
Fu Huaisi: “…”
Seeing him silent, Shen Yuan suddenly had an idea in his mind and a bold idea came to his mind.
She hurriedly asked, "Are you not used to having so many maids in the villa, or are you not used to living in the guest bedroom?"
"If you're not used to living in the guest bedroom, then just move out. You have a lot of houses in Jingjiang anyway, and you're sure they'll be more comfortable than here."
Her eyes were sparkling at the moment, so innocent that she couldn't hide any other thoughts, and her ill intentions were almost written on her face.
Fu Huaisi's face turned slightly cold, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you trying to get me out?"
"No, how could that be possible? You misunderstood."
The three consecutive denials and the guilty look on his face made Fu Huaisi more certain of his guess.
This woman still can't learn to be obedient.
Shen Yuan felt a chill down her spine and raised her eyes nervously to observe Fu Huaisi's expression.
Then I saw him curl his lips and smile, a frivolous and dissolute smile.
Fu Huaisi leaned back with his tall body, tilted his head, and said sarcastically, "Hey, should I remind you whose name is on this house? You've been living here for a few days, and you really think you're the hostess?"
Even though the old man was partial, he wouldn't leave him nothing.
The property certificate of Huafengyuan is still in the car.
He is full of bad intentions and likes to climb up by groping for help.
Before, how could he be so easy to talk to and make such a ridiculous deal with her?
Fu Huaisi felt that he was too kind to her.
Chen Yuan rarely saw Fu Huaisi truly angry. Even at the funeral, when no one notified him to come back to divide the inheritance, he did not show any anger.
Instead, he smiled and offended everyone present, then waved his hand in an extremely perverse manner and left like a big boss.
He is smiling brighter now than at the funeral. Does this mean that he is even angrier now than at the funeral?
Feeling frightened, Chen Yuan lowered his head and drank a mouthful of mung bean porridge, trying to bury his head in the bowl, making muffled sounds.
"That's not what I meant. I was thinking that you just returned home and haven't recovered your sleep and rest schedule yet. The usual noise in the villa is disturbing your rest."
So this woman was caring about him? Trying to please him?
Seeing that Fu Huaisi's expression had relaxed, Shen Yuan continued his efforts.
"Besides, I know that Mr. Qiu left this house to you after his death. I won't try to snatch it from you. Hua Xun is dead. My only thought now is to help you find the code, and then live a good life with the shares. I won't get in your way."
This sounded quite comforting, but did she really like that old guy? She kept muttering to herself.
Why did she choose a man old enough to be her father when she was so young? She didn't even think it was unlucky.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Fu Huaisi's face darkened again, his eyes were cold, and there was a hint of sarcasm at the corners of his lips.
"So? Should I praise you for being smart?"
Chen Yuan was inexplicably rebuked and felt helpless, not knowing why he was angry again.
He is so unpredictable and difficult to please.
Isn’t this a very understanding statement? She was almost moved to tears by her image of a little white flower.
Shen Yuan pursed her lips a little feeling aggrieved and decided to remain silent and not talk to this sarcastic man.
Without this chattering mouth, the hall fell completely silent.
After cooking, Mother Lu went out and didn't see Butler Wan. At this moment, there were only the two of them in the whole villa.
Fu Huaisi really enjoyed this environment, where no one disturbed him and no one made noise.
Less than two seconds later, I heard a slight chewing sound, like a mouse chewing corn kernels.
Looking up, I saw Shen Yuan holding a steamed bun in her hand, biting it in small bites.
Fu Huaisi stared at it for half a minute before he saw that she had eaten a small half.
He eats as slowly as a snail. He would have starved to death during a famine.
He snorted in disdain and looked away lazily.
Chen Yuan just happened to touch the part coated with honey. Two slender white fingers pinched the edge of the steamed bun and pressed into two deep fingerprints.
Bring it to your lips and take a bite, and the golden honey will immediately stain your plump lips.
Only then did Fu Huaisi discover that she actually had a lip bead.
