"Let's go eat."
Fu Jingchen pulled Shen Muqing's hand and walked out, their fingers intertwined in a possessive manner, his grip on her hand tightly.
"good."
The restaurant he took her to was a brand under the Fu family, and he had informed them well in advance that it would not be open at noon.
So when Shen Muqing entered this upscale restaurant and didn't see a single person, she understood how terrifying the power of money was. As long as you have enough money, you can make others give way to you.
Shen Muqing lived this parasitic life almost every day. She marveled at how wonderful it was to be a rich person's nanny—high pay, little work, and it was all worthwhile.
Occasionally, she would go shopping with Jiang Wantang, and she was always the one who smiled the most, because the young lady was indeed a young lady; she never looked at the price of things, only at whether she liked them or not.
She was incredibly generous; Shen Muqing's wardrobe was overflowing with bags and clothes given to her by Jiang Wantang. She was willing to go through fire and water for Jiang Wantang, and no one dared to say that she wasn't the first to stand up and fight for Jiang Wantang.
There was nothing she could do; she gave too much.
That evening, Fu Jingchen said with dissatisfaction, "Has Qingqing been going out too often lately?"
Shen Muqing was lying on the bed playing on her tablet, ignoring him and having a great time. These videos were so easy to watch.
"Qingqing?"
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
She didn't lift her head from the screen; she was still scrolling through her phone, grinning with her big teeth.
"You'll come to work with me tomorrow, all day."
"No, Wan Tang and I are going shopping tomorrow. There's a new bag that she really likes."
"My little darling, will you stay with me?"
Fu Jingchen took the tablet from her hand and tried to reason with her.
"No means no." Shen Muqing pouted to express her dissatisfaction. Why was this man so clingy? It was giving her a headache.
She lunged forward to snatch the tablet back, but Fu Jingchen held it high to prevent her from getting it. As they playfully wrestled, the atmosphere became increasingly ambiguous, and their positions became precarious.
Shen Muqing hadn't realized the man's awakening yet, and was kicking wildly with her feet, accidentally kicking him in the body, the sensation under her feet felt very real.
Her eyes widened. Something was wrong. She tried to pull her foot back, but Fu Jingchen held on tightly.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Muqing's voice sounded slightly flustered; at this moment, she didn't really want to provoke Fu Jingchen.
"Too light"
He was spouting some outrageous nonsense, and Shen Muqing was devastated. She didn't want to understand it instantly.
Shen Muqing was then bullied beyond recognition, and she cursed in her heart: Old men really know how to play games, with so many tricks up their sleeves.
Are you going again tomorrow?
"I'm going, I want to go."
Shen Muqing gritted her teeth and protested, "Why should I do whatever he wants me to do? I refuse to accept this."
"My little darling, it seems I've been too lenient with you."
The sound of repeated thumping echoed in the room, followed by the delicate sobs of a woman.
"Waaah, Fu Jingchen, you old man."
"Hmm? Little Darling thinks I'm too old? Looks like I haven't tried hard enough."
"I don't want to."
"Listen to me." Fu Jingchen's back was covered in sweat. "Are you going again tomorrow?"
"I'm not going."
"Good boy/girl, good boy/girl will get a reward."
The commotion continued until midnight, and Shen Muqing once again redefined her understanding of Fu Jingchen. Was this the kind of stamina someone his age should have?
Since Shen Muqing learned that Fu Jingchen didn't have sleepwalking at all, he stopped hiding it and moved all her things to the master bedroom, leaving her original room empty.
After being exposed, Fu Jingchen became even more unrestrained and insisted on sleeping with Shen Muqing, specifically in a hugging manner.
Shen Muqing was woken up by a thumping sound in the morning.
Outside, Butler Zhao directed, "Be quiet, our president's wife is still sleeping."
"OK."
Shen Muqing opened the door and peeked out, only to see many people going in and out of her old room, doing something she couldn't tell what.
When Butler Zhao saw Shen Muqing, his smile widened. "Little Shen, did I wake you up?"
"No, what are you doing?"
"These were all ordered by President Fu. He instructed that this room be converted into your walk-in closet, filled with the latest seasonal bags, clothes, and jewelry. Go and see if you like them."
"ah?"
After a brief mental freeze, Shen Muqing remembered that Fu Jingchen had asked her last night why she insisted on going.
What was her answer again? I think it was because Jiang Wantang would buy her bags and clothes.
At that moment, Fu Jingchen's expression was somewhat stiff. He remained silent for a while and then continued to move vigorously.
So that's how it is. Shen Muqing couldn't wait to go inside. The room had changed, with all sorts of things neatly arranged, and Shen Muqing's eyes were overwhelmed by the sight.
This feels amazing! She used to be a bit grumpy when she woke up, but now that's completely gone.
"Xiao Shen, President Fu said he'll take you to the company to see him after you wake up."
"no problem."
Shen Muqing immediately noticed that the latest item was one that Jiang Wantang liked, and reached out to take it, intending to give it to her in a few days.
She also picked out a lot of clothes and jewelry that suited her, even though she knew Jiang Wantang didn't lack these things, it was a token of her appreciation.
Shen Muqing: Tangtang, I can't go shopping with you anymore, I have to go with Fu Jingchen.
Jiang Wantang: What a woman who forgets her friends for the sake of a pretty face...
Shen Muqing: He bought the bag you liked that hasn't arrived yet, and I plan to give it to you.
The other person seemed to calm down for a few seconds before quickly retracting the previous message.
Jiang Wantang: I knew we were best friends. *blows a kiss*
Shen Muqing: Ha, a woman who forgets her friends for the sake of a bag.
The past month has been easy and joyful, but a big event is about to happen: Jiang Wantang and Fu Jingchen's engagement banquet.
For the past month, Fu Jingchen had been constantly nagging Fu Jingchen to cancel the engagement banquet, saying he didn't want to get engaged.
However, Fu Jingchen was powerless to help. This was a matter decided by the previous generation, and he couldn't just decide not to do it.
When Fu Jingchen realized that pestering his brother was not working, he turned his attention to pestering Shen Muqing.
"Xiao Shen, Qingqing, sister-in-law, please help me. I really don't want to get engaged to someone I don't like."
He was practically kneeling down and kowtowing; his attitude was so sincere that it moved Shen Muqing.
But if Fu Jingchen couldn't accomplish it, how could Shen Muqing possibly be capable?
"Can you get engaged to the person you like?"
Shen Muqing asked curiously, and to Fu Jingchen, those words felt like a knife to his heart, making him even more depressed and plunge him into despair.
"Xiao Shen, how can your 36-degree mouth utter such cold words? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
"Uh, sorry, I touched a nerve. I'll punish myself with a drink."
With that, Shen Muqing raised the warm water in her hand and drank it all in one gulp. "How about that? Was that good enough?"
Fu Jingchen rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. Was he crazy? Why did he have to ask her for help? Did she even seem like a reliable person?
"Forget it, if even my brother can't do anything, you probably can't either."
He dejectedly lifted his leg, intending to go upstairs.
"Wait, I have a plan, do you want to hear it?"
