Chapter 40 Returning to Yinwan Mansion Alone
"We won't be coming back here tonight. You can pack your luggage when you have time. I'll take you to Genting Highlands at noon." Fu Shangbei put the peeled boiled eggs in a small bowl and pushed it to Yan Nuo's hand, saying in a low voice.
Yan Nuo paused while eating and asked in confusion: "What is Genting Mansion?"
"Where I live. Every week, I go back to the old house one day, come back here one day, and the rest of the time, I live in Genting Highlands."
"Why don't you live with your family?"
"I scared my younger siblings when I had an attack before, and then I moved out." The man always said things lightly that shocked Yan Nuo.
Just as she was silent, the man suddenly turned his head and looked at her with a deep and complicated gaze: "If you don't want to live with me, that's fine. You can live in Yinwan Mansion. I will visit you often."
"What if I want you to move back to Yinwan Mansion with me?" Yan Nuo did not play by the rules.
Fu Shangbei frowned: "I've never heard of a man going to live in his wife's parents' home."
"If others haven't heard of it, then they haven't heard of it. Just come home and live with me." Yan Nuo urged him, her eyes as bright as stars staring straight at his face.
Fu Shangbei met her gaze and opened his thin lips slightly: "No."
"Why!" Yan Nuo frowned. She couldn't pretend anymore. Yesterday's gentleness was all an act. Domineering and authoritarian is your true nature as a big CEO.
"I'm not suitable." Fu Shangbei didn't explain too much and served her a bowl of meat porridge: "Eat it while it's hot."
"You're trying to change the subject." Yan Nuo's eyes were now as sharp as a fireball, glued to Fu Shangbei's face like an X-ray. "Mr. Fu, you said we were husband and wife. How could you hide something from me so quickly? My house has great feng shui and beautiful scenery. Why can't I invite a great Buddha like you to live there? Oh, the kids also want to live in Yinwan Mansion."
"Then stay here. I will come to see you every day and will not miss the time you three spend together as mother and son." The man said responsibly.
"Then I'll go home and live there. If your parents ask, you have to explain it to them." Yan Nuo was still not used to staying here. She admired those who could quickly adapt to their husband's family after getting married. She couldn't do it yet. She admitted that she was a coward.
Fu Shangbei didn't think there was anything wrong with her decision and responded, "I will take care of the issues with my parents. You can do whatever makes you comfortable. You don't have to do anything that makes you uncomfortable. If anyone forces you, just tell me."
Yan Nuo raised his eyes and looked at him in surprise, his heart pounding. Realizing his own weirdness, Yan Nuo lowered his eyes and hurriedly suppressed the feeling of confusion.
After breakfast, Fu Shangbei drove to work himself, and the driver took Yan Nuo home.
Lu Ying, who was still sleeping, woke up and found that her daughter-in-law had run away. The nanny also secretly told her the conversation between the couple during breakfast. Lu Ying felt very sad and heartbroken.
"I thought he would come back to live with his daughter-in-law now that he has one, but I didn't expect him to rather let his daughter-in-law go back to her parents' home and live on her own than live at home."
Lu Ying couldn't help but shed tears of pain.
"What did my son do wrong to have to go through that?"
Fu Zhengming hugged his wife and comforted her: "Okay, the child has grown up and has his own plans. We should not be too harsh on him. We should take things step by step. Did you ever think that he would be willing to get married? Not to mention that we could become grandparents in the future."
Lu Ying was no longer so heartbroken: "I never dared to dream that he could get married."
"You don't have to dream now, everything has come true." Fu Zhengming said in a gentle voice.
…
"I'm back~"
Yan's mother, Jiang Jie, and Uncle Li were shocked when they saw Yan Nuo running back.
"Miss, why are you back? Were you driven back?" Yan's mother asked tremblingly.
Yan Nuo snorted and said unhappily: "Am I that kind of person? I came back after I had eaten my fill. After staying at someone else's house for a night, I still feel that my own home is better."
"Miss, you can't say that. Madam Fu is looking forward to Young Master Fu getting married. Why would she let you come back alone? Did you have a quarrel?" Although Mother Yan had never been married, she knew that a woman had to live with her husband after marriage.
"There's no unpleasantness. It was Fu Shangbei who agreed to let me come back and live here. He asked me to go live with him in Genting Highlands, but I didn't want to, and he didn't want to live here either, so we decided to live separately."
Mother Yan, Sister Jiang, Uncle Li: "..."
"Sister Yan, didn't you say that your son-in-law is very reliable? But now he lets his pregnant wife go back to her parents' home to live alone. How can that be considered reliable?" Sister Jiang couldn't help but complain.
Yan's mother felt guilty: "My best friend wouldn't lie to me. I can only say that my best friend has a filter for that family and always says the best thing about everything."
