Chapter 382 Critical Hit



You can deduce the whole thing from the details and find a solution quickly.

This seemed incredible to Fu Qing.

Li Xu was almost laughing out of anger, "What makes you think she's not smart? If we talk about brains, none of you can compare to her."

Fu Qing was a little dissatisfied and muttered, "The teacher once said that our brains are similar. If I can't compare to her, then you certainly can't compare to her either."

Li Xu: ...

"Silly child, that was all the teacher's trick."

"Impossible." Fu Qing answered without even thinking, "If you were smart, why didn't you drop out of school after graduating from junior high like me?"

Good job.

This sentence caused Li Xu to suffer 10,000 critical hits. He opened his mouth several times but said nothing.

Finally, I could only change the subject and said, "I won't waste my time on you. If you really want to marry Ye Hongmei, I advise you to think it over carefully."

"The problem is that all this is your conjecture. What if Hongmei is not what you said?"

"That's for you to judge. After all, it's you who's going to marry her, not me."

Li Xu has said enough, and the final decision is still in Fu Qing's hands.

If Fu Qing decides to get married as usual, he can only give his blessings.

As for whether he could maintain the current close relationship with Fu Qing in the future, it would depend on Ye Hongmei's situation.

Hearing this, Fu Qing suddenly became impatient, scratching his hair and body as if there were bugs on his body.

Seeing this scene, Li Xu felt as if his body was itching as well, and quickly said, "Lao Fu, stop scratching, it makes me itchy."

Fu Qing finally stopped and pleaded with great difficulty, "Old Li, why don't you give me some advice?"

"I can't." Li Xu shook his head. "I can guarantee that she is scheming, but I can't guarantee that she has bad intentions towards you. If I say something wrong, you might even hate me. So you have to make the decision yourself. Whether it's good or bad, you have to bear the consequences yourself."

It’s different now than it was before.

Ye Hongmei had deliberately deceived him before, so Li Xu could just tell her not to marry him.

But now that he has confessed, whether it is true or false, Li Xu can no longer make this decision for Fu Qing.

Fu Qing was very regretful at this time. If he had known that he would encounter such trouble, he would not have told Li Xu.

The key point is that it is too late to regret now, because after the analysis just now, he also feels that Ye Hongmei is too cunning. If she is still like this after marrying into the Fu family, will he be able to survive?

What will become of the Fu family?

After pondering it for a while, he asked again, "Why don't you ask my parents what they think?"

"Okay, but you have to tell them everything that happened so they can make a better judgment."

Li Xu dared to guarantee that Fu Qing had never told Uncle Fu and his wife that he had known about this matter for a long time, nor did he tell them the reason why he had not been to the Ye family these days.

Otherwise, they would never forgive Ye Hongmei so easily.

"Yeah." Fu Qing responded, then said with a bitter face, "Originally, I wanted to talk to you about something else today. Ye Hongmei wanted to treat you and Du Hong to dinner tomorrow night, but now it seems that you can't go."

"Just think of it as saving her a meal." Li Xu then comforted him, "Don't be so sad, kid. Let's see what Uncle Fu and the others have to say first. Maybe they can come up with a better solution."

"Okay."

Fu Qing sighed, then rubbed his face hard, trying to cheer himself up.

Li Xu also sighed secretly. It all came down to Fu Qing liking Ye Hongmei and wanting to marry her, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome.

The two chatted for a while before Fu Qing said goodbye and left.

Li Jiakang was puzzled. "Second Brother, why does Fu look so unhappy? Did you bully him?"

"You're mistaken. He's quite happy."

"Huh?" Li Jiakang was startled, and then asked Sun Xiu and the others, "Did I see it wrong?"

"I think he's pretty normal anyway."

"I didn't notice it just now, but he was smiling happily when he came. I guess he won't be angry."

It was already dark, and Fu Qing didn't say much when he said goodbye to them, so the others didn't really notice this.

"I must have seen it wrong." Li Jiakang muttered, then asked, "Second brother, Xiao Sen is getting married in just over ten days. What gift are you planning to give her?"

"We'll talk about it later." Li Xu waved his hand and looked over puzzledly, "Why are you asking this?"

"How can we prepare if we don't ask you clearly what you are preparing?" Li Jiakang said unhappily.

As Du Sen's future brother-in-law, and considering that he had taken good care of Li Ju before, Li Xu decided to give him a wedding gift alone.

The Li family also had to prepare a gift, and Li Xu was a member of the Li family. If the gap between the two gifts was too big, Li Jiakang would inevitably be laughed at.

How could he, who always cared about his reputation, bear this?

So he planned to prepare according to Li Xu's standards.

Li Xu understood after a moment's thought, and said jokingly, "I plan to send two thermoses over, you guys take care of them."

"Ah?" Li Jiakang and the others were shocked. "Xiao Xu, you're not wrong, are you?"

Although a thermos is considered a pretty good gift in this day and age, it is totally inconsistent with Li Xu's generous style, so they were a little bit unconvinced.

"That's right."

Li Xu was quite helpless to be honest.

He originally wanted to send something better, but the Du family firmly disagreed.

After arguing several times, there was really no choice but to give up the original plan.

After receiving a positive answer, Li Ping and the others looked at each other and asked, "Why did you think of giving me a thermos?"

"No way, Uncle Du and his men only take the cheap ones."

Now everyone finally understood, and Li Jiakang breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, now we can prepare."

It’s not that he was reluctant to spend the money, but he was afraid of the subsequent trouble.

You have to know that the Li family and the Du family are only in-laws. If the gift he gave this time is too expensive, it would be difficult to prepare gifts for other relatives when there are happy events in the future.

If the gift is too small and people know about it, they will definitely say that they are not considerate.

If the gift is expensive, it will become a huge expense in the long run, and once the door is opened, it will be difficult to close it later.

To be honest, if Li Jiakang hadn't happened to be delivering gifts to the same family as Li Xu, he really didn't want to do this.

Li Xu smiled and said, "Dad, you don't have to worry about me when you send me things. Just give me whatever you want, as long as it's acceptable."

Li Jiakang glared at him, "You're just talking nonsense! If you were like your eldest brother, would I care about you?"
