Chapter 197: Randomness
You're speaking so loudly, aren't you afraid that others may hear you?
She glanced at Fu Mingchen secretly and cautiously and found that the other party's mind was not on them at all, as if he didn't even notice their conversation.
At this point, Zheng Lulu felt a little relieved. Without saying anything else, she silently opened the back door and slowly got in.
The three of them didn't say much along the way, but returned to the Fu family in silence.
By the time they got off the car, night had already fallen quietly. The entire courtyard was shrouded in the light night sky, looking exceptionally peaceful.
Fu Mingchen turned off the engine, turned the car keys in his hand casually, and walked towards home with a leisurely pace, completely ignoring the two people following him.
There were some conflicts when Hu Ping came here last time, but the situation this time was completely different.
He is now Zheng Lulu's boyfriend. Since Zheng Lulu has been adopted by the Fu family, this place has become her parents' home.
In the future, this will also be his father-in-law's home.
So this time, Hu Ping paid special attention to everything around him, looking left and right, and was full of curiosity about the structure of the Fu family's mansion.
I have to say that in a first-tier city like Kyoto, it is really amazing to own such an independent and spacious courtyard.
As soon as he entered the door, Hu Ping's attention was immediately attracted by Qiao Jin.
However, when he saw this woman who had once helped him and made him unhappy again, his eyes were filled with deep resentment and disgust.
At this moment, Hu Ping was almost 100% sure in his heart that the reason why Boss Chen suddenly changed his mind and decided to support him was definitely because of Qiao Jin's mischief.
Since this woman was the one who made things difficult for him first, he naturally wouldn't let her go easily.
After entering the room, Hu Ping's eyes never left Qiao Jin's direction, even though Mr. Fu was talking to him not far away, as if all the voices became unimportant in his ears.
As the head of the Fu family, Mr. Fu usually has the final say at home and all family members respect him very much.
The young man in front of him actually dared to disobey him in person, which made the old man's face immediately gloomy.
Zheng Lulu, who was standing next to him, also changed her expression slightly when she saw this. Out of concern and politeness, she subconsciously poked Hu Ping's back.
"oops!"
Hu Ping suddenly cried out, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Zheng Lulu said with an unhappy face: "Uncle Fu is talking to you, why don't you know how to be polite?"
After hearing what Zheng Lulu said, Hu Ping came back to his senses, put on a smile, walked forward quickly, stretched out his hand and greeted Mr. Fu who was sitting on the sofa: "Hello, Uncle Fu. I am Zheng Lulu's boyfriend, my name is Hu Ping."
However, Mr. Fu did not seem to be willing to give the young man too much face. He just sat on the sofa indifferently, without any intention of shaking hands, and said in a not very friendly tone: "I won't ask too much about the private affairs between you and Zheng Lulu, but you must also understand that Zheng Lulu is one of my daughters. If one day I find out that you are bullying her, you will have to face the wrath of the entire Fu family. Don't blame me for not reminding you in advance."
"Don't worry, Zheng Lulu and I get along very sweetly!"
Hu Ping spoke fluently with a smile on his face.
There was still no expression on Qiao Jin's face, but his heart was already filled with contempt and disdain.
She was angry at her past naivety and ignorance, for she had been deceived by Hu Ping's sweet words.
If God had not given her a chance to start over, perhaps she would have lived with regret forever, unable to get out of this dark period.
However, Fu Mingchen has always been a straightforward person. He doesn't beat around the bush, nor does he know how to hide his thoughts: "Since you are Zheng Lulu's boyfriend, why did you keep staring at Qiao Jin as soon as you entered the door? What's the matter? Can't you take your eyes off a beautiful woman?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Hu Ping immediately felt the change in the atmosphere and hurriedly began to find excuses to try to mend the rift between him and Qiao Jin.
"Qiao Jin and I actually grew up in the same village and have known each other since we were little. It was just that due to some misunderstandings at the time, she always felt that she was not my type, which led to us missing the best opportunity to get along with each other."
These words, seemingly full of affection, hung in the air for a few seconds before the room suddenly became silent!
Even Qiao Jin was so scared that she almost vomited the soft, tender and fragrant egg custard she was eating.
It is unbelievable that Hu Ping can still say such words without changing his expression?
How thick-skinned does he need to be?
It's as indestructible as iron!
After hearing this, Fu Mingchen's eyes twitched slightly; Mr. Fu's expression became even more complicated - in his heart, he had already regarded Qiao Jin as one of the candidates for his future daughter-in-law, and he had never expected that there was such a past between the two of them.
Although Mr. Fu didn't care that his beloved "future daughter-in-law" had had feelings for other men, he really couldn't accept that the other party was such a low-quality guy as his target!
Faced with this situation, Qiao Jin could only curl her lips helplessly and responded indifferently: "Hu Ping, I'm afraid you misunderstood. The reason why I helped you in the village was purely because I saw that you were living a miserable life - your family was so poor that they could barely afford to eat, but you were unwilling to work hard to change the status quo. Although I am very dissatisfied with your lazy character, we are fellow villagers after all, and I can't just stand by and watch you die, right?"
As for the mention of childhood sweethearts, Qiao Jin found it extremely absurd.
"I think you're probably overthinking it. I've never had any feelings for you beyond the ordinary neighborly relationship. I hope you can understand this fact and stop getting entangled in it in the future. Let's just keep the proper distance."
After hearing these ruthless words, Hu Ping obviously couldn't accept it: "Wait, Qiao Jin, do you still remember that you wrote me a love letter? That day your cousin secretly took the letter and read it to me in public!"
Qiao Jin's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he almost gritted his teeth and said, "Should I still mention the time when you were intimate in the pigpen? It's really disgusting to talk about this kind of thing."
When Hu Ping heard this, he was immediately speechless and secretly complained in his heart: "Oh my god, this matter has also been dug up. I didn't expect that she actually remembered it so clearly and even talked about it in public. I am so ashamed to face people."
"Hu Ping, now that you have a girlfriend, you should take responsibility and stop messing around here. What will the villagers think of you if they find out about this? Especially Qiao Ying, she has always thought she is your official girlfriend. If you let this news spread, what will others say about you? You might even get a bad reputation for two-timing, and then not only will you be embarrassed, but your family will also be affected. It's simply bringing shame to your home."
