Fu Yunchen chuckled softly, pulled her onto his lap, and leaned close to his ear, his voice sexy and deep: "Am I really that important?"
Yi Tianran nodded earnestly, took his hand and pressed it to her heart, "In my heart, you are more important than anything else."
Fu Yunchen lowered his head and pressed it against hers, then asked again, "More important than your sons?"
"Uh—" Yi Tianran touched her nose, not answering directly, but smiling and saying, "They exist because of you, right?"
Fu Yunchen gave her a kiss, which he was somewhat satisfied with.
Watching the two lovey-dovey people, the three little ones stood at the top of the stairs and silently glanced at each other a few times.
The little furball grumbled, "Adults are so boring. They have to ask who is more important than whom and compare them with children. They're really getting more and more backward."
Geng Geng, with a smug look on her face, said, "Boring."
Huaihuai couldn't help but complain, "Daddy's so childish!"
Seeing Fu Yunchen's face darken, Yi Tianran coughed, glanced at them a few times, and defended him, saying, "So what if he's childish? I spoil him, and I'm happy to!"
The three little ones: "..."
It seems like the positions of their parents are reversed!
After the joke, Yi Tianran suddenly asked curiously, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen my eldest sister since I came back. Has she been busy lately?"
Huaihuai obediently replied, "Auntie went on a date!"
Yi Tianran was utterly shocked: "What? A date! With whom?"
"Is that even a question?" The little furball looked puzzled. "Of course it's with Godfather Zhuang!"
"!!!" Yi Tianran was both surprised and delighted.
They weren't even together a while ago, how come they've made such a rapid progress?
That Lao Zhuang is really something. He promised to report back to me if there was any progress, but he forgot his friend so quickly because of a beautiful woman.
She couldn't resist taking out her phone and deliberately initiated a video call.
Zhuang Yizhan was on a date with Fu Qingruo. They had finally warmed up the atmosphere and were about to take it a step further by holding hands when the phone rang, scaring him so much that he almost jumped out of his skin.
He hurriedly took out his phone and glanced at it. When he saw who was calling, his lips twitched, and he hung up without hesitation.
But the other party persisted and called again, which he then hung up on.
After several visits, it naturally caught Fu Qingruo's attention. "Who is it!"
"Nobody." Meeting her cold eyes, Zhuang Yizhan no longer hid and said helplessly, "It's Tianran. She's just looking for me to gossip, it's definitely nothing important, so there's no need to pay attention to her."
"What if something happens!" Fu Qingruo said seriously, "If you miss something important because you hung up the phone, you'll regret it. You should answer the phone first!"
Her words always carried an irresistible persuasiveness.
Zhuang Yizhan couldn't help but comply. After thinking for a moment, he apologized to her and went to the side to answer the phone.
Fu Qingruo watched his retreating figure with a faint smile, patiently waiting in the same spot.
She had never thought about liking anyone before, let alone imagining what it would feel like to be in love.
But at this moment, looking at that person, she felt an unprecedented calm, and... an indescribable happiness welling up inside her.
But just then, someone had to be so blind as to shatter this happiness.
"Qingruo!"
An annoying voice rang out from behind her. Fu Qingruo instantly stopped smiling and turned around to see Chu Lin's wicked face.
"It really is you." Chu Lin's face lit up with joy, as if he had long forgotten how he had used her and been humiliated. Instead, he said affectionately, "I knew our fate wouldn't break so quickly. I can run into you even when I'm just out for a walk. You know what? Ever since we parted ways, I haven't been able to forget you..."
"I don't want to know," Fu Qingruo interrupted coldly. "What's so strange about running into someone by chance? I run into the neighbor's dog when I'm walking it, what does that mean? Are you a lapdog too?"
Chu Lin seemed surprised that she would humiliate him so mercilessly, and his heart skipped a beat.
To be honest, he had been so busy lately because of Fu Yunchen's scheming that he was in a terrible mood. But whenever he woke up in the middle of the night, Fu Qingruo's cold face would involuntarily flash through his mind.
He initially wanted to use her and toy with her feelings, but in the end, he found that he was the one who was deeply involved.
Even though she humiliated him like that in the end, even though he was the sister of his enemy, he couldn't forget it no matter what, just like a masochist.
"Qingruo, why are you so stubborn? It hurts both of you." He stepped forward, presumptuously saying, "I actually know that deep down you can't forget me either. After all, my kindness to you wasn't fake. Don't deny it—"
As he spoke, he even tried to take Fu Qingruo's hand.
Just then, a figure appeared, pulling the aloof and noble woman, as pure as a snow lotus, into his arms. The woman's eyes were sharp and piercing, like knives, as she looked at him. "Who gave you permission to touch her?"
Chu Lin's expression changed. He stared at the man in front of him for a while before remembering that he was the guy who had deliberately caused trouble when he and Fu Qingruo were on their date at the restaurant, and also one of Fu Qingruo's suitors.
But he remembered having someone teach the other guy a lesson; this guy should at least have both legs broken, so how could he appear in front of him completely unharmed?
Not only that, he put his arm around Fu Qingruo, held her hand in his, and said tenderly, "His dirty hands didn't touch you, did they?"
Fu Qingruo was taken aback for a moment, seemingly at a loss for what to do with him. "I'm fine, isn't that what you're here for?"
Instead of avoiding the man's touch, she intertwined her fingers with his.
A surge of intense anger flashed through Chu Lin's heart.
When Mingming was with him, if he tried to get close and touch her, Fu Qingruo would show resistance.
He thought it was because the other person was naturally cold and not used to such close contact.
But now that it's a different person, why is it different?
"You bastard, let her go!" Thinking of this, Chu Lin clenched his fists, and in a fit of rage, was about to punch him in the face.
Zhuang Yizhan, however, pulled Fu Qingruo aside and kicked him in the chest, warning, "Sir, I'm on a date with my girlfriend. Don't make a fool of yourself."
Chu Lin hadn't expected him to be so skilled. Caught off guard, he was kicked several steps away. Before he could even feel embarrassed, he heard the second half of Zhuang Yizhan's sentence.
He froze on the spot, then burst into laughter after three seconds. "Your girlfriend? What a shameless person! Have you forgotten how Qingruo rejected you? You dare to call yourself her boyfriend? You're not worthy!"
Zhuang Yizhan was taken aback, as if he was thinking of the time when he watched his beloved and Chu Lin together, even if it was just acting, which made his expression darken.
