Chapter 257 Is Xia Mian my daughter? Did she eat Fu Lichen?
Xia Mian nodded, feeling that her mother's summary was very accurate.
"That's true. After Xia Weiguo bought the house, he didn't have much money left. The money he took from the Xia family before was almost all squandered abroad."
“Lu Lian’er and Lin Siye are used to a life where they are waited on hand and foot, how could they possibly accompany him to live a life of poverty?”
Shen Yingshuang glanced at him with disdainful sarcasm, "So, they must have made a mess of their lives. A mess inevitably leads to arguments, disputes, fights, and oh, and in the end, murder."
Upon hearing that Lin Siye had died and that Xia Weiguo had been arrested, Lu Lian'er was taken to the hospital.
This outcome is quite satisfying!
However... Xia Mian didn't feel very comfortable.
She felt as if she were listening to the stories of strangers, as if Xia Weiguo and Lin Siye were people from a distant past, like people from a previous life.
She glanced at the night outside the window and said, "Mom, let's live well and have a good life from now on."
"Stop paying attention to these irrelevant people and things. They are no longer relevant to us."
Shen Yingshuang suddenly wanted to see Xia Mian. "Come on, let's go out and have a couple of drinks with Mom. It's worth celebrating."
She once thought Xia Weiguo was the love of her life. She entrusted the company to him and trusted him completely.
And what happened? He actually betrayed her and even had an illegitimate daughter, Lu Lian'er.
Seeing him suffer a fate worse than death, Shen Yingshuang felt an indescribable sense of comfort.
"Okay!" Xia Mian readily agreed.
Xia Mian stayed with her mother, Shen Yingshuang, until midnight. Shen Yingshuang, perhaps because she was in a good mood, drank quite a bit and became quite dizzy.
Xia Mian was just about to find a designated driver to take her mother home first, and then go back herself when...
But then they saw a tall, slender figure stride toward their table.
Only when they got closer could they see that it was Fu Lichen.
Xia Mian was taken aback. "Uncle? What are you doing here?"
"I've come to pick up your mother." Fu Lichen scooped Shen Yingshuang up from her seat and carried her home.
Shen Yingshuang stared dizzily at Fu Lichen's mature and handsome face, "Hehe, you're here?"
Xia Mian stared wide-eyed in astonishment. What had she just seen?
The mother actually snuggled into Fu Lichen's arms and hugged his neck.
The atmosphere was perfect! Xia Mian felt like a third wheel!
She swallowed hard and rushed out of the bar. "Um, Uncle, I've called a designated driver. You guys go ahead!"
Watching Fu Lichen's car drive away, Xia Mian was still in shock. When did her uncle... learn to speak? Wasn't he mute? She clearly heard her uncle's deep and magnetic voice just now.
Inside the car, Fu Lichen held Shen Yingshuang in his arms as they sat in the back seat, while the driver in front drove smoothly.
He looked at Shen Yingshuang in his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness.
"Mianmian? Daughter?"
"Twenty years ago, we had that night. Mianmian is now 20 years old. Sister, tell me, is Mianmian really my daughter?" Fu Lichen sighed softly and closed his eyes.
Shen Yingshuang, who was in his arms, was drunk and still laughing foolishly, "Xia Weiguo, you're finally going to die!"
"Mianmian, Mianmian, Mom is so happy!"
She waved her hands and started singing again.
Seeing that she was truly drunk, Fu Lichen could only shake his head helplessly.
Xia Mian returned to the Fu family home in the middle of the night, but Fu Yanshen was not home.
He's on duty tonight and is staying at the team's residence.
Xia Mian was filled with doubts, so she had to wait until the next morning.
She got up early in the morning and rushed downstairs to find Old Madam Fu.
"Grandma, Uncle can talk now?"
"Really? How come I didn't know?" Old Madam Fu was taken aback, looking at Xia Mian in surprise. "He's recovered?"
Xia Mian was silent for a moment. Even Grandma didn't know?
She had to change her approach: "Was my uncle born unable to speak?"
“No, it’s because a few years ago he got sick and stopped talking. Oh, I really feel sorry for him!” Madam Fu said softly. “I used to focus all my energy on my three grandsons and didn’t take good care of him. As a result, he got sick and has been left with a chronic condition.”
“I really regret it! Although he is my youngest son, he has not been treated like a youngest son.”
"Oh, I see. Since it's not congenital, then there's a possibility of recovery." Xia Mian nodded. Could it be that she was just hallucinating from drinking too much last night?
But she really did hear it!
After finishing breakfast, Xia Mian called Shen Yingshuang again, "Mom, are you awake?"
But a deep male voice came from the other end, "My sister hasn't woken up yet, what's wrong?"
It sounds exactly like the voice my uncle made last night!
Xia Mian's eyes widened suddenly. "Uncle? You...you can really talk?"
"Yes, I got better after going abroad for treatment some time ago," Fu Lichen replied casually.
"Congratulations, Uncle." Xia Mian was a little unaccustomed to communicating with Fu Lichen. "I don't have anything to say, I just wanted to see if my mom was awake. She drank too much last night, and I was worried she might have a hangover."
A smile appeared in Fu Li's deep eyes. "I made her a hangover soup, but she's still not awake."
"Well, I'll hang up now. Thank you, Uncle."
"You're welcome."
Did my uncle spend the whole night with my mom last night?
Xia Mian's brain couldn't keep up.
What's going on?
Uncle and Mom...
Xia Mian felt that her brain capacity was insufficient.
In Fu Lichen's apartment, he had just put down Shen Yingshuang's phone when he turned his head and saw Shen Yingshuang kick off the blanket, revealing the traces of last night's frenzy.
His eyes darkened, and he pulled the blanket up with his large hand, covering all the spring scenery on her body.
Shen Yingshuang felt hot and kicked it away.
He covered it up again.
After repeating this several times, he got a little annoyed and simply lay back down next to her, trapping her in his arms.
Shen Yingshuang felt even hotter, as if her body was pressed against a giant furnace.
She opened her eyes in frustration, only to be met with Fu Lichen's mature and handsome face.
Her eyes widened in shock. "Fu Lichen? What are you doing in my bed?"
"This isn't your bed. Look around and see where you are." Fu Lichen looked at the panicked Shen Yingshuang with a calm expression.
Shen Yingshuang's face turned pale as she realized she was in an unfamiliar space.
"Where am I...?"
“My family.” Fu Lichen chuckled softly. “Sister, you have to take responsibility for me. Last night you kissed and bit me. Whether it was twenty years ago or twenty years from now, you are the only woman I will ever have in my life.”
Shen Yingshuang fainted!
No way... Did she take advantage of Fu Lichen again last night, just like that night twenty years ago?
