Chapter 22 – Mr. Fu never takes detours
The fireworks were as magnificent and splendid as Ruan Xia had imagined. This was the joy of having a wealthy husband, and she felt that her filter for money and face had become even thicker.
Ruan Xia : “Hubby, don’t worry, I will engage in a good online debate with the netizens who recommend the noodle restaurant.”
Fu Cheng’an chuckled.
Ruan Xia : “Hubby, are you moved?”
Fu Cheng’an : “How do you engage in a debate? Do you all play the same game?”
It was not until Fu Cheng’an had left that Ruan Xia realized the game page she had just downloaded was still displayed on her phone.
Oh, no…
She couldn’t mix things up.
Ruan Xia felt it was necessary to talk to Fu Cheng’an about this matter.
Ruan Xia usually slept until late morning, sometimes past 10 am, and sometimes even until noon. Fu Cheng’an, who lived with her, knew about this habit.
The next morning, just past 7 am, Fu Cheng’an came out and saw Ruan Xia in the living room. She looked a bit tired, but still attractive, with a delicate beauty.
Fu Cheng’an: “You didn’t sleep?”
Ruan Xia, who had set an alarm and got up early on purpose : “…”
What did he mean by “didn’t sleep”? She was waiting for him here.
Ruan Xia : “Hubby, I can’t sleep. I have insomnia.”
Fu Cheng’an waited for her to continue, wanting to see what she had to say. It was only then that he realized Ruan Xia was actually a bit dramatic.
He didn’t know if this was part of her character in the script, or her real personality.
Ruan Xia handed her phone to Fu Cheng’an and said, “I uninstalled the game from yesterday. I… don’t be angry, okay?”
Fu Cheng’an : “Do I look like someone who gets angry easily?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Xia’s eyes bent like crescent moons, and she threw herself into his arms, not only wanting to hug him but also to be put to sleep.
Ruan Xia : “Hubby, hubby, you used to put me to sleep before.”
Fu Cheng’an stood motionless on the spot, and Ruan Xia only felt that his chest was hard. But when she was in his arms, she felt a sense of security.
Ruan Xia felt that maybe it was because she subconsciously felt that Fu Cheng’an was a reliable man in terms of emotions and marriage, so being with him was very reassuring.
Ruan Xia poked him and said, “Hubby~~”
Fu Cheng’an held Ruan Xia’s hand and said, “Got it.”
Their eyes met, and Ruan Xia felt that Fu Cheng’an might bring up the topic again about what an older man could do for her as a boyfriend.
Ruan Xia said, “Wow, whose husband would put his wife to sleep? Oh, it turns out to be Ruan Xia’s husband.”
Fu Cheng’an chuckled, “Still not letting go?”
Inside the bedroom, Ruan Xia was lying on the bed, yawning and on the verge of tears. She looked like she didn’t need Fu Cheng’an to coax her to sleep. In fact, if Fu Cheng’an left now, she might fall asleep in the next second while lying in bed, with her head on the pillow.
Fu Cheng’an didn’t know how to tell bedtime stories, but he knew that many children needed to hear them. While he was still thinking about what to do, Ruan Xia turned on her side, pulled the blanket and looked at him.
Fu Cheng’an cleared his throat, “I don’t know how to tell bedtime stories.”
Ruan Xia : “Oh.”
Fu Cheng’an : “There’s a banquet tonight, do you want to go?”
Ruan Xia : “What kind of banquet?”
Fu Cheng’an : “Zhou Ya will also be there.”
Ruan Xia : “!!!”
Sleep, immediately, she needed to sleep right now. She had to attend the banquet in the best possible state, and then tell Zhou Ya, tell everyone that Fu Cheng’an was already taken and that his wife was beautiful and charming!
She laughed like crazy. She didn’t need Fu Cheng’an to tell her any bedtime stories.
Besides, he was not good at it.
When Ruan Xia was about to fall asleep, she heard Fu Cheng’an ask, “Will you deliberately run away again next time?”
Ruan Xia: “……..”
Sleepy Ruan Xia didn’t want to answer Fu Cheng’an’s question and soon fell asleep.
Attending a banquet requires formal attire and makeup, but fortunately Fu Cheng’an arranged a stylist for Ruan Xia.
In the afternoon, Ruan Xia was busy preparing for the banquet. The stylist was very professional, and Ruan Xia only needed to answer a few questions or state her preferences when asked.
After finishing her makeup, Ruan Xia looked at herself in the mirror and was amazed. Perhaps because Ruan Xia had never worn a formal dress since she transmigrated, putting on a slim white silk fishtail dress outlined her perfect figure and made her delicate and beautiful face even more stunning.
After putting on the diamond necklace, Ruan Xia took a picture of herself in the mirror and sent it to Fu Cheng’an.
[Ruan Xia : Do I look good?]
Fu Cheng’an did not reply to Ruan Xia’s message, and Ruan Xia did not send another. As for whether Fu Cheng’an saw Ruan Xia’s message, of course, he definitely did.
Could it be that his phone was just for show?
Even if he was busy, he would definitely see it later.
Around 7 o’clock in the evening, Fu Cheng’an came to pick up Ruan Xia to go to the banquet.
Ruan Xia dawdled down to the lobby, and when she saw Fu Cheng’an, the driver had already gotten out of the car and opened the door for Ruan Xia. She walked over and glanced at Fu Cheng’an sitting in the back seat before getting into the car.
Until the car was driving smoothly on the road, Ruan Xia had not spoken a word to Fu Cheng’an.
Fu Cheng’an looked out the window at the scenery, feeling slightly headache.
Ruan Xia reached her hand out in front of Fu Cheng’an, her pair of hands were delicate and fair, without any manicure, the nails were round and faintly pink.
Fu Cheng’an looked at Ruan Xia, asking her what she meant.
Ruan Xia : “Your phone.”
When Fu Cheng’an handed his phone to Ruan Xia, he unlocked and opened it.
Thanks to Jiang Hao’s influence, Fu Cheng’an had never had a girlfriend before Ruan Xia, but he knew about the minefields he needed to avoid, such as the issue of phones.
When Jiang Hao had just gotten engaged to his fiancée, they had an argument over the phone. Jiang Hao thought he needed privacy, but his fiancée believed it was not a matter of privacy, but a matter of trust and whether his behavior was appropriate.
Of course, in the end, Jiang Hao lost and obediently handed over his phone.
Fu Cheng’an felt that he didn’t need to take this detour, and he never took detours.
Since he had decided that Ruan Xia was his girlfriend and future wife, he wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize it.
Ruan Xia opened Fu Cheng’an’s WeChat, just as she had expected.
Ruan Xia : “Fu Cheng’an, you saw the message I sent you in the afternoon, but you didn’t reply!”
Ruan Xia leaned forward, and Fu Cheng’an immediately put down the partition in the car. Ruan Xia’s whole body pressed against him, and her watery eyes stared at him.
Ruan Xia : “You didn’t reply, am I not beautiful?”
Fu Cheng’an’s voice was hoarse, “Beautiful.”
Satisfied with this answer, when Ruan Xia wanted to sit back down, she saw Fu Cheng’an’s lips. Perhaps it was because they were too tempting or maybe she needed to let Fu Cheng’an know that he could only be responsible for her and not love her, but she kissed him.
After a while, Ruan Xia heard Fu Cheng’an whisper in her ear, “It’s bleeding.”
Ruan Xia had bitten Fu Cheng’an’s lips and caused them to bleed.
Ruan Xia asked, “Are you not going to reply next time?”
Fu Cheng’an sighed for a long time and said, “No.”
Ruan Xia would not ask him why, as there were only a few reasons: Fu Cheng’an didn’t want to reply, or he was stunned and didn’t know how to reply.
This was the first time Fu Cheng’an didn’t reply to her message since they admitted to being in a romantic relationship, but it was okay.
Ruan Xia whispered in Fu Cheng’an’s ear, “Hubby, do you think we’ve reached the seven-year itch, and then you fell in love with me again?”
Fu Cheng’an said, “Sit properly.”
Ruan Xia asked, “Why didn’t you say that earlier?” At the same time, she sat up straight without slouching.
Fu Cheng’an touched his lips and asked, “What should we do about it?”
Ruan Xia : “Mrs. Fu was a bit too enthusiastic. Why should we do anything about it?”
Fu Cheng’an : “……”
When they arrived at the hotel where the banquet was held, Fu Cheng’an said something rare, “If there are any problems or if you feel uncomfortable, just let me know and we’ll leave.”
This kind of occasion may have been something Ruan Xia hadn’t attended before.
When they got off the car, Ruan Xia held onto Fu Cheng’an’s arm. When they arrived at the banquet hall upstairs, Fu Cheng’an’s face was the invitation, and someone was even waiting for him.
What surprised them was the woman standing next to Fu Cheng’an, who had just bitten his lip.
Fu Cheng’an almost never brings female companions to events. Usually, it is the assistants who accompany him. At this moment, it seemed that Ruan Xia had surpassed Fu Cheng’an and became the focus.
The man standing opposite Fu Cheng’an asked, “Mr. Fu, who is this lady?”
Ruan Xia didn’t say a word, but pinched Fu Cheng’an’s arm.
Fu Cheng’an remained composed and said, “Mrs. Fu.”
“Oh, Mrs. Fu!”
“Mrs. Fu, you look so perfect with Mr. Fu.”
At the banquet, amid fragrance and shadow, toasting and exchanging cups, Ruan Xia followed Fu Cheng’an, listening to the sound of “Mrs. Fu”, feeling extremely happy.
How could she not be happy at such a banquet?
Ruan Xia : “Mr. Fu, do you know?”
Fu Cheng’an : “What?”
Ruan Xia : “It’s really a lifetime of happiness for me to become Mrs. Fu.”
Fu Cheng’an felt his heart suddenly beating faster, and it seemed like the surroundings had quieted down a bit.
Fu Cheng’an : “What else is there? What is something that makes you happy for a lifetime?”
Ruan Xia : “Will you help me make it happen too?”
Fu Cheng’an lowered his head to look at her, “What?”
Ruan Xia’s red lips slightly parted, “You love me.”
Wow… Ruan xia is top no 1 flirt. She is doing a fabulous job flirting with Mr fu 👍👍👍♥️ Thanks
