Chapter 1269: Three Dishes and One Soup
More importantly, on the path she had chosen, Bo Jinchuan had barged into her world domineeringly.
Even if it was only because of him, she had no reason to be dissatisfied with such a life.
“It’s enough that you like it. If you like it, that’s the reason why I have to do that.”
Ji Fengmian spoke again.
Shen Fanxing felt a lump in her throat. “You should know very well that to me…”
“There will be a day when I can’t accompany you forever. I know that you might not be able to accept it for a while, and you might encounter many unexpected things, but Fanxing, I also want my life to be more meaningful. As long as you live safely, you will still have the possibility of happiness.”
In the first half of her life, she was trapped by her feelings. In the second half of her life, she only hoped to use all her feelings on her daughter.
If she could live peacefully, there was still a possibility of happiness…
Shen Fanxing felt a lump in her throat and her eyes burned.
“I don’t want you to sacrifice so much for me…”
She choked and her voice trembled.
“Even so, I don’t want…”
“You can’t deprive me of my right to be a mother. Actually, I can tell you this, but you have to be a mother in the future. As long as you’re a mother, you’ll understand me.”
At this point, Ji Fengmian suddenly turned his head and pulled Shen Fanxing’s hand. He looked up at the teary-eyed Shen Fanxing and smiled.
“Have you been with that kid from the Bo family for a long time? How’s your stomach?”
In less than two minutes, Shen Fanxing’s face reddened at Ji Fengmian’s words.
After being together for so long, did her stomach move?
Was this question ambiguous or explicit?
“… Not yet.”
Ji Fengmian frowned. “Not yet? How long have you been together? How many times? You didn’t get it once? Is there a problem? Have you checked?”
“…”
Every time Ji Fengmian asked a question, Shen Fanxing’s face would turn red. In the end, she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Why did they suddenly change the topic?
Sensing Shen Fanxing’s embarrassment, Ji Fengmian pondered for a while before changing the topic.
“Of course it’s for the best! That old man from the Bo family is stubborn. It’s not like we have to marry into the Bo family.”
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips, but she wanted to marry Bo Jinchuan.
“Don’t worry, in a few days, Mommy will choose other good men for you. They won’t be inferior to that boy from the Bo family!”
“… No need.”
Shen Fanxing initially thought that her mother was just saying that. But a few days later, she realized that her mother really meant what she said.
–
She had thought that the following days would be the most lively and turbulent time in Ping Cheng City.
In the end, everything was calm.
Everything that happened at the engagement party had blown up and it was still lingering.
However, the popularity had obviously passed and it wouldn’t cause any more trouble.
Calm.
However, this calmness was like a taut string that might suddenly break when everyone was caught off guard.
In this calm situation, one could only say…
Both sides were waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Three days later, at ten in the morning, Shen Fanxing yawned as she walked down the stairs.
In the living room, Uncle Chu, Chu Yi, and Ji Fengmian were discussing something.
Seeing Shen Fanxing walking down the stairs lazily, Ji Fengmian said coldly,
“You used to wake up so late every day? Who was the one who took care of the company’s matters before? Is there a boss like you? You’ve been either reading or watching television at home these few days. You’re so lazy. Who spoiled your bad habit?!”
Judging from her tone, she was his biological mother!
Chu Yi raised an eyebrow. “I’m afraid she was spoiled by a man.”
Uncle Chu immediately glared at him.
Ji Fengmian pursed his lips. “Indeed, love corrupts!”
“…”
“…”
Shen Fanxing brushed her hair, seemingly immune to her mother’s disdain.
“What’s for breakfast?”
“What breakfast? Just treat it as lunch.”
“Sure.” Shen Fanxing was easy to get rid of. It was good as long as she had food to eat.
When she accidentally saw Chu Yi, she suddenly recalled that she had mentioned to him last night that she was going to the company today.
“I’ll be done soon. Wait a moment.”
Chu Yi’s gaze swept across her body. She was dressed in cotton pajamas. There was no sense of beauty at all. He retracted his gaze and took a sip of the water before saying calmly,
“It’s okay, take your time.”
When she entered the dining room, the servants in the kitchen had already heard her voice and brought out the dishes that they had prepared beforehand.
Sour and spicy shredded potatoes, minced meat, pickled beans, stir-fried vegetables, and a sour and spicy soup.
This was the dish that Shen Fanxing had ordered the cook to prepare in the middle of the night.
When she told Aunt Sun yesterday, Aunt Sun couldn’t wait to cook for Shen Fanxing.
But she was stopped by Shen Fanxing.
She said, “You’ll get fat after supper. We’ll eat tomorrow.” Then, she turned around and went upstairs with an orange.
Seeing the food she had been thinking about all night, Shen Fanxing smiled and greeted Auntie Sun.
“Thank you, you’ve worked hard.”
Auntie Sun shook her head. “It’s my duty. Take your time.”
“Okay.” Auntie Sun entered the kitchen.
Picking up the food with her chopsticks, Shen Fanxing raised her eyebrows in satisfaction.
After dinner, Shen Fanxing went upstairs to change her clothes. When she came down, she looked refreshed and capable. She was still the CEO of Stars International whom they were familiar with.
“Alright, let’s go.”
Hearing this, Chu Yi stood up and the two of them walked towards the door.
Chu Yi drove and Shen Fanxing sat in the passenger seat.
After driving for a long time, Chu Yi finally spoke.
“So be it. Why did you suddenly ask me to work with you?”
Shen Fanxing placed her hand on the car window and rested her forehead on her hand.
“I don’t want to drive. Isn’t it on the way?”
Chu Yi asked, “Have you seen anyone who goes to work in the afternoon?”
Shen Fanxing replied, “Aren’t you one?”
Chu Yi was speechless.
She was indeed a demoness.
“You’re right. Of course it’s on the way!” Chu Yi gritted his teeth and sent a message to someone.
Shen Fanxing glanced at him nonchalantly and asked,
“Isn’t it time for you to join the cast of the Xianxia drama that you just accepted?”
“Next month.”
Shen Fanxing frowned and said,
“Yaochi has taken on a role inside. Help to take care of her manager.”
