Chapter 752
Old Master Fu saw this and huffed again.
“A fluke p>
Upon hearing this, Su Ran didn’t mind. She lightly raised an eyebrow and picked up the documents on the table.
“Hmm, you can consider it a fluke, but this land is now mine p>
Old Master Fu choked, his beard puffing as he glared at Su Ran with wide eyes.
After the meal, Su Ran and Fu Qiyuan didn’t stay long and planned to return to Platinum Lanting.
When the two walked out of the separate courtyard, they saw Housekeeper Cao instructing people to move things.
It looked like gifts.
“Housekeeper Cao, what is this p>
Housekeeper Cao smiled amiably, “Eldest Young Madam, these are gifts specially prepared for you and the Eldest Young Master by the old master p>
Su Ran raised an eyebrow and turned her gaze to the old master standing aside.
The old master simply glanced at her indifferently before moving his gaze away haughtily.
Trying not to laugh, Su Ran gently pursed her lips.
“Thank you for the gift, Grandpa p>
The old master glanced at her, his eyes wide.
“Don’t flatter yourself, this is prepared for Qi Yuan, you’re just incidental p>
Seeing the old master’s embarrassment at being exposed, a hint of amusement flickered in Su Ran’s eyes.
“Oh, then thank you for the ’incidental’ gift you prepared for me, Grandpa p>
Su Ran deliberately emphasized the word “incidental p>
“Hmph!” Old Master Fu hummed softly through his nostrils and turned his face away.
There were quite a few things prepared by the old master, filling two carriages.
Before leaving, he gave Su Ran a meaningful look. In the end, when he met her gaze, he could only coldly drop the words, “Overly smart for your own good p>
Su Ran tugged at her lips, unconcerned.
After all, she never expected to hear anything nice from the old master.
Plus, such a shrewd person as the old master, whatever she did, naturally could not escape his eyes.
Back at Platinum Lanting, Fu Qiyuan pulled Su Ran straight upstairs.
Su Ran’s heart trembled. She knew the man was planning to settle scores with her next!
As for Fu Qixiu p>
That guy had gone off somewhere right after dinner.
Leaving her alone to face Fu Qiyuan’s firepower.
A look of confusion flashed across Su Ran’s delicate face. Perhaps she should take the initiative.
Fess up for leniency, resist for severity?
Seems like playing dumb won’t work either!
After a moment of silence, Su Ran was about to speak.
The man had already led her to the bedroom door. As she blinked, wondering if something R-rated was about to happen, Fu Qiyuan spoke.
“Go take a shower first p>
“Eh?” Su Ran blinked, looking at the man in surprise.
Fu Qiyuan met her gaze, “What? You’re not tired after sitting in the car for two hours p>
Su Ran nodded vigorously, “Tired, very tired p>
“Hmm p>
“What about you?” Su Ran asked.
“There’s work in the study p>
“Oh p>
The atmosphere was silent for a while before Su Ran added,
“You’ve also been sitting in the car for so long, why don’t you rest a bit p>
Her voice was soft, with a hint of coquetry and flattery.
“I’m not tired p>
“Oh p>
Su Ran’s voice was low, sounding somewhat disappointed, and she appeared pitiful.
Fu Qiyuan couldn’t help but curve the corner of his lips slightly, a trace of amusement flickered imperceptibly in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
“Off you go p>
“Okay p>
Su Ran went back to her room, and Fu Qiyuan headed straight to his study.
Half an hour later, she had washed up, changed clothes, and was sitting on the bed, her face showing some indecision.
What to do?
Fu Qiyuan seemed quite angry.
But he spoke with her again, and nothing unusual could be discerned from the expression on his face.
Could she have guessed wrong?
He wasn’t actually angry?
Just being a typical tsundere?
Su Ran fell into thought, and at that moment, Fu Qixiu’s call came through.
“Speak p>
“Hey sister-in-law, you’re still alive, right p>
Upon hearing this, Su Ran rolled her eyes and replied irritably,
“Thanks to you, I can’t die yet p>
“Hehe p>
Fu Qixiu also knew he was somewhat unreliable and laughed awkwardly.
“Where’s my brother p>
“Study p>
“Huh? That calm?” Fu Qixiu was a bit surprised.
“Otherwise p>
“Shouldn’t he be charging at you with a forty-meter-long sword by now p>
The corners of Su Ran’s lips couldn’t help but twitch, “He wouldn’t bear to do that p>
Fu Qixiu almost spat blood when he heard that!
“Damn, you manage to feed me dog food even over the phone, sister-in-law, you’re just too cruel p>
“Are you any less cruel p>
Running faster than anyone else, and he still had the nerve to say that.
“Hehehe… wasn’t I just looking out for myself? My brother might not bear to hit you, but that doesn’t mean he’d spare me p>
“It’s not as extreme as you say. Your brother… he’s pretty normal p>
Fu Qixiu shook his head vigorously, “NoNoNo, that’s not normal, that’s the calm before the storm, if not erupt in silence, then perish in silence, you know p>
“What do you mean p>
Fu Qixiu: “Sister-in-law, my brother is waiting for you to apologize of your own accord p>
Su Ran’s expression gradually became serious, and a twinge of conflict flashed across her face as she thought about Fu Qiyuan’s reaction.
“Are you sure p>
“Of course, I’m his own brother, the closest to understanding him. What other reason could there be p>
Su Ran tugged slightly at her lips, indeed unable to think of any other reason.
“So stop overthinking it. The sooner you die, the sooner you’re reborn. Just go and apologize quickly. Hanging on like this, you’re definitely suffering p>
Indeed, that was exactly how she felt right now.
“Are you sure you’re not setting me up p>
Fu Qixiu grinned, “Look at what you’re saying, you’re my dear sister-in-law, even if I had to set someone up, it couldn’t be you p>
“So, I… shall I go p>
“Go ahead, Pikachu p>
The corners of Su Ran’s lips couldn’t help but twitch again, as she was about to hang up the phone.
“Wait a second, sister-in-law p>
“What’s up p>
“Well, my brother has a bit of a temper, so when necessary, you can put your feminine advantages to good use p>
Su Ran listened confusedly,
“What feminine advantages p>
“Awww, how could I get into the details, you know what I mean, go for it, sis p>
A row of black lines appeared on Su Ran’s forehead involuntarily at the sound of that infuriatingly greasy voice, and she immediately felt an itch in her hand.
“Scram p>
“Haha p>
Fu Qixiu laughed out loudly and then hung up the phone.
He rolled around on the bed with his mobile, wearing a smug expression on his face.
Dear Brother! As a brother, I’ve helped you this much!
Next, it’s up to you!
Su Ran snapped her phone shut, took a deep breath, and then stood up.
The idiot wasn’t wrong!
Better to get it over and done with—I’m going all out!
Throwing her mobile on the bed, Su Ran opened the room door and headed straight for the study.
In the study, Fu Qiyuan was sitting in his chair, dealing with paperwork.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he looked up, glanced at her, then lowered his head back to his documents without uttering a word.
Su Ran’s heart trembled once again.
Indeed, if not erupting in silence, then perishing in silence.
This was the prelude to an explosion!
