Shen Feng never imagined that his cousin would be so bad*ss to tame the Devil Incarnate of the Li family. Now in a blink of an eye, Shen Xi became the daughter of the Fu family too. People probably would not believe him and think he was bluffing if Shen Feng were to tell them who Shen Xi was.
“Of course, I can handle my man.” Shen Xi smiled confidently. “Now the question is to you. When will I get a cousin-in-law?”
“Get off my back.” Shen Feng rolled his eyes at her. “I’m focused on my career. You love birds won’t understand.”
Shen Xi noncommittally burst out laughing. “More like no one wants you!”
Shen Feng turned black in the face. “Go and ask around in school. I have so many girls coming after me and queuing from our school building to the school gates. They are all the prettiest girls on campus.”
“Yes, the prettiest girls nationwide are fighting over to be your girlfriend.” Shen Xi was in stitches.
Shen Feng retorted, “Believe it or not, but if I say I’m your brother, all the pretty girls, I’m talking about from the whole wide world, will be forming a line to be my girlfriend.”
He could be considered a relative of the Fu family. If Shen Feng were to shout that from the rooftops, girls would kill to be his girlfriend.
Shen Xi pursed her lips. “Riding on coattails is not a good color for you.”
Shen Feng responded, “Well,
Shen Xi snapped back. “Fine! Keep on riding!”
Shen Feng remarked, “I’m going to ride you bald!”
‘The pair exchanged glances and giggled at the same time. They were in no position to sneer at each other since they were both acting childish!
Everyone was formally introduced as they had a feast equivalent to a family gathering and reunion lunch. It was a lively scene.
‘At two o’clock in the afternoon, Shen Xi bade Shen Zhangqing, Yun Jinping, and the rest goodbye as she set off together with the Fu family to her other home.
‘They were taking the Fu family’s private jet. Since the plane belonged to Shangguan Yangiu, the interior was tastefully decorated.
Immediately after getting onto the plane, Fu Qingxuan squeezed beside Shen Xi and Shangguan Yanqiu on a sofa. It was a long sofa with a coffee table in front. There was another sofa across the space.
Shangguan Yanqiu intentionally picked this seat to have a bonding moment with her daughter, instead of mingling with the boys.
The unwanted boys of the family had to sit and chat in another guest reception area that was separated by a partition.
Li Yuan was talking with Fu Handing while Toffeecito, who came along, nestled on his lap with its head nodding off.
Fu Qingli and Fu Qingye were tempted to learn more about Shen Xi, but they would rather die than ask and chat with Li Yuan. Their blood pressure would only hit boiling point if they had to listen to Li Yuan’s dating history with their precious sister.
Fu Qingye would glance at the partition every now and then.
Flipping through paperwork, Fu Qingli took a quick look at him. “Call Xuan over to keep you company if you’re bored.”
Qingxuan, the sly b*stard, was quick to board the flight and run to Mom and their sister. Everyone should be equal, all for one and one for all, or nothing at all.
Having read Fu Qingli’s mind, Fu Qingye pointed at the chair in the opposite direction. “Move a chair and sit there if you want to go.”
Fu Qingli was without a word.
Fu Qingye got up and carried a chair next door to look for the girls.
Fu Qingli pulled a long face. “…”
Traitor!
They were all traitors!
Meanwhile, Fu Qingxuan showed his phone to Shen Xi. “Dearest sister, which do you think looks good and suits me?”
Shen Xi took a quick glance. It was a scarf, and a hideous one too. However, Fu Qingxuan looked good in everything with that face of his. He could make a paper bag look stylish. Shen Xi gave her honest opinion. “The white is easier to match in outfits.”
Fu Qingxuan nodded and hummed in acknowledgment. He scrolled down to find a picture on the side that sold yarns. It also came with a tutorial to knit a scarf. Acting as if it was an unintentional tap on the link, Fu Qingxuan looked curious. “Oh, you can buy balls of yarn to knit yourself.”
Shen Xu uttered, “Sure. I know how to knit.”
Fu Qingxuan eagerly added. “Knit me one.”
Sitting across from them, Fu Qingye observed the scheming guy at work. Fu Qingxuan was trying too hard with his mind games, but still, it was a cunning move to get a present from their sister!
Li Yuan’s scarf caught their eye prior to their departure. Xuan asked in passing about the scarf and found out that Xixi knitted it for him. Jealousy washed over him right there and then.
Shen Xi looked at Fu Qingxuan, finally realizing why he showed her his phone. There it came. However, a scarf was no trouble at all. She nodded and gave her word. “Sure.”
Fu Qingxuan excitedly balled up his fists. Had it not been because he wanted to keep up the appearance of an older brother, Fu Qingxuan would have jumped up in joy. “Thank you, my dear sister. You’re the best.”
“Xixi.” Fu Qingye tenderly gazed at her. “Would it take a lot of your time to knit it?”
“No.” Shen Xi gave it a thought. Since she had to knit anyway, one or two did not make much of a difference.” She smiled brightly and said, “Brother, I’ll knit you one too.”
Fu Qingye was dying to get his hands on a scarf knitted by her, so needless to say, he was over the moon.
“Oh, you two!” Shangguan Yanqiu glared at them and nagged. “How could you ask your sister for a present after you’ve only met. You didn’t even give her a welcome gift.”
“Lhave prepared gifts for sure.” With a smug look on his face, Fu Qingxuan turned to Shen Xi and gloated secretively. “I have lots and lots of presents to give you. I’ll show you once we’re home. You’ll love them.”
‘The always refined Fu Qingye who never put anyone in the spot publicly gave Fu Qingxuan a look of disdain. “Are you sure?”
His gifts were silly. As if their sister would like his presents.
“She’ll love them if I say she’ll love them.” Fu Qingxuan provided an irrefutable case in point. “I have a psychic connection with our sister. Do you?”
Despite being unconvinced, Fu Qingye could not argue with that.
Shen Xi looked at Fu Qingxuan with contempt written all over her eyes. He was so childish, so she did not carry any hope for his presents.
Even with a partition in between, people on both sides could clearly hear each other’s conversation.
Listening to their exchange, Fu Qingli could not read another word as he unknowingly scrunched the paper in hand.
