Song Fengwan’s fingers moved lightly on the keyboard. She prepared to pack her things and leave after typing this final report.

“Still writing?”

“Let me finish this part.”

While speaking, Fu Chen had already walked behind her. He looked down from above and naturally placed his hands on both sides of her arms. He lowered his head and kissed the top of her head. “How much longer?”

“Soon.” Song Fengwan felt very uncomfortable with someone staring at her. Moreover, his actions made her feel restless and unable to calm down. The last sentence was written intermittently.

This person behind her didn’t stop. He either touched her arm or touched her hair. Even if he didn’t do anything overboard, he was disturbing her thoughts.

“Stay away from me.”

“Can’t I touch you?” Fu Chen was speechless. Am I being rejected by my little wife?

“You keep making me unable to write the last part well.”

“What are you writing?”

Only then did Fu Chen look at the computer screen seriously.

… Prosperity, strength, democracy, civilization, harmony, and positive energy.

Political homework report.

Fu Chen looked at her baring her fangs and brandishing her claws. If he disturbed her again, this young lady would probably pounce over and bite him. He smiled and rubbed the top of her head. “Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore. When you’re done writing, remember to save it. You can continue when we get home.”

After he left, Song Fengwan’s efficiency obviously increased, and she turned off the computer in just five minutes.

Fu Chen raised his eyebrows. So fast?

When they walked out of the study, they happened to see Xu Yuanfei standing in the corridor on the phone.

“… Yes, I’m not going back. I have something to do.”

Then Song Fengwan’s thoughts went astray again.

When Xu Yuanfei saw the two of them, she nodded embarrassedly in greeting.

She didn’t expect that Jing Hanchuan would do this either. He actually got Fu Chen and the others to go home directly? They had a good relationship, so it naturally didn’t matter what they said to each other. But she was embarrassed.

Fu Chen held Song Fengwan’s hand and walked past her, heading straight downstairs.

At this moment, Xu Yuanfei hung up and felt even more embarrassed.

“She’s not going home tonight?” Song Fengwan looked at Fu Chen doubtfully.

A certain someone shrugged. “How would I know?”

Song Fengwan was speechless. This progress is really fast.

At this moment, the big shot of the Jing family and Sheng Aiyi were in the Pear Garden.

The manager received a notice that she wanted to replace all of Yin Changge’s roles. He was a little surprised. “Boss, are you pulling her out of all the plays?”

In the circle, people were used to calling each other boss, so the manager called Sheng Aiyi respectfully.

“Yes.”

“This…” The manager seemed to be in a difficult position.

“Just say it directly.”

“It’s like this. Changge is a little popular now, and many people have seen her videos online. They all come to the garden to watch the shows because of her, so if we remove her, I’m afraid it will affect…” our revenue.

Sheng Aiyi raised her slender eyebrows slightly and looked at him seriously. “Beijing opera has never been used to make money, nor is it used to charm the world. It’s fine as long as she does her best. Her ambition isn’t here. She has to take care of many things at the same time. I’m afraid she won’t be able to invest too much energy and enthusiasm even if we leave her the roles.

“The probability of her making a mistake in her following performances isn’t low, right?”

The laymen watched the show. Sheng Aiyi didn’t remove her on a whim, but she had really made too many mistakes recently. Instead of this, it was better not to perform.

The manager wasn’t an opera fan and only specialized in managing the garden. He couldn’t hear any flaws in Yin Changge’s performance, but Sheng Aiyi was very persistent about this. She really felt that Yin Changge’s performance was too exaggerated and perfunctory. She had probably kept this in mind since long ago.

“Alright, I’ll arrange it.”

As soon as Yin Changge came out of the Jing residence and got into a taxi to go to the garden, she received a notice from the manager telling her that all her performances had been canceled.

She was utterly dumbfounded.

Although Sheng Aiyi was very strict when teaching, she was usually very easy to talk to. She didn’t expect her to be so decisive this time.

Without thinking, she immediately called Sheng Aiyi. “Master, I was wrong. I…”

“Your master isn’t here.” It was a certain big shot who spoke, and his voice was cold.

“…”

“I heard you went to my house today?”

Yin Changge had been waiting at their house, so the Jing family members had naturally asked when the two of them would return in private.

But when she heard this, she inevitably panicked, and her back felt slightly cold. “I just… wanted to find my master.”

“Don’t come to our house in the future.” With that, a certain big shot hung up.

Actually, the Jing family members didn’t tell him about Yin Changge and Xu Yuanfei at all. A certain big shot purely thought that she was looking for Sheng Aiyi at this time and was definitely pretending to be pitiful. He couldn’t stand such things the most, so he simply told her not to come.

But when Yin Changge heard this, she inevitably thought of Xu Yuanfei.

Did she complain behind my back?

Is that why Master is so ruthless this time?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, but she had nowhere to vent her anger. When she returned to the Pear Garden, her dressing table had already been cleaned up. The girl who had once fought with her for the leading role had already moved her things to her spot.

Everyone seemed to have gone out to practice. There was no one in the dressing room, and her things had been thrown aside.

She took a deep breath and walked over. She glanced at the dressing table, picked up the red paint on the table, and gritted her teeth.

Is she so eager to sit in my position?

You’re not worthy!

On another side…

Sheng Aiyi received a call from Jing Hanchuan and said that he wanted to introduce someone to them and asked them to come back early. She immediately rushed home from the Pear Garden.

It was already dinner time, but Xu Yuanfei didn’t bring anything over. She kept feeling that it was too rude, so she cooked dinner.

Jing Hanchuan was leaning against the kitchen door and staring at her handling the ingredients neatly. His smile didn’t fade.

When Sheng Aiyi returned, she saw the dishes on the table and knew that her son didn’t cook them.

“Hanchuan, you’ve made a mistake. Little Xu finally came here. How could you let her cook?” Sheng Aiyi was happy.

After all…

This meal was cooked by her future daughter-in-law.

“I wanted to make dinner myself. I just don’t know if it suits your taste.” Xu Yuanfei was nervous.

“Don’t stand there. Sit down first.” Sheng Aiyi patted the seat beside her.

Her meaning was obvious…

She wanted to sit next to Xu Yuanfei and talk intimately with her.

But a certain someone held Xu Yuanfei’s hand in front of her parents and forcefully pulled her to his side.

Sheng Aiyi was dumbfounded, and the Jing family members were cramping up with laughter. Sixth Master’s strong possessiveness is too scary.

Xu Yuanfei was even more embarrassed. Under the teasing gazes of the Jing parents, she sat quietly beside Jing Hanchuan. She was like a cooked prawn, completely red.

She struggled a little and tried to break free from Jing Hanchuan’s grip. But a certain someone was stronger than her, and she didn’t dare to use too much force, so she could only let him hold her hand.

Then she felt a tingling sensation in her palm.

Jing Hanchuan was gesturing in her palm. When his fingertips brushed past, her heart trembled, but she still had to smile at the two people opposite her. She hated Jing Hanchuan to the core.

Why is he teasing me at such a serious time?

Sheng Aiyi coughed twice. “Erm… Hanchuan, this meal…

“Aren’t you going to explain it to us?”

After all, there had to be an explanation for a woman cooking in their home.

Jing Hanchuan’s expression was as usual.

“My girlfriend, Xu Yuanfei. We’re dating. I’m introducing her to you today.”

Xu Yuanfei was so embarrassed.

He didn’t beat around the bush at all. So direct?

Sheng Aiyi had always felt that her son wasn’t like her husband. After all, Jing Zuolin was a very simple and crude person. But Jing Hanchuan wasn’t. He was full of tricks. Although he did things neatly, he was also devious, so he lacked the vigorous and decisive actions of a certain big shot.

But after hearing what he said, she was certain that…

He was his son.

Back then, this fellow had rushed to her house with all kinds of betrothal gifts and told her parents that he wanted to marry her.

This hadn’t been a marriage proposal at all, but a kidnapping!

At the time, her parents had been scared out of their wits and thought that a bandit leader had come to rob them.

A certain big shot coughed twice and suddenly reached out to pour wine for Xu Yuanfei. She immediately broke free from Jing Hanchuan’s restraints and got up to take the wine bottle. “I’ll do it.”

“You’re drinking?” Jing Hanchuan raised his eyebrows. “I’ll go get you some milk.”

“A little is fine.” This was the first time she was having a meal with the Jing parents, so it was normal to toast them.

“Have a drink with me.” A certain big shot raised his wine glass. It was just a small wine glass, and there wasn’t much alcohol in it. It would be gone after taking a sip.

“Uncle, let me toast you.” Xu Yuanfei kept standing and holding her wine glass very low.

“I should be the one to toast you. Your courage is commendable.”

Jing Hanchuan’s face darkened, and Sheng Aiyi laughed out loud.
