?64: Chapter 63: Will Not Go Back on One’s Word 64: Chapter 63: Will Not Go Back on One’s Word A large dog came running in with its tail wagging, and Tang Xi smiled as she bent down to pat Sixteen’s head.

Auntie Song looked at the simple surroundings and wanted to say something, but, seeing the gentle smile on Tang Xi’s face, she sighed instead.

Tang Xi took out her belongings from her suitcase.

She didn’t have much; most of it was books.

Sixteen was holding a book in its mouth and looking down.

Tang Xi quickly patted the dog’s head, half crying and half laughing, “No biting, this is a very important book!”

Sixteen seemed to understand human speech, releasing the book from its mouth and whining to her for affection.

Tang Xi hadn’t expected that such a large dog could also have its cute moments.

She had only met Sixteen twice, and yet it remembered her.

It’s easy to suffer from insomnia in a strange place.

Here, Tang Xi could not sleep, feeling the unfamiliar room was filled with his scent, a cold and distant odor.

The woman turned over in her sleep and woke up from a dream.

She got out of bed and looked at the wind outside.

Once upon a time, she wouldn’t have dared to dream that she would be living here.

So close to this man.

Everything felt like a dream.

–

Early in the morning, Tang Xi woke up very early.

She went to the kitchen to help Auntie Song prepare breakfast.

Auntie Song was so surprised that she repeatedly asked her to go out and wait.

Tang Xi laughed lightly, “Back at home, I often helped Aunty with breakfast.

Two people make it quicker.”

Saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and started picking vegetables.

“Madam, if the master sees this, I’m afraid he’ll scold me,” said Auntie Song.

Tang Xi pressed her lips together slightly, “He won’t.”

Fu Tingzhou wouldn’t care about these things, especially those related to himself.

While picking vegetables, Tang Xi listened to Auntie Song talk a lot about Fu Tingzhou, including his personal preferences.

She hadn’t expected this man to be so picky with food, refusing to eat this or that.

“The master doesn’t like food that’s too spicy, nor does he favor sweets,” Auntie Song said.

Tang Xi responded with a faint “Oh,” thinking to herself how difficult he was to serve…

Auntie Song watched her skilled knife work, surprised.

She hadn’t expected Tang Xi’s culinary skills to be so good, thinking she was a lady whose hands had never been stained by spring water…

“Young mistress, your culinary skills are really good; the master will definitely be happy to eat the dishes you make,” she commented.

Tang Xi’s hand stopped cutting for a moment.

She probably wouldn’t even get to be disliked…

“Auntie Song, has he always lived here alone?” Tang Xi asked.

“Yes,” Auntie Song sighed, “besides Miss Ji coming over, almost no outsiders come to disturb him.

The master wouldn’t allow anyone else into his private domain.”

“Is Miss Ji Ji Qingtan?” Tang Xi asked.

“Don’t misunderstand, madam.

Miss Ji is the master’s sister-in-law, and the master’s elder brother, who is also the eldest young master of the Fu Family…

Last year, he got into a car accident and now has to spend his life in a wheelchair…” Auntie Song explained.

Around 7:30.

Fu Tingzhou came downstairs and entered the dining room.

Tang Xi was quietly eating breakfast, her first time sharing a morning meal with this man.

There was an indescribable feeling.

She bowed her head and ate quietly.

There was a faint expectation in her heart as she watched him pick up a dish she had made.

Her fingers clenched the chopsticks tightly.

When she saw him frown after taking a bite, the woman bit her lip.

He didn’t like it…

Perhaps he guessed it was made by her.

What was she anticipating just now?

Tang Xi quickly finished the food in her bowl, stood up, and said, “I’m off to work.”

It’s like what a wife says to her husband when she’s leaving for work in the early morning.

He is indeed her husband.

The difference is, he looks at her with disdain.

The woman changed her clothes and came to the door, a man’s voice came from behind, “I’ll pick you up after work tonight.”

She turned around, somewhat puzzled, looking at him.

“Last night, mother mentioned that I should take you shopping for a few clothes.”

Her eyes dimmed slightly, so it was because of this.

“No need, I can buy them myself.”

“Dressing so shabbily every day, as if I’m mistreating you when you flitter about in front of mother, Tang Xi, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you!” Clearly the second daughter of the Su Family, Su’s Jewelry may not be a huge enterprise, but it’s normal to buy a few clothes, yet this woman purposely wears washed-out white shirts and trousers every day, you’d think she came from the slums…

“I understand…

Actually, you don’t need to accompany me, I won’t waste your time.”

“Hmph, who knows, you might refuse me outwardly but then run to mother tonight to complain.”

Tang Xi was aware that his misunderstanding of her was profound, so she chose not to say anything more and turned to leave the place.

Longshan Villa is located in the most valuable area of Lan City, taking a taxi from here is very expensive, and it takes nearly 25 minutes to walk to the nearest subway station.

A black Rolls Royce passed by her.

Xu Ze was driving the car, “President Fu, that seems to be the madam…”

The man glanced sideways out the window, looking at the slender figure of the woman.

Soon, she walked into the subway station.

Xu Ze said, “Madam seems to take the subway often for her commutes, and it’s on the way to Lu’s and also passes by the First Hospital…

Maybe…”

He wanted to suggest taking Tang Xi along.

But seeing Fu Tingzhou’s stern expression, he didn’t dare to speak up.

The man’s voice was oppressive, “Xu Ze, when did you start caring about Tang Xi?”

“President Fu…” Xu Ze was startled, he knew well that Fu Tingzhou was not fond of Tang Xi, and hurriedly said, “I just feel that the madam seems to be a very pure and indifferent person.”

“Hmph, pure and indifferent.” The man closed his eyes, “Since you want to take her along, tell her when you leave tomorrow.”

Xu Ze’s face lit up with joy, the master has agreed.

Actually, the master is not that cold-hearted.

–

At 8:30 in the morning, the man arrived at the office.

Xu Ze handed over the information he had found yesterday.

“Sir, this is the information about Fu Chenglin you asked me to check on.

Half a month ago, he had a dispute with his classmate Tang Shiyue and injured his head.

He’s still in the hospital.

As for the madam, she has hired Attorney Chen Jinyan, but even with Chen’s involvement, it’s not easy to resolve this matter.

There was no surveillance at the scene of the brawl, and the few passersby were either friends of Tang Shiyue or friends of Fu Chenglin, each holding to their version of events.

Furthermore, Ms.

Zhang, Fu Chenglin’s mother, is now refusing mediation…”

Fu Tingzhou took the information, glanced at it, and narrowed his eyes slightly, “Tang Shiyue, what is the relationship to Tang Xi?”

He pondered these two names.

Both surnamed Tang?

He recalled the woman saying, Tang Shiyue is her brother…

but isn’t she the daughter of the Su Family?

Xu Ze said, “I’ve checked Tang Xi’s personal information.

There’s a gap that’s been deliberately erased.

All of Tang Xi’s records from eight years ago are unavailable.”

The man threw the documents on the table and ordered indifferently, “Tell Fu Jiang that we’ll let this matter slide.”

Xu Ze nodded, “Yes.”

Fu Jiang is Fu Chenglin’s father, running a technology company that barely survived several financial crises, went kneeling at Fu Yuanheng’s side crying, completely dependent on the Fu Family like it’s a towering tree, also a remote relative of Fu Tingzhou.

According to the family hierarchy, Fu Chenglin should actually call Fu Tingzhou ‘uncle’.

He had promised Tang Xi, and he would not break his word.
