Chapter 72: Overwhelmed by Jealousy

Through his black shirt, she could clearly hear his powerful heartbeat.

"I can walk on my own," Feng Yu murmured softly in his arms.

Fu Qianchen ignored her. The little one in his arms was so delicate, and there was a sweet smell on her like that of milk candies.

His eyes darkened a bit, looking somewhat obscure.

"If you were so tired, why didn't you ask me for help?" Fu Qianchen said.

"I don't want you to fall out with that uncle. Besides, it's my own business. That Feng Yayin is nothing to me. Just wait and see," Feng Yu said with a smile on her lips.

This little rascal rarely asked him for help. It wasn't entirely for the sake of her pride. She actually considered this aspect.

Looking at Mu Li, he even felt a bit sorry for him. He only had that Feng Yayin around him, who was always scheming against him.

Fu Qianchen lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. "I trust you."

"But if you can't solve something, tell me."

Feng Yu was in a great mood. Although she knew that Mu Li had helped Feng Yayin, she didn't know if Fu Qianchen knew about it, nor did she know if there was anything between Fu Qianchen and Feng Yayin. So she never asked.

"I thought you would blame me for not helping you," Fu Qianchen said as he placed Feng Yu on the seat and then served her some soup.

"Your eldest sister once saved Mu Li's life. He owes her three promises."

"Saved his life?"

Feng Yu looked at him in surprise. "So Uncle Mu Li didn't help her because he likes her?"

Fu Qianchen stared into her bright eyes and said in a deep voice, "I'm not sure about that."

Feng Yu's long lashes fluttered slightly. She knew about Fu Qianchen's past. He had pretended to be ill on purpose, just to bide his time.

But even so, there were still people who refused to let him go. Did they want his life?

Who on earth was so cruel?

"How did Feng Yayin save Mu Li?" Feng Yu asked.

From what she knew about Feng Yayin, that woman would never do anything that might cause her any loss.

Since childhood, she would stay far away from scissors, for fear of hurting herself.

Would such a cautious person really risk her life to save someone?

When it came to the events thirteen years ago, Fu Qianchen's eyes darkened.

It was when he had a sudden illness. Mu Li had just become the heir not long ago. To help him, Mu Li secretly took a car to find Shao Ting. Who would have thought that their itinerary was exposed.

They attracted a lot of enemies and were ambushed.

Both he and Mu Li were seriously injured. In particular, Mu Li was even pushed into the river.

When he was in a coma, he vaguely seemed to hear a girl's voice. The girl was very anxious and had asked about him.

He didn't remember what happened later.

When he woke up, he was being helped back by Mu Li.

Presumably, that was when Feng Yayin saved Mu Li.

Fu Qianchen's eyes tightened. He gently stroked Feng Yu's head and said with a smile, "Why are you so concerned about Mu Li? Aren't you afraid I'll get jealous?"

Feng Yu pouted. "Mr. Fu, were you raised in a vinegar jar? Why do you like getting jealous so much?"

"You just gave me a jar of vinegar not long ago. I haven't finished it yet," Fu Qianchen said.

Feng Yu frowned. When did she ever give Fu Qianchen any vinegar?

Just as she was thinking, Fu Qianchen said, "How was your meeting with that online friend?"

When it came to Fu Geyue, Feng Yu was both shy and happy. Thinking of the misunderstanding before, she felt a bit embarrassed.

Seeing her showing such a shy look like a young girl, Fu Qianchen frowned. He wasn't in a good mood.

"It was okay. Mr. Fu, don't ask anymore. Let's eat first."

The girl's evasive attitude made Fu Qianchen even more suspicious.

Who on earth was that person that she could even call him "husband"?

Such an intimate term didn't seem to indicate an ordinary relationship.

He couldn't control himself from asking, nor could he control his emotions and calmly tolerate it.

Fu Qianchen stood up. His eyes were cold as he was about to leave.

At this moment, Feng Yu grabbed his hand. "Mr. Fu?"

Fu Qianchen's handsome face was cold. "I don't want to eat anymore."

He could tolerate everything she did, but he couldn't stand her hiding things from him while being affectionate with others.

He didn't take Mu Shiyan seriously before because the girl had no feelings for him and was extremely cold towards him.

But this time, it was different.

Her attitude, expression, and reaction were all different.

"Mrs. Fu, don't forget your identity," Fu Qianchen said coldly.

Feng Yu was completely confused. She tightly held onto Fu Qianchen's hand, not letting him go. "Mr. Fu, if you have something to say, please make it clear. I'm not a worm in your stomach. I can't guess all your thoughts. At least tell me a reason why you're angry. If anyone should be angry, it should be me!"

What should he say?

Should he say that he minded her calling someone "husband" one after another outside?

Or should he say that he was unhappy about the shyness on her face when she was thinking about that person just now?

"If there really comes a day when you get into someone else's bed, I'll even snatch you and the bed away," Fu Qianchen suddenly said, which almost made Feng Yu choke.

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Weren't they just talking about Mu Li and Feng Yayin? How did it suddenly involve her?

Just as Feng Yu was about to say something, Fu Geyue sent her a message, [Meet at the old place.]

Feng Yu immediately replied, [Got it, hubby~]

Ouch.

As soon as Feng Yu finished typing, someone bit her on the neck, leaving a mark.

Feng Yu turned around and saw the man with a mischievous smile. Then she touched her neck and said, "Mr. Fu, I'm about to go out. What are you doing?"

"Sure, go ahead," Fu Qianchen said seemingly indifferently.

Feng Yu suddenly seemed to understand something.

She tilted her little head and stared at the man who was pretending to be calm. "Mr. Fu, you don't like my online friend, do you?"

"Your online friend has nothing to do with me," Fu Qianchen sat down again and started cutting his steak.

"You haven't even met her. How do you know there's no connection?" Feng Yu said with a devilish smile on her little face. "Let me think. Since the day I met my online friend and came back, you've been acting so oddly. Could it be that you're jealous?"

She was almost certain that this man didn't know that her good friend was his younger sister.

He must have misunderstood something.

Fu Qianchen didn't say a word. Feng Yu couldn't help but laugh.

She had misunderstood Fu Geyue like this before. Now it seemed that the tables had turned.

"Mr. Fu, I'm leaving first. I won't eat here. I'll save some room for dinner with my hubby~"

Hearing the girl's sweet voice, Fu Qianchen frowned even tighter.

Just as he was about to get up, the little rascal poked her head in from outside the door and asked with a smile, "Mr. Fu, you surely wouldn't stoop to something as boring as following me, right?"
