Chapter 712: Prefer Qingli Over Me

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“How could you eat something tasty behind our backs?” Racing down the stairs, Fu Jungiu approached Fu Qingli to give him a good smack. “You punk! Have you no shame?”
Taking it like a champ, Fu Qingli glanced at her with a straight face. “Aunt Jungiu, don’t you want to watch your figure?”
Fu Jungiu slapped the back of Fu Qingli’s head while gritting her teeth. “Watch your mouth. I’ve never heard you talk so much.”
The b*stard kept mum when it was an appropriate time to talk but speak unnecessarily when it was not his place to. He was asking for it!
Shen Xi had seen Fu Qingli get his *ss kicked. Not only was he unable to fight back, but he received another round of beating for talking back. Barely able to hold the laughter in, Shen Xi lowered her head and pretended she saw nothing while getting the kick of Fu Qingli being beaten.
Fu Qingye’s eyes brimmed with tears as he watched the enjoyable scene. The house had never been filled with so much laughter.
It was a much better situation when Dad was around. However, since Qingnli took over the household after Dad went missing, the air at home only grew dreary. There was basically no more activity in the house after ten o’clock at night.
Mom slept early at eight o’clock while Aunt Jungiu must have her beauty sleep. Fu Qingye, Qingli, and Xuan barely had a few days together in a year.
It was not like the family could ever get a chance to enjoy fast food in the wee hours of the morning, Qingli saw this type of food as garbage. Anyone who brought home this food was asking for a whooping.
With the spicy fragrant filling every inch of the room, the aroma drew everyone’s appetites, especially Shen Xi’s. She had bland food for the past two days due to a throat infection. The smell only made her drool.
Placing a bowl of hot water in front of Shen Xi, Fu Qingli looked at her and said, “This is yours.”
Shen Xi bit her lip and glanced at him before poking the bowl with a chopstick. This was a jab at her, for sure!
Bearing a smile, Shangguan Yanqiu tenderly uttered, “Tll make you anything you want once you’re all better. Bear with it for now.”
Snuffling, Shen Xi pouted. “Oh.”
Nothing would happen if she ate some now. As a doctor, Shen Xi knew her health like the back of her hand. They were being too cautious. She was not that fragile.
Fu Qingxuan petted her head like a pet. “Be good now. You can have it when you’re not sick anymore.”
Shen Xi put the fangs out and glared at him.
Withdrawing his arm, Fu Qingxuan leaned close and whispered, “I’ll sneak some to you later.”
Shen Xi shot him an angry look. It was all his fault. She could have enjoyed the food out in the open if he said she was all better. They did not have to go through all the hassle now.
Toffeecito had been catching catnaps since its arrival here. The jet lag might have gotten to it. At that moment, Toffeecito made its way over and swirled around before jumping onto Fu Qingli’s lap. It meowed for attention and snuggled up against his arms.
“Where did the cat come from?” Fu Jungiu’s eyes popped open. Oh, gawd. Oh, gawd. It was a marvel! Her eldest nephew, who was never fond of pets, allowed a cat to have its way with him. Needless to say, she could tell that it must be Xixi’s cat. Her nephew was accepting the good with the bad that came
with Xixi.
“Aunt Junqiu, this is my Toffeecito. My parents and I aren’t at home, so I brought it along.” Shen Xi explained. It was easy to bring Toffeecito since they took the Fu family’s private jet.
Fu Juniu drew near and kneeled by Fu Qingli to tease Toffeecito. “Toffeecito, come to your aunt. Don’t hang out with the poker-faced iceberg. Don’t you feel cold?”
Shen Xi was caught in stitches. She wanted to give Aunt Junqiu the thumbs up for the amazing description. Fu Qingli was exactly as Aunt Junqiu described.
Toffeecito shied away into Fu Qingli’s embrace, burying its head into his clothes as if it was shy to face Fu Junqiu. The cat even meowed in distress.
Feeling upset, Fu Junqiu turned to Shen Xi. “What’s up with Toffeecito, Xixi? Why does it prefer Qingli over me?”
Shen Xi shook her head, not knowing the answer to her question. She guessed Fu Qingli might be the cat’s chosen one. Speaking of which, it was very strange because she could not wrap her head around the reason why Toffeecito took to Fu Qingli. Toffeecito clung to him like glue.
After taking in the hurt and defeat, Fu Junqiu regained her spirits and poked at Toffeecito’s exposed bum. “Toffeecito, don’t be shy. Come and play with me. I’ll give you some treats.”
She then asked Shen Xi, “What does it like to eat?”
The firm look on Fu Junqiu’s face made Shen Xi hold her tongue about Toffeecito being a tough crowd to please. Shen Xi might as well let Fu Junqiu try out. “Toffeecito’s not fussy. I’ll go grab some of its food.”
Fu Qingxuan pulled her back before she could stand up. “Tl get it, my dear sister. I know where it is.”
He soon returned with a bag of stuff consisting of catnip, canned food, cat wand, and Toffeecito’s favorite — toy sparrow.
Toffeecito must be hungry after the long nap as it did not take long for it to be tricked out of Fu Qingli’s arms. Toffeecito went on to feast on the canned food.
Meanwhile, the self-heating hotpot was ready. They were greeted by aromatic flavors and appetizing chili oil the moment they removed the lid.
Thanks to a throat infection, Shen Xi was put on a watchlist. She could only look at the food without touching it. Anything she craved had to be washed in waters before she could have it. What was she supposed to taste? All she could do was breathe in the aromatic fragrance. It was such a pitiful sight.
In the end, Shangguan Yanqiu took the bait and sent a piece of beef straight to Shen Xi’s mouth. “Just one.”
With eyes lit up, Shen Xi nodded and sank her teeth in. Amid chewing, she murmured, “That’s the stuff. It’s delicious.”
Fu Qingxuan looked around and gave her a piece of tripe, but Fu Qingli glared at him before the meat was successfully given away. Fu Qingxuan ate it himself and mumbled, “Xixi’s throat is not that sore.”
These words had no effect on everyone else. However, Shen Xi gave Fu Qingxuan a dirty look. He was one to talk. Had he not told Fu Qingli that her throat was inflamed, she would not have to eat all the heavily diluted food.
Turning his head away, Fu Qingxuan acted as if nothing happened and added. “As a doctor, my advice is to have bland food for faster recovery.”
Fu Qingye and Fu Handing exchanged glances and chuckled.
Li Yuan observed his fair lady with affectionate eyes. It was not too long ago when she was worried about what to do during her return to the Fu family. Yet now, she settled in better than anyone else. It was like she was never absent in the family as they got along well, happily, and cozily..
