Chapter 533 Trap, Colluding Together
Old Master Fu had seen them being intimate, so Song Fengwan naturally didn’t have the mood to continue. The two of them dawdled in the study for a while before going downstairs.
Fu Sinian had already picked up Yu Manxi from work and returned. The two of them were wearing black and white suits, looking smart, energetic, and capable.
“Can we eat now?” Although Huai Sheng had drunk most of the bubble tea, he was still a little hungry.
“Sure. I’ll go to the kitchen to help serve the food,” Old Madam Fu said. “Yuxiu isn’t coming?” Fu Chen asked. The company wasn’t working during the Qingming holiday, so he should have returned to the old residence for dinner.
“He called and said that the Sun family came back a few days ago to pay respects to their ancestors and sweep their graves. He went to their house.” Ever since Sun Rui’s incident, Old Madam Fu had no good impression of the Sun family.
“After all, he’s Yuxiu’s biological uncle. He hasn’t been back for a long time, so it’s only right for Yuxiu to go over and have a meal with him.
“I heard that Sun Rui has found a boyfriend overseas and is already at the point of discussing marriage. It’s good if she really gets married, but we’ll still have to give her a gift when the time comes.”
Song Fengwan had almost forgotten about this family and only listened quietly.
Yu Manxi didn’t know anything about what they were discussing. But since they were Fu Yuxiu’s uncle and relatives, why hadn’t she seen them, and why had no one in the Fu family mentioned them?
While washing her hands before the meal, she asked Fu Sinian, “What’s wrong with the Sun family? Why do I feel that the atmosphere at home is strange when this family is mentioned?”
“They’re Second Aunt-in-Law’s maternal family. The family has a daughter who liked Third Uncle. She climbed into his bed but was thrown out by him. Later on, she went to Yuncheng to avoid the limelight. She even had sex with her adopted older brother, and it caused a huge commotion.”
“With her brother…” Yu Manxi couldn’t accept it. “This family is really strange.”
“But Second Aunt felt that Third Uncle was too ruthless to Sun Rui previously, so she felt resentful and a little hostile…”
“No wonder I keep feeling that the atmosphere is a little strange every time Second Aunt comes back.”
Yu Manxi had long wanted to ask, but she felt that it was too gossipy to ask.
“This family will probably come visit. If you meet them, be careful and stay away from them.”
Fu Sinian didn’t like to gossip about others behind their backs. But since the Sun family would come, it was inevitable that they would interact. He was worried that Yu Manxi didn’t know this family’s background and would treat them as good people.
“Got it.” Yu Manxi understood. No wonder Third Uncle and Wanwan were silent when this family was mentioned just now.

After dinner, Song Fengwan accompanied Old Madam Fu to watch TV for a while before Fu Chen sent her back to the school. Along the way, he heard her complain about Qiao Xiyan.
“Cousin wasn’t like this before. Why is he suddenly asking me to eat with him? “Could it be that after living for thirty years, he suddenly realized that eating alone is empty and lonely? “I feel like I’m back in elementary school and middle school. There’s a parent watching me at all times, and I don’t have any freedom.
Fu Chen smiled. “Is Miss Tang not free to eat with him recently?”
“So what? He was alone before.”
“Don’t you think these two are very strange lately?”
“Things have always been strange between them,” Song Fengwan said casually.
“Cousin lost her when he was young, and she almost fell into the river and lost her life. Later, when Big Sister Tang went to Nanjiang to attend Little Chi’s full moon banquet, he lost her again at the airport…
“It seems he forgot her again at the entrance of the museum.
“They’ve long had a feud.”
At the thought of her younger brother, Song Fengwan hurriedly took out her phone. From the corner of his eye, Fu Chen saw that her phone’s wallpaper wasn’t a family photo but an artistic photo of Little Mr. Yan when he was one month old.
This girl seems to have never used my photo as her wallpaper.
“This grudge will probably last forever.”
“Huh? What did you say?” Song Fengwan was distracted and didn’t hear him clearly.
“Do you want your cousin to find a partner and get married soon?” Fu Chen didn’t mention what had happened before.
“Of course. There’s only Uncle and Cousin at home. It’s quite deserted. If he marries and has a child, it’ll be lively in the future. But I think it’s more likely that Cousin will marry his pile of stupid stones!”
He stayed at home all day and didn’t go out to work. How could he have the chance to get to know the opposite sex?
Fu Chen chuckled. “Maybe soon.”
Song Fengwan thought that he was talking nonsense. While chatting on WeChat with her mother, she casually nodded. “There’s no traffic jam today, right? I have a video call with my mom at eight.”
Fu Chen frowned. This girl doesn’t want to video call with Aunt Yun. She wants to see her brother.
“Do you have plans for tomorrow’s holiday?”
“No, I’m sleeping in at school.” It was the Qingming Festival tomorrow. Song Fengwan was far away from home, and she wouldn’t go back to worship her ancestors from so far away, so she would stay at the school.
“I’m accompanying my parents to worship tomorrow, so I’ll only be free at night. I’ll invite you out then. Be good and stay at school. Don’t run around.”
“I know. Drive quickly.”
Fu Chen was helpless. That little thing from the Yan family doesn’t even know how to speak yet, but he already knows that there’s a difference between men and women. He giggles at Wanwan but ignores me when he sees me.
What will happen when this little bad thing grows up?
***
The next day, Qingming…
It was rare for there not to be a drizzle at this time of year but a gentle breeze and warmth.
Fu Sinian had gone out early in the morning and bought some things for worship. Nowadays, it wasn’t recommended to burn things, so he bought some tea, snacks, and wine. When he returned, he happened to see Fu Yuxiu getting out of a taxi with slightly messy hair.
He ran into the compound in a panic. “Yuxiu!” Fu Sinian drove over to him, lowered the car window, and honked.
When Fu Yuxiu turned his head, his face was pale, and his legs almost went weak from fright.
Fu Sinian narrowed his eyes and parked the car beside him. He unlocked the car and let him get into the front passenger seat. “Did you drink too much last night? You still smell of alcohol now.”
“Okay.” Fu Yuxiu nodded silently and tightened his grip on his clothes, looking very uneasy. Fu Sinian raised his eyebrows and sized him up from the corner of his eye. I’m not Third Uncle. Is there a need to be so flustered sitting beside me?
“Go back, take a shower, and change your clothes. We’ll go to the cemetery to pay our respects together.” This matter had long been settled. After all, their parents were out of town and couldn’t make it back in time, so the matter of the worship had fallen on them.
“I know.” This was why Fu Yuxiu had rushed back.
“Did anything happen at the Sun residence yesterday?” Fu Sinian saw the panic on his face and felt that something was amiss.
“I’m fine. I just drank too much and feel a little dizzy now!” Fu Yuxiu tugged at his hair, still flustered. When he arrived at the old Fu residence and got out of the car, he saw Fu Chen standing at the door. Fu Chen’s eyes were as calm as water, but they swept past him lightly, as if they could see through him and everything became exposed. “Third Uncle.”
“Mhm,” Fu Chen responded. His gaze swept past him and landed on a red spot on his collar. His eyes suddenly narrowed, but he didn’t say anything and let him run into the house.
“Third Uncle, there’s something wrong with him.” Fu Sinian parked the car, turned off the engine, and walked toward Fu Chen. “He didn’t feel like talking along the way, and he was so nervous when he saw me. When I bumped into him at the gates, I called out to him, but his face turned pale.”
“Heh-“Fu Chen sneered and didn’t say anything. At this moment, Old Madam Fu had already walked out and was about to check the offerings Fu Sinian had bought, interrupting the conversation.
Fu Chen licked the inside of his cheek with the tip of his tongue. Yesterday, the Sun family held a Hongmen Banquet. This silly boy was caught off guard and fell into someone else’s trap.
After all, he wasn’t Fu Yuxiu’s parent and didn’t have the time and energy to get someone to monitor him all day. The Sun family and his uncle wanted to drag him down, and they had set up an ambush at their house. He couldn’t protect himself against them at all.
But Fu Chen didn’t expect them to bring him home and do such a dirty thing. How despicable.
“Third Master…” Shi Fang whispered into his ear. “I’ve checked. Jiang Fengya did appear in the Sun residence yesterday and left this morning “He actually tricked his biological nephew. This uncle is really f*cking shameless!”
“Isn’t this just wanting to climb directly into his bed?”
Fu Chen fiddled with the bracelet in his hand. “He reeked of alcohol. Fu Yuxiu doesn’t have the guts to act rashly after drinking. I’ve seen him drunk before. He falls asleep right away. If he gets so drunk that he loses consciousness, I don’t think he has the ability to do that!”
“You mean…”
“It was a trap to begin with.”
“But after the incident, there was no sound. Logically speaking, even if they were lying on the same bed, she could use this to blackmail… “I’m afraid she and the Sun family are waiting for the right time.
“Eldest Young Master is getting married in a few days. Will they want to cause trouble then?”
“Then, she’s courting death. Second Sister-in-Law won’t agree, and it will even offend Eldest Brother’s family. If she only has this bit of brain, she can only be used by others.” Fu Chen’s eyes were very dark, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
“The Sun family is really shameless. They actually used Jiang Fengya! Isn’t this trying to embarrass Second Master and his family?”
“They’re colluding together. It’s not clear who’s using who. I hope their family doesn’t raise a venomous snake. Before it bites the enemy, it will poison them to death first.” Fu Chen flicked his prayer beads and smiled knowingly.
The Sun family did business, and they were devious!
But Jiang Fengya could send her biological father and foster father to prison together. She was really vicious!
It was really hard to say who was using who.
