Fu Jingyao was radiating wealth from head to toe.
Lin Xi: …
She really hated people who flaunted their wealth.
However, if she really had to pay, she wouldn’t be able to afford it.
Lin Xi pondered for a second and walked up to the man.
Fu Jingyao reflexively took a step back, his expression slightly flustered, “Lin Xi, what are you doing?”
Lin Xi pulled down her collar, turning her head to the side, “Here, let you bite back.”
As long as she touched Fu Jingyao, she could gain purple energy.
Fu Jingyao biting her and her biting Fu Jingyao had the same result.
In the end, she was the one who gained.
She just pretended to be bitten by a big pig’s hoof.
Fu Jingyao stood there stunned.
From his angle, he could see Lin Xi’s fair neck and her graceful figure.
Fu Jingyao looked away, his ears even redder, “Lin Xi, put your clothes on; this is Grandpa and Grandma’s house.”
Lin Xi felt inexplicable; she moved closer, “Hurry up, after you bite, I need to go to sleep; I have to set up my stall tomorrow.”
Fu Jingyao didn’t dare look at her, “I don’t bite people.”
Lin Xi silently complained.
This wasn’t allowed, that wasn’t allowed.
Men’s hearts were like needles at the bottom of the sea; they were so hard to guess.
Lin Xi shrugged, “Fu Jingyao, what exactly do you want?”
Hearing her call his name for the first time, Fu Jingyao felt a strange feeling in his heart.
He calmed down and said nonchalantly, “I haven’t decided yet; I’ll let yoy owe me one.”
Lin Xi readily agreed, “Okay, except for murder, arson, and setting fire to the mountains, I will unconditionally do one thing for you.”
Later, she regretted making this promise immensely.
At this moment, Lin Xi just wanted to sleep; she waved her hand, “Goodbye.”
Fu Jingyao was also tired; he followed her back to the villa.
Not far away, in a pile of flowers, there was a rustling sound; Lin Xi glanced over, “What’s going on? Is there a mouse?”
She rushed over to see Zhang Wenxiu and Fu Jianhua bowing their heads, looking embarrassed.
Lin Xi: …
Fu Jingyao: …
Grandpa and Grandma were still very energetic; they learned to follow people.
Liu, the butler, stepped forward in a timely manner, “The roses in the garden are in full bloom; I invited the old master and mistress to come out to admire the moon and flowers. The two of them were so engrossed in watching the flowers that they were about to pick a rose to give to Miss Lin, welcoming her first visit to Shanshui Villa.”
The fourth rule of a butler’s professional ethics was to step in and resolve the situation and take the blame at critical moments.
Zhang Wenxiu quickly picked a rose and handed it to Lin Xi, “Yes, yes, the butler said it right; the moonlight is beautiful tonight, the flowers are beautiful, and the person is even more beautiful.”
“Thank you, Grandma.”
Lin Xi chuckled awkwardly and took the rose.
The group returned to the villa; Zhang Wenxiu brought her more food and drinks, and Lin Xi was instantly no longer sleepy.
Seeing the right moment, Zhang Wenxiu smiled, “Jingyao, take Lin Xi to get the marriage license tomorrow.”
Fu Jingyao was clearly stunned, “Grandma, I have company matters tomorrow…”
Fu Jianhua interrupted him, “I’ve already arranged it; tomorrow is an auspicious day; it’s tomorrow, no excuses, I’ll handle company matters.”
Fu Jingyao sighed, “Grandpa, we’re still young; this is too rushed.”
“Young? What’s young?”
Fu Jianhua counted on his fingers, “You’re 27 years old this year; in the blink of an eye you’ll be thirty, and then in a few years you’ll be almost forty; you haven’t even dated, let alone had a girlfriend.”
“Look at your Uncle Li’s grandson; he’s already in kindergarten.”
“Haha.” Lin Xi couldn’t help but laugh, “Sorry, please continue.”
Fu Jianhua huffed and glared, “If it weren’t for Master Xuan Kong and me arranging this marriage, you would be a bachelor for life.”
Fu Jingyao’s face was cold and he couldn’t retort.
He was clearly only a little over twenty-five; in his grandfather’s mouth, he became a forty-year-old man.
Zhang Wenxiu clutched her chest and gasped for breath, “Jingyao, you know, Grandma’s health isn’t good; I don’t have much time left…”
“My biggest wish in this life… is to see you get married and have children…”
Fu Jianhua continued, “Lin Xi doesn’t have any objections; why do you have so much to say?”
Zhang Wenxiu made the final decision, “Tomorrow morning, you two go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get your marriage license!”
The next day, Lin Xi sat in front of the dressing table…
Zhang Wenxiu held a bunch of bottles and jars, applying layer after layer to her face.
Zhang Wenxiu kept praising her, “My granddaughter-in-law’s skin is so good, and her features are beautiful; the baby you and Jingyao have will definitely be beautiful too; Grandma’s greatest wish is…”
Lin Xi used spiritual energy to block her ears.
The Fu family was enthusiastic, but this constant nagging was making her ears calloused.
Zhang Wenxiu put down the lipstick, “Okay.”
Lin Xi looked at herself in the mirror; her lips were red and her teeth were white, her brows and eyes were like a painting, adding a touch of serenity.
Grandma had specially found her a moonlight-white cheongsam and a simple updo.
Lin Xi stood there, giving off an aura of a cold and beautiful moonlight.
Fu Jingyao saw her like this and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Wenxiu smiled so much her mouth wouldn’t close, “How’s Grandma’s handiwork? Is your wife beautiful?”
Fu Jingyao looked away and replied casually, “Pretty good.”
“Alright, let’s go.”
Lin Xi grabbed his wrist and rushed into the car, “Hurry up and get it done; I promised the grandpas and grandmas that I would set up my stall today; I can’t be late.”
She had worked so hard to establish her image as a master; she couldn’t ruin it.
Fu Jingyao sat in the driver’s seat, “Okay, I’ll drive faster.”
They didn’t speak along the way.
They entered the Civil Affairs Bureau, followed the staff’s instructions, and filled out forms and took photos.
“Get closer, come on, smile, cheese.”
“Great, here are your marriage certificates, please keep them.”
“Wish you both a happy marriage and have many children.”
Walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Fu Jingyao looked at the red booklet in his hand, his expression dazed.
He was married.
Fu Jingyao had never thought about what marriage was like and what a wife was like.
He didn’t reject Lin Xi’s closeness; this might be what people called a fateful encounter, a lifetime bond.
Fu Jingyao rubbed his temples and dismissed these messy thoughts.
Now that he was married, he had to take responsibility.
They had no emotional foundation.
In the future, he would treat Lin Xi as his sister.
Fu Jingyao moved his lips, “I’m going to the company; where are you going?”
Lin Xi put away her red booklet, “I’m going to Antique Street to set up my stall.”
Fu Jingyao frowned, taking out a black card for her, “If you need money, tell me.”
Lin Xi’s fingers just touched the card when a loud thunderclap echoed in the sky.
Boom!
Lin Xi instinctively covered her head.
Ah ah ah! Her terrible constitution.
Fu Jingyao looked up at the sky, “Why did it suddenly turn dark?”
Lin Xi chuckled, “The heavens are playing tricks.”
Boom! Boom!!
A thick bolt of lightning flashed past, seemingly warning her.
Lin Xi quickly refused Fu Jingyao, “Quickly put away your black card; I don’t set up my stall for money, but to guide the masses; this is a rule of my sect.”
Woo woo, the legendary black card, an unlimited-spending black card, she wanted it so much…
Fu Jingyao saw her longing gaze and asked again, “You really don’t want it?”
Lin Xi retracted her hand and said firmly, “I don’t want it; money I earn myself is more fragrant.”
“Alright.” Fu Jingyao put the card away.
Lin Xi’s identity was special; she had her own beliefs and sect rules.
He didn’t understand, but he respected her wishes.
Fu Jingyao opened the car door, “I’ll drive you there.”
“No need.” Lin Xi waved her hand, “Antique Street is very close from here; I’ll walk.”
Fu Jingyao would send her; otherwise, she would be the center of gossip; how could she maintain the mystique of a master?
“Wait, Lin Xi.”
Fu Jingyao took out his phone, “Let’s add contact information; call me after you finish your stall; Grandma said we must go home for dinner tonight.”
Lin Xi nodded, “I’ll scan yours, you scan mine?”
Fu Jingyao: “I’ll scan yours.”
Lin Xi accepted his friend request and turned to leave, “See you tonight.”
Fu Jingyao’s profile picture was all black, and his nickname was Fu Jingyao; she didn’t need to change it.
Meanwhile, Fu Jingyao glanced at Lin Xi’s profile picture: five oddly shaped little paper figures.
Nickname: Fortune-telling, Ghost-catching, Feng Shui, Find Master Lin.
Fu Jingyao chuckled.
He added a note to Lin Xi’s contact: Master Lin.
