Marrying a powerful man: The third master is wild and untamable

Chapter 40 Escape with Jincheng
  Seeing the conflict at home, He Biqing quickly smoothed things over: "Sister-in-law——"

Fu Jincheng interrupted her forcefully: "I have never seen a mother like my mother-in-law. She rushes to cause trouble for her own daughter, for fear that she will not be able to cope with her. Why, you picked up Shen Xiuwan?"

He Biqing babbled.

Shen Yaozu quickly smiled and said: "Brother-in-law——"

"roll."

"okay."

Fu Jincheng left two thousand yuan to the Shen family and left the ancestral home overnight.

Tonight is New Year's Eve. In the alley, the lights of every house are reflected on the window glass, and the laughter of family reunions can be faintly heard.

Shen Xiuwan was grabbed by Fu Jincheng's wrist and followed him quickly towards the entrance of the alley.

With the death of her grandfather, the old ancestral house turned into shackles and a cage, with the intention of dragging her into the abyss of decay and asking her to become a numb woman like her mother.

But now, that house was far behind her.

She looked at Fu Jincheng. In the deep snow in the alley, the man's profile was silent and cold, but his eyebrows were like spring mountains.

She asked: "Are we going back to Yanjing overnight?"

"Ah."

"Jincheng, my mother said that a woman can't live without a man and marriage for the rest of her life."

"She lied to you."

Shen Xiuwan looked into the distance. The old town that used to be plunged into darkness at night was now flashing with lights everywhere, and brand-new cars could occasionally be seen on the road.

The times have changed.

she thinks.

Heavy snow is coming.

Shen Xiuwan followed Fu Jincheng through the winding alleys in a hurry. His palms were warm and wide. She was held tightly by him, and her heart was full of passion and joy. The chaotic snowflakes fell on her cheeks through the dim night, but she could not feel it at all. When it's cold, I just find them extra cute and warm.

Leaving home in the middle of the night was something she had never done before.

It seemed as if she was not escaping from this home, but escaping from her fate with Jincheng.

When she boarded the train bound for Yanjing, Shen Xiuwan thought that she would always remember the heavy snow tonight and her escape.

……

The train arrives at Yanjing at noon.

Adjutant Fang specially drove a car to pick him up at the station gate. When Shen Xiuwan got into the car, she found that Si Xiaotang was also there.

Si Xiaotang was sitting in the back row, wearing a brand-new felt hat, a honey-colored slit cheongsam, a pure black coat, and her lips were very red.

She held her handbag and said with concern: "There is no resurrection after death. The third young lady expresses my condolences."

Shen Xiuwan nodded slightly, not wanting to talk to her, and turned her face towards the car window.

Si Xiaotang asked: "Is the third young lady angry with me?"

"Miss Si, why should I be angry with you?"

"Because the third master wanted to accompany me, I couldn't go with you to the funeral of Mr. Shen. Later, after my affairs were over, he hurried to the south to find you. I'm sorry, I seem to have delayed your family's affairs. "

Shen Xiuwan held her hands tightly, and her heart suddenly hurt.

It turns out that the two days Jincheng was late were with Si Xiaotang.

However, she should have expected this, so why should she be sad?
  Snow was flying outside the window, and all the buildings in Yanjing were covered in white.

Shen Xiuwan suddenly thought that in the past two days in Gusu, Jincheng's kindness to her was entirely because of her grandfather's face. Of course, it was also due to his upbringing. He himself still had no love for her.

While she was thinking about it, Fu Jincheng suddenly said: "Si Xiaotang." Si Xiaotang bent his eyes: "What did the third master ask me to do?"

Fu Jincheng glanced at Shen Xiuwan's profile.

He wanted to tell her that it was because Si Xiaotang deliberately concealed the phone call that he was unable to accompany her back to her parents' home in time.

But the pride deep in his bones prevented him from taking the initiative to explain.

He became a little bored with Si Xiaotang.

Adjutant Fang reported: "Third Master, something happened at home during the two days you went to the south."

"how?"

Adjutant Fang hesitated for a moment and then said: "First, the Second Young Mistress peeked into Miss Fifth's diary and found out that Miss Fifth liked a poor student from the university next door and went on several dates with him, so she revealed the matter to my wife. Naturally, Mrs. If he didn’t agree, he put the fifth lady in solitary confinement and didn’t allow her to go out.”

Fu Jincheng commented coldly: "Fu Yunzhu has become very capable."

Shen Xiuwan asked with concern: "What kind of person is that student?"

Adjutant Fang shook his head: "Madam, they didn't ask in detail, but with his background, his love with Miss Fifth is destined to be fruitless. It doesn't matter what kind of person he is."

Shen Xiuwan hesitated: "Jincheng, you often say that young people should practice free love and oppose arranged marriages by family elders. Now that Yunzhu is pursuing her own happiness, why do you oppose it?"

Silence fell in the car.

Shen Xiuwan secretly thought that perhaps their so-called free love was only practiced within the same class. Although it was in the name of freedom, it still required that they should be matched.

She said politely: "Jincheng, maybe you should meet that student first."

Fu Jincheng didn't agree, but he didn't object either.

Si Xiaotang's eyes wandered over the couple, his face not very pretty.

She remembered that the third master was still indifferent to Shen Xiuwan a few days ago. Why did their relationship with her change after they returned to the south?

The car drove to the front of Fu's mansion.

Si Xiaotang was about to go in together when Fu Jincheng reached out and stopped him in front of the car door.

Si Xiaotang was sitting in the car, one of his high heels already on the ground.

She raised her head: "Third Master?"

Fu Jincheng: "Don't Miss Si have her own home?"

Si Xiaotang's pupils narrowed: "Third Master, what do you mean by this?"

"Literally." Fu Jincheng didn't want to tangle with her anymore, "Miss Si, I have a family."

Si Xiaotang was speechless, Mingyan's face was full of disbelief.

This man had obviously been whispering sweet words to her a few days ago, and he seemed to love her to the core, but after just a few days, he seemed to have changed into a different person, so cold and terrifying!
  Talking about having a family, it wasn’t the first day he had a family!
  She laughed: "Third Master, are you angry with me because of that phone call? Just because Shen Xiuwan's grandfather died and I didn't notify you in time, you are going to do this to me?! But I have already explained to you that when I hung up I forgot about it when I dropped the phone, I was busy picking out new dresses from magazines, and I forgot about Grandpa Shen Xiuwan, can you blame me?"

Fu Jincheng ordered Adjutant Fang: "Send her away."

Shen Xiuwan had already returned to Fu's mansion and was unaware of the love-hate entanglement between Fu Jincheng and Si Xiaotang.

She first greeted Mrs. Fu and answered a few greetings.

Cen Qingru handed her a telegram: "Grandpa sent it from the northwest."

Shen Xiuwan opened it, and inside it was Grandpa Fu's deepest condolences to her grandfather, and also attached a brief letter, asking Jincheng if she would accompany her back to the south to see her grandfather off for the last time. If not, he should treat her well the next time they meet. Beat him up.

Fu Jincheng happened to come in. Shen Xiuwan handed him the telegram, tilted her head and said with a smile: "Jincheng, how do you think you should respond to this?"

Fu Jincheng had read the telegram, and his face was as ugly as ever and a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything harsh to Shen Xiuwan.
