Xu Yi knew. His words hurt his mother’s heart.

“Mom, can’t I decide for my love life? If you have any preference for the daughters of other families, you can adopt them if you like.”

Lin Xiang was speechless at her son’s suggestion.

She stood petrified, facing her son. After a moment of staring contest with her son, she left fuming.

Fang Qing watched the drama happening before her eyes with glassy stares. After Lin Xiang left, she lowered her eyes and stared at her finger, unsure of the right word to say to Xu Yi.

Deep inside her heart, she was screaming, ” This is too dramatic!”

“Get yourself discharged. We will meet my grandpa today.”

Fang Qing blinked and hesitantly stood. But she remained standing on the spot. “This is so sudden. I’m not ready.”

“What do you want to prepare?”

Although Xu Yi had no meaning behind his words, the words reminded her of her current situation.

Yea, she was a bast*rd. She had nothing she could prepare.

How about being mentally prepared?

But he certainly would not take that into consideration. He might even find her incompetent.

She lowered her head in silence. A few moments passed before she forced a wry smile on her face. “Nothing. Let’s go.”

Xu Yi frowned. He never got too close to any girls, and it was the same with Fang Qing. He couldn’t understand the reason for Fang Qing to be upset.

When they were on the way to meet old Mr. Xu, Fang Qing kept to herself at the far end of the passenger seat. She had her eyes on the sceneries outside the car, with her chin propped on one hand while another hand holding on to her shoulder on the other side. With her huddled-up position, she was obviously cautious of her surrounding.

Xu Yi looked away from her and said, “Be confident. I don’t care about your family, but you’re now with me.”

“What?”

She was lost in her own thought that she was momentarily puzzled by Xu Yi’s words.

Their eyes met. Fang Qing was staring at the eyes as dark as obsidian, staring back at her. His words carried a power that intimidated her.

He explained, “You don’t look like you’re going to be a bride soon with that sunken face and depressed look of yours. Do you know that some women would gloat over a few simple words from me for a long time?”

“And you are my fiancée.”

Her identity as Xu Yi’s fiancée alone carried so much power.

Fang Qing’s pupils immediately constricted. She felt like her heart exploded, shooting out beautiful fireworks. She suppressed the throbbing in the depths of her heart and nodded. “I’m sorry, Mr. Xu. I’ll take note.”

Xu Yi frowned. “You sounded distant.”

If she kept calling him Mr. Xu, his grandpa would not even believe her to be his girlfriend, not to mention his fiancée.

“What? What do you mean by I sounded distant?”

Xu Yi turned to face her, intensity burning in his eyes. “Call me hubby.”

Stunned by his request, Fang Qing blinked in disbelief. “What?” she uttered again in shock.

“My dear fiancée, I courted you in the past, and we parted ways after some misunderstanding. We got back together now that we’ve cleared the misunderstanding. I proposed, and you said yes. So, aren’t you being too distant if you call me Mr. Xu?”

“You’re right.”

Fang Qing found his explanation logical after a moment of thought and nodded in agreement. But calling him hubby…

She subconsciously caressed her cheek. A frown appeared between her brows as she convinced herself that this was all fake, and she was playing the part of being his fiancée. If actors could call another person their father, calling Xu Yi her husband was nothing in comparison.

“I will take note, hubby.”

Xu Yi raised his brows. “So much excitement?”

“Yes. Let’s tone down. I will always, always remember this, hubby.”

“Good wifey.”

He spoke with the same calm tone the entire journey, even when he called her his wife.

But Fang Qing’s little heart was beating wildly from the waves of emotions she was experiencing.

She kept repeating to herself that it was all not true…

But her heart melted when he called her his wife…

They reached the private hospital Old Mr. Xu was in soon after.

The private hospital was well-equipped with the latest medical equipment and the best medical team available. It was definitely built to serve the rich and the powerful.

Xu Yi headed straight for his grandfather’s ward.

Fang Qing followed closely from behind from the moment she got out of the car and walked alongside Ling Lin instead of Xu Yi.

She even stood behind Xu Yi with Ling Lin in the elevator.

But when the door of the elevator opened, Xu Yi reached out and held her hand. The warmth of his hand flowed like a current into Fang Qing’s hand, so warm that Fang Qing could feel the sensation of his arms on hers.

Ling Lin kneaded his temples with his hand in disbelief.

His young master’s action was certainly out of his expectation.

“Come closer.”

Fang Qing continuously nodded her head as she strengthened her grip on Xu Yi’s big palm.
