Qu Ning felt strange, why was she suddenly in Fu Xuan's arms?
She stepped back, kept her distance from him, cleared her throat and said, "Mr. Fu, you didn't come here to cook for us, did you?"
Fu Xuan had gradually gotten used to Qu Ning's always aloof behavior, and said calmly: "You can understand it this way."
The rain became heavier.
The pouring rain washed away the haystacks on the roof.
Qu Ning prayed in her heart that there would be no rain. If it did, she might not be able to sleep peacefully tonight.
Fu Xuan saw her worry and comforted her: "Don't worry, the rain won't be heavy tonight."
Qu Ning wondered: "But the village chief said..."
Fu Xuan raised his eyes: "Do you believe the village chief or me?"
Qu Ning choked up: "..." Can I say that I don't believe you...
Although she didn't say a word of disbelief, the expression on her face said so.
Sometimes it was difficult for her to hide her thoughts, as it was too easy for Fu Xuan to see through.
The food was about to be cooked. Fu Xuan rolled up his sleeves, poured in oil, and put on the food. He was very familiar with the movements. He seemed to do these things in the kitchen often.
Qu Ning held her chin and wondered: "Mr. Fu, have you specifically learned cooking?"
Fu Xuan answered her while cooking: "Cooking is actually a very simple thing. As long as you do it with your heart, you will do it well and it won't be difficult."
Qu Ning smiled and said, "It's always easier said than done."
Fu Xuan raised his eyebrows: "Are you not convinced?"
"No~" Qu Ning bent down and added another handful of firewood, "I want to say that Mr. Fu is so versatile. He can not only make money to support the family, but also cook to support the family. I have earned the top ten good husbands."
At this moment, Qu Ning's mouth was as sweet as eating honey.
Fu Xuan loved to hear every word he said.
Fu Xuan's lips curled up into a smile: "Then will you cherish it?"
Qu Ning said without hesitation: "Of course I will~"
How could Fu Xuan not understand the implication of Qu Ning's words? She just cares about his money and wants to please him. In fact, she has no sincerity at all.
Although he knew it well, Fu Xuan would not say it clearly.
He won't bring up topics that make him uncomfortable.
The first dish was served, and after it was put on the plate, Fu Xuan continued to fry the second dish. His sleeves rolled up a little loosely, and he called Qu Ninglai in a low voice: "Come here."
Qu Ning: "Suppose you?"
"Yes." Fu Xuan's eyes indicated: "Pull up your sleeves for me."
Qu Ning's eyes fell on his sleeves, which were loose and about to fall off.
For Qu Ning, this was just a small matter, so he stepped forward to help him.
She walked to Fu Xuan and reached out to help him roll up his cuffs. Fu Xuan's arms were very strong, as if they were full of strength anytime and anywhere, and the veins on his forearms were clearly visible.
She rolled up the cuffs little by little, and her fingernails lightly scratched his arm. Fu Xuan thought in his mind and looked at her close at hand with his eyes lowered.
Almost done, Fu Xuan opened his thin lips and said, "Qu Ning."
Qu Ning didn't even raise his head: "Huh?"
Fu Xuan said with emotion: "Actually, it would be nice for the two of us to live in the countryside like this for the rest of our lives."
Qu Ning had already rolled up her sleeves. She raised her head and looked at him: "Do you like life in the country very much?"
Fu Xuan: "I don't like it."
Qu Ning snorted: "Then you still..."
"But I like you." His expression was rarely so serious.
"what about me?"
Fu Suiyan's voice came from behind.
Fu Suiyan came over and asked, "You two live here, what about me? Have you forgotten me?"
Qu Ning quickly put it aside and ignored the matter: "I didn't say that, it was your father who said it. It has nothing to do with me."
Fu Suiyan looked at Fu Xuan: "Dad?"
Fu Xuan was very calm: "I haven't considered you for the time being, sorry."
Look, how open and honest, without any cover-up.
Qu Ning couldn't stop laughing, and stretched out her hand to push Fu Xuan gently: "Suisui is your biological son, are you so mean to your biological son?!"
Fu Xuan raised his eyebrows, not quite agreeing with it and said: "Is this considered mean?"
"I understand." Fu Suiyan turned around, walked back to the original small bench, sat down, and continued to rest his chin with his hands: "I know dad must have his reasons for this arrangement."
Qu Ning: "..."
What a good boy, he knows how to pua himself.
After the food was ready, the family of three went to the table to eat. Fu Xuan was there, and Fu Suiyan was very honest, eating in a proper manner, not talking much, and only saying what he asked.
The simple room, the simple table, the simple tableware, none of them fit Fu Xuan's identity.
But he was comfortable and casual, and even gave Qu Ning some food: "Try this."
Qu Ning did not refuse Fu Xuan's offer to pick up the food. She ate it in front of him and then praised him: "It's very delicious. It tastes great. Mr. Fu, you really impressed me."
Fu Xuan: "You are getting better and better at flattering me."
"What do you mean by flattery? I'm talking from the bottom of my heart!" Qu Ning corrected.
Fu Xuan smiled and said nothing, and continued to serve Qu Ning.
While Fu Suiyan was eating the white rice in the bowl, he looked resentfully at Fu Xuan serving Qu Ning, neither of whom had a share.
Fu Suiyan: "The real heartbreak is not the loud noise, but the endless silence."
Fu Xuan looked at him sideways: "Then are you silent?"
Fu Suiyan pointed to the stir-fried pork dish: "Dad, I want to eat that."
Fu Xuan asked him: "Are you still disappointed?"
Fu Suiyan grinned: "My heart is warm."
Qu Ning puffed out and almost spit out the rice!
After dinner, the sky was completely dark and the rain outside was much lighter. Fortunately, the haystacks held up and there was no rain.
Qu Ning also lamented: "This cabin looks shabby, but I didn't expect it to withstand such a heavy rain."
Fu Xuan put away the dishes and came out: "If we didn't go to Yanlin to repair the leak in advance and fix the leak in the roof, we might be busy now."
Qu Ning:?
It turns out that it was repaired by Fu Xuanrang...
With Fu Xuan here tonight, Fu Suiyan rarely appeared next to Qu Ning. After there was no thunder, he went into the house early.
Qu Ning had taken a nap and was not sleepy at all. She made a stool and placed it at the door, then invited Fu Xuan: "Mr. Fu, come and sit for a while?"
Fu Xuan put down his sleeves and came over: "Want to talk to me?"
"How rare is this situation? Don't you want to talk to me?" Qu Ning winked at him.
Fu Xuan came over and sat down with a fond smile on his lips: "What do you want to talk about?"
Qu Ning confessed: "I want to talk about Suisui's mother."
Although the rain has slowed down, it continues to fall. It is wet under the steps, and the wooden house has been soaked in water for too long, giving it a rotten smell.
Qu Ning had already adapted to the smell. She turned to look at Fu Xuan: "Can we talk to her?"
Fu Xuan nodded: "Okay."
Qu Ning thought she had to convince Fu Xuan to agree to discuss this topic.
She asked the most curious question: "Is Suisui's mother still there?"
