Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth-Chapter 272 Back to Fu Residence

"You’re not forcing her into this, are you?" Su Wanxin furrowed her brows. "She doesn’t even like Shi Li, how could she agree to the engagement?"

"Ever seen anyone getting forced into an engagement or marriage?"

"..." Su Wanxin, seeing his righteous demeanor, truly found it hard to slap him with reality, but still had to remind him of the facts. "Me."

Fu Shihan fell silent for a bit, then decided to pretend he hadn’t heard her and continued, "The engagement party is next weekend. You should rest well these days and go there to clear your mind."

"You sure it’s about clearing my mind and not about making a scene?"

With the Sheng Family and Fu Family both attending, what was her presence supposed to mean?

"Sure."

Fu Shihan had decided to bring Su Wanxin along for a stroll there when the time came.

Su Wanxin was forced by him to rest at home for a whole week, before she finally managed to coax him into allowing her to go to work.

Wednesday, 9:30 AM.

It had been nearly a month since Su Wanxin last showed up, and under Fu Shihan’s accompaniment, she appeared at Su’s Securities. Fu Shihan chatted briefly with Chen Lei and even met Su Yan, who was sitting next to Su Wanxin. After seeing that the other couldn’t compare to him in any aspect, he left reassured.

Confused by his inexplicable gaze, Su Yan asked Su Wanxin what God Fu meant by that, after which Su Wanxin thought for a moment and answered.

"He might be nearsighted and have astigmatism, he sees everyone like that."

"...Oh."

Su Wanxin returned to her work position. Since she had also been sick and hospitalized before, her colleagues didn’t pay much attention and just reminded her to rest well.

Soon, the day of Sheng Qian’s engagement party arrived.

Su Wanxin really didn’t plan on joining the buzz, but unexpectedly, Sheng Qian came to fetch her personally.

Inside the study, Su Wanxin sat behind the computer desk, bemused at the person walking in. Sheng Qian looked at her with a cheery smile and said, "Do me a favor, will you?"

"..."

"From now on, we’re both going to be Fu Family daughters-in-law, so can you support me just for today?"

"What spell did you fall under, did Shi Li hex you?"

Su Wanxin hadn’t seen her for a while and thought she’d be depressed about the engagement since she knew Sheng Qian liked Fu Shihan, not Shi Li.

Yet now, she seemed surprisingly happy.

"Um... more or less, money makes the world go ’round," Sheng Qian awkwardly replied.

"Speak human."

"It’s like he’s keeping me, splashing money on my face, and I couldn’t withstand it."

Sheng Qian was at a loss for words, glanced at the watch on her wrist, urged,

"Ah, I’ll tell you more when we have time later, hurry and change. It’ll be too late soon."

"I don’t want to go." ƒrēenovelkiss.com

"You can’t not go." Sheng Qian looked at her seriously, with deep sentiment. "We’re going to be comrades in the future, you need to help me."

Actually, Sheng Qian was quite afraid of Fu Hongru and Li Mo. She hadn’t felt it before, but thinking about how Li Mo would soon become her mother-in-law made her uncomfortable and fearful.

Hearing about how Su Wanxin was good at pacifying Li Mo, Sheng Qian thought of learning some tricks from her.

With a headache, Su Wanxin rubbed her temples and got up with a bitter smile.

She knew that once she appeared today, she would face certain people and be in a very awkward situation.

Fu Hongru, Li Mo, Li Xuanqing, all of them would be there today. Her attending was like hitting her head against the wall.

But facing Sheng Qian like this, she found it hard to outright refuse.

With mixed feelings, she changed her clothes and makeup, and followed Sheng Qian out.

But what she never expected was that the venue for the engagement party was on Binjiang Road...

At the Fu Residence.
