Jiang Manxue's question immediately changed Lu Sichen's expression.

He just looked at Jiang Manxue and said nothing, but his expression clearly expressed everything.

Jiang Manxue leaned on the back of the deck and asked him: "What? Is it so difficult to answer my question? Why don't you even say a word?"

Lu Sichen's expression was sombre, and he didn't answer anything.

"Can't answer?" Jiang Manxue raised her chin slightly and continued to ask the next question.

"Okay, then I'll ask another question."

Jiang Manxue narrowed her eyes, and asked word by word: "What about your sister-in-law?"

Then, Lu Sichen's eyes trembled again.

He didn't seem to have expected that Jiang Manxue would suddenly bring up the topic of Lu Xingyu.

"Or, should I ask more bluntly?" Jiang Manxue leaned forward slightly: "How is your uncle, your sister-in-law's husband?"

After a while, Lu Sichen said in a hoarse voice, "You guessed it."

"Lu Sichen, no matter what, they are your elders and relatives, right? When you faced them, you didn't soften your heart at all."

Lu Sichen's face was tense, and his voice was very serious.

"They are not my relatives." Then, as if he was convinced of something, Lu Sichen repeated: "My relatives are only you and Xiao Ya."

Jiang Manxue didn't know how to answer his words.

After a long time, she sneered: "You use them as shields to achieve your goals. Lu Sichen, you once told me that you hate people who use unscrupulous means to achieve their goals. But since when, Even yourself has become what you hate the most?"

Lu Sichen didn't dare look up to meet Jiang Manxue's eyes.

He clasped his hands together and insisted: "No matter what you say, Manman, you can think of me anyway. I did all this for you, for us. I never thought of hurting you..."

"Never thought of hurting me." Jiang Manxue repeated these words in a murmur, "Who is the person who caused me to be hospitalized again and again? The person who made me heartbroken several times and felt ashamed Who? Who is that person who used Xiaoya to blackmail me several times? Lu Sichen, not all the harm can be erased after saying that you have difficulties and you want to protect me. "

Jiang Manxue shook her head, her eyes filled with tears.

As if extremely disappointed in the person in front of him, he let out a long sigh.

"Forget it, why am I telling you this?"

Then, Jiang Manxue bent her fingers and wiped away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes.

"I came today just to ask for a result from you. Now it seems that I already know the result. Then I will tell you clearly." Jiang Manxue lowered her voice, "You guessed right, there is A very important thing, my father put it here. But Xiao Ya didn't know about it. In fact, yesterday, the old man of the Fu family also sent someone to 'get' from me. However, those people were taken by Fu Qingye Just chased away."

Hearing what Jiang Manxue said, Lu Sichen was shocked.

"Manman, listen to me, you have to give me the things, I—"

"I can give you something." Jiang Manxue looked up at him, "But, not to you. Lu Sichen, you have to promise me a few things. If you can do it, I can cooperate with you."

Lu Sichen's face changed a few times.

He stared at Jiang Manxue's face firmly, as if he had a new understanding of the person in front of him.

"Cooperation?"

Jiang Manxue nodded, "Yes, cooperate. From now on, we will do business. The relationship between me and you is cooperation. Since you are also investigating the truth about the death of Uncle and Aunt Lu that year, and I have the same purpose, then we will cooperate. .besides……"

Jiang Manxue's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Other than that, there will be no extra affection."

Lu Sichen clenched his fingers, and after a while, he turned his red eyes slightly, and looked up at Jiang Manxue.

"Then what do you want me to do?"

Regarding this, Jiang Manxue simply said three words: "Cooperate with me."

……

When Fu Qingye stood in front of the old house, Cao Xihua was still a little surprised.

She looked behind him and asked suspiciously: "Why are you back at this time? Where is Manxue?"

Before Fu Qingye could answer, he saw Mr. Fu coming down the stairs on crutches.

"Ano is back?"

Fu Qingye nodded slightly.

Then, he patted Cao Xihua on the shoulder lightly: "Mom, you go out for a while, Grandpa and I have something to talk about."

Seeing his serious appearance, Cao Xihua couldn't help feeling a little worried.

She hesitated to speak, but was stopped by Fu Qingye's eyes.

"Then you and the old man have a good talk." Cao Xihua ordered, and took a servant out.

"Oh?" Mr. Fu couldn't help laughing as if he heard what he just said clearly. He took the lead and sat on the sofa, pointing to the seat opposite, "It seems that you have something to ask me, Ye. Come and sit down."

Fu Qingye nodded, and then gave Fu Li a glance at the side.

Fu Li immediately understood, turned around and left the old house.

"Grandpa." Fu Qingye casually picked up the teapot that the butler put on the table, and refilled old man Fu's teacup, "I have someone by my side now, you should know about it, right?"

Mr. Fu picked up the teacup without hesitation.

He blew away the heat on the upper floor, and said with a light smile, "I know. It's just a young man's play. You are still young, and grandpa doesn't interfere with emotional matters."

Then, before his lips could rest on the glass, the gesture froze.

"However, when you get married in a few years, you still have to deal with these messy relationships. Your mother doesn't urge you now, and it can be regarded as giving you a buffer time."

These words sound extraordinarily generous and conniving.

But Fu Qingye put the kettle on the table steadily.

There is a crisp 'click' sound when the bottom of the teapot touches the table.

"It's not for fun." When Fu Qingye looked up, his eyes were extremely serious and deep, "It's not as simple as playing with her. Grandpa, I love her, and I want to marry her. She will be my only wife in this life .”

Then, before Mr. Fu changed his face, Fu Qingye continued.

"I think, even though grandpa has lived at home for a long time now, he should have good hands and eyes. You know that the person next to me is Jiang Manxue? She is the daughter of the previous Jiang family, Jiang Zhengyang's family. I like her very much, grandpa, I hope you can Complete."

Mr. Fu's expression changed.

But the movements of the hands still haven't changed much.

He put the teacup on the table casually, and waved his hands indifferently.

"I said, you are still young now. Do you know what love is? Ah Ye, don't follow his old path like your father."

Then, Fu Qingye sneered: "Of course I won't be like him. After all, I will never yield to the arrangement of my family and marry another innocent woman while I love someone."

"Presumptuous!" Finally, Mr. Fu yelled angrily, and hit the ground heavily with his cane.

"Are you accusing me now of breaking them up?!"

To this, Fu Qingye did not answer.

"Grandpa, I don't want to mix up the grievances of the previous generation. Their current outcome and situation are beyond my control. They are all right, but they are not innocent. I came today just to tell you something thing."

Fu Qingye straightened his suit jacket and straightened his back.

"Jiang Manxue is someone I love and protect. I don't allow anyone to have her idea, let alone move her or hurt her. Including you."

When the last three words were spoken, Master Fu's face changed suddenly.

He threw the teacup full of boiling hot tea in front of him, and it fell at Fu Qingye's feet.

The shattered porcelain stubble and boiling hot water splashed out in an instant, and Fu Qingye's entire trouser legs collapsed.

But he didn't hide, he didn't even move.

Mr. Fu's face was livid with anger, and he pointed at him tremblingly.

"Is this the way you're talking to me?!"

Fu Qingye's demeanor and tone remained unchanged: "You know why I said this. You also know why I came here today."

With that said, Fu Qingye turned his head and glanced at the butler who was standing not far away.

"If I didn't have evidence in hand, I wouldn't have made this trip. But Grandpa, I still want to ask you."

Fu Qingye's deep peach blossom eyes, the corners of which were slightly raised, gave off a cold and sharp light when looking at people.

"Did you signal to move Jiang Manxue yourself, or did this loyal dog next to you do it privately? If you signaled it yourself, then I'm here today to call you, lest you get off I don’t know for the first time, and I will reach out to touch my person again. But if it was done by the dog next to you, then I will remind you.”

Fu Qingye's thin lips were frivolous, revealing a mean and cruel smile.

"This dog's tail is exposed. You have to lock him up so that he doesn't come out and bite people."

As he spoke, Fu Qingye turned his cold gaze around the housekeeper before withdrawing it.

Then, he straightened his suit jacket, and even gently wiped away the water stains on the trousers that had completely cooled down with his hands.

Fu Qingye frowned slightly when he accidentally touched the burn on his ankle.

But it was only for a moment.

Soon, he stood up and nodded slightly at Mr. Fu with the same posture as before.

He didn't care at all about Mr. Fu's face turning pale with anger, and he said it himself.

"That's all I want to say. Grandpa, you have a good rest, and I will come to see you next time."

After finishing speaking, Fu Qingye turned to leave.

"Stop!" But Mr. Fu suddenly knocked the ground with his cane, and shouted angrily, "Fu Qingye! How dare you talk to me like that for a woman?! Don't think that you can do it now that your wings are hardened. Unscrupulous!"

He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "I'm not dead yet! As long as I don't die, the Fu family will not be yours for a day! I can replace you at any time and find another heir!"

He pointed at Fu Qingye with trembling fingers.

"Don't you think that there are so many offshoots of the Fu family, besides you, can't you find a second heir?!"

"Oh?" Fu Qingye only slightly raised his voice when he heard the words.

He turned around, even tilted his head, and smiled at Mr. Fu.

"Since Grandpa, you want to change your heir, you can go for it. I don't care, really."

After all, he bowed slightly in a good temper.

"In short, you can do whatever you want, but don't touch my bottom line. I will also confess to you today."

When he straightened up, all the smiles on Fu Qingye's face faded away.

"My bottom line is Jiang Manxue. If you touch her, you touch me."
