Chapter 1778: Why Not?
Shen Fanxing was shocked as well. “I… I mean… why did you give me so many houses?”
“The Bo family doesn’t lack these houses!” Bo Jinchuan’s deep voice sounded as his eyes landed on the bunch of keys in Shen Fanxing’s hand. She hurriedly stuffed them into her pocket.
Qi Mohan would give her a random reason later and she would accept it.
It would be a waste not to.
Qi Mohan glanced at Bo Jinchuan disdainfully. With his hands in his pockets, he raised his chin and said,
“Are you stupid? I’m so busy every day. Who knows when I won’t be by your side? What if you get bullied one day and run away from home in a fit of anger? Or if he finds a mistress and kicks you out, won’t you have a place to stay?”
“…”
“…”
“…”
The entire living room fell silent for a few seconds.
…
After that, Old Lady Bo, Lou Ruoyi, and Xu Qingzhi nodded repeatedly. “That’s right! That’s right. Young Master Qi is indeed thoughtful.”
Bo Jinchuan’s face darkened again. If Shen Fanxing hadn’t hugged his arm tightly, he would have jumped up and given Qi Mohan a good beating.
“Return the key to him!” Bo Jinchuan glared at her.
Shen Fanxing hugged the keys tightly and shook her head at him in protest.
Only a fool would give up so many houses for nothing.
“Shen Fanxing!”
Shen Fanxing said firmly, “No. He’s right. Who knows what will happen in the future? If you really bring a mistress to force me to abdicate or if you get tired of me and bully me, I might leave home anytime.”
Bo Jinchuan’s face tensed and Shen Fanxing could vaguely see the bulging veins on his forehead.
Her attitude softened. “It’s a waste not to…”
“I can give it to you if you want it.”
“You can give it to me, but it’s a waste not to take his. If you give me a hundred yuan, I’ll have two hundred yuan…”
The old lady nodded and said, “Jingchuan, I’m not as domineering as you. The grandson of the Qi family is far-sighted and thoughtful. He’s giving it to Fanxing, not you. He hasn’t spent your money yet. Why do you care if Fanxing wants it or not? If I were Fanxing, I would want it too! Look at me. Didn’t we swear to never leave each other when we got married back then? Look at us now. Aren’t we divorced? You’re swearing that you won’t betray Fanxing. Who knows what will happen in the next few decades?”
Bo Jinchuan frowned deeply.
“I don’t know how.”
The old lady emphasized, “The current you won’t.”
Lou Ruoyi nodded and said, “That’s right. Although you’re my son, look at you. You shouted at Fanxing again, didn’t you? You’re revealing your scumbag side bit by bit. Who knows what immoral things you’ll do in the future?”
Bo Jinchuan was speechless.
What kind of mother was she?
“Fanxing, ignore him! I strongly suggest you accept it!”
Xu Qingzhi nodded and said, “I agree!”
Shen Fanxing tightened her grip on the keys again.
Bo Jinchuan knew that he couldn’t reconcile with Shen Fanxing. He turned to Qi Mohan and said, “Take your things and get lost. Otherwise, you’ll ruin everything!”
Qi Mohan rolled his eyes and took out a black card. “This is for you too! It’s universal. There’s no limit. Spend as much as you want!”
Shen Fanxing’s eyes lit up and she reached out to take it. However, Bo Jinchuan snatched it away halfway.
With a crisp sound, the bank card was split in half.
Shen Fanxing’s eyes quivered and she turned to glare at Bo Jinchuan.
Bo Jinchuan threw the two halves of the bank card aside. Just as he turned his head, he saw Shen Fanxing’s red eyes. She was about to cry.
He paused. “I can give you the house and the money!”
“What’s yours is mine. What he gave me is extra! How can it be the same?!”
“I’ll give you ten times more!”
“Even if you give me a hundred times more, it’s still mine!”
Seeing that Shen Fanxing had really suffered, Bo Jinchuan was at a loss.
Qi Mohan looked at Bo Jinchuan gloatingly and smiled.
How could he still be Qi Mohan?
Everything has its consequences. Your retribution is me!
Hahahaha…
I won’t let you live too comfortably in this life.
“Tsk tsk tsk… Look, you made your wife cry. You’re indeed a scumbag!”
Lou Ruoyi shook her head and looked at Bo Jinchuan in disdain.
The old lady snorted coldly. “You’re already bullying her like this. Who knows what will happen in the future!”
Xu Qingzhi was dying of laughter.
This childish man was really being taken advantage of.
Shen Fanxing suddenly stood up with the keys in her arms.
Bo Jinchuan asked, “What are you doing?”
“Run away from home!”
Shen Fanxing was good at what she learned.
Qi Mohan blinked. “I’ll send you off.”
“Get lost!”
Bo Jinchuan couldn’t help but stand up and shout at Qi Mohan.
The person’s heart trembled.
Everyone thought that he was about to explode, but he grabbed Shen Fanxing’s waist and refused to let her go.
“Let go of me!”
“I was wrong. Calm down and be careful of the two little things in your stomach.”
“How much milk powder and clothes do we have to buy for them?”
“I’ve prepared the best for them.”
“If I have that money, I will save a lot of money.”
The more Shen Fanxing thought about it, the more she felt that she had suffered a loss. After doing business for so long, she felt that the lack of money was too painful.
Bo Jinchuan knew that Shen Fanxing had gone overboard. He took a deep breath and looked up at Qi Mohan. “Get her the card.”
Qi Mohan snorted. “I’m very busy.”
Bo Jinchuan’s face was tense and Shen Fanxing could even hear his teeth grinding.
She touched the bunch of keys in her arms and her lips curled. She felt that it was enough.
At the very least, he wouldn’t stop her from accepting these houses.
“I’m hungry.”
The moment Shen Fanxing said that, Bo Jinchuan pulled her towards the kitchen.
“Then hurry up and eat.”
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips and allowed him to pull her away.
Then, she turned around and winked at the people in the living room with a victorious smile.
Seeing this, the old lady and Lou Ruoyi almost burst out laughing.
This girl was simply too smart.
That brat Jinchuan was no match for Fanxing.
She hadn’t even cried and he was already in such a panic.
Everyone said that he was smart and intelligent. From the looks of it, his IQ had plummeted when he met Fanxing.
Fortunately, they knew Fanxing’s character. Otherwise, who knew what this kid would do?
The few of them stood up and walked towards the dining room.
The old lady patted Qi Mohan’s arm and said, “Grandson of the Qi family, come and play often in the future!”
Qi Mohan followed the old lady and looked down at the old man. “I have an extraordinary relationship with your granddaughter-in-law. Look at how afraid your grandson is of me. Aren’t you worried that I’ll snatch Fanxing away?”
The old lady laughed. “How long have you known Fanxing?”
“Almost seven years.”
The old lady nodded. “Fanxing has known Jinchuan for less than a year.”
Qi Mohan frowned.
“If Fanxing can be with you, there are too many opportunities in seven years. You’re an outstanding man. It’s definitely easy for a woman to fall for you. However, the key is whether she will fall for you. Perhaps it’s because your feelings for her are not love. Otherwise, would you allow the woman you like to have the chance to run into someone else’s arms?”
The old lady said with a smile, as if she had seen through everything.
Qi Mohan pursed his lips and frowned even more.
The old lady glanced at him and raised an eyebrow. “Perhaps you haven’t met the person you can’t let go of. Once you feel different about her, don’t hesitate to act immediately. Don’t do anything you’ll regret.”
Qi Mohan asked, “What different feeling?”
The old lady stopped in her tracks and her smile widened when she saw Bo Jinchuan protecting Fanxing carefully.
“For example, I have an inexplicable possessiveness towards her. I can’t bear to see her smile at anyone, nor can I bear to see her cry. If she’s happy, you’ll be happy too. If she cries, you’ll be sadder than her… I’ve lived for so many years and I’m also a failure in love. Love is too difficult to figure out. As for how you feel in the end, it’s up to you to decide.”
Qi Mohan frowned. “I have everything you said…”
The old lady shook her head and said, “You can’t understand now. When the time comes, you’ll hurt another woman’s heart.”
“There won’t be another woman.”
“That’s not up to you.”
Seeing Qi Mohan’s stubborn look, the old lady sighed secretly. “Forget it. You’ll know when you really meet him. Even if you’re not trustworthy, I still believe in my granddaughter-in-law. Everyone in the world knows that she loves Jinchuan.”
Qi Mohan pursed his lips. These words hurt his heart.
However, the old lady sighed.
“Don’t think that Jinchuan is obedient to Fanxing now. He seems like a man who dotes on women, but in reality, it’s also because Fanxing is too obedient to him. It’s hard to say what kind of personality he will have when he’s spoiled. We have to make him nervous at all times so that he can remember how good Fanxing is. If he dares to bully Fanxing, he will regret it.”
Qi Mohan raised an eyebrow. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss.
It took him a long time to react. “So, you invited me here every day to increase your grandson’s nervousness?”
The old lady smiled. “If I didn’t invite you, wouldn’t you be pestering Fanxing too?”
To be precise, she was pestering Jing Chuan.
Qi Mohan cursed in his heart. This old lady looked calm, but she was quite cunning.
So he was the mediator between her grandson and Fanxing. She had to help them increase their relationship.
However, no one else in the world would dare to do such a thing.
Looking at how careful Bo Jinchuan was with Shen Fanxing…
F*ck!
Initially, dinner was meant to create trouble for Bo Jinchuan, but all she saw was him trying his best to display his affection for Shen Fanxing.
After dinner, she left with a long face.
Shen Fanxing was pestered by Bo Jinchuan and didn’t have the time to chat with him. Seeing that he had left in a bad mood, she couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Wasn’t she more capable previously?
Why did he suddenly change his style?
—
The building next door was still under construction. Shen Fanxing had gone for a walk with Xu Qingzhi today. The area was huge, but the construction team was still digging and expanding.
Xu Qingzhi shook her head and sighed. “It seems like she’s going to compete with Bo Jinchuan.”
Shen Fanxing raised an eyebrow. Given the scale of the project, it would take a year or two.
He said that it was to take care of her. She wondered who the mistress would be.
She would just be a neighbor. When the time came, she and Qi Mohan could still be companions.
She felt at ease seeing Qi Mohan happy.
She really hoped that the girl would appear sooner.
“Hey Fanxing, how did the two of you meet? Why haven’t I heard you mention this person before? He’s so devoted to you and gave you so many houses in one go two days ago. You’ve met all the rich people in the world.”
Shen Fanxing smirked and said, “He risked his life to become a tycoon.”
Xu Qingzhi paused and said, “Fanxing, how did you spend the past few years in Country F? There was no news from you during those years unless you took the initiative to contact me. Moreover, you never said what you were doing in Country F… You know this man called Qi Mohan. You lived with him for the past few years and just now, you said that this man lived a life of drinking blood. Then, what exactly were you doing together?”
Shen Fanxing sighed and tightened her jacket.
“Back then, I was abandoned overseas and didn’t have anything to eat or drink. I was cheated when I was looking for a job and was sold to an island. One day, Qi Mohan led a group of people to raid that island. There was a fight and only the two of us were left on the island. He was injured and I saved him. In the end, he brought me away and saved me. I had nothing on me back then, so I stayed with him. After all, he had good food… I didn’t have to worry about starving to death…”
Xu Qingzhi’s mouth fell open in shock. She had once thought about how difficult it was for her to be overseas alone. She had thought about too many possibilities.
Thinking that she might be washing dishes in the restaurant, thinking that she had to work several jobs a day, thinking that she wouldn’t be full even if she scrimped and saved.
Unexpectedly, she had been sold and almost died.
“Fanxing…” she called softly, her heart aching.
Shen Fanxing smiled and said, “Now that I think about it, since we’re already here, those things in the past aren’t that scary anymore. But it’s strange. Every time I talk about how I saved Qi Mohan, Qi Mohan would stomp his feet in anger. Is it that embarrassing to be saved by me? Why can’t I say it?”
Shen Fanxing’s tone was indeed relaxed. Compared to her happiness now, her past could be offset.
However, her last question had indeed been troubling her.
“Then you’ve been with him since then? Is that why you’ve been drinking blood?”
