Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Old Shen and Madam Yun were not as keen and open to marrying Shen Xi off so soon as Shangguan Yangiu and Fu Handing were. Besides, there was no telling where Shen Xi was going to live after marriage.
To this day, Shen Xi never had a chance to check out Li Mansion. She had her plans about staying in Li Mansion.
“How is it far ahead?” Shangguan Yanqiu looked at her and said, “You’re in China and expect your parents to want to stay with you. If you think we’re a bother to you when you and Li Yuan tie the knot, we can just live next door.”
There was no way she would be letting go of her daughter in the next few years. Shangguan Yanqiu wanted nothing more than to be Shen Xi’s shadow and see her every day for peace of mind. Whatever that came next was for later to decide.
“Xixi, just listen to your mom.” Fu Handing concurred. He was not in a hurry, but he would love to stay with his daughter. His wife felt she owed it to her daughter and wanted to make it up to Shen Xi for the decades of lost time. Fu Handing could hardly see Shangguan Yanqiu leaving Shen Xi’s side for the
next few years.
Of course, Shen Xi was going to comply. “Oh.” Shen Xi was nodding when suddenly she felt light in the arms. The scarf was taken away from her. She lifted her head and met Fu Qingli’s long and deep eyes.
“Is it done? Fu Qingli asked her.
Taken aback, Shen Xi was puzzled by his question. Still, she replied accordingly. “Almost.”
Fu Qingli gave a nod and sat next to her while urging, “Pick up the pace.”
Shen Xi had removed the needle and was onto straightening out the tassels. The scarf was ready in less than a few minutes.
Having been keeping watch, Fu Qingli inquired when she held the scarf up. “Done?”
Shen Xi bobbed her head. “Yes.”
“Let me see.” Fu Qingli grabbed the scarf and wrapped it around his neck. He then asked, “Does it suit me?”
Shen Xi cleared her throat. “This is for Fu Qingxuan.”
It was hard to make heads or tails of Fu Qingli’s reply. “I’m the eldest.”
Furrowing her brows, Shen Xi was no clearer to his point.
“He ranks behind me.” Fu Qingli turned to his parents. “Mom, Dad, I need to head back to the office. Xixi, I can’t see you off later. Have a safe journey.”
Fu Qingli took off with the scarf before Shen Xi could say anything and left her, Fu Handing, and Shangguan Yanqiu staring at each other. What was she supposed to do now? How was she going to explain to Fu Qingxuan? Fu Qingli seized the scarf and ran away!
Letting out a cough, Fu Handing was at a loss for words. “Um… Your eldest brother… just give the scarf to him.”
Shangguan Yangiu chimed in. “I don’t need one. Think of it as giving mine to him.”
She was taken by surprise as Qingli had never pulled such a stunt before. It appeared that Qingli may not say it out loud, but he valued a gift from Xixi.
With the intention to check on the progress of his scarf, Fu Qingxuan excitedly walked out of the kitchen and yelled, “Xixi, is it ready? Is it ready yet?”
Shen Xi took a glance at Fu Qingxuan, then at the leftover yarn. Yet, there was no scarf in sight. She cleared her throat.
Shangguan Yangiu interrupted. “I told your sister to give the scarf to your eldest brother. There’s a snowstorm out there. He’d be cold.”
The smile on Fu Qingxuan’s face froze as he turned toward the door with raging eyes. He hissed through clenched teeth. “Fu Qingli!”
Fu Qingxuan did not buy Mom’s story. Qingli must have stolen his scarf.
Xixi promised that the first scarf would be his. Fu Qingxuan chose the color and the yarn. What right did Qingli have to take his stuff? This was crossing the line!
He wanted one. Fu Qingxuan really wanted the scarf.
Seeing that Fu Qingxuan was about to lose it, Shen Xi quickly remarked to stop him from going nuts. “The next one’s for you. I’ll knit you a scarf in no time.”
Fu Qingxuan’s eyes were red. Tears threatened to fall since he was robbed of a scarf and happiness. Biting his lip, he stared at Shen Xi and spoke gruffly. “I’m in no rush.”
Anger would not solve anything as Qingli had already snatched the scarf. He simply could not put Xixi through trouble because of this. What if she strained herself?
Hearing the commotion, Fu Qingye came out and heard about Qingli’s act. He said, “Going by order, it should be my turn next.”
Fu Qingxuan glared at him. “If we’re going by order, Mom and Dad should be first.”
Fu Qingye averted the question by turning on his heel. “‘ll check the pot. We don’t want the food to burn.”
Amid sniffles, Fu Qingxuan sorrowfully sat next to Shen Xi with his head hung low. He toyed with the yarn in his hand while feeling too upset to say anything.
The poor thing. Thinking about the d*mn Fu Qingli, Shen Xi drew close and gave Fu Qingxuan a suggestion. “Since he took it, you can take it back when he comes home.”
Over the past few days, Shen Xi no longer carried a grudge toward Fu Qingli anymore. However, his behavior today was uncalled for.
Still, the scene of Fu Qingli stealing and running away was hilarious and childish. Fu Qingli was obviously afraid of Fu Qingxuan kicking up a fuss, so he looked for an excuse to make a getaway.
Giving it much thought, Fu Qingxuan tightened his fists. “I’l give it a go.”
Nevertheless, Fu Qingxuan quickly felt discouraged. Qingli would protect the scarf at all costs from any possible attack from Fu Qingxuan now that the former had the scarf in hand.
Shangguan Yangiu and Fu Handing watched the interaction between the siblings as they helplessly exchanged looks, shook their heads, and smiled.
Li Yuan made his way back in the afternoon.
After lunch, the pair got ready to return to their motherland.
They packed up their suitcases only to realize that Toffeecito was nowhere to be found.
The housekeeper came forward, having heard them calling for Toffeecito. “Madam, Young Lady, Toffeecito went off with Young Master Qingli.”
Shen Xi, “…”
Oh, no, he did not. Fu Qingli kidnapped Toffeecito.
Fu Qingxuan finally got a good reason to jump on Fu Qingli’s case. In full-blown fury, he dialed Fu Qingli’s number and got into position to tell him off. “Qingli, you’ve gone too far this time. I can’t take it anymore. How dare you abduct Toffeecito. Where did you take it?”
Fu Qingli deliberately took Toffeecito away, for sure!
Fu Qingli answered, “I believe I told you that Toffeecito left with me.”
Fu Qingxuan was about to refute when Fu Qingye raised his phone to show the message on their family group chat. Fu Qingli sent a text message prior to leaving. However, they were too busy then to check their phones.
