Wen Qiao gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it because you're dawdling?"
Fu Nanli held her hand and said, "So how are you going to get me out?"
Wen Qiao: "We can only ask Wen Chi to lead Uncle Ji away."
"Come with me to grandma's house for morning tea."
Wen Qiao agreed to his request for some unknown reason, and asked Wen Chi to lead Uncle Ji from the kitchen to the next yard. Wen Qiao, dressed neatly, took Fu Nanli's hand and ran out.
As soon as the door to the backyard opened, I heard my uncle's voice behind me: "Aqiao?"
Wen Qiao paused and looked back.
Su Ce sent people to protect Wen Qiao near the house, and there were also people watching the courtyard at night. They knew that Fu Nanli came in last night, and they had been waiting for the young master to come out. However, they did not expect that the young master would not come out until morning.
Only then did he hurriedly report to Su Ce.
Su Ce came towards Wen Qiao and just saw her pulling Fu Nanli out.
He actually stayed the night secretly.
Su Ce felt like his own cabbages were being ruined, so he was naturally in a bad mood.
Wen Qiao felt a little guilty: "Uncle."
Fu Nanli, however, had a nonchalant expression on his face, still holding Wen Qiao's hand, which was somewhat irritating to Su Ce.
"Is Mr. Fu staying here overnight?"
Fu Nanli: “Yes.”
Wen Qiao: “No.
They said in unison, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.
Fu Nanli said calmly: "I came to look for her last night, but it was too late, so I stayed here. I didn't do anything, I just stayed here for one night."
Su Ce's eyes were slightly scrutinizing. Wen Qiao could sense that his uncle was somewhat hostile to Fu Nanli, so he explained, "I was the one who kept him here."
What else could Su Ce say
Even if he said one more word, he would seem like an unreasonable and vicious elder who was wielding a stick to separate a couple.
"Mr. Fu, please try not to stay here overnight. Qiao's mother is conservative and doesn't quite accept the idea of living together before marriage."
Wen Qiao promised: "I won't do that again."
"Then you guys should leave quickly. Your mother seems to have gotten up. Don't let her see you."
Wen Qiao took Fu Nanli's hand and walked out of the yard. It was light outside. The two walked on the foggy bluestone road, got out of the alley, and got into the car.
"Your uncle seems to be somewhat hostile to me."
Wen Qiao: "No, you think too much."
Fu Nanli raised his eyebrows slightly and did not respond.
When they arrived at Yuannan Mansion, the old lady had just got up. She couldn't believe that Fu Nanli and Wen Qiao came so early. She happily welcomed them into the house and asked the servants to prepare morning tea.
The weather was very cold, and birds were chirping on the branches. The servants prepared Shaocheng's unique morning tea. Wen Qiao took a sip of the black tea and felt warm instantly.
The old lady held the spoon gracefully and glanced at the young couple opposite her with a smile on her face. The more she looked at them, the more they looked like a perfect match.
Then he straightened his face and said, "I heard that your old man had a sudden illness and was sent to the hospital last night?"
Before Fu Nanli could stop her, the old lady told him what happened last night.
Wen Qiao's heart skipped a beat. No wonder she always felt that something was wrong with him last night. He seemed very sad and, for the first time in his life, wanted to stay overnight at her place.
Then she reached out and shook his hand under the table.
Fu Nanli shook his hand back and said to the old lady, "The old man had a cerebral infarction. His blood pressure suddenly rose last night. He was sent to the hospital for a checkup. It's nothing serious. He will be fine after two days of rest."
