Marrying a powerful man: The third master is wild and untamable

Chapter 148 It’s not that I can’t afford it

Bai Yuanjing explained: "I was the one who performed his heart surgery six years ago. He has no children, and he has been treating me as his biological son in the past few years. He heard that I was getting married, and he called me specifically last week. Give it to me and ask me to come to his house to pick diamonds. The little old man is stubborn and lost his temper when I didn't come. He called me again the day before yesterday to urge me to bring you with me and show him."

The weather is very good today, the spring sun is warm, there are more than a dozen pine trees of different shapes planted on the grass in front of the mansion, and there are two poodles playing around the fountain.

Shen Xiuwan held Bai Yuanjing's hand and praised: "Old Yu lives here alone, but his life is not careless at all. These pine trees are so beautifully trimmed, and the two poodles are also very clean. The old man is about one A very particular person who loves life, right?"

"Living alone?" Bai Yuanjing chuckled, "You'll find out when you get in."

As soon as the two stepped into the door of the mansion, Shen Xiuwan heard lively laughter coming from the living room.

She looked around and saw four or five maids in cheongsam and curly hair sitting at the table playing mahjong. They were all slim and graceful with exquisite makeup, and they were talking and laughing very happily.

She was stunned and asked Bai Yuanjing in a low voice: "This is..."

Bai Yuanjing whispered: "Lao Yu's confidante."

Shen Xiuwan: "..."

The old man has no children, but he has quite a lot of confidantes.

Mr. Yu happened to come down the stairs with a book. When he saw the two people entering the door, he couldn't help adjusting his glasses: "Xiao Jing is here! Is this Xiao Jing's fiancée? I don't know what to call her?"

Although he is in his fifties or sixties, he is very well-dressed. He wears a custom-made shirt, vest and suit that is very crisp and exquisite. He also wears a solid gold tie clip inlaid with diamonds carefully. It can be vaguely seen that he must have looked like this when he was young. A very handsome man.

Hearing the sound, several maids also looked over.

Bai Yuanjing introduced Shen Xiuwan, and Shen Xiuwan greeted them gracefully and called them one by one in a sweet voice.

Mr. Yu and several maids looked at Shen Xiuwan carefully and were all very satisfied.

Several maids even stuffed Shen Xiuwan with thick red envelopes.

Shen Xiuwan looked at Bai Yuanjing helplessly, and Bai Yuanjing smiled and said, "It's okay, just accept it."

The maids pulled Shen Xiuwan and asked her with concern if she knew how to play mahjong.

Shen Xiuwan said honestly: "I don't usually fight much, I only know a little bit."

"Look at you kid, you are so humble!"

As the maids spoke, they pushed her down onto the mahjong table.

Yu Lao said cheerfully: "I, the ladies, have no other hobbies. They just like to play mahjong. We usually play for three or four hours without stopping. Xiao Jing, you have to keep an eye on Miss Shen." Now, don’t let her get greedy for mahjong too.”

Bai Yuanjing looked at Shen Xiuwan dotingly: "If you are greedy, you will be greedy. It's not that you can't afford it."

As he was talking, the maid suddenly came in and reported: "Mr. Yu, the military governor has arrived."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Jincheng came in while arranging his cufflinks: "Teacher——"

Eyes facing each other.

Fu Jincheng glanced at Bai Yuanjing unexpectedly, and then slowly fell to the card table.

The figure he was familiar with was sitting at the card table.

Today she wore a peacock blue embroidered cheongsam, with a pearl and jade hairpin in her slightly curly crow hair. Her face was round and beautiful, and she wore a jade bracelet with good water quality on her slender wrist. He recognized it as a white jade bracelet. The one my wife usually wears.

When she smiled, her eyelashes were curved, which was very pleasing to her elders. When several maids looked at her, their faces were full of pity and love, as if they were looking at their own daughter.

"Jincheng?" Mr. Yu called out. Seeing that he didn't respond, he turned to Bai Yuanjing with a smile, "He called me in the middle of the night last night and said he had a relationship problem and wanted to ask me to help. Unfortunately, it happened to be with you. I bumped into Miss Shen. I have asked someone to prepare lunch, and the three of you will stay to eat." Because one of the maids loved to eat the pork ribs and winter melon soup cooked by Mr. Yu himself, he called Bai Yuanjing and Fu Jincheng themselves Then, I went to the kitchen to make soup by myself.

The two sat side by side on the sofa. Bai Yuanjing picked up the hot tea brought by the maid, lowered his eyes and blew on the tea soup, then took a sip.

Fu Jincheng was expressionless and drank tea quietly.

He doesn't have many acquaintances in Shanghai.

Mr. Yu is one of them.

When he was young, Mr. Yu had just returned from studying abroad, and was hired by his grandfather to teach him and other children of the Fu family how to read. Mr. Yu had always been strict, and he was the only one who persisted in the end.

It wasn't until he went abroad that he lost contact with Mr. Yu.

I was transferred to Shanghai last year and learned that Mr. Yu lived here, so I started visiting again.

Because he heard that Bai Yuanjing was taking Shen Xiuwan to the Bund to pick out a ring today, he felt unhappy, so he hid in the teacher's place.

Unexpectedly, he bumped into them both again.

Fu Jincheng put down the teacup: "Aren't you going to choose a diamond ring?"

"Mr. Yu asked us to choose from his collection of diamonds, so we came here." Bai Yuanjing smiled, "By the way, do you have any relationship problems that you want to ask Mr. Yu for advice? I remember that you have been busy with official duties in the past two years. You When did you find a girl you liked again? Did you just meet her recently?"

The warm spring sun shone in through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window behind them, but it fell on the two people in pale and cold tones. They were wearing well-tailored suits and slim-fitting satin robes, forming a perfect atmosphere in the high-ceilinged Chinese-style living room. The dark color of confrontation.

Facing Bai Yuanjing's question, Fu Jincheng's backlit face showed unclear emotions.

Immediately, he looked at Bai Yuanjing.

Both of them were silent, as if they were trying to make a hole in each other.

At this moment, Fu Jincheng was extremely sure that Bai Yuanjing had already understood his thoughts.

His fists quietly tightened.

Bai Yuanjing's city is so deep.

He knew that he was in love with Shen Xiuwan, but he still said such words deliberately in front of him.

How is this different from gouging out the heart?

But he was speechless.

He couldn't deny it, but he didn't dare to admit it. His chest seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, and the fire in his heart burned quietly, and the burning fire seemed to completely burn his limbs and bones.

Bai Yuanjing could see his subtle emotional changes.

He looked at Shen Xiuwan who was playing mahjong with the maids, slowly turned the golden sandalwood Buddhist beads bracelet on her wrist, and said gently: "Look, she is living a good life now, much happier than when she was in Yanjing." Yes. I remember during those years in Yanjing, she never had a smile on her face."

"Bai Yuanjing." Fu Jincheng's eyes were dark, "Don't you think you are despicable?"

"I don't think so." Bai Yuanjing said frankly, "I am pursuing a divorced woman. I have not destroyed other people's families and relationships. How could I be despicable?"

Fu Jincheng was silent.

"It's you," Bai Yuanjing looked at him again, "you shouldn't look back for the woman you gave up with your own hands, right? Or do you think that putting her in pain again is what you call love?"
