What? The villain wants to marry me?

The next day, Fu Ruoan was taken to the old house by Fu Mingde, who said that her grandfather had something to give her.

Fu Ruoan didn't understand. Why did her grandfather give everything to her instead of giving it to her father and two uncles? At the very least, there were still a few cousins.

But she has always been carefree. If she can't figure out something like this, she won't think about it anymore. She will know the answer soon anyway.

The old man is already waiting.

Looking at the old man sitting upright at the head of the hall, Fu Ruoan subconsciously slowed down his steps.

You know what, this old man is quite scary at first glance.

But I haven't done anything wrong, so why should I be afraid?

Thinking of this, he returned to his usual attitude.

Old Master Fu saw the changes in Fu Ruoan before and after she came in. At this moment, he felt a little regretful. Even if this girl had not been deliberately trained by her family, she could adjust herself in a very short time. If she had been carefully trained, how outstanding would she be?

Little did he know that Mr. Fu had really misunderstood. Fu Ruoan didn't know how to adjust herself at all. She was simply too careless.

After entering the lobby, Fu Ruoan asked directly: "Grandpa, my dad said you have something for me? What is it?"

You know what, she was really curious.

Mr. Fu glanced at Fu Mingde, then said to Fu Ruoan, "Did your father tell you what it is?"

Fu Ruoan: "No, my dad didn't say anything."

Old Master Fu nodded and said, "Okay, that's all. Here, this box contains something for you. I should have given it to you a long time ago, but you rarely come to the old house, so I never gave it to you.

I'll give it to you today. You should keep it well. It's best to carry it with you, or find a safe place to keep it away from outsiders."

After hearing this, Fu Ruoan became even more curious. What on earth was it?

After Mr. Fu finished speaking, he handed the box to Fu Ruoan, who took the box and couldn't wait to open it and take a look.

He didn't notice that his old father was hesitant to speak.

A jade pendant and a key lay quietly in the box.

Hmm? What's this combination? What does this mean, old man?

Could this thing be a family heirloom? Could this key unlock the treasure?

I have to say, in a way, Fu Ruoan is telling the truth.

But then she thought again, there are a lot of these things in the antique market, so what's so special about them?

Then he closed the box in disappointment.

Old Master Fu watched the expressions on Fu Ruoan's face change from time to time. He knew what she was thinking without her having to say it, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"An An, this isn't a rare item, but all the descendants of the Fu family have it, so Grandpa can't favor one over the other, right? So, this thing is neither important nor unimportant, do you understand?"

I don't understand a thing! It sounds like a tongue twister.

But he responded, "Grandpa, I understand. Don't worry, I will take good care of it."

Little did she know that Fu Ruoan was already thinking about how to give this thing to Xie Qingran and ask her to keep it for her. Hey! She is such a clever little ghost!

Mr. Fu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good boy, I will give the things to you now. You must take good care of them and take good care of yourself."

For a moment, Fu Ruoan felt that his grandfather had something else to say, but then he denied it.

Poor Fu Ruoan, she had no idea how terrifying this thing would make her life in the future.

After getting the things, Fu Ruoan didn't stay in the old house for long. Seeing that the old man and her father wanted to talk about something, she took the opportunity to leave.

After leaving the old house, Fu Ruoan originally wanted to return to the villa, but when she glanced at the box in her hand, she changed her mind.

It’s better to do it today than to wait for another day. Just give it to Xie Qingran now and call her to ask if she is free.

Just do it.

Fu Ruoan took out his cell phone and dialed Xie Qingran's number. The call was connected as soon as it rang.

Xie Qingran's smiling voice came from the phone: "An An, do you miss me?"

Fu Ruoan was about to blurt out something, but was stopped by Xie Qingran's words. She said in embarrassment, "Xie Qingran, could you please stop being so cheesy? Who missed you?"

Xie Qingran was sitting in the office at this time. She changed her posture and said, "Oh? Why did you call me if you missed me?"

The rather smug tone made Fu Ruoan grit his teeth.

She really had no way to refute it, although... she still really missed Xie Qingran, but at this time Fu Ruoan was feeling strong.

Fu Ruoan stiffened his neck and retorted: "No, you're overthinking it."

But how could she be a match for Xie Qingran, a seasoned businessman.

Xie Qingran only said: "Oh, forget it, I'm hanging up."

Fu Ruoan's breath was stuck in his throat, unable to move up or down.

For a moment I didn't know how to refute.

Seeing that Fu Ruan's voice did not come from the receiver, Xie Qingran thought she was really angry and wondered if he had gone too far. After all, Fu Ruan was thin-skinned!

Then he apologized: "An An, don't be angry, I...beep, beep."

Before he could finish his words, he heard a beep from his phone.

Oh no! I pissed off my girlfriend!

Then he laughed and wanted to call back, but after thinking about it, he just made a video call.

Fu Ruoan, who was still feeling embarrassed, saw Xie Qingran calling him via video. His eyes rolled, he thought of something and answered the call.

The first thing he said was: "Hey, Mr. Xie, do you miss me? How come you have time to video call me?" After saying that, he raised his head proudly.

Xie Qingran was stunned for a moment, but then she realized that this was Fu Ruoan's revenge for what she had just said.

Just as she thought, Fu Ruoan was taking revenge on her.

But Fu Ruoan also underestimated Xie Qingran. She was thicker-skinned than Fu Ruoan.

So I just admitted it: "Yeah, I missed you so much that I couldn't sleep."

Fu Ruoan was dumbfounded. No, why was this different from what he imagined?

This guy is so shameless!

While still thinking about Xie Qingran's thick skin, Xie Qingran's voice came from the phone again: "An An, I really miss you. I wish I could be with you every day, without being separated for a moment."

As soon as she finished speaking, she clearly saw Fu Ruoan's face gradually turning pink.

Then Fu Ruoan glared at Xie Qingran on the phone and said, "Do you have any shame? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xie Qingran tilted his head and said, "What face do I need? You are enough for me."

Then the phone screen suddenly went black.

Then Fu Ruoan's voice came: "Are you in the company? I'll come right over. I have something to tell you."

Without waiting for Xie Qingran to reply, the video was hung up.

Xie Qingran was stunned for a moment, then became happy.

How could she not be happy since her girlfriend was coming to see her?

Waiting for someone is really unbearable. Even though only a few minutes had passed, Xie Qingran felt like a long time had passed.

She stood by the elevator, pacing back and forth anxiously, wondering why Fu Ruoan hadn't arrived yet.

The people in the secretariat were very surprised to see this. What happened to Mr. Xie? Was he going downstairs or waiting for someone?

Finally, the elevator dinged and opened.

Fu Ruoan wanted to come out, but was startled by Xie Qingran at the elevator door.

Fu Ruoan stroked his chest gently and said in shock: "Fuck! Xie Qingran, are you trying to scare me to death?!"

Xie Qingran smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have scared you. Come out quickly. I'll go to the office to talk about it."

Fu Ruoan gave her a strange look, then walked into the office.

I was still thinking, where is that cold and aloof Xie Qingran?

Just as Xie Qingran was about to enter the office, she saw several secretaries from the secretariat staring at her in a daze.

She frowned and said, "You guys are free?"

Several secretaries woke up as if from a dream and hurriedly went to do their own work.

After entering the office and closing the door, Xie Qingran was stunned by Fu Ruoan's words before he could say anything.

Because Fu Ruoan said: "Xie Qingran, let's go treasure hunting together?"

Xie Qingran stood there in a daze, wondering who his girlfriend was going to cosplay as today? A treasure hunter?

So, does she want to cooperate and play the role of... the evil dragon blocking the road?
