After saying that, he also glanced in the direction of Zhan Hui.

Seeing the look of watching a show flash across the other person's eyes, he immediately reacted in his heart: "Zhan Hui, that cunning fox, has learned Your Majesty's plan and used it on me, bringing in Yuan Tai... So he was waiting for me here! What a scoundrel!"

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, who doesn’t know who?

For a stubborn person like Yuan Tai, he would definitely not accept the pale excuse at all. With a cold face, he sneered disdainfully: "I have my own thoughts on what kind of person Lord Fu is. I shouldn't have come here today. Sorry to bother you!"

He bowed politely, not really thinking about it.

He seemed to be gritting his teeth while speaking, with an expression that said, "I, Yuan, am really blind and have chosen the wrong person."

He turned around and was about to walk out.

"Oh..." Fu Youwen raised his hand and wanted to say something to explain, but he felt that nothing he said could clear himself, so he could only stop talking. Looking at Yuan Tai's back as he moved quickly outside, his face was almost wrinkled.

If Yuan Tai just scolded him here, he wouldn't care.

The key point is that Yuan Tai has always been fearless and speaks without restraint. Once he leaves his Fu Mansion, everyone he meets might complain about him. If this continues, Fu Youwen's reputation... will be ruined.

Seeing Zhan Hui quietly drinking tea and watching the show, Fu Youwen almost cursed Zhan Hui's ancestors from beginning to end in his heart.

Feeling Fu Youwen's sharp gaze, Zhan Hui ignored him, lowered his eyes and pretended to concentrate on drinking tea, while watching the old man Fu Youwen scratching his ears and cheeks as if ants were crawling all over his body.

When Yuan Tai stepped out of the threshold.

Fu Youwen couldn't stand the psychological pressure anymore and said to Yuan Tai, "Master Yuan, wait a minute! How about the three of us go out for a walk together?"

Yuan Tai paused.

He turned to look at Fu Youwen and said, "Master Fu, what do you want to tell me?"

Although he was straightforward, he was not stupid. He knew that when Fu Youwen called him and wanted to go out for a walk with him, it must not be just a "walk".

As for what was going on, he had no idea.

Since his pretense of illness had been exposed, Fu Youwen had nothing more to pretend about. He simply threw off the quilt, got out of bed and put on his shoes. He said, "Why are you so impatient? I've been stuck at home for so long. Isn't it time to go out and meet some people? Old Liu! Go get a carriage right away!"

"Yes, sir." The servant waiting outside the door responded immediately, and then hurried away with the sound of footsteps coming from near and getting farther away.

Looking at Fu Youwen, he seemed to be keeping everyone in suspense.

Yuan Tai was suspicious. "What on earth is this cunning old fellow planning? At least... he's definitely feigning illness. And right at the beginning of everyone's kneeling protest, he just ducked and ran away."

At this time, Zhan Hui stood up, as if nothing had happened, and echoed: "Let's go, it's time to go for a walk. I have been recuperating at home for a few days. I wanted to come to discuss strategy with Master Fu. The guest should follow the host's wishes. Since Master Fu said so, let's go for a walk together."

Of course Zhan Hui has patience.

He knew that Fu Youwen still cared about his reputation to some extent, and he also knew that if Fu Youwen didn't want Yuan Tai to go out and shout that he and the Huaixi nobles were birds of a feather, he would have to come up with some decent explanation.

Seeing Zhan Hui like this.

Although Yuan Tai was suspicious in his heart, he nodded silently and agreed to this matter. However, there was still some contempt and disdain in the look he gave Fu Youwen.

In this way, the three of them got on the carriage prepared by Fu Youwen's mansion one after another.

The carriage slowly set out from the side door of the Fu Mansion.

They walked in silence.
