Fu Cheng looked at his wife, raised his hand, and flicked her forehead.

He had been delaying because he was afraid that if he offered the medicine voluntarily, his wife would misunderstand and think that he was disgusted by it.

As it turned out, the girl actually said that.

However, Fu Cheng also sensed the teasing tone in his wife's words.

Instead, they no longer had this concern.

Lu Shiyi touched her forehead where she had been flicked. Although Fu Cheng had controlled the force and it didn't hurt much, she still instinctively raised her hand to return the flick.

When she was little, her father always taught her: No matter where you are, whether it's your hometown or school, if anyone dares to hit you, you must hit back. No matter how hard they hit you, you should hit back just as hard. If anything happens, your father will take care of you!

Over time, it became a habit.

Therefore, Lu Shiyi would never let herself suffer a loss.

Just as she tiptoed to bounce back, Fu Cheng spoke up: "What? Trading a bottle of medicine for a flick on the head, isn't that a good deal?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Shiyi stopped in time. She glanced at the medicine in her hand, paused for a moment, and replied, "Alright, I'll remember this for now. If this medicine doesn't work, I'll definitely use it to ward it off."

There was nothing I could do; I was beholden to him, so I had to let him off the hook for now.

Fu Cheng glanced at her round head and said seriously, "Your brain capacity is probably not enough. How about I help you remember it?"

Lu Shiyi glared at him, muttering, "What's the use of having a big brain? It's full of ice cubes..."

Fu Cheng turned his head: "What are you whispering about?"

"It's nothing, I was just praising you for being beautiful and kind-hearted. You even remembered things for me, and your brain is as vast as the ocean, capable of holding all rivers. I'm truly ashamed of myself!"

Fu Cheng: "..."

You used "beautiful" to describe me??

Fu Cheng felt humiliated.

Lu Shiyi glanced at her husband and retorted, "Didn't the ancients like to use 'handsome' to describe handsome men? Handsome, handsome, the ultimate in handsome is beautiful. Actually, what I meant was that you are so handsome that no one can beat you."

Upon hearing this, Fu Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly.

Although he didn't know where his wife had heard this fallacy, he was indeed appeased.

She said he was so handsome that no one could compare.

What else could he possibly care about?

I was secretly overjoyed...

After leaving the garage, the couple took the elevator directly to the first floor, then entered the community through the building entrance and began to stroll around.

Lu Shiyi glanced at the medicine in her hand, then handed it to Fu Cheng: "Here, you can keep it."

Fu Cheng frowned: "What? You don't want it anymore?"

"No, my clothes don't have pockets. I'm getting sweaty from holding them like this. Let me put them in your pocket first, and I'll give them to you when we get home."

Upon hearing this, Fu Cheng's furrowed brows immediately smoothed out, as if they had been ironed with an electric iron.

He thought she didn't want it anymore...

"Put it in yourself."

As he spoke, Fu Cheng propped up his pocket with one hand, gesturing for his wife to put it in herself.

Lu Shiyi felt a little confused. Why didn't he just take it and put it in his pocket?

They insisted that she put it herself.

Lu Shiyi put the medicine into her husband's pocket, and Fu Cheng patted it before walking forward with satisfaction.

She put it in herself, so she'll naturally remember to take it away.

After all, it was something he had gone through a lot of trouble to send it away.

Lu Shiyi: How childish! No matter who put it there, I'll remember to take it away!

"By the way, are you free this weekend?" Lu Shiyi turned to ask Fu Cheng.

"what happened?"

“Grandpa brought us so much delicious food and potted plants last time. As the younger generation, we should take the initiative to buy something and visit him. I couldn’t go before because of my leg injury, but now that I’m better, I was thinking of going to see him together this weekend, or we could bring Grandpa over. What do you think?”

Fu Cheng looked at his wife and said, "Grandpa likes you as his granddaughter-in-law, that's why he asked you to bring those things over. You don't need to be polite to him or think about repaying him in any special way."

Lu Shiyi replied, "I'm not being polite, nor am I trying to repay him. Grandpa loves us and is willing to leave us the best things, but we can't take it for granted. Don't believe him just because he says he doesn't need this or that. As juniors, we should still show him respect. He may say he doesn't want it, but when he actually receives it, he'll probably be very happy."

Upon hearing this, Fu Cheng gazed deeply at his wife.

No wonder Grandpa tried every means to force him to marry Lu Shiyi.

Because she is really good!

Even his own grandson felt somewhat ashamed in front of her.

After a while.

Fu Cheng said, "We don't need to wait until the weekend. Grandpa's birthday is coming soon. We can go back and take good care of him when he celebrates his birthday."

"Birthday?" Lu Shiyi looked up at her husband.

"How did you celebrate Grandpa's birthday in previous years? It wasn't the kind of big banquet with all the aunts and uncles coming, was it?"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Logically speaking, Lu Shiyi isn't the type to be shy, but she did seem a little flustered when she said those words.

Even she herself didn't know what she was panicking about.

Seeing his wife's timid appearance, Fu Cheng chuckled and said, "Don't be nervous, it's just a normal birthday. It'll just be a meal with a few close family members. There won't be any other people."

So it's true that ugly daughters-in-law are afraid to meet their in-laws!

Even if his wife is incredibly beautiful, he'd still be afraid.

“Who’s nervous? I was just asking out of curiosity,” Lu Shiyi retorted to her husband.

Fu Cheng: So this is what being stubborn is like. It sounds familiar!

How often did you usually go home to visit your grandfather and parents?

Since the topic had come up, Lu Shiyi couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

Fu Cheng understood that what his wife meant by "the past" was before their marriage.

To be honest, he really didn't have that concept.

Fu Cheng lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Usually when they miss me, they will come to see me on their own."

"Because I'm usually quite busy with work," he added.

What Fu Cheng said was true. Since he took over the Fu Group, he has almost always lived and worked at the company, in hotels, or in his villa. His grandparents and parents have always tried to find various reasons to harass him, so he has never had the chance to go back to the manor to visit them.

Lu Shiyi: "..."

Even the emperors of ancient times weren't as busy with state affairs as he was.

This society is really tough these days; even a junior manager at a well-known company can be exploited like this.

It was so difficult...

“If we don’t visit Grandpa this weekend, I plan to go back to my hometown with Yao Yao to see Mom and Dad,” Lu Shi said to her husband as they took a walk.

"It's been a while since I last went back to my hometown to visit my parents."

Upon hearing this, Fu Cheng couldn't help but look up at Lu Shiyi.

Some people hesitate to speak.

He recalled the scene of his last conversation with his father-in-law.

After a moment of silence.

He ultimately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He then said, "No matter how busy you are in the future, make time to go back and visit your parents. I'll go with you!"

Although he didn't want to hide his father-in-law's illness from his wife, he ultimately chose to keep his promise.
