After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.
Chapter 92 Fu Cheng's First Display of Strength
Upon hearing this, Fu Cheng looked at his wife with a lingering tenderness in his eyes.
In his view, it is perfectly normal for the husband to drive and the wife to ride in the car.
But he didn't expect that his wife would consider his hard work and fatigue and offer to drive him.
In fact, both of them are meticulous people at heart.
After the two left the community gate from the garage, Fu Cheng suggested that they buy some things first after breakfast, and then go over there.
But Lu Shiyi hesitated. Before she knew what her in-laws were really like, she would always bring a lot of things when she went to her sister's place.
But ever since she found out, she didn't want to bring them anymore. She knew that most of the things she bought probably ended up in the stomachs of her in-laws and brother-in-law. People like them would only become more and more arrogant.
Seeing that his wife remained silent, Fu Cheng knew what she was thinking, so he said, "If Yao Yao ends up enjoying all these things we bought, that would be the best. If not, we'll just consider it as Yao Yao giving alms to that family. At the same time, we'll let that family know that Yao Yao has her sister and brother-in-law backing her up, both financially and in terms of how she conducts herself."
Lu Shiyi turned to look at her husband and felt that this handsome and aloof man seemed to be becoming more and more humane.
She nodded and said, "Then after we finish breakfast, we'll buy some things at the supermarket near the morning market and then head over."
She then drove towards the morning market.
After the two finished breakfast, when they went to the supermarket to buy things, Lu Shiyi discovered that her husband, who used to just wait impatiently on the sidelines, actually joined in today.
The key point is that he not only gets involved, but also intervenes from time to time.
Of course, he didn't complain that Lu Shiyi's purchases weren't good enough, but rather that they weren't expensive enough.
Lu Shiyi considered that his younger sister had just undergone surgery and been hospitalized recently, and was still a bit weak, so he bought her nutritional supplements and tonics.
However, Fu Cheng replaced all the supplements she chose with higher-grade ones, some of which cost four or five figures.
Lu Shiyi was stunned. It wasn't that she was unwilling to spend money on her sister, but wasn't her husband trying to save face?
But considering the husband's position and income, it seems somewhat reasonable, but... well...
Fu Cheng specifically told her that this was something Yao Yao's sister and brother-in-law bought together, so he had to use the card he gave his wife for their family's expenses, and Lu Shiyi was not allowed to pay for it herself.
Anyway, the money in that card was all deposited by him, so it was no different from spending his own money.
To be honest, Fu Cheng was already quite restrained when choosing those high-end supplements.
Lu Shiyi understood her husband's intention in doing this. Just as her husband had said before, he wanted to let that family know that Yao Yao had her sister and brother-in-law backing her up, both financially and in terms of strength.
After all, it is human nature to bully the weak.
The couple arrived at their sister's apartment complex around 11 a.m.
Lu Shiyi parked the car, and then Fu Cheng carried the large and small boxes of tonics. The two of them walked upstairs to his sister's house together.
Before arriving, she had called her sister and knew that her sister's in-laws were all home, since it was the weekend.
When the young couple entered, it was Li Haokai, the brother-in-law, who opened the door.
Although the two had some disagreements last time, as long as they are not divorced, life must go on as usual. Moreover, Li Haokai listened to his mother's advice and temporarily maintained the marriage.
So when he saw his sister and brother-in-law coming over, he still greeted them politely.
Then he reached out to help Fu Cheng lift the things in his hands.
The in-laws remained seated on the living room sofa, only glancing towards the door before saying politely, "Eleven, you've arrived."
Mr. Li was about to get up to greet her, but after being glared at by Mrs. Li, he silently sat back down.
Li's mother thought, "I'll just keep to myself and let you get along. Am I, an elder, supposed to get up and greet a junior like you? Don't you even know how big your face is?"
After welcoming the couple into the house, Li Haokai handed the tonics he was carrying to his mother, asking her to help put them inside.
At this moment, Lu Shuyao came out of the bedroom and went straight to her sister's side, linking arms with her sister and chatting happily.
Mrs. Li carried large and small boxes into the house, muttering under her breath, "Every time I come, I buy some rubbish. They look fancy, but they're all just for show and not practical at all."
As she spoke, she put the things in the corner of the room and was about to go back to the living room when she inadvertently glanced at the price tag on one of the boxes.
Before she could notice anything else, she saw several nines at the end.
Out of curiosity, she squatted down to take a closer look, and what she counted really startled her.
Her short, stubby, and slightly wrinkled fingers tapped on the price tags, one nine after another, while she silently counted in her mind, one, ten, hundred, thousand...
Li's mother quickly checked the labels on the other boxes and was so shocked that she almost squatted down on the ground.
"My goodness, this couple is too cruel to that brat Yao Yao."
She knew perfectly well that these things were bought by Lu Shiyi to help her younger sister improve her health.
In the past, when she played cards in the neighborhood, she often encountered some wealthy women who always boasted about how expensive supplements their sons or grandsons bought for them, such as bird's nest, cordyceps, seahorse, ginseng, and the like.
She also wanted her son to buy her something to show off, but after learning the price, she gave up; it was too expensive and not worth it.
Li's mother carefully picked up the various tonics that had been placed on the floor in the corner of the room and put them on the table, arranging them neatly box by box, before coming out of the not-so-large storage room.
Back in the living room, her attitude towards Lu Shiyi and his wife changed noticeably. "Shiyi, you two should sit down and have some water. Don't be shy, we're all family, so make yourselves at home."
She only knew that Lu Shiyi's husband was a leader of a company, but she didn't know the specifics of his position. Now she felt that he must have some reputation.
These things are clearly beyond what Lu Shiyi's shabby study room can provide.
Fu Cheng has a powerful aura, and now it seems he is indeed not simple. He can do this to his sister-in-law, so he must have powerful backing.
Li's mother felt that it was best to avoid getting involved with this couple in the future.
And that brat Yao Yao, just go along with her if you can.
My daughter-in-law's temper has become noticeably tougher lately. Sometimes she doesn't listen, and sometimes she even dares to talk back. If the two of them really start arguing and neither of them gives in, a tough fight is inevitable, which will definitely alarm her sister and brother-in-law.
Since she's now focused on finding a job and earning money, let her look for one and earn it. Once she finds a job and starts working, she can share the mortgage and car loan payments with Haokai.
Thinking about it this way, Li's mother felt that it wasn't such a bad thing after all, and she would reluctantly go along with her for now...
