Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

"What do you think? Am I right? Nan Yifeng is a reliable person. He will definitely handle it properly. You don't have to worry." Fu Yanchen said.

Xu Xiaoxiao remained silent, but the worry between her brows seemed to have eased a little.

"Okay, stop thinking about it and take these medicines quickly so that you can get better soon."

Fu Yanchen persuaded gently, while handing her the pile of colorful pills in his hand.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the pile of medicines and couldn't help but smile bitterly, as if those pills had magical powers that made her feel a lot better.

"Well... Actually, I feel like I'm much better now. Maybe I really don't need to take medicine anymore." She tried to refuse again, with an evasive look in her eyes.

Fu Yanchen smiled secretly in his heart, knowing her little tricks very well. "After you take the medicine, I will leave immediately and will not disturb your rest." He deliberately emphasized the words "leave immediately", because he knew that this was what she wanted to hear the most.

"Really?" Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up instantly, as if she had seen the dawn of relief, "Then you are not allowed to regret it!"

"Yeah!" Fu Yanchen nodded solemnly, his eyes full of pampering and helplessness.

Watching Xu Xiaoxiao taking the pills reluctantly, he secretly rejoiced in his heart that this little battle about taking medicine finally ended with his "victory".

He raised a child so he would be unaware of her weaknesses and temper, and it would be easy for him to grasp this.

Xu Xiaoxiao took the pill and frowned, as if the small pill was a rock heavier than a mountain.

She looked at Fu Yanchen, then at the medicine in her hand, took a deep breath, as if she had made some important decision.

He closed his eyes, bravely put the pill into his mouth, then quickly picked up the glass of water and swallowed it down with a gulp.

Fu Yanchen watched her series of actions, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

He handed her a piece of candy and said with a smile, "How is it? Isn't it not as difficult as you imagined?"

Xu Xiaoxiao had a bitter face, but still took the candy and put it in her mouth. The sweetness instantly dispelled the bitterness of the pill. "It's still... still difficult." She muttered, but a relaxed expression appeared on her face.

"Okay, now that I've taken the medicine, it's time for me to leave." Fu Yanchen stood up and straightened his clothes.

"You...be careful." Xu Xiaoxiao said.

"Yeah." Fu Yanchen chuckled, but there was some reluctance in his eyes, "I'll come to see you tomorrow. Remember to have a good rest and don't let yourself get sick again, otherwise I'll be very worried."

"Okay, I understand." Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, and Fu Yanchen got up and left.

"And..." Fu Yanchen suddenly stopped and turned to look at her, "If there is any news from Nan Yifeng and Nan Weiwei, remember to tell me as soon as possible. Maybe I, an outsider, can help."

"Okay, I will." Xu Xiaoxiao agreed, with mixed emotions welling up in her heart.

"Xiaoxiao, no matter what happens, I will be by your side to support you. This has nothing to do with love. I really want to make you happy. Even if you never forgive me in this life, I will do this."

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, "I understand, they will be fine."

Fu Yanchen remembered something and came back.

"Why...are you coming back?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Fu Yanchen who had returned, with a bit of surprise and confusion in her eyes.

"This... is for you..." Fu Yanchen's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile, and he gently handed the exquisite little box in his hand to her.

Xu Xiaoxiao felt a little confused. She didn't understand why Fu Yanchen suddenly gave her a gift, but she still politely took the box and opened it carefully.

"This is... the silver brooch in the ancient city!" Xu Xiaoxiao recognized the brooch at a glance. She remembered that she had seen it in that antique shop, but the owner clearly told them that it was not for sale.

"How... did you get it? Didn't the store say they wouldn't sell it?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Fu Yanchen in astonishment, feeling both surprised and a little worried.

She really liked this brooch, but she didn't want Fu Yanchen to get it by improper means.

"I said, as long as you want it, I will get it." Fu Yanchen smiled confidently, "Do you like it?"

"I like it...but you won't force me to buy it, right?" Xu Xiaoxiao frowned. She didn't like Fu Yanchen using any coercive means to get things.

"Don't worry, he's willing to do it." Fu Yanchen saw her worry and explained, "The problem of his grandson's schooling has not been solved, and I just made a little effort. He can't thank me enough, how could he be reluctant?"

After listening to Fu Yanchen's explanation, Xu Xiaoxiao's worries were slightly relieved. Nowadays, every parent will treat their children as treasures.

She looked at the brooch in her hand, a mixture of emotions welling up in her heart.

She knew that Fu Yanchen was willing to do anything for her, but...

"Thank you, Fu Yanchen." Xu Xiaoxiao said in a low voice, with a hint of emotion in her voice.

"You're welcome, as long as you're happy."

Fu Yanchen smiled, with a gentle light in his eyes.

He knew that for Xu Xiaoxiao, he was really willing to give everything, even his life.

"I'm leaving. If you don't feel well, call me. Don't disturb Nan Weiwei and the others. Maybe they don't have time."

"Ah?" Xu Xiaoxiao didn't understand why Nan Weiwei didn't have time. Now her uncle and aunt were both in Linshi, so Nan Weiwei wouldn't be without time.

"Silly girl." Fu Yanchen pinched her face and left.

Xu Xiaoxiao stood at the door, watching his back gradually go away until it disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Then she closed the door gently and went back to bed, lying down. Although she was still a little weak, she continued to sleep.

"..."

Just as Fu Yanchen said, the Nan family was indeed like a battlefield at this moment, with a tense and intense atmosphere.

"Nan Yifeng, what do you want to do? You are not a child anymore. I gave you a blind date, but you rejected her, saying that you are not worthy of her. Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Du Yunxi, Nan Yifeng's mother, was so angry that she put her hands on her hips, completely losing her usual dignified image of a noble lady.

Nan Yifeng stood aside with an indifferent expression, as if all this noise had nothing to do with him.

"Mom, I've said it many times. I have no intention of getting married now. Besides, that blind date is not suitable for me."

"Not suitable? How do you know they are not suitable? You haven't even met her a few times! How do you know they are not suitable if you don't try to get along with her? Ah..."

Du Yunxi said angrily, "Do you know how much effort I put into finding this blind date for you? She is a lady from a famous family. She has everything she needs in terms of family background, appearance, and talent!"

"Mom, marriage is not a joke. We can't just look at family background and appearance. I'm looking for someone who can spend my life with me, not a partner who is just of equal social status." Nan Yifeng explained patiently.

"You...you are really going to piss me off to death!" Du Yunxi pointed at Nan Yifeng, her fingers trembling slightly, "Do you know that what you are doing will make our Nan family lose face in the business world? Will it make us a laughing stock? How am I going to explain this to her parents?"

Nan Yifeng sighed softly. He knew that his mother was thinking about the interests of the family, but he was even more unwilling to sacrifice his own happiness for the sake of the family's reputation.

"Mom, I understand your concerns, but please believe me, I will handle this. I won't let the Nan family be ashamed because of me."

Du Yunxi looked at Nan Yifeng's determined eyes. Although she still felt unwilling, she also knew that her son had grown up and had his own ideas and opinions.

She shook her head helplessly. "You guys are making me mad."

"And you... Nan Weiwei, your brother is going on a blind date, why are you making trouble, and you even said that he is his girlfriend. Do you know what the Xiao family's parents said? They said that our family is pretty good, and that we should keep the wealth within the family. Don't find a girlfriend for Nan Yifeng, just marry your own daughter."

Du Yunxi glared at Nan Weiwei, looking very disappointed in her.

Nan pouted slightly and looked at Du Yunxi innocently.

"Mom, I just want to help my brother. That blind date looks like a pretty face. How can she be worthy of my brother?"

"What do you know? Marriage is not something you can interfere with casually. She is not just a pretty face. She helps her parents manage the company."

Du Yunxi was so angry that she stamped her feet. "Do you know that what you are doing will embarrass our Nan family in the business world? How will others view us?"

Nan curled her lips slightly and said disapprovingly: "Mom, you care too much about those empty names. Brother's happiness is the most important, isn't it?"

"Happiness? Do you know what happiness is?" Du Yunxi pointed at Nan Weiwei, her fingers trembling slightly. "Do you know that doing this will ruin your brother's future? It will put our Nan family in trouble?"

Nan was stunned. She didn't expect her actions would bring such serious consequences.

She looked at Du Yunxi's angry eyes, and a feeling of guilt and uneasiness surged in her heart.

"Mom, I'm sorry... I didn't mean it... I just wanted my brother to be happy..." Nan lowered his head slightly, his voice choked with sobs.

Du Yunxi's heart softened when she saw Nan Weiwei's expression.

She knew that Nan Weiwei had good intentions, but her approach was wrong.

"Weiwei, Mom knows you are a good child, but marriage is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. I know your brother has his own ideas and pursuits, and we should respect his choices. However, with our status, there are some things that we cannot control."

Du Yunxi said earnestly, "From now on, don't interfere in your brother's affairs, okay?"

"Mom, our Nan family does not need a marriage to consolidate our position. If the Xiao family goes to the imperial capital, they won't even be ranked among the four major families. I don't understand why mother insists that I marry into the Xiao family."

Nan Yifeng looked at Du Yunxi firmly, his tone revealing an unquestionable determination.

Du Yunxi's expression changed slightly when she heard this, but she immediately regained her composure.

"Yi Feng, you know that mom is thinking about the future of the Nan family. Although the Xiao family is not one of the four major families, they also have a certain influence in the business world, especially in Lin City. But they have the final say. Marrying you will only benefit our Nan family and not harm it."

"Mom, I understand what you mean, but marriage is not a joke. You can't just focus on benefits. Didn't you and Dad not focus on benefits and only on love?"

Nan Yifeng patiently explained, "I'm looking for someone who can spend my life with me, not a partner who can only bring benefits."

"Yi Feng, you are too naive." Du Yunxi sighed, "In this world, nothing is more important than interests. Marriage is no exception. As the heir of the Nan family, you must consider the future of the Nan family. I am different from your father. You can't compare with us."

"Mom, I've thought about it." Nan Yifeng said firmly, "I believe that as long as our Nan family relies on our own strength and hard work, we will be able to gain a foothold in the business world without relying on marriage to consolidate our position. Besides, the Nan family and the Fu family are also cooperating now, so there is nothing to worry about."

"That's why I'm even more worried. Fu Yanchen is a moody person. You know what will happen to the Mo family. Aren't you afraid that the Nan family will follow the Mo family's footsteps?"

"Mom, Fu Yanchen is not that kind of person. Fu Yanchen is a little paranoid, but his paranoia is only about Xiaoxiao. He is very rational about other things. Xiaoxiao is your niece, are you still worried about her?"

"It's because of Xiaoxiao that I'm even more worried."

Du Yunxi's tone revealed deep worry, "Now, Xiaoxiao and Fu Yanchen are in such a bad relationship. He still feels a little guilty about Xiaoxiao, so what's the problem? What if one day Fu Yanchen and Xiaoxiao completely break up, and he gets unhappy and targets the Nan family? He has the ability to do so. If he joins forces with Du Haoran to deal with the Nan family, won't the Nan family be in danger?"

Nan Xi comforted her, "Yun Xi, you should believe Hao Ran, he is not that kind of person. He is also a grandson raised by his father, he will not forget his roots, and Fu Yanchen is not that kind of person either."

Du Yunxi sighed and said, "Oh, why don't you understand? People's hearts will change. What if..." Her words were full of uncertainty and worry about the future.

"Yi Feng, tell me, what kind of girl do you like? I will look for one according to your standards, is that okay?" the mother asked anxiously.

Nan Yifeng looked at his mother's anxious expression and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He turned his gaze to Nan Weiwei who was sitting beside him. She was sitting there quietly, beautiful and gentle, but Nan Yifeng knew that Nan Weiwei was in great pain. The quieter she was, the more uncomfortable she felt. They grew up together and he knew her very well.

Nan Yifeng also knew that his mother’s worries and expectations were all for the future of the Nan family.

Nan Yifeng sighed softly, and then answered seriously: "Mom, I actually like girls like Weiwei. She is kind, innocent, and has a warm heart. She always cares about us silently and takes care of the family in her own way. And she is smart and has her own ideas, but she is not stubborn. In addition, she is passionate about life, positive, and makes people feel happy and energetic. So, if you want to find a girl like me, then look for one who looks like Weiwei."

Nan Yifeng hoped that after he said this, his parents would understand what he meant.

Nan Weiwei, who was standing by, felt her heart in her throat when she heard Nan Yifeng's words, fearing that he would reveal his true type. Now was not the right time.

She secretly glanced at Nan Yifeng and saw that he looked calm, as if he really had feelings for her.

Nan Weiwei felt an indescribable shyness and joy in her heart, but at the same time she felt a little uneasy and guilty.

When Du Yunxi heard Nan Yifeng's words, she was slightly stunned, but then she regained her composure.

She looked at Nan Weiwei, then at Nan Yifeng, and seemed to have some plan in mind.

She knew that Nan Yifeng might have said this to comfort himself, or he might have really liked Nan Weiwei. But no matter what, she would try her best to fulfill her son's wish and consider the future of the Nan family.

"Okay, Yi Feng, since you said so, Mom will try her best to find a girl like Wei Wei for you."

Du Yunxi said gently, "But you have to remember that marriage is not a joke. You must find someone who is truly right for you."

Nan Yifeng, "......"
