Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Kept in the Dark

Not going to bed?

Heard this, Yan Zhen Guo’s eyes slightly narrowed.

And seeing Yan Zhen Guo’s strange look, the same as when he dragged her to bed before, Gu Fuqiao cringed slightly toward the table.

Yan Zhen Guo looked at Gu Fuqiao like this and suddenly laughed, sat at the table, and opened the lunchbox to start eating.

He just suddenly laughed... seemed to be mocking her?

Thinking about being mocked, Gu Fuqiao raised her chin and sat opposite Yan Zhen Guo: "I’m not joking with you!"

"I know." Yan Zhen Guo shoveled a few mouthfuls of rice and then looked at Gu Fuqiao with intense gaze, like a wolf. "You’ve never agreed, but do you think it will work?"

The answer was obviously negative.

After Yan Zhen Guo left, Ouyang Qing came out of the kitchen carrying dishes, Gu Fuqiao almost couldn’t hold back her laughter seeing the plate of charred food in Ouyang Qing’s hand.

"Where is he?" Not seeing Yan Zhen Guo inside the room, Ouyang Qing even found greeting Gu Fuqiao too troublesome.

Gu Fuqiao casually glanced at Ouyang Qing, her high heels were already off, she walked out barefoot, and her hands were greasy, probably had just been battling in the kitchen with the pots and pans!

Though not having seen the scene, just thinking about it, Gu Fuqiao also found it quite entertaining.

Gu Fuqiao casually tidied up the lunchboxes and said: "By the time you finished cooking, it was too late."

"You!" Ouyang Qing belatedly realized she had been tricked by Gu Fuqiao! She really wanted to throw the hard-cooked dish in her hand at Gu Fuqiao’s face to vent her anger!

But she thought that this was not the Gu Family, so she decided against it.

What she didn’t expect was that this self-righteous bookworm of a cousin would scheme against her like this. She was so angry it made her teeth itch. "Let’s have dinner now then." Ouyang Qing said, holding her anger, as she placed the dish on the table directed at Gu Fuqiao.

Gu Fuqiao glanced at the blackened dish, couldn’t help but chuckle, raising her eyes saying: "No need, I’m not hungry, you eat it yourself." After saying this, Gu Fuqiao stood up, planning to go back to the room to take a nap.

"Wait!" Ouyang Qing saw Gu Fuqiao about to leave, and she urgently grabbed Gu Fuqiao’s clothes saying: "If you’re going to sleep now, what will I eat? And what about the dishes later?"

"Didn’t you cook this? Of course, eat that." Provided, of course, that the blackened dish could truly be eaten and even counted as a dish.

"Eat this!" Ouyang Qing exclaimed incredulously with wide eyes: "I came to your house, and you let me eat this?"

Ouyang Qing’s words left Gu Fuqiao unable to retort, Gu Fuqiao simply raised her eyes saying: "Good sister, this was your painstakingly prepared dish, too bad your brother-in-law’s time ran out, and he couldn’t eat it, what, you can’t bear to?"

Ouyang Qi never expected the former bookworm to now be so eloquent; if she said the dish wasn’t tasty, wouldn’t she be slapping her own face?

She had no choice but to swallow her anger and nod; "You’re right, I can’t bear it. How about leaving it for the evening for brother-in-law to eat? I’ll have something else instead."

"In such hot weather, if the dish is left out too long, it’ll spoil, and there’s nothing else to eat at home besides what you cooked, if you don’t want to go hungry, you’d better eat it." Gu Fuqiao stretched lazily, no longer paying attention to Ouyang Qing, and returned to her room.

With a click, after closing the bedroom door, the whole world quieted down!

Being home alone is nice! Gu Fuqiao lay on the bed and took a nap.

Meanwhile, outside the door, Ouyang Qing couldn’t be as leisurely as Gu Fuqiao; seeing the dish she had cooked, she felt totally frustrated. She just thought, Ouyang Qing, oh Ouyang Qing, is it worth it for such a man? Life here isn’t as good as life at the Gu Family! Whether this dish could be eaten or not was unknown, how could she joke with her life?

Thinking about Yan Zhen Guo hardly paying any attention to her, completely ignoring her beauty and talent, and then considering Gu Fuqiao’s constant bullying, Ouyang Qing felt utterly miserable.

She wished she could return home immediately!

Ouyang Qing angrily dumped the whole dish from the plate into the trash can, then turned and stormed back into the room, slamming the door shut with a loud click.

The sound of the slamming door was loud enough for Gu Fuqiao in the opposite room to hear.

However, Gu Fuqiao merely curled her lips into a smile. Getting angry was good; the sooner she went back to the Gu Family, the less trouble she would cause.

After napping for a while, Gu Fuqiao got up and went out, having arranged with Su Jili to go to Zhang Hong’s place together and gather some information. As soon as she left the residential building, she saw Su Jili standing under a tree beside the building, looking down, lost in thought.

Gu Fuqiao called out to him: "Su Jili."

Upon hearing the voice, Su Jili raised his head, saw Gu Fuqiao approaching, and quickly smiled saying: "Ancestral one, you’re finally out, I’ve been waiting here for almost half an hour."

Gu Fuqiao wasn’t fully convinced by Su Jili’s words; she knew that mess men weren’t really that idle.

"Waited three hours for me, right?" Gu Fuqiao teased him saying: "I observed before, around this time, Zhang Hong is usually not at home; she usually goes out for walks or chats with other wives near the well."

The well, as implied, is a well that can fetch water for drinking, having been there many years. Because nearby trees are lush, the area around the well is quite cool.

In summer, many families would rest there, the well water was cool, and many families would even put the purchased watermelon in the well, after a while, when taking it out, the watermelon felt cold to the touch, eating it was tastier than ice cream!

"Alright, let’s go clean up!" Su Jili nodded and said to Gu Fuqiao.

Gu Fuqiao also felt now was the best time, she and Su Jili headed toward the well together.

What she didn’t know was just as she walked away, a window in the residential building behind her was opened by someone.

Ouyang Qingqing stood at the window, watching the man and woman chatting happily, disdainfully smiled, saying: "I was wondering why my cousin changed huh? Turns out it wasn’t because of that brooding brother-in-law, but also, only such a cheerful man would attract a bookworm’s favor, but it’s a pity, too bad Yan Zhen Guo is still in the dark!"

Thinking about catching hold of Gu Fuqiao’s weakness, the previous unpleasantness from being troubled by her all vanished into smoke.
