Fu Ze stared at her. “We agreed to get married. Are you going back on your word?”

Ning Xiang shook the stick. “How can that be? Marrying President Fu is something that many people don’t even dare to dream of. Besides, I quite like you, so it’s even more impossible for me to reject you.”

When Fu Ze heard her words, he smiled quickly and said, “Aren’t you going to ask me why I want to marry you?”

Ning Xiang’s alcohol tolerance was average. After drinking too much, her face was as red as spring cherry blossoms, making one want to take a bite.

Fu Ze felt his teeth itch.

Ning Xiang did not feel she was in any danger. She analyzed seriously, “First of all, I eliminate the possibility that you like me. You lack a shield, and I happen to be unafraid of those crazy women who pursue you, right?”

“Smart.” Fu Ze’s voice was low. He helped Ning Xiang back to the car and let her lean against him. “Ning Xiang, I’ve been observing you for a while and think that you’re the most suitable person to be with me, but there’s one thing…”

“It’s fake.” Ning Xiang lazily raised her hand and touched his chin. “You and I are using each other. You can’t be tempted. Once you meet someone you like, this partnership will immediately come to a halt.”

Fu Ze sighed. He grabbed the hand that kept rubbing his face and kissed her fingertips. “Can you read minds?”

Ning Xiang shook her head. Her hair brushed past his ear, making him feel a little itchy.

“No, I’m just like you.”

When they arrived at the Fu residence, the two of them got out of the car. Fu Ze glanced at Ning Xiang. Ning Xiang chuckled and naturally held his arm.

The Fu family’s mansion was huge. It occupied an area of more than 3,000 square meters and contained a horse ranch, pools, gardens, and other infrastructure. It was built by a world-class architect. Every inch was extremely perfect.

Ning Xiang had seen big scenes before, but she was still stunned by the Fu family’s mansion.

Auntie Sun was the maid working at the residence. Her eyes lit up when she saw Ning Xiang.

Who was the girl? She was very pretty.

Moreover, the boss actually had such natural intimate contact with her. Other than his family, Auntie Sun had never seen Fu Ze touch a woman.

Was she going to have a mistress?

Auntie Sun welcomed them with a smile and took their things.

Fu Ze nodded and said, “This is Ning Xiang. We are getting married tomorrow and she’s spending the night here.” He paused and added, “Make her some food.”

Ning Xiang said, “Hello.”

Auntie Sun was stunned. When she realized what he meant, she smiled widely. ” Xiang, right? What do you want to eat? Can you eat spicy food? Or do you want to eat something salty?”

Fu Ze said, “She likes spicy food and doesn’t eat green onions and coriander. Since she just drank some wine, get her some soup to suppress it. We can make the spicy ones some other time.”

Ning Xiang glanced sideways. Fu Ze turned to look at her with an innocent expression.

“Why are you looking at me this way? Isn’t it normal for a husband to know his wife’s preferences?”

Ning Xiang retracted her gaze. “I’m fine. It’s just that the feeling of being taken care of is quite novel.”

Suddenly, a voice interrupted.

“Ze, who is she?”

Ning Xiang looked over. On the spiral staircase stood a beautiful woman with a serious expression and a graceful bearing.

Ning Xiang was not afraid at all. She smiled and greeted her calmly. “Hello, my name is Ning Xiang. I’m Fu Ze’s fiancée.”

This should be the matriarch of the Fu family. She had read about her in a column in a business magazine before. The woman was strong and iron-blooded.

Although she was not very afraid, she still felt a little uncomfortable facing such a person, but in the next second, the discomfort disappeared.

Qiao Yun’s eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly went down the stairs and held Ning Xiang’s hand. She sized her up from head to toe, her eyes filled with surprise.

“Are you Ze’s future wife?” Qiao Yun couldn’t stop smiling. She was a fearsome demoness in the business world, but she touched Ning Xiang’s hand kindly. “Good, very good. One look and you can tell that she’s a good girl.”

As she spoke, she stuffed a big red packet into her hand.

Qiao Yun chuckled and said, “I wasn’t expecting you. There’s a cheque for 300 million inside. It’s my gift to you. We’ll get the boys to come back with their wives as soon as possible so that we can celebrate Xiangxiang’s arrival!”

Qiao Yun kept holding Ning Xiang’s hand. Qiao Yun had never done heavy work in her life, so her hand was warm and dry.

Ning Xiang never tasted maternal love from her biological mother in her life. This must be how it felt like.

Fu Ze looked at Ning Xiang’s face and gently patted her shoulder.

“Welcome home.”
