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

Chapter 1486 Spending money randomly

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the old lady's angry yet somewhat aggrieved expression, feeling helpless.

She knew too well how stubborn the older generation's thinking was, like old tree roots buried deep underground, which could not be shaken in the slightest no matter how much wind and rain eroded them.

She sighed softly, and the sigh was particularly clear in the silent room. Then she spoke slowly, with a hint of fatigue and compromise in her voice.

"Alright, alright, alright, don't dwell on this matter! Go take a walk in the yard. The air there is fresh and pleasant. Make a pot of fragrant tea and savor it leisurely. It's such a refreshing and enjoyable thing!"

"Please don't always focus on this kind of thing. If you keep doing this, Weiwei might not dare to come to our house anymore, which would be terrible. After all, Weiwei is your granddaughter. If you can't accept her from the bottom of your heart, then I'm sure my heart will feel like it's being stabbed by needles."

When the old lady heard this, her heart skipped a beat, as if she had been hit hard by something heavy.

She was already feeling a little disappointed because Xu Xiaoxiao didn't stand on her side, and now she felt even more aggrieved.

Her eyes, which were already somewhat cloudy, were now covered with a thin layer of mist. Her lips were trembling slightly, as if she wanted to say something but was holding back.

After a long while, she suddenly threw her hands away and said with a hint of anger: "Okay, everyone thinks I'm old and in the way, right? Can't I just leave? I don't want to be disliked here."

After saying that, she took a step and walked towards the door angrily. The sound of her footsteps "dong dong dong" seemed to be venting her inner dissatisfaction.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the old lady's back as she left angrily, shook her head gently, and a helpless and doting smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

In her mind, the elderly are like children, whose emotions come and go quickly. They may be angry now, but they may get over it later.

The rain outside the window is still falling, hitting the window, making a crackling sound, as if telling the triviality and helplessness of life.

The old lady came to Fu Yanchen's study angrily and knocked on the door hard.

After hearing the voice of "come in" from inside, she pushed the door open and strode in.

Fu Yanchen was sitting at the desk, concentrating on looking at the documents. When he heard the door open, he looked up and saw the old lady's angry face. He couldn't help but frowned slightly, put down the documents in his hand, stood up, and asked calmly, "Grandma, is there something wrong?"

The old lady put her hands on her hips, her eyes wide open, her eyes full of warning and dissatisfaction, as if Fu Yanchen had done something unforgivable.

She said loudly: "Yan Chen, Xiaoxiao is pregnant now. This is a big event for our family. You must keep yourself in check and don't do anything romantic. Xiaoxiao is a very simple child and doesn't know how to judge people. You must not get involved with any flowers or plants. If you dare to let Xiaoxiao down, I, an old woman, will not forgive you!"

After saying that, the old lady slapped the table hard. The "bang bang" sound seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet study.

Fu Yanchen's brows were furrowed, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but his tone was still firm and gentle: "Grandma, you really worry too much. Xiaoxiao has always been in my heart, so how could I go out and mess around with other women? You are not unaware of my feelings for Xiaoxiao over the years. She is the one I have chosen for my life. I will definitely protect her well and will not let her suffer any grievances."

The old lady didn't buy it. She waved her hands vigorously, as if trying to shake off her worries. Then she raised her voice and said, "Even if you only have Xiaoxiao in your heart now, there are so many temptations in this colorful world. Who knows when you will lose control?"

"Also, tell the bodyguards at the door not to let Xiaoxiao's friends come over to play with her, especially Nan Weiwei. Xiaoxiao is pregnant now, so she needs to take care of the baby quietly and avoid contact with those people."

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen immediately shook his head and became serious. "Grandma, Xiaoxiao is just taking care of the baby, not a prisoner. There's no need to restrict her freedom like this. Besides, everyone has the right to make friends. Xiaoxiao and her friends have a deep bond. They can accompany and comfort each other, which is good for Xiaoxiao's mood and health. You can't isolate Xiaoxiao just because you're worried about something unfounded."

The old lady stomped her feet in anger and pointed at Fu Yanchen's nose and said, "You, you are too pampering Xiaoxiao. I am doing this for her own good. She is pregnant now. What if those friends bring any bad influence?"

Fu Yanchen explained, "Grandma, I understand your concerns, but we can't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Xiaoxiao's friends are all people who really care about her, and they will be careful about their behavior. And with the bodyguards here, there won't be any trouble. Just relax."

I don't know when the rain outside the window stopped. Through the window, I can see the blue sky, which seems to bring a ray of light to the slightly dull atmosphere.

Fu Yanchen's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, but his eyes were still filled with confusion. He gently patted the back of the old lady's hand, his tone sincere yet a little anxious.

"Besides, Weiwei is also your granddaughter. Why do you have such a strong opinion about her? Is there some misunderstanding here?"

The old lady sighed softly, her eyes full of pity. She slowly sat down on the chair, pulled Fu Yanchen to sit down with her, and then slowly said: "I just feel sorry for Xiaoxiao. She has suffered too much since she was a child. Over the years, she has stumbled all the way here, suffered so much, and endured so much pain. My heart feels like it is being cut by a knife."

Fu Yanchen nodded slightly and followed the old lady's words and said, "Grandma, I know you feel sorry for Xiaoxiao, but you really don't understand the relationship between her and Weiwei."

"Before they even met, Nan Weiwei risked her life to protect Xiaoxiao. When Xiaoxiao was in danger, it was Weiwei who stood in front of her, regardless of her own safety. I'm still terrified when I think about that scene. The friendship between them has withstood the test of life and death, so how could he hurt her now? Weiwei's kindness to Xiaoxiao is truly visible."

The old lady listened to Fu Yanchen's words, and a flicker of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but she quickly returned to her worried look. She shook her head gently: "That being said, people's hearts are separated by their belly. Who can guarantee that they won't change in the future? I just hope that Xiaoxiao can give birth to the child safely and without any problems."

The atmosphere in the house subtly changed as the two people talked. The sky outside the window gradually brightened, and the light that came in made the outlines of the objects in the room clearer.

Fu Yanchen's eyes were firm, with a reassuring smile on his lips, and he said solemnly again: "Grandma, don't worry, I will do my best to protect Xiaoxiao and will never let anyone hurt her."

The old lady was still worried. She frowned slightly, moved closer, and lowered her voice and said, "That's good, but there's also Xiaomei. Every time I see her look at you, there's something wrong. I'm worried that she has bad intentions."

Fu Yanchen was stunned at first, then smiled helplessly, waved his hand and said, "No, grandma, you are too sensitive. I am not that charming. How can every woman like me?"

The old lady was relentless, staring intently at Fu Yanchen, and said seriously, "You may not be that charming, but you are rich. There are so many people in this world who would do anything for money. It's hard to guarantee that they don't like your money and want to use you as a big tree to climb up."

As she spoke, the old lady patted Fu Yanchen's arm gently, as if she was advising an ignorant child.

Fu Yanchen looked at the old lady's stubborn and somewhat childish appearance, and shook his head helplessly again. The bitter smile on the corner of his mouth showed his concern for the old woman but also a bit of a helpless feeling.

He raised his hand and gently rubbed his temple, trying to relieve the fatigue brought by this conversation, and then said in a gentle and patient tone: "Grandma, please relax. I really have no interest in those women with ulterior motives."

"I have some important contracts to finish quickly. How about you go to the yard and have some tea? There are some beautiful little fish there. It would be nice to watch them swim around and relieve your boredom."

When the old lady heard this, she glared at me and snorted in mock anger: "Drink tea, drink tea, all you do every day is ask me to drink tea. Why are you just like Xiaoxiao, just trying to coax me? Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I won't bother you here anymore. I'll go have some tea now."

After saying that, the old lady walked away from the study, muttering something to herself, angrily but also somewhat cutely.

Fu Yanchen stood there, watching the old lady's departing back, stunned for a long time, then sat back at the desk with a wry smile and devoted himself to processing the contract again. However, his thoughts would occasionally drift to the old lady's just-mentioned instructions that made him both angry and funny.

The rain stopped, and the sunlight penetrated the clouds, sprinkling on the streets, giving the city a warm golden edge.

After Nan Weiwei came out of Xu Xiaoxiao's house, she felt a little uncomfortable. Her grandmother's words made her feel uncomfortable.

As she walked, she took out her cell phone from her bag, slid her fingers quickly across the screen, and dialed Xiaomei's number.

Xiaomei's clear voice soon came from the other end of the phone: "Weiwei, what's wrong?"

Nan Wei smiled, her voice full of joy: "Xiao Mei, we haven't gone shopping together for a long time. I'd like to invite you out for a walk. It's a good opportunity to see what new good things have been released recently."

Xiaomei responded without hesitation: "Sure, I'm free, where should we go?"

Nan Weiwei thought about it and was about to speak when she suddenly remembered that Niu Mengmeng was also resting today. Her eyes lit up and she quickly said, "Wait a minute, I'll call another friend of mine, Niu Mengmeng. She's also resting today."

Having said that, he hung up the call with Xiaomei and quickly dialed Niu Mengmeng.

After the call was connected, Nan Weiwei said excitedly, "Mengmeng, are you free today? My friend Xiaomei and I are going shopping together. Why don't you come along? We can have fun together. If Xiaoxiao wasn't pregnant, it would be so much more fun if we went out together."

Niu Mengmeng giggled on the other end: "Yes, yes, I'm just worried that no one will play with me. So where can we meet later?"

Nan Weiwei thought for a moment and said, "Let's meet in front of the mall we often go to. Let's meet there first and then go shopping slowly."

After making an appointment with Niu Mengmeng, Nan Weiwei felt particularly happy. She walked towards the mall with a brisk pace, humming a little tune, and was looking forward to this happy date with her sisters.

Sunlight pours down outside the bustling shopping mall, and the huge glass curtain wall reflects dazzling light, as if calling people to step into this tempting consumer world.

Nan Weiwei walked into the mall in high heels, with brisk and somewhat ostentatious steps.

She was wearing a simple yet fashionable dress, with her long, shiny black hair casually draped over her shoulders. Her exquisite makeup made her already outstanding facial features even more bright and charming.

At this moment, she had completely lost the low-key and reserved demeanor she had in the past when she needed to hide her identity.

Xiaomei and Niu Mengmeng had been waiting at the entrance of the mall. Seeing Nan Weiwei's swaggering look, they looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Xiaomei walked forward and jokingly said, "Hey, is our Nan family's daughter going on a shopping spree?"

Nan Weiwei raised the corners of her mouth slightly, raised her eyebrows slightly, and revealed a slightly provocative and unruly smile.

"That's right!" she said, her tone revealing an indifferent attitude. "There's no need to hide it now anyway. You two both know my identity..."

Then, her words suddenly became a little excited, "And when I think about that woman having an affair with Nan Yifeng's father and now spending our Nan family's money like crazy, I feel like I've been scratched by a cat. I just can't feel happy at all!"

She became more and more excited as she spoke, waving her hands in the air as if she wanted to vent all her dissatisfaction.

Finally, Nan Weiwei seemed to have made up her mind and stamped her feet fiercely, "I must empty this mall today!"

Her voice echoed in the air with an unquestionable momentum.

Niu Mengmeng smiled and took Nan Weiwei's arm. "Alright, alright. I know you're angry. Let's go in and have a good look around. Let those who want to take advantage of us see that Miss Nan is not to be trifled with."

The three of them walked into the mall chatting and laughing. As soon as Nan Weiwei entered the mall, she became lively like a fish into the sea.

She first rushed into a high-end cosmetics store, picked up various popular shades of lipstick and foundation, and threw them into the shopping cart without even looking at the prices, muttering to herself, "I have to try all of these to see which one suits me best."

Then she moved to the clothing area and tried on clothes of various styles one after another.

From elegant long skirts to fashionable suits, from casual jeans to sexy short skirts, she will pack up whatever she likes.

The shop assistants followed her, busy as a whirlwind with happy smiles on their faces. After all, it's not easy to meet such a generous customer.

Xiaomei and Niu Mengmeng followed behind, helping Nan Weiwei carry her things while smiling and admonishing her: "Weiwei, that's enough. Don't buy too much."

Nan Weiwei waved her hands nonchalantly, "It's alright. I'm going to have a good time shopping today. Let those who want to take my man's money know that I, Nan Weiwei, am no pushover!"

After saying that, she continued her crazy shopping trip in the mall.

I just met someone in a jewelry store...
