Mrs. Fu was genuinely worried.
After all, her daughter was so pretty and delicate.
If there were human traffickers on the train, how could she not be targeted?
She had been planning on taking her there herself.
But now, with her wonderful son-in-law going along, she wouldn’t have to worry about a thing.
Fu Mingxue: ...?
Qin Wenhao said earnestly, "Mom, don’t worry. I considered that as well. Ming... Mingxue has never traveled far from home, so it’s a perfect opportunity for me to go with her."
"Oh, that’s wonderful! It’s settled then. You can come and celebrate the New Year with us, and then you two can leave on the second day."
"Okay!"
Fu Mingxue stared in disbelief as the two of them finalized the decision.
’I’m the one this is all about—can’t they at least ask for my opinion?’
’Does my opinion not matter at all?’
"Mom, actually, I can—"
’She had lived a whole life, for crying out loud. Could she really not handle a few human traffickers?’
’Do I look that gullible?’
Mrs. Fu cut her off directly:
"Go check on the chicken I’m stewing in the kitchen. See if it’s done. Also, taste it for salt. If it’s not salty enough, add some."
"Oh, right, son-in-law, do you prefer your food lighter or saltier?"
"Mom, I’m fine with the usual seasoning."
"Great. Mingxue, did you hear that? Just make it the normal way."
Fu Mingxue: ...?
’Wait a minute, Mom, could you please let me finish a sentence?’
──
The mother and daughter of the Bai Family also made it home, panting for breath.
They felt like their legs were about to fall off.
It took a long while for the two of them to catch their breath.
Mrs. Bai cursed through clenched teeth, "Heavens, that bitch Xu Zifeng, I hope she dies a horrible death—"
’Now the whole affair had implicated Song Yan, and that was unacceptable—she was counting on him to get ahead and live a life of luxury.’
Her eyes darted back and forth as she instantly thought of a way to distract her mother.
"—Mom, Fu Mingxue got married. Her husband is at her house right now, but Old Mrs. Fu has no idea, does she? Her precious granddaughter is married; as the grandparents of the Fu family, shouldn’t they go pay a visit and see their new grandson-in-law?"
Mrs. Bai’s eyes lit up instantly.
’That’s right! Those two old Fu geezers are the only ones who can put that bitch Xu Zifeng in her place!’
’And even if they can’t, it would still be great to cause some trouble for Xu Zifeng and her daughter.’
"I’m going to the Fu family right now to share the ’good news’—"
Her energy had returned in a flash.
Her legs no longer ached, and she didn’t feel tired at all.
Watching her mother leave, Bai Siqi couldn’t help but let a cold smirk form on her lips. ’Fu Mingxue, don’t think you can steal everything from me that easily.’
’Dream on.’
’In your past life, you were like a dog.’
’In this life, you’ll still have to live like one!’
