She walked forward with a big smile: "Xia Xia, long time no see."

"Sister Ji Yu," Ji Xia's face was still warm, her two hands were holding a small handbag and her ten fingers were showing Ji Yu that she was at a loss for words, "Long time no see."

"Are you done with your shoes, do you want me to try taking them off?" Ji Yu squatted down and watched the man's slender fingers constantly fiddling with the thin leather laces, "These kind of shoes are really inconvenient to put on and take off, but they look very cute."

"Sorry... Hengzhi..." Ji Xia actually thought that it was quite normal when she wore it but she didn't know why the leather strap was stuck in the metal buckle and couldn't be pulled out.

She lowered her head really feeling sorry for Fu Hengzhi for making him squat down in front of her family to untie her shoes.

Hearing this, Fu Hengzhi raised his head and gave Ji Xia a comforting look, and then looked at Ji Yu lightly: "Don't bother, I can do it." He looked at Ji Yu slightly before lowering his head again. Ji Yu felt that her heart skipped slightly because of that look.

This invisible aura makes people's legs soft, but what makes Ji Yu's legs soft is that such a powerful man was submissive in front of a woman.

It was Incredible.

When Fu Hengzhi finally unbuttoned Ji Xia's shoe, Ji Yu immediately took Ji Xia's hand and greeted the two warmly into the living room.

"Xia Xia, it's been a long time since you came home to eat. Mom and Dad prepared a lot of your favorite dishes today!"

Ji Xia was pulled all the way into the kitchen by Ji Yu. When she saw the dishes on the table, she was a little disappointed even though she knew that her aunt and uncle didn't know what dishes she liked to eat, but she was still a little upset.

She is very afraid of fishy things so she doesn't touch anything in the water. Even the shrimp pasta must be cooked with the freshest live shrimps and then covered with a strong creamy taste before she could eat it but Ji Yu especially likes to eat seafood. When the occasional whim strikes her, Ji Xia could only eat the vegetables.

In addition, probably because she heard that Fu Hengzhi likes seafood, Ji Xia can only eat one or two of the seven or eight dishes at the table. After she was seated, she looked at the dishes on the table and felt a little helpless for a while.

Fu Hengzhi followed the middle-aged couple into the kitchen. He saw Ji Xia sat at the table blankly and when glanced at the dishes on the table, he understood immediately. He pulled the chair besides her and sat down and squeezed her palm under the table.

Ji Xia turned her head to look over, and Fu Hengzhi leaned into her ear and lowered his voice: "Just eat a little bit of it and we'll go have dinner when it's over."

Rather than to say the seafood on the table was good, it was better to say that it was prepared on a rush to satisfy his taste. Fu Hengzhi had no other thoughts apart from feeling distressed that Ji Xia had to pad her stomach with vegetables, but she had no other idea.

"Xia Xia, don't hold on to Hengzhi and keep whispering." Before Ji Xia could speak, her aunt's reproachful eyes had already looked over, "You have to eat well when you eat, understand?"

"I suddenly remembered something and told Xia Xia, I'm sorry." Fu Hengzhi raised his head to answer and saw the middle-aged woman laughing shyly:

"Oh, it's Hengzhi, it's alright, we haven't started yet, don't worry."

The difference in treatment seems too obvious. After a while, the middle-aged man on the side couldn't stand it, and he helped a little: "What nonsense are you talking about again? What's wrong with a young couple chatting?"

"Dad, Mom is just afraid that Xia Xia will just talk and not eat again. Ji Yu naturally coquettishly coddled with his father, then looked at Fu Hengzhi with a smile:"But with Mr. Fu around, this kind of thing definitely won't happen. Mom, don't worry about it, Xia Xia is no longer a child."

Just with a few words, she could change the atmosphere completely.

Fu Hengzhi glanced at Ji Yu briefly again, and felt more and more that it was not easy for Ji Xia, a little white rabbit who grew up in a fox's den, to become what she is today.

A meal is no different from socializing. Fu Hengzhi doesn't plan to stay at Ji's house at all. After eating, he plans to leave with Ji Xia, who only took two bites of dishes. The middle-aged couple took Ji Yu to send the two to the entrance: "Hengzhi, you haven't touched your chopsticks very much today. Is the dish unpalatable?"

"I'm afraid of fishy food."

The information was wrong, so the faces of the couple turned ugly. Instead, Ji Yu smiled naturally: "Then next time Mr. Fu comes back, I will cook and definitely satisfy you."

"Okay, Next time if I have a chance."

Fu Hengzhi took Ji Xia's hand and nodded, "Today we will go back first, thank you for your hospitality."

"Hengzhi...are you feeling unwell?" The two of them didn't even move their chopsticks at the table just now. Ji Xia had always wanted to ask him, but her aunt kept pulling Fu Hengzhi into a conversation, so she couldn't really find a chance at all.

"No, it's just that I don't have any appetite today."

Fu Hengzhi was actually a little unhappy when he saw the dishes on the table.

In fact, Fu Hengzhi had always understood what they meant. It is not uncommon to adopt a girl and raise her to replace their daughter as an object to trade for opportunities and many weak family businesses have done this kind of thing.

But what they did was really ugly, and it was not difficult for Fu Hengzhi to think of the extent to how badly she must have been treated by the family during the ten years if they act like that in front of him.

What made Fu Hengzhi even more distressed was that he had asked Ji Xia why she she had gone to this extent after she had agreed to his request for marriage. At that time, her answer was:

"Because my uncle and aunt raised me so well and they treated me well, so I want to repay them."

At that time, the girl was sitting on a chair and her hands were so nervous that she held her kneecaps tightly, and when she raised her head to look at him, her clear eyes seemed to be transparent like clear amber.

They don't deserve her kindness.
