Chapter 53: The Impressive Son-in-law

The Fu family’s faces changed dramatically.

Especially the eldest branch of the Fu family—every one of the four of them had jobs!

He—he was blatantly threatening them!

“Heavens above, just look at this! We’re being forced to our deaths—”

Old Madam Fu plopped down on the ground and started wailing.

Fu Mingxue: “...?”

Pulling the “I’ll die right here” act again?

She turned her head to look at the man beside her.

He simply spoke calmly, “It seems they really want me to handle things the way I suggested. Honey, let’s go home for now. In a bit, I’ll go find their supervisors at work—”

Fu Mingxue was completely swept away by how cool he looked.

My god, this man is amazing!

“—Okay!”

Without hesitation, the two of them turned and left.

Now the Fu family started to panic.

Even Old Madam Fu, who was still sitting on the ground wailing.

She hadn’t expected that even after making such a scene, the man didn’t even spare her a glance.

If it were anyone else, wouldn’t they at least help her up first?

Seeing the two about to walk out the door, Eldest Fu panicked. “Dad—”

He wasn’t sure if this man really had that kind of power, but what if he did?

Didn’t you hear how he talked about seeing their bosses as if he were meeting his own subordinates?

Third Fu was anxious too.

His family only had two people with jobs—they couldn’t afford to lose them.

“Dad, say something!”

Old Master Fu’s face was dark as he said, “Wait. We’ll pay the money.”

As soon as he said this, Third Fu breathed a sigh of relief.

Money or not, he didn’t care.

After all, it was the eldest branch who would benefit.

As long as he wasn’t the one paying, it was fine.

“No way, I don’t agree—” Old Madam Fu shrieked in protest.

“Shut up.” Old Master Fu barked, and Old Madam Fu immediately fell silent.

“Go get the money.”

Hearing this, Old Madam Fu was about to faint from anger.

“Where do we have that much money left?!”

She’d already forked out a lot for her eldest grandson’s wedding.

Besides, haven’t they spent money over the years? It’s not like they live on air.

Old Master Fu turned to his eldest daughter-in-law. “You too, give two hundred.”

Yan Hongwei instinctively wanted to refuse, but her husband tugged her sleeve. “Go get it.”

Yan Hongwei was furious.

Ten minutes later, Qin Wenhuo and Fu Mingxue returned.

A neighbor saw them coming back carrying things and was surprised. “Mingxue, didn’t you go to the old Fu house? Why are you back so soon?”

They’d seen them leave with things in hand—so they didn’t even leave the gifts?

Fu Mingxue sighed. “There was a bit of unpleasantness. We got kicked out.”

Neighbor: ...?

Kicked out?

That old Fu family is really something else.

Qin Wenhuo didn’t say a word.

He and Fu Mingxue went home.

Mother Fu had been worried, but when she saw her wonderful son-in-law still carrying those two bags, she was instantly angry.

“They bullied you?”

Before Qin Wenhuo could answer, Fu Mingxue chirped excitedly, “Mom, we got the money back! Your son-in-law is amazing—”

She rattled off everything that had happened at the old house.

Mother Fu listened, eyes wide in shock.

My god, is her son-in-law really this capable?

“Look, here’s all the money.” Fu Mingxue took out the money and put it in her mother’s hand.

Mother Fu looked down at the money in her palm—her eyes suddenly reddened.

Back then, when her husband died,

The condolence money that was sent over had been snatched away by the old Fu family.

At the time, her daughter was still so young—the Fu family had over a dozen people, all fierce and intimidating.

They even threatened that if she didn’t hand over the money, they’d take her daughter away and force her to remarry.

She’d been completely alone back then.

She figured, as long as she still had her job, it was fine if she got less money.

She never imagined that one day, her son-in-law would get that money back for her."
