"Didn't you say that I took advantage of your grandfather, so now I'm here to have a child with you? Then you better not give me that chance." When Bai Yu saw how this tyrant was so angry that he couldn't speak, she couldn't resist smiling. Surprisingly, Fu Yunzhe's vision suddenly recovered!
Although it was only two seconds before he saw darkness again, it was enough for him to see her sneaking a grin. Fu Yunzhe felt ashamed. He couldn't help but snatch the towel from her hand and knead it into a ball as if to vent his anger.
Bai Yu exclaimed in surprise at this, "You can see?"
Fu Yunzhe was mildly stunned. Then, he sneered and said, "If I can see, the first thing I'd do is throw you out of the Fu family."
Bai Yu figured that made sense. If he recovered, he could force her out immediately. But it didn't matter to her because their marriage was only a deal. Once she completed the deal with her father, she could accept the benefits with a clear conscience. By then, she'd be more than happy to comply if he wanted a divorce. Who would want to live with a tyrant anyway?
Due to her yearning for a bright future, Bai Yu pulled herself together and asked, "Where's the first aid kit?"
However, Fu Yunzhe stopped talking again. Bai Yu could only search the room herself. Alas, after searching around, she only found an old band-aid. She recalled that whatever medicine Fu Yunzhe took was sent by Butler Zhuang, so it seemed like she had to ask him instead. Before she left, she forced the band-aid on Fu Yunzhe. Because his wound hurt when Bai Yu pressed on it, he looked even fiercer.
Bai Yu pretended not to notice. After taking out her phone and ordering takeout, she said, "I'm going to return the slingshot now. Also, Fu Xiangchen invited me to dinner. I can't be rude by being absent, but I'll bring the first aid kit and food along when I come back."
Fu Yunzhe turned away. "Whatever you do is your business. You don't have to tell me."
"Alright." Bai Yu didn't expect him to be friendly anyway. She picked up the slingshot and left. After she was gone, Fu Yunzhe wanted to tear off the band-aid, but for some reason, he didn't.
Bai Yu ran into Butler Zhuang on the second floor right after leaving their room. She quickly asked him about the first aid kit.
After hearing her request, Butler Zhuang said coldly, "First Young Madam, you'll need Madam's permission to take anything from me."
Bai Yu didn't think that she would need Lin Jing's approval on such a small matter. However, not too long ago, Fu Yunzhe had dangled her precious son in mid-air, so how was she to ask Lin Jing for anything?
"Butler Zhuang, please make an exception."
Mockery appeared in Butler Zhuang's gaze as if to ridicule Bai Yu for not knowing her place. "If you need it urgently, you can go out and buy it now."
If Bai Yu went out now, what if that devilish brat tortured Fu Yunzhe again? Just as Bai Yu was caught in a dilemma...
"Sister-in-law?"
Bai Yu looked over to see Fu Xiangchen walking towards her.
"Second Young Master," Butler Zhuang quickly greeted upon seeing him.
"Sister-in-law, the food is ready. I was just about to invite you downstairs." Fu Xiangchen glanced at Butler Zhuang, then asked Bai Yu, "Do you have instructions for Butler Zhuang?"
Bai Yu hesitated before answering truthfully, "Yes, I was asking Butler Zhuang for a first aid kit."
"It's for Big Brother, isn't it?"
Bai Yu felt nervous about his question, but compared to the rest of the Fu family, he was the only one who showed her kindness. Regardless of whether he was being genuine, she nodded.
Seeing this, Fu Xiangchen immediately instructed, "Butler Zhuang, just send whatever sister-in-law wants to her room."
Butler Zhuang lowered his head without using the same excuse as before. "Understood."
Bai Yu couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. "Thank you."
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to be so polite." As Fu Xiangchen took in this woman's appearance, his tone further softened. "The servants here are insensible, so if you have any problems in the future, just come to me."
"Okay," Bai Yu replied weakly.
After that, Fu Xiangchen invited her to dinner again, and Bai Yu followed him downstairs.
"The slingshot in your hand is Xuyin's, isn't it?"
"Yes, he left the slingshot behind, so I was about to return it to him." On the way downstairs, as Bai Yu was distracted by Fu Xiangchen, she accidentally stepped on a wet puddle and slipped. "Ah!" She quickly grabbed the handrail beside her.
To her surprise, a hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her into an embrace. "Sister-in-law, the floor is slippery, please be careful." Having said that, Fu Xiangchen retracted his hand.
Bai Yu stared at Fu Xiangchen in shock, but when she saw the concern in his eyes, she couldn't bring herself to condemn his actions that had just overstepped boundaries. She could only thank him awkwardly and hastened down the stairs.
