Chapter 58: Chapter 58

As soon as Fu Yinli’s car left, the Jiang family’s car entered the courtyard, the two cars passing each other.

The Jiang and Su families met, only to see Tong Yan, not Su Lingzhi.

Jiang Chenglin asked, "Where is Lingzhi?"

Old Master Su’s face darkened, "She went to the hospital to change her bandages."

"Who else could it be, if not someone from the Fu family."

Old Master Su poured them tea, hosting them warmly: "Just now, Fu Yinli admitted to me personally, it was he who went to your Jiang family, our Zhizhi did not know about it. The Fu family is not someone we can mess with, their matters are not something our Su family will interfere in anymore."

Madam Jiang, wise as she was, said, "It seems our two families are ultimately not destined to become in-laws."

"Madam Jiang, your words are incorrect. If Zhizhi cannot marry, Yanyan can, after all she is our true Su family member."

When it comes to family interests, the Su family kicks people aside, bringing forward the real daughter without even questioning, this is the cold-blooded nature of businessmen.

Tong Yan instantly became uneasy, "Grandpa, how could you..."

Before she could finish, Old Master Su immediately stopped her, "Is this a place for you to speak?"

Tong Yan looked at her pale-faced, too frightened to make a sound.

However, Madam Jiang didn’t even give Tong Yan a glance, "Our Chenglin is the successor groomed by our Jiang family, of course he needs a dignified and proper lady to match him. Tong Yan is the daughter you just acknowledged, even you cannot be sure of her nature. Suddenly letting go and throwing her to our Jiang family, what do you take our Jiang family for?"

With these words, Madam Su became unhappy, "It was mistaken identity back then, causing Yanyan to be lost outside, it is our Su family’s debt to her. No matter what, she is our Su family member, Madam Jiang, aren’t your words a bit too harsh?"

Madam Jiang calmly replied, "I am speaking the truth. If you feel my words are harsh, then I won’t say much more. Let’s just call off the marriage between our two families."

Being able to tie with the Jiang family was a blessing for the Su family, now the marriage was suddenly called off, taking them by surprise.

"Alright, let’s end the conversation here today. I should return to Yan City."

"My grandson took care of your foster daughter for half a month. If you truly respect our Jiang family, you should cut off ties with the Fu family. In the end, it’s our two families that lack the fate."

After speaking, Madam Jiang had already taken Jiang Chenglin’s hand, walking away decisively without giving them any chance to negotiate.

The doctor, noticing a different person accompanying Su Lingzhi for her bandage change, someone he had never seen before, asked curiously, "Is your friend not available to help you today?"

Su Lingzhi replied, "He’s not here."

The doctor glanced at the man holding her hand tightly, said nothing more, and quietly applied the medication.

Once done, he gave a few reminders.

Fu Yinli asked, "What’s the status of her eyes, and when can she expect her vision to recover at the fastest?"

"It’s identified as a second-degree optic nerve damage, after surgery combined with medication, it will take at least two months to fully recover normal vision."

"What about postoperative sequelae?"

"Rest assured, there were no problems during those days of hospitalization, so there are no sequelae left behind." The doctor frowned slightly, unable to refrain from reminding, "Miss Su’s current health condition requires moderation in conjugal relations."

At these words, Su Lingzhi’s face instantly turned red.

With no apparent reason, the doctor suddenly brought up such things in front of them.

Fu Yinli and the doctor exchanged glances, seemingly engaging in an invisible struggle.

Fu Yinli’s eyes relaxed, relieved: "The doctor is right to remind us."

After speaking, Fu Yinli turned his gaze back to Su Lingzhi, wrapping his arm around her waist, leading her out of the consultation room.

Su Lingzhi’s face was still somewhat warm.

After entering the elevator, he suddenly kissed her face.

Su Lingzhi instinctively moved aside a bit, a little at a loss.

Fu Yinli’s dark eyes tightened, puzzled by her instinctive avoidance.

Calming herself, Su Lingzhi said, "Next time you kiss me, can you let me know in advance? I can’t see, it feels unsafe."

Understanding the reason for her resistance, Fu Yinli no longer took it to heart, responding, "Okay."

After getting the medication from the pharmacy, Fu Yinli carried her into the car.

Before Fu Yinli could speak, Su Lingzhi took the initiative to say, "Can I ask you for a favor?"

"Since when did things become so distant between us?"

Su Lingzhi remained silent.

After a moment of silence, Fu Yinli spoke, "What do you want to do, tell me."

"A few days ago I had Xiaoxi help me rent a house, but I still need a housekeeper."

As things have spiraled with the Su family, she didn’t want to return to that house, nor owe them anything.

Fu Yinli asked, "Do you want to move out of the Su family?"

Su Lingzhi nodded, "I want to find a quieter place to stay, the address is in Jing Garden."

Upon hearing this, Housekeeper Zhao in the driver’s seat instinctively glanced at the rearview mirror.

Fu Yinli averted his gaze from her, telling Housekeeper Zhao, "Go to Jing Garden."

Upon reaching Jing Garden, Housekeeper Zhao was about to press his fingerprint to open the door, suddenly remembering something, he promptly stepped aside, waiting for Su Lingzhi to unlock it.

Along the way through the villa’s main entrance, all the doors were unlocked by Su Lingzhi using her fingerprint.

She had rented this villa for three months, the lease contract was signed during the viewing.

The agent representing all three parties said the villa’s owner had been abroad for several years and was not expected to return soon, so they put it up for rent.

It was agreed that apart from the second-floor study and the master bedroom, the rest of the areas were freely accessible.

She chose this place because its environment was good, suitable for recuperation.

According to Xiaoxi, the owner hasn’t returned for so many years, yet the villa was well-maintained.

Back when she came to view the place, both the budget and environment matched, so she decided on this location.

At this moment, Fu Yinli gave an order, "Hire two detail-oriented maids."

After Housekeeper Zhao left, the villa was left with just the two of them.

Fu Yinli personally poured her a glass of warm water, asking her, "Can I stay here?"

Laughably, this was his villa, yet staying had become something he needed her permission for.

Su Lingzhi took the cup, sipping it lightly, "Don’t you have a home?"

"Can’t I live with you if I have a home?"

Su Lingzhi hesitated for a moment, then said, "The study and the second-floor master bedroom are off-limits."

Fu Yinli’s expression froze momentarily, he sighed silently, sitting down beside her.

"Aren’t you going back to England?"

"The difficult matters are handled, I will occasionally visit." Get full chapters from novelFɪre.net

"Do your family know you are back?"

After a while of silence from him, Su Lingzhi closed her mouth, gradually understanding that he disliked others prying into his matters.

If that’s the case, she won’t ask about it in the future.
