Exchange Fate! She Saved the whole family and the Short-Lived Marquis!-Chapter 114: Show Some Decency!

Xiao Chengyu really had a momentary impulse to go back to the Fu family with Fu Changqin.

Xiao Chengyu waved his fingers, "Hurry back."

Fu Changqin had no choice but to carry the food box, moving quickly but carefully to avoid jostling it.

The Marquis Changping sure had a lot of demands.

Fu Changqin was just about to board the carriage when someone called out, "Mr. Fu."

With one foot already on board, Fu Changqin stopped and turned, seeing Lin Qingqing approaching.

Lin Qingqing walked over with a smile, "Mr. Fu, what a coincidence."

"Yeah, quite a coincidence," Fu Changqin nodded hastily, thinking to himself that he wasn’t really familiar with Lin Qingqing.

Moreover, Fu Shinian never hesitated to speak ill of Lin Qingqing at home, and Fu Changqin heard quite a bit, leaving him with a rather bad impression of her.

Besides, according to Fu Shinian, Lin Qingqing and Xiao Fengxing had something going on.

And it was when Xiao Fengxing and Fu Mingzhu were still engaged.

This made Fu Changqin dislike Lin Qingqing even more.

In Fu Shinian’s dreams, even after Fu Mingzhu married Xiao Fengxing, she and Lin Qingqing were still friends.

Lin Qingqing often visited the Marquis’ residence under the guise of a close friend to see Fu Mingzhu.

During that time, Fu Mingzhu was being looked down upon and ostracized, not receiving invitations to many events.

In Fu Mingzhu’s eyes, only Lin Qingqing braved the pressure from others, kept close ties with her, and frequently visited the Marquis’ residence to chat with her.

At that time, Fu Mingzhu was truly grateful to Lin Qingqing, increasingly seeing her as her best friend.

Little did she know, Lin Qingqing went to the Marquis’ residence to visit her, simply to seize the chance to secretly meet with Xiao Fengxing.

The Lin Qingqing in the dream had never faltered, being famously kind and talented in the capital.

Fu Changqin was naturally attracted to Lin Qingqing as well.

But now, Fu Shinian had long made the family see Lin Qingqing’s true colors.

Fu Changqin naturally held no good impression of Lin Qingqing.

Moreover, he was eager to get the osmanthus cake back for Fu Shinian to eat while it was still warm.

"The Spring Examination is coming up, how is Mr. Fu preparing?" Lin Qingqing asked.

"It’s alright, just the usual," Fu Changqin said hurriedly, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Lin Qingqing paused for a moment, "Ah? Nothing really, can’t I just have a few words with Mr. Fu?"

"If there’s nothing, then let’s not say anything," Fu Changqin said, "I’m busy."

Fu Changqin, holding the food box in one hand, waved with the other, "I’ll take my leave now."

"Uh, Mr. Fu," Lin Qingqing couldn’t believe it and watched Fu Changqin, startled that he was in such a rush to leave?

Because Fu Mingzhu and Xiao Fengxing called off their engagement, it also disrupted her plans to retaliate against the Fu family.

But soon, she set her sights on Fu Changqin instead.

Of course, she looked down on this fool from the Fu family.

But since this fool from the Fu family was indeed a fool, he was easy to manipulate. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The students at the Imperial College were all at her beck and call.

She figured that this fool from the Fu family would be easy to handle as well.

At that time, she could use Fu Changqin a little and see if Fu Mingzhu and Fu Shinian could still be so arrogant, repeatedly ruining her plans.

Who knew, Fu Changqin actually had such an attitude.

"Mr. Fu, I made these kneepads, please accept them." Lin Qingqing took a package from her maid and offered it to Fu Changqin.

Fu Changqin was so frightened that he quickly stepped back, "Miss Lin, what are you doing? How can I casually accept your things? Men and women should maintain proper distance, please have some respect!"

Lin Qingqing: "!!!"

"Mr. Fu misunderstood." Lin Qingqing said, "I am familiar with the Spring Examination due to my father’s influence, and I know that the testing environment inside is very harsh."

"During the Spring Examination, the capital is still quite cold, especially since one has to stay in those small compartments day and night, without even a proper door, it’s freezing, and after a long time the body can’t take it," Lin Qingqing said softly, "So I made quite a few kneepads to give to those attending the Spring Examination at the Imperial College."

"I was just about to go to the Imperial College and didn’t expect to run into Mr. Fu, so I thought I’d give you a pair as well," Lin Qingqing explained.

After she finished speaking, Fu Changqin’s expression changed.

But Lin Qingqing felt that Fu Changqin’s expression was somewhat peculiar and definitely not a good one.

"Miss Lin, these handmade intimate items, how can you give them away so casually to men? And give away so many at once?" Fu Changqin shook his head, "Have some respect!"

Fu Changqin couldn’t help but think that Fu Shinian said Lin Qingqing and Xiao Fengxing were involved long ago.

If they were to marry in the future, wouldn’t Xiao Fengxing wear a green hat full of grasslands?

Fu Changqin suddenly felt a little sympathetic towards Xiao Fengxing.

Forget it, that scoundrel isn’t worth any sympathy either.

If his family found out he had a moment of sympathy for Xiao Fengxing, his mother would definitely give him a beating.

Lin Qingqing: "!!!"

Lin Qingqing was furious, "How can it be called intimate? They are just kneepads."

Fu Changqin shook his head and said, "I have my family preparing such things for me, Miss Lin, you can keep them for someone else."

Lin Qingqing felt that what Fu Changqin said sounded so strange, as if she was casting a wide net to catch many fish.

"If Mr. Fu doesn’t care for it, then so be it, there’s no need to insult me like this." Lin Qingqing said with reddened eyes, tears threatening to fall.

In such a tearful state, anyone else would have comforted her by now.

But Fu Changqin still held onto what Xiao Chengyu had instructed.

Just then, Jing Lai hurriedly ran out, "Mr. Fu, why haven’t you left yet!"

Earlier, the marquis asked if Fu Changqin had left.

The gatekeeper replied that Fu Changqin was still chatting with Lin Qingqing at the door.

So Xiao Chengyu quickly sent him out.

"This... Osmanthus cake won’t taste good once it gets cold!" Jing Lai said urgently.

Fu Changqin: "...I didn’t want to, but Miss Lin kept holding me in conversation."

Lin Qingqing: "I didn’t!"

What was the matter with Fu Changqin!

A simple coincidence, yet from Fu Changqin’s mouth, it sounded like she was tying herself to him!

Although she indeed wanted to find an opportunity to coincidentally meet Fu Changqin and link them together.

But today was truly unintentional.

Just passing by the Marquis’ residence, she happened to see Fu Changqin, so she decided on a whim.

Jing Lai sighed and leaned closer to Fu Changqin, whispering, "Why bother with her! You’ll ruin your reputation for nothing."

"I think the same, I just want to leave quickly," Fu Changqin said, "You don’t know, this Lin Qingqing is trouble, she even wants to give me kneepads. I’m not even familiar with her!"

Afraid of being misunderstood, Fu Changqin emphasized again, "I have absolutely nothing to do with her!"

"I understand," Jing Lai said quickly.

Lin Qingqing couldn’t hear what the two were saying, only seeing them constantly whispering to each other.

Jing Lai said to Fu Changqin, "Mr. Fu, you’d better take this box back quickly."

Fu Changqin glanced over, and Jing Lai handed over a new box.

"This was kept warm on the stove by Shaoyao, as directed by the Marquis," Jing Lai said, "The Marquis was worried the box you have is already cold."
