Fu Yan Ting asking Yan Xi to write a love letter truly put her on the spot.
After returning to her room, Yan Xi began searching for love letter templates online.
Having researched a great deal, Yan Xi picked up her pen to write the love letter.
The next morning, as soon as Fu Yan Ting woke up, Yan Xi, with dark circles under her eyes, presented her love letter to him.
Fu Yan Ting glanced at Yan Xi and said indifferently, "I'm hungry. Don't you feel it? Go make me some food."
Ever since Fu Yan Ting had tasted Yan Xi's cooking, his palate had become exceedingly discerning.
Now, he had no appetite for any delicacies and only craved Yan Xi's homemade dishes.
Since this woman had come to him willingly, Fu Yan Ting was not about to let this opportunity pass him by.
Upon hearing this, Yan Xi placed the love letter in front of Fu Yan Ting and then went to the kitchen, habitually opening the refrigerator to see what ingredients were inside.
To Yan Xi's shock, Fu Yan Ting's refrigerator was fully stocked with everything imaginable.
Even a restaurant might not have as wide a variety of ingredients as Fu Yan Ting's refrigerator.
Yan Xi looked at Fu Yan Ting indifferently and said irritably, "You don't know how to cook, so why did you buy so many ingredients?"
Hearing Yan Xi's question, Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. He looked at Yan Xi and retorted, "What? Are people who don't know how to cook not allowed to eat?"
Yan Xi took a deep breath. Fine, you're rich and willful. It's perfectly reasonable for you to even own a supermarket.
Watching Yan Xi busily working in the kitchen, Fu Yan Ting's thoughts drifted back five years to when they had just gotten married. Back then, Yan Xi would proactively cook for him to please him.
Whether he wanted to eat it or not.
Fu Yan Ting fondly remembered the Yan Xi of those days, who constantly tried to please him and busied herself cooking for him.
Not wanting to dwell on the past any further, Fu Yan Ting began reading the love letter Yan Xi had written for him, ignoring the figure busy in the kitchen.
Yan Xi finished cooking and set the meal on the dining table, calling Fu Yan Ting to eat.
Fu Yan Ting walked to the dining table with a dark expression. He didn't immediately pick up his chopsticks to eat, his gaze fixed intently on Yan Xi.
Yan Xi sensed something was wrong. She asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"In your eyes, am I that terrible?"
Yan Xi was bewildered, not knowing where Fu Yan Ting's words were coming from.
Seeing Yan Xi feigning ignorance, he directly threw the love letter she had written at her.
Seeing the love letter, Yan Xi finally understood what Fu Yan Ting meant.
But she couldn't be blamed for this.
What the internet taught her was to follow her heart and write about her genuine impression of a person.
This was precisely Yan Xi's impression of Fu Yan Ting.
He had a bad temper, a difficult personality, and often spoke sarcastically and mockingly.
Without a second thought, Yan Xi wrote exactly as she had been taught online.
Now that Fu Yan Ting had seen it, Yan Xi suddenly felt that she might have written a bit too much.
Yan Xi wanted to explain, but Fu Yan Ting didn't give her the chance.
He picked up his chopsticks and said lightly, "Let's eat."
With that, he began to wolf down the food.
By the time Yan Xi reacted and was ready to explain to Fu Yan Ting, he suddenly put down his chopsticks, stood up, and walked out. After a couple of steps, Fu Yan Ting stopped but didn't turn back. He said, "I won't be back tonight. I have an engagement."
Then, he left without looking back.
He didn't even give Yan Xi time to react.
Yan Xi watched Fu Yan Ting's retreating back, biting her lips. Yan Xi felt that by returning to Fu Yan Ting's side this time, it was as if they had returned to how things were, yet they were also drifting further apart.
This feeling made Yan Xi uncomfortable.
Yan Xi knew that in the past, to protect Fu Yan Ting from harm by the Yao family, she had done many things that were misunderstood.
But Yan Xi had never expected that now, she would have to personally hurt Fu Yan Ting.
Yan Xi had never intended to do anything to hurt Fu Yan Ting, but in the end, Yan Xi was the one who had hurt him the most.
How ironic.
After Fu Yan Ting left, Yan Xi was bored and alone at home. She wanted to go out for a stroll. She hadn't properly explored Yan Cheng since returning.
Since she had nothing to do, Yan Xi decided to go for a walk.
As soon as she stepped out the door, she was stopped by the bodyguards. Yan Xi frowned, not understanding why these bodyguards were blocking her.
Xin Yi stepped forward and explained, "Miss Yan, our boss is currently overseeing an election. He cannot afford any mistakes. We'll have to trouble you."
Previously, Xin Yi would call Yan Xi "Young Madam." However, ever since Yan Xi divorced Fu Yan Ting and did those things that hurt him, Xin Yi's attitude towards her had changed.
Even his address had shifted from "Young Madam" to "Miss Yan."
However, Yan Xi paid no mind to all this.
Looking at Xin Yi, Yan Xi didn't get angry. She patiently explained, "I just want to go out for a walk. I promise I won't affect Fu Yan Ting. Is that okay?"
Xin Yi shook his head and refused.
Yan Xi, helpless, returned to her room.
As soon as Yan Xi turned around, she heard the voice of a Fu family servant behind her.
"Old Madam, please walk slowly."
Yan Xi turned back and saw Mu Qing Xiang.
Mu Qing Xiang's impression of Yan Xi had initially improved when Fu Yan Ting was hospitalized. However, after hearing Xin Yi's words and learning of Yan Xi's intentions in approaching Fu Yan Ting this time, Mu Qing Xiang's previous good impression of Yan Xi vanished entirely.
Unfortunately, immersed in her own world, Yan Xi was completely oblivious to all this.
Looking at Mu Qing Xiang, Yan Xi politely greeted her.
"Old Madam, long time no see."
"Haven't we just seen each other not long ago? Why is it now a long time no see?"
Mu Qing Xiang's voice was gentle, yet it instilled a sense of intimidation in Yan Xi.
Yan Xi knew that due to past events, Mu Qing Xiang had always misunderstood her.
Yan Xi looked at Mu Qing Xiang, wanting to explain, but didn't know how.
"Xi Xi, since you've chosen to return to Yan Ting's side, I hope you can support each other until old age and live out this life well. I will not allow my grandson to be hurt again. Can you promise me this?"
Mu Qing Xiang was a very shrewd woman.
She knew Fu Yan Ting's feelings for Yan Xi.
She did not oppose Yan Xi being with Fu Yan Ting, but she warned Yan Xi not to do anything to hurt him again.
Yan Xi was not foolish; she understood the threat in Mu Qing Xiang's words.
However, Yan Xi truly couldn't promise Mu Qing Xiang, especially since her return and proximity to Fu Yan Ting were driven by a purpose.
Although this was not what Yan Xi wanted, she had no other choice.
