Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 1667 1 point

"The gentleman said..."

Xu Xiaoxiao stared at Hou's mother with eager anticipation in her eyes, looking like a child who longed for candy but was unsure if she would get it. Hou's mother thought of her daughter when she was little, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

She gripped Mrs. Hou's arm tightly, her voice trembling with urgency, and asked, "What did Fu Yanchen say? Did he agree to let me eat it?"

Looking at Xu Xiaoxiao's anxious expression, Mrs. Hou sighed softly, a gentle yet somewhat helpless smile on her face, and said slowly, "The master said you can eat just a little bit, just a little bit, not too much. He specifically instructed that fried food is not good for pregnant women and babies, so you can only have a small taste."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao's bright eyes instantly dimmed, and her face was filled with disappointment, like a flower wilted by a storm.

She pouted and muttered softly, "Fine! I thought Fu Yanchen would let me eat a lot, but it was just a tiny bit. This little bit isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap."

As she spoke, she gestured with her hand to indicate the "little bit" she had imagined, her movements full of grievance.

Looking at Xu Xiaoxiao's disappointed and aggrieved expression, Hou's mother felt extremely distressed.

She gently patted Xu Xiaoxiao's shoulder, as if comforting a wounded little bird, and said earnestly, "Xiaoxiao, it's just a little bit, it's for your and the baby's good. After the baby is born, you can eat whatever you want. I'll cook delicious food for you every day and make up for all the things you want to eat."

Nan Weiwei, who was listening nearby, couldn't help but chime in, "Yeah, Xiaoxiao, there's no other way. Just listen to Fu Yanchen, otherwise if something happens to your health or the baby because of this fried chicken, Fu Yanchen will kill me. That madman of his, I can't handle him when he gets angry, I dare not provoke him."

As Nan Weiwei spoke, she exaggeratedly patted her chest, a look of lingering fear on her face.

Xiao Mei frowned after hearing Nan Weiwei's words and said with some disagreement, "Weiwei, Mr. Fu isn't that scary! I've met him a few times, and apart from not liking to smile and always having a stern face, I think he's quite nice."

“Look how much he cares for Xiaoxiao, he considers her in everything he does, and he tries his best to fulfill any request Xiaoxiao makes. Last time, Xiaoxiao wanted to eat the cake from that shop in the east of the city in the middle of the night, and he drove there to buy it without saying a word. When he came back, the cake was still warm.”

Nan Weiwei sneered after hearing Xiaomei's words, and said with a sneer, "Heh, Xiaomei, only you can say he's good. You didn't see his eyes when he gets angry. They're like a sharp knife that can scare people out of their wits."

"Last time I accidentally dirtied one of Xiaoxiao's clothes, the way he looked at me still sends chills down my spine when I think about it." As she spoke, Nan Weiwei deliberately shivered, as if that terrible scene was replaying in her mind.

As Xu Xiaoxiao listened to their back-and-forth argument, she felt a little disappointed, but she also knew that they were both doing it for her own good.

She took a deep breath, composed herself, and said, "Okay, okay, stop arguing. I know Fu Yanchen is doing this for my own good. I'll just have a little bit of fried chicken to satisfy my craving; I won't eat too much. After the baby is born, I'll definitely have a big feast."

"Yes, yes, yes," Nan Weiwei nodded hurriedly, her head bobbing like a chick pecking at rice, her face beaming with excitement and agreement, her eyes sparkling with joy. "Let's start eating quickly, the smell of this fried chicken burger is making my mouth water!"

Three girls sat around a coffee table laden with delicious food, their cheerful atmosphere spreading through the air like lively, leaping musical notes.

Nan Weiwei was the first to pick up a steaming hot hamburger, opened her mouth wide and took a big bite. A satisfied expression instantly bloomed on her face, her cheeks puffed out like little balls, and she mumbled indistinctly, "Wow, this hamburger is so delicious, it's just my taste!"

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed a golden, crispy French fry, dipped it in ketchup, and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation, eating it with great relish and making "smacking" sounds from time to time.

In contrast, Xu Xiaoxiao and Xiaomei seemed much more reserved.

Although Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the golden and tempting fried chicken with longing in her eyes, she resisted the temptation when she thought of the baby in her belly. She carefully tore off a small piece of chicken, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly, as if she were savoring the most precious delicacy in the world.

While eating, Xiaomei kept glancing at her figure, secretly worried that she would gain weight if she ate too much, so she only ate a little and hesitated for a long time before taking each bite.

Seeing how cautious they were, Nan Weiwei couldn't help but tease them, "Xiaomei, don't be so reserved! When there's delicious food in front of you, you should eat your fill! Enjoy life to the fullest while you can, don't let the golden goblet face the moon empty!"

As he spoke, he picked up another piece of fried chicken and waved it in front of them, the aroma wafting straight into Xiaomei's nose.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the fried chicken so close to her, swallowed hard, and finally shook her head, saying helplessly, "Weiwei, I can't eat too much. For the sake of the baby in my belly, I'll just have to hold back."

Xiaomei chimed in, "Yes, Weiwei, I've been controlling my diet lately and can't eat too many high-calorie foods."

Nan Weiwei sighed helplessly and continued to eat heartily.

After a while, Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it anymore, so she had to distract herself, reach out and pick up a piece of pork knuckle, put it in her mouth and slowly savor it. It was indeed delicious.

The soft, chewy texture and rich, mellow aroma instantly exploded on her taste buds, making her close her eyes and savor the wonderful flavor. She let out a satisfied sigh: "Mmm, pork knuckle is still the most satisfying! It's healthier than fried chicken."

Watching Xu Xiaoxiao eat happily, Mrs. Hou smiled with satisfaction.

She quietly took out her phone, opened the camera, and took a picture of Xu Xiaoxiao eating, and also recorded a video.

Then, she skillfully opened WeChat, found Fu Yanchen's chat window, sent the video, and attached a message: "Sir, Xiaoxiao ate some pork knuckle today and she's so happy. Don't worry, I'll take good care of her."

At this moment, Fu Yanchen was busy handling affairs at the company. His desk was piled high with documents and reports. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were focused and serious.

The silence in the office was broken by the ringing of a cell phone.

He picked up his phone and saw that it was a message and video sent by Hou's mother, so he gently clicked on the video.

In the video, Xu Xiaoxiao is sitting on the sofa, holding a piece of pork knuckle in her hand, eating with a happy expression, and there are still some oil stains on the corners of her mouth. She looks extremely cute.

As Fu Yanchen watched, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, revealing a gentle smile full of doting affection, as if the whole world had become warmer.

He put down the documents in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and quietly watched the video, as if he could feel Xu Xiaoxiao's happiness at that moment.

At this time...
