"What? This guy is actually a bricklayer?"
"Wow! This is a real, bona fide construction worker. Xu Yifei, our national goddess, is actually involved with a construction worker who didn't even finish middle school. I'm speechless!"
"Not only a construction worker, but I reckon he's also really poor. Everyone knows Yinlong Village is a nationally famous impoverished village, right? And look at this guy, Fu Shan... Tsk, he looks utterly impoverished, and he's all grubby. What exactly is Goddess Xu after? Is she after his grime? Or his utter poverty?"
Once Fu Shan's background was exposed online, it caused an uproar across the entire network.
The vast majority of netizens were stunned.
Everyone expressed that they never expected Fu Shan to be this kind of person.
Just this?
Just him? He dares to hold Xu Yifei's hand, and go on sweet dates with her?
Besides being shocked, the comment section was also flooded with messages. Everyone questioned Xu Yifei's taste and aesthetic sense. Many netizens and fans went to Xu Yifei's Weibo to leave comments, asking about the relationship between Xu Yifei and Fu Shan, and urging Xu Yifei to stay away from him.
Some netizens and some extreme Xu Yifei fans even directly "human-fleshed" Fu Shan's Weibo account. On this account, which had only posted one Weibo and hadn't been updated in ages, they went wild, dissing Fu Shan and nearly verbally abusing him to the point of no return.
This was nothing short of a full-blown internet attack.
The next day, morning.
After a good night's sleep, when the morning sun shone through the window onto the wide and soft bed, Xu Yifei, with a smile still on her lips, slowly woke up.
She didn't feel like staying in bed. She opened her eyes and got up directly. After quickly washing up, she held the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant in her hands, put on her slippers, and walked towards the living room.
As she walked, Xu Yifei kept looking down at the jade pendant in her hand, constantly caressing it, looking like she couldn't put it down.
And this scene happened to be seen by Xu's Mother Li Lilin, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching the news.
"Yifei, you're up so early? Did you have a good time with Fu Shan yesterday? What time did you get back? Where did you two go? What are you holding? You seem to be absolutely fascinated by it!"
Xu's Mother Li Lilin waved at Xu Yifei and asked with a string of questions, smiling all the while.
Hearing this, Xu Yifei's pretty face couldn't help but flush, revealing a hint of shyness.
She quickly walked over to Li Lilin and presented the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant she was holding: "Mom, look, isn't this Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant beautiful?"
"Fu Shan gave this to you?"
Li Lilin raised an eyebrow.
She guessed correctly.
"Yes, Fu Shan gave it to me. Yesterday, we went to an auction, and he specifically bid on it for me."
Xu Yifei nodded with a smile, happiness radiating from her eyes and eyebrows.
She looked like a woman completely immersed in happiness and adoration.
Seeing her daughter like this, Xu's Mother Li Lilin's lips also curled up slightly. She glanced at the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant, which her daughter was presenting to her like a treasure, and raised an eyebrow:
"How much did this jade pendant cost?"
Xu Yifei smiled at the question and immediately held up two slender fingers in front of Xu's Mother Li Lilin, indicating the price.
"Two million?"
Xu's Mother Li Lilin thought for a moment and tentatively asked.
After all, she had also lived with Fu Shan for a while.
Xu's Mother Li Lilin knew a little about her future son-in-law's financial capabilities and his extravagant spending habits.
Since it was a gift for her own daughter, Fu Shan wouldn't be stingy.
Moreover, this jade pendant was purchased at an auction last night, so its price wouldn't be cheap.
Considering all of the above, Li Lilin had come up with a price of two million.
In Li Lilin's opinion, this price should be more than sufficient.
Who would have thought that Xu Yifei would shake her head upon hearing this?
"Mom, really! How could you possibly buy this Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant at that price? It was a token of love given by Emperor Xiaozong of Ming to Empress Zhang. Two million, how could you possibly buy it?"
"What? A token of love given by Emperor Xiaozong of Ming to Empress Zhang?"
Hearing her daughter's words, Xu's Mother Li Lilin was clearly shocked.
It seemed she hadn't expected this seemingly ordinary jade pendant to have such a significant background.
"Then... how much is it worth? Twenty million?"
Li Lilin pondered for a moment before tentatively asking again.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yifei still shook her head.
However, this time, Xu Yifei didn't intend to keep her mother in suspense any longer. She shook her finger and directly gave the answer: "Add a zero to twenty million."
This time, Li Lilin was truly shocked: "What? Two hundred million?! Fu Shan spent two hundred million to buy this jade pendant for you?"
She widened her eyes, staring at the jade pendant her daughter was holding, examining it from all angles.
Inwardly:
Fu Shan really dotes on his precious daughter.
He spent two hundred million to buy a jade pendant to give to Yifei.
That boy Fu Shan really knows how to spend money!
"Yifei, although Fu Shan has money, you're not exactly poor yourself. But, you can't be so extravagant. What did Mom teach you growing up? You need to be considerate of your man and not waste his money!"
After thinking for a moment, Xu's Mother Li Lilin couldn't help but advise.
These two children are just too young and impetuous.
Being too extravagant isn't good!
再多的錢,也經不住這麽謔謔啊.
"Mom, I'm not being inconsiderate of Fu Shan, or wasting his money."
Xu Yifei pouted, looking aggrieved.
Hearing this, Xu's Mother Li Lilin glanced at the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant in her hand, then shot her a sideways glance.
That look clearly said:
You haven't been wasting Fu Shan's money? Then what about this jade pendant? Two hundred million!
A full two hundred million! "It's not the same thing!"
Meeting her mother's disapproving gaze, Xu Yifei, who instantly understood the meaning behind it, quickly waved her hands.
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but blush, slightly lowering her head, her fingers unconsciously stroking the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant in her palm.
"This is Fu Shan's proposal gift to me, of course I have to accept it. Mom, last night, Fu Shan proposed to me. I... I have already agreed to Fu Shan's proposal."
Hearing this, the vast living room fell into an eerie silence for a moment. The next second, Xu's Mother Li Lilin was overjoyed:
"Fu Shan proposed to you last night? Yifei, you agreed? Wonderful! Wonderful! This is great! It's really wonderful!"
She wondered why the magpies on the branches outside the window were chirping incessantly this morning.
So, there was such a happy occasion.
She had been worried that Fu Shan hadn't made any move, showing no intention of marrying her daughter, and she had suspected that the boy might not be very bright.
Who would have thought...
It turned out that this boy knew what he was doing. He had planned it all along.
Haha, she really wasn't mistaken!
This Fu Shan kid is reliable!
