Chapter 683: 0673 One Hundred Yuan Chapter 683: 0673 One Hundred Yuan Since it was for a late-night snack, Aunt Zhang prepared low-fat, low-sugar, and low-salt foods.

She made some pumpkin porridge, corn, and purple sweet potatoes, all of which are fairly easy to digest.

Fu Qiyuan wasn’t very hungry, but he came downstairs because of Su Ran.

As Su Ran was serving herself, she also conveniently portioned out the man’s share.

The two sat in the dining room, chewing slowly and savoring the late-night snack.

In the middle of their meal, Fu Qiyuan suddenly said,
“About the dowry, do you think we should notify the Su Family?”

Su Ran took a sip of porridge and pondered for a few seconds.

“Indeed, we should mention it to Grandpa!”

As for her father, Su Hongde, and Grandma Wen Peipei, there was no need.

If they didn’t consider her a part of the family, naturally, she felt the same!

If it wasn’t for Fu Qiyuan wanting to follow the procedure, she would have thought the dowry was unnecessary!

The grandfather had given her all his properties, so naturally, he didn’t care about a dowry.

But just because he didn’t care didn’t mean others wouldn’t!

The Su Family was left with nothing, and others might very well be dreaming of making a fortune and rising again!

“Does your grandfather know about us?”

Su Ran nodded her head, “Yes, I’ve mentioned it to him!”

“Hmm.”

Su Ran swallowed her food and looked up at Fu Qiyuan.

“But how will you sort out the dowry? Even though I’ve cut ties with the Su Family, in the eyes of others, ‘the flesh may be torn, yet the bones connected’. The Su Family is still my family, and those people are still my relatives in name.

“Those people are eyeing us like prey, and you going there to present the dowry is like walking into a lion’s den, isn’t it?”

Fu Qiyuan chuckled, “Don’t you have faith in your man?”

Su Ran pursed her lips and looked down silently.

“Alright, as long as you know what you’re doing, it’s fine. Those things are gifts you gave me, as long as they don’t end up in the hands of the Su Family! But speaking of which…”

She looked intently at Fu Qiyuan, leaning toward him with a mysterious air and asked,
“What do you plan to give me?”

Fu Qiyuan observed her curious expression and couldn’t help but chuckle, reaching out to pinch her cheek, his words laced with amusement.

“How about I give myself to you?”

Su Ran couldn’t help but roll her eyes and shook off his hand from her cheek.

“You’re already mine, is there a need for you to be given?”

Hearing this, Fu Qiyuan couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile.

“True, what do you want then?”

“Whatever I want, you’ll give it to me?”

Fu Qiyuan raised an eyebrow, “Let’s hear it.”

Su Ran thought hard and then sadly realized she didn’t really want anything, but the man had offered…

So, she threw the question back to him!

“The key point isn’t what I want, but what do you have?”

“Money.”

Su Ran lifted her gaze, “Hmm?”

Fu Qiyuan placed his spoon in the bowl, leaned back slightly in his chair, and said indifferently,
“Apart from money, I have nothing!”

Su Ran couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth, looking at him speechlessly.

“You do realize saying that out loud could get you beaten up, right?”

“Who dares?”

Su Ran: “…”

Indeed, probably no one dared to lay a hand on this gentleman sitting before her!

She blinked and inched closer to him again.

“So how much do you plan to give?”

Su Ran watched him and continued, “At times like this, the amount a man gives fully reflects the woman’s place in his heart, how much do you think I am worth to you?”

Fu Qiyuan was silent for a moment and after a while, he hesitantly said,
“One Hundred Yuan?”

A “thud” sounded as the ceramic bowl collided with the golden phoebe wood dining table, producing a crisp and loud noise.

One Hundred Yuan?

In his heart, is she only worth One Hundred Yuan?

Simply unbearable!

Su Ran abruptly stood up from her seat, glaring at the man.

“With your emotional intelligence, you can pretty much say goodbye to getting married in this lifetime!”

After speaking, she carried her bowl and chopsticks into the kitchen.

Fu Qiyuan watched his own dinnerware that he had been forced to leave behind, and the sounds coming from the kitchen that were louder than usual, his lips curved up indulgently.

Then, he too stood up from his seat, tidied up his own bowl and chopsticks, and was about to go to the kitchen when his phone suddenly started to vibrate.

The phone displayed a string of numbers with no contact name.

And at the sight of this number, the tenderness and doting on Fu Qiyuan’s face was instantly replaced by an overwhelming chill.

All the peace and tranquility at the bottom of his eyes were destroyed in an instant, leaving behind a dark and shadowy abyss.

Only when the call was about to disconnect did Fu Qiyuan take his phone to the other side of the balcony to answer.

He didn’t speak first, but the person on the other end of the line did.

“Eldest Young Master…”

The respectful and cautious voice only made Fu Qiyuan’s eyes grow deeper.

“Speak.”

“The chairman asks that you return to the old house as soon as possible.”

Fu Qiyuan’s gaze was as calm as could be, but deep within his eyes, there was a hint of darkness.

“Tell him, I will find time to go back.”

The person on the other end still maintained a neither servile nor overbearing tone, but in their voice, it wasn’t hard to detect fear and respect toward Fu Qiyuan.

“Eldest Young Master, the chairman’s exact words were… as soon as possible!”

Fu Qiyuan’s gaze suddenly became as explosive as a shattered silver jug, his entire aura coated with a frosty chill.

“Are you teaching me how to do my job?”

The frigid tone was bone-chillingly cold, making the person on the other end shiver uncontrollably, even through the phone!

“No… I wouldn’t dare!”

“Good, if you wouldn’t dare, then relay my exact words to the old man!”

Fu Qiyuan’s voice was as cold as millennia-old ice, and as soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

There was a faint noise from the dining area behind him, his gaze flickered, instantly regaining clarity.

All his emotions vanished like fog scattered by the wind, leaving no trace.

When Fu Qiyuan walked into the dining room, he saw Su Ran tidying up the bowl and chopsticks he had left on the table, and before going into the kitchen, she gave him a cold glance.

Watching her rare temper tantrum, he smiled helplessly, turned around, and followed her into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Su Ran was washing his bowl and chopsticks, her starry eyes downcast, exuding a gentle and quiet demeanor.

In an instant, the words “good wife and loving mother, peaceful years” came to Fu Qiyuan’s mind.

His heart stirred, and he stepped forward to wrap his arms around her from behind.

Feeling the warmth on her back, Su Ran was about to speak, but the man spoke first.

“Xiao Ran.”

There was a slight chill in Su Ran’s heart, Fu Qiyuan’s voice was still deep and magnetic, but more serious than usual.

All expression slowly retracted from her face, and turning around in his arms, when she faced him again, she was composed.

“What’s wrong?”

“I need to visit the Fu family.”

Fu Qiyuan had never thought of hiding it from her; he knew her character well and understood her nature.

Deliberate concealment and deceit would only push her further away.

After all, what was more important in a relationship than honesty and trust?

Su Ran knew that the Fu family mentioned by Fu Qiyuan was not referring to Grandma Fu’s home; her fingers tightened slightly, suppressing all speculations in her heart.

“When?”

Fu Qiyuan said, “The day after tomorrow.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for your return!”

Su Ran said nothing else and asked no further questions, showing him the utmost trust.

How could Fu Qiyuan not understand?

His lips curved slightly, “Be good and wait for me at home!”
