Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Sun Ya

"You better leave it alone! This really isn’t something you should say." Lin Xue crossed her arms, rubbing the goosebumps on her skin. "You’re just fit for that kind of..."

Lu Feng was teased by the crowd, seeing Fu Xiaoxiao laughing happily, he didn’t bother arguing with them.

"Regardless of who this fake Lu Feng is, this matter must be investigated thoroughly, otherwise Lu Feng would truly become a scumbag." Fu Xiaoxiao said as she looked at Lu Feng with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, let’s catch the person later." Lin Qiu also thought that such an incident wouldn’t be good for Lu Feng.

"Let’s watch the show first!" Wang Lu checked the time and smiled at Fu Xiaoxiao and the others.

When Fu Xiaoxiao and the others turned around, they saw neat rows coming toward them, with orders echoing throughout the venue.

"Quick march!"

"Halt!"

"Sit down!"

The soldiers followed the commands to reach their positions, and sat directly on the ground.

Before long, the entire playground was filled with people.

Fu Xiaoxiao and the others were arranged behind the leaders’ seats, while Liu Hongjun also brought his family and sat directly in front of the stage.

This was also the first time Fu Xiaoxiao saw Liu Hongjun’s wife, who entered with a gentle smile following behind Liu Hongjun.

Her figure was slightly plump but not bloated, her rounded face shone with a gloss, and though her skin bore fine lines from the years, it was well-maintained, exuding a warm charm.

Her hair was neatly combed, forming a tight bun at the nape, her eyebrows trimmed neatly and thinly, with slightly uplifted ends, her eyes were small but spirited, with crow’s feet visible in her carefully restrained expression.

When walking, her spine was straight; she folded her hands in front of her, each step steady. While conversing, she would nod slightly, her lips holding the semblance of a smile, her gaze persistently carrying an inspecting quality.

Her outfit matched the current fashion trends, with the material and cut subtly showcasing the family’s sophistication; intentional restraint and unintentional elegance intertwined into a contradictory noble aura.

Fu Xiaoxiao felt the people around her tense suddenly upon seeing her, turning to look at Lu Feng, only to find him expressionless but his tense body hadn’t relaxed.

Instead, he grew more rigid as she approached.

"You’ve arrived? I was just thinking of sending someone to call you!" Liu Hongjun saw Lu Feng’s family, noticing Fu Cheng beside them, greeted them with a smile. "By the way, Xiao Xiao, this is your first time seeing my wife, right? Let me introduce you."

"This is my wife, Sun Ya." Liu Hongjun smiled at Fu Xiaoxiao.

"You’re the Xiao Xiao that Old Liu mentioned, nice to meet you, I’m Sun Ya. If you don’t mind, you can call me Aunt Sun." Sun Ya extended her hand to Fu Xiaoxiao with friendliness.

"Hello." Fu Xiaoxiao nodded at Sun Ya, without appearing overly familiar. "Just call me Xiao Xiao."

"You seem like a clean-loving child, your braids are so neatly done, the red ribbon tied playfully, making you even more charming. Xiao Feng, you’re really lucky." Sun Ya complimented Fu Xiaoxiao.

Initially, Fu Xiaoxiao didn’t think much of it, but then she heard Sun Ya’s next sentence.

"No wonder you don’t fancy my niece, with such a beauty beside you, you two are truly a perfect match."

Fu Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly, the smile in her eyes disappeared instantly.

"Auntie, you’re too flattering! When us young folks date, we pay a lot of attention to appearances, which is normal. After all, we’ll be looking at each other every day for the rest of our lives, right? But Liu Jing is petite; if she alters her pampering nature, she’ll definitely find a better match in the future, so Auntie, no need to worry." Fu Xiaoxiao flashed a graceful smile at Sun Ya.

Sun Ya’s face stiffened, and Liu Hongjun immediately nodded. "Yes, I always say Liu Jing is too pampered; if she changes her temperament, surely some young man would want to marry her."

Hearing Liu Hongjun agreeing with Fu Xiaoxiao’s words, Sun Ya’s expression turned, but she couldn’t show it, maintaining an awkward smile while feeling discomfort internally.

"Old Liu, we should sit down." Sun Ya took a deep breath, reminding him. "Xiao Xiao, do visit with Xiao Feng to our house for a meal when you have time! We’ll head over now."

"Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, take care. If possible, we’ll definitely bring Xiao Lin and Xiao Chen to visit you! Looking forward to tasting your cuisine!" Fu Xiaoxiao smiled ’happily’.

"We’ll head over now." Liu Hongjun smiled at Fu Xiaoxiao, glanced at the silent Lu Feng alongside them, then took Sun Ya back to their seats.

Once Sun Ya left, Fu Xiaoxiao’s smile faded.

"Has she often been passive-aggressive with you before?" Fu Xiaoxiao asserted.

Just in that brief exchange, Fu Xiaoxiao gathered quite a bit of information.

Lu Feng ruffled Fu Xiaoxiao’s hair, a hint of delight flooding his eyes.

"Is it my imagination, or does her smile seem... fake?" Lin Xue blinked in confusion, perceiving an unusually harmonious person yet finding her smile contradictory.

"It’s not your imagination." Fu Xiaoxiao shook her head, she indeed sensed a hint of malice.

Especially when she seemed to ignore ’Lu Feng’ while subtly targeting ’Lu Feng’ in her speech.

Liu Hongjun hadn’t detected the underlying currents between them, believing they were getting along well.

"See! Xiao Xiao is really good, isn’t she? Now you’ve seen, I wasn’t wrong, right?" Liu Hongjun couldn’t help asking Sun Ya upon sitting down.

Sun Ya internally rolled her eyes, but outwardly maintained a joyful smile, "She is indeed a nice child, how did Lu Feng come to know her?"

"It’s a matter of fate, really, Xiao Feng is quite fortunate." Liu Hongjun glanced at Sun Ya, aware she wouldn’t like hearing how Lu Feng met Fu Xiaoxiao.

Lu Feng was avoiding Liu Jing, intentionally returning for matchmaking, marrying offhandedly just to escape Liu Jing.

"I see, well, he is quite fortunate indeed." Sun Ya’s smile turned faint, paying no further mind to Liu Hongjun.

Holding anger with nowhere to vent.

"Why don’t we invite their family over to sit? You can make a few dishes to entertain them?" Liu Hongjun eagerly looked at Sun Ya, trusting his wife wouldn’t refuse.

"Of course we can do that! Just unsure if Xiao Xiao can like my cooking, if she doesn’t enjoy, that would be poor hospitality?" Sun Ya smiled.

"True, Xiao Xiao is quite skilled herself, wouldn’t be good having her cook as a guest, sigh..." Liu Hongjun sighed, having tasted Fu Xiaoxiao’s cooking, truly believing Fu Xiaoxiao might not fancy Sun Ya’s cuisine.

Though Sun Ya was diligent, cooking daily for him, her food’s flavor was hard to describe.

As Liu Hongjun unexpectedly sided with an outsider, demeaning her culinary skills, Sun Ya’s smile vanished completely, almost bursting with anger.

Yet when Liu Hongjun looked over, her face regained a gentle smile.

Fu Xiaoxiao sat not far behind them, observing Sun Ya’s subtle expressions, a smile curved on her lips.
