Chapter 363: Punishment

Chu Sihan lowered his eyes to size himself up before looking at Fu Sisi.

He was travel-stained and wanted to return to the Chu Mansion to wash up before visiting the girl.

But Fu Sisi was going to the Lu family’s restaurant?

Since they came back together, the first person he wanted the girl to see was himself and not anyone else.

Not even if Fu Sisi was his cousin.

“Chu Yun, send the items back to the Chu Mansion first. I’ll go to the Lu family’s restaurant with Sisi.”

“Yes!”

After Chu Yun received his orders, he rode the carriage away.

Fu Sisi raised her eyebrows and looked over. “Cousin, aren’t you returning to the Chu Mansion first?”

“I suddenly feel a little hungry. Since you’re going, let’s go together.”

He spoke as if he was really hungry.

However, she remembered that they had eaten at an inn more than two hours ago.

How could he be hungry so quickly after eating?

He probably had an ulterior motive.

Fu Sisi pursed her lips and smiled.

She looked at Constable Wang and said, “Constable Wang, right? Get someone to move my things in. I’ll go to the restaurant with my cousin.”

Constable Wang nodded. “Do you need me to prepare another carriage for you?”

“O...”

Before Fu Sisi could finish her sentence, Chu Sihan said coldly, “No need. It’s not far.”

“Yes!”

After Constable Wang bowed, he hurriedly ordered someone to bring Fu Sisi’s items back.

Chu Sihan led Fu Sisi out onto the streets.

This was Fu Sisi’s first time back in Huang Yang Town, so she could not help but feel curious.

Along the way, she looked at this and then at that. Chu Sihan’s frown became tighter.

“If you want to shop, I can bring you out later.”

He was in a hurry to see the girl.

Fu Sisi pouted.

How could she not know what Chu Sihan was thinking?

Fifteen minutes later.

“We’re here!”

Fu Sisi’s eyes lit up when she saw the words ‘Lu family’s restaurant’ on the plaque.

Seeing that she was about to enter, Chu Sihan hurriedly strode in before her.

Fu Sisi was speechless.

Those who did not know might even think that she was her cousin’s love rival.

“Welcome!”

Lu Sheng was settling the bill for a guest when she saw someone enter from the corner of her eye. She shouted without lifting her head.

“Ahem!”

Chu Sihan stood at the side and covered his mouth as he coughed lightly.

Upon hearing a familiar voice, Lu Sheng turned her head and met his smiling gaze.

She was slightly stunned before smiling. “Lord! You came back in time?”

Chu Sihan frowned slightly. “It’s Sihan.”

He did not like the girl speaking to him politely.

Lu Sheng chuckled and took two steps forward. She was about to say something when Fu Sisi walked in with narrowed eyes.

“Miss Fu is here too?”

Lu Sheng looked behind her and was a bit puzzled. “Why don’t I see Young Master Shi and Young Master Yun?”

Fu Sisi smiled and said, “They’ve gone to the inn. They’ll probably come over later.”

“Oh!”

Lu Sheng pointed in Fu Xianyun’s direction and said, “Lord Fu and Young Madam Fu are there.”

Fu Sisi looked in the direction she was pointing at and saw her brother feeding her nephew while her sister-in-law was busy eating. Neither of them noticed her.

“Miss Lu, I’ll go to my brother first. You and Cousin have a chat first.”

Lu Sheng nodded slightly. She only retracted her gaze after she turned around.

“Lord Chu is back!”

When He Lai saw Chu Sihan, he hurried over with a smile.

Chu Sihan nodded at him and said lightly, “I’ll trouble Uncle to man the counter first. I have something to tell Sheng Sheng.”

“Uncle?!”

He Lai exclaimed in shock.

Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked He Lai in all seriousness, “Sheng Sheng is my future wife. You’re Sheng Sheng’s uncle. Is there anything wrong with me calling you uncle?”

Lu Sheng was speechless.

In terms of shamelessness, no one could compare to Chu Sihan.

“Hehe—”

He Lai suppressed his fluttering heart and nodded with a silly smile. “Whatever Lord Chu says.”

The youngest scholar and the youngest magistrate in Xuan Yue Country actually called him ‘Uncle.’

If these words were told to the people in their academy, they would definitely not believe him.

“Lord, feel free to say whatever you want. It’s alright if you don’t return. I’ll watch over here. Everything will be fine.”

He smiled and waved his hand, hinting for Chu Sihan to bring Lu Sheng away as soon as possible.

Uncle, can you be more promising?

Lu Sheng held her forehead.

He was bought over just by calling him ‘Uncle.’ He really had no self-control.

“Thank you, Uncle!”

He Lai hurriedly waved his hand. “It’s alright, go ahead.”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly. He gestured at Fu Xianyun, who was walking over, and held Lu Sheng’s hand before leaving.

“Huh?”

Fu Xianyun frowned. “Why did he leave as soon as he arrived?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Cousin hasn’t seen Miss Lu for so long. Naturally, he has a lot to say to her.”

Fu Sisi picked up her chopsticks and stared at the food in front of her. She found it very interesting.

“Aunt, eat this chicken claw. It’s delicious.”

Fu Shuo pushed his mother’s favorite chicken claw to Fu Sisi.

Fu Sisi’s face scrunched up and she said in disdain, “Can this be eaten?”

“It’s full of color, the skin is crisp, and the meat is tender. It’s definitely delicious!”

Yu Linglong picked up a piece and took a bite. She ate it with relish.

Fu Sisi reached over to the plate with her chopsticks. After hesitating for a long time, she picked up a piece.

Seeing that Yu Linglong had finished one in less than two bites, she swallowed her saliva and tried to take a small bite.

This was the first time she had eaten chicken claws in fifteen years. They tasted quite good.

Hence, the two of them started fighting over the chicken claws.

—————

Lu Sheng was pulled away from the Lu family’s restaurant by Chu Sihan. They walked aimlessly on the streets.

“Lord, where are we going?”

Was Chu Sihan trying to pull her to go shopping?

Chu Sihan did not speak and brought her into an alley.

Before Lu Sheng could regain her senses, she was already pressed against the wall.

She looked up at him in shock and confusion. “Lor... Mm—”

Before she could finish speaking, her red lips were sealed tightly.

His kisses were sometimes domineering and sometimes gentle. He only pushed her away slightly when she collapsed into his arms like a puddle of water.

Their hurried breaths intertwined and it was no longer possible to tell whose breath it was.

“This is your punishment. Remember to call out my name in the future.”

He caressed her red lips with his thumb and spoke hoarsely.

Lu Sheng’s eyes were misty. She was looking at him in confusion, looking innocent and pitiful.

Chu Sihan turned his longing into a deep kiss and finished speaking. He tried his best to suppress the urge to bully her again. He pressed his nose lightly against her forehead and asked hoarsely, “Did you hear that?”

Lu Sheng blinked and retracted her arms from his neck. Her cheeks were pink.

She suppressed her racing heart and nodded.

Chu Sihan chuckled softly and was in a good mood.
