Chapter 9 Call Him Husband

She had intended to expose Fu Chenlie, but when she opened her mouth, she ended up saying, "Yes, Grandma, I did say that I think Mr. Fu and I are not very acquainted with each other, and that we should have some more private space to get to know each other."

Wen Ran felt she was such a coward.

Mrs. Fu chuckled upon hearing this, "Ranran makes a good point."

Then she turned to Fu Chenlie, "You see, Ranran is so sensible. You should cherish her."

The latter responded without changing his expression, "I know, Grandma, don't worry."

He did not forget to add some juice to her cup, "Replenish vitamin C, drink more of this."

Wen Ran looked at him with a sweet smile, "Thank you, husband."

"Husband," the word caused the man to imperceptibly raise an eyebrow.

Mrs. Fu didn't notice the change in his expression, she only saw a harmonious scene of a couple in sync and smiled contentedly.

Although Fu Tianxin had just criticized Fu Chenlie and Fu Jiayue, upon seeing this scene, she still whispered to her aunt Fu Junyu sitting beside her, "Men are indeed fickle."

Fu Junyu smiled with deep meaning, "Your brother is faithful enough. Don't just believe what you see."

Fu Tianxin snorted and continued eating.

As Mrs. Fu ate, something else came to mind, "Right, Ranran, you mentioned earlier that you and your friend are job hunting, does that mean you're currently unemployed?"

"Yes, Grandma."

"What did you major in?"

She truthfully answered, "International Economics and Trade."

Mrs. Fu hastened to say, "There are plenty of jobs at Fu Group suited to your major. How good it would be to arrange a job for you there, so you won't have to suffer outside."

Wen Ran was stunned.

This... probably wasn't such a good idea?

Setting aside that Fu Chenlie definitely would not agree, she didn't want to face an icy expression every day at work.

"There are currently no vacancies for positions related to her field," Fu Chenlie immediately rejected Mrs. Fu's suggestion.

Mrs. Fu was persistent, "Then which positions are available in the company right now?"

"There are no positions available."

"I don't care, you must arrange a job for Ranran at Fu Group. I don't believe that such a large company doesn't have a suitable position for her."

Fu Chenlie remained silent.

Mrs. Fu pressed on, "Did you hear me?"

"I heard you," the man responded unwillingly, then after that, he turned to Wen Ran, "Do you have a driver's license?"

"I do, but..."

She had never driven a car since getting her license.

However—

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Fu Chenlie.

He ordered in a commanding tone, "It just so happens that I'm in need of a driver. You'll take the job."

Upon hearing that Fu Chenlie wanted Wen Ran to be the driver, Mrs. Fu's expression changed, "You little rascal, are you trying to kill me with annoyance? With all the positions available, you have Ranran be a driver? What are you thinking?"

"Every profession deserves respect."

After spouting such nonsense with a straight face, he turned his head towards Wen Ran, "I believe Ranran, being such a good girl, certainly has proper values and so wouldn't find the driver's position shameful, right?"

Wen Ran's mouth twitched, "Right."

After all, she had never driven.

As long as Fu Chenlie wasn't afraid of dying and dared to sit in the car, she dared to drive. Who's afraid of whom?!

Fu Jiayue chuckled and turned to Mrs. Fu, "Grandma, don't overthink it. Since sister-in-law is willing, then let her be a driver. That way, brother and sister-in-law can be together during their commute, which is also conducive to bonding."

Perhaps it was the point about "fostering a relationship" that resonated with Mrs. Fu, as she huffed coldly and stopped fixating on the issue.

After lunch, everyone sat in the living room for a chat.

After a while, Mrs. Fu suddenly stood up and looked at Fu Chenlie, "Ah Lie, come with me to the garden. I have something to tell you."

"Alright," he responded and rose to his feet.
