What Is This?

The surrounding neighbors were shocked. Did they break off the engagement?

What's going on here?

Why did he suddenly break off the engagement?

They grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. The two of them had always been very close. The Mu family's kid ran to the Jiang family every time he returned home. Wasn't he still happy when he was here yesterday?

They said they were about to get married yesterday, but they broke off the engagement today!

What happened?

The neighbors were puzzled, but Eleven didn't say anything else and left with his parents expressionlessly.

-

Grand General Xie's residence.

Jiang Fu sat in the small kitchen. The fiery red light from the stove reflected on the young girl's fair and soft face, making her cheeks turn red. A dim layer of light covered her long eyelashes.

Her fair hand grabbed the firewood to light the fire.

Ah Chu and Xie Min sat at the side and shared a plate of peanuts.

The smell of the fish soup in the pot became stronger and stronger. Xie Min and Ah Chu, who were eating peanuts, suddenly stopped. The two of them swallowed their saliva and looked at the pot. The soup was fragrant. They instantly felt that the peanuts in their hands were no longer as fragrant.

Xie Min pursed her lips and stuffed a peanut into her mouth. She stared straight at the pot and asked, "Ah Fu, is the fish ready?"

Ah Chu didn't say anything, but her eyes fixed on the pot.

Jiang Fu sat there looking at the fire and shook her head. "Not yet."

Xie Min bit on the peanuts and felt that the peanuts in her mouth were tasteless. She stared at the pot and said, "Is the soup done? It smells very fragrant!"

"I think it has finished cooking already!"

Jiang Fu looked up with her clear and dark eyes. She smiled and said, "It'll taste better if you cook it more."

Xie Min held the plate. The peanuts on the plate were spinning. She bit her lip. She knew that if Jiang Fu felt that she did not cook the soup well, Jiang Fu would not allow her to eat. She could only hug the plate and sigh before continuing to wait.

Ah Chu also pursed her lips and did not say anything.

Jiang Fu's eyes curved as she turned to look outside. The rain had stopped.

The ground was still wet, and there were shallow puddles.

It was a little cold, perfect for drinking some hot fish soup.

She went to catch these fish with Gu Yunfu before Xie Cheng returned. They had been keeping them in the water tank and had planned to cook them for him when Xie Cheng returned.

However, looking at the current situation, he probably wouldn't want her to make anything.

Jiang Fu sat there with her hands supporting her face. The sides of her cheeks were slightly puffed up, and there was a hint of red in her fair skin.

How should he put it? Let that Liu Niang leave the General's residence.

"Ah Fu, are you done? I'm hungry!" Xie Min moved beside the pot and was about to lose her grip on the plate in her hand.

Xie Min's shout jolted Jiang Fu back into reality. She looked up, squinted her eyes, and smiled. "Let's wait a little longer."

Xie Min put down the plate of peanuts in her hand and stared at the pot lid, on the brink of tears.

How could this be? This fish was still cooking in the pot. Why was it so fragrant already? Couldn't it wait until it finished cooking?

Xie Min pursed her lips and pretended to look outside, trying to use other things to divert her attention. She looked outside and suddenly remembered the agreement.

"By the way, Ah Fu!" Xie Min suddenly took out a folded piece of paper and presented it to Jiang Fu as if she was presenting a treasure. "This is for you!"

Jiang Fu looked at the thin piece of paper in her hand and asked curiously, "What is this?"
