Chapter 2: Handling the House Staff
Aunt Wang was the Jiang family's nutritionist. She was a good person and knew her limits. The original host of the body had seen her secretly deliver food to Jiang Xinyuan. Because of this, Aunt Wang was fined by the original host. If not for Aunt Wang's good culinary skills and the chefs the original host had found being incomparable to her, Aunt Wang would have long been kicked out by the original host.
At the thought of this, Fu Xin couldn't wait any longer. She had always cared about her diet. At the thought of this, she couldn't wait to get rid of this troublesome butler and quickly go for a meal. If Aunt Wang was really like the original host's memory, she wanted to promote her to the housekeeper. Fu Xin would be at ease with Aunt Wang around.
At this moment, Butler Li was still struggling to accept the news.
Fu Xin didn't want to give him a chance to speak again. "If you want Jiang Yi to handle this matter, then continue to pester me."
"The sir doesn't even come back once a year. Madam, you're using this to threaten me? Do you find it interesting?" When the butler heard her mention Jiang Yi, he was no longer afraid.
"Yes." Fu Xin nodded. "Jiang Yi doesn't care about me, but what about Jiang Xinyuan?"
The butler's expression finally darkened. "I didn't see you treating Little Master any better in the past. Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Sir?"
"So what? I have Jiang Xinyuan. As long as I treat that child better, he'll love me the most. What do you think?" Fu Xin tilted her head and smiled at him. Without waiting for the butler's reaction, she walked toward Jiang Xinyuan's room. "By the way, I want to see the bank card before one o'clock. Otherwise, you can only choose to deal with the consequences yourself."
The butler was indignant. He slowly narrowed his eyes as a sinister thought surfaced in his mind. 'You shouldn't be kicking me away after using me. Madam, you're still too young.'
Fu Xin didn't see the change in the butler's expression. Even if she did, she wouldn't care because she didn't care what he would do. As for Jiang Yi, she actually didn't want to have anything to do with him. It was best if he never came back.
She managed to settle the butler's matter very smoothly. However, when she walked to Jiang Xinyuan's door, she was a little hesitant. This was her first time being a mother, and the original host of the body had just quarreled with him. To be honest, she had never heard a mother say to her son, "Why didn't you just die…"
She had no way of knowing where the original host's soul went, nor did she want to know. From the original book, she learned that because of the original host's increased mental abuse, Jiang Xinyuan's autism became more serious—so much so that he refused to communicate with anyone. The original host spent many years but failed to get Jiang Yi to return home. Moreover, because she abused her son, she eventually left the house with nothing and was killed by a car after going out. It was very dramatic… After Jiang Xinyuan learned that his mother had died, he committed suicide, as if he was using this method to repay his mother's kindness.
When receiving all the information in the original book, Fu Xin seemed to have heard a voice. The voice told her that she was here for Jiang Xinyuan. If she could make Jiang Xinyuan happy, she could get what she wanted the most.
Fu Xin remained suspicious of this because she didn't want anything. In her previous life, her family was average. Her mother had an affair, and her father was violent. She didn't care about those matters, though. She started living independently at an early age and was very satisfied with herself.
However, the strange thing was that the voice seemed to be hinting to her that she actually had something she really wanted…
Fu Xin couldn't understand, but no matter what, she decided to treat Jiang Xinyuan well. She liked that child very much. Most importantly, he wasn't a brat. He was obedient and smart.
Fu Xin took a deep breath and knocked on the door in front of her. "Jiang Xinyuan, come out for dinner."
Light footsteps soon sounded in the room.
She didn't know if it was because she was nervous or something, but when the footsteps approached, Fu Xin's heart seemed to be racing. She found it strange. Wasn't it just a child? Why was she nervous?
With a soft click, the door opened. A fair little boy appeared in Fu Xin's line of sight.
One adult and one child were sitting in the brightly lit dining room.
The adult ate like a tornado.
The younger one was elegant and noble.
However, to Fu Xin, nothing was more important than delicious food. If it weren't for the fact that there was someone with her, she really wanted to shout, "It's super delicious!"
She was poor in her previous life and had never eaten such delicious food. Although she was very focused on eating, she still realized that the little person beside her was always secretly peeping at her, thinking that he would not be discovered.
