Chapter 1291 The Aunt Who Suddenly Appeared
Du Yunxi stared at Fu Yanchen in a daze. He was holding his little furry cat gently, with a rare tenderness in his eyes.
To her, this scene was as incredible as a dream.
Fu Yanchen, the man who was known for his ruthlessness and decisiveness in the business world, and who used to be ruthless when dealing with them, actually developed a liking for these soft and cute little animals?
Her heart couldn't help but ripple, as if she saw a hidden tenderness beneath his cold exterior.
The sunlight filtered through the window and shone onto his angular face, adding a touch of softness to it.
Fu Yanchen's fingers gently scratched the cat's chin. The cat squinted comfortably and purred with satisfaction.
This scene was harmonious and warm, causing Du Yunxi to feel an inexplicable warmth in her heart.
Just as these people were enjoying this rare peaceful and tranquil atmosphere and were about to step into the house to continue chatting happily, suddenly, a hurried sound of footsteps came from afar, instantly breaking the original silence.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the butler walking towards them quickly with a slightly panicked look on his face.
His hurried pace and slightly furrowed brows showed that the matter seemed somewhat urgent.
When he got closer, the housekeeper took a deep breath and calmed down a little before he said, "Madam, there is someone outside who said he must see you."
Although the butler's tone was obviously a little hurried, it was still difficult to conceal the respect in his words.
Hearing this, Du Yunxi was slightly startled, but soon returned to normal.
Because she was in a particularly good mood today, there was always a faint smile on her face.
When she heard someone wanted to see her, she raised her eyebrows with interest and asked softly, "Oh? Who is it?"
As she spoke, her beautiful eyes sparkled with curiosity and anticipation, and it was obvious that she was very interested in the upcoming visitor.
In response to his wife's question, the butler paused for a moment, as if he was carefully considering his words.
After a moment, he slowly answered: "That person...she said...she is the young lady's aunt."
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a blockbuster bomb dropped into a calm lake, instantly causing a thousand waves.
Everyone in the room was stunned with shock. For a moment, the air seemed to freeze and one could hear a pin drop.
Nan Weiwei's originally lively eyes were now wide open. She pointed at herself in disbelief and spoke haltingly:
"I... when did I have an aunt? An aunt just fell from the sky?"
The voice was trembling with surprise, mixed with a bit of fear and confusion.
Her pretty face was now filled with deep doubt and confusion, as if it was shrouded in a thick, impenetrable fog.
It was obvious that she was completely confused and puzzled by this "aunt" who appeared out of nowhere.
Nan Yifeng on the side also had a look of astonishment on his face, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed like two deep black lines.
He desperately searched for information about family members in his mind, and dug out every face deep in his memory and identified them carefully, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he could not remember the existence of such an aunt.
Du Yunxi also looked at a loss, her beautiful eyes moving constantly between the housekeeper and Nan Weiwei, eager to catch even the slightest useful clue from the changes in their expressions.
However, faced with the puzzling situation before her, all she saw was endless mystery.
As for Fu Yanchen, his expression was much more complicated than that of the others.
A hint of surprise flashed across his deep eyes before he quickly regained his composure. However, his tightly pursed lips and slightly furrowed brows still revealed some of his inner fluctuations.
What kind of impact will this sudden appearance of the aunt have on this family? Everything is still unknown...
He and Nan Weiwei's father have known each other for a long time. Although there is a big age gap between them, they have become good friends who can talk about anything because of their similar interests. Therefore, he knows a lot about the various affairs of the Nan family.
However, in his long memory, he had never heard the prince mention the existence of a younger sister.
This unexpected discovery was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly breaking the peace in his heart.
At this moment, countless questions flooded into his mind like a tide, making him alert.
A sharp and imperceptible light like a blade suddenly flashed in his originally peaceful eyes.
"This...what is going on?"
Nan Yifeng couldn't suppress his inner confusion and anxiety, so he spoke first.
His voice trembled slightly, as if it contained thousands of words waiting to be answered.
At the same time, Du Yunxi gently patted Nan Weiwei's shoulder, trying to give her some comfort.
But in fact, Du Yunxi's heart was also in turmoil, and she secretly wondered about the origin of this "aunt" who suddenly appeared in front of her.
The butler stood quietly by the side, with a questioning look in his eyes.
His voice was slightly hesitant, and he asked slowly: "Madam...should we let her in?"
Apparently, even the butler was keenly aware of the unusually tense atmosphere created by this uninvited guest.
Du Yunxi frowned slightly and thought in silence for a long time.
Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she nodded slightly and said with a firm look in her eyes, "Then let her in. I want to see what she is up to!"
At this moment, Du Yunxi's heart seemed to be shrouded in a fog, full of doubts and vigilance.
However, amidst all these doubts, there is also a hint of irrepressible curiosity.
She really wanted to find out what this belated "relative" was here for.
Du Yunxi couldn't help but ponder in her heart: when Weiwei and Xiaoxiao were just born, this so-called "aunt" not only did not come to visit or acknowledge them as relatives, she didn't even give them the slightest bit of care.
Now that things have changed, she suddenly shows up without any warning. There must be something fishy going on here!
Seeing that Du Yunxi had made the decision, the butler standing by nodded respectfully, then turned around, walked out of the room slowly with steady steps, and went to greet the mysterious visitor.
At this time, Fu Yanchen spoke, his voice was steady and firm: "Aunt, don't tell Xiaoxiao about this for the time being."
He knew Xiaoxiao's character very well and was afraid that she would be troubled and her mood would be affected after learning about this. His eyes revealed his deep concern and desire to protect Xiaoxiao.
Du Yunxi nodded after hearing this, her eyes full of understanding for Fu Yanchen.
She knew that Fu Yanchen had always treated Xiaoxiao like his own precious baby, and his worries and concerns were all genuine.
The room fell silent again, and everyone was wondering what the "aunt" was up to.
Du Yunxi was both nervous and expectant. She knew that an unknown storm was coming and she had to be fully prepared to meet this challenge.
