after xiao liuliu finished her meal, she went back to her room to pack her things and called fu qinyuan before she left for school.
the two of them had a good relationship, so he naturally had to be informed of his return as soon as possible.
âyour grandparents are coming back too?â
âdefinitely.â
fu qinyuan frowned. he did not know if the two of them were happy or sad about their return. he remembered that sheng aiyi was easy to get along with. she was gentle and elegant. jing xingyao grew up with her and naturally had more of her personality.
âwhen youâre back, iâll treat you to anything you want.â
âthank you, brother.â after all, xiao liuliu was still young. she was naturally happy when she had something to eat and play with.
at first, fu qin answered the video call in the living room. fu huan was opening the refrigerator to take out a yellow peach yogurt. she tilted her head and sized him up. he had a good relationship with xiao liuliu. she did not see him video-calling her when she was out.
sigh, a sister raised by her own family is worse than an outsider.

soon, huaisheng and yan chi returned one after another. fu chen went to the company to pick up song fengwan. when he returned home, it was almost midnight. he had a little drink, so his throat was dry and his body was hot.
âduan linbai, that bastard, said that the wine was good and had a light taste, but he didnât say that it had a strong aftereffect.â
âdad,â he said. fu qinyuan came down from upstairs. â did you drink? â
fu chen put some ice into the glass and poured some cool water into it, not even looking at him.
âthe smell of alcohol is very strong. how much did you drink?â
how much do i drink? for who?
wasnât it to help you stabilize your future father-in-law?
âdad, i have something to ask you.â
âspeak,â he said.
âwhat kind of person is grandpa jing?â fu qinyuan and the jing familyâs bosses were close to each other. in addition, their family had been abroad for many years, and the two were two generations apart, so they did not communicate much.
fu chen was drinking water when he suddenly remembered. â theyâre going back to china, right? â
âyes.â
âyou want to start from him?â fu chen narrowed his eyes and glanced at him.
fu qinyuan thought to himself that he would pay a formal visit to the jing family during the mid-autumn festival. she was interested in him, and he had kissed and hugged her, so he had to take responsibility.
âare you going to visit your parents?â fu chen saw through his thoughts at a glance.
âi have this idea.â
âwhat time?â
âbefore mid-autumn.â
fu chen narrowed his eyes. â then iâm afraid we canât have a family reunion this year and have a good holiday. â
fu qinyuanâs mouth twitched. what did his father mean by this?
âyouâre preparing to please the jing family and make a good impression, right?â after fu chen finished speaking, he nodded. â itâs not impossible for you to go to grandpa jing first. only you can coax him, and your sixth uncle will be successful. â
after all, a certain big shotâs words still held enormous weight in the jing family at this time!
âthen how? is there any way?â
fu qinyuanâs heart had just lit up with a glimmer of hope when fu chen poured a basin of cold water on him. â thereâs no other way. itâs fine as long as youâre tight-lipped. â
â......â
âgo back to your room and wash up. go to bed early. stop dreaming.â

on the other hand, duan linbai had been provoked by fu chen today. he said that he did not know his daughter as well as fu sinian did, so he was prepared to have a late-night father-daughter talk with duan yinuo.
when he knocked on duan yinuoâs door, she was playing a mobile game.
duan linbai frowned. playing games was to relax or to feel refreshed. youâre just a bronze chicken, and youâll only be killed when you enter the game. what are you looking for?
âdad, whatâs the matter?â
âletâs talk.â
âalright.â duan yinuo was always a straightforward person.
duan linbai even cleared his throat and put on airs. â what have you been busy with recently? â
âiâm going after my idol.â she laughed a little heartlessly, and her words were also half-true and half-false.
â you better be honest and stop smiling. what have you been doing recently? youâre about to graduate. what are your plans for the future? â
â well ... â she bit her lip. â dad, thereâs still more than half a year before graduation. thereâs no rush. i think itâs more important to settle my marriage first. as the saying goes, start a family and career. i havenât even started a family yet, so how can i start a career? â
âdad, do you know how popular good-looking, handsome, and high-quality young men are now?â
âif i donât work hard now, i wonât have a chance in the future.â
â itâs said that there are more men than women in our country. in the future, there will be a lot of leftover men for me to choose from, but there are not many of good quality. â
......
âdonât interrupt me. iâm talking about work. donât talk nonsense with me.â she had threatened to get married in the fourth grade of elementary school, so some of her words were not credible at all, so duan linbai naturally did not take it to heart.
âlook at your brother, heâs so hardworking.â
âyou should learn more from him!â
âyou adults are really strange. you didnât say this when we were young. you said that he was old-fashioned and boring, and told me not to learn from him.â
duan linbaiâs throat was filled with anger.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
the heart-to-heart journey between the two was officially broken.
duan yinuo ran back to her room and continued to play her game happily. duan linbai was furious, and xu jiamu didnât say anything. he just went downstairs to pour him a glass of water.
âmint leaves, itâs to reduce the heat!â
duan linbai finally couldnât hold back and complained to her.
âdo you know how she spoke to me just now? you still dare to talk back? aiyo, iâm so angry.â
â youâre always talking to me about going after little brother. youâre a girl, canât you be more reserved? â
âand youâre still explaining to me about starting a family and starting a career? should this word be used here? heâs really not as worry-free as his brother.â
......
xu jiamu tilted his head and glanced at him. â now you know how hard it was for our parents to raise you. â
before duan linbai could catch his breath, he was so angry that his face turned ashen. he pulled the quilt over his head and went to sleep.
â youâre anxious now. if you sleep with your head covered, the air wonât circulate. itâs easy to cause a lack of oxygen in the brain and dizziness. â
......
what could he do about the wife he married and the daughter he raised himself?
