âi didnât let you touch it last time because i was afraid that you would break the glue.â
â later, i found out that it was fu huanâs. i was free today, so i returned the rabbit to her. we even met this morning. i wanted to ask you to come along, but it was just a small thing. it was only a few minutes away, so i didnât tell you. â
âwhatâs wrong? is there a problem?â
âyou said youâre poaching? what did that mean? you mean ...â
âi want to court your cousin?â
chen wangâs expression was too gentlemanly. qiao zhichu frowned. their positions had been reversed, and he had instantly become the subject of questioning.
âsheâs still in school. what can i do to her?â
â besides, i came to beijing for a competition. i spent all my time training. iâve been here for more than half a month and only been out for one or two days. even if i have the heart, do you think i have the time? â
â i know youâre worried about your sister, but ... â chen wang sneered.
âarenât you worrying too much? if you donât believe me, you can go back and ask her.â
chen wang only dared to say this because he was sure that qiao zhichu would not ask fu huan. if he could ask fu huan, he would not have come here.
qiao zhichu furrowed his brows. was he really thinking too much?
if he went back and asked fu huan, with her temper, she would definitely jump up and say that he was slandering her if there was really nothing wrong. she might even call qiao wangbei or qiao xiyan, and he would immediately go back to wusu.
âyou really wonât attack huanhuan?â qiao zhichu looked at him, as if he wanted a guarantee.
chen wang chuckled. â the competition is around the corner. do you think i have time? â
qiao zhichu raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows. he was very sure that something must have happened between fu yu and huaisheng, but both of them were hiding it. so, when he thought of chen wang and fu huan, he naturally grouped them together ...
what happened to fu yu and huaisheng had nothing to do with him, and he could not interfere.
moreover, he really couldnât tell others about this kind of thing. fu sinian and fu yuâs temper ...
it would not be good to offend anyone.
â have you been staying up late again recently? i see that you have quite serious dark circles under your eyes. people who lack sleep can easily overthink things. â
âyou came all the way here and even found an empty place just to say this?â
chen wang was very calm.
qiao zhichu rubbed his brow. â i was thinking that if you dare to admit it, iâll beat you up right here and now. â
although chen wang was a national go player and looked like a member of society, he was actually about the same age as fu huan. he had been admitted to capital universityâs special enrollment in the summer, but his admission had been postponed. the age difference between the two was less than three years.
chen wang chuckled, his eyes falling on his calloused hands. these few punches ...
iâm afraid i wonât even be able to participate in the competition.
âletâs go. iâll treat you to something, but i only have the cafeteria here. the food is pretty good.â chen wang said as he led him to the canteen. â youâre thinking so much just because of a rabbit? why donât you write a novel instead?â
qiao zhichu still felt that something was off.
however, there wasnât enough evidence at hand. if he came over like this, wouldnât he be beating the grass and alerting the snake?
......
â in the canteen-
no one dared to eat at the same table as chen wang. moreover, he had guests. when his teammates came over one after another, they just greeted him and sat down.
a certain someone was a little too open. qiao zhichu stared at him the whole time, but his expression didnât change at all. there was nothing unusual about it.
**
after sending qiao zhichu off, chen wang stroked his phone and called fu huan.
fu huan was doing physics papers. when she saw the caller id, she cleared her throat. â hello, yingluo. â
âmy clothes are with you.â
âokay, how do i give it to you?â fu huan looked at the loose uniform on the bed.
âcome and watch my match, just give it to me.â
fu huan had just checked his competition schedule. it was all during the national day holiday, so he answered in a muffled voice.
âcome over earlier, i need to wear that for the competition.â
âthe clothes for the competition?â in this competition, there were not only domestic players but also foreign players. they could be considered to be representing their country, so they naturally had to wear the team uniform.
this blocked fu huanâs escape route, and he had no choice but to go.
she knew that song fengwan would be there, but she could not find a reason to bring chen wangâs clothes over. why would she have chen wangâs clothes?
âyes.â chen wang lowered his voice a little. â iâll be preparing for the next match. i might not have time to teach you how to play chess. on the day of the match ... â
âiâll wait for you.â
fu huan didnât know why his simple words made her heart tremble. her fingers that were holding the pen were covered in a layer of sweat.
âyes.â she nodded. her body was a little hot, and her voice was a little hoarse.
â your cousin came to look for me just now. he seems to have misunderstood our relationship. as expected of a sculptor, heâs very observant. â
fu huan frowned. â cousin ... â
â itâs still that rabbit. iâve seen him at the base before. â
chen wang said casually and casually. after a few more words, he hung up the phone.
fu huanâs gaze fell on the rabbit, deep in thought.
speaking of which, her cousin had been in the capital for quite a long time. didnât he miss his uncle and aunt? it was time to go home.
the corners of her mouth suddenly curled up into a smile. she picked up the rabbit and gently pinched it twice. a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.
**
qiao zhichu was driving out of chuanbei at the moment. when he passed by the jing family, he even went in to greet them. he remembered that fu huan liked to eat crabs, so he specifically asked jing hanchuan for a few fat crabs.
before he reached yunjin city, his phone vibrated. he squinted his eyes.
note: [ irascible dictatorial double-standard man ]
his note for tang jingci was simple and crude: [ mother ].
â hello, dad, wanwan. â he put on his bluetooth headset and observed the traffic. there was a traffic jam.
âyouâve been out for a long time, right? youâve been staying at your auntâs house for so long, yet youâre still so embarrassed to trouble her?â
qiao zhichu furrowed his brows. he hadnât provoked him recently. why did he call him out of the blue and say that he was thick-skinned?
âdo you think i donât understand what youâre thinking? you find me annoying and donât want to come back?â
âdad, i didnât.â qiao zhichu laughed mockingly.
âpack your things and go back to wusu city tomorrow.â
âno, dad, i ...â
âbeep, beep, beep.â the other side was muted.
qiao zhichu gripped the steering wheel tightly. what was wrong with his father? why did he suddenly ask him to go back? it was ridiculous.
however, since qiao xiyan had already said so, qiao zhichu naturally had to listen. besides, he had indeed stayed in beijing for too long. he had originally planned to watch chen wangâs competition on national day before going home, but his plans could not keep up with the changes.
he gave chen wang a call.
âhello, chen wang.â
âyouâre home?â chen wang did not know that he had gone to the jing family. he estimated the time and thought that he had arrived at the capital of yunjin.
ânot yet. iâm going back to wusu tomorrow, so i probably wonât be able to watch your match. you can do your best.â
chen wang pursed his lips. â youâre not a special person. it doesnât matter to me whether you come or not. â
âwhy do you have such a foul mouth!â qiao zhichu scoffed.
it was normal for friends to tease and joke with each other, so qiao zhichu took it as a joke and didnât take it to heart.
he didnât know that some truths were said through jokes.
after hanging up the phone, chen wang lowered his head and studied the game of chess in front of him. his fingers were stroking a white chess piece. after a long while, he suddenly laughed out loud ...
he glanced at the corner of the table. the place where the rabbit had been placed was now empty. it felt a little strange that the rabbit had suddenly disappeared.
habit was really not a good thing!
he was starting to miss that rabbit.
