beijing courtyard
when huai sheng and fu yu arrived at the old house, the autumn sun was hanging in the sky, warm and bright.
after entering the house, they rarely saw the usual warm greetings. in the past, huaisheng was studying abroad and only came a few times a year. fu shinan and his wife were always extra enthusiastic when they saw him, but today, their eyes revealed a bit of sizing up, as if they did not know him.
fu qinyuan was sitting on the side, texting jing xingyao with his head lowered. he looked up at the people in the living room, unwilling to get involved.
his arms were still sore from shooting arrows at the club today.
fu sinian could not really beat them up, so he could only torture them from other ways.
âdonât just stand there, take a seat.â fu shinanâs tone was formal and polite. â have you settled everything? â
âyes.â
â this incident must have had a bad influence on the school ... â everything had happened too suddenly last night, and they hadnât had a good chat. they would definitely not let him off today.
this side ...
fu yu had already taken off her windbreaker and entered the kitchen. â mom, let me help you. â
yu manxi responded.
she was just helping out with the dishes and was considered idle. however, she clearly felt that her mother was not quite right today. she did not look too good. â mom, are you alright? â
âiâm fine.â yu manxi pursed her lips. â help me get a bigger plate. â
âbut ... did you put salt in this dish?â fu yu watched this dish go into the pot. she didnât add any seasoning and was ready to take it out? â and itâs only been in the pot for a while. the meat inside is probably not cooked yet? â
âis that so?â yu manxi tasted the soup and confirmed that there was no salt.
âmom, are you really alright? youâre so absent-minded. have you been too tired from the birthday banquet and didnât have a good rest today? take me to the physical examination early in the morning. let me do it. â fu yu took over the work from her.
yu manxi stood at the side and stared at her with a complicated expression.
there were some things that she really didnât know how to say.
âby the way, what are the results of todayâs physical examination? there shouldnât be any problems, right?â
yu manxi smiled and shook her head. â nothing. â
â thatâs good. i didnât expect huaisheng to go to school today. i was actually quite surprised. i felt that some things were not suitable for him to do, and i wanted to settle it by himself. i didnât expect him to have the same thoughts as me ... â
people who were in the honeymoon period of their relationship naturally treated each other very well. when fu yu mentioned huaisheng, there was a kind of shyness unique to a little woman.
â xiaoyu ... â yu manxi asked in a low voice, â how much do you like him? are you sure you want to be with him forever?â
âof course, who doesnât aim for a lifetime when theyâre in love?â
fu yu felt that her mother was acting weird today, but yu manxi just said that she was too tired.

when eating around the table, it was inevitable to drink some wine. fu shinan was already retiring and had taken half a day off. he specially took out his precious maotai, obviously intending to make huaisheng drink.
fu qinyuan sat on the side, not intending to get involved at all. â i have to go to school this afternoon to look for the teacher to read my thesis. i donât smell good from drinking. â
he wasnât going to school at all today, and planned to pick jing xingyao up from li garden later for a date.
âthen donât drink anymore. huaisheng, drink more.â
huaisheng wanted to decline. if they were outside, he would definitely use the excuse that he believed in buddha and did not drink. this trick worked every time, but in the fu family, he would most likely be thrown out by fu sinian!
who didnât know who was who? acting in front of him? he would probably be beaten up.
huai sheng nodded in response and saw fu shinan take out a wine glass the size of half a palm from the cabinet at the side and hand it to him, while he used a wine glass the size of a thumb.
â i wanted to have a drink with you last night, but there were too many guests and i couldnât take care of you. letâs get drunk today. iâm old, so itâs just a token of appreciation. you have to drink to your heartâs content. â
fu shinanâs words almost blocked his way out, so he could only take the glass and thank him.
huaishengâs alcohol tolerance was average, and he could not stand fu shinan and fu sinian taking turns to drink. as a junior, it was also his first time coming to the fu family as fu yuâs boyfriend, so naturally, he finished his glass and soon became a little drunk.
in fact, the father and son wanted to get him drunk so that he would tell him the truth.
â in fact, iâm really surprised that you two can be together. xiaoyu is so old. donât look at how she does things quickly and decisively. in fact, she is a blank piece of paper in love. â fu shinan laughed.
âso, which one of you took the initiative?â fu sinian asked bluntly.
huaisheng looked at fu yu, who was sitting opposite him, and pursed his lips into a smile. he remembered how excited she was when she leaned over on the train last time for the western research. â i guess i was the one who fell in love first ... â
