1679 settle duan linbai first? falling in love with another person (2) _1
duan yinuo stayed at fu yuâs house for the night. huaisheng was translating the buddhist scriptures in the study, while she sat on the side and read the buddhist scriptures for a while. she borrowed a computer and changed her thesis all night.
the next morning, fu sinian came back from the studio at around five o âclock. he had recently taken on a job and had been busy all night. when he got home, he saw duan yinuo wandering around his living room like a ghost.
his hair was unkempt, his eyes were red, and he looked haggard.
âdad,â he said. fu yu woke up early.
âwhatâs going on?â fu sinian frowned. how did she become like this?
âiâm fine. i stayed up late last night to write my thesis.â there was no need for the younger generation to disclose their relationship to the elders, so fu yu did not intend to tell them.
âyouâre coming to our house to write a research paper?â did they not have a computer or electricity at home?
âshe wants me to help her type out her thesis.â fu yu smiled. there was always a reasonable excuse.
fu sinian knew that there were always some little secrets between young girls and did not ask further.
however, duan yinuo decided to stay in fu yuâs house. she liked fu yu and used to live there often, so duan linbai did not think much about it.

at the same time, in gu yuanâs apartment
a certain someone didnât know how to cook, so he got up early and went out to buy breakfast. the two brothers sat opposite each other, and the eldest of the gu family cleared his throat.âwaiter ...â
gu yuan lowered his head to eat and ignored him.
âyou canât blame me for this. since you like her and the little girl took the initiative to throw herself into your arms, you should have taken action. otherwise, i wouldnât have misunderstood.â
âiâm responsible, but i wonât be fully responsible.â
gu yuan only had two words to describe his behavior: shameless!
âsecond young master gu, do you think i can see my sister-in-law one last time before i leave?â
âwhat do you think?â gu yuan only gave him a cold look.
âwhy donât you give me her contact information? iâll explain it to her.â
âexplain?â gu yuan scoffed. â sheâs my woman. iâll handle it myself. â please stay away from her!â
the last few words were spoken with a strong warning tone.
âwhat can i do to her? i came all the way here to see you, and this is your attitude?â
â iâve seen it too, and so has she ... â gu yuan drank soy milk. â when are you leaving? â
the eldest son of the gu family was eating a soup dumpling and almost choked on it. â do you really want me to leave so badly? â
âi wasnât obvious enough?â
gu yuan was weird and difficult to deal with, and he really had the ability to anger people to death.
the eldest son of the gu family was obviously used to it. he snorted coldly and changed the topic. no wonder you didnât want to go home to mine for coal, thereâs a gold mine here.â
âit has nothing to do with her family,â
âdoes her family know about you and her?â
âhow should i face the duan family without establishing a relationship? do you want me to learn from you and settle my in-laws before i can even settle my sister-in-law?â
â let me tell you, this trick is very effective. parents are very important. you can settle her parents first. they can spread some rumors and it will be very effective. with the help of her in-laws, do you think you canât win her heart? â
gu yuan continued to drink the soy milk.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
his brother tried to woo his sister-in-law, but he didnât succeed. instead, he settled her family first. his in-laws treated him as close as their own son. later, when his sister-in-law came in, he was constantly worried that she would run away, so he was particularly playful. he quickly gave birth to the child and tied her up with the child.
however, this tactic obviously wouldnât work on the duan family. duan linbai already had a grudge against him, so it was even more unrealistic to please xu jiamu. he wasnât sick, so he couldnât go to the hospital every day.
â iâm serious. give me her contact information. iâll call her and ask her out for a meal. iâll explain everything. since itâs a misunderstanding, iâll just make it clear. â
gu yuan gave him duan yinuoâs phone number.
gu yuan did not expect that duan yinuoâs phone would actually be connected. this made him quite uncomfortable. did she just block his phone alone?
in fact, duan yinuoâs cell phone had been turned off the whole time. she just happened to call her parents to tell them that she was going to stay at fu yuâs house for the night, and the time of the call was just a little coincidental.
since it was an unfamiliar number, duan yinuo frowned slightly and picked up the call. â âhello, yingluo.â
âmiss duan, hello, iâm gu ...â
â
the eldest son of the gu family was dumbfounded. the call was hung up? when she called again, her phone was actually turned off.
*
duan yinuo cried so much last night that she did not even bother to turn on her phone or charge it. when the battery was exhausted, she turned it off directly. she could tell that it was brother gu yuanâs voice. she had not adjusted her mood at this time and did not want to face this family. so be it if she hung up.
ânuo nuo, huaisheng and i are going to the countryside to visit master pudu tomorrow. if you have nothing to do, why donât you come with us?â fu yu suggested.
recently, master puduâs symptoms of alzheimerâs disease were quite serious. huaisheng was going to take him to the city for a check-up. although he and fu yu were married directly, there was a small engagement ceremony in between, which invited some important friends and relatives. huaisheng did not have many friends and relatives, so he naturally hoped that master pudu could attend.
âsure,â duan yinuo just wanted to go and relax.
â by the way, iâve discussed with your mother. master pudu will live with us. itâs easier to take care of him. â fu sinian had not fallen asleep yet. when he heard about master pudu, he pushed the door open and walked out.
âhuaisheng has already found a place to stay, and we have also hired a nurse.â fu yu explained.
in fact, it was a little inconvenient to live with an old man, not to mention that he had dementia.
â itâs okay. thereâs an empty room at home anyway, so you can take care of it at home. the caretakers hired outside might not be as responsible as you think. iâve already discussed this with your mother. you can just tell huaisheng later.â
fu yu pursed her lips. â thank you, dad. â
fu sinian did not say anything. he only looked deeply at duan yinuo, whose eyes were red and swollen, before he turned and went into the house.
he wondered if this matter had something to do with gu yuan. however, although he and gu yuan were friends, their age difference was obvious. they had never interacted with each other in private except for work. it was not appropriate to ask rashly.
that was why fu sinian did not contact gu yuan.
gu yuan had also thought of looking for fu sinian or fu yu, but when he was about to make the call, he found that duan yinuo had updated her wechat moments.
it was a beautiful countryside with an ancient path in the autumn wind and yellow leaves everywhere. however, there were no landmarks in this place, so it was impossible to find her.
she had been âmissingâ for more than a week.
he had asked around and also asked fu sinian or fu yu, but he did not make it clear that the father and daughter were busy with their engagement and had no time to talk to him.
when duan yinuo updated her wechat moments again, other than half of her face in the photo, there were a few people he did not know. they were all boys of the same age. this wechat moment was simply too eye-catching.
the eldest son of the gu family glanced at him when he saw him staring at his phone in a daze.
âhow did he shift his love to another person? itâs all your fault for being too cold to the lady.â
gu yuan glanced at him. iâm cold. donât you know whatâs going on?
