The journey from Yuncheng to Beijing wasnât short. About three hours later, the car stopped at a service station on the highway. Duan Linbai was the first to jump out of the car.
F*ck, Qian Jiang, that idiot. Itâs colder inside the car than outside.
He wrapped himself up tightly and ran to the hot water dispensers. On the way, he was very careful, for fear of being recognized.
âWhere is he going in such a hurry?â Shi Fang got out of the car and stretched. He nudged Qian Jiang and lowered his head to unwrap a piece of chewing gum.
âHe might be in a hurry to go to the toilet.â This service stationâs restroom was right next to the hot water dispensers.
âI knew it. Heâs moving weirdly like he has the jitters. Heâs either a thief or needs to pee,â Shi Fang muttered.
If Duan Linbai heard this, he would definitely come out and smash their dog heads.
His throat was so dry that it hurt, so he drank some hot water to moisten his throat.
After all, he was a celebrity to some extent, so he had to disguise himself when he went out.
Duan Linbai came out with a thermos cup with Malva nuts soaking in it. He saw Song Fengwan rubbing her slightly red eyes as she got out of the car. She greeted the few people before heading to the restroom.
Her footsteps were a little unsteady.
Duan Linbai was stunned.
What the f*ck?!
Her eyes are red, and her footsteps are unsteady? What were they doing in the car?!
This old beast didnât lay his hands on her in the car, rightâ¦
Heâs insane!

When the car arrived in the capital, it was already evening. Fu Chen sent a message to Duan Linbai, asking if he wanted to go back to the old residence for dinner. A certain someone gladly accepted.
He didnât dare to go home now.
His father said that if he didnât bring someone home this time, he wouldnât let him in. His voice was still hoarse. If he went back like this, he wouldnât even be able to retort.?Itâs better to go to the Fu family residence to hide.
The moment the car stopped, Fu Xinhan hurriedly ran to the car to wait.
âAhem, Fu Xinhanââ Duan Linbai started teasing the dog the moment he got out of the car.
His voice had been hoarse all day, but he could finally speak in the evening. His voice was as dry and unpleasant as the sound of wood being sawed.
Fu Xinhan glanced at him coldly, looking arrogant and aloof.
âThis new outfit looks good. Come, take a photo.â It was cold, so Fu Xinhan was wearing a floral sweater. It was obvious that this was the style Old Madam Fu liked.
Song Fengwan got out of the car and saw Duan Linbai half-squatting on the ground to take a photo of Fu Xinhan.
Fu Xinhan, who initially looked very aloof, suddenly grinned when he saw the cameraâ¦
The flash went by, and the smile froze on his face. He then put on a cold expression again, pretending to be aloof.
But Duan Linbai kept taking pictures, so Fu Xinhan kept switching between looking aloof and looking silly.
âCome, change your pose,â Duan Linbai said.
Fu Xinhan wanted to pounce over and bite him.?Iâm so angry. Isnât this person done yet? Hurry up and scram after youâve finished taking pictures. This dog is very busy.
âLittle Bai, youâre here. I havenât seen you in a long time. I heard that youâre sick. How are you?â Old Madam Fu welcomed him with a smile.
âSeeing you, all my illnesses have disappeared.â A certain someone went over and hugged Old Madan Fu, currying favor with her.
âEnough. Why are you still as frivolous as when you were young?â
âHe lacks someone to discipline him,â Fu Chen said slowly.?How is this being frivolous? Heâs clearly shameless.
Duan Linbai glared at him fiercely.?Youâre the one who lacks discipline.
âThird Son is right. A man can only truly grow up after getting married and having a wife.
âWith your personality, you should find someone with a stronger personality to manage you.
âThereâs still a few months until the new year. Itâs the peak period for blind dates. When Iâm helping Third Son look for a partner later, Iâll also help you look for one.â
âGrandma, Iâ¦â Duan Linbai wanted to cry.?Iâm here to take refuge. Why am I suddenly going to go on blind dates?
âAhemââ Old Master Fuâs gaze swept past Duan Linbai. Duan Linbaiâs hand immediately loosened from holding Old Madam Fu.
This family must be the reincarnation of jealousy spirits.
Everyone was well aware of what happened to the Song family, so they had the tacit understanding not to mention it.
The Fu family felt sorry toward Song Fengwan as well, and they wondered what had possessed Fu Yuxiu.
So when Fu Yuxiuâs mother returned, the elderly couple said a few things about it. Sun Qionghua would naturally do a good job of educating her son, so they didnât interfere.
Before the meal, Duan Linbai tugged at Fu Chenâs clothes and lowered his hoarse voice. âThird Fu, you sure can keep it a secret. They donât know about it, right?â
Fu Chen tugged the corner of his shirt back from Duan Linbaiâs hands and didnât respond.
âIf you want me to keep it a secret, shouldnât you give me some benefits?â
Fu Chen turned his head and glanced at him.
His gaze was cold and sinister. It was obvious that he wanted to kill him to silence him.
What the f*ck? Didnât I just threaten you a bit? Do you really want to take my life?
âControl your mouth, or else, tomorrow the internet will be full of pictures of your nude fair butt from last year.â
Duan Linbai was so angry that he was about to explode. He coughed continuously and almost coughed out his organs.
His fair face turned red, and he almost couldnât breathe.
Actually, Fu Chen couldnât be blamed for this. A certain someone thought that he had tanned his skin bronze, so he came back to show off and invited his friends to visit him.
In order to show off his masculinity, he deliberately undressed at the swimming pool to show off his skin color. He even got them to get their cameras ready, saying that this moment was worth remembering, and thenâ¦

But with Duan Linbai around, the entire meal was full of laughter and joy.
Song Fengwan had a smile on her face the whole time. There were a few times when she almost spat out her rice when he teased her.
Fu Chen narrowed his eyes and glanced at Duan Linbai.?This idiot is still slightly useful.
âLittle Sister, you havenât had a good rest recently either. Why donât you take two more days off school to recuperate? Iâll bring you out to play tomorrow. Youâve been in Beijing for so long, but you havenât been out much, right?â Duan Linbai smiled.
âThatâs right. Go out for a day or two to relax.â Old Madam Fu agreed. âAnyway, itâs the weekend tomorrow. You might as well wait until Monday to go to class.â
With something like that happening in her family, it wouldnât be good for her to keep holding it in.
Song Fengwan was indeed not in the mood to study and nodded with a smile.
âDonât worry about anything else. Iâll arrange it for you.â Duan Linbai gave Fu Chen a look.
Fu Chen lowered his gaze and didnât say anything.?Itâll be good for her to go out and play.
When they finished dinner, it was only a quarter past seven. Old Madam Fu was talking to Song Fengwan, and Fu Chen wasnât in a hurry to leave.
âOld Master, the people of the Cheng family are here again.â Although Uncle Zhong controlled his volume, everyone in the living room heard him.
âDidnât I ask you to send him away?â Old Master Fu looked displeased.
âHe said that he wonât leave unless you see him.â Uncle Zhong was also helpless about it.
âThen bring them in. Some things should indeed be discussed properly.â Old Madam Fu pursed her lips and smiled.
