“If you’re not sleeping, can I stay here a little longer?”
After she said this, Fu Sinian crossed his arms and looked at her calmly. His sharp eyes reflected by the mirror seemed to be able to cut her apart inch by inch and clearly see through her thoughts.
Being stared at by Fu SInian, she felt slightly uncomfortable, and she was so nervous that she felt weak.
But before he could speak, her phone rang.
“Sorry, I’ll go answer it.” She took out her phone and walked to the balcony at the side…
“Hey, Little Yu…”
Fu Sinian’s fingers on his elbow lightly tapped on it twice. A man’s voice?
“Why are you still awake?” She held the phone and leaned against the balcony. She was wearing a pair of slippers, and her exposed ankles were swaying slightly. Her ankles were fair and clear, as though they were glowing.
“… It’s fine. You don’t have to come over. The landlord just came, and the plumbers are repairing it now.
“This place is in the suburbs, so there aren’t many hotels nearby. Besides, if I go out at this hour, I can’t even get a taxi, let alone go to the city center…
“It should be fixed tonight. You really don’t have to come over. If I really can’t stay here any longer, then I’ll tell you. I’m not dumb. When have you ever seen me mistreat myself?”
…
By the time she ended the call, Fu Sinian was no longer in the living room. She tentatively walked into the condo and found him sitting in the study, typing on a keyboard. A few computers had been set up together, and the light emanating from the monitors made his face look even colder.
His fingers were long and slender, and complemented by the dark keyboard, they looked very beautiful. He looked serious as he stared at a monitor expressionlessly.
“Erm…” She had never wooed anyone before. If she still continued to stay here despite the owner being unhappy about it, she would feel embarrassed.
“Sit anywhere you like in the living room.” Fu Sinian didn’t look up at her while speaking.
She was dumbfounded for a moment before smiling gently. “Thank you.”
Her smile was dazzling.
…
With an outsider at home, Fu Sinian couldn’t work in peace. The woman had a fragrant smell. And when she passed by him, she exuded an alluring cold fragrance mixed with a hint of the scent of alcohol that had yet to disperse, making him unable to calm down.
It’s true what people say about seductresses being able to make people fall head over heels for them.
He got up to make a cup of coffee. When he passed by the living room, Miss Yu was leaning on the sofa and sleeping soundly.
Even the sound of him making coffee didn’t wake her up. He leaned against the wall and looked sideways at her.
It had only been around five minutes, but she was already sleeping very soundly.
He constantly stayed up late, so his sleep schedule was a mess. He suffered from severe insomnia, and his sleep was very shallow. This also caused him to have a huge temper when people woke him up. But this person was totally different. The water pipe in her condo burst, yet she can still immediately fall asleep in a stranger’s home?
She’s really bold.
Isn’t she afraid that I might be a bad person?
Fu Sinian stared at her just like that and finished half the cup of coffee when someone knocked on the door outside…
“Hello, is Miss Yu here?” The plumber’s face was also red from the cold.
“She’s asleep.”
The pumper was stunned for a moment. “Then, please tell her that the water pipe is temporarily repaired. It’s too cold at this hour, so the pipes are all frozen. We’ll come back tomorrow to do a thorough check and repair. The landlord has already settled the bill with us.”
“Okay.” Fu Sinian nodded.
After sending the plumber off, he turned his head around and saw that a certain someone was still asleep. This made him feel rather helpless, and he could only keep her for the night.
Fu Sinian worked until six in the morning before returning to his room to sleep, while she had curled up on the sofa and slept through the entire night. Even when he finished his work, she still hadn’t woken up. He had never seen anyone who could sleep so soundly.
…
When he woke up, it was already three in the afternoon. She had left a note in the living room, and there was a breakfast beside it, which had long turned cold.
[Thank you for taking me in. I have nothing to repay you for it. If there’s a chance, I’ll treat you to a meal.]
From: Yu Manxi.
Fu Sinian pinched the note between his fingers and exerted force on his fingertips, instinctively wanting to crush it and throw it away. But after hesitating for a moment, he put it into his pocket.
***
Over the next few days, Fu Sinian was busy going on blind dates. Since it was almost Lunar New Year, he had a lot of work to do, so he basically never went home. And naturally, he didn’t see Miss Yu again.
Song Fengwan had also finished her last school enrollment examination and would be setting off back to Yuncheng the next day to prepare for her cultural classes.
The night before she left Beijing, the two elders of the Fu family specially arranged a large feast at home and invited all the juniors to the old Fu residence for dinner.
At this time, it was less than ten days away from Lunar New Year, and the festive atmosphere in the Fu family was already very strong. With her children and grandchildren all around her, Old Madam Fu was smiling from ear to ear. She couldn’t bear to part with Song Fengwan, so she kept holding her hand as they chatted.

Before dinner started, Shen Jinye was still accompanying Huai Sheng to do his homework in the study.
Fu Chen and Old Master Fu sat down at the table and played a few rounds of chess while Fu Sinian sat by the side and watched.
Old Master Fu moved the chess piece in his hand and easily took down one of Fu Chen’s chess pieces. “Third Son, how did Sun Rui provoke you for you to be so ruthless to her?”
“Hmm?” He supported his chin with one hand and spoke slowly.
“That incident caused such an uproar, and the Sun family came to find us so many times. Your mother and I dismissed them with the excuse that we weren’t sure, but I think they’re starting to hate you.”
“So what?” His tone was as casual as usual.
“This morning, I heard that Sun Rui cut her wrist.”
Fu Chen smiled and took down one of his father’s chess pieces. “Dad, you believe that?”
Old Master Fu smiled at him.
Sun Rui’s matter involved aristocratic families, and the public was happy to watch the commotion, so the popularity of the incident wasn’t going down. Releasing the news of her committing suicide and cutting her wrist now just meant that she had endured too much cyber violence and was on the verge of breaking down. The Sun family would then take the opportunity to clear her name, so the matter would soon be covered up.
“I’m just worried that you and your second sister-in-law…” Old Master Fu pinched the space between his eyebrows. “She was already very annoyed by what happened with Yuxiu. Now that something has happened to her maternal family, and your methods were too domineering and overbearing, she might want to settle scores with you.”
Fu Chen lowered his head and studied the layout of the chess pieces on the chessboard without saying anything.
“Sinian, go upstairs and call Jinye and Huai Sheng to come down for dinner.” Old Madam Fu was happy tonight, so her words were full of vigor.
…
Around ten minutes later, all of them sat around the dining table. Huai Sheng was sitting right beside Old Madam Fu, and she kept putting food into his bowl…
“Grandma, have a chicken drumstick.” Huai Sheng picked up a chicken drumstick for her.
Old Madam Fu smiled as she patted his head. “Eat it yourself. My teeth aren’t too good, so I can’t eat these things.”
“Sinian…” She suddenly changed the topic. “Look at how cute this child is. Do you think I’ll be able to see my great-grandson in my lifetime?”
Fu Sinian gripped his chopsticks tightly and remained silent.
“Ahhh, if I can see you get married and have children, I will have no regrets even if I die. It’s a pity you children nowadays are too ambitious and don’t want to get married…”
Song Fengwan turned her head and looked at Fu Sinian. He’s being urged to get married everywhere. How pitiful.
“Third Son…” Old Madam Fu suddenly changed her target.
“Hmm?” Fu Chen was peeling prawns with his head lowered. He threw one in Song Fengwan’s bowl and another one to Shen Jinye.
Shen Jinye was scared and dumbfounded. What the f*ck? He peeled a prawn for me?
What kind of godly treatment is this? he thought while poking the prawn.
It isn’t poisoned, is it?
Seeing Song Fengwan eat one, he opened his mouth shakily and took a bite. So many strange things have happened this year.
“Don’t forget what you promised me,” Old Madam Fu reminded.
“I won’t.” Fu Chen smiled and peeled another prawn for Huai Sheng.
“Thank you, Third Uncle.”
Third Son has a cold personality and doesn’t know how to be considerate toward others. Yet now, he’s peeling prawns for others? Old Madam Fu was relieved. From the looks of it, I’ll definitely be able to see his wife in my lifetime.
Old Madam Fu chatted about everything and anything. One moment, she reminded Song Fengwan to study hard after going back to Yuncheng, and the next moment, she changed the topic and looked at Shen Jinye. “Jinye, do you have a girlfriend in university yet?”
“Not yet.” Shen Xiye smiled bitterly.
“When you meet someone suitable in university, be good to her. Don’t learn from your big brother and become an old bachelor.”
Fu Sinian lowered his head and adjusted the thin-framed glasses on his nose bridge. If it was anyone else saying this, he would have gotten angry. But the one speaking was his biological grandmother. He had been insensible when he was young, and he had talked back to her before. And then he had almost been beaten to death by his grandfather, so he didn’t dare to talk back to her from then on.
“Okay,” Shen Jinye answered.
“I heard you’re staying at Third Son’s house and getting along well with Wanwan. Then…”
Song Fengwan’s heart skipped a beat. Is she…
Shen Jinye was also scared out of his wits. Song Fengwan wasn’t bad, but she was still a senior high school student. Although he was only two years older than her, entering university was equivalent to stepping half a foot into society. He treated her as a younger sister, but he actually still thought that she was still a child.
Fu Chen had his head lowered and was peeling a prawn. His fingers tightened, and he crushed the head of the prawn. The prawn juice almost splashed onto Shen Xiye’s face…
F*ck, that scared me to death.
“Sorry, my hand slipped,” Fu Chen said self-justifiably and then threw the prawn head away casually.
But before Old Madam Fu could finish speaking, a servant ran into the house. “Old Master, Old Madam, Second Madam is back.”
Other than Huai Sheng, who still had his head lowered and was eating a chicken drumstick, everyone put down their chopsticks.
Picking this time to come back, she was probably…
… not here with good intentions.
