Xiao has thought about it for a long time

The man's tone was flat, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing.

The two of them had just stabilized, and suddenly jumped to the step of meeting their parents. Josie was at a loss for a while, but didn't know how to answer. She was dumb for a long time, pursed her red lips, and looked out of the car window with an unnatural expression.

"Oh."

This is agreed.

Except for the old lady, the rest of the Fu family didn't like Josie very much. Josie knew this well. On the surface, the situation was calm, but in fact it might be.

Fu Bei saw through her thoughts, afraid that she would be too anxious and didn't talk too much, he just said it was just a simple meal.

This simple meal kept Josie on edge for a week.

On the day she set off for Cijing Town, she got up early in the morning to wash up and put on makeup. She tried on several skirts, and reluctantly chose a generous and clean white mid-length slim skirt. She didn't dare to put on too much makeup. The whole person looked It's more elegant.

Fu Bei saw it in his eyes, hooked the corners of his lips, and said nothing.

Before going out, Fu Bei called Josie.

Josie tilted her head, "Huh?"

"don’t worry."

"No."

With a smile in his eyes, Fu Bei leaned over and kissed her face.Josie was still a little embarrassed, and muttered, "Don't take off your makeup."

"No." Fu Bei led her out and closed the door, "It's very beautiful."

Josie's eyebrows were crooked, but she was still a little nervous. She didn't speak much along the way. Although her relationship with Fu Bei hadn't been made explicit, it had reached this level. Words speak louder than words. Acquiescing to the other party's status, and Fu Bei went to see Qiao Jianliang alone several times, and Josie knew about it. She thought it was too early to face the people of the Fu family, but who knew that it would come so quickly, and the whole person would be in a mess.

Fu Bei took this relationship very seriously, and from the very beginning, he rushed to the end. Although Father Fu said this time to meet the parents, she also secretly facilitated it. Mr. Fu and Liang Yuzhi will definitely not accept their behavior like this for the time being. , but Dad Fu is different, he has always been neutral, he will not be too opposed, even if he disagrees in his heart, he will be more respectful in his mouth.Fu Bei didn't intend to get his family's approval, he just wanted to give an explanation to this relationship.

Cijing Town is even more lively than the last time I came here. The streets are full of bustling tourists, and the tour guide leads the group around with a loudspeaker.This season is the time when the passenger flow is the largest, and they are just catching up.

Because Mr. Fu is firm and doesn't accept this, the two of them can't go to the courtyard of their hometown.Father Fu was thoughtful, found the best restaurant in the area, and arranged all the accommodation, and went to the town to wait for them in person.

Josie was quite apprehensive at first, but when she arrived at the place, before she had time to speak, Father Fu greeted her first, with a very kind expression on her face, "Xiaoxi."

She was very embarrassed, and replied softly: "Uncle."

Father Fu glanced at Fu Bei who was at the side, and the helplessness flashed across his face, but Josie didn't notice it. He suppressed his emotions and said, "Just now I was thinking about when you would come over, and now it's here, and it's still time before noon." Morning, I will take you to the place where you live first, and then go to the restaurant for dinner later."

Josie hummed, she probably didn't expect Father Fu's attitude to be so gentle. Before she came, she was prepared for a fight, and thought that Mr. Fu would come out to clean up the people, but it turned out so smoothly.

She glanced at Fu Bei, and Fu Bei took her hand at this moment, regardless of Father Fu's presence.

She froze for a moment, afraid that Dad Fu would see something bad and wanted to break free, but Fu Bei held her tightly, preventing her from breaking free, and said softly, "Let's go, it's almost over. "

The place I live in is a homestay with an elegant environment. Father Fu has already reserved it, and there will only be the two of them as guests in the next two days.Father Fu helped the two of them pull their suitcases. He didn't put on airs during the whole process, and tried to be as calm as possible. From time to time, he took the initiative to talk to Josie and asked her how she was doing.

The overly kind attitude made Josie extra cautious, and the feeling of embarrassment when seeing parents lingered, and she was even more restrained when eating.

In fact, Father Fu failed to fully accept the relationship between the two of them, but after all, he was clear about it a few years ago. After so many years of entanglement, there is still no way out. Fu Bei likes girls. There will be other girls, all the same, no difference.

Before coming here, Fu Bei made his words very clear. Anyway, he just brought him back to have a look, and if he didn't accept it, let it go.

Now that the Fu family is a piece of shit, how could he still be in the mood to play tricks to break it up? Even if he did, Fu Bei would never obey, and the quarrel with the family might get even worse.Moreover, Fu Bei brought Josie back, which meant that she still cared about this family. No matter what, the people of the Fu family still held a certain weight in her heart.

Father Fu has a steelyard in his heart, and he can measure things clearly.He had no choice but to take care of Josie at the dinner table, and asked Josie about his future plans and plans.

Josie hesitated for a while, hesitating whether to say nice words, and finally said the truth: "When my dad can take over the company, I will go back to open a tattoo shop. I don't have the talent to do business, and I can't manage the company well."

"Or Qijing Street?" Dad Fu asked, not surprised by this.

"It should be." Josie nodded.

"That's pretty good." Father Fu said, looked at Fu Bei again, muttered for a while, and continued, "Do something you like, and be the number one in your career."

The exchange was quite pleasant, without any small friction.Josie was keenly aware of Papa Fu's expression of disappointment for a moment, probably because she regretted that Fu Bei chose to become a university teacher instead of inheriting the family business. She pretended not to see it until Papa Fu left at dusk, and with Fu Bei After taking a shower and lying on the bed, she asked, "Why did you choose to be a university teacher?"

Fu Bei was brushing his hair. Hearing the words, he paused and thought carefully, "I want to live a clean life."

"that's it?"

"Ah."

"Students are so noisy, where is it clean?" Josie laughed, and then thought of the last time I went to Jiangda to see her in class, and felt that these two words had nothing to do with each other.

Fu Bei sat by the bed and wiped it for her by the way, "It's cleaner than doing business."

That's true, Josie has only been in the company for a long time, and she is overwhelmed by all kinds of trivial work and tasks every day, and has to deal with the board of directors' old slickers, socialize, socialize, and if she meets a partner who is a habitual offender or dies Shameless, even more annoyed.

There are gains and losses in everything. It seems that he is a master in the business field, but he has experienced so many disgusting things in secret. Hands and feet are not the most disgusting. Josie has seen a lot these days, and he is more familiar with these things. disgusted.

"Are you going to be a teacher all the time?" She asked with her head tilted. She had just taken a hot bath, her lips were rosy, her skin was white and clean, and she looked like she had just been peeled out of the shell, exuding a faint fragrance of shower gel.

Fu Bei sniffed her ear lightly, and touched the small earlobe, "If you can keep it, you can do it."

She has just officially resumed her job now, and it is still unknown what will happen in the future. If the school is really not going well, she may have to find another way out.

Josie could figure it out, and dodged sensitively, and was caught by the other party before he could dodge.

"Don't move around, I'll blow your hair right away."

She had to stay still.

These days, the two of them get along more and more tenderly, even a simple blow-drying of their hair can show their affection. Fu Bei is a person who doesn't show his face, and he always does more than he says.Because they had to see Father Fu again the next day, the two of them didn't dare to indulge that night, they hugged each other tenderly for a while, and went to bed early.

Grandpa Fu knew that the two of them were coming, and even more that Father Fu went out to see them, so he was so angry that he couldn't even speak.

Just scolding wasn't enough to relieve his anger, and he was so anxious that he almost smashed things. Fortunately, his aunt at home stopped him, and he was so emotional that his heart hurt, and he groaned and felt uncomfortable.

But to no avail, Fu's father muffled his voice, scolded and vented his anger, and went out early the next morning.

"I'm willing to be pissed off, I'll be pissed off!" Grandpa Fu stomped his cane while scolding, but unfortunately, when he finished scolding, no one was there.

Father Fu would not mention this in front of the two juniors, he was considerate and measured.On the day he left Cijing Town, he sent Josie and Fu Bei off, and asked Josie to bring back some special products. As soon as he sent them away, Grandpa Fu came. Give him a cane.

"I asked you to come?!" Grandpa Fu's tone was blunt, almost blowing his beard and staring.

It wasn't too hard to hit him with a cane, so Dad Fu didn't care too much, and went to help him, "It's alright, alright, let's go back now."

Grandpa Fu walked in front, didn't take two steps, and suddenly looked back, but there was no trace of the car on the busy street, and he couldn't see anything.

On the other hand, Qiao Jianliang accidentally learned about going to Cijing Town to meet Father Fu. Qiao Jianliang was not very happy, so he asked a few words in a cryptic manner. , is getting more and more uncomfortable.

The attitude of the Fu family was too bad, in his opinion, it was really insincere, and besides, he didn't treat Fu Bei that much, and twice when Fu Bei came over, he didn't even give them a glass of water.

But after that, he restrained himself and felt that he had done too much. The Fu family was the Fu family, and Fu Bei was Fu Bei, so he stopped doing such inconsiderate things.

During the National Day holiday in early October, Josie and Fu Bei didn't go out for a trip. They stayed in the community for two days, and then took turns to take care of Qiao Jianliang.Qiao Jianliang is recovering very well, and he is expected to return to the company next year. Although he can't do high-intensity work at first, at least he has something to look forward to. Josie is also happy that he is recovering well, and looks forward to ending this boring life soon. workplace life.

At the hospital, Zhou Lin’s condition has already stabilized, but there is no sign of waking up at all. He still has feelings. One day Zhou Meihe was crying and talking to him while guarding the hospital bed, reflecting and regretting what he had done in the past , Zhou Lin also shed tears. At that time, Zhou Meihe was very excited, thinking that this was about to wake up, but after all, the joy was in vain.

During these days, Zhou Meihe lost a lot of weight, her complexion was very haggard, and her face was even paler than Zhou Lin's.

Josie will go to the hospital when she has time, but she won't show too much concern, just a little care will be enough.

Zhou Meihe wiped her tears for the first time, and said to her: "Thank you, I come here often."

But Josie didn't feel very emotional, let alone change anything because of it.

Qiao Jianliang, on the other hand, was a husband and wife after all, he felt very uncomfortable seeing all this, even though he didn't have deep feelings for his stepson, but he couldn't help feeling sorry for the child who was only in his teens.

Of course, everyone didn't know what Zhou Lin had done, otherwise Josie would have done something else, so why would she visit the hospital.

Since the estrangement from each other, Josie has hardly seen Zhao Shihuan again, but Fu Bei met Zhao Shihuan at an alumni reunion.

Zhao Shihuan is not an alumnus of Jiang University, but she has donated a lot to Jiang University this year, so she was specially invited to be a guest here, and Fu Bei is one of the person in charge of the reception.The friends who grew up together in the past are no longer the same when they meet again, and they can't even squeeze out a few pleasantries, and there is nothing to say.

That's right, now one is galloping in the business field, proud of the spring breeze, and the other has withdrawn from disputes, concentrating on research and education, has lost communication for a long time, and is no longer a person of the same world.

Zhao Shihuan reached out to Fu Bei first, and called out, "Professor Fu."

He took the initiative to distance himself and drew a clear line.

Fu Bei was expressionless, and responded lukewarmly: "Mr. Zhao."

From the outsiders' point of view, this scene is so harmonious and friendly. This scene is very memorable, but only the two people involved know what it feels like.

After the dinner, Zhao Shihuan walked up to Fu Bei when no one was around, and asked in a voice that only two people could hear, "How is Qiao Qiao?"

Without raising his eyes, Fu Bei said flatly, "That's it."

The two of them used to be friends, and some things they said and some things they did would not be put on the bright side, but now it is different.But Zhao Shihuan just asked, and after chatting for a while, he took the initiative to whisper: "If you need help in the future, you can come to me."

Whether what he said was sincere or just a formality, Fu Bei didn't investigate, but for a long time later, he never contacted Zhao Shihuan again, and Zhao Shihuan didn't show up either.They were friends at first, but unfortunately they were separated by Josie and colluded with the government and businessmen, so they can no longer get along like they did many years ago, not to mention their friendship gradually faded a few years ago.

Fu Bei didn't tell Josie about it, and didn't mention Zhao Shihuan's name.

At night, she was very possessive, and she did it several times, kissing Josie repeatedly, not even giving Josie a break to speak.

Josie also had something to be resolved, but it happened later, when every family was preparing for the New Year in the second ten days of the twelfth lunar month, Qin Si, who had been away for a long time, began to send her messages every three days, and ordered bouquets to be delivered to her home .

When she received flowers for the first time, Josie didn't pay much attention. After all, Tang Yi would buy her flowers during the holidays.

However, after receiving it for the second time, she didn't quite understand this approach, and always felt that it was not very good, but Qin Si didn't say it directly, and there was nothing strange about her behavior and speaking on the phone.Josie is not a narcissistic person, and it is not easy to ask straight to the point, so she just politely asked the other party not to send it off, there is no need for that.

Qin Si didn't listen to it, and continued sending it off for a whole day.

Fu Bei knew the truth, her complexion was getting uglier every day, she would not lose her temper with Josie, after all Josie was also very helpless, but there was nothing Qin Si could do about it, so she could only take out the flowers with a dark face Throw it in the trash and replace it with something you bought yourself.

She was usually so serious, but now she was so competitive. Josie said helplessly, "I don't accept her flowers, so don't buy them every day."

Fu Bei asked back, "Don't you like flowers?"

She did the same thing earlier.

"No." Josie shook his head, "There are too many, one or two bunches are enough, too many can only be left to wither."

Fu Bei could hear the words and didn't send any more.

But he just stopped sending flowers, and after a while, maybe he was stimulated by Qin Si's stalking spirit, so he gave some special "small gifts" instead.

The first time I received a small gift was on the night of the 29th. Josie's ears were red, and she curled up under the quilt. On the contrary, this person became even more out of shape, and her thin lips almost kissed Josie's ear. A slightly hoarse voice said: "Tomorrow night..."

The next night is New Year's Eve.

Josie didn't respond, and lay upright under the quilt for a long time.

She didn't sleep much that night, and suffered from insomnia, so that when she returned to the compound for the holiday the next day, the corners of her eyes were black and blue.

This year's New Year's Eve went more smoothly than last year. The two also went to the central square of Qijing Street to celebrate the New Year with many people in Jiangcheng, and they didn't return home until early in the morning.

As soon as he entered the house, Fu Bei went to kiss Josie first, and walked towards the room while kissing.
