Chapter 409: Langlang is Silly but Cute? Third Master Is Disliked?
Duan Linbai’s father called him to his office, patted his shoulder, and urged him earnestly.
“Baibai, I know this task is difficult, but I think your ability is the most outstanding among all of us. That’s why I gave you such a difficult task.
“You are my son. I believe that you’ll definitely be able to live up to my expectations and complete this task without fail.
“You’re usually a little sloppy. This incident will give you a chance to sharpen yourself. Good luck. I have high hopes for you.”
Duan Linbai was stunned.?Who has ever seen someone push their own son into a fiery pit?
He’s really my f*cking father. His reasons are so high and mighty.
“Dad, I think the year-end deadline is too…”
“If you think you can’t complete it, I’ll discuss it with Fu Chen and say that you’re not capable enough. So…”
Duan Linbai shuddered. “I can do it.”
“As expected of my son, I’m very gratified.”
The corners of Duan Linbai’s mouth twitched. When he walked out of the office, he saw Fu Chen waiting for him outside. “How is it?”
“What else can I do? My biological father is too f*cking ruthless. He said that he wants to temper me, and he even said that I have the ability to take on this job. How am I qualified?”
“You have the temperament of a hooligan and a bandit, so you’re suitable for demolishing houses,” Fu Chen explained.
Duan Linbai was so angry that he hammered his shoulder. “You’re the f*cking hooligan. You think about how to get closer to Little Sister-in-Law all day. Unfortunately… your actions aren’t as good as your eldest nephew’s. Look at him. That’s what you call fast, fierce, and accurate. He might even give birth to two children every three years and form a team of grandchildren for you.”
Fu Chen held his bracelet between his fingers. “I heard that some extreme households have bad tempers. Before you go out, buy more insurance, and it’s best to hire more bodyguards.
“I’m afraid your life will be in danger.”
“F*ck, you jinx. I’m a civilized demolition man!” Duan Linbai felt a headache coming on when he thought of this task.
“Hanchuan called and asked us to go to his house to eat crabs tonight. Shall we go?”
“Go! Why not?!”
It was October, a good time to eat crabs. Not all ponds behind the Jing residence raised fish. Some also had prawns and crabs.
***
When the two of them arrived at the Jing residence, the crabs were already being steamed, and Jing Hanchuan was preparing the dipping sauce.
“It smells good.” Duan Linbai went into the kitchen the moment he entered the house. “Your family’s crabs are pretty good this year.”
The prawns and crabs in the Jing residence all ate well, so they were naturally well-nourished and succulent.
“How’s your crab production this year?” Fu Chen asked.
“Not too bad.”
“Let me bring some back later.”
Jing Hanchuan raised his eyebrows. Everyone knew that the eldest daughter of the Fu family, Fu Wan, loved to eat crabs. “I’ll save some for your sister.”
“I still have to bring some to my wife and…”?My future father-in-law.
Jing Hanchuan raised an eyebrow.?This fellow is really getting more and more shameless. He came to my house to eat, yet he still wants to take some away in the end? First, he treated my house like a hotel, and now, he’s even treating it like a restaurant.
“Where’s Sinian? Isn’t he coming?” Duan Linbai rummaged in the fridge for a long time before finally finding some tomato juice he could drink. “Can you get some drinks at home? You have to prepare some alcohol the next time I come to your house.”
Jing Hanchuan said, “I called just now, but no one answered. Try calling again.”
…
At this time, it was a rare moment for Fu Sinian to be alone with Yu Manxi, so he didn’t want to be disturbed. His phone rang, but he wasn’t willing to answer it.
“Hurry up and answer it. It might be something important,” Yu Manxi said.
Only then did Fu Sinian reluctantly take out his phone from his pocket. It was Duan Linbai calling.
“Hey.”
“Sinian, we’re eating crabs at Hanchuan’s house. Are you coming?”
“I’m eating.”
“You’ve eaten? Forget it then…” Duan Linbai hung up.
“When did you eat? You actually lied?” Yu Manxi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
***
The next day, when Yu Manxi woke up in a daze, her side was empty. But there was a pillow in her arms and a note on the bedside table.
[I went out to buy breakfast.]
She lowered her head and smiled. She got up, took a shower, and changed her clothes. Thankfully, she had already started wearing sweaters this season. The high collar design could completely cover the hickeys on her neck. She put on some light makeup. When she walked out of the bedroom, Fu Sinian had already placed the purchased breakfast on the table.
“I don’t know how to cook, so I just bought some food. After eating, I’ll send you to the TV station.”
“Okay.” Yu Manxi nodded.
“If anything happens, call me.”
Fu Sinian didn’t know how to say sweet nothings. Sometimes, Yu Manxi even felt that he was treating her like a child.
But as long as he had something, he would definitely give her the best.
While Yu Manxi was eating breakfast, Fu Sinian returned to his condo and changed his clothes. He wore a white sweater of the same color as hers and a long gray trench coat. He was still wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He wanted to smoke, but he lowered his head and swallowed his quit smoking candy, looking cold and reserved.
Even though she saw him every day, she still felt that he was damn good-looking.
She couldn’t look away at all.
***
After Fu Sinian sent Yu Manxi to the TV station, he went straight to the compound. At this moment, Fu Chen had just arrived. He had eaten crabs at the Jing residence until late last night and had only sent the crabs over in the morning.
Fu Lin loved to eat this kind of food. When her husband, Shen Dongwen, had cooked crabs for the first time in his life, Fu Chen heard that the crabs had even clamped his hands and made him bleed a lot. Now, he knew how to cook crabs, so they naturally let him handle cooking the crabs.
Fu Chen had just sat down when he saw Fu Sinian striding in.
He didn’t cover his neck, so a few hickeys were clearly visible, exposed in front of everyone without any restraint.
“Sinian is back. Come and sit.” When Old Madam Fu saw him, her eyes were shining.
It was as if she could already see her great-granddaughter waving at her.
She knew that Fu Sinian and Yu Manxi might still be taking precautions. But since they were having sex, it would only be a matter of time before the child was born. It was better than Fu Chen.
October was about to end, and the new year was approaching. He had promised to bring his wife back, but there wasn’t even a shadow of her.
He’s not efficient at all!
“Third Son, you should learn more from your nephew. As an elder, you can’t be a role model at all!” Old Madam Fu’s tone was full of disdain.
Fu Chen was too embarrassed to say that if not for his help, how could this brat have gotten his wife so quickly?
Why is she starting to dislike me?
Yu Manxi was having lunch at the station and wouldn’t come, so Fu Sinian naturally stayed at the old residence for lunch.
“This is…” Before eating, Dai Yunqing specially prepared a bowl of soup for him.
Fu Chen sat beside him and glanced at the soup bowl lightly. “Pork kidney soup.”
“Hmm?”
“You’re already in your thirties and not a young man anymore. I specially told Eldest Sister-in-Law, and she immediately made it to supplement you.” Fu Chen smiled at him.
Fu Sinian coughed.?I only showed off a little in the group chat yesterday. There’s no need to play tricks on me like this.
Those who didn’t know would think that he was in poor health..
