After everybody ate some dinner at will, Qiao Yuan’s complexion wasn’t actually good, and he was helped again to his room by Lu Ye with a listless look.
Tang Zhou bumped into Lu Ye on the best way again to his room. Seeing him in a rush, he requested, “The place are you going?”
“I’ll exit and purchase some drugs for the chilly and two new pairs of sneakers. Your sneakers are moist, proper? Do you wish to purchase a pair too?”
The standard of the sneakers they put on wasn’t good. Though they might not be capable to purchase the identical high quality round right here, it was nice to put on them for 2 days.
Tang Zhou initially had this intention, however after Fu Shen purchased him a shoe dryer, he gave up this concept.
“I don’t want one.”
“Then what are you going to put on tomorrow?”
“With a shoe dryer, it ought to dry in a single day.”
“…”
Lu Ye shot him an odd look, “You weren’t so easy earlier than.”
Tang Zhou’s expression remained unchanged: “Advance preview of life after chapter.”
Lu Ye was speechless, waved his hand and turned away.
Wanting on the carefree Lu Ye now, Tang Zhou faintly sighed.
He didn’t need the dream to come back true.
“Lu Ye.”
The good-looking man turned his head. “Need to purchase sneakers once more?”
“No,” Tang Zhou smiled, “Once you come again, I’ll inform you one thing.”
Lu Ye narrowed his expression, didn’t ask a lot, nodded and stated sure.
Again within the room, Fu Shen sat on the couch and lowered his head to play along with his telephone very quietly.
Considering of the e-mail despatched by Mouse loves Rice, Tang Zhou couldn’t assist feeling responsible.
What occurred within the dream had one thing to do with Fu Shen, however he was positively not the perpetrator.
He sat down on the other couch and stated casually, “Thanks and your teammates immediately.”
Fu Shen appeared up in shock, feeling unusual.
Tang Shen may nonetheless say such issues.
Tang Zhou wasn’t actually chilly and unkind, in any other case he wouldn’t have crammed Tang Zhen’s debt stupidly in his dream and put himself in it.
What’s extra, all his woes have been seen by Fu Shen, and in entrance of Fu Shen, he didn’t have to hold the identification of the Tang household inheritor.
“I heard that you simply guys got here to take part within the competitors. How was the end result?”
Seeing that he was focused on chatting, Fu Shen couldn’t assist however put down his telephone and sat upright just a little.
“Type of received the job carried out.”
Tang Zhou: “…”
The duty of the varsity was positively to win the award. Finishing the duty means getting the award. He didn’t know what the award was.
He didn’t ask a lot, and altered the subject: “What do you consider Qiao Yuan?”
Fu Shen raised his eyebrows barely.
“Full of life and cheerful, easy and enthusiastic.”
Tang Zhou clasped his hand. He pinched the palm of his left hand with the fingertips of his proper hand, and summoned up the braveness to say bluntly, “Lu Ye has at all times felt that you’ll harm Qiao Yuan, and he’s just a little repulsive to you. I didn’t deal with you nicely due to some prejudices earlier than. I’m very sorry.”
He was sincerely apologizing. Whether or not his prejudice harmed Fu Shen or not, he ought to apologize for it.
Fu Shen clearly didn’t anticipate him to instantly come to this situation. He was shocked. He was silent for fairly some time earlier than he recovered his expression. He faintly stated, “No want.”
He had no ailing emotions in the direction of Qiao Yuan, and he actually didn’t have a positive impression. Even when Qiao Yuan may be implicated sooner or later, he wouldn’t care in any respect.
He didn’t want this type of hypocritical apology.
Tang Zhou didn’t have the temperament to cower on the subject of issues. Seeing that Fu Shen was just a little resistant, he instantly gave the surprising data.
“Qiao Chengan, he’s the one you wish to take revenge on.” Dealing with Fu Shen’s instantly sunken eyes, Tang Zhou calmly stated, “You approached Qiao Yuan earlier than, for a similar cause…”
“I approached him?” Fu Shen appeared to have heard a joke and requested rhetorically with a faux smile.
Tang Zhou was caught for some time due to his angle, and stated doubtfully, “Lu Ye stated earlier than that each time he went to Qiao Yuan, you have been there. It didn’t appear to be a coincidence.”
As quickly because the voice fell, Fu Shen’s expression was touched, solely then did it sink in that he was fallacious.
In accordance with Lu Ye’s possessiveness in the direction of Qiao Yuan, he should have thought that Fu Shen had ideas about Qiao Yuan, so he investigated Fu Shen. In consequence, he discovered that Fu Shen and Qiao Chengan have been father and son, and he got here up with a conspiracy principle that Fu Shen would harm Qiao Yuan.
It sounded a bit foolish, however Lu Ye’s feelings for Qiao Yuan bordered on paranoia, and there was nothing fallacious with pondering exterior the field.
Lu Ye’s subjectively influenced Tang Zhou. He initially hated illegitimate kids, particularly illegitimate kids who didn’t know their place. He discovered that Fu Shen was the son left by Qiao Chengan. Earlier than he met Fu Shen, he had a little bit of prejudice.
Later, Fu Shen discovered him right here for funding. On the one hand, he was just a little within the mission, however alternatively, he was unwilling to put money into an formidable “illegitimate baby”. After struggling, he then proposed the situations for Fu Shen to be his private assistant.
A infantile and paranoid outrage.
Nonetheless, Fu Shen within the dream later gave him a style of being an assistant, which was thought to be consuming his personal bitter fruit1.
However now, Fu Shen’s rhetorical query instantly made him understand that maybe along with prejudice and relentless anger, he additionally made one other mistake——listening to others and believing others.
Lu Ye’s view of Fu Shen had at all times been strongly subjective. His emotions for Qiao Yuan might be described as “love mind”.
The ridicule in Fu Shen’s eyes grew to become an increasing number of apparent, Tang Zhou’s face instantly grew to become scorching, and the surging sense of disgrace made him dare not take a look at him in any respect.
“Senior Tang, you’ll be able to consider me any manner you need, so long as it doesn’t intervene with the mission growth.”
Fu Shen didn’t wish to clarify extra, so he received up and wished to depart.
“Fu Shen.”
Tang Zhou buckled his wrist abruptly, this appeared to be the primary time he had referred to as his identify so significantly.
Fu Shen didn’t transfer his hand, trying down at Tang Zhou on the couch.
The younger man raised his head, his comfortable hair was neatly pressed to his ears and sideburns, his eyebrows have been barely frowned, and his mild brown eyes mirrored the spherical lights on the ceiling, which have been astonishingly shiny.
He wished to say one thing, however he didn’t say something for fairly some time.
The knock on the door subsequent door woke up the 2 of them. Tang Zhou subconsciously let go of his palms and lowered his head, like an deserted baby, hiding alone within the nook, holding his knees and holding again tears.
Fu Shen pinched the wrist that had simply been held, and his eyes sank a couple of instances.
“I’ll exit for some time.” Tang Zhou stood up abruptly, and with out ready for Fu Shen’s response, his determine disappeared exterior the door.
He leaned towards the wall of the hall and instantly wished to smoke.
To be sincere, he and Fu Shen have been only a cooperative relationship, there was no want to carry on to the previous.
He didn’t have to care, and Fu Shen wouldn’t care both.
However he simply felt a bit bothered, a form of self-scorned boredom.
Lu Ye got here again with a chilly face, and when he noticed Tang Zhou wandering within the hall, he couldn’t assist however ask, “What are you doing?”
Tang Zhou requested rhetorically, “What’s fallacious with you?”
When he went out, his face grew to become so darkish.
Lu Ye was in a considerably depressed temper, and was on the lookout for somebody to speak to.
“I’ll put my stuff inside first and discover a place to speak later.”
There was an open area on the finish of the resort hall. Few individuals got here. The 2 stood in entrance of the window, each expressionless.
Lu Ye couldn’t maintain again first, frowning tightly, “Are you aware who I noticed?”
“Who?”
“Xiao Yuan’s father.”
There was one thing in Tang Zhou’s instinct, “Mr. Qiao got here to Fancheng?”
“Not solely did he come, he additionally introduced his secretary, they…” Lu Ye gritted his tooth and couldn’t proceed.
Considering that Qiao Yuan admired his father very a lot, Lu Ye couldn’t bear to inform Qiao Yuan these nasty issues.
Tang Zhou waited in silence.
Lu Ye’s face was utterly black: “It’s not sufficient for him to have Fu Shen as an illegitimate baby. He nonetheless needs to cheat. It’s d__n disgusting. Tang Zhou, I nonetheless don’t perceive. What do you consider Fu Shen? Don’t you hate these individuals probably the most?”
Exterior the window, the rain continued. Tang Zhou sighed frivolously and requested, “Do you assume that Qiao Yuan is the one sufferer?”
“And Aunt Sheng.”
Qiao Yuan’s mom’s surname was Sheng.
Tang Zhou shook his head barely.
“Have you ever ever thought that Fu Shen can also be a sufferer?”
Lu Ye didn’t examine intimately. He solely knew the father-son relationship between Fu Shen and Qiao Chengan, however he didn’t know what occurred again then.
Folks’s hearts are biased.
In Lu Ye’s eyes, Qiao Yuan was easy and intelligent. Naturally, he was good. Fu Shen wasn’t shallow and his intention was to occupy the magpie’s nest2.
He was shocked by Tang Zhou’s phrases.
“What are you speaking about?”
Tang Zhou appeared faintly, and handed him the e-mail on his telephone.
“Twenty years in the past, Qiao Chengan deserted his girlfriend and selected Aunt Sheng, who has a formidable household background. It’s so simple as that.”
Again then, Qiao Chengan deceived Fu Shen’s mom, saying that he would go to the large metropolis to earn cash, and watch for him to come back again to select her up when he made cash.
Not lengthy after he left, Fu Shen’s mom discovered that she was pregnant and wished to contact the opposite particular person, however she couldn’t contact him.
She didn’t know that Qiao Chengan had unilaterally reduce off contact. She had been nervous that one thing would occur to him. Shortly after giving start to the kid, she died of melancholy.
Fu Shen’s grandfather may solely endure the ache and raised Fu Shen alone.
Sooner or later, the outdated man by chance noticed Qiao Chengan within the newspaper and noticed that he had turn out to be the person in energy of Sheng’s household, after which he understood.
Considering of his daughter’s ache and remorse earlier than her demise, the outdated man couldn’t settle for the scenario on the identical time. He died of a sudden sickness. When he died, he nonetheless held the newspaper tightly in his hand.
Fu Shen had simply entered junior highschool at the moment, and instantly misplaced his solely relative. He solely felt that the entire sky was darkish.
His grandfather’s physique has at all times been wholesome, and until he was enormously stimulated, he wouldn’t die instantly.
He fastidiously flipped via the newspaper, till he heard the neighbor exclaim “Isn’t this the Qiao child again then”, he instantly reacted and requested completely.
It turned out that he wasn’t fatherless, reasonably, that particular person wasn’t worthy of being a human being in any respect.
He buried his hatred deep in his coronary heart, and he studied and labored onerous. His solely motivation was: Sooner or later, he would make that scum pay the worth he deserved.
The sound of rain exterior the window progressively stopped, and a beam of sunshine appeared to interrupt via the clouds within the sky.
Lu Ye was unable to talk for a very long time.
Tang Zhou took again his telephone.
“Qiao Chengan has performed a great son-in-law, a great husband and a great father for therefore a few years. Grandpa Sheng has just one daughter, Aunt Sheng. Many of the Sheng household is now in Qiao Chengan’s palms. Do you assume it’s applicable to nonetheless cover it from Qiao Yuan?”
“However Xiao Yuan, he…”
“He’s an grownup.” Tang Zhou’s eyes have been chilly, “If you happen to don’t need the Sheng household to be destroyed in Qiao Chengan’s palms, Qiao Yuan and Aunt Sheng can’t proceed to be stored at midnight.”
Lu Ye’s fists have been clenched and his voice trembled barely.
“Give me some extra time.”
