Night, a gentle breeze.

In the Tanhua residential area, the lights cast long shadows of the two people.

Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue looked at each other, lost in thought. After a long while, Chu Fang asked, "What should we do?"

Zhong Tingyue shrugged: "We'll deal with whatever comes our way."

"Go apologize."

Zhong Tingyue tilted her head, a question mark appearing in her mind, and slowly reminded her, "I'm a woman."

"Ladies first."

“... ..."

Can it really be used like this?

6.

"Actually, the main responsibility for what happened tonight is yours." Chu Fang tugged at his clothes. "I said it would be better to sleep at home, but you insisted on asking me to go out and play. I didn't want to, because I was worried about our little sister and whether she would have enough to eat."

"I was thinking that you ate quite a bit when we had the big meal."

"I'm eating it for Zhong Rou."

Zhong Tingyue said, "I paid for this today, so you should be the one apologizing."

"Let's split the bill."

"Too late!"

Zhong Tingyue tossed a strand of her hair aside and headed home.

Returning home, the room was dark and gloomy, with a draft blowing through, stirring my heartstrings.

In an instant, the room lights came on, illuminating the room brightly.

Zhong Rou, dressed in a bear-patterned pajama, stared at them intently, her eyes sharp, her face expressionless, cold as ice, like a chilling winter wind filling the room, her voice icy:

"You're back?"

Zhong Tingyue went to her room, looking completely calm and collected.

Good, good, good, that's great! Couples are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. Zhong Tingyue, you're so despicable! ... Chu Fang despised that woman.

He lay on the sofa, his hand resting on his forehead, and said casually, "Your sister is sick. I'm taking her to the hospital for a checkup."

"Going to a restaurant when you're sick? You must be quite ill."

“... ..."

Zhong Tingyue, please post less on WeChat Moments from now on!

Chu Fang sat up: "Little sister, it's brother-in-law. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I'm fine," Zhong Rou said softly.

You don't look good either...

Chu Fang realized that things had gotten very serious and he couldn't handle it.

Better to die for your fellow Daoist than for this one!

He became slightly more serious and said, "Zhong Rou, this really isn't my fault. Your sister insisted on dragging me to Disneyland and the restaurant. I thought of you and resolutely refused. I said, 'My younger sister is at home; how can I have fun alone?' I despise your behavior, Zhong Tingyue..."

Zhong Rou crossed her arms, smiled without saying a word, and looked like she was fine.

Zhong Tingyue came out wearing looser clothes, her brows slightly furrowed. She said to Chu Fang, "Your legs are your own; I didn't force you to go, and you didn't say that..."

"Zhong Tingyue, shut up!" Chu Fang's voice rose several octaves, echoing in the room. At this moment, he exuded masculine charm. "Right or wrong, I'm going to sever all ties with someone as heartless and ungrateful as you."

Zhong Tingyue said softly, "When we got home, we played rock-paper-scissors. You lost, and you comforted Zhong Rou, but you can't use me as an excuse to comfort her."

"Zhong Tingyue, have you gotten too cocky, or do you think I'm incapable of using a knife?"

"Anyway, don't drag me into this."

"You were indeed at fault today."

"You're not wrong?"

Chu Fang straightened his back: "I did nothing wrong."

Zhong Rou coldly watched their bickering, her voice low and gloomy: "You don't need to put on a show for me. You two are equal in my heart."

From the moment they entered, Chu used tactics such as playing the victim, apologizing, and the two pretending to argue to change the subject, while she simply watched them perform.

The argument between the two sides stopped abruptly, and Chu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth.

This kid is incredibly quick-witted.

Zhong Tingyue went to the bathroom and said, "See? I told you it wouldn't work. Don't worry about her, she'll be fine in a while."

Zhong Rou nodded: "That's right, don't worry about me. I'm just a poor person living in someone else's home. Mom and Dad, I'm doing well, you don't need to worry. Going back home, facing an empty room, the cold wind, not knowing where my next meal will come from..."

As Zhong Rou spoke, her eyes reddened.

Chu Fang remembered that Zhong Rou hadn't eaten yet, so he quickly opened the takeout food and brought it to his sister-in-law, who ate it heartily.

"Are you full? Shall I make you something else?" Chu Fang asked when he saw that they had finished eating.

"I'm not full. I want to stuff myself to death rather than die of starvation."

“... ..."

Chu Fang scratched the back of his head: "Um... little sister, how can you forgive me?"

"I have already forgiven him."

"real?"

"real.

Judging from your expression, it doesn't seem like you've forgiven her.

"I'll compensate you five hundred." Chu Fang gritted his teeth and held up five fingers.

Zhong Rou shook her head.

"Five thousand."

Zhong Rou glanced at him, then went to her room and closed the door.

Oh no!

Even money couldn't buy back their feelings for each other; it seems Zhong Rou has truly lost heart.

"Don't pay attention to her, she'll be fine in a few days." Zhong Tingyue wiped her cascading black hair.

Is she your sister?

Zhong Tingyue rolled her eyes.

... ...

Early in the morning, Zhong Rou ate breakfast and headed straight to school without even glancing at the two of them.

Seeing that his sister-in-law had lost her usual liveliness and cheerfulness, Chu Fang scratched his face: "Is little sister really injured?"

"Injured?" Upon hearing this, Zhong Tingyue chuckled.

After finishing their meal, the two left home. Chu Fang said, "Mr. Zhong, I need to take the day off today."

"No."

I don't care whether you agree or not.

"Then why are you asking me? Are you just asking me random questions to make yourself look polite?" Zhong Tingyue glanced at her sideways.

If you want to leave, then leave. It doesn't matter whether the studio has you or not. Why do you need to ask me? Are you out of your mind?

Chu Fang chuckled, kissed his girlfriend, and then drove away, leaving Zhong Tingyue with a slight smile on her lips, like a blooming flower.

Today, the water is sparkling and the sky is azure.

Chu Fang drove and soon arrived at the Fangzheng Investment Co., Ltd. building.

Kangbo sent him a message, saying he was unsure about a project and didn't know what to do, so he asked Kangbo to take a look and give him some advice. After all, Kangbo was the real boss of the company, while Kangbo was just a professional manager.

After parking his car, Chu Fang headed towards the company. As he entered the elevator, he saw groups of two or three working people.

Then someone nearby said, "Today is the most important moment for our company. If we can win over that CEO Kang, our company will have the funds to continue to survive. If we can't, the company will face bankruptcy, and everyone will leave."

The speaker was a middle-aged man in a suit, whose face looked slightly tense, as if he were about to face a world war.

Immediately, a young voice was heard: "Today we are facing the company's real boss, President Chu. Everyone must keep a calm mindset."
