Mu Lianshen trembled with his lips and touched his head, "Son, Dad regrets..."

Fu Shaoyu retreated unsteadily, squinting at him, as if trying to see clearly who he was.

He shook his dizzy head with a splitting headache, "I have also been to the battlefield... I was shocked by those people who rushed forward without caring about their lives... I also admired them, but..."

He smiled bitterly, "We need you too... Can you stand on our side this time?"

"Can you...can you please put aside your overall situation and take care of us!"

Perhaps it was because the person in front of him made him feel very safe.

When he was mentally unclear, Fu Shaoyu showed his vulnerability and helplessness.

"I'm too young... I can't protect so many people," he looked at him expectantly, "When I grow up... when I can take care of myself... when I can take care of the family, you can take care of the overall situation... okay?"

Mu Lianshen held his face with trembling hands. He looked at the child in front of him with heartache, "Shao Yu..."

"...Dad is late, I'm sorry,"

As if he didn't hear the answer he wanted, Fu Shaoyu frowned in dissatisfaction: "Can I...?"

"Okay...okay, Daddy will agree to everything you say," even though it was already late.

Hearing the satisfactory answer, he was satisfied. With a smile on his face, he lay quietly on the bed. With someone helping him protect his family, he could have a good rest.

He is so tired!

Taking care of a few drunks, the afternoon passed quickly.

The night was dark, and the night wind blew the trees in the yard, blowing off the remaining leaves.

The lamps hanging under the eaves swayed accordingly.

It was freezing cold outside all night, but the room was hot.

Shen Xingzhou returned to the room, walked to the bed, stripped Fu Xiao naked, and carried him into the bathroom.

Holding her in his arms, he stepped into the bathtub filled with hot water.

Suddenly wrapped in water, she opened her eyes in a panic, looked at Shen Xingzhou blankly, and looked seriously, "Hmm? Brother?"

Shen Xingzhou responded to her softly, "Yeah,"

"Hmm..." Knowing that he was someone she could trust, she relaxed and leaned against him again.

"What are you doing?"

"Take a shower..." He picked up the soap from the side and rubbed it on her body until her whole body was covered. He picked her up and stood under the shower to rinse her clean. After drying her, he carried her to the bed and tucked her into the quilt.

Lying beside her, his hands were teasing her body dishonestly, listening to her humming in his arms.

Chen Xingzhou took back his hand and hugged her tightly, "Sleep..."

He raised his legs and clamped her restless calves.

Fu Xiao, who was already sleepy, didn't have the energy to struggle anymore and fell asleep in the reassuring embrace.

The next day.

The weather in Country M dropped several degrees overnight.

Fu Xiao opened her eyes from the quilt, rubbed the headache caused by the hangover, listened to the sound of the air conditioner, and looked out the window.

The water in the lake formed a thin layer of ice. She frowned and said, "It's getting colder..."

At this time, Shen Xingzhou pushed the door and walked in, “Awake?”

"Well," she stretched out her hand to him, "hug me."

He walked over with a smile, picked her up like a child, and went to the closet to open it, "Take out that thick down jacket."

"And those thick trousers,"

Fu Xiao took out all the clothes and returned to the bed. He helped her put on her sweater and said, "Okay, put on the rest yourself. Put on your clothes and come out to eat."

"What about them?"

Shen Xingzhou returned to the closet again and took out a pair of thick socks. “Second brother hasn’t gotten up yet, but my elder brother is awake, and my father is already eating.”

Fu Xiao took the socks from his hand, put them on, picked up his shoes and went into the bathroom to wash up.

I went downstairs to the living room on the first floor. "Dad,"

Mu Lianshen asked her to sit down, and looking at the breakfast on the table, she looked at Chen Xingzhou, "Is there a cook at home?"

This doesn't seem like something he would do.

“Well,” Shen Xingzhou sat next to her and called to the kitchen on the side of the living room: “Aunt Chen…”

As soon as he finished speaking, an aunt in her forties came out of the kitchen. Shen Xingzhou introduced her, “This is Aunt Chen, who is in charge of the kitchen. Her husband is in charge of cleaning the garden outside.”

Aunt Chen looked kind and gentle, and spoke in a gentle voice. When she saw Fu Shaoyu coming down from upstairs, her eyes became even gentler, "Master Fu..."

Fu Shaoyu smiled and waved her hand, "Aunt Chen, don't be so polite, just call me by my name. I'll trouble you with our family's food in the future."

"What's the trouble?" She likes to cook, and while the couple can still move, they can do something to relieve the pressure on their children.

Aunt Chen went to the kitchen to work again. Fu Xiao pulled Fu Shaoyu's arm and said, "You know him..."

"Well, I know his son,"

"Oh," the acquaintance was pretty good.

Fu Shaoyu smiled and explained to her in a low voice: "His son drives a cargo ship and is away from home for a long time. The old couple are always restless and want to go out to make money. He is afraid that the two will be tired, but he doesn't let them go out. He is also afraid that they will get bored at home. He is very worried... I think Aunt Chen's cooking is delicious, so I asked them to come here to help."

Fu Xiao took a bite of the wonton she made and nodded in agreement, "It's really delicious..."

She smiled and asked him, "Brother, you don't have a headache, do you?"

Fu Shaoyu shook his head.

"By the way, Dad, did you give Mom the medicine last night?" She looked at Mu Lianshen. Acupuncture was optional, but the pills still had to be taken. Yesterday, she was only thinking about accompanying Fu Shaoyu to vent his anger and forgot to remind him.
