Chapter 527: Courtesy

As a newlywed couple with a strong affection, Fu Shanzhan and Qiao Yunxue are restless almost every night, in a state of excessive indulgence.

Fortunately, the next day was Sunday, and Fu Shanzhan didn't have to go to work or work overtime. The two of them lay in bed until almost noon before getting up.

Yesterday, Fu Shanzhan had informed his aunt that she didn't need to come to work. The two of them got up slowly, washed up, and planned to go out for hot pot.

Qiao Yunxue didn't wear any makeup, just applied some primer, tied her hair into a simple ponytail, wore a sports suit, and carried a cross-body canvas bag.

This is her most comfortable outfit.

Qiao Yunxue stood in front of the shoe cabinet and changed into a pair of canvas shoes. As soon as she put them on, Fu Shanzhan squatted in front of her and happily tied her shoelaces.

This was something he often did before. When Qiao Yunxue saw his skillful movements, sweet scenes from the past flooded into her mind, and she couldn't suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth.

"You only know how to show off." Qiao Yunxue snorted, "I won't thank you. You're the one who caused my back pain."

"Yes, it's all my fault. I was too brave and hit so hard that my baby was broken." Fu Shanzhan tied her shoelaces with a playful smile.

Qiao Yunxue's face turned red and white due to his dirty talk, and she raised her foot to kick him.

Fu Shanzhan dodged quickly, stood up, picked her up and spun her around twice.

"Gogogo, let's go! Take my wife to eat hot pot~"

After being shaken twice suddenly, Qiao Yunxue could hear the sound of her brain churning.

She patted Fu Shanzhan's shoulder, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "You reckless man, stop turning around!"

Fu Shanzhan smiled and said "Yes, sir", but did not let her get off the ground. He just carried her to the passenger seat.

After Qiao Yunxue sat down, Fu Shanzhan tied her belt as usual.

Qiao Yunxue: "Could you please say hello before hugging me next time? Besides, it's not like I can't walk..."

"I'm afraid you'll sit in the back row like you did yesterday." Fu Shanzhan stared at her. "You don't know how sad and heartbroken I was yesterday."

Qiao Yunxue rolled her eyes at his cheesy words and stretched out her hand towards him: "Take it out and let me see it."

Her original intention was to make things difficult for him, but unexpectedly Fu Shanzhan suddenly lowered his head and placed a kiss on her palm.

Qiao Yunxue shuddered and blushed to her ears.

Fu Shanzhan grinned, "You're not mad at me anymore, are you, wife?"

Qiao Yunxue: "Where did you learn these greasy tricks? They're so annoying."

Fu Shanzhan: "Oh, some people keep saying they're so annoying, their ears are red as if they're cooked."

Qiao Yunxue: "...Go drive the car, I'm hungry."

Fu Shanzhan: "Okay, my wife."

…

The hot pot restaurant was chosen by Qiao Yunxue. She likes it the most because it is spicy enough.

Fu Shanzhan can't eat spicy food very well, so the two of them chose a shabu-shabu hotpot, and he was responsible for the clear soup.

The two of them have very different tastes. During their relationship, Fu Shanzhan was the one who compromised. He did a great job in this regard and never complained. In his words, as long as his wife doesn't make him eat shit, he's fine with it.

Fu Shanzhan knows Qiao Yunxue's taste preferences very well. When the two of them go out to eat, Qiao Yunxue doesn't even need to say what she wants to eat. Fu Shanzhan can always accurately order her favorite food.

She likes to eat hot pot with sweet tofu pudding, so Fu Shanzhan ordered it for her as well.

The tofu pudding was ready. After it was served, Qiao Yunxue took a sip and felt a sweet taste in her mouth.

As soon as I put down the spoon, the phone next to me vibrated.

Qiao Yunxue unlocked the phone and saw a WeChat message from Lu Ye.

Lu Ye: [How was your day today?]

Qiao Yunxue: [It's okay.]

Lu Ye: [Have you explained clearly?]

Qiao Yunxue: [He apologized to me and tried to comfort me. His attitude was pretty good.]

Lu Ye: [I'm asking, have you told him what his father said to you?]

Qiao Yunxue: [I said it.]

Lu Ye: [What did he say?]

Qiao Yunxue: [He is definitely on my side.]

"Wife, here's your grapefruit juice." As soon as Qiao Yunxue finished sending the message, Fu Shanzhan took the juice from the waiter's tray and handed it to her.

Qiao Yunxue quickly muted her phone and put it aside, took the juice, and never looked at WeChat again.

——

We had a fight over the weekend and spent the whole day together, and that was it.

No matter how reluctant Fu Shanzhan was, he still had to go to work obediently when Monday came.

Before leaving, Fu Shanzhan mentioned to Qiao Yunxue about bringing her parents to Beicheng, so Qiao Yunxue made a video call to her mother Xu Yan while eating breakfast.

The video was connected quickly, and Xu Yan and Qiao Yanzhou were also having breakfast on the other side.

The two elders glanced at Qiao Yunxue and asked, "Are you alone? Shanzhan is not here?"

"He went to work." said Qiao Yunxue.

Xu Yan: "How's Shanzhan's work going lately?"

Qiao Yunxue: "Well, that's it. I'm not sure either."

Qiao Yanzhou: "What about you?"

Qiao Yunxue: "Me?"

"You're married now, and your honeymoon is over. It's time to make some other plans," Qiao Yanzhou reminded her. "You didn't go to graduate school because you wanted to get married, and now it's hard to find a job with a bachelor's degree. Your mother and I recently discussed it, and we both hope you can take the exam again."

Qiao Yunxue was a bit overwhelmed by what she said. Before she had time to think about this problem, she said, "Okay, I'll ask Fu Shanzhan for his advice."

"This is your business. You don't need to ask for his advice." Qiao Yanzhou said, "Just think it through on your own."

Qiao Yunxue frowned, "But he is my husband, we are married, so he should know about this kind of thing."

Qiao Yanzhou was very disappointed: "If he doesn't want you to study, will you not go?"

Qiao Yunxue thought seriously for a moment and said, "That's not the case."

Qiao Yanzhou: "I think you are quite capable. It's not like you haven't done this before."

The fact that Qiao Yunxue gave up her postgraduate studies in order to marry Fu Shanzhan made Qiao Yanzhou and Xu Yan very angry.

She acted first and asked for permission later.

Qiao Yanzhou and Xu Yan also took their anger out on Fu Shanzhan because of this incident and have always had complaints about him.

But Qiao Yunxue wouldn't let them say that: "I didn't go to graduate school on my own initiative. He didn't push me. Dad, I've explained this to you many times. Don't take it out on him."

Qiao Yanzhou was so angry that his head was about to explode. He hid from the camera and said to Xu Yan, "You talk to her. I'm afraid she'll make me angry." Xu Yan shook her head helplessly and said softly to Qiao Yunxue, "Your father is just feeling sorry for you, not blaming you."

"Let's not talk about the past. Let's think about the future. Although you and Shan Zhan are already married, you are still young. You still need to study and work hard. You can't stop making progress just because you are married." Xu Yan said earnestly, "Before you have children, you should seize the time. After a few years, you won't have the energy to keep up."

"Okay, I'll seriously consider it." Qiao Yunxue also listened and nodded.

Then, she remembered the important matter: "Mom, Dad, my mother-in-law's birthday is in July, and it's less than half a month away. Why don't you come to North City and stay for a while? Shan Zhan and I will take you out for a walk."
