Fu Jinglin looked at the other person in disbelief. He didn't expect that in this situation, the other person would not only not comfort him, but also pour cold water on him.

Fu Jinglin retorted, "You're so heartless! Didn't you see I'm heartbroken?"

Lin Qiong naturally replied, "I saw it."

Fu Jinglin: "Then why didn't you comfort me?!"

Lin Qiong patted the other person on the shoulder, "I believe you can get through this."

"If you can't even endure the bitterness of love, how will you endure the bitterness of society in the future?"

Fu Jinglin sat in the car, defeated and numb. "You're just as heartless as my uncle."

Lin Qiong lowered her head shyly, "If I marry a chicken, I'll follow the chicken; if I marry a dog, I'll follow the dog."

"..."

He then handed the schoolbag to the other person, saying, "Go to school."

Fu Jinglin was unwilling to face reality, saying, "I don't want to go."

Lin Qiong frowned: "How can this be? How will we survive if we have to endure the northwest wind?"

Fu Jinglin: ...

Finally, Fu Jinglin gritted his teeth, grabbed his schoolbag, and went to school.

When Lin Qiong returned home, Fu Xingyun was sitting in the living room watching the news.

"Xingyun, I'm back."

The man turned his head and glanced at him.

Lin Qiong sat down beside him. "Your nephew broke up with his girlfriend?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Fu Xingyun's face.

Lin Qiong said, "He was treated like an ATM and also like a complete idiot."

"..."

Fu Xingyun didn't show any anger on his face. "Let him suffer a little loss so he can learn his lesson."

The two had barely sat down when their cell phone, which was placed nearby, rang.

Fu Xingyun reached out and took it.

"Hello, are you Fu Jinglin's parent?"

Fu Xingyun frowned. "Yes, what's wrong?"

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded somewhat troubled. "I'm Fu Jinglin's homeroom teacher. Something happened to my child at school, and we need the parents to come over."

"knew."

Seeing that the person had hung up the phone, Lin Qiong moved closer to them, like a curious child, and asked, "What happened?"

Fu Xingyun turned around and met a pair of clear, questioning eyes. He involuntarily leaned back slightly and then said:

"Jinglin got into some trouble at school and I need to go there."

Lin Qiong said, "Okay, then I'll go in your place."

Fu Xingyun looked at him and remained silent for a moment.

Lin Qiong: "You don't believe me?"

Fu Xingyun: "No."

Lin Qiong: "Then why don't you say anything?"

"..."

"Look at you, you're not saying anything."

"..."

Finally, the two drove to the school gate. Fu Xingyun sat in the car and waited while Lin Qiong walked into the school.

As soon as I arrived at the senior high school homeroom teacher's office, I heard a loud commotion inside.

Lin Qiong walked in and immediately spotted Fu Jinglin sitting in the corner.

When Fu Jinglin saw people coming, he shrank back on his bruised face, clearly not wanting anyone to see it.

However, the more Fu Jinglin tried to hide it, the more Lin Qiong would step forward and scrutinize him closely. Then, her tone was calm, without the fury Fu Jinglin had expected, "You were fighting?"

Fu Jinglin pursed his lips and remained silent.

Seeing that the person didn't want to talk about it, Lin Qiong didn't ask any further questions.

One second, two seconds... ten seconds later, Fu Jinglin couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you ask me about the fight?"

"Didn't you say you didn't want to talk about it?"

"If I don't tell you, will you not ask?"

Lin Qiong said "Oh," and then asked, "So, did you win?"

"..."

Fu Jinglin glanced at him, pursed his lips, and said, "We won."

"Just win, that's all that matters."

Fu Jinglin looked up instantly, somewhat surprised, and stared at Lin Qiong.

She asked in disbelief, "Aren't you going to talk about me?"

Lin Qiong: "What did I say to you?"

Fu Jinglin: "Talk about the fight I got into."

Lin Qiong suddenly realized, then her face hardened and her tone became stern, "Just this once."

"..."

"I'll stop here for now. I'm going to talk to your homeroom teacher."

Without paying any more attention to Fu Jinglin, she turned around and went to find the homeroom teacher.

Fu Jinglin sat in the chair, staring at Lin Qiong's back for a long time without coming back to his senses.

Because of the fight, Fu Jinglin was temporarily taken home to reflect on his actions for three days, while the other students received major demerits.

Lin Qiong led Fu Jinglin out of the school, then asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Fu Jinglin: "Why didn't you scold me when I got into a fight?"

Lin Qiong glanced at him and said, "Didn't you get beaten up too? You learned your lesson."

Fu Jinglin's expression improved considerably after hearing this.

Lin Qiong continued, "Although I didn't say anything to you, it doesn't mean that what you did was right."

Fu Jinglin: ?

Lin Qiong: "Fists and strength are not the solution to everything; you have to convince people."

Fu Jinglin asked in confusion, "What if he's still not convinced if I use other methods?"

Lin Qiong: "Then you can use your fists to beat him into submission, provided that you are reasonable, just like this time."

Looking at the big guy standing next to her, Lin Qiong raised her hand and ruffled his head a few times. "When you get home, apologize to your mother properly, and she will forgive you."

"After all, there's no one better than a mother in the world."

After getting into the car, Fu Jinglin saw his uncle and shrank back in fear. Fu Xingyun glanced at him and asked, "How are you?"

Lin Qiong naturally accepted it, "We won!"

"..."

His tone was even full of joy.

Fu Jinglin glanced furtively in his uncle's direction, afraid the man would get angry and yell at him. But instead, he saw the man looking helplessly at the person in the driver's seat, yet a smile played on his lips.

It has a slight curve.

The man then turned his head, and the two met eyes unexpectedly. The man, who had been smiling slightly, instantly turned into a grimace. "Don't let this happen again."

Fu Jinglin: ...

I shouldn't be in the car; I should be under the car.

When Fu Jinglin was dropped off at home, he saw a woman waiting at the door.

The woman was dressed elegantly and had a gentle face. Lin Qiong looked at the woman and then at Fu Xingyun.

Fu Xingyun: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think your sister looks very gentle." Lin Qiong: "She doesn't look like you at all."

"..."

Lin Qiong never expected that Fu Xingyun, that cunning old man, would have such a gentle-looking older sister.

Upon seeing her son return, the woman quickly went up to him, first thanking them for their trouble these past few days, then looking at Fu Jinglin and saying, "Jinglin, while you were gone these past few days, Mom realized her mistakes."

Mom also had her faults.

Looking at this gentle woman, Lin Qiong had no idea why Fu Jinglin was so rebellious and arguing with his mother.

The next moment, the woman continued, "You go in first and kneel down, and Mom will apologize to you."

"..."

Fu Xingyun glanced at him sideways, "Still gentle?"

Lin Qiong's face gradually turned petrified.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together; there's not a single normal person in this family.

After dropping Fu Jinglin off at home, Lin Qiong drove home with Fu Xingyun.

After Fu Xingyun's cold was completely cured, Lin Qiong cooked his favorite meat dishes for dinner.

Looking at the two bowls piled high with rice, Lin Qiong suddenly felt a sense of doubt.

Lin Qiong puffed out her cheeks and said, "Xingyun."

Fu Xingyun glanced at him, "What's wrong?"

Lin Qiong: "You said we eat the same amount, so why do you have abs while I don't?"

Then he reached out and pinched the little bit of fat on his belly.

God is so unfair.

Looking at the wrinkled little face, Fu Xingyun said, "Because I exercise every day."

There is a gym on the second floor. Although he can't move his lower body now, he can still do some dissection exercises for his upper body.

Lin Qiong's face showed betrayal after hearing this, "You've been secretly exercising behind my back."

Fu Xingyun: "No."

Lin Qiong retorted, "Then why have I never seen you exercise?"

Fu Xingyun: "Then you'll have to ask yourself."

Lin Qiong asked in confusion, "Why are you asking me what?"

Fu Xingyun: "Why do I take a nap every day at noon?"

"..."

Lin Qiong suddenly felt a sense of frustration, and then decided to start going for night runs starting tomorrow.

Fu Xingyun: "Why tomorrow?"

Lin Qiong: "Haven't you heard the saying?"

Fu Xingyun spoke up, "What did you say?"

Lin Qiong replied naturally, "I'll start dieting tomorrow."

"..."

The next evening, after dinner, Lin Qiong changed into her workout clothes and went for a night run.

Just before leaving, I looked at the other person and said, "Do you want to go out for a walk? I'll push you."

Fu Xingyun decisively refused, "No need."

After hearing this, Lin Qiong turned and left, but she didn't return until almost 10 p.m.

After finishing processing the documents, Fu Xingyun glanced at the time and frowned.

The other party has been gone for three hours and has not returned.

Fu Xingyun, as if possessed, pushed his wheelchair into the living room, glanced at the pitch-black night outside, and then turned on the TV.

The evening news was being replayed on television.

"Recently, robberies and assaults have been frequent in our city late at night, with multiple incidents occurring as of today. When going out late at night, please try to travel with others and avoid taking shortcuts or side streets. If you encounter a robbery or assault..."

Call the police immediately to protect your safety.

Fu Xingyun: ...

The man watched the news on TV, then picked up the remote and changed the channel, but soon after, he picked up his phone and made a call.

"Buzz--"

Fu Xingyun glanced at the coffee table to the side and saw a cell phone lying on it emitting a buzzing sound.

The man sat in the living room for a while, then took the elevator back to the third floor, but couldn't fall asleep in bed.

I glanced at the time and it was almost 10:30.

When Lin Qiong returned home, she saw Fu Xingyun sitting in the living room watching TV.

Lin Qiong looked at him with a puzzled expression, "Xingyun, why aren't you asleep yet?"

It's almost 11 o'clock now; normally people would be asleep by now.

Fu Xingyun glanced at the person who had returned, remained silent for a moment, and then asked, "Where did you go?"

Lin Qiong's gaze darted away. "A night run?"

Fu Xingyun's gaze sharpened. "Really?"

Lin Qiong instinctively clutched her stomach. "Really."

The man noticed the other person's movements, glanced meaningfully at their face, and then looked at the stomach the person was clutching.

Is there anything you want to tell me?

Lin Qiong was speechless for a moment, then said, "Night running is really tiring, I'm going upstairs to rest first."

As she spoke, she quickly headed upstairs, as if she had some secret she didn't want to share with anyone.

"Lin Qiong," the man said.

Lin Qiong turned around with a stiff expression. "What's wrong?"

There's sauce on your lips.
