In Chu Fang's mind, Zhong Tingyue had always been the kind of person who treated strangers with a cold and indifferent attitude, and was even too lazy to say a word to others. Arguing with others would only lower her status.
But tonight really opened his eyes.
A person is complex and multifaceted, possessing both a cold side and the fanaticism of a shrew.
Chu Fang doubted that he could even out-argue the other party, who had a whole repertoire of clever and witty remarks.
"Never seen her before, have you?" Zhong Tingyue pursed her lips, a faint smile curving her lips. "You're just too inexperienced. You don't think Zhong Rou's personality is just innate, do you?"
So Zhong Rou's chivalrous style was formed under your influence? ... Chu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth.
No wonder Zhong Rou is terrified of Zhong Tingyue.
There's a reason for that!
As they spoke, Zhong Tingyue curled up on the sofa, resting her head on Chu Fang's lap, while the latter massaged her temples. Zhong Tingyue gazed at the night sky and said, "Nana needs to find a boyfriend."
“It’s difficult,” Chu Fang said. “She’s too arrogant.”
Actually, no.
Before Chu Fang could ask, she said softly, "Nana isn't arrogant, she's just deeply hurt."
"She once had a deeply unforgettable love affair. The two had a very deep relationship. Nana gave everything for that man. Even when he was unemployed, Nana supported him. But in the end, he still cheated on her."
"After finding out about the affair, Nana forgave him. But once is never enough. The man cheated on her many times, and she forgave him again. In the end, the man got involved with a rich man and left Nana completely. Nana even begged him not to leave, but he eventually left."
"Since then, Nana has completely frozen herself off, isolating herself from the outside world and showing no kindness to any man..."
Chu Fang was somewhat surprised.
Unexpectedly, Yang Meina's story was so tortuous, unforgettable, and even caused her such terrible harm.
No wonder she was able to resist Chu Fang's temptation of several million; it wasn't because of the amount of money, but because of the emotional trauma she had suffered.
As expected... everyone who has managed to settle down in Shanghai has their own story.
Before they knew it, the two had been chatting until late into the night. Chu Fang yawned and said, "I'm going to sleep."
"Give me a kiss." Zhong Tingyue's head remained on his lap, her lips slightly pouting.
"No, you've been acting like a shrew tonight, it's disgusting." Chu Fang turned his head away and resolutely refused.
Why should you kiss me just because you say so?
I'm a handsome guy too, don't you feel embarrassed?
Zhong Tingyue wrapped her arms around his neck and forced him to lower his head, her lips brushing against his full lips like a dragonfly skimming the water.
"Pah! You scoundrel!" Chu Fang cursed as soon as they separated, as if his chastity had been defiled.
After speaking, Zhong Tingyue stretched her neck again and separated them once more.
"Scumbag!"
And so it goes again.
"You bastard!" After saying that, Chu Fang didn't receive the treatment he had just received. He paused for a moment, then lowered his head. "Why aren't you kissing me anymore?"
"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Zhong Tingyue sat up, her pretty face filled with contempt.
"Then I don't care anymore." After saying that, Chu Fang hugged his girlfriend tightly and leaned in. "Everything in this world has its give and take. You can't kiss me and I can't kiss you back."
After kissing for a few seconds, I suddenly noticed strange looks.
Zhong Rou, dressed in her pajamas, stood in front of the door. When she saw their gazes, she waved her hand and said, "You two continue, don't mind me, just pretend I'm not there."
Since arriving in Shanghai, Zhong Rou has seen a lot and is now particularly calm and at ease.
He went to the bathroom naturally, then closed the door and went to sleep. But with the door closed, his head peeked out from the crack: "But... I still have to be careful about what I do. I'm just a kid, it's not good, right?"
After saying that, he closed the door with a grin.
It hurts, it hurts so much, my heart aches so much.
Chu Fang really wanted to send Zhong Rou to a boarding school. Away from them, Zhong Rou would definitely have a wide range of possibilities and ample room to develop, while they would also have their own private space.
He deeply regretted his decision back then.
"It's all your fault." Zhong Tingyue straightened her clothes, her voice soft and gentle.
"You provoked me first."
"Then why did you retaliate? Couldn't you have gone easy on me?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Fang pondered for a moment and said, "That makes sense. If a dog bites me, I can't bite the dog back, right?"
“... ..."
Early in the morning, Chu Fang opened his eyes, drew back the curtains, and sunlight streamed in, bathing the entire room in golden light.
Chu Fang's mood instantly brightened.
Heaven knows how devastating the scorching sun of Shanghai can be for a native of Chengdu who is already used to gloomy weather.
As he stepped out of the room, he saw Zhong Rou packing her books. Upon seeing him, she said, "Brother-in-law, you overslept today."
He took out a banknote and handed it to his sister-in-law: "Go out and buy your own breakfast."
My sister-in-law, her face beaming with smiles, left home with her schoolbag on her back.
Chu Fang stared blankly outside for a moment, then went into the kitchen to cook.
I made vegetable and egg pancakes and a spicy soup, a specialty of Central China.
The dough was kneaded last night and left to rise overnight.
This was his first time making hot and sour soup, and he followed the recipe carefully.
It has to be said that this dish is quite time-consuming. Even if you exclude the steps of kneading, proofing, and stretching the gluten, it is still very time-consuming.
Prepare various ingredients, such as soybeans, peanuts, kelp strips, tofu, and cabbage. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, add the gluten, then add all the other ingredients and stir. Pour in the broth and cook until it becomes thick.
Just as it was finished, Yang Meina's voice was heard: "Wow, it tastes good."
Chu Fang glanced back at the other person, who was leaning against the door with his arms crossed, wearing Zhong Tingyue's pajamas, looking quite lazy.
"Want to try some?"
"Forget it, if I steal food from the stove, I'll have to marry someone from far away. I don't want to marry someone from far away." Yang Meina waved her hand, hesitated for a moment, and said, "How about I just have a bite?"
After taking a bite, he gave a thumbs up and said, "You're definitely cut out to be a great chef."
"Why do you always cook instead of living a perfectly good, wealthy life?"
Chu Fang also tasted a sip of the spicy soup. It was fresh, fragrant, and slightly spicy, with a thick broth. He nodded and then said slowly, "Cooking is quite interesting. It's a form of entertainment that can help you relax."
"A natural-born physique of a bull or horse!" Yang Meina said, "yet you're also a natural-born rich person. How come the elements in your body are so complex? With all this spending, will you ever be able to spend all your money?"
Chu Fang replied, "I could spend ten million a day and still not finish it."
“... ..."
These words choked Yang Meina, and it took her a while to recover: "It's numb. How can the difference between people be so big? I have the urge to die."
"How about you share some of your money with me? I don't need much, ten thousand a day is enough."
"no!"
"Why?"
"Your ambitions are too small; we can't get along with you."
“... ..."
