In the days that followed, Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue became almost parallel figures. The latter didn't care whether the former went fishing or not, while the former was timid and hesitant, trying to balance in his heart which was more important: 'fishing' or 'wife'.
Now he finally understands why those experienced fishermen divorced their wives.
Women affect the speed of lever pulling.
Logically speaking, the 'wife' is more important, but 'fishing' is also an indispensable part.
Dilemma...
In the living room, Chu Fang glanced at Ms. Zhong. She was wearing a black polka-dot shirt with wide-leg pants, a combination of sweetness and maturity, both gentle and fresh, extremely elegant.
He hadn't touched Zhong Tingyue in the past few days, not even held her hand, and now he was itching to do so.
Today is a day off, and while my sister-in-law was practicing her "Zhong-style Eight Fists" martial arts, she was secretly glancing at the two people in the living room.
My older sister is working on her computer, while my brother-in-law is bored.
"Brother-in-law."
Chu Fang hummed softly, "Mmm."
"The homeroom teacher said they would be coming to visit our home today."
"Hmm?" His voice was strange, his eyes falling on his sister-in-law: "You've caused trouble again?"
"No, it was just a regular home visit."
Go find your sister.
“My sister said that I choose to follow you, and you will be the one to receive me during my home visits.”
Chu Fang looked at Zhong Tingyue: "You've made things easy for yourself, this is your little sister."
Zhong Tingyue tilted her swan-like neck: "Isn't it yours?"
Chu Fang: "..."
Not long after, Zhong Rou's homeroom teacher arrived. She was a young woman, and her sister-in-law quickly invited her into the house and treated her well.
Every time the homeroom teacher saw Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue, he felt that there really was such a perfect love in the world.
The two of them, one young and handsome, the other intellectual and elegant, are a perfect match.
"Hello, Teacher Li," Chu Fang greeted.
"Oh, hello, Brother-in-law Zhong Rou." Class teacher Ms. Li snapped out of her reverie and said softly, "The main reason I'm visiting you today is to talk about Rou Rou's situation at school."
"Rou Rou has a high aptitude for learning, and her grades in the opening exams were among the best, so there's no need to say more." Teacher Li first praised Zhong Rou, then glanced at the student, who showed no nervousness whatsoever about a teacher's home visit, as she was learning military boxing from the television.
He continued, "However, I still hope that you will pay more attention to Rou Rou's studies and put more effort into them. I believe that as long as you put your heart into it, Rou Rou's college entrance examination results will definitely be outstanding."
Zhong Rou has a high aptitude for learning; she can apply what she's learned to other problems after just one glance. However, she's too playful and wants to stretch every second into two for fun.
If Zhong Rou studies harder, her grades will definitely improve dramatically. Teacher Li came to visit her home today hoping that her parents can encourage Zhong Rou to study.
As the homeroom teacher, Ms. Li considered herself a failure, as her encouragement had no effect on Zhong Rou.
Chu Fang understood what the homeroom teacher meant, smiled, and said, "I understand, thank you for your guidance, teacher."
Upon hearing this, Teacher Li was delighted, but she didn't chat for long before preparing to leave to continue her home visits.
Leaving the residential compound, Ms. Li unwrapped the small gift Chu Fang had given her—a lipstick labeled with an expensive brand. She gasped, "Wow... Rich guy!"
After seeing the teacher off, Chu Fang watched his sister-in-law exercise and said, "Rou Rou, your teacher said that you should spend more time studying in the future."
Zhong Rou pouted: "Brother-in-law, studying is so boring."
Chu Fang waved his hand: "Suit yourself."
He always believed that learning is a very private and personal matter, and that no matter how much external influence one has, one cannot force others to learn unless one wants to learn.
Zhong Tingyue finally looked away from the computer and stared at Chu Fang: "Is this how you discipline Zhong Rou?"
"Isn't that right?"
“Not everyone is like you, who played around in high school and then got into a 211 university. You are an exception. Zhong Rou is different. She is playful and needs someone to supervise her.”
"I don't care!" Chu Fang lay on the sofa. "Since you entrusted Zhong Rou to me, this is how I'm going to manage her. If you think it's inappropriate, just keep it to yourself!"
The younger sister-in-law chimed in, "Yes, hold it in!"
Zhong Tingyue, you have a terrible conscience.
Even now, they still want to control this heroine!
I swear I will never obey.
Zhong Tingyue watched the two of them working together, both targeting her. Her eyes remained calm as she headed towards her bedroom.
"Your sister is angry."
"I know."
You have to pay me fifty.
"I offended your sister because of you, so you have to compensate me for my losses."
"No!"
"Should I send it or not?"
"No!"
"I'm handing you over to your sister."
"Brother-in-law, are you even a man? How dare you bow down to my sister?"
Chu Fang groaned as he got up and headed toward Zhong Tingyue's bedroom, thinking to himself, "You're still young, you don't understand. Men bow their heads to words, while women bow their heads to actions."
The bedroom door wasn't locked, so Chu Fang opened it and went in. After entering, he locked the door from the inside, then threw himself onto the bed, resting his head on Zhong Tingyue's beautiful legs. He gazed at her perfect face, which was as white as snow, smooth and warm.
Zhong Tingyue looked down at Chu Fang, while Chu Fang looked up at Zhong Tingyue. The two of them just stared at each other like that.
"Alright, go fishing. Just be careful how many times you go and don't overuse your eyes."
"I'm planning to give up fishing."
"I'm not angry; this was done after careful consideration."
Over the past few days, Zhong Tingyue has come to a realization. Chu Fang has finally found a way to pass the time, and she shouldn't keep stopping him. As long as he goes to the hospital for regular check-ups and pays attention to the number of times he goes fishing, he can avoid going blind.
She decided to respect Chu Fang's choice.
Chu Fang nodded: "I know, but this is after careful consideration."
He turned to the side, his face close to her smooth leg, tracing her leg with his index finger, and said slowly, "I've been thinking about this these past few days. I was so focused on fishing recently, going out early and coming back late every day. I was having a good time and neglected your feelings."
Chu Fang thought about it carefully. He realized that he had neglected Zhong Tingyue because of fishing, but the latter was not angry and still supported him fishing until the doctor said that fishing had the risk of blindness and then she began to stop him from fishing.
In essence, the cold war of the past few days is due to its own reasons.
A famous saying came to mind: "Once you get into fishing, you're in deep trouble; from then on, your wife is just a stranger."
He used to treat it as a joke, but after entering that circle, he realized that the joke was actually true!
With that in mind, he decided to give up fishing.
"real?"
Have I ever lied to you?
Zhong Tingyue recounted: "You lied to me, you lied to me about being a poor college student, you lied to my feelings..."
Chu Fang: "..."
"I'll help you quit fishing!"
"What are the benefits of giving up fishing?"
Why would it benefit me if you quit fishing?
"You should always give me some rewards to motivate me."
"So what do you want to do?"
Chu Fang whispered a few words in Zhong Tingyue's ear, causing the latter to blush and remain so for a long time before finally calming down and giving him a disapproving look.
Seeing this, Chu Fang recalled a famous saying: "The sound of the waves remains the same!"
Two hours later, the two left the room. The sister-in-law tilted her head and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, why did it take you so long to come out? I'm starving."
Chu Fang smiled brightly, while Zhong Tingyue calmly said, "The conflict between your brother-in-law and me has been resolved. You will still be under my care. Go and study."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Rou's eyes widened in disbelief: "Brother-in-law, you... ..."
"Who told you not to give me that fifty yuan?"
"You sold it to me for a mere fifty yuan?!"
"Yes!"
