Chapter 33: Anger
If you walk on the road at night too much, you will always encounter ghosts.
This sentence doesn't seem appropriate here, but Fu Liangxia inexplicably feels that it fits his current situation strangely.
How can you avoid failure if you want to gain favor?
"elder brother!"
The Fu Haoyao in front of him looked like he was about to fall apart.
Fu Liangxia didn't understand where his anger came from, but her current situation was obviously not optimistic.
Not far ahead was her must-have target, and now she was holding hands with the optional target, and behind them was a potential partner staring at them.
Fu Liangxia told herself to stay calm. It was nothing. Although it looked like she was about to become the sister-in-law of the student she was tutoring, it was just a friendly handshake, a casual affair.
As long as Fu Langshu explains everything clearly afterwards, they can restore their pure partnership.
Of course, now is definitely not the right time.
Fu Liangxia closed the door behind her, blocking out the sight of the man who wanted to watch the show, and quickly let go of the man's hand.
However, because of his extremely fast speed, he seemed a little unusual to others, as if he was found guilty.
The white-blonde boy in the distance stood in the corridor. It seemed that due to his mood, his whole appearance was darker, and his curled hair was drooping.
His gaze remained fixed on the spot where their hands had been locked. He stared at a point in the void, and after a moment, he struggled to find his voice. "What's going on with you guys?"
Because of shock, the voice was a little hoarse.
Fu Haoyao had never even touched a girl's hand since he turned 18. Although he had finally come to understand in the past two years that the rumor about "holding hands can lead to pregnancy" was just a lie, he still believed that holding hands was something only lovers could do.
After all, it was holding hands.
Fu Liangxia didn't respond. She was just helping out anyway, and the other party was originally asking about Fu Langshu.
Fu Langshu dropped the hand that was shaken away by the girl to his side, and the delicate touch of the other person seemed to still linger on his fingertips.
Hearing this, he raised his eyes and looked at Fu Haoyao calmly: "Go back first."
The man looked calm, not at all embarrassed, not at all like he had just been caught by his brother with his tutor and classmate.
If Fu Langshu's fingertips hadn't trembled slightly, Fu Liangxia would have really thought that he was as calm and indifferent as he appeared on the surface.
You’re really good at pretending.
Is this the shamelessness of people in the business world?
Fu Liangxia suddenly felt that she still had room for improvement. She had just seen Fu Haoyao out of the blue, and even though the two of them hadn't done anything, she inexplicably felt like she was caught in an affair.
After hearing Fu Langshu's words, Fu Haoyao stood there without moving. In the end, it was Feng Qian who patted his shoulder and brought him back to his senses.
The boy looked away, lowered his head slightly, turned silently and walked towards the private room.
Behind them, Fu Liangxia and Fu Langshu looked at each other silently.
The other person pulled the corner of his lip slightly, as if praising her, but also as a comfort.
"So, what's going on?" Fu Haoyao bombarded him with questions as soon as they returned to the private room. "When did you two become so familiar with each other? Didn't we just meet for the first time yesterday?"
Fu Haoyao didn't know where the anxiety and anger in his heart came from, but when he saw the two of them holding hands, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
It’s like, it’s clearly a movie about three people, but he, the middleman, has no name.
Very unhappy.
Fu Haoyao frowned, sat on the chair with his feet crossed, and stared at his brother with dissatisfaction.
His brother is already an adult, six years older than them, but he still does such shameless things as an old cow eating young grass.
Fu Liangxia sat down next to him as if nothing had happened and asked him, "What did you order?"
Fu Haoyao handed over the printed form.
Suddenly he remembered that Fu Langshu had not answered him yet, and stared back at him.
After entering the room, Fu Langshu hung the coat on the hanger and then took a leisurely seat at the main seat. Receiving his brother's eager gaze, he smiled and said, "Why are you so excited?"
There is no intention of clarifying at all.
Fu Liangxia: “…”
It's not you who needs to improve your favorability, so there's no need to rush, right?
Fu Liangxia frowned slightly, not understanding what he was up to.
Fu Haoyao snorted coldly: "Whoever is excited, just ask."
However, the fluctuations in favorability prompted by the system were not as calm as his tone. It kept jumping up and down, which was enough to show the mood fluctuations of the person involved.
"Since you're just asking, let's eat first." Fu Langshu glanced at him with a smile and said lightly.
Fu Liangxia felt that Fu Haoyao next to her was completely stunned, like a volcano that was about to erupt but was being held down by someone, and the expression on his face was as colorful as a spilled paint palette.
It turns out that so many emotions can appear on one person's face at the same time.
Fu Liangxia was thinking while watching the fun.
I have learned a lot.
A man who can be called the male protagonist of a novel is indeed extraordinary.
At least in terms of emotional expression, it is very suitable for writing, it is really rich.
She didn't feel the subtle undercurrent in the room, but Feng Qian lowered his head silently, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart.
There was silence in the room for a moment, with only the slight sound of the central air conditioner.
The cold wind blew in from the air-conditioning window, chilling Fu Liangxia's shoulders.
She couldn't help but shiver slightly, and her expression, which was enjoying the show, froze.
Which kind person would turn on the air conditioner in early autumn?
Is the cooling still on?
She cursed in her heart, but saw the door opened at this time, and waiters came in one after another carrying dishes.
The man in the main seat disappeared at some point, and the next moment, he was wearing a loose suit jacket.
There's no tobacco flavor whatsoever, just clean black pepper mixed with sea salt.
A very unique perfume, like the feeling of Fulangshu on people. It looks mild and harmless on the surface, but it is actually spicy on the inside.
Fu Liangxia turned her head and saw the man above her with his dark eyes bent. He curved his lips slightly and said to her, "Put it on first. I'll go get someone to turn off the air conditioner."
Listen to what kind of bossy statement this is. Logically, the central air conditioning in the clubhouse shouldn't be turned on, and there's no reason to adjust it specifically for the guests in a particular room, let alone turn it off directly.
However, as soon as Fu Langshu opened his mouth, he told them to turn it off directly.
He was so gentle, considerate, and attentive that he almost gave her an illusion.
It seems like the two of them are really close.
"Bang--!"
The chair was dragged with a loud noise and then slammed heavily against the wall.
Fu Liangxia was startled and instinctively looked towards the source of the sound, only to see the other person staring at her and Fu Langshu expressionlessly.
“…”
what?
She blinked in confusion, and suddenly a cold wind blew, making her legs, which were not wearing stockings, tremble.
Fu Liangxia couldn't help but sneeze.
The gaze on her paused silently, and then the boy with a cold face turned around, opened the door, and walked away with big strides.
The back figure looks hurried and angry.
He slammed the door so hard that it slammed against the wall and bounced again before slowly coming to rest. The air from the corridor, which was slightly higher than the air inside, blew towards him, and Fu Liangxia felt the coldness on her body suddenly subside by two points, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Then he thought of Fu Haoyao who had just left in a rage, and looked up to ask Fu Langshu, "Should we follow him? He's not driving, and this place is quite remote, so there are hardly any taxis passing by..."
Hearing her words, the man smiled, sat back down, and returned to his cold and distant look: "Don't worry, he will be back soon."
He knew his younger brother Fu Langshu very well. When he saw him with those female companions at the banquet before, Fu Haoyao never frowned and never asked what his relationship with them was.
——Of course, this was also because they didn’t do anything intimate.
However, as a man, Fu Langshu understood the meaning behind his anger today.
With Fu Haoyao's emotional intelligence, he probably hasn't realized that he is already a little attracted to Fu Liangxia.
Otherwise, how could he be so rude as to ask him directly in front of him what their relationship was.
After all, he is young, and he can't help but be moved when he sees a pretty and smart girl.
Fu Langshu chuckled in his heart.
"Xiao Yao took great pains to order these dishes today. Try them and see if they suit your taste." At this moment, Fu Langshu acted like an elder again.
"Okay." Although Fu Liangxia didn't understand why the other party was so calm, he was his brother after all, not his own brother, so he just ignored it.
However, how did Fu Langshu know that Fu Haoyao would come back? Did he guess what the other party had gone out to do?
A flash of doubt flashed through her mind, and the next second, she heard the faint sound of the central air conditioner suddenly stop, and the whooshing cold air stopped.
The central air conditioning was turned off.
Fu Liangxia seemed to know what Fu Haoyao was doing.
She looked up at the air conditioner that had stopped working, and met Fu Langshu's puzzled gaze across from her, receiving an affirmative nod from him.
Fu Liangxia: “…”
She thought he was making such a big fuss to do something rebellious, but in the end, he just turned off the air conditioner?
Fu Liangxia was speechless. She suspected that the arrogant man she met at the beginning of the school year was a fake Fu Haoyao.
The real him is actually a fool who dares to be angry but dares not speak out, and can only punch the air...
Sure enough, after a while, the young man with a murderous look on his face came back again.
He put his hands in his pockets, with a sullen face, and when he saw her he said with great momentum:
"Still cold?"
Fu Liangxia: "...Thank you, I'm not cold anymore."
She spoke softly as if comforting an ignorant kid, and at the end, she curled her lips and smiled.
I think I am very much like a gentle kindergarten teacher.
However, Fu Haoyao stared at her face motionlessly for a moment before suddenly realizing something. He hastily glanced away and sat down eight feet away from her, humphing, "No need to thank me. It's just that you're too weak."
Fu Liangxia was silent.
She doesn't want to either.
However, after saying this, Fu Haoyao seemed to recall the rumor that the girl had taken a six-month leave of absence due to poor health, and he said awkwardly, "But don't be discouraged. It's not completely hopeless. Just exercise more, like running five kilometers every morning..."
