She loved Zhou Gangshu's soul, not his appearance.
She liked Li Wuchi's appearance, but she disliked his burly, uncouth manner and his complete lack of refinement in his speech.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Fuyi finally spoke.
"Brother Gangshu, Brother Wuchi, I...I'm already engaged to Brother Guowei, you..."
Go find better people.
Li Fuyi couldn't bring herself to say those words. She shouldn't have; even if she was engaged to Yang Guowei, Zhou Gangshu and Li Wuchi should be waiting for her.
Perhaps one day she will regret it.
"Fuyi, what do you want to call me?"
Yang Guowei was very unhappy with being addressed as "Brother Guowei," as they had just agreed on it.
"National prestige".
He called out the nickname Yang Guowei liked, but Yang felt no joy whatsoever. Instead, he felt a burning rage, as if green light was billowing above his head—a rage he had never felt before.
[Yo yo yo, this isn't the main character, but it seems like it.]
Yang Guowei's airs as a supporting male character are even stronger than Zhou Gangshu's airs as the male lead.
People should learn to cherish what they have. It's good enough that you even have a name in Li Fuyi's name; don't ask for so much.
An engagement can't be permanently sealed.
Given Li Fuyi's indecisive approach, Yang Guowei might be cheated on one day.
Don't ask why, it's all based on experience. That's what they say in comic books, and she knows it all.
Li Laoda: No, daughter, you don't understand.
“Yang Guowei, whether you are despicable or not, I don’t care what tricks you used to get Fuyi engaged to you, but you must remember that Fuyi is a person, a living person, not a puppet you can manipulate.”
If there were light, Zhou Gangshu would be radiant with holy light; didn't you see Li Fuyi's eyes practically sparkling?
The heartache of getting engaged to Yang Guowei to save Li Jiamin is finally understood by someone.
Li Fuyi felt that Zhou Gangshu was the person who understood her best. His ordinary face instantly shed its glitz and glamour, transforming into a completely different image in her mind.
Li Fuyi was certain that she liked the fictional Zhou Gangshu.
"Shut up, you brat, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Li Laosan finally couldn't sit still any longer. Seeing that Yang Guowei was about to explode, he couldn't even hide.
To be honest, in the Northwest, Li Laosan turned a blind eye to the affair between Li Fuyi, Zhou Gangshu, and the other two.
After all, with people admiring them, people would give them gifts. With the help of the three men, their lives were even better than when they were in the production team.
But the situation is different now, and a choice must be made. Yang Guowei has the potential to turn things around, so he naturally leans towards Yang Guowei, regardless of how things are done behind the scenes.
On the surface, Li Fuyi still needs to make a clean break; otherwise, it will only bring trouble to her family, which is absolutely unacceptable.
"Uncle Li San".
Filled with hope, Zhou Gangshu was convinced that Li Laosan would stand by his side.
“Zhou Gangshu, I know you like my Fuyi, but you should know that people have a sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame. Fuyi is already engaged to Guowei, which we have agreed to. You should stop bothering Fuyi.”
The conversation then turned to Li Wuchi, and Li Laosan didn't miss a single one.
"And you, Li Wuchi, don't bother me anymore."
Over the years, Li Laosan believed he had given them opportunities, but to his surprise, not a single one showed any potential.
Zhou Gangshu only knows how to pretend to be a cultured person by holding a book, and he spends all day whining about nothing, writing love letters and poems. How can he possibly have enough to eat?
He hasn't had much formal education, so he might just be making things up.
Li Wuchi was the backup option he had in mind. They were even thinking that if there was really no other way, they would let Li Fuyi get together with him, since it would be helpful for them to fight.
Who knew things would take such a dramatic turn? Yang Guowei's father rose to power, and the once useless boy became a hot commodity. If Yang Guowei hadn't been interested in Li Fuyi, they might not have been able to get close to him.
Having a capable father is enough to make up for all of Yang Guowei's shortcomings. In comparison, Zhou Gangshu and Li Wuchi are completely inadequate.
"Fuyi, make it clear to them that you are going to live a good life with Guowei from now on."
With a hint of ambiguity, Li Laosan said something that implied he hoped Li Fuyi would understand: he was doing it all for Li Fuyi's own good.
"Father, I understand."
Wiping away her tears with a look of grievance, Li Fuyi earnestly uttered the most heartless words.
“Brother Gangshu, Brother Wuchi, I only consider you as my brothers.”
That's it.
"There's a feeling of being speechless," is a phrase Li Fuyi could only express.
[Brother, brother, as long as you call out "brother" quickly enough, you'll never be without a brother.]
What's the difference between two brothers? As long as they understand each other, that's enough.
After waiting for ages without even having a bite to eat, all they got was this one sentence. Many people were disappointed.
Her gaze was intense as she stared at Li Laosan, as if to say, "Brother, your daughter's way of breaking up is quite unique."
Feeling embarrassed by being stared at, Li Laosan turned his head and glared at Li Fuyi.
Can't we use a more normal way of addressing it?
"Li Fuyi".
The cold shout made Li Fuyi feel even more aggrieved.
Why should she sacrifice her own happiness to save Li Jiamin when it was Old Man Li who caused the trouble?
"Zhou Gangshu, Li Wuchi, don't bother me anymore."
As the words fell, tears fell; the main focus was efficiency.
His words were appropriate, but his expression was lacking. Zhou Gangshu and Li Wuchi felt extremely distressed watching him; they could easily see through his act.
Li Fuyi was forced into it, and Li Laosan was the murderer who forced Li Fuyi into it.
Li Laosan acted as if he'd eaten dog shit. During the discussion, Li Fuyi showed no reluctance whatsoever, but now that she was being asked to sever ties, it was like a death sentence.
