After Xu Chunmai fell into a deep sleep, Fu Linchuan tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
What he least wanted to see was his brother's family break apart.
Originally, everyone's family was very harmonious.
Of course, this doesn't mean the two people will definitely end up together. If it's due to other relationship issues, he can understand.
Simply because Zhang Xianglong had found another woman outside.
Fu Linchuan couldn't accept this.
He thought that when he cooked and the two of them drank together that time, he had already made his intentions clear, but he never expected that Zhang Xianglong still couldn't let go of that woman.
What kind of true feelings can a woman have when she interferes in someone else's marriage and when the other person has children?
Fu Linchuan was very eager to see what kind of woman had Zhang Xianglong so infatuated with.
The next day, Xu Chunmai took some apples and meat and went to find Sun Cuie.
When she entered the room, she saw that only Sun Cuie was washing clothes.
"Sister-in-law, where are Weimin and Tingting?"
“Chunmai’s here! Please have a seat.” Sun Cuie stood up and wiped her hands. “The two of them went to Xiangdong’s house to play. I’ll just tidy up the house a bit.”
Xu Chunmai put her things down. "Sister-in-law, I talked to Dachuan last night. He agreed. He also told me to tell you that after you go back to Xuancheng, just go find Wang Chengli. He will talk to Wang Chengli in advance."
Sun Cuie was so happy she cried. She wiped her tears and said, "Thank you, Chunmai, and thank you, Dachuan. I really, really don't know what to say."
Xu Chunmai pulled Sun Cuie's hand, "Sister-in-law, maybe I shouldn't have asked, but I'm still worried about you and Brother Xianglong..."
Sun Cuie felt a tightness in her chest when she saw that her child wasn't home today. She hadn't dared to tell anyone about it for so many days.
Upon hearing Xu Chunmai's question, she couldn't hold back her tears, which welled up and flowed freely.
She told Xu Chunmai everything she had discovered and her thoughts after enduring so many days of hardship.
Xu Chunmai was utterly shocked after hearing this.
She never expected that Zhang Xianglong would find another woman.
Xu Chunmai took a handkerchief and wiped away Sun Cuie's tears.
Sun Cuie choked up, "Chunmai, I really, I hope I'm wrong, but Xianglong won't explain. These past few days, we've barely spoken to each other at home, as if we've suddenly run out of things to say."
Xu Chunmai really didn't know what to say.
She is a woman, and therefore understands women better and feels more compassion for them.
It took Sun Cuie an unknown amount of time before she finally recovered.
She washed her face, but her eyes were still red and swollen.
"Chunmai, don't say these things to Dachuan. Maybe I'm wrong, Xianglong isn't really in any danger. Let him work hard with Dachuan in Kyoto. Xianglong, he's had a tough time too."
Xu Chunmai said, "Okay, sister-in-law, I promise you. Let's not worry about whether this is true or not for now, let's take care of our health first."
Sun Cuie nodded.
"Sister-in-law, if you encounter any other difficulties after you return to the publicity department, please call us promptly." Xu Chunmai didn't know what she could do.
Matters of the heart are truly heartbreaking.
Fu Linchuan did not ask Zhang Xianglong about his extramarital affairs.
These days, he basically just gives Zhang Xianglong more work so he doesn't have time to go looking for other women.
Zhang Xianglong was quite capable; he didn't realize at all that Fu Linchuan had discovered anything.
On the contrary, he felt that he had a lot of work to do and that not having to go home to face Sun Cuie gave him a very relaxing feeling.
He could simply find an excuse to stay at the factory, saying it was for work.
Even if Sun Cuie asked Fu Linchuan, he would definitely say that the factory has been quite busy lately.
Just before the start of the new school term, Sun Cuie and Feng Dongmei had to go back to their publicity work, because the children were about to start school.
That noon, Fu Linchuan specially took Xu Chunmai to make dumplings for him.
There's a saying that you get off the train with dumplings and get off with noodles.
When we ate dumplings at noon, everyone gathered together, and it seemed that nothing had changed; it was still as lively as before.
Fu Linchuan said, "Sisters-in-law, come again when the children are on summer vacation. We can get together then."
Feng Dongmei laughed and said, "Alright, I'm here to cause you trouble."
Sun Cuie simply smiled and nodded, without saying anything more.
“This is not to cause trouble. I brought Xiangdong and Xianglong to Kyoto so that you two would be separated more often. The more you come together, the more at ease I feel.” Fu Linchuan looked at Zhang Xianglong, “Right, Xianglong?”
Zhang Xianglong had just picked up a dumpling when it fell right into the water.
Then he picked it up again and laughed, "Yes, it's good to get together more often. Xiangdong and I think about our wives and children every day too."
After seeing the group off to the train, Fu Linchuan and his companions left the train station.
The three returned to the factory, and Fu Linchuan sent Sun Xiangdong away.
"I've noticed you've been quite cold towards your sister-in-law this time," Fu Linchuan asked directly. "Did you two have a fight?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianglong became very nervous and hurriedly denied it, "No, what conflict could we possibly have? Your sister-in-law, she... she's never been one for many words."
"Really?" Fu Linchuan stared into Zhang Xianglong's eyes. "In my memory, your sister-in-law is a very straightforward person. She always smiles when she talks. She's not someone who doesn't like to talk."
Zhang Xianglong desperately wanted to escape.
He kept thinking about sending Sun Cuie and the others away so he could go find Zhang Min as soon as possible.
"She had a cold a few days ago, so she might not be feeling well."
"A cold?" Fu Linchuan asked. "Did you take him to the hospital?"
Zhang Xianglong shook his head. "No, she said some medicine would be enough, and I thought it was fine, so I didn't go to the hospital."
Fu Linchuan kept staring at Zhang Xianglong, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
After a long while, Fu Linchuan finally shifted his gaze, "Xianglong, if you and your sister-in-law have any difficulties, tell me in time. We've been brothers for so many years, we're all family."
"Don't worry, Da Chuan, we're really fine."
Fu Linchuan smiled and patted Zhang Xianglong on the shoulder, "That's good, that's good."
Seeing that Fu Linchuan didn't say anything more, Zhang Xianglong found an excuse to come out.
Facing Fu Linchuan, he felt immense pressure.
Fu Linchuan narrowed his eyes, then turned around and had someone follow Zhang Xianglong.
To Fu Linchuan's surprise, Zhang Xianglong was in such a hurry.
He had just seen his wife and children off at the train station, and they hadn't even arrived home yet.
After get off work that night, he went to see a movie with another woman.
Knowing that Zhang Xianglong had gone to the movies, Fu Linchuan didn't go home that night either. He went to the cinema to try and bump into Zhang Xianglong.
He wanted to see how he would explain himself this time.
