Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Say goodnight to me.
Chen Yu looked at Xin Ai's face, which was obviously crying, and sighed in his heart. The carefree little boy began to experience the sweetness and pain of love. Xin Ai really grew up. Chen Yu pondered for two seconds, and still persuaded earnestly: "The Qi family is complicated. The old man of the Qi family is rather old-fashioned and conservative. Obviously, he can't accept the heir dating a boy. Qi Chu is not the kind of Buddhist and indifferent character. He is quite ambitious. Judging from his posture, he wants to take control of the Qi family."
"If he talks to you openly, with my help, it won't be a big problem, but he obviously only wants to rely on himself. In this case, he can't talk to a man at this stage. If he really wants to talk, he has to wait until he is in power. That will take a long time. He is only eighteen years old now. A man must be at least thirty to achieve success in his career. Moreover, the Qi family has many descendants, and the competition for the family property is extremely fierce. You may not be able to wait until that day."
After a pause, Chen Yu continued, "Xin Ai, he rejected you. No matter what the reason is, a man rejecting you is enough to show that you are not that important in his heart."
In his previous life, Xin Ai also heard Shen Yu say these words to him, and he actually took them to heart. He was also cold to Qi Chu for a long time, but Qi Chu later took the initiative to make peace with him, and the two restored their friendship. Xin Ai never took the initiative to look for Qi Chu, but he was always there when Qi Chu looked for him.
Xin Ai was quite busy during those two years at university. He had to work in the student union to earn extracurricular points, participate in various painting competitions, study for a double degree, go out with friends, travel around to sketch, and play football...
Xin Ai and Qi Chu remained in a hazy ambiguity until the fire burned everything.
But this was a memory that seemed extremely distant in his previous life. In this life, he only wanted Fu Xize. He also didn't want to hear anyone talking about Qi Chu, as it sounded unlucky.
Xin Ai thought for two seconds and decided to refresh his parents' understanding of him. He couldn't hide the fact that he was pursuing Fu Xize. He thought that the old housekeeper would report it to them directly after he separated from his parents. Xin Ai didn't intend to hide it, so he said directly: "This has been a long time ago."
Shen Yu was puzzled: "What?"
Xin Ai said firmly: "The one I like now is Fu Xize."
Shen Yu was stunned: "..."
Xin En also looked over in surprise: "..."
Never stop until your words stun the world!
Wasn’t he going to book a restaurant to confess to Qi Chu tonight? Why did he change the person at the last minute?
Shen Yu and Xin En looked at each other, feeling rather bewildered. Was it because they were getting older that they couldn't understand the complicated love relationships of today's young people?
Xin Ai ignored her shocked parents and said firmly: "I am pursuing Fu Xize now, and I will be with him."
Xin En's confused head turned with difficulty. Seeing Xin Ai's determined expression, she guessed that Xin Ai had let go of the rejection this time and had changed partners. That's right, three times the limit, is her Xin Ai going to be rejected by Qi Chu for the third time?
In fact, Qi Chu was not a good match for Xin Ai. Over the years, he had been relying on his relationship with Xin Ai to gain a foothold in the Qi family. Only because Xin Ai liked him did Xin En choose to indulge her. Now, everyone knows that Qi Chu rejected Xin Ai, so it is no big deal for Xin Ai to change her partner.
Furthermore, compared to Qi Chu, Fu Xize is more suitable for Xin Ai. Fu Xize's appearance is impeccable and he is the type that Xin En can't help but take a second look at. He and Xin Ai have been in the same school since childhood and have similar educational backgrounds. The Fu family fell into poverty and Fu Xize was even abandoned by his grandmother for a time. Even so, Fu Xize did not fall behind his peers in academics and was admitted to a top university in the college entrance examination. This is enough to show Fu Xize's intelligence, perseverance and excellence.
The Fu family is a simple family with a large population. They have a grandmother but she never gets involved in anything. When Xin Ai really talks to Fu Xize, firstly, there is no need for his parents and relatives to stop him and let him suffer any grievances. Secondly, Xin Ai does not have to go to another family. For Xin En, this is a good thing. He feels that it is a good idea to raise another son. The Xin family is big and prosperous, so it is not stressful to raise another child.
Xin En figured out the relationship and immediately supported him. She smiled and said, "Fu Xize, he's quite good. Your father and I have watched him grow up together. We live next to each other and know each other well. He also worked hard to get into the same university as you, and he looks like you."
When Shen Yu met Xin En and agreed in a second, he was a little confused, but since his wife had expressed her opinion, Shen Yu could only agree. He was just a weak and powerless son-in-law, and everyone in the family listened to his wife. Moreover, Shen Yu was proud in his bones. Wasn't his lifelong struggle just to give his wife the best life and let his son choose the life he wanted?
Shen Yu looked at Xin Ai and said gently, "You are the son of Xin En and me, so you can like whoever you want."
Xin Ai felt a warm current flowing through his heart. He had always had the best parents, who loved and tolerated him very much. Xin Ai smiled heartily: "Thank you, Mom and Dad! I will try to capture Fu Xize as soon as possible and bring him home for you two to see!"
Xin En smiled and said "Okay", then thought of other things: "By the way, you don't seem to be very familiar with Fu Xize. I haven't heard you talk about him before."
Xin Ai said: "Indeed, we had less contact with them before."
Xin En asked again: "Can you catch up with him?"
Xin Ai said in a relaxed tone: "Start chasing her from now on. If you keep chasing her, you will definitely catch her."
Chen Yu thought that this statement sounded arrogant and conceited, but looking at Xin Ai's face, Chen Yu felt that... it would not be difficult for Xin Ai to pursue anyone, and only Qi Chu was blind to refuse.
Xin En nodded in approval: "That makes sense, that's how I chased your dad back then."
Shen Yu glanced at Xin En.
Xin En chuckled and said, "I ate some tender grass during my graduate studies."
Chen Yu pursed his lips and smiled without saying anything. Okay, okay, just think of it as you pursuing me instead of my secret love coming true.
The family of three briefly talked about Xin Ai's relationship problems and other trivial matters. The atmosphere was warm and harmonious. They didn't notice the time passing outside the window. It was Xin En who looked at the time and hurriedly urged: "Oh my God, it's past eleven o'clock, Xin Ai, go take a shower and go to bed, you have classes tomorrow."
Although Xin Ai is an adult, he has just started college and is still treated like a child by his parents. Xin En also urges him to go to bed early and get up early and not stay up late. Xin Ai's heart is warm. He stands up and says goodbye with a faint smile: "Dad, Mom, I'm going upstairs first. You should go to bed early too. You still have to go to work later."
Xin En waved his hand at him and said, "Go ahead."
Xin Ai strode to his bedroom on the second floor. When he reached the stairs, Xin Ai couldn't help but look back.
Because of his depression, he instinctively closed himself off and was cold and apathetic towards the world. It had been a long time since he sat down and chatted with his parents like he did tonight. The content of the chat was never important, what was important was the people around him.
Xin Ai looked back at her parents, who were young and beautiful like a perfect couple, and then went upstairs step by step.
If he could do it all over again, he would do everything he could to keep it all.
When Shen Yu and Xin En saw their son return to his room, they called the old housekeeper Ying Zhen over.
The old housekeeper knew everything. "The young master was sent back tonight by the young master of the Fu family. Outside the courtyard, the young master pulled the young master of the Fu family and said he wanted to pursue him. The young master of the Fu family neither agreed nor refused, and only said that we would talk about it tomorrow. But the young master gave me a hint and said that he would be with the young master of the Fu family in the future."
The old butler's words were exactly the same as what Xin Ai had just said to the other two.
Xin En nodded in understanding, and signaled the old butler to go back and rest early.
Xin En followed Shen Yu in the elevator to the master bedroom on the third floor, and the two chatted in the elevator: “It seems that this kid is serious.”
Shen Yu said calmly: "Xin Ai has been smart and independent since he was young. Since he has stated that he wants to be with Fu Xize, that is indeed what he meant."
Xin En thought of Xin Ai's stubbornness and ego since childhood, and sighed: "That's right, this child looks more deceptive, but in fact, he has a bigger temper than anyone else."
Chen Yu said calmly, "It's just a love affair, let him be, I'm here anyway, if anything goes wrong I'll cover for him."
Xin En murmured in a low voice: "I want to see Fu Xize."
Chen Yu said: "Let's see how we can meet later. We have to check it out."
Xin Ai naturally didn't know that his parents had already started planning how to meet Fu Xize, and he had already returned to his bedroom during his student days.
As the second bedroom of the villa, it has everything you need, including a dressing room, a small study and a bathroom. Because Xin Ai paints, his parents connected another bedroom on the second floor to use as a studio for him when he was very young.
Xin Ai spent his childhood and adolescence here.
This place is really full of memories, and they are beautiful and vivid memories.
Xin Ai smiled, and then went about her daily routine of washing her hair, taking a shower, blow-drying her hair, and taking care of her skin. After finishing, Xin Ai curled up in bed, took out her iPad, and started writing in her diary.
Xin Ai did not have the habit of keeping a diary when he was young. Anyway, the diary turned into a weekly diary, then a monthly diary, and then into a diary again, over and over again, in a casual and casual manner.
Later, he became seriously ill and developed the habit of keeping a diary every day, mainly to observe and record his own behavior and illness.
Now that she is eighteen years old again, without the physical and mental pain and torture brought by burns, disfigurement, depression and delusions, Xin Ai feels a lot lighter, and it is a kind of open-minded state of mind.
He met his childhood friend, reunited with Fu Xize, saw the energetic old housekeeper, and saw his parents who looked much younger... All of this made him excited and happy. He was no longer as pessimistic as before, and he firmly believed that he could change his destiny.
Xin Ai wrote in her diary: "At the age of 18, I have the best of everything, and I will keep it all..."
After finishing writing in her diary, Xin Ai turned off the lights and went to sleep.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for Xin Ai to not be able to sleep at such a young age because he does not get enough sleep, but habit is a powerful thing. In the past eight years, he has been accustomed to sleeping with Fu Xize. Now that there is no one around him, Xin Ai is not used to it.
Xin Ai had no choice but to pull a pillow over and hypnotize herself that this was Fu Xize.
He hugged the pillow, rested his head on it, put his thighs on it, and tried to fall asleep.
But using a pillow as a meal substitute for Fu Xize was too low-end and too cheap. Xin Ai held him for a long time but didn't feel sleepy at all.
I can't sleep.
When Xin Ai was a student, he could fall asleep in seconds. Sometimes he was so sleepy that he could fall asleep while standing. He never thought that he would suffer from insomnia after his rebirth. But later on, he didn't suffer from insomnia very often, as Fu Xize adjusted his work and rest schedule to be very stable.
Xin Ai sighed, resigned herself to her fate and reached for her phone, sending a WeChat message to Fu Xize: "I'm going to sleep."
There was no reply from the other side.
It was past twelve o'clock, so I probably fell asleep and didn't see it.
Fu Xize was a recognized sleeper in the Affiliated High School. When he was in his senior year of high school, Xin Ai even wrote a yearbook for Fu Xize, expressing her impression of him: "It seemed like every time I saw you, it was related to 'sleeping', either you were sleeping, about to sleep, or had just finished sleeping."
Xin Ai sent another tentative message: "If you don't reply after seeing this, you won't be afraid of me calling you to harass you."
The chat interface suddenly started to show "the other party is typing".
snort.
It seems that he saw it but deliberately didn't reply.
After a long time, Fu Xize's message finally came: "?"
Xin Ai was so angry, did I ask you to reply with a question mark? He clicked into the contacts and suddenly remembered that he had not saved Fu Xize's mobile phone number this year. But it didn't matter, he turned on the cheating device, and Xin Ai knew Fu Xize's number by heart. Fu Xize was too lazy to change his number, so it was too troublesome to change it.
The phone beeped as it was connected. It seemed that Fu Xize had never set a ringtone.
As for Fu Xize, he was originally sleeping soundly, and vaguely heard the WeChat notification sound in a half-awake state. May I ask... is he the kind of person who would reply to messages in the middle of the night? Obviously not, he would just pretend not to hear it and sleep soundly, but for some reason, Fu Xize reached out his hand, touched the phone, entered the password to unlock it, the light from the phone screen made him squint, but he was still not awake enough.
When he saw the message the prince sent him late at night, he didn't know how to respond, so he just replied with a question mark.
Then, Xin Ai's number called.
How did the prince have his cell phone number? !
Well, Xu You gave it to him, or maybe he found the yearbook he wrote for him.
Anyway, Fu Xize knew Xin Ai's cell phone number a long time ago, and he distributed yearbooks during graduation season to ensure that his method of getting Xin Ai's number was correct enough.
Fu Xize knew all of Xin Ai's contact information, but he didn't add any of them because he wasn't familiar with her and didn't want to disturb her.
But when the number came in, Fu Xize knew it was Xin Ai.
Fu Xize felt the phone vibrating in his palm. He was completely awake this time. He swiped the phone to answer the call, his voice hoarse in the middle of the night: "Hello..."
Xin Ai's tone was fierce and arrogant: "Say goodnight to me."
Fu Xize was very obedient: "Good night."
Xin Ai replied: "Good night."
Xin Ai said "good night" to Fu Xize, hung up the phone, and sent a message to Fu Xize on WeChat: "Go to bed early."
Fu Xize thought, I was already asleep and you woke me up by sending a message, but the desire to survive got the better of him, so Fu Xize politely replied, "You too, go to bed early."
When Xin Ai heard Fu Xize's "good night", his heart finally settled down. He buried his head in the pillow and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Fu Xize stared at the phone for a while, and when he was sure that Xin Ai would not reply, he turned off the phone and went back to sleep.
In a daze, Fu Xize vaguely realized that when he mentioned Xin Ai in the future, it would no longer be the story of Xin Ai and his friends, but the story of Xin Ai and him.
