The dishes ordered by Fu Shiqin, a food enthusiast, were naturally of high quality.
However, as soon as the dishes were served, Fu Shiqin's appetite was severely disrupted.
"Brother, even though I'm used to seeing couples being lovey-dovey, you two are practically an old married couple, can you please be a little quieter during your meal?"
It's been so many years, and his brother still hasn't changed this habit.
My sister-in-law loves to eat fish but doesn't like picking out the bones, while her brother has become incredibly skilled at picking out fish bones over the years.
I almost fed it directly.
"Can't eating shut you up?" Fu Hanzheng asked coldly.
Fu Shiqin surrendered, "Never mind what I said, I'll eat, I'll eat."
After saying that, he buried his head in his rice and dared not utter another word.
"By the way, Fu Xiaoer, what are you planning to give as a wedding gift for our third brother's wedding?" Gu Weiwei asked.
I'm currently having a headache over what gift to give Fu Shiyi and Ding Dongdong for their wedding, and I'd like to ask Fu Shiqin what to give them.
Fu Shiqin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Give me the money."
“You…you’re insulting my brother,” Gu Weiwei said with a smile.
The two older brothers are so unwilling to put in the effort for a gift, they just give money directly and in such a simple and crude way.
“Gifts still cost money, so give him the money and he can buy them himself,” Fu Shiqin said, taking a sip of his drink. “Besides, he’s broke as a beggar right now. He’d be overjoyed to have the money.”
Ding Dongdong's contract termination nearly wiped out his entire fortune.
Moreover, all of his assets were transferred to Ding Dongdong.
Now, Fu Shiyi is the poorest member of his family.
Gu Weiwei nodded upon hearing his words.
"That seems... to make some sense."
Fu Shiyi has recently paid compensation for so many years and transferred all his assets to Ding Dongdong, so he really needs money now.
“So, just pay up, it’ll save everyone trouble,” Fu Shiqin said.
So the three of them reached a consensus: they would give Fu Shiyi money directly when he got married.
"Is Ling Jiao very busy lately?" Gu Weiwei asked.
It seems that she hasn't seen Ling Jiao since the movie's release and promotion ended.
"Because of the high box office of 'Butterfly in the Sea,' she's been incredibly busy lately. I'm lucky if I can see her once a week," Fu Shiqin said, sighing dejectedly.
They both live in the capital, but it's like they're in a long-distance relationship.
"I sympathize with you," Gu Weiwei said sincerely.
However, these two years were a crucial period for Ling Jiao's rise, which led her to give up because of Fu Shiqin.
Clearly, she is not that kind of person.
Ling Jiao certainly loves Fu Shiqin, but she would never give up her career and pursuits just because she loves him.
If Fu Shiqin wants to be with her, he must respect this point; otherwise, it will become the biggest conflict between them.
“That’s how it is. I don’t even dare to propose to you now.” Fu Shiqin sighed dejectedly when he brought up this topic.
She's so busy right now, it's definitely impossible for her to give up her career to get married.
Gu Weiwei considered it for a moment and then made the suggestion.
"Actually, I suggest you wait two years before asking again."
"In two years?" Fu Shiqin put down his chopsticks and said, "In two years, Fu Shiyi's child will be old enough to run errands."
"Anyway, you're going to lose to him now, so what difference does it make if it's sooner or later?" Gu Weiwei asked with a smile.
Fu Shiqin shook his head, "Two years is too long, I can't wait."
He doesn't even want to wait two days, let alone two.
"For Ling Jiao's career to stabilize, she needs to win several prestigious awards within the next two years. That way, whether she gets married or not won't have a significant impact on her career," Gu Weiwei said.
Currently, Ling Jiao is at a crucial stage in her transition from an idol to a more serious actress.
At this point, she needs a few films and major awards that can prove her abilities.
So, these two years will undoubtedly be the busiest time for her.
