Chapter 311: I will change it later
After returning to Pingjiang, Su Danian and his wife were overjoyed to see their daughter and son-in-law come back.
"Xiao Li has been in the provincial capital for a long time this time. My parents are missing her so much." Wen Yu rolled his eyes at Su Li. "Old man, he sits at the door every day, all day long."
Liu Guilan laughed and said, "This old man is stubborn and has nothing to do. He told your brother the other day to see if there's any suitable work for him in the factory."
"Mom, my dad is going to retire next year, why are you still asking him to find a job?"
Su Li pouted and held her father's arm with heartache.
"I'm annoyed when he's at home. Besides playing chess with your uncle Gao, he just squats at the door, guarding it diligently."
Fu Jinzhou smiled and said, "Mom, my dad just recovered not long ago, he can't overwork himself."
Su Danian chuckled and said, "Don't listen to your mother's nonsense. Your brother is highly regarded by the factory director. How could I possibly hold him back?"
"You must be tired. Sit down and drink some water. Let's have a couple of drinks with Jinzhou tonight."
"You guys take a break, Mom and I will go make dinner."
"I'll go help."
Just as Su Li was about to stand up, her nephew hugged her thighs and said, "Auntie, play with me."
Su Li hadn't seen the little guy for a long time, and she missed him so much that she took him to play in the yard.
"Jinzhou, have you been doing well recently?"
Su Danian and Fu Jinzhou sat down and drank tea.
"Everything is fine. Take care of yourself and don't worry about us."
"I'm not worried. With you here, my daughter won't be wronged."
He has been worried these days that Fu Jinzhou and Su Li got their marriage certificate directly without their family's consent.
He was afraid that Su Li would be harassed by the Fu family if she went back with him.
"Dad, my grandfather said he would bring my parents for an official visit next week."
Su Danian choked on a mouthful of tea and started coughing violently.
“Ahem…”
Fu Jinzhou came up and patted his back, saying in a deep voice, "I won't let Su Li suffer any injustice, don't worry!"
After a while, Su Danian finally recovered.
"I...I'm relieved. I'm very relieved about you." Su Danian's face was red from coughing. "It's just that asking your grandfather to make such a trip is too much..."
"This is as it should be. Even though Su Li and I have obtained our marriage certificate, we still have to follow the proper etiquette."
Su Li didn't know that although Fu Jinzhou hadn't been home for more than a month, he had called home quite often.
That’s what etiquette is all about!
He couldn't let Su Li have less of what others had.
When Su Mingde came back, Su Danian and Fu Jinzhou had already started drinking.
"Hey, why don't you go to the factory and call me?"
He glanced at his wife and scolded her.
Wen Yu pursed her lips and said, "You've already made the factory your home, what else can I ask you to do?"
"That's what I said." Su Mingde turned around and saw Su Li and Fu Jinzhou. "If I had known you were coming back, why would I have worked overtime?"
Su Li raised her lips and said, "Brother, don't just focus on work and forget about family. Life is not just about work."
"Su Li is right. Brother, you should pay attention to the balance between work and rest."
Su Li turned around and asked, "Do you feel guilty about saying this?"
Fu Jinzhou frowned. He had originally wanted to join in the discussion, but...
"Hyaku, I'll change it later."
The family was originally talking happily about Su Mingde, but they were stunned when they heard Fu Jinzhou say that.
They were a little unresponsive when someone like this, who had always been aloof, reserved and indifferent, suddenly said something like this.
The atmosphere at the dinner table froze for a moment because of Fu Jinzhou's slightly "humble" words, "I will change for the better later."
Su Danian and Wen Yu looked at each other and saw surprise and... satisfaction in each other's eyes.
This man who always looked aloof, noble and distant actually acted like this in front of his daughter.
Wen Yu laughed first, breaking the brief silence.
"Su Mingde, learn from Jinzhou!"
She said this with a hint of sarcasm, but also with joy.
Su Mingde smiled and nodded, "Learn, learn, I will study hard!"
Fu Jinzhou raised his eyes and looked at Su Li, with an indelible tenderness in his eyes.
Su Danian poured him another glass of wine and said, "Come on, Jinzhou, let's have another drink together."
Su Li had a bright smile on her face, with a hint of shyness, but more of a smile of arrogance due to being spoiled.
At this moment, Su Li, in Fu Jinzhou's eyes, was like spring water melting, spreading in his heart bit by bit.
Wen Yu raised her hand to pick up some food for him, "Jinzhou, eat more. You look so thin."
Su Danian agreed, "He has indeed lost weight."
Fu Jinzhou took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "It's better to be thinner, it will make you more energetic."
Su Li looked at him, and there was a hint of heartache in her bright eyes.
"He deserves it. He's busy day and night."
While saying this, she secretly held Fu Jinzhou's hand.
Fu Jinzhou looked at her and then at his family.
This is where Su Li grew up and this is the place where she is closest to.
The Su family is kind and selfless.
No wonder she is so pure and kind at heart. Even after experiencing such betrayal and pain, the light deep in her heart has never been extinguished.
Yuan Lei was nurtured by such pure love.
He was extremely grateful that she belonged to such a family.
The night gradually deepened.
The yard returned to tranquility, with only the rustling of insects and the faint moonlight.
Fu Jinzhou held Su Li in his arms and lay on her single bed.
The room is not big, but it is very clean, with simple floral bed sheets and a desk full of books.
There seemed to be a faint fragrance of a woman lingering in the air.
The small single bed suddenly seemed cramped because two people were squeezed in.
He hugged her from behind, his chin resting lightly on the top of her hair.
His fresh and clean breath completely enveloped her.
"I'm going back tomorrow." Fu Jinzhou's voice was low, with a hint of barely perceptible fatigue and... reluctance.
Su Li hummed, her body slightly stiff.
Parting always comes so quickly.
"Be careful here in Pingjiang."
His arms tightened a little, as if he wanted to embed her into his bones and blood.
"Safety first."
"I know." Su Li leaned in his arms, her voice muffled.
"If anything happens, call me immediately."
Fu Jinzhou's voice sounded in her ears, and his warm breath brushed against her earlobe.
"I've asked Kangping to apply for a telephone at home. Someone should be coming to install it next week."
Su Li felt a warm and yet sad feeling in her heart.
This man always arranges everything for her without making a sound.
The calls are not cheap and there are queues.
She turned around to face him, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, and buried her face in his strong chest.
"knew……"
Her voice was nasal and a little choked.
During the day, she felt that it was all about work, and people couldn't live without work.
She can endure a short separation!
But now, his warm embrace is right within reach, and the sadness of parting is like a tide.
She couldn't bear to do that.
I really can't bear to leave.
She was greedy for this warmth and didn't want to let go.
