Chapter 48



Chapter 48

Xu Xun's head lowered a little more. Shen Tingzhou held his breath, and the sound of his heart pounding against his chest was deafening.

The other person's gaze made him feel uncomfortable, and he felt panicky as if the other person could hear his heartbeat.

Shen Tingzhou was eager to get rid of this embarrassment. His blank brain twitched and he did something that he himself couldn't understand -

He raised his head and hit Xu Xun on the head.

Seeing Xu Xun taking a half step back in shock, Shen Tingzhou turned into a screaming chicken.

——Ahhhhh, what on earth is he doing!

——Why did you give Xu Xun a headbutt? Was it because of Zhou Zitan's influence this morning?

——Ahhhhhhh, help!!!

Even if you dug ten Badalings out of the ground, it would not reduce Shen Tingzhou's inner sense of shame.

Xu Xun covered his forehead, looking confused and shocked, "You... hit me?"

Shen Tingzhou wished he could crawl into the crack in the ground.

Zhou Zitan's movements were so smooth at the time that Shen Tingzhou forgot basic physics knowledge and felt a dull pain in his forehead.

But Xu Xun seemed to be in more pain than him. He even felt weaker. He kept staring at Shen Tingzhou with a strong accusatory tone, "You hit me!"

This time it becomes an affirmative sentence.

Shen Tingzhou's heart shuddered, and he hurried forward to rub Xu Xun's forehead.

Regret and shame intertwined in his heart, "I'm sorry."

Xu Xun leaned his head towards Shen Tingzhou, like a scammer lying in front of a luxury car, and said weakly, "I've been in meetings all day, my head is about to explode, and you hit me."

Shen Tingzhou was so ashamed that he didn't know what else to say except a dry "I'm sorry".

Xu Xun turned his head, rested his face on Shen Tingzhou's shoulder, and looked up at Shen Tingzhou.

Shen Tingzhou's cheeks were slightly red, and his eyelashes kept moving up and down. He was no longer as mature as before. He looked like he was about to break, with a look of "someone come save me, someone come save me".

There was a small corner of Xu Xun's lips sunken.

Shen Tingzhou seemed to notice and lowered his gaze to meet Xu Xun's dark, shining eyes.

Xu Xun immediately straightened his lips and continued to accuse, "You hit me!"

Shen Tingzhou felt a little disappointed and looked away a little.

After the panic wore off, human instinct took over and he began to make amends for himself.

"How can this be considered a fight?" Shen Tingzhou said in a low voice, "At most it was just... an accidental bump."

Why does Yu Jurong look like nothing happened to her?

Shen Tingzhou's eyes moved down again and fell on Xu Xun's handsome face. He was a little suspicious whether Xu Xun was too vain.

Shen Tingzhou's meaning was too obvious. Xu Xun's eyes darkened and he pressed hard on Shen Tingzhou's shoulders.

He said fiercely: "I want you to be tired too!"

This revenge seemed a bit childish, Shen Tingzhou couldn't help laughing, and his body was no longer so tense.

Shen Tingzhou asked, "Aren't you tired standing like this?"

Hearing this, Xu Xun raised his head, pulled Shen Tingzhou to sit on the sofa, and then pressed his head heavily on Shen Tingzhou.

After a few minutes, Xu Xun released his strength and closed his eyes.

Shen Tingzhou still felt a little bit awkward. He was rarely so close to others. Even during his most noisy teenage years in high school, no one would throw themselves at him like this.

But Xu Xun just stayed close to him, resting his head on his shoulder, without any other movements, and Shen Tingzhou gradually got used to it.

After more than twenty minutes, Shen Tingzhou thought Xu Xun had fallen asleep, but he suddenly spoke.

He asked, "Are you tired?"

Shen Tingzhou said, "It's OK."

After saying that, Shen Tingzhou felt something was wrong and immediately changed his tone, "A little tired."

Xu Xun opened his eyes and said, "I want you to be tired on both sides."

Shen Tingzhou didn't understand what this meant. Xu Xun stood up and sat on his other side and leaned closer.

Shen Tingzhou: ...

When the housekeeper returned to the living room after applying the fertilizer, he saw Shen Tingzhou holding a cat in his arms with a scar on its neck.

He shook his head and smiled, then turned and went upstairs.

The result of making both of Shen Tingzhou's shoulders tired is that neither side is very tired.

-

When he returned home in the evening, Shen Tingzhou took out two more notes from his pocket.

[On March 7, 2024, at about 4 pm, Shen Tingzhou hit Xu Xun on the head. ]

【But Xu Xun forgave Shen Tingzhou. 】

Shen Tingzhou's eyes were filled with smiles. He sat down at the desk and took a pen to write down -

[On March 7, 2024, at about 8 pm, Shen Tingzhou thanked Xu Xun for his forgiveness. ]

Next to the note, Shen Tingzhou drew a simple cat, then took a photo and sent it to Xu Xun.

Xu Xun replied quickly: [The handwriting is beautiful, but the cat is ugly. ]

Shen Tingzhou: ...

Xu Xun sent another message: [I was just kidding you, cats are also very pretty. ]

Shen Tingzhou smiled and replied: [Go to bed early. ]

Xu Xun: [Drink more hot water. ]

Shen Tingzhou felt that Xu Xun was teasing him, but he had no evidence, so he could only send him a good night message.

Xu Xun: [Drink more hot water. ]

Well, now the evidence is confirmed!

But drinking more hot water is good for the body. Shen Tingzhou poured himself a cup of hot water and took a photo of himself drinking water for Xu Xun.

Xu Xun sent a voice message, Shen Tingzhou opened it and heard the other party say good night in a low voice.

Shen Tingzhou felt inexplicably itchy, and the itchness spread from his ears to his heart.

He was a little uncomfortable with this feeling, so he drank another half cup of hot water and opened the flower district forum.

When Shen Tingzhou saw the first post on the forum, his heart suddenly stopped beating.

[Prosopagnosia is really annoying for the twins. Today, I recognized the wrong boyfriend again and accidentally kissed his brother! Can you weld your glasses to your face, brother? I really have prosopagnosia. I'm not trying to seduce you! ]

Shen Tingzhou inexplicably thought of Su Yu's second uncle and third uncle.

The same twins, the same confession of guilt.

It's obvious from the second post that Qin Shiyao liked it.

[What bad luck! I went on a trip for my fifth wedding anniversary and ended up meeting my partner's lover. His lover was my first love, damn that dog, we even had dinner together at night.]

Shen Tingzhou opened his mouth, and then opened it again.

No, why is life in the Flower District so colorful, almost to the point of being dramatic?

The third post was a mad post—[Ahhhhhh, I'm so pissed off, ahhhhhhhh. 】

Shen Tingzhou didn't think the title was that shocking, so he clicked on the post out of curiosity.

[Damn it, give this old thing some face, you lame and old man, I'm marrying you and you can just be happy about it, but you still think I'm a stupid second-generation with only a face, ah ah ah, I'm so pissed off.]

The Huaqu Forum displays the street for each IP.

Based on the neighborhood shown by the OP and the information revealed, it didn't take long for someone to figure out who he was.

【Oh~ From the 9th District, I know who it is. 】

[At 32 years old, you can't call him old and lame. Although he has a bit of a weird temper, at least he has a pretty face.]

The host immediately responded: [What's the use of having a pretty face, you're still just a piece of trash! ]

【Talking about waste in detail, where is the waste? 】

[This guy is truly a flower district male god, but unfortunately he is sick and can only sit in a wheelchair. ]

[To be honest with you, I loved someone when I was young and ignorant, but it didn't work out.]

The host continued to get mad and angry.

[The more I think about it, the angrier I get. What's wrong with eating, drinking and having fun? I have money and time. What's wrong with eating, drinking and having fun? Who am I bothering? You want to eat, drink and have fun, but can you afford it? ]

[If you don't like me so much, don't marry me! ]

[I'm so pissed off, ahhhhhhh, no, I have to smash his wheelchair, otherwise I won't be able to relieve the hatred in my heart.]

Then the host disappeared.

Other neighborhoods in the Flower District have launched a search for people from District 9—

[District 9, calling District 9, is there anyone breathing? Come out quickly, go to his house and broadcast live!!!]

[Ahhhh, if I can't eat Yu Jingyun's melon, I will be crazier than the OP,]

【Second Uncle Yu was my first generation male idol when I was a kid. If I can't see him lying on the ground, tears in his eyes, pursing his moist lips, being bullied and broken, I will bite everyone in District 9 who is online today! 】

Shen Tingzhou was amazed. It turned out that people there loved to eat melons.

People in the Flower District are even crazier when it comes to eating melons than those in other places. They even go to other people's homes to live broadcast the gossip.

[Uh, the people from District 9 are here, let's go over and take the photo.]

[Report, I have arrived at Uncle Yu's house and am sneaking into his house from the backyard.]

[Hahaha, I'm here too. The administrator won't block us, right? He's his uncle after all.]

[Does anyone dare to knock on Brother Xiaoyu? With him in control, Yu Laoer doesn't dare to block our post.]

Administrator, Brother Xiaoyu...

Shen Tingzhou frowned. Could it be Yu Jurong and Su Yu? Could it be that this Yu Jingyun was Yu Jurong's second uncle?

Soon someone uploaded a video.

Because it was shot with a drone, the lens was a little unstable at first.

The video scene is a study, where a pretty boy with red lips and white teeth, wearing a home hoodie, is angrily pulling a cold-tempered man sitting in a wheelchair.

Although the boy had all his limbs intact, he had never learned any self-defense techniques, and the man quickly tied his arms behind his back.

The man's voice was a little cold, "What are you making a fuss about!"

The boy struggled to get out of the fight, his eyes red with anger, "Why are you pretending to be a gentleman? I'll let you pretend."

As she said this, she sat astride the man's legs, arched her body and kissed him sloppily.

The man's eyes suddenly darkened, and his voice became a little hoarse, "What are you crazy about?"

"Is it okay for me to be flirty? If you have the guts, don't be so tough. You still dare to look down on me." The boy said bitterly: "Yu, I tell you, there are so many people chasing me. I've had enough of this kind of life where I can only suck oranges. I want a divorce!"

As soon as the boy finished speaking, his neck was grabbed.

Next...

There was no next, the web page suddenly pulled.

Looking at the interface that jumped to the forum homepage, Shen Tingzhou:?

When I went back to that section, the post was gone.

【Ahhhhhhh, damn Yu Er, the person who deleted the post has no JJ! I wish you a bumpy career and a rough love life, you bastard.】

When you click on this post, it's full of insults against Yu Jurong.

[God damn it, Yu Jurong, just when I was getting excited, you spit out the post for me. ]

[I knew he would delete the post a long time ago. I hate myself for not being able to call Brother Xiaoyu over. ]

[Everyone, please stop scolding Yu Er. It is not easy to get Parkinson's disease at such a young age. (Smile)]

[I am willing to exchange my twenty suitors for someone who can give Yu Er a headache for the rest of his life. Please.]

Shen Tingzhou didn't expect that Yu Jurong was actually a target of public criticism in the Huaqu forum.

But this is normal. No forum likes administrators who block posts and ban comments, especially when the posts blocked are gossip.

-

After reading Hua Qu's post, Shen Tingzhou felt that his soul had been sublimated, and he floated into the bathroom and took a bath.

As soon as I came out, I received a call from Li Muye.

Shen Tingzhou pressed the answer button, and Li Muye opened with the classic line, "Doctor Shen, I have a friend..."

Now Shen Tingzhou can face this "friend's" story with a smile, "Please tell me."

Li Muye seemed to have walked to a quiet place, and his voice became much clearer. "My friend asked the person he likes to spend the night outside. Doctor Shen, do you think tonight..."

Shen Tingzhou's pupils trembled slightly, and he said decisively: "No!"

Li Muye was confused, "But opportunities are rare. Now there are only two of them. Usually there are four of us... No, it's inconvenient with so many people. If we miss this opportunity, it will be hard to find one in the future."

Shen Tingzhou pressed his brows and said the same thing, "No."

"Okay." Li Muye sighed, then asked unwillingly, "Can't you express your feelings tonight? I've been holding it back for a long time. No, my friend has been holding it back for a long time."

It turned out to be a confession, Shen Tingzhou thought...

Shen Tingzhou felt ashamed that his mind was in the flower area, and he coughed to cover up his embarrassment.

"How do I put this--" Shen Tingzhou said seriously: "Why did your friend bring her out today? Was it just to confess his feelings?"

Li Muye: "No, he's been studying very hard recently, and my...friend wants his sweetheart to relax."

Shen Tingzhou immediately said: "This is the crux of the problem!"

Li Muye didn't understand, "Huh?"

Shen Tingzhou analyzed the situation carefully for him, "Think about it, he is concentrating on his studies now, does he have the time to think about other things? Although you...friends are just expressing feelings, not asking for a response from the other party, but as long as you express it, it will put pressure on him. Do you think it is appropriate at this time?"

Li Muye suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Then what should I... my friend do?"

Shen Tingzhou: "Accompany him to study hard."

Li Muye: "Oh, then I...let my friend take the postgraduate entrance exam as well?"

There were many topics to talk about when studying together, and Li Muye simply thought he was a genius.

Shen Tingzhou encouraged, "Come on, get ashore soon."

Li Muye's confidence surged, "Thank you, Doctor Shen. My friend will definitely work hard."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Tingzhou went to bed in a peaceful mood.

Li Muye sent a message in the middle of the night. Shen Tingzhou took a dazed look at it, and seeing that it was not a big deal, he went back into his furry quilt to continue sleeping.

The next morning, he was brushing his teeth while checking his phone.

Li Muye sent a message at 11 o'clock last night. The content was very confusing. Shen Tingzhou was so sleepy last night that his brain couldn't think at all.

I went through it twice this morning before I finally understood the content of Li Muye's text message.

He still talked about his family affairs in a friendly tone, but occasionally a little flaw would be revealed.

The general content was that Li Jinghang was sick at home alone. Song Qingning was very worried when he found out and wanted to take a taxi home to see him.

Li Muye was afraid that Song Qingning's rest would be delayed, which would affect his study progress the next day, so he said that he would go home to take care of Li Jinghang.

When Li Muye returned home, Li Jinghang was not at home.

Li Muye called him and found out that the other party had gone to the hospital on his own and asked Li Muye to go to bed early.

Everything is normal here.

But Li Muye still had some conscience. He was worried that it would be inconvenient for his brother to stay in the hospital alone, so he prepared to go to the hospital to take care of Li Jinghang.

After making this call, I found out that Li Jinghang did not go to the hospital and was not sick. He tricked Li Muye back and went to find Song Qingning himself.

Li Muye was filled with resentment. He treated Li Jinghang as his own brother, but the other party treated him like an idiot!

Li Muye was so angry that he went to Shen Tingzhou to complain.

Huaqu mainly plays a straight-forward game, and no matter how complicated the relationship is, it is always straightforward. Li Muye's family is like "The Realm of Conscience", and the brainless Li suffers a lot.

Shen Tingzhou sympathized with Li Muye for three seconds, then pretended not to have seen the message and put down his phone.

Today is Wednesday, Shen Tingzhou drove to Su Yu's house.

Su Yu was holding a tablet, and the first thing he asked when he opened the door was, "Dr. Shen, did you visit the forum yesterday?"

Shen Tingzhou looked like a cat with its tail stepped on, his expression frightened.

Su Yu glanced at him and said with a smile, "It looks like you have watched it. Have you watched the video of Uncle Yan? I have the full version here. Do you want to watch it?"

Shen Tingzhou refused three times: No, I don’t need it, I’m not really interested.

Su Yu showed a look of regret, "It was very exciting to shoot."

I don’t want to watch it because I’m afraid it’s too exciting!

Su Yugu asked in confusion: "Because Yu Jurong deleted the post, many people came to ask me for it. Do you really not want to take a look?"

Shen Tingzhou's focus shifted, "Why do I ask you? You are also an administrator of the forum?"

Su Yu pouted, "If I were an administrator, I would not delete this post. The person who filmed the video was afraid that Yu Jurong would cause trouble for him, so he called me to ask for his help."

Shen Tingzhou smiled, "Then you have a great position in this family."

"Because he listens to Ah Yan." Su Yu stroked his chin with one hand, "But he seems to be in love recently. He has not even met the girl Ah Yan introduced to him."

Shen Tingzhou didn't know whether he should be surprised first that they would go on blind dates in Huaqu, or whether Yu Jurong's "partner" was Zhou Zitan.

Su Yu suddenly asked Shen Tingzhou, "Doctor Shen, do you know his partner?"

Shen Tingzhou was not sure what was going on between Zhou Zitan and Yu Jurong, and shook his head.

Su Yu fell into deep thought, "Actually, Darong and Yu Jurong are quite a good match."

Shen Tingzhou was amazed by Su Yu's amazing train of thought. How could these two people be a match?

Su Yu said, "Yu Jurong can be Dajiang's dog, and Dajiang can be Yu Jurong's..."

His last sentence was a little soft, so Shen Tingzhou didn't hear it clearly, "What?"

Su Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing, just some of Yu Jurong's little quirks."

Shen Tingzhou was so nervous by his laughter that he couldn't help but ask Zhou Zi, "What's your hobby?"

Su Yu turned his head away and said sourly, "You really care about him."

Shen Tingzhou: ...

Su Yu snorted, "I'm getting jealous, and I haven't even been jealous of Ah Yan yet."

Shen Tingzhou: "... Let's do the pregnant man exercise."

Su Yu immediately collapsed on the sofa and looked at Shen Tingzhou pitifully, "I was so tired last night, I don't have any strength at all today."

Shen Tingzhou didn't dare to ask Su Yu why he was tired, for fear of hearing some topics that were not suitable for children.

Shen Tingzhou cautiously changed the subject, "Then listen to the prenatal education song for a while."

Su Yu hooked the tassels on the pillow and tilted her head to look at Shen Tingzhou, "Doctor Shen, don't you even ask me why I didn't get enough rest?"

Shen Tingzhou turned a deaf ear and fiddled with his cell phone.

"Doctor Shen has been so cold to me recently. I know you're tired of it." Su Yu held her pregnant belly dejectedly. "That's right. How can I give you freshness when I'm like this?"

Shen Tingzhou plays prenatal education songs.

Su Yu was heartbroken and cried, "I know you came here only because of this child, for responsibility."

Shen Tingzhou turned up the music volume.

With such soothing music, Su Yu was able to perform the taste of love and hatred, "Your heart is no longer with me, Daxiang and Yu Jurong are the ones you really like, right?"

puff--

Shen Tingzhou smiled, "...How about I sing a prenatal education song for you myself?"

Su Yu immediately closed his mouth and waited obediently for Shen Tingzhou to sing.

-

After returning home in the evening, Shen Tingzhou unexpectedly received a greeting text message from housekeeper Xiao Sang.

The Fu family moved abroad a long time ago, but they would come back every year to celebrate the New Year. This year is no exception. They will be back in two days, and Sang Yan wants to make an appointment with Shen Tingzhou.

Shen Tingzhou was worried that he wanted to match him up with Fu Huaifei again, so he asked cautiously, "Is it just the two of them?"

Sang Yan was stunned: [Doctor Shen, why don’t you come with Mr. Xu? ]

He seemed to think this message was inappropriate, and soon sent another one: [I've always wanted to invite you to dinner. Of course, it's no problem to arrange it privately, but I just got home and have a lot of things to do. Can we arrange it for a week later? ]

Looking at this long paragraph, Shen Tingzhou could even imagine his tone, and replied with a smile: [All is fine.]

The next day when Shen Tingzhou went to Xu Xun's house, Xu Xun also mentioned this incident.

The butler at the side suddenly interrupted, "Oh, Sang Qing is coming back too."

Sensing the subtlety of his tone, Shen Tingzhou asked, "Who is Sang Qing?"

The butler didn't even raise his head. "He is not worth mentioning."

Xu Xun whispered into Shen Tingzhou's ear, "Sang Yan's father is his lifelong enemy."

The housekeeper seemed to be disdainful of the term "lifelong enemy" and cut off a few unnecessary branches and leaves.

Shen Tingzhou's eyes flashed, and he roared.

It turns out that the butler has an opponent. Is this considered a competition in the world of black butlers?

Xu Xun looked at Shen Tingzhou, "Are you going?"

Shen Tingzhou was stunned for a moment, "Well... your family is reuniting, it would be inappropriate for me to go."

Xu Xun said, "It might be exciting to watch."

Shen Tingzhou was slightly moved. He really wanted to meet the butler's lifelong enemy, Sang Yan's father, Sang Qing.

There was still some hesitation in his mouth, "I still don't think it's very good."

Xu Xun just said "Oh" and didn't say anything more.

Shen Tingzhou looked at him once, then looked at him again, then picked up the orange cat at his feet and stroked it absentmindedly.

Xu Xun beside him couldn't help laughing.

Shen Tingzhou immediately realized that he was teasing him, and embarrassedly buried his head in petting the cat.

Xu Xun held Shen Tingzhou's hand and said, "Stop stroking it. You're pulling all its hair off."

How could he...

Xu Xun tapped the back of Shen Tingzhou's hand with his fingers and asked again, "Are you going?"

Shen Tingzhou curled his fingers and whispered, "Butler Xiao Sang asked me to meet him, so I'll go see him and Mr. Fu. I miss them a lot."

Of course, I also went to see the butler's lifelong enemy.

Upon hearing this, Xu Xun turned away, turned his back to Shen Tingzhou and said nothing.

Shen Tingzhou looked up at the back of Xu Xun's head, not understanding what was wrong with him.

At this time, Shen Tingzhou's cell phone rang. It was Fu Huaifei calling.

Shen Tingzhou was startled and subconsciously glanced at Xu Xun. He didn't know when the other party turned around and stared at Shen Tingzhou's mobile phone with a frown.
