Chapter 70

Facts have proven that the cuter Xiao Xu is, the more trouble Shen Tingzhou suffers.

The next day, Shen Tingzhou slept until half past nine. After washing up, he went downstairs with a guilty look on his face. The housekeeper didn't say anything and continued to fiddle with his potted plants.

Only after the housekeeper left the living room and went to the courtyard did Shen Tingzhou let go of the anger he had been holding.

Xu Xun went to the kitchen and brought down the rice that was cooking on the fire, and called Shen Tingzhou to come over to eat.

Seeing how calm he was, Shen Tingzhou was filled with admiration. He was worthy of the long-term "verbal education" from his housekeeper and his ability to withstand pressure was really amazing.

After dinner, Xu Xun wanted to take Shen Tingzhou out for a walk.

"Where are you going?" Shen Tingzhou was a little surprised that Xiao Xu, who had lived in this thousand-year-old house, actually wanted to go out.

Xu Xun put a cashmere scarf around Shen Tingzhou's neck and said, "Let's go to a restaurant..."

Before he could finish, a car drove into the courtyard and Shen Tingzhou looked over.

The car door opened, and Butler Xiao Sang and Fu Huaifei walked out one after another. Xu Xun frowned.

Because of their sudden visit, Shen Tingzhou and Xu Xun's travel plans had to be temporarily put on hold.

-

Fu Huaifei's tea has always been brewed by Sang Yan himself, and he would usually deliver it to Fu Huaifei personally. Today, the atmosphere between the two of them was obviously strange. Sang Yan took the tea and placed the cup on the small round table.

After Sang Yan withdrew his hand and stood up straight, Fu Huaifei picked it up and took a sip.

The two of them never made eye contact, and it seemed like they were still feeling awkward about that unexpected kiss yesterday.

Shen Tingzhou tried hard to ease the atmosphere, but the two people on the opposite side were not in the right mood and the atmosphere was often awkward.

The current situation of these two people reminded Shen Tingzhou of the last time when he and Xu Xun were embarrassed about the issue of top and bottom positions. The housekeeper locked them in the room and asked the two men to talk things out.

Do you want to copy the housekeeper's simple, crude, yet practical method?

Shen Tingzhou's eyes swept over Fu Huaifei and Sang Yan.

Fu Huaifei lowered his head and took another sip of tea. His lips were burned by his absent-mindedness and he hissed in annoyance.

Sang Yan looked nervous and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong, sir?"

Fu Huaifei glanced at Sang Yan, then quickly looked away, shaking his head silently.

Xu Xun suddenly said, "My mother's brooch has lost a diamond. Uncle, can you help me fix it?"

Fu Huaifei, who used to be a jewelry repairman, asked, "Where is it?"

Xu Xun got up and went upstairs to get it.

It was a brooch with a very unique shape. The diamonds inlaid on it were not very big. Xu Xun took it off and handed it to Sang Yan.

Sang Yan seemed to be holding something hot. He swallowed it with his throat, then handed it to Fu Huaifei with his eyes lowered.

Fu Huaifei stretched out his hand, then retracted it, and tried to take it again from a different angle.

But the diamond was too small, and he couldn't get the pink diamond without bumping into Sang Yan.

Sang Yan seemed to be in distress as well. When he put the diamond in his palm, Fu Huaifei spread out his palm. Sang Yan immediately understood and stretched out his hand to put the diamond on it. However, Fu Huaifei on the opposite side withdrew his hand to take the diamond from Sang Yan's palm.

We are two people. You open your palms and wait for me to take it. Then I open my palms and wait for you to put the diamond over.

Sang Yan and Fu Huaifei had been arguing for a long time.

Shen Tingzhou, who was always very patient, was a little anxious. Just when he was about to complete the handover for the two of them, he didn't expect Xu Xunxian to take action.

He held Fu Huaifei's hand, placed it on the back of Sang Yan's hand, and said calmly: "Uncle, you won't get hurt if you touch Butler Sang."

When their hands were put together, Fu Huaifei and Sang Yan both stiffened.

After breaking the delicate stalemate of "no one touching anyone", the atmosphere between the two eased somewhat, but they were still too embarrassed to look at each other.

Sang Yan stuttered slightly as he spoke, "Then I... I'll go get the toolbox for Mr. Master."

Fu Huaifei lowered his head, "Yeah."

Sang Yan took out a toolbox from the trunk, and Fu Huaifei put on a microscope and helped Xu Xun repair the brooch.

Xu Xun said, "Uncle, could you please trim our cat's nails? Your skills are better than those of a pet beauty salon."

It was rare for Xu Xun to praise him, so Fu Huaifei's mouth curled up unconsciously, and he said modestly: "It's not that good, I'm just more careful than others."

Xu Xun nodded in agreement: "This kind of job requires someone as careful as you."

The curve of Fu Huaifei's mouth widened a little.

In the past, Xu Xun was very venomous towards Fu Huaifei, but what happened today...

Shen Tingzhou looked at Xu Xun in surprise, then looked at the sun outside the window, suspecting that the sun was rising from the west today.

Cutting a cat's nails is not something that one person can do, especially since Xu Xun gave the most disobedient orange cat to Fu Huaifei.

Sang Yan held the orange cat in his arms, soothing the cat's emotions while helping Fu Huaifei hold the cat's paws. Fu Huaifei was sitting opposite him.

Seeing the two people working together, Shen Tingzhou suddenly understood Xiao Xu's good intentions.

He gave Xu Xun a look, and the two of them quietly went to the kitchen, leaving the living room to Fu Huaifei and Sang Yan.

Shen Tingzhou lowered his voice and asked, "Are you trying to bring them together?"

Xu Xun did not deny it, but the answer was - no.

Fu Huaifei and Sang Yan came over without saying a word. Needless to say, they must have been chased out by the old lady at home.

As for why they were kicked out, the reason was obvious. They must have been acting weird at home, which annoyed the old lady.

Although Sang Yan had performed artificial respiration on Fu Huaifei twice before, he was only concerned with saving people at the time and did not even think about kissing him.

Fu Huaifei was not conscious at the time, so the two of them ignored the two times they touched lips.

There was something wrong between the two of them since the morning. After watching them being so busy for a while, Mrs. Fu finally became impatient.

"Those who know you two kissed each other, but those who don't know might think one of you is wearing an invisibility cloak. Xiaosang, take your blind Ziwei to the hospital to see an ophthalmologist, and don't come back until she's cured!"

After being bullied by the old lady, Sang Yan had no choice but to bring Fu Huaifei to seek refuge with Xu Xun.

Seeing the claws hidden in the pads, Sang Yan was worried that he would cut Fu Huaifei's hands. "Sir, how about I cut it?"

Fu Huaifei put his scattered long hair behind his shoulders and said sullenly, "It's okay."

Sang Yan moved his mouth, wanting to say something but not knowing how to start. At this time, Fu Huaifei looked up at him.

For some unknown reason, Sang Yan asked softly, "Does your... mouth still hurt?"

Fu Huaifei remained reserved for a few seconds, then quickly opened his lips, allowing Sang Yan to take a look at the small cut in his mouth.

When they kissed yesterday, Fu Huaifei's mouth was broken by his teeth and it is still a little swollen.

Sang Yan felt even more guilty and said hurriedly, "Then I'll go find Doctor Shen to get some medicine."

Fu Huaifei shook his head, "...No need to go, it's not a big deal."

Out of caution, Sang Yan asked, "Sir, can I take another look?"

Fu Huaifei fluttered his eyelashes twice, without saying a word, he just tilted his head slightly.

Sang Yan carefully pushed open Fu Huaifei's lower lip with his thumb and took a close look at the wound. There was a white circle around it and at first glance it looked like a very small ulcer.

Fu Huaifei looked up at Sang Yan, and the moment their eyes met, they looked away.

Sang Yan said, "I have medicine at home. I'll give it to you when we get home."

Fu Huaifei nodded gently, "Yes."

Letting go of Fu Huaifei, Sang Yan whispered, "...I was too careless yesterday. Don't be angry. I will definitely pay attention next time."

"I'm not angry." Fu Huaifei glanced at Sang Yan, a little resentful, "It's you who ignored me."

Sang Yan was stunned. "I didn't ignore you, sir. I just felt... sorry for you."

Fu Huaifei is a person who believes in and looks forward to fairy tale love. Sang Yan knows that she has deprived him of his fantasy of kissing.

Fu Huaifei's eyes flickered and he said awkwardly, "I will never be angry with you, no matter what you do."

Sang Yan stared at Fu Huaifei, his heart moved slightly, and then he slowly smiled.

The strange magnetic field between the two of them finally disappeared, and Shen Tingzhou felt relieved.

The orange cat had slipped away when Sang Yan was checking Fu Huaifei's wound, but Sang Yan ignored it. Seeing Fu Huaifei with his hair loose, he felt that he had failed in his duty.

He has always been the one who takes care of Fu Huaifei's hair, but because of the embarrassing incident yesterday, he didn't do it properly in the morning.

The gentleman loves beauty so much, how could he let the gentleman come out like this?

Sang Yan's life skills were maxed out. He found a handy object in Fu Huaifei's toolbox and used it as a comb to comb Fu Huaifei's hair. Then he took a silk scarf, folded it into a triangle shape, wrapped it around Fu Huaifei's head, and braided his hair.

Watching Sang Yan casually pick up a few ropes, twist them, tie them around Fu Huaifei's hair, and make a beautiful bow, Shen Tingzhou sighed, "Butler Sang has such a skillful hand."

Although Fu Huaifei was wearing a silk scarf and a bow tie, she didn't look feminine at all. Instead, she had a neutral, heroic beauty.

After Sang Yan tied up her hair, she adjusted it again to make the braid fluffy.

Shen Tingzhou sighed again, "What a skillful hand."

Not long after, a wreath and ring were handed over.

Shen Tingzhou was surprised and turned to look at Xu Xun. He smiled when he saw that he had plucked the baby's breath on the dining table to make this ring.

He praised her generously, "You are so skillful. How did you weave it? I can't do it at all."

Xu Xun was satisfied, "If you like, I will write it for you every day."

Shen Tingzhou took it and put it on his hand, "I like it!"

-

After Fu Huaifei reconciled with Sang Yan, he did not stay with them for lunch.

Xu Xun, who finally "drove" them away, drove Shen Tingzhou to a store.

After arriving at the place, Shen Tingzhou realized it was a boutique. Xu Xun took Shen Tingzhou straight to the hat area in the back row.

When Shen Tingzhou saw those cute fluffy hats, he was touched by their cuteness but also felt a pain in his waist for some reason.

Xu Xun asked him, "Which one do you like?"

Shen Tingzhou didn't know how to answer, "All good..."

Xu Xun said directly: "If you like them all, then buy them all."

Shen Tingzhou: ...

At this time, a surprised voice came from outside the store, "Doctor Shen."

Shen Tingzhou looked over and saw that it was Song Qingning.

Xu Xun recognized Song Qingning, but still deliberately asked, "Who is he?"

Shen Tingzhou: The young mother of the second employer and also his junior in high school.
