Yu Wenhao hurriedly looked away.
He turned his body to the other side.
It's hard to forget someone you've truly loved, so even a small gesture like just looking into each other's eyes can make your heart race.
Shen Xingzhi immediately looked away.
Sweet memories flashed through her mind; with Yu Wenhao by her side, she could indeed be a "useless" person in life.
Yu Wenhao then looked away: "Xingzhi, ask Ye Jianming where the raw rubber tape is, just wrap it around him."
"Oh." Shen Xingzhi left the flashlight behind, stood up, took a step, and forgot what she was doing.
"What do you want me to do?" she asked, touching her head.
"Get the raw rubber tape," Yu Wenhao repeated.
The woman ran out of the classroom in a panic. Standing outside the door, she took a deep breath and despised her own pathetic state.
As Ye Jianming passed by on his way to get beef rolls from the warehouse, he asked, "Shen Xingzhi, what are you doing standing here?"
"I need to get some raw rubber tape from you," Shen Xingzhi said, feigning nonchalance.
Back in the classroom, the woman handed the things she had retrieved to Yu Wenhao, who quickly reconnected the water pipe.
Shen Xingzhi noticed that a patch of his clothes was wet, so she found a hairdryer to dry it for him.
"Oh, you're quite concerned about people, aren't you?" Ye Jianming said with a mischievous grin.
"Is the food ready? What are you running around for? We're starving." Shen Xingzhi changed the subject to cover up her true feelings.
"Alright, see if you're done with your work. I'm calling you to eat. We'll make Baihe's portion when she gets here." Ye Jianming stepped forward and put his arm around Yu Wenhao's shoulder. "Brother, be brave."
Shen Xingzhi understood what Ye Jianming meant, but she didn't know how to face him, so she excused herself to go to the bathroom.
With only two men left in the classroom, Ye Jianming began to persuade Yu Wenhao without any hesitation.
Do you still like her?
"Hmm." Yu Wenhao nervously rubbed his hands together.
"Not considering getting back together? Shen Xingzhi is currently single, and it's obvious she cares about you. A man should take the initiative." Ye Jianming looked like he knew everything.
“I’m afraid that if I bring up getting back together, it will put her in a difficult position. I can’t give her happiness in my current state; I have nothing.” Yu Wenhao had the words on the tip of his tongue several times, but he couldn’t say them.
Ye Jianming nodded: "I understand. I can try to sound you out first if I get the chance."
"Okay, go out."
During dinner, Rongyan sent a video call invitation.
Ye Jianming answered immediately, pointing the camera at himself: "Rong Yan, I'm the hero today. The classroom is almost decorated, the desks and chairs are all in place, and I even cooked for everyone."
The man first claimed credit, then turned the camera to Shen Xingzhi and the others: "Now, please welcome our two bosses to speak."
Shen Xingzhi looked up and saw Rong Yan leisurely brewing tea, with beautiful flowers behind her. She said, "Rong Yan, I can't stand seeing you so idle. I'm jealous."
"Why don't you come over?" Rong Yan popped a red date into her mouth. "There's a room available."
"No need, no need, I'm a workaholic. The clinic won't function without me, and I can't manage Ye Jianming's place either. You know, Ye Jianming almost turned the wall into a sieve today." Shen Xingzhi began to tell the embarrassing story of Ye Jianming making the photo wall.
Ye Jianming quickly turned the camera towards himself, interrupting Shen Xingzhi: "Don't listen to her nonsense. Come back and check on my work. I guarantee you'll be satisfied. I'm hanging up now, I'm going to eat." The man hung up the video call; he couldn't ruin his image in front of Rong Yan.
"Shen Xingzhi, don't expose my shortcomings, or I won't cook for you next time." Ye Jianming was about to take the beef rice bowl in front of Shen Xingzhi back.
The woman quickly covered herself with her hands, saying, "I won't say it, I won't say it. Can I praise you so you can eat more next time?" she asked softly.
"That depends on how you praise me. If you praise me to my heart, there will definitely be a reward," Ye Jianming replied. "I'm currently researching new products and happen to need a taster."
Just as Shen Xingzhi was about to sign up for the tasting, Yu Wenhao raised his hand first: "I can come every day."
"I...can do that too." The woman, who was a step too late, lacked confidence.
“Okay, you two come.” Ye Jianming said with ulterior motives.
Southernmost point.
After hanging up the video call, Rong Yan started chatting with Fu Jingsheng.
After coming out, I did feel much better, but I had many more worries.
I'm worried about the clinic, worried about the coffee shop, worried about Shen Xingzhi and Yu Wenhao...
But seeing them having a happy meal together just now, Rong Yan felt like she was being tortured.
She took a screenshot: "Fu Jingsheng, look at Shen Xingzhi and Yu Wenhao. They're sitting together. You can tell from their seating arrangement that there's something going on between them."
Fu Jingsheng crossed his legs and said, "If you ask me, let's not get involved in their affairs. Rong Yan, I want to go back the day after tomorrow. I'm worried about the factory. He Wei is in charge now, and I have to make a lot of decisions. It's hard to explain things clearly even if we keep talking on the phone."
“Sure, I’ll go back the day after tomorrow. Anyway, things have calmed down now.” Rong Yan, like Fu Jingsheng, couldn’t stay idle; she felt uneasy when she wasn’t doing anything.
"Dad, are we going back the day after tomorrow?" the child asked after returning from swimming.
Rong Yan asked her daughter to sit next to her and said earnestly, "Xiaoyu, your father and I have a lot of work to do. We are also worried about Grandma taking care of you alone, so we have to go back together."
“But we just made new friends and promised to swim together for the next few days. I also need to teach them butterfly stroke. They can only walk after they learn it. How can I teach them in one day?” Rong Shiyu said, puffing out her cheeks.
Rong Yan told the child that she would help explain next time they went swimming.
The four children had no choice but to agree.
They fussed to sleep with their mother at night.
Fu Jingsheng was moved to another room.
The man sat on the sofa, looking sullen. Han Yue brought him some fruit: "Son, have some jackfruit, freshly peeled."
Fu Jingsheng absentmindedly picked up a piece of fruit: "Okay, Mom, you go and rest. I'll just space out for a bit."
Han Yue patted her son on the shoulder: "You're such a grown man, yet you're still acting like a child, fighting over girls. It's rare for Xiaoyun and the others to bother their mother, so please be understanding."
Fu Jingsheng reluctantly gave an "oh".
"You can join us and sleep on the floor," Han Yue suggested.
"Mom, it has to be you." Fu Jingsheng's eyes lit up immediately.
He rolled up the blankets and pillows from the bed and went to his wife's side.
Fu Yunlei and the others immediately understood their father's intention. The children went over and said, "Dad, are you going to sleep on the floor? That's great! Play games with us!"
Fu Jingsheng: ...
The children kept the man entertained for two hours, while Rong Yan sat on the edge of the bed watching with a smile.
——
Fu Jingchen's company.
Zhou Luo accompanied Fu Jingchen to work overtime, while the woman sat next to him eating sunflower seeds.
The mobile phone monitoring system sounded an alarm, and a suspicious person appeared at Zhou Luo's doorstep.
The woman checked her phone and, as expected, Rong Bing knocked on the door first. When no one answered, she pressed her face against the peephole and looked through it. Finally, she pounded on the door with her fist, but still no one opened it. She paced back and forth in the hallway, occasionally calling out, "Zhou Luo, come out here. You have the guts to steal your best friend's man, but not the guts to open the door."
The neighbor next door peeked out.
