Chapter 26 Mid-Autumn Night【VIP】
Fu Shengyan finally came in.
When Ms. Yun came home from get off work, she saw him sitting at the door in a daze. Without asking any questions, she invited him home for dinner.
Mr. Lin pretended that he didn't know that his two children were quarreling and hid in the study early.
The silence between the two lasted from dinner to the next day. Every time Fu Shengyan was about to open his mouth, Lin Zhihua turned and left. He also shut his mouth awkwardly and stopped embarrassing himself.
Ms. Yun later called her daughter L aside and said sternly, "How can the other person always give in first during a disagreement? If you want a relationship to last, mutual understanding and accommodation are fundamental."
"Mom, we didn't!" Lin Zhihua said indignantly, "Besides, who wants to stay with him for a long time?"
"Come on, how could your mother not know what's going on between you two? If he really fell in love with someone else, you would cry and faint." Ms. Yun rolled her eyes and pointed out bluntly.
Lin Zhihua lowered her eyes and said nothing more.
Facing her silence, Yun Yueyao sighed, "Not everything needs to be argued about who is right or wrong."
Lin Zhihua turned her head away and didn't say that she was just angry at this stupid guy. She just stood there stubbornly.
Seeing this, Yun Yueyao didn't say anything else, waved her hand and asked someone to leave first.
As soon as I opened the door, I suddenly saw Fu Shengyan who was eavesdropping outside the room and couldn't hide away.
"I'm here to invite you to dinner." He pretended to be calm, but there was still a trace of embarrassment in his eyes as if he had been caught.
She snorted coldly and went downstairs with a wooden face.
Yun Yueyao patted his shoulder gently, without mentioning what had just happened. She simply said, "Let's go, let's eat first."
Fu Shengyan couldn't help but glance at her. When he saw Lin Zhihua walking away, he asked softly, "Aunt Yun, is what you just said true?"
Yun Yueyao was stunned for a moment before she realized what he meant. She felt a little helpless and a little amused.
Why are these two kids so awkward, each one more awkward than the other? They're both like saw-mouthed gourds, unwilling to speak openly.
"I can't tell you whether it's true or not. You have to ask the person involved." Yun Yueyao didn't say it directly, but threw the question back to Fu Shengyan.
That afternoon, Lin Zhihua packed up her things and prepared to go check out Zhen Feiwen's newly rented office space.
As soon as she stepped out of the house, she turned around and saw a little tail following her.
"I'll take you there." He raised the car keys in his hand, pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, and slowed down his tone to make his tone seem less stiff.
"No need." Lin Zhihua said coldly. She walked towards the intersection without looking back. "I'll take a taxi myself."
The person behind her didn't follow her instructions, and she couldn't help feeling annoyed. However, she couldn't ask him to send her off. She could only walk forward with her head down, cursing him in her heart.
"Beep beep."
Not long after, a horn sounded behind her. Professor Lin's black Audi stopped next to her, and the window slowly rolled down. The person who had just been muttering in his heart sat in the driver's seat and nodded at her.
"Get in the car."
Lin Zhihua pressed down the corners of her lips, her anger instantly subsiding. She honestly opened the passenger door, but her mouth remained stiff for the time being, "I thought it was Dad who came to see me off."
Fu Shengyan drove the car honestly without saying anything. After he dropped the man off downstairs, he turned around and said seriously, "I was wrong yesterday. I didn't mean to look down on you, and I shouldn't have speculated about your relationship without authorization."
"I admit, I heard you say yesterday that you felt a little uncomfortable with him," he continued, his fingers unconsciously clenching the steering wheel. He wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. "Don't think too much about it. I just can't stand him."
"...I'll wait here for you to get off work."
Lin Zhihua has always been soft-hearted and would not tolerate harsh words. When she heard these words, her attitude immediately softened. She knew that with Fu Shengyan's stubborn character, saying these words was already his limit.
"I know." She chuckled, opened the car door and got out.
When she came back, she saw through the windshield of the car that Fu Shengyan was leaning on the chair with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
She raised her eyebrows and started to act mischievously. She first poked his long eyelashes, and when he didn't respond, she picked up the iced milk tea in her hand and pressed it against his cheek.
The muscles on Fu Shengyan's face suddenly froze.
"You're such a blockhead! You're staying here even when I didn't ask you to." Lin Zhihua gently pulled his ear. "Okay, stop pretending to be asleep."
Fu Shengyan subconsciously opened his eyes when he heard that, and their eyes met. At this moment, half of her body was almost leaning in his arms.
Lin Zhihua clearly felt a pair of hands on her waist. She shuddered and was about to reach out to push him away, but she was pushed back to the passenger seat first.
Lin Zhihua:?
She looked up in confusion and saw someone's ears turning red.
She blinked her eyes. "Why did you push me? Your face is so red, are you shy?"
Fu Shengyan blushed and fastened her seat belt, looking righteous and stubborn.
"Oh." She covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "I bought milk tea for the driver to comfort him for waiting for so long."
"Yeah." He didn't, picked up the cup of taro ball milk tea that was originally placed on his face, poked a hole in it, and said in a tone of "It's my duty."
"you……"
She was a little confused at first. Did the word "should" mean that she should be the driver, or did it mean something else?
Lin Zhihua knew that he had never liked sweet things since he was a child, but seeing him finish the cup of full-sugar milk tea very seriously, she opened her mouth, but in the end she reluctantly took a big sip of the freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable tea that was originally given to him.
She bit the straw, and said with a hint of complaint, "I didn't realize you were so thirsty. Do you want to drink?"
"I was afraid you wouldn't see me when you came back." He said casually.
"Liar." Lin Zhihua muttered softly. There was a lot of water in the trunk of her father's car when he refueled.
Fu Shengyan pretended not to hear, but instead asked her about her visit to the company today, and she told him the truth.
"I learned a lot today. I want to start my own company in the future." Lin Zhihua held up her chin, with a hint of longing in her eyes.
In her previous life, she was a newly graduated office worker, and every day when she opened her eyes, she would see 996 and endless overtime.
As I grow older, my memories of my past lives become clearer.
Since she had to work anyway, why not work for herself? She wanted to be her own boss in this life!
"Isn't the Fu Group enough for you to manage?" Fu Shengyan said subconsciously.
"Hmm?" Lin Zhihua looked up in confusion, raising an eyebrow in amusement. "Why, do you still want me to manage your family's business?"
He didn't realize anything was wrong and said naturally, "What do you mean by yours? You're the boss anyway..."
The car suddenly shook, and he quickly stopped talking mid-sentence, saying calmly, "I'm saying we can hire you as CEO. I'm a law student anyway, so I can't really control anything..."
"Shut up." Lin Zhihua wiped the spilled fruit tea with a piece of paper, glared at him, and said unhappily, "Drive your car properly. I still want to go home for dinner tonight!"
The originally relaxed atmosphere in the car once again fell into an indescribable subtlety.
He couldn't help but secretly glance at her. Seeing that she wasn't really angry, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a sense of loss that he couldn't explain.
After that, Fu Shengyan drove to the office building on time almost every day, and the pick-up and drop-off service lasted for more than a month.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to make their relationship public, but it seemed that something had quietly changed.
It was not until the Mid-Autumn Festival that Fu Shengyan confessed his love to her with a big bouquet of roses.
A very clichéd confession segment.
During the holidays, many students at University A still did not go home. I don’t know how Fu Shengyan persuaded the school to put up a sea of roses on the playground.
When Fu Shengyan called her over, she had just finished getting herself ready and was about to go to the Great Hall to take a few more photos with Ji Lingxiao, who came to the school to pick up documents.
"Let's go and take a look first, maybe there's something urgent?" Ji Lingxiao urged.
When she arrived at the playground, her attention was drawn to the flowers covering the ground.
The moon is bright and beautiful tonight, and a boy played "The Only One" for her.
Lin Zhihua stood in the sea of flowers, watching Fu Shengyan walking towards her with a large bouquet of roses. She seemed to have anticipated something, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. Worried about the roses under her feet, she only took a few steps forward before stopping.
"Lin Zhizhi, I've liked you since high school..." His expression was obviously nervous, his voice trembled barely perceptibly, and his knuckles were clenched into fists until they turned white.
Lin Zhihua's heart skipped a beat and she opened her eyes wide. She didn't expect Fu Shengyan to confess to her first.
He took a deep breath, walked over to Lin Zhihua, and handed her the exquisitely wrapped rose. His expression was more serious than ever before. "I'm so happy just seeing you. My heart beats faster when I'm close to you."
"The thing I regret most in my life is moving your table away," he looked at her without blinking, his pounding heart slowly calming down. Memories will fade, but love and instinct will not.
"Because the first time I saw you, you were the only one left in my world."
Fu Shengyan's eyes fell on her, unwilling to move even a little.
The subsequent provocations and anger were nothing but the awkwardness of youth. If you think about it carefully, they were all childish tricks to attract attention.
The feeling that touched my heart is indescribable.
"I love you." Lin Zhihua accepted the bouquet of red roses with confidence. She looked into his eyes and said word by word, "Maybe you think I have thousands of reasons to fall in love with you, but you are my one and only rose."
"Just like the stars travel thousands of light years to the night sky, my heart beats for you."
She is not someone who likes to say sweet words, but today she is very happy and can come up with nice words easily.
Fu Shengyan was stunned by her two sentences. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. His chest felt swollen and his heartbeat was loud in the moonlight.
"Ahhh, together!"
"Kiss one, kiss one!"
At some point, the beach of flowers was filled with people.
Fu Shengyan's expression went blank, and the mocking voices around him grew louder. He seemed to casually take Lin Zhihua's hand, but only she knew that his palm was slightly sweaty, and he only dared to hold half of her hand.
Later, Lin Zhihua asked him why he chose that day to confess.
Fu Shengyan blinked, leaned close to her ear, and said with a low laugh, "It's nothing, it's just that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival happens to be on September 21st."
Because the date of this day means,
I will love you for a long time.
