"I'm not lying to you. Okay, go to sleep. I'll take you to town tomorrow morning." He didn't want to change his surname to Wang, which was the result of his struggle with his mother.
He didn't want to forget his biological father and wanted to always be a child of the Fu family. Besides, his original surname was Fu. If he changed his surname to Wang, would that mean he was a member of the Wang family?
Wang Jingjing ignored Fu Jinheng's words as if she hadn't heard them, offering no response, and turned to go back to her room to rest.
Watching her retreating figure, Fu Jinheng sighed inwardly, his lips pressed into a thin line.
It wasn't that he was old-fashioned or cared too much about saving face that prevented his sister from being with Xiao Yu; it was simply that a gay man like Xiao Yu was incompatible with his straightforward, simple-minded sister.
reason?
It was quite simple. Fu Jinheng had already recalled the impression Xiao Yu had given him. Even though he hadn't had much contact with Xiao Yu, they had lived in the same compound when they were young, were of similar age, and had attended the same primary, junior high, and even high school. So he knew a little about Xiao Yu's personality.
Gentle and refined on the surface, but in reality, indifferent and aloof. To spend a lifetime with such a person, one must not only have a brilliant mind, but also be tolerant and considerate. Otherwise, the two of you will surely suffer together.
His mentally challenged sister is so simple-minded that it's no exaggeration to say she's like a person with a single, unbroken intestine.
He was spoiled by his mother and stepfather and is careless. If he and Xiao Yu become a couple in the future, will he be able to tolerate each other's temperament for a long time?
In any case, Fu Jinheng believed from the bottom of his heart that it would be very difficult for Wang Jingjing to do that!
The next day.
After getting up and washing up, Fu Jinheng knocked on Wang Jingjing's door, then cooked two bowls of scallion noodles, poached two eggs in each, and added a few drops of sesame oil. He then placed the bowls on the dining table, only to find that the door to the bedroom where Wang Jingjing had slept the night before was still tightly closed.
Okay, Wang Jingjing slept in Fu Jinheng's bedroom, while Fu Jinheng slept in the study last night.
Fortunately, there was a folding bed in the study; otherwise, Fu Jinheng would probably have had to sleep on the floor in the study.
"Are you up yet?"
Frowning, Fu Jinheng stood outside the master bedroom door and knocked on it with his finger.
"I'm not up yet. You go to work. I want to sleep a little longer!"
Wang Jingjing's voice, clearly still half asleep, rang out. Upon hearing this, Fu Jinheng paused for a moment, then said, "You're not planning to leave today?"
"I'm leaving first thing tomorrow morning, so don't disturb my sleep!"
With a hint of impatience in her tone, Wang Jingjing simply pulled the blanket over her head.
"I made you some noodles. Remember to eat them when you get up."
Fu Jinheng left those words behind, then went to the dining table, sat down, and picked up his chopsticks to eat his bowl of noodles.
A few minutes later, after he had finished eating and drinking, washed the dishes, and came to the master bedroom door again.
“You can go back to the capital tomorrow, but you have to listen to me and not go to the Shi Song Brigade.”
Separated by a door, Fu Jinheng received no response. He sighed and continued, "You're not a child anymore. You should know what's good and what's bad. I have to go to work now. Think it over carefully!"
In the bedroom, Wang Jingjing heard footsteps leaving outside the door, and then heard the sound of the door opening and closing. She immediately threw off the covers and sat up.
"My legs are part of my body. If you don't allow me to go, I'll just sneak off."
Muttering to herself, Wang Jingjing got dressed, took out a comb and toiletries from her suitcase, and after finishing, sat down at the table and ate all the noodles and poached eggs in her bowl, even drinking half a bowl of soup.
"I'll wash it when I get back."
Even though it was just a few steps away, Wang Jingjing didn't want to wash the dishes right now. She went back to her bedroom to tidy up a bit, then picked up her bag and prepared to leave.
Fu Jinheng left the key on the dining table, and to avoid not being able to get in when he returned, he naturally didn't forget to put it in his bag.
-
With a black leather bag slung over her shoulder and gifts she had bought from the supply and marketing cooperative in her hand, Wang Jingjing, after making inquiries, boarded a bus heading towards Shisong Village, feeling both excited and a little uneasy.
Undoubtedly, her excitement stemmed from the prospect of seeing Xiao Yu soon; yet, the unease she felt was also a result of Xiao Yu's presence.
Wang Jingjing was afraid, afraid that when she saw Xiao Yu... he would look at her like a stranger, and wouldn't even say a word to her...
Due to the poor road conditions, the bus ride was inevitably bumpy. In addition, the bus was a retired vehicle from the city, so it was not only noisy during the journey, but also had a strong smell of gasoline inside.
With an itchy throat, enduring nausea and a bumpy ride, Wang Jingjing finally arrived at her destination.
As soon as she got out of the car, she dry heaved for a while by the roadside.
Once she felt a bit better, Wang Jingjing couldn't help but feel grateful that the weather had cooled down. Otherwise, riding that dilapidated bus in the middle of summer would have been even more miserable.
Thinking about how unhygienic people in the countryside are, and how the bus is full of sweat and foot odor in the middle of summer, Wang Jingjing, who had just started to feel a little better, began to vomit again!
After a long while, Wang Jingjing repeatedly told herself not to think about it anymore, and only then did she manage to suppress the urge to vomit.
"Little friend, is this the Shisong Brigade?"
Upon reaching the entrance of Shisong Village, Wang Jingjing took out a handful of fruit candies from her pocket and asked the children watching her.
"...Which one are you looking for?"
One of the children was a bit bolder. He and his friends didn't reach out to take the fruit candy from Wang Jingjing's hand. Instead, they asked a question with wary expressions.
Although candy is sweet, adults have said that kidnappers love to use candy and toys to trick children. If you are kidnapped, you can forget about ever seeing your family again.
Therefore, the fruit candies in Wang Jingjing's hand were indeed very attractive to the children. They all wanted to stick their eyes to them, but none of them reached out to grab them.
"I'm not a bad person, don't be afraid. These candies are very sweet, they're for you."
Wang Jingjing stepped forward, intending to share the candy with the children. However, the children standing in front of her all took a step back. Seeing this, Wang Jingjing smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm definitely not a bad person. I'm here to see Song Lan's family. Do you know where her house is?"
"Do you know the fairy sister in our village?"
The little boy who first asked Wang Jingjing a question looked up at her and asked, "What's your relationship with the fairy sister?"
"Fairy Sister?"
Wang Jingjing paused for a moment, then realized what she meant. She tried to speak in a gentle voice and said with a smile, "So Song Lan is called Fairy Sister by you kids? That makes sense, she really is as beautiful as a fairy. As for me, she's my friend!"
"You're not lying to us?"
The little boy who spoke to Wang Jingjing was named Huwa. He was about six or seven years old and had a chubby face. He carefully looked at Wang Jingjing, trying to tell from her face whether she was lying.
Wang Jingjing: "Of course not, do you think I'm a bad person?" Children are not easy to coax, especially these country kids who have never seen the world. But why do these kids she met... all seem so shrewd?
"Since you're friends with Fairy Sister... why did you come to our village to look for her? Don't you know Fairy Sister works at the machinery factory's staff hospital?"
