It had rained last night, and new shoots were sprouting in the roadside grass. The air was filled with a damp smell, and a gentle breeze brought a cool breeze.
Fu Kang offered Fu Wenzhou a cigarette, but he didn't take it. His voice was slightly cold: "I've quit."
"You've given it up?" Fu Kang was slightly surprised.
Fu Wenzhou's gaze was indifferent, his profile sharp, and his voice, like the first light of dawn after rain, carried a hint of coolness: "Yes, Youyou won't let me draw until her injury heals."
Fu Kang understood, and then said, "It's all taken care of. Shall we collect his body?"
Fu Wenzhou's lips curled into a smile, revealing a hint of ruthlessness, but his tone was very calm: "It's not worth it. Isn't it better to let wild dogs fight over food?"
Fu Kang nodded slightly: "Young Master, is there anything else you need?"
In private, Fu Kang usually calls Fu Wenzhou "Young Master".
Fu Wenzhou tapped his long, thin fingers on the car window: "Keep a close eye on him. Under no circumstances can anything happen to him. Bring him back safely in a month."
Fu Kang wasn't often by Fu Wenzhou's side. Unlike close bodyguards like Fu Nan and Fu Bei, Fu Kang's job was not only to protect Fu Wenzhou, but also to be a weapon for the Fu family.
He usually hides his talents, but when he unleashes them, he will surely draw blood.
Fu Kang only needed to draw his sword, while the aftermath was handled by others hiding in the shadows.
They each performed their duties without interfering with each other.
And they only obeyed the orders of Fu Wenzhou.
Fu Kang didn't know who Yun Nian was, but he would only do as his master ordered without asking any questions.
"Yes, young master."
"Hmm," Fu Wenzhou replied casually.
Yun Nian clung to the door, listening intently for a long time but couldn't hear anything. He could sense that this car was unusual; for example, the windows were different from ordinary ones, looking more like bulletproof glass, and the car model had also been modified.
Although Yun Nian had always stayed on the island and had never been in contact with the outside world, his master would tell him a lot of things and bring back many books to teach him, so he knew quite a lot.
His intuition told him that Fu Kang not only looked fierce, but also seemed like someone not to be trifled with.
He regretted not discussing it with Fu Wenzhou; he was even worse off than Fu Bei, that taciturn guy.
Yun Nian watched Fu Kang get into the car with wide eyes, shrinking her neck in fear, "Kang... Uncle Kang, hello."
Fu Kang glanced at him in the rearview mirror, the scar on his brow bone twitching a few centimeters higher: "Am I that scary?"
Yun Nian shook her head vigorously: "No, no, no, no... it's not scary!"
Fu Kang found the child quite interesting, raised an eyebrow and stopped teasing him: "Where are you going?"
"ah?"
"I'm asking you where you're going."
"Oh, Haizhou, a small coastal city at the southernmost part of the map." Yun Nian tried his best to be clear. He had never been to his master's hometown and could only repeat what his master had said from memory.
Fu Kang: "Hmm."
As the vehicle drove further and further away, Fu Wenzhou casually put one hand in his pocket and slowly looked away.
I had just gotten back to my room when my WeChat beeped.
Fu Wenzhou switched between his indifferent and aloof expression seamlessly, excitedly opening WeChat. However, upon seeing that the message notification was from Gu Baifa, his expression returned to normal.
Gu Bai: When did you get back? Why didn't you tell us? Don't you even care about us brothers anymore? Fu Wenzhou, you're really something, you've forgotten all about your buddies now that you have a wife!
Fu Wenzhou: Get lost.
Gu Bai had been typing for a while when he finally sent back an angry emoji.
Gu Bai: Are you healed yet?
Fu Wenzhou: Hmm.
Gu Bai: ...
Gu Bai: Would you die if you typed two more words?
Fu Wenzhou: Yes.
Gu Bai: ………………
Gu Bai: Come out tonight, we've thrown you a welcome-back party, and your wife is coming too.
Upon seeing the message, Fu Wenzhou frowned in annoyance and replied coldly: She's busy.
Gu Bai called immediately: "Why aren't you free?"
Fu Wenzhou scoffed, "My Youyou has to earn money to support the family every day. Do you think she's like you, idling around all day?"
Gu Bai's lips twitched: "You can praise Song Qingyou if you want, but can you at least not insult me? What did I do to you? Come over tonight, the usual place, Xu Zezhan and Guan Nan will be there."
Fu Wenzhou said in a lazy tone, "I need to inform my wife first. I'll go if she agrees."
Gu Bai rolled his eyes: "Are you out of your mind?"
"Get lost," Fu Wenzhou said expressionlessly.
Gu Bai had seen through Fu Wenzhou's henpecked ways long ago. He snorted and said, "You have to come. This welcome-home banquet is for you. If the host doesn't come, what's the point of us drinking?"
Fu Wenzhou tossed out two words: "We'll see."
She slammed the phone down.
Gu Bai was speechless. He turned to Xu Zezhan and complained, "I'm really fed up with Fu Wenzhou. He can't stop talking about Song Qingyou all day long. He even has to report to his wife before going out for a drink. I can never marry a woman who's always bossing me around."
Xu Zezhan paused as he flipped through the documents, then looked up and asked, "What kind of person are you looking for?"
Gu Bai sat on Xu Zezhan's sofa and ordered Xu Zezhan like a lord: "I'm thirsty, pour me a glass of water."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zezhan got up and went to get him a glass of water.
Gu Bai finished his drink in a few gulps and handed the empty cup back to him: "Zhan is still the best."
Xu Zezhan stared at him for two seconds, then said, "This cup is mine."
Gu Bai looked completely bewildered: "I know, so what if it's yours? Does that mean I can't use it? Can you stop being so stingy? We even kissed when we were kids, so what's wrong with me drinking your saliva?"
Xu Zezhan's expression was ambiguous as he said calmly, "Let's not bring up the kindergarten matter."
