Chapter 566 Brother Chengzhou, come and have dinner after get off work
Seeing her frown when she heard that she was going to live across from her brother, Fu Chengze thought to himself that this girl might be considering finding another house to live in. After thinking for a while, Fu Chengze said with a smile: "My brother and I look so much alike, and you are not afraid of me. Why do you treat my brother like a flood or a beast? You are not secretly in love with my brother, are you?"
Xu Lingwei rolled her eyes at him coldly, "This joke isn't funny at all. You're saying it as if you're not afraid of Chengzhou. Brother Chengzhou and I haven't spent much time together, so of course I respect him."
"Pfft, respect, you're so smart." Fu Chengze learned it, and from then on, when he was timid in front of his elder brother, he would call it "respect".
"Never mind. Uncle Shen and Aunt Xu are very satisfied with this community. I can't find another community as good as this one. If you want to move away, I won't help you if you ask me for help again in the future." Fu Chengze used his trump card.
Xu Lingwei glanced at him and pouted, "Okay, I'll live here."
"Once you move in, you can't move out unless you move back home. Otherwise, I'll ask my friend to raise the rent." Fu Chengze said these infuriating words calmly.
"Raise the rent?" Xu Lingwei's eyes were confused. "Didn't you say you would be responsible for my rent? Besides, this is Brother Chengzhou's house, he shouldn't ask me for rent!"
"You may be afraid of my brother, but you're pretty calm when it comes to money. The rent I'm talking about is your office rent. The landlord of that building is a friend of mine."
“…”Damn Fu Chengze, he has too many friends.
Fu Chengze: There’s nothing I can do. I’m a natural sociable person. I’m so handsome, so is it reasonable that I don’t have friends?
Under his coercion and inducement, Xu Lingwei no longer had any intention of moving. After packing her luggage, she ordered two takeouts and ate while making a video call to Xu Ziyue.
Watching them tucking into their takeout, Xu Ziyue opened her mouth to blame them, but then she remembered that when she was younger, she also liked eating out, especially instant noodles. She didn't say anything, but gently reminded them, "You should cook for yourself occasionally, otherwise, if it rains or something, you won't be able to order takeout and you'll starve to death."
"I know. Mom, let me show you this house. Brother Chengzhou decorated it. I'll live across from him from now on. You and Dad can rest assured."
Xu Ziyue's eyes lit up, "Oh, so you live across the street from Chengzhou." Now she can really put her mind at ease.
"Yes, Aunt Xu, the occupancy rate of this community is very high. The remaining houses are far away from the gate and the decoration is not good. After thinking about it, I asked my brother, and he directly agreed to let Meibao live in. My brother has lived here for several years. He bought an entire floor and decorated the house opposite as well. Now it is very convenient for Meibao. Don't worry, my brother will keep an eye on Meibao in the future." Fu Chengze stretched his head over, asking for praise.
Xu Ziyue smiled and said, "With Chengzhou here, I feel relieved."
Xu Ziyue was really worried if her daughter lived with Fu Chengze, because when these two were together, they would always want to cause chaos in the world, and they had been like this since they were young.
Chengzhou is different. His temperament is dozens of times more stable than his peers and he is very intimidating.
As soon as Xu Lingwei heard her mother's tone, she knew that her mother wanted someone to take care of her, but there was nothing she could do. She wanted to move out as soon as she returned to China, so it was normal for her parents to worry.
"Eating takeout?" Shen Shian sat next to Xu Ziyue with a book in his hand, looking at the screen on his phone and sighing, "Chengze skipped work to accompany you moving, and you actually treated him to takeout."
Xu Lingwei: "Dad, you don't understand. Brother Chengze likes to eat takeout recently."
Fu Chengze: "Yes, Uncle Shen, I like to eat takeout."
Well, he felt that takeout was much more delicious than the dishes cooked by Xu Lingwei.
"Only Chengze would indulge you like this. If it were someone else, I'd beat you to death." Shen Shian's tone was quite derisive. "When you're rested, I'll take your mother to your place and cook for you. Chengze can come over to eat too."
Fu Chengze: "Okay."
Xu Ziyue glanced sideways at her husband. She had overestimated how much he disliked their daughter. She had thought that he would miss his daughter in two days, but she didn't expect that he would start thinking about her before the day was over.
Xu Lingwei also noticed it, narrowed her eyes slightly, giggled, and pointed the phone at her face, saying pitifully: "When the time comes, Mom, don't leave. Stay with me for ten days or half a month. I'll take Mom to see my new flower garden."
"Ahem, ten days or half a month is too long. You guys should eat. We are a little hungry too. That's it. I'm hanging up." Shen Shian hung up the phone quickly.
Fu Chengze gave a thumbs up and said, "It has to be you. It's a pity that I'm a man. If I dare to keep my mother, my father will break his legs."
After eating the takeout, Fu Chengze helped mop the floor. When they left, it was already past five in the afternoon. Xu Lingwei wanted to invite him out for dinner, but Fu Chengze refused. He wanted to go home and cook for himself and enjoy the leisure time of cooking alone.
On the way out of the community, Fu Chengze called his brother and said, "Brother, Meibao has moved in across the street from you. Please take good care of her and keep a close eye on her. Don't let her hang out outside late at night."
"Got it." Fu Chengzhou responded casually. Fu Chengze had nothing else to say. He made an appointment to play basketball together next week and hung up the phone. Fu Chengzhou had just put his phone back on the table when it vibrated and a text message appeared.
Ling Wei: Brother Chengzhou, I've moved across the street from you. Come over to my place for dinner after get off work today.
Fu Chengzhou replied with one word: [OK].
After a while, it was time to get off work, and Fu Chengzhou drove back to the community.
He first went back to his own residence to put his things away before ringing the doorbell opposite.
Soon, there were light footsteps heard, and the next second there was a click, and the door opened from the inside, revealing a pair of clear and bright eyes.
"Brother Chengzhou, you're off work, come in quickly."
As she spoke, Xu Lingwei pushed the door inward, took out a pair of unused men's slippers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to him.
Fu Chengzhou put on slippers and followed her inside. Soon, he saw four dishes and a soup on the table. They looked quite good.
Noticing the man's gaze, Xu Lingwei quickly explained, "I learned a lot of dishes abroad, and my classmates praised them highly. Although they're not as delicious as Brother Chengze's, they're still pretty good. Thank you, Brother Chengzhou, for sharing your house with me. Inviting you out for dinner didn't seem sincere enough, so I cooked it myself..."
"Don't be so polite." Fu Chengzhou felt Xu Lingwei's restraint and politeness. This situation was very familiar to him, because many people would be like Xu Lingwei when facing him, probably because they thought he was difficult to talk to and difficult to get along with. Well, in fact, he was indeed very difficult to talk to.
Fu Chengzhou deliberately restrained his aura and said calmly, "Sit down and eat."
"Yeah." Xu Lingwei was like a soldier who had received an order. He stretched out his hand to pull out a chair and asked Fu Chengzhou to sit down. Then, he walked to the opposite side, pulled out a chair and sat down. The whole process was very mechanical.
Only after sitting down did I realize how stupid my behavior was.
No, she was clearly inviting her brother to dinner, not inviting the boss home for dinner.
