Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Your sister-in-law and I are going to bed.
The reason for this complaint was that Fu Yu was too lazy to argue with his brother anymore, so he opened the door and told him to go in and play quietly, and warned him that this was the last time and he would not be allowed to enter the main door next time.
Fu Zhou was completely irritated by his brother's xenophobia. Who would feel good about hearing such words for no reason? There should at least be a reasonable reason to drive him away, right?
Also, why is the study room different? Where did this bed come from? I begged you to give me a room, but you said there wasn't enough. So, after we got married, there's an extra bed? Who's sleeping in it? You're being so secretive, there must be something hidden. Are you probably playing games all night like you do at home? Bro, you have a criminal record. Mom told me about you. You didn't let me in because you felt guilty! Anyone with a discerning eye can tell you sleep here all the time!
Fu Zhou stood up with his back straight, but seeing Fu Yu's gloomy face, he thought he had hurt him.
Fu Yu put his hands behind his back, holding the door handle, thinking that this was terrible, the little brat was getting stubborn with him.
"What do you want?"
Fu Zhou had no intention of doing anything; he simply logged onto his brother's account to satisfy his craving, leaving a casual impression of his presence during Operation Delta, and then leaving after his parents finished their meal. However, Fu Yu's double standards stirred a rebellious spirit in him, and he insisted on staying the night.
"No." Fu Yu refused him without thinking.
Fu Zhou had never been treated so coldly, so he started yelling.
Before Fu Yu could cover his mouth, several people from the kitchen rushed over. Qiu Yanfang asked what was going on, and Fu Zhou threw out all his theories.
As Tang Ke listened, his expression went from gloomy to relieved. His brother only suspected that Fu Yu had a severe internet addiction, and did not suspect that there was marital discord.
It is indeed difficult to trust someone with a criminal record. During the summer vacation after Fu Yu finished the college entrance examination, he hardly went out every day. He either played games or slept with his new computer. He sometimes only played games and didn't sleep at all. It was too much. Later, when he went to college, he did not change his bad habits. It was said that he often stayed up late, so it was easy for Fu's parents to believe what he said.
Fu Yu said nothing and looked at Tang Ke helplessly.
He is such a grown-up but still being taught by his parents that he is "ignorant". It's so pitiful to see him with his eyebrows drooping so much.
"Oh, no, that's not the case. Sometimes he gets off work very late, and in order not to disturb my sleep, he sleeps in the study." Tang Ke came to his rescue.
Even though his reason was legitimate, the two elders didn't let him go: "It's not a good thing to be late for get off work. Do you have the nerve to make Xiao Ke wait for you every day?"
Fu Yu raised the corner of his mouth when he was accused and said, "Okay, I understand. I will go home earlier next time."
Fu Zhou realized that he had misunderstood his brother and scratched his nose awkwardly: "Oh...um, sister-in-law, can I stay here today? I haven't touched a video game console in a long time, and my brother won't let me play. And mainly..." He tilted his neck awkwardly, his voice getting smaller and smaller, "I have a question I want to ask you."
He'd wanted to ask at the dinner table, but his parents were always there to speak for him, so he couldn't articulate what he wanted to say. After his emotions subsided, he thought carefully, and perhaps staying overnight would really put his mind at ease.
Fu Yu held his shoulders and shook his head: "Your sister-in-law is busy."
"You don't have the final say." Fu Zhou twisted his body gracefully, avoiding the pressure from his brother's palm, and looked at Tang Ke with a pair of bright eyes. In his opinion, his sister-in-law was more capable of making the decision.
Tang Ke smiled: "You can ask now."
Fu Zhou carefully pointed at his parents: "They will say something about me."
"Look at you, kid. Should we ask you to find Xiao Ke or should we give you the idea?" Qiu Yanfang sneered.
"Can I, sister-in-law? I'm going back to school tomorrow." Fu Zhou clasped his hands together and pleaded.
Under normal circumstances, Tang Ke had plenty of ways to deal with the situation, but the key point was that she was holding the red envelope given to her by her mother-in-law, who had just blown it with great confidence. All the necessary elements were present, forcing her to agree.
Isn’t he just a reliable adult? She will definitely be that person.
"Sure, of course. Fu Yu, go down and make your brother's bed." Tang Ke immediately took the bag generously and patted Fu Zhou on the back with the demeanor of an elder. "If you have any ideas, speak up boldly. I will help you with anything I can solve."
Fu Zhou is a bully at home and only quarrels with Fu Yu and his parents. If his sister-in-law is not convenient, he will not force it. With the mentality of giving it a try, she actually agreed.
He smiled sheepishly: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Qiu Yanfang gave him one instruction after another, telling him to be obedient at his brother and sister-in-law's house and not to cause trouble. Fu Yu once said that in his mother's eyes, a man should live like a soldier standing guard at Tiananmen Square to be considered a man; otherwise, he would have some flaws. Fu Zhou understood this and chose to side with his brother.
After sending his parents away, his younger brother finally got his wish and served as a soldier in the study. Tang Ke and Fu Yu washed dishes together in the kitchen. They both knew what it meant to let his younger brother stay, so Fu Yu didn't ask what to do, but why.
"Your family has helped me a lot financially. If I have the chance to repay you, I will." Tang Ke shook her hands, exhausted from a night of pretentiousness, and clung to the chair like melted butter. She looked toward the brightly lit study door and said, "Thank goodness, despite all your evil deeds, they didn't suspect anything. Thank you for your good reputation."
"Isn't this a compliment?" Fu Yu sat opposite her, resting his forearm on the table, pointing to his forehead.
"Um?"
"The hair is stuck."
"Oh oh." Tang Ke pushed back his half-wet bangs.
Silence flowed between the two of them for two minutes before Fu Yu slowly spoke: "I'll go to the living room after he falls asleep."
His words were half-heartedly indicating that they would sleep together at night, but he skipped the user informed consent form and went straight to the next solution.
Although Tang Ke didn't find it difficult to speak out, he was still a little shy. His throat was choked and his eyelashes fluttered. "Ah, well, actually, I can sleep on the sofa."
"How many round trips does it usually take?" Fu Yu asked a confusing question.
Tang Ke replied: "Three or so."
"I'll sleep in it. It's your room now."
"No, no, no, I'll sleep. The whole house is yours."
"No, I'd better sleep. I can hear the noise outside."
"Okay, then go to sleep. Be careful not to catch a cold at night."
"Are you feeling better?"
"Comfortable."
Tang Ke stood up and asked him to take a shower first. She went to the study to chat with her brother for a while.
When Fu Zhou heard his sister-in-law knocking on the door, he quit the game quickly, sat up straight, called her name politely, and gave her his seat.
"No, I'll just sit here." Tang Ke sat on Fu Yu's bed. It was indeed the mattress she had chosen personally, soft and bouncy enough.
"Have you decided what position you want to apply for? It's probably too late by the end of this year. Are you planning to take the exam after you graduate next year?"
"Yeah. As for positions, I've looked at some before. The ones that are suitable for my major and that I like are not here at home, but I actually want to come back and develop." Fu Zhou said.
"You can take a detour to save your country. There are more opportunities outside. If you stay there for two years and then come back, you might have more advantages. You don't have to worry about geographical restrictions. Give priority to what you like."
Tang Ke shared with him her experience of passing the civil service exam a few years ago. Before they knew it, an hour had passed. Fu Zhou was a talkative person and she spoke happily.
Until the study door was opened and a head popped out from the crack.
"Aren't you done talking yet? Your sister-in-law and I are going to bed."
