Chapter 31 He's Not That Fragile
"Go away! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
Fu Tanxiu glanced over coldly, his eyes full of warning.
Shi Qian: "I know Qiao Bei is different to you. You love her like a sister. No matter how much she does to you, you never hold it against her."
"But brother, you can't let her control you like this. Qiao Bei is too scheming. You can't beat her if you're so soft-hearted."
"I don't understand. You've always been ruthless and decisive, but why are you so indecisive when it comes to Qiao Bei?"
Fu Tanxiu was annoyed when he heard this: "Get out!"
Shi Qian curled his lips and shamelessly stayed behind.
The two smoked in silence for a while.
Shi Qian spoke again: "I'm serious, please think about it."
Boom boom boom.
There was a knock on the door.
Then Meng Yuci's voice came: "Tan Xiu, it's me, can I come in?"
Fu Tanxiu frowned and looked at Shi Qian warningly: "Keep your mouth shut about Qiao Bei's affairs."
Shi Qian looked as if he understood and ran to open the door.
My good brother, he is afraid that the woman he likes will find out that she has a child and make trouble with him.
As a man, he understands and of course he won't say anything nonsense.
The door opens.
"Yuci, you're here."
Meng Yuci pursed her lips and smiled: "Shi Qian, you are here too."
"Yeah, I just arrived. Come on in."
Meng Yuci walked in and locked his eyes on Fu Tanxiu.
Fu Tanxiu had already put out his cigarette and was standing by the window with one hand in his pocket.
Shi Qian took a puff of his cigarette and looked at the two of them with a half-smile.
The good brother still liked Meng Yuci, and when he saw her coming, he immediately put out his cigarette.
"You guys chat, I'm leaving." Shi Qian closed the door for them.
Meng Yuci walked towards Fu Tanxiu and stopped in front of him.
"Tan Xiu, why didn't you go to the concert that day?"
"What?"
Fu Tanxiu didn't think of this for a moment.
Meng Yuci's face froze.
Fu Tanxiu actually forgot!
"I called you about my cello recital on Wednesday night and you said you would go, but you didn't show up until the end."
Meng Yuci's tone was filled with resentment.
Fu Tanxiu remembered that this seemed to be the case.
"Sorry, I forgot."
Although Meng Yuci was dissatisfied, he knew he couldn't hold on to it, so he made a request instead: "Let's have dinner together tonight. You treat me as an apology."
Fu Tanxiu was silent for two seconds and nodded.
Meng Yuci smiled.
…
The restaurant was chosen by Meng Yuci, a high-end French restaurant.
After dinner, Meng Yuci asked, "Tan Xiu, I don't have a car, can you give me a ride?"
Fu Tanxiu did not refuse.
Meng Yuci felt that taking advantage of Fu Tanxiu's guilt could sometimes achieve some unexpected results.
She thought that Fu Tanxiu would propose to her soon after divorcing Qiao Bei.
But several months passed and Fu Tanxiu was lukewarm towards her. If she didn't go to him, Fu Tanxiu would not contact her on his own initiative.
Not to mention proposing, they are not even boyfriend and girlfriend right now.
She was too embarrassed to bring it up, feeling that it was not reserved.
She has been waiting for Fu Tanxiu to speak, and has been waiting until now.
Fortunately, Fu Tanxiu and Qiao Bei are divorced, so she has plenty of time to take things slowly.
The car stopped and Meng Yuci turned his head with affectionate eyes.
"Tan Xiu, come forward and sit down."
Fu Tanxiu refused: "It's late, go upstairs."
Meng Yuci got out of the car disappointed and watched the Rolls-Royce drive away.
Old Chen: "Master, are you going back to Xichen Yipin?"
Fu Tanxiu: "Go to Guanghua Community."
When they arrived at Guanghua Community, Lao Chen thought he would not go up.
As a result, Fu Tanxiu opened the car door and walked into the building.
Qiao Bei endured it for several days, but he couldn't bear it anymore, so he finally took a shower today.
The weather is hot and I feel smelly.
She came out of the bathroom wearing a pink hair drying cap and bumped into Fu Tanxiu who was coming in.
Their eyes met, and both sides were stunned.
Qiao Bei didn't expect him to come over at this time.
Fu Tanxiu lowered his gaze and looked somewhere, then looked away awkwardly after a while.
Qiao Bei realized later that she was not wearing any underwear.
She ran back to her room with a red face.
I was looking for a bra to put on, feeling frustrated.
She had to wear her bra at all times from now on so this wouldn't happen again.
The self-righteous Fu Tanxiu would think that she was deliberately seducing him like this.
Fu Tanxiu sat down on the small sofa, and Sister Zeng carried Qiao Doudou over.
"Mr. Fu, would you like to hold the child?"
Fu Tanxiu frowned but didn't move.
Sister Zeng was very embarrassed.
It seems like good intentions have led to bad results.
Mr. Fu probably doesn't like this child. If he did, he wouldn't have gone a week without visiting the child.
Qiao Bei saw what just happened.
It would be a lie to say I'm not sad.
Although the child is hers alone, she hopes her son will receive more love, especially fatherly love.
Fu Tanxiu didn't like her, and as a result, he also disliked Qiao Doudou.
The confinement nanny knew that the two had something to say, so she put Qiao Doudou in the crib and left under the pretext of going downstairs to throw away the trash.
She moved a chair and sat not far away.
Fu Tanxiu raised his eyes and looked.
The girl had just taken a bath, and her face was as white and clean as a freshly peeled egg.
A pair of big peach blossom eyes looked around innocently, and the eyelashes were incredibly long.
His eyes fell on her hair and his brows furrowed.
"Where's the hairdryer?"
Qiao Bei didn't know what he was going to do, so he pointed to the bathroom and said, "The second drawer of the sink."
Fu Tanxiu walked towards the bathroom and came back with a hair dryer after a while. He plugged it in and stood behind Qiao Bei.
Qiao Bei then realized that he was going to blow dry her hair. She was surprised for a second before stopping him: "It will disturb the children."
Fu Tanxiu: "He's not that squeamish."
After saying that, turn on the switch.
Qiao Bei wanted to turn her head, but he held her down forcefully: "Don't move!"
"I can do it myself."
"I don't want to say the same thing a second time."
Qiao Bei curled her lips, secretly criticizing him for being domineering.
Five minutes later, Fu Tanxiu put away the hair dryer.
Just as Qiao Bei was about to stand up, a pair of hands reached into her hair, gently tidying up her slightly messy hair.
She froze, her heart skipping a beat.
This action is too intimate.
"alright."
With a low voice, the big hand left.
Fu Tanxiu went to the bathroom with a hair dryer.
Qiao Bei watched him sit back down on the sofa.
Fu Tanxiu is very tall and has long legs, and he looks very cramped sitting on the small sofa.
Qiao Bei was the first to speak: "What are you doing here?"
Fu Tanxiu didn't say anything, just looked at her straight.
Qiao Bei was panicked. "I know you're angry, but I'll say it again. Qiao Doudou has nothing to do with you. I won't use him to force you to do anything. You can rest assured about this."
Everyone thought that she gave birth to this child to harass Fu Tanxiu.
But she really didn't have such an idea.
"Qiao Doudou? Did you name it?"
Qiao Bei nodded: "It sounds good, right?"
Fu Tanxiu pressed his eyebrows without making any comment.
Two minutes later, he said, "Call Fu Ningyuan."
"What?" Qiao Bei didn't react for a moment.
Fu Tanxiu: "I said his name is Fu Ningyuan."
