Chapter 31 Chapter 31 Did I ever tell you that you look like a...
Fu Rouyun was determined to repay Cen Xue.
Although Cen Xue didn't know how it came to this point of wanting to repay her.
But looking at his pair of pleading round eyes, which were as big as black beans, I couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.
Fu Rouyun: "Brother, please leave me your phone number. I'll come to see you next time."
Cen Xue: "..."
Good at getting close to people.
For the price of a bowl of noodles, I got a good brother.
Because he had to attend evening classes, he carried books and pens, but since it was an elective course, he didn't bring his notebook, but he was reluctant to tear up the book.
Noticing Cen Xue's hesitation, Fu Rouyun said, "Write on my palm... on my sleeve!"
He pulled up his sleeve, covering his wrist, and held it in front of Cen Xue.
Cen Xue: "Don't you feel bad?"
"Writing on my hands will ruin them," Fu Rouyun thought. "It's just a matter of washing the handwriting. It's easy."
Wrong, I will never wash this piece of clothing again.
This hoodie will be hung in the most protected place in the closet as a souvenir of their first meeting. When they are together again, he will take it out and reminisce this romantic moment with Cen Xue.
Thinking of this, Fu Rouyun couldn't help but smile.
Cen Xue missed his bright expression as soon as she imagined it, took out a pen, held Fu Rouyun's hand to control him from moving, and carefully wrote down a string of numbers.
The fabric was a bit thin, and every stroke not only left behind black markings, but the force was also transmitted through the cloth to the skin on the inside of the wrist, which was like scratching an itch through a shoe, making people feel restless, but they couldn't find the exact itchy spot.
Along with the increasingly strong peach sweetness, it was as if an invisible feather was sweeping Fu Rouyun's heart.
"It's finished... huh?"
Cen Xue looked up, "Are you hot?"
Fu Rouyun wiped his face with three random pieces of paper and said, "It's not hot."
The small shops on the street are all small businesses, and the paper they supply is very thin and has strange grainy textures.
Fu Rouyun used a lot of strength in a hurry, and a little sweat remained on the paper.
Cen Xue couldn't hold back her laughter and helped him take it off.
The paper stuck to his fingertips and flew away with a gentle blow.
Cen Xue: "If you get home, please send me a message so I can rest assured."
When Fu Rouyun witnessed this blowing, it seemed as if his heart was attached to it and was blown away.
He responded foolishly: "...Okay."
Really, you can't be too nice to him.
The warning of doom rose, and Fu Rouyun lay at the bottom of the pit of liking Cen Xue and raised the white flag, unable to climb out again.

After being taken home, his mother laughed at him.
Mr. Fu: "Wow, our family is going to have a hiking expert."
The total distance from high school to the suburban university town is almost twenty kilometers.
After being teased like this, Fu Rouyun felt tired and his legs hurt.
Mr. Fu: "Or maybe you're more interested in race walking? It's not like our family can't afford a coach, but we've never produced any good athletes."
Fu Rouyun took a deep breath and made a "stop" gesture.
But he is no longer the same person he used to be, he has changed qualitatively.
In order to become a mature person, Fu Rouyun's thoughts underwent a drastic awakening!
Mr. Fu: “?”
Fu Rouyun: "Mom, I'm sorry, it's my fault for smoking."
Mr. Fu: “……?”
Who still remembers that this was the first sentence they said since their cold war?
Fu Rouyun: "And you're right, running away from home is a childish act."
Mr. Fu: “…?”
Did she say that?
The sudden awakening of a rebellious teenager is like being hit on the head by a meteorite.
Mr. Fu was petrified and couldn't retract his jaw.
He continued to ponder, "Well, Dad is only 5'80" now, and you're 5'70. I'll inherit your excellent genes, so I can definitely grow to 5'80, and if I win the lottery, I can even reach 5'90."
After figuring out a satisfactory answer, Fu Rouyun straightened his back and returned to his room with his head held high.
Leaving the disheveled Mr. Fu standing there.
After a long while, she finally moved, holding on to her dear's shoulders and going to the balcony to see if the sun would rise from the west.
Fu Rouyun didn't care how shocked his parents were.
Of course he had more than one mobile phone. He went back to the bedroom and picked up a mobile phone with inherited cloud data. He took off his clothes and saved the numbers on his sleeves one by one into his mobile phone.
Checked it three times from front to back.
Checked four times from back to front.
The two words "Cen Xue" are arranged on the latest contact, which sounds really nice.
Fu Rouyun quickly sent a message: "Brother, I'm home. Thank you for today. When are you free? Let's make an appointment, okay? >_<"
Perhaps because she was free only after class, Cen Xue's reply came late.
Cen Xue: [I'm busy with graduation lately, so forget it. It's just a piece of cake, no need to thank me.]
Okay, declined.
It was expected and reasonable. Fu Rouyun closed his eyes and told himself that the situation was far from hopeless and there was still hope for everything to turn around.
But he didn't expect the turning point to come so quickly.
Before they could come up with a good excuse, Fu Rouyun and Cen Xue met for the second time on the first floor of the Fu family villa.
Coincidentally, during the autumn recruitment period, the Fu family recruited some new servants for management positions.
Today is the final interview. Several outstanding candidates who have been selected will gather in the living room on the first floor, waiting for the housekeeper's arrangements.
And Cen Xue, whom he had been thinking about all the time, was standing in the middle.
Even though he wasn't at the head of the group, he still stood out in front of the other people, and he made his simple and cheap black suit stand out, making people feel that he shouldn't be standing among the servants.
But beside the master.
The person next to the master is, of course, still the master.
*
Fu Rouyun hid on the second floor and peeped.
Why is Cen Xue here?!
He had searched for Cen Xue's school—there was a school badge on the canvas bag Cen Xue was carrying that day—and it was the top-ranked key school in the city, also well-known throughout the country.
Shouldn't such a top student be wearing a suit and working in various elite companies after graduation?
Now the clothes are right, but why is the location wrong?!
It shouldn't be.
"You like the one in the middle? He's very attractive."
Fu Rouyun was startled. It turned out that it was Mr. Fu standing behind him.
The one in the middle is Cen Xue.
Mr. Fu touched his chin and muttered to himself, "I didn't intend to recruit him."
Fu Rouyun: "Why!"
Now it was Mr. Fu's turn to be frightened. He glared at his older son and said, "He's too educated. Why would he be a servant?"
That was probably hopeless. Before Fu Rouyun could even feel heartbroken, he heard his mother continue, "What a shame, his family is quite pitiful. I've never seen anyone like him asking for a year's salary advance right away. Even the company's vice president wouldn't dare talk to me like that."
Fu Rouyun was very nervous: "Then he appeared here..."
"Oh, I agree."
The domineering CEO exuded a human-like radiance: "This child looks so lovable. I would feel bad if I didn't give him money."
Paying wages is just paying money anyway, so it’s better to recruit people.
With training and cultivation, he will be able to take over the family business.
Mr. Fu believes in metaphysics a bit, but he doesn't follow logic and focuses on his own feelings.
She has a circle of money trees in her study. When you touch them, you find they are all fake plastic potted plants, just for the purpose of accumulating more gold buffs. In a sense, they are immortal money trees that corporate spies cannot kill.
After thinking for a while, Fu Rouyun made his next decision.
"Mom, let me discuss that advance salary with you."
All of it came from the dividends from the fund under his name.
But monthly salary is still paid as usual.
Fu Rouyun firmly believed that there was a destiny between them.
Otherwise, why did they happen to meet when Cen Xue needed money so much, and why did he happen to have the ability to help him?
Moreover, Lu Yanxi and Yan Pei were not with him.
Everything is destined.
…
After Cen Xue joined the company, due to her education background and strength, she was not trained in the same way as ordinary servants. She was more like a trusted subordinate prepared for the heir Fu Rouyun.
The teasing about the young master playing with me also came from this.
But President Fu didn't expect that he was just soft-hearted for a moment - anyway, the advance salary was not paid by her, and the effect of Cen Xue joining the Fu family was so good!
Fu Rouyun has completely changed his personality!
Whose child's rebellious period ended abruptly? Ms. Fu can now proudly say that hers was the case.
All the changes came from Cen Xue. Mr. and Mrs. Fu loved Cen Xue and treated him differently.
Sometimes, even though they could clearly discuss things with Fu Rouyun himself, they were too lazy to look for him and directly contacted Cen Xue, because as long as Cen Xue came, there was no goal that Fu Rouyun could not accomplish.
Yes, it is that reassuring and trusting.
In three years, Fu Rouyun evolved from a piece of rotten wood to a piece of scrap that can become a pillar of the country.
Mr. Fu does not plan to let him go abroad. Even if the Fu family is rich, he cannot escape the unified examination.
After the college entrance examination, they did not hold a banquet for Fu Rouyun's coming-of-age ceremony. Instead, they invited all the servants in the Fu family to attend as the protagonists of the coming-of-age ceremony, and thanked them for their contributions to the family.
The Fu family was filled with the same atmosphere from top to bottom, and the loudest cheers came when Cen Xue's name was called.
No one dislikes Cen Xue.
Fu Rouyun saw that he, who usually never drank, had several drinks, and his skin turned red from his face to the back of his hands. He immediately became worried and kept an eye on his movements.
Seeing Cen Xue floating away from the crowd, Fu Rouyun hurriedly followed.
All the way to the roof.
The Fu family has two top floors, one is an open-air swimming pool, and the other is used for stargazing, where a telescope is stationed all year round.
As Fu Rouyun followed carefully, Cen Xue was fiddling with the telescope, looking for stars.
"elder brother?"
Cen Xue didn't turn around, and it was unclear whether she heard it or not.
He had no choice but to walk up to her, trying to let Cen Xue notice him.
But he just happened to see Cen Xue lowering her head and rubbing her eyes - a teardrop slipped down and hit the surface of his shoe.
Seeing a pair of shoes appear in her field of vision, Cen Xue was stunned for a moment and turned her head without any preparation.
"Brother, why are you crying?"
Fu Rouyun searched his body all over but couldn't find a piece of paper.
Cen Xue did not answer.
When he didn't say anything, Fu Rouyun felt very panicked. Today was clearly a day worth being happy about - his birthday!
"What happened? Are you too happy? Or are they too touching tonight?"
Fu Rouyun kept asking, determined to get an answer.
Cen Xue looked slightly tipsy and seemed to be listening attentively, but she didn't respond at all.
Until Fu Rouyun said: "--Could it be that you are reluctant to let me go to college and don't want to leave me?"
Cen Xue finally said, "Really?"
Fu Rouyun: "Which one is this 'is'?"
Suddenly, Cen Xue couldn't help but touch his face with her fingertips.
"Happy birthday."
He must have been completely drunk. His tone of voice was inexplicably soft, with a long trailing tone as if he was acting coquettishly, completely different from his usual gentle and indifferent demeanor.
Since Fu Rouyun came here, he has not shed another tear. Those pitiful crystal dots continued to appear in his eyes, wetting his eyelashes when he blinked, and there were some subtle flickering.
Fu Rouyun wondered what he needed a telescope for when the bright stars were right in front of his eyes.
I was just about to accept this blessing, but the rhythm of a drunk person is the most uncontrollable.
Soon, Cen Xue continued, "I don't know what the point of me staying in the Fu family is anymore... You don't need my tutoring anymore, so why should I be a servant again? But since I came here, I haven't done any work that a servant should do."
People have self-knowledge, this is what Cen Xue wants to express.
Fu Rouyun instinctively gave a soothing smile. He wanted to say no—
Everyone knows how important you are to me. Without you, my life would be even worse. Everyone has already considered you a family member and friend. As for my job as a mother, I have already made arrangements for you.
Then I heard Cen Xue say:
"These past few days I've been wondering when would be the best time to resign."
"But as soon as I saw you, I started to feel reluctant again...Have I ever told you that you look like a human when you smile?"
