3.
The word "friend" used to feel very distant to Ye Suidong.
In a post-apocalyptic world, there is no such thing as true friendship. The person who smiles at you one second might stab you in the next.
But the little boy in front of her was different from the people in the apocalypse.
From that day on, Ye Suidong had his first friend.
--
Fang Jingyao loves to eat, and he often brings her food from school.
In the past, Fang Jingyao would always awkwardly stuff things into her hands, but after they became more familiar, he would always put things on her table directly and generously, and would even tell her to eat more.
Of all the foods, Ye Suidong's favorite is the fried noodles with soybean paste made by Fang Jingyao's mother.
Fang Jingyao's mother is a very gentle woman, and she treats Fang Jingyao very well.
The word "motherly love" is too distant for Ye Suidong.
Her first mother died shortly after her birth, and she didn't even know what her mother looked like.
Needless to say, Ye Suidong never regarded Ye Qushui as his mother.
Ye Suidong originally thought that he might never understand what maternal love really was.
But in Fang Jingyao's mother, she saw the embodiment of maternal love.
She really liked Fang Jingyao's mother's demeanor, so when Fang Jingyao's mother invited her to film a video together, Ye Suidong did not refuse.
This world has many high-tech advancements, and there are many ways to make money.
Ye Suidong earned some money by making videos, and she was also very good at making money work for her.
However, she is too young now, making it a bit troublesome to do.
Besides going to school, she has many other things to do every day.
Fang Jingyao seemed much more relaxed than her. He spent every day by her side, figuring out what to feed her and where to take her.
This continued until Fang Jingyao went abroad.
Fang Jingyao's mother was going abroad to study, so Fang Jingyao naturally had to go with her.
Before leaving, Fang Jingyao left her a key to the house.
Fang Jing wanted to tell her that if she got tired of staying at the Ye family's house, she could go stay there.
Ye Suidong knew that Fang Jingyao was worried that she would be wronged by Ye Qushui.
After all, she is still very young, and she can't even stay in a hotel.
After Fang Jingyao left, Ye Suidong belatedly realized that over the years she had grown accustomed to Fang Jingyao being by her side. Sometimes she would involuntarily look to her right, but now it was empty.
However, this feeling did not last long, because after Fang Jingyao settled down abroad, he would call her whenever he had time, and even left his pocket money for her.
In contrast, she was the one who didn't have time.
During the years Fang Jingyao spent abroad, she secretly started her own company.
She can't use her real identity now, so she has a lot of troubles, and sometimes she's so busy that she doesn't even have time to call Fang Jingyao.
Fang Jingyao naturally knew that her busy schedule meant she wanted more money.
Fang Jingyao never asked her why she worked so hard to make money.
One evening, Ye Suidong returned home and received a text message saying that someone had intermittently transferred several hundred thousand yuan into her bank account.
Without even thinking, Ye Suidong immediately made a video call to Fang Jingyao.
Compared to her exhaustion, Fang Jingyao on the other end of the video call always seemed full of energy.
Ye Suidong really enjoys seeing Fang Jingyao. Seeing his smiling eyes always makes Ye Suidong feel relaxed.
The extra money in her card was naturally transferred to her by Fang Jingyao.
Ye Suidong didn't originally want to, but Fang Jingyao on the other end of the phone deliberately looked at her angrily.
"You know I don't spend much money outside. You can keep this money for yourself."
"Look at you! It's obvious you haven't been eating properly lately. You look so haggard. Let me tell you, you're at the age where you're growing. If you don't eat properly now, you'll definitely become very thin and unattractive later!"
"I had some delicious lobster and beef here before. I bought some, and I'll have someone send it to you when I get back to China!"
Seeing Fang Jingyao's vivid expression, Ye Suidong drank the milk Fang Jingyao had sent her, and replied with a smile, "Okay."
Although Ye Suidong's expression wasn't obvious, Fang Jingyao could still sense that Ye Suidong was somewhat unhappy.
He paused for a moment, then asked softly, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
The business world is like a battlefield, and many things are not so easy for Ye Suidong.
Recently, her mood has indeed been a bit off, and she even has many bad thoughts in her mind.
But every time such a thought arises, she thinks of Fang Jingyao.
"No," Ye Suidong said simply, brushing it off.
The boy in the video is chattering away, sharing his experiences abroad.
The once quiet and cold room seemed to have become a bit more lively.
Ye Suidong sipped her fragrant milk, quietly watching the boy on her phone.
She thought, the world isn't so bad after all.
At least there's Fang Jingyao.
