Chapter 114
"elder brother?"
It was not just a bolt from the blue, it was more like a tsunami. A huge wave swept Fu Zhan into the sea, and he was crashing into a pile of unknown debris, his mind in a state of confusion.
"It's my brother," Jiang Yi saw that he looked strange and asked, "Are you okay? Hello?"
"It's okay," Fu Zhan gritted his teeth and said these two words.
Brother, it turns out to be my brother.
What a good brother!
Fu Zhan already understood why Xiao Maotuan wanted to break up.
Are you waiting for him to expose his identity as a boy instead of breaking up with him? !
At this moment, Jiang Yi did not move forward, but looked at the man suspiciously.
"Looking at me like that, do I have something on my face?" Fu Zhan said in a slightly ruffian tone.
"No," Jiang Yi thought for a while and asked, "I said I saw the puppy several times before. Do you know what the puppy is here for?"
At first, he thought his brother was "dead", so his brother's friend sent his dog to deliver the money out of sympathy. Now his brother is back, and when he asked, his brother said that he earned the money himself. He guessed that his brother had some reasons, so he asked the dog for help. But the dog was not a stray dog, it must have an owner, so the brother must be friends with the owner of the dog if he could command the dog.
But the puppy owner behaved differently than he expected.
Knowing that the puppy had been to their house, didn’t they guess that he was their older brother’s younger brother and feel surprised?
Jiang Yi's sudden alertness was all over his face.
Fu Zhan combined the fact that Xiaomaotuan loved money, had a job, always carried a small bag when going out, and had a few wads of cash missing every now and then, and said, "Here to give me money."
That's right!
Jiang Yi smiled again.
He led the two men into the house, politely poured them some water, told them the time the puppy had been here, and then asked, "Has it run away now? How long has it been away from home?"
"More than three hours," Fu Zhan made up a random time. "Since I didn't come to your house, I'll look for it somewhere else later."
"Well, it's so smart, maybe it has already gone home, but I will help keep an eye out for it. If I see it, I'll have my brother contact you."
"Okay," Fu Zhan nodded slightly. The student in front of him regarded him as his brother's friend, so he naturally couldn't ask his brother's name directly. Who wouldn't even know the name of their friend? He looked at Jiang Yi and asked indirectly, "What's your name?"
"Jiang Yi."
Suddenly, everything in front of my eyes went dark again.
If he remembered correctly, among the three roommates in Zhou's dormitory, one was called Jiang Ling. After a long time, all four dogs were in one nest.
Before they had sat there for seven or eight minutes, Fu Zhan had already gotten everything he wanted to know out of it, and then said goodbye to his brother with a fake smile: "I have to go look for the dog, I'm leaving now."
"So soon?" Jiang Yi raised his phone, "I'm calling my brother."
Fu Zhan: “?”
Jiang Yi: "It's connected."
"Hello?" Jiang Ling's voice came from the phone. He had just separated from Qiu Zijie. Zijie was going to the bookstore, and he was about to go back to his mother's store.
Jiang Yi said: "Brother! There are guests at home, your friend, driving a super cool sports car, and he is also very handsome!"
"......" Jiang Ling knew who it was.
"Brother, can you say a few words to your friend?"
Jiang Ling was silent.
The unexpected connection and deathly silence.
Jiang Yi handed the phone to Fu Zhan: "Do you want to talk to my brother?"
Fu Zhan: “….”
I feel mixed emotions.
Fu Zhan lowered the corners of his lips, snorted coldly, and left.
Jiang Yi was confused and said to the person on the phone, "Brother, your friend left and his expression was weird. Did you make him angry because you didn't say hello?"
"I guess you talk too much," Jiang Ling said, "What did you say to him?"
"We talked about you asking his dog to help deliver money, and then described the small bag the dog was carrying. He asked about your condition, and I said you had recovered well, except that you had a problem with jumping. Finally, he praised your live broadcast and said you looked beautiful in women's clothes. He was telling the truth, so I had to follow suit and praise your natural beauty."
Okay, now the truth is out.
"Xiao Yi, I advise you to go back to school early today, otherwise I can't help but beat you up."
"Why???"
"Because of all the astronomy and geography, hold on tight and run."
After delivering the takeaway order to the store, Jiang Yi turned around and fled into the school. He immediately realized that this rich and handsome guy was most likely the one who was dumped by his brother.
*
He was very anxious when he came, and when he left, Fu Zhan returned to the big villa with a lot of anger in his heart. The depression in his heart not only did not dissipate at all, but became more and more intense. He had no place to vent his depression, and it was about to make him explode.
Fu Zhan was furious, and threw his car keys and phone away with a hint of anger: "Xiao Zhou, bring me two large jugs of water with ice!"
"Okay, Fourth Master, right away!" Xiao Zhou immediately ran to the kitchen.
The second child took the husky out for a walk after returning from the pastry shop. He stayed at home since it was his day off. He glanced at his younger brother and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so angry?"
"Eat a nuclear bomb!"
"No wonder."
"Here it comes," Xiao Zhou held two glasses of ice water, "Fourth Master, your water."
Fu Zhan drank the water in one gulp, and poured the ice into his mouth, chewing it with a crunching sound: "I'll go cool down a bit."
Grabbing the back of his collar with his backhand, he pulled off his shirt and walked to the gym at home shirtless. The gym was not smaller than the living room, and half of it was filled with regular sports equipment, usually similar to a boxing club, with a ring, sandbags...
Too lazy to bandage or warm up, Fu Zhan just picked up a pair of boxing gloves and started venting his anger.
He had never expected that his wife would be a boy.
Boy, Jiang Ling...
Depend on!
"You usually don't take anything to heart, and few people can make you so angry," Fu Yu came to the gym, holding the whiskey glass loosely, "Did your little fur ball find it? Were you provoked by her?"
"Yes, my roommate on Sunday," Fu Zhan said without hiding it from his second brother, punching the sofa hard, "He's a man!"
"Oh," the ending tone just rose slightly, not a big surprise.
"Second brother, why aren't you surprised at all!"
The swinging sandbag flew back. Fu Zhan raised his hand, blocked the sandbag with his forearm, and looked at his second brother.
Fu Yu took a sip of wine and said slowly, "Your little fur ball has lied to you time and time again, and his gender is also different. What's so surprising? You should be thankful that he is not an alien."
“........”
Fu Zhan put his hands down and continued punching, treating the sandbag as Jiang Ling: "I, Fu Zhan, have never been played like this in my life. If I don't get this back, I won't be called Fu!"
"Are you willing to give it up?" Fu Yu raised his eyebrows.
"Why would I be reluctant? Didn't he break up with me? Who the hell is he to me?"
Fu Yu didn't quite believe him. From the information he checked about his roommates that week, Jiang Ling was no pushover. It was hard to say whether his brother would succeed in collecting the debt or be controlled to death in the end.
It was rare that he showed some pity and gave his brother face: "I'm optimistic about you."
....
manor.
The venue was prepared, the teacher was invited, Song Xingqi had to study and listened carefully until dinner at the manor in the evening. But because he had to go back to school on the weekend, after dinner, Fu Chen sent him directly to the school gate, and reminded him that he could call him if he encountered any trouble.
"I understand Fu Chen," Song Xingqi, who had studied for an afternoon, had lost her fantasy about men and looked a little depressed.
"How do you feel today?" Fu Chen asked again.
If you feel the effect is good this week, you can continue with the arrangement next weekend.
Song Zhouqi said honestly: "I have to study even on my days off. I have studied enough."
“........”
"Fu Chen, will you still arrange something for me next weekend?" Song Xingqi asked, "If you want to arrange it, it may not be possible. I'm a little busy next weekend."
“........”
"I have to go to school again. Goodbye Fu Chen."
Song Zhouqi opened the door, went downstairs and ran away.
Huh, a gust of evening breeze blew by, carrying the fallen leaves. The man was sitting in the car and didn't have time to get out to say a few more words to Zhou Xing.
Not long after Song Xingqi returned to school, Sheng Xiaoxing also finished his part-time job for a day. He met Qiu Zijie who had returned at the school gate. The two entered the school together. Jiang Ling was still helping his mother in the store. He had a bad feeling that Fu Zhan would come to the store to cause trouble.
After a few waves of people came in the evening, the store became deserted again. Liang Qian selected some bread, packed it up and stuffed it into her son's hand: "Lingling, you should go back to school soon. Don't you have evening self-study tonight? Hurry up and take the bus. Take the bread back and share it with your classmates."
"Don't worry, mom. I'll be in time. I'll take the bus at 5:30 and be at school in 10 minutes. I won't be late."
"The time can't be so tight."
As he was talking, a sports car drove outside the store.
Jiang Ling looked familiar.
Fu Zhan is here.
He vented his anger at home, and his mind was much calmer than before, but he hadn't figured out how to deal with Jiang Ling. But just because he couldn't figure it out didn't mean he had to hold back his anger. He had to go and ask for a few words to gain some advantage, and then see how the little fur ball looked guilty.
The glass door was pushed open, Fu Zhan took off his sunglasses, glanced at Jiang Ling's face coldly, and asked: "What kind of bread is delicious in your store? Can you introduce it to me?"
“Hello, our store....”
Liang Qian wanted to go forward to greet them, but Jiang Ling stopped her mother: "Mom, didn't you say you wanted to clean up the kitchen? Go ahead and do that. I'll take care of the guests."
"Then go back to school quickly after you finish greeting them." Liang Qian reminded again and again.
"I know," Jiang Ling said.
Putting his sunglasses on his collar and his hands in his trouser pockets, Fu Zhan slowly paced around the bread display cabinet and his eyes fell on a certain bread: "What is this?"
“This is what puff pastry looks like when it’s baked crispy.”
"Oh," he hummed, "I thought it was wearing a mask, layer upon layer, and I had to peel it off to know what was inside."
This is an insinuation. Jiang Ling rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't like this bread, you can look at something else. There's no need to be so persistent."
"That's it," Fu Zhan narrowed his eyes, turned his head and looked at Jiang Ling steadily, "I really have to compete with him."
Jiang Ling brought a tray and tongs and asked, "How many do you want?"
Fu Zhan smiled: "Just one."
"Okay, two thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight for one."
There was another employee in the store who had just come out to arrange the remaining bread. When he heard this, his eyes widened. My goodness, has the young boss gone crazy? !
"Robbery???" Fu Zhan said angrily.
Jiang Ling sneered: "Can't afford it?"
"What about motivating me?"
"So what?"
"Which bread is so expensive that it's filled with gold?!"
"Bread is not expensive," Jiang Ling said, "but my labor costs are high. In a barber shop, different stylists have different prices. It's the same in our bakery. The manager will serve you personally, so naturally there will be labor costs."
"Oh, a black shop."
"Yes, when I slaughter pigs, the fatter they are, the harder I kill them."
“..........”
Fu Zhan could tell that the little fur ball was not only evil-hearted, but also dared to call him a pig. This was outrageous!
Their eyes met, and the lightning flashing from their eyes crackled in the air, fighting fiercely, the sky was dark, the sun and moon were dim, the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked...
"You and I are calculating labor costs, and I'm calculating mental damages." The eye-to-eye battle continued, and the verbal battle could not be stopped. Fu Zhan moved closer to Jiang Ling, and with his 1.93-meter height, he looked down at the 1.76-meter Jiang Ling, with their noses just a fraction of a second apart. "My mental damages are 100 million, and I'll give you a discount, 50 million."
Fu Zhan has the whole picture of the boy in his eyes, handsome and sharp.
But he would never be soft-hearted just because the little fur ball was a little pretty!
"What mental loss have you suffered?" Jiang Ling refused to be outdone.
"Isn't it time for me to get due compensation after you cheated on me?" He spoke each word with emphasis.
At this point, Jiang Ling didn't hide anything anymore and said with a smile: "Didn't I ask you at the beginning that you didn't mind that I'm a man? Did you forget it so quickly? Is your memory only seven seconds?"
"......." He became fierce.
"Did I lie to you, or did you misunderstand?"
“…” It seemed impossible to refute.
"He always buys little skirts and hairpins. He is obviously a little male dog but he is forced to wear skirts every day. Who do you think is suffering more mentally?"
“.......”
"Say it!" Jiang Ling poked the man's chest with his finger.
Fu Zhan was speechless.
Jiang Ling was about to continue when Liang Qian came out. She didn't hear clearly what was going on inside, but she vaguely realized that her son seemed to be chattering non-stop. So when she saw this, she was shocked. How could he treat customers like this!
"You bastard! What are you doing?" Liang Qian slapped her son on the arm. "How can you receive guests like that?"
"Mom," Jiang Ling grinned and hugged his arm, "It hurts!"
"Do you feel the pain? Then do you know you are in the wrong?" Liang Qian raised her hand, pretending to do it again.
Fu Zhan's heart moved, and he reached out to hold Jiang Ling: "Auntie, we are friends, Xiaomao... Jiang Ling was joking with me. It was just a joke."
"Friend?" Liang Qian looked at Jiang Ling.
"Ah, yes, yes..."
Liang Qian glared at her son.
Jiang Ling put on a good attitude: "We are friends, Mom, don't worry, just go and get busy."
"Then you guys continue chatting," Liang Qian invited Fu Zhan to sit down, and then walked away.
Jiang Ling glanced at Fu Zhan's arms that were still around him, then raised his eyes again: "Why are you protecting me like this?"
"You think too much," Fu Zhan let go of his hand.
"That's good, otherwise I would have thought you couldn't let me go."
"Tsk," Fu Zhan laughed, his tone asking for trouble. "I'm the fourth young master of the Fu family. Everyone knows that I like women and have no interest in boys. Even if everyone in the world is bent like a mosquito coil, I'm still the straight one, straight as a rock!"
"I think so," Jiang Ling said, "Now that we have made it clear, I don't owe you anything, and you have no interest in me. Can we part ways amicably?"
These words hurt Fu Zhan, as if his heart was stabbed by a knife.
Two words squeezed out from between his teeth.
"Don't even think about it."
