Sun Shihong: ...
Fu Xingyun: ...
Perhaps it was because of something they thought of, but the area within half a meter around them fell silent.
Lin Qiong looked down at Fu Xingyun, her eyes blinking innocently.
He simply couldn't think of any words.
Fu Xingyun coughed and said, "Happy birthday, Elder Sun."
Sun Shihong's expression darkened, but since everyone around him was a host, he didn't say anything.
After exchanging pleasantries, Lin Qiong wisely pushed the other person away.
The lobby of the mansion was crowded with people. Lin Qiong, like a busy little bee, pushed Fu Xingyun through the crowd, making their way through the winding streets like a gluttonous snake.
Once they reached a less crowded food area, Lin Qiong looked at the people's expressions and asked, "Did I say something wrong just now?"
The man looked up at him, who kept his head down as if reflecting on his actions. "No."
He and Sun Shihong had only met a few times, and his presence today was merely a formality.
Lin Qiong breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Fu Xingyun glanced at him. Actually, he wasn't to blame him. There was nothing wrong with what he said. It was just that the old man had brought this upon himself.
Lin Qiong observed her surroundings; it turned out that wealthy people always threw such grand birthday parties.
Fu Xingyun: "What are you looking at?"
Lin Qiong was speechless for a moment: "This place is really big and impressive."
Fu Xingyun glanced at it but didn't think much of it; it seemed quite ordinary.
"envious?"
Lin Qiong scratched her head. "It's alright."
The surroundings are magnificent; he probably won't be able to afford to rent it even when he dies.
Thinking of his miserable past life, Lin Qiong sighed slightly, wondering if there was a small box containing him.
Fu Xingyun turned his head to look at the person; the young man's eyes were dim, and he was in low spirits.
I thought the other person was still feeling guilty for saying the wrong thing earlier.
Neither of them had eaten dinner today, and Lin Qiong was a little hungry, so she went to the food area and got two small pastries.
Holding a plate in front of Fu Xingyun, he asked, "Want some?"
Fu Xingyun glanced at it; he had never been a fan of sweets. "I won't eat it."
Lin Qiong said "Oh," and Fu Xingyun watched as the hand holding the pastries withdrew, revealing an indescribable sense of loneliness.
The man seemed to be in a low mood tonight. He tapped his finger on the wheelchair, then turned his head as if to say something.
The next moment, Lin Qiong was seen happily eating two pastries.
Fu Xingyun: ...
He's overthinking it.
Lin Qiong didn't notice that the other person didn't like sweets. Once, she made a sweet soup at home and the other person ate it all.
But we can't let people go hungry, otherwise who knows if that old cunning bastard will write it down in his Death Note.
Lin Qiong then bent down to secure the wheelchair, saying, "Wait for me."
He then turned and left.
When he returned, he was holding a white porcelain plate filled with food, mostly meat.
In these kinds of occasions, people usually just offer a token amount of food; the main purpose of attending is for networking and business.
For a moment, many people were looking at him, but Lin Qiong didn't care. However, he knew that Fu Xingyun was shy. Once the gazes on him had lessened, Lin Qiong walked over to him and handed him the food.
Lin Qiong looked at Fu Xingyun like an old father, "Eat something first, I'll cook for you when we get home."
Fu Xingyun curled his fingers and stared at the meat on the plate without making a move.
"Why aren't you eating?" Lin Qiong looked at him, wondering if he was craving his cooking.
Suddenly, a sense of pride welled up inside me.
The next moment, the man's deep voice rang out, "There are no cutlery."
"..." Lin Qiong, "Oh."
The lobby was bustling with noise.
"That cripple Fu Xingyun is here too?" Sun Jie's voice was filled with disbelief.
The person next to him said, "He's here. He just finished exchanging pleasantries with Master Sun."
"He has a strong mentality, even in that state he still comes out and wanders around aimlessly." The tone was tinged with a hint of disdain as she said, "Disgraceful."
Sun Jie and Fu Xingyun both attended a prestigious university abroad during their college years, where they developed a grudge. After returning to China, Fu Xingyun was at the height of his fame, and despite his strong dislike for Sun Jie, he had no choice but to put on a smiling face for him.
But now things are different. Fu Xingyun had an accident and is now a paralyzed man with hemiplegia. The Fu family doesn't value him and he's at the mercy of others.
Sun Jie's eyes gleamed with a sly light. "He came by himself today?"
A person nearby said, "No, he came with his male wife."
Sun Jie asked, "Male wife?"
The person next to him nodded. "They got married just a week ago, and the other person is a man."
Sun Jie burst into laughter, "So Fu Xingyun's got what he's got today?"
The other person laughed exaggeratedly, and seeing the person's wide-open mouth, the people next to them also laughed awkwardly.
Damn it, won't my jaw dislocate if I keep laughing like that?!
Won't it dislocate?!
As long as Fu Xingyun is not doing well, then he is doing well.
Sun Jie first went to Sun Shihong's place saying he wanted to go out for a walk, then turned around and began looking for Fu Xingyun.
It wasn't too hard to find; we found the person in a rather remote place.
Fu Xingyun was eating in her wheelchair, with a tall, upright man standing beside her.
Sun Jie stroked his chin, guessing that this was the male wife that the cripple Fu Xingyun had married.
The next moment, the young man turned around and went to get someone a glass of water from a short distance away.
Looking at Sun Jie's eyes, he realized the man was quite good-looking.
He was a man who didn't discriminate between men and women, and as he looked at the person standing next to Fu Xingyun, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.
The paralyzed man's wife was also to his liking; she managed to fool him so he could have his fun while also humiliating Fu Xingyun—killing two birds with one stone.
Sun Jie waited nearby for an opportunity to strike, and soon found one.
Lin Qiong accidentally smeared cream on her sleeve while eating, and only now did she realize that the clothes were quite expensive and it would be a pity to leave a mark if she didn't clean it up in time.
"I'm going to the restroom."
Fu Xingyun glanced at the person but said nothing.
As the others walked away, Sun Jie followed.
However, Lin Qiong had no sense of direction and ended up in the garden instead of finding the restroom.
Seeing that the scene was nice, Sun Jie straightened his clothes and slowly emerged from the flower bushes, casually plucking two flowers as he went.
Flowerbed: ...
Lin Qiong realized she was in the wrong place and turned to leave, but Sun Jie suddenly appeared and blocked her way.
Sun Jie, with a bright red bouquet of flowers dangling from his mouth, said, "Good evening."
Lin Qiong: ...
There are plenty of idiots in the world, but he never expected so many to surround him.
Out of politeness, Lin Qiong replied with a nonchalant, "Good evening."
He turned to leave as he spoke.
Sun Jie quickly blocked the person's path, saying, "I'd like to get to know you."
Then, without giving the person a chance to refuse, he asked, "Do you know who I am?"
He had seen this man before; he was next to Grandpa Sun and called him "Grandpa." He was thinking about the strange generational naming system in their family.
"I know," Lin Qiong smiled confidently, "Grandson."
"..."
Sun Jie gritted his teeth, speechless with anger at the other party's words.
But thinking about his purpose, he didn't say anything in the end, and slowly said, "My name is Sun Jie."
"Oh, hello Sun Jie," Lin Qiong said. "Excuse me, how do I get to the restroom?"
Sun Jie: "Can we talk about something else later? I'd like to learn more about you, but I don't know your name yet."
Lin Qiong turned around, "Fine, don't tell me then."
Sun Jie: !
"Don't go!"
As if afraid the person would leave, he said, "Tell me your name, and I'll tell you where the restroom is."
Lin Qiong: ...Never mind if I don't know.
Seeing that the person remained silent for a long time, Sun Jie asked suspiciously, "Don't you have any feelings for me?"
Lin Qiong looked at him with disdain. "No."
Sun Jie: "It's okay if you don't have it. It's enough that I have you. You can start to understand me from today."
As she spoke, she handed the flower she was holding in her mouth to Lin Qiong, saying, "You are as beautiful as the moonlight tonight. This flower is for you."
Lin Qiong looked up at the sky; there was no moon tonight.
He shook his head, clearly indicating he didn't want to accept it.
Sun Jie didn't give up, holding the flowers closer to the person, "Take them, I'm infatuated with you."
"What are you shy about? Is it because no one has ever given you flowers before?"
Lin Qiong looked at him, wondering which of his eyes had noticed that he was shy.
"No need, my grave will grow taller in the future."
Sun Jie: ...
"It's alright if you don't want to accept it." He tossed the flower in his hand aside and looked at Lin Qiong. "But you should know that our meeting today is fate."
"A tragic fate?"
"..."
Sun Jie gritted his teeth, not expecting the person in front of him to be so difficult to deal with, and his jaw clenched tightly for a moment.
Lin Qiong didn't want to waste any more time here, so she turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, a force came from her shoulder, and Lin Qiong was pushed against the wall.
"Slap—" Sun Jie pressed one arm against the wall, imagining his dashing figure as he performed a wall slam.
Just as I was about to say something, the person in front of me ducked down and slipped through the gap.
After Lin Qiong came out, she moved as quickly as if she had used Flash, without even turning her head.
Back inside the mansion, Lin Qiong wandered around twice before finally finding the restroom.
Sitting in the lobby, Fu Xingyun glanced at the time; more than twenty minutes had passed since the other party left.
Suddenly recalling his wife's bizarre sense of direction on their wedding day, the man's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand to turn his wheelchair.
Lin Qiong was cleaning her sleeves in the bathroom when the door opened and closed, and she looked up to see the lunatic from the garden walk in.
Lin Qiong frowned slightly. It was the first time they had met and they weren't familiar with each other, so she couldn't understand why the other person was haunting her.
The person entered but did not speak immediately. Instead, they stood at the outermost urinal and whistled.
Lin Qiong glanced at him sideways, wondering what strange fetish the other person had that made him want people to watch him go to the toilet.
This time, Sun Jie abandoned his usual glib talk from the garden and went straight to the point: "You are the new male wife of that cripple Fu Xingyun."
Lin Qiong's eyes widened immediately upon hearing the form of address used by the other person.
How daring!
Someone actually dared to address Fu Xingyun like that.
Seeing people glancing at him, Sun Jie continued, "I've heard people say that you married that cripple for money, but now that he's fallen from power, your marriage is a losing proposition."
“But I’m different. I can give you anything you want, and…” He looked Lin Qiong up and down, “that cripple can’t satisfy you either, so you might as well come with me.”
Lin Qiong shook her head after hearing this; the other person was still too young.
Seeing the other person shake his head, Sun Jie was clearly discouraged. "Why? What do I lack compared to him?"
Lin Qiong turned her head away, "You'd better not ask."
He can't exactly say that Fu Xingyun will turn things around and take over your Dou Sha, can he?
However, the other party persisted, saying, "No, you have to give me a reason!"
Lin Qiong looked the other person up and down, then her gaze lingered on his lower body. "My husband's penis is huge."

Fu Xingyun outside the door: ...
