Chapter 138 Extra 1: Childhood 2
Childhood 2
After an afternoon, Fu Yian felt that he had some talent in taking care of children, and Yu Cheng had become much closer to him.
But the harmonious atmosphere only lasted until the evening.
The housekeeper knocked on the door to remind Fu Yi'an to eat. Fu Yi'an stood up, took Yu Cheng's hand and walked to the door of the restaurant, only to suddenly remember that he was not the only one living in the old house now.
Pushing open the door of the restaurant, I saw five people already sitting on both sides of the huge long table.
They were all young teenagers, and the youngest one looked to be about the same age as Yu Cheng.
These are the Fu family children who are temporarily living in the old house.
It is now June. Fu Yishao, the oldest among them, is at home during his freshman summer vacation. The rest of them are attending private junior and senior high schools and will not have their vacation for a few more days.
Several of the children were day students, and today was just like any other day. After being picked up by the driver after school, they went home and prepared to eat.
Several teenage boys were chatting, but they all fell silent the moment they heard the restaurant door being pushed open.
The Fu family has strict education. Children are not allowed to talk while eating or sleeping, especially in front of the genius second brother who always has a sullen face.
They thought they would have dinner as usual today, but the smiles on the faces of the people sitting at the table faded after they saw the other figure being held by Fu Yian.
In their impression, Fu Yian is definitely not an easy brother to get along with.
He always likes to be alone and never takes the initiative to get close to any of his brothers.
But at this moment, Fu Yian was holding a strange boy in his hands.
Someone they had never met before.
For a moment, the eyes of the five people in the room all fell on Yu Cheng.
Yu Cheng subconsciously hid behind Fu Yian.
Feeling that his clothes were being tightened at the back of his waist, Fu Yian's body stiffened slightly, then slowly relaxed.
The rectangular dining table is large and can seat at least a dozen people.
Fu Yian led Yu Cheng into the restaurant and arranged him at an empty seat on the side. He subconsciously returned to his seat.
The table was very long and his seat was far away from Yu Cheng.
Fu Yian felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on what it was.
In his previous life, he also sat in the head seat at home, and habit made Fu Yian fail to immediately notice the inconsistency.
Yu Cheng sat at the end of the table. He lowered his eyelashes, looked at the dishes in front of him, and said nothing.
Fu Yishao sat next to Fu Yian. He glanced at the strange boy who suddenly appeared in his home, and touched Fu Yian's arm with his arm.
"This is..."
Fu Yian looked at Yu Cheng and said calmly: "This is Yu Cheng. He will live at home from now on. You can just treat him as your brother."
The people at the table looked at each other; no one spoke a word. The meal was hundreds of times quieter than usual.
After the others had finished eating and left, Fu Yian stood up from the table and walked to Yu Cheng who was sitting at the end.
Fu Yian noticed that Yu Cheng ate his meal very carefully, and it could even be said that he only ate the rice in his own bowl.
The rectangular table could not be rotated. The chef at home knew the position of each young master and placed dishes of their favorite flavors in front of them. Only in front of Yu Cheng was a dish that was added on the spur of the moment.
He didn't know Yu Cheng's taste, but based on Yu Cheng's performance tonight, he thought he didn't like the cheese, ham and corn cheese in front of him.
The shadow of another person fell on him. Yu Cheng raised his head slightly and met Fu Yian's gaze.
"Are you full?"
Fu Yian looked at the empty bowl of rice in front of Yu Cheng and asked.
Yu Cheng swallowed and nodded.
"I'm full."
Fu Yian looked at the chopsticks still tightly clenched in his hand and knew at a glance that Yu Cheng was lying.
But he didn't ask much, because Yu Cheng's personality was sensitive and self-deprecating.
The seats for dining were all arranged, and as he had been taught strict etiquette since childhood, he could not give special attention to Yu Cheng at the dinner table.
Fu Yian just planned to ask the kitchen to turn on the stove for Yu Cheng after dinner in the future.
He reached out his hand to Yu Cheng: "I was negligent tonight and didn't tell you in advance that there was someone else at home."
"Want to go? I'll take you to your sleeping room."
Yu Cheng's hand holding the chopsticks moved, hesitated for a moment, then put down the chopsticks and placed his hand on Fu Yian's palm.
Fu Yian was puzzled when he saw Yu Cheng's hesitation at that moment.
He originally thought that Yu Cheng had not left and was waiting for him, but now it seems that is not the case.
There was a thoughtful look in Fu Yian's eyes.
He took Yu Cheng upstairs, not the second floor as before, but a higher floor.
Fu Yian led Yu Cheng to stop outside a room on the third floor. When they opened the door, they saw a suite that had already been arranged.
He lowered his head and looked at Yu Cheng who had just reached his chest. He didn't know why Yu Cheng became silent and timid again after a meal.
"This will be your room from now on."
Yu Cheng raised his head and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing and just nodded to show that he understood.
Fu Yian brought Yu Cheng in and taught him how to use the things in the room, how to adjust the air conditioner, and how to use the shower.
Yu Cheng didn't say a word, just stood obediently behind him, carefully imitating the movements he taught. Although he was clumsy and stiff, he did it right, and he took all his words seriously and remembered them in his heart.
Fu Yian looked at the tiny Yu Cheng, and his frowning brows softened.
He touched Yu Cheng's head.
After making sure that Yu Cheng was able to live alone in the room, Fu Yian turned around and prepared to leave.
Just as he took a step, the corner of his clothes was suddenly pulled.
Fu Yian looked back.
Yu Cheng lowered his head, and he could only see the round whorl of hair on Yu Cheng's head.
“Are they the people closest to you?”
The young man spoke in a low voice, his fingers carefully grasping the corner of his clothes, but grasping it very tightly, as if he was grabbing the only person he could rely on.
And he was just an outsider who was suddenly thrust in to hinder the team's progress.
Fu Yian was slightly stunned.
I didn't expect Yu Cheng to be so sensitive.
He suddenly remembered that in the fleeting plot, it seemed to be described that the Yu family had a lot of children, and Yu Cheng was bullied by many children after losing his father's love.
Is Yu Cheng afraid that the Fu family will bully him when he is not around?
Fu Yian turned around, squatted in front of Yu Cheng, and placed his hand on Yu Cheng's shoulder.
"It may be a little unfair to say this, but I care about you more than anyone else in my family."
Yu Cheng met those light-colored eyes, which looked clearly cold, yet he saw an indescribable tenderness in an instant.
Emotions overwhelmed reason, and no matter how hard he pretended, he seemed unable to resist everything about the person in front of him.
I couldn't even raise the most basic sense of defense in front of him.
