Chapter 6

They went out in the evening. After leaving the parking lot, Fu Xiangze drove in another direction. Bian Li looked out the window and asked in confusion, “Isn’t this the direction to my uncle’s house?”

“My uncle just called and asked me to pick up your brother.”

“My brother isn’t home?”

“Yeah, emergency.”

“All right.”

It is now the rush hour after get off work. There is a constant stream of traffic on the road, with cars stopping and starting frequently. Bian Li leaned against the window, looking at the bustling scene outside and fell into deep thought.

Fu Xiangze stopped at the traffic light, looked at the long stream of cars ahead, turned around and saw Bian Li staring out the window in a daze.

He found that she seemed to like daydreaming and there was an envious look in her eyes.

He looked in the direction she was going and saw a family of three walking on a busy street. The young mother would stop from time to time to play with the child beside her. Everything seemed warm and happy.

Fu Xiangze knew that she had lived with her uncle and aunt since she was a child. He never asked about her parents because he felt that it seemed to be a wound that she didn’t want to talk about. I didn’t want to tear open her wound again in order to understand her.

He hoped that one day, she would take the initiative to tell him when she wanted to.

The light turned green, Fu Xiangze turned several streets and stopped in front of a row of shops. Bian Li watched him get out of the car and enter the shops.

I don’t know what he said to that person, but then he took out several large bags and put them directly in the trunk.

When they got to the hospital, Fang Yixing called, “Fu Xiangze, why haven’t you come yet?”

“arrive.”

After that, Fu Xiangze parked the car directly in front of Fang Yixing and rolled down the window. Fang Yixing hung up the phone, opened the car door and got in like a big shot.

Bian Li turned around and looked at his cousin, “Brother, didn’t you say you wanted to take a rest today?”

“I was called back.” There was an imperceptible fatigue on Fang Yixing’s handsome face.

“Oh.” Bian Li handed him a bottle of water, “Drink some.”

Fang Yixing took it, opened it and took a big sip, then asked, “Fu Xiangze, when will you return to the base?”

“Probably more than a month of rest.”

“It just so happens that you have time to take care of my sister.”

Fu Xiangze took the time to look at Bian Li in the rearview mirror and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“You said that you are a grown man but you are not at home all year round. Who do you think you married?” Fang Yixing criticized Fu Xiangze as soon as he got in the car.

Bian Li was also confused and wanted to stop him, shouting, “Brother, he is busy…”

Fang Yixing said quickly, “Don’t stop me. I won’t have a chance to speak when we get home. I want to finish what I want to say outside.”

Fu Xiangze, “…” As far as he could remember, when he first went to Fang Yixing’s house, he knew that his family status was not high, but he didn’t expect that now he doesn’t even have a say.

“What are you laughing at? If it weren’t for my parents protecting you, you would have been beaten by me.”

Fu Xiangze, “Tell me, what’s the matter?”

“You’ve been married for a year, and it’s fine if you don’t come back, but you don’t even call me to check on me, your sister… Is this marriage interesting?

Also, during the time you were away, my sister got sick and was hospitalized, but no one came to care for her. But your mother…”

Bian Li interrupted immediately, “Brother…Brother…”

Fang Yixing, “Don’t keep calling me.”

“That’s us,”

Then, Bian Li opened the car door at lightning speed, followed by a loud bang, and then opened the back seat and immediately pulled his brother out of the car.

Bian Li pulled his brother and said, “Come on, I have something to tell you.” Fang Yixing couldn’t help but stagger a few steps, “Slow down, don’t pull me, I haven’t finished speaking yet. … I didn’t expect you, a woman, to have so much strength.”

Bian Li’s cheeks were slightly red. “Okay, or I’ll go talk to my aunt later.”

Fang Yixing, “His family is so bad, I can’t say anything about them. When did you start to protect him so much? Bian Li, is your elbow broken?”

“Oh, let’s go.”

At this time, Fu Xiangze kept looking at them. What did he mean? Sick?

My aunt heard the voice and came out. When she saw Fu Xiangze, she immediately shouted happily, “Xiangze.”

Fu Xiangze immediately shouted, “Aunt.”

He went to the trunk and took out the supplements he had just bought, and said, “Aunt, this is what I bought for you and uncle.”

My aunt led the man into the house and said, “Now that you’re here, you’re so polite.” Then she let him sit on the sofa and handed him some fruit.

At this time, my uncle came out of the kitchen and asked with a simple smile, “Xiang Ze is here?”

“Uncle, do you need help?” Seeing his uncle’s apron, he took off his clothes and was about to help.

His aunt stopped him and said, “You are not needed. Sit down and rest for a while. You must be tired from the journey.” While bringing food to Fu Xiangze, his aunt directed Bian Li and Fang Yixing.

“Bian Li, Fang Yixing, you two are already grown up, can’t you go to the kitchen and help?”

Originally, the two were chatting in the corner, trying to minimize their presence, but my aunt couldn’t bear to see them sitting around doing nothing.

After Bian Li and Fang Yixing looked at each other for a few seconds, they walked to the kitchen with their heads down…

Fu Xiangze looked in the direction of Bian Li and Fang Yixing, and couldn’t help but smile slightly…

Afterwards, Fu Xiangze saw through the clean glass that the two people inside were working while lowering their heads and mumbling to themselves.

After saying a few words, Fang Yixing looked in the direction of Fu Xiangze again… with a provocative look.

Fang Yixing muttered beside Bian Li, “I really don’t know who their son is.”

Bian Li was also unconvinced, “I really don’t know who their niece is. Tell me, why do uncle and aunt like him so much?”

Fang Yixing thought about it and came to a conclusion, “Isn’t it because he studies well? You know, my mother likes handsome and good-looking people. The key is that Fu Xiangze has another skill.”

Bian Li was a little confused and asked blankly, “What?”

“He can fly a plane and write.”

Bian Li seemed to disagree, “No way? Then we two are not bad either.” At least my cousin and I were admitted in a legitimate way.

“It’s quite different, okay? Have you forgotten that when we were kids, we were punished to stand in the corner together because we only got 10 points in math?”

Bian Li seemed to be thinking about something. “Oh…it seems to be true, but it seems to be you, right?”

“You have 20 points. Can you be better than me?”

Bian Li looked at his silly brother with a dull look on his face, “It seems so.”

Fang Yixing continued, “What’s more, he has always been the top student in the exams since he was young, and he is still the top student in the team now.”

Bian Li was a little shocked, “Ah… Is he so powerful?” He turned his head and glanced at Fu Xiangze. He really didn’t realize it…

Fang Yixing said proudly, “It’s only a little bit powerful…”

Fang Yixing continued to recall, “Do you still remember the scene when you brought him back to meet my parents before you got the marriage certificate?”

Bian Li thought for a moment and said, “Hmm. What’s wrong?”

“You didn’t see the expression on my mother’s face when she looked at Fu Xiangze. She was smiling from ear to ear.

He also said, I thought that Li Li’s future husband would be good, but I didn’t expect that she would bring back such a young and pretty boyfriend.

He’s handsome, smart, and can fly a plane. Oh… he’s definitely my dream son-in-law.”

Bian Li laughed and said, “You are exaggerating. How come I didn’t hear it?”

“That’s because she told me and my dad about it after you went back, and compared me with Fu Xiangze. She said, how could she give birth to a piece of wood, and how ugly he looks. Am I really that bad looking?”

Bian Li couldn’t help laughing when he said this, then he looked at his cousin seriously and commented, “Not bad, sunny, handsome, brave and optimistic big boy. Very good.”

Fang Yixing knew that Bian Li was encouraging him, “Thank you, my sweet-talking sister.” Then he reached out and rubbed Bian Li’s head.
