The rich stepmother brought her son to the variety show again ~ Chapter 66 Acting like a spoiled child

“Even if you can’t remember, it doesn’t matter.” Fu Ruhui touched Chu Rong’s long eyelashes tenderly, “As long as you are happy.”

  His words were so perfect and his expression was so sincere, that Chu Rong’s little anger had long since subsided. Fu Ruhui didn’t say it, but in his heart he must still hope that she could remember their past.

  ”It’s not like I can’t remember it,” Chu Rong struggled internally for a moment, but finally said honestly, “When you mentioned the little wooden lamp just now, I felt like I had some impression of it in my mind.”

  Fu Ruhui was not surprised. He looked at her with a smile and asked, “What did you remember?”

  He smiled with some ill intentions. Chu Rong narrowed his eyes, “Why are you smiling so strangely? I just thought about how this lamp was made.”

  ”Don’t you remember why you did this?” Fu Ruhui said with a smile.

  Chu Rong looked at him warily, “I don’t want to know, don’t tell me.”

  ”Well, that’s a pity. It’s actually quite interesting.” He spoke to Chu Rong so frankly about the things she had forgotten. It seemed that he really didn’t care whether she could remember them or not. His unfounded trust was indeed touching, and Chu Rong was shamefully touched.

  She touched her hair to cover up, “Oh.”

  The two were speechless for a moment. Chu Rong felt a little awkward, but Fu Ruhui was very at ease. He looked at her carefully, as if he was not annoyed. The more he looked at her, the more his smile became.

  The gaze was too hot and Chu Rong couldn’t ignore it even if she wanted to. They were still standing by the bed and the atmosphere was getting hotter and hotter. Chu Rong was just about to ask if there was anything else he wanted to ask, but Fu Ruhui’s voice reached Chu Rong’s ears first.

  ”Are you feeling happier?” Fu Ruhui asked.

Chu Rong: “Ah?”

  ”You were tired from piano lessons today. Are you happier now?”

  Chu Rong said: “It’s okay. I’m not unhappy, am I?”

  ”That means Xiaoyu’s information is false,” Fu Ruhui said seriously, “This little guy is spreading false information.”

  Chu Rong thought that what Fu Yu said was actually true. She was indeed worried about Bulang Jun for a while, but it was only for a short while. She had no other advantages. Her only advantage was that she was open-minded. If there was anything she was worried about, she would only worry about it for a moment and would soon put it behind her – you can’t escape from big things, and you don’t need to escape from small things. This was Chu Rong’s experience of being a salted fish for so many years.

  ”You can’t say that. Who is that piano teacher you’re looking for? Can you just tell me directly?” Chu Rong said solemnly, “It’s not that I’m curious, but I feel a little unsafe if you don’t tell me.”

  ”Unsafe?” Fu Ruhui was stunned. For the first time, he was sincerely confused. “What do you mean?”

  Chu Rong tiptoed mysteriously and whispered in Fu Ruhui’s ear: “I’m not judging others by my own standards, nor am I questioning your judgment, but Bulang Jun is really a little strange.” Asking her about her origins right away was not only strange, but too strange. This made Chu Rong feel a sense of crisis. If Fu Ruhui didn’t reveal some information about Bulang Jun to her, wouldn’t she and Bulang Jun be in a state of extremely asymmetric information?

  Brown Jun almost knew her biggest secret, but she only knew Brown Jun’s nickname which was not even his name.

  The doubt in Fu Ruhui’s eyes slowly faded away, and he understood what Chu Rong meant. The corners of his mouth raised suspiciously, as if he wanted to gloat over someone else’s misfortune, but he forced himself to suppress it.

  ”Are you saying that you suspect Brown Jun is some unknown person?”

  Fu Ruhui sorted out his words and asked in a tone that was half-smiling.

  Chu Rong pouted, “My suspicion is well-founded. Who told you not to tell me who he is? He also looks a bit weird.”

  Fu Ruhui’s eyes curved with laughter. He coughed twice, “I know. Search the name ‘Chu Jue’ on the Internet.”

  ”Chu Jue?” Chu Rong tilted his head. “Is that his real name?”

  Fu Ruhui hummed, a low laugh escaping his lips.

  Chu Rong took out her mobile phone and searched the name on the search app in front of Fu Ruhui.

  ”chu, jun…” The magical thing is that as soon as these two pinyins were entered, a name automatically popped up in the mobile phone input method. Chu Rong searched for that name, and an entry popped up as the first one.

  It is an encyclopedia of information about a person.

  The accompanying photo cover features a young man with delicate makeup on. His eyes and lipstick are made in extremely bright and bold colors. His facial features are exquisite, and he completely pulls off the makeup that ordinary people cannot appreciate, which makes his enchanting temperament even more charming.

  His clothes were very fashionable, a black patchwork short-sleeved shirt, work pants of novel design, and a shiny silver chain around his waist. Because he was tiptoeing off the ground, the chain formed a graceful arc in mid-air.

  He was wearing headphones and was frozen in the photo in a handsome dance move, with a firm and arrogant look in his eyes, showing the youth’s madness to the fullest.

  This was completely different from the image that Brown Jun presented to Chu Rong in the morning. If it weren’t for the distinctive mole at the corner of his eye, Chu Rong would have been unable to connect the bright and charming young man in the photo with the lifeless Brown Jun.

  ”This…” Chu Rong opened the encyclopedia with eyes wide open, and there was his personal information written inside: Chu Jue, former member of the popular male idol group Greenfire, lead dancer, 20 years old this year, debuted for four years, solo for one year, representative works, etc. There were also many photos of Chu Jue during his time in the boy band, all of them were like the cover, with heavy and delicate makeup, and sweating profusely on the stage.

  ”He’s a star?” Chu Rong was incredulous. She admitted that aside from Bulang Jun’s appearance, he was indeed quite handsome, but how could he be related to a star? He didn’t look like one at all.

  Fu Ruhui and Chu Rong put their heads together. After reading Chu Rong’s information, he nodded: “He is a kind of celebrity, different from those people you saw in the variety show last time.”

  Chu Rong was dumbfounded. Fu Ruhui found a member of a boy band to teach her piano?

  ”Doesn’t he have his own job? Members of an idol group like this should be very busy.” Even if Brown Jun has already left the group, he shouldn’t be so idle that he can earn extra money as a piano teacher, right?

  Fu Ruhui smiled softly, “Surprised?”

  ”Unexpected.” Chu Rong nodded, which made her even more puzzled. Idol group members also know supernatural arts. Is the threshold to enter the entertainment industry so high? When she thought that she had been in the entertainment industry for a few days, Chu Rong suddenly felt that it was not too high. As long as she had money, it would be fine.

  So, why did Chu Jue come to be a piano teacher? Was it because Fu Ruhui offered a high salary?

  ”What does he want?” Chu Rong asked quietly.

  Fu Ruhui looked at her and asked instead of answering: “Don’t you like him?”

  Chu Rong shook his head, “Not really.”

  ”Why do you seem to mind?”

  Chu Rong sighed, “I don’t know.” she just subconsciously felt some resistance to Chu Jue’s profession. It was not disgust nor disdain. Chu Rong just felt a dull pain in her heart when she thought about the profession of a boy band member.

  Fu Ruhui pursed his lips, and saw that she was not very happy. He sighed in his heart. This was the reason why Xiaojue didn’t let him tell her his identity. But once Chu Rong opened her mouth, he really had no bottom line to stick to, so he could only tell her everything. After all, he had to let someone down, so he had to let Xiaojue down. Fu Ruhui felt a little guilty and silently said sorry. I’m sorry, Xiaojue. The truth cannot be hidden.

  ”If you hate it, then don’t let him teach.” Fu Ruhui asked Chu Rong for her opinion in a low voice.

  Chu Rong went back to look at Chu Jue’s photos. The more she looked, the more she could connect the popular idol Chu Jue and Brown Jun. There was also a short interview with Chu Jue, asking him what his favorite dessert was. He said it was brownies. His family often made them for him and he would never get tired of eating them.

No wonder he is called Brown Jun, Teacher Xiaojun, Teacher Xiaojue, that’s it.

  Chu Rong looked at Chu Jue, who was rarely seen without heavy makeup in the interview, and lowered her eyes without saying anything for a long time.

  ”I don’t hate him, there’s no need to keep changing him.” Fu Ruhui waited quietly for a long time before Chu Rong said slowly.

  ”Really? Don’t force yourself. He fought for this job on his own. There is no contract signed yet. If you are not satisfied, he can resign at any time.” Of course, even if a contract is signed, Chu Rong can resign at any time if she does not like it. Fu Ruhui thought, since he has already betrayed Xiao Jue, he might as well betray him a little more.

  ”Why is he trying to get this job?” Chu Rong asked puzzled. He had nothing to do, so why would he run to Fu Ruhui’s house to teach her to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star for three hours?

  Fu Ruhui said: “I don’t know.”

  ”Why do you know him?” Chu Rong caught the blind spot and continued to ask.

  Fu Ruhui did not hide it and said openly: “I know his brother.”

  ”Another child from a partner’s family?” Chu Rong thought of Fei Ao, Fei Qiu’s younger brother, who would go to their house to attend a dance the day after tomorrow. “What a coincidence, his last name is also Chu.”

  Fu Ruhui smiled and said nothing.

  ”Hey.” Chu Rong thought for a moment, “Since he is your friend’s brother, you should not dismiss him so easily. I don’t dislike him, but you were too mysterious before, and I feel uneasy.”

  ”But I heard from Xiaoyu that he made things difficult for you?”

  Chu Rong said, “He’s just a kid who’s only 20 years old. How can he embarrass me? I think he’s in a difficult situation. Celebrities are so busy with work, but he still has time to stay in our house for so long, and for several days at a time. Oh, by the way, how did he get here? Won’t there be paparazzi or entertainment reporters following him? Won’t he run into his fans on the way?”

  She chattered on for a long time about Chu Jue, and Fu Ruhui just watched her speak, with the upward curve of his mouth growing wider and wider.

  ”Rongrong, are you concerned?” Fu Ruhui interrupted her when she said she was tired. His tone was slow, as if he was jealous that Chu Rong spent so much time and effort on another person.

  Chu Rong said: “No, I’m just curious.”

  ”Why aren’t you curious about my job?” Fu Ruhui asked, this time with a more obvious sour tone, “Mrs. Fu?”

  Chu Rong choked up, “Have you never heard of the saying that a full bottle of water makes no sound, but a half-full bottle of water sways?”

  Fu Ruhui: “Hmm?”

  ”As for celebrities, ordinary people know a little bit about them, so they are more curious about them and will talk more.”

  Fu Ruhui understood a little, “So Rongrong knows my work very well?”

  ”No,” Chu Rong stretched out her index finger and waved it, “There is another kind, that is, an empty bottle has no sound.” What she meant was that if she didn’t understand Fu Ruhui’s work at all, then she would not be interested in it at all.

  Fu Ruhui was speechless for a long while. He helplessly pressed down the few hairs on Chu Rong’s head and said, “There’s nothing I can do to you.”

  Chu Rong pursed her lips to hold back her smile, “Are you planning on sleeping in this bedroom today?”

  Fu Ruhui shook his head, “Wait until you really remember it.” Fu Ruhui didn’t know why Chu Rong moved out of this room while he was abroad, but he guessed it was related to the real culprit behind the scenes – from the photos, Chu Rong was abnormal for a period of time. As for why the Chu Rong he saw didn’t seem abnormal, Fu Ruhui couldn’t explain it, but he believed his own eyes more.

  ”…Oh.” Chu Rong felt a little sad, but whether she could remember it or not was still a problem.

  ”It doesn’t matter where you live,” Fu Ruhui looked at the locked photo frames in the room. They were photos of him and Chu Rong, as well as their wedding photos. Fu Ruhui had already made some calculations in his mind, “The bedroom is just a room. What matters most is where you are.”

  Chu Rong thought about it and realized that she liked Fu Ruhui very much, but there was a day when the original owner would not come back, so there was really no need for her to sleep in the room that was obviously their wedding room.

  Okay, I can’t hesitate any longer. Since Chu Rong can’t tell Fu Ruhui directly that she is not the original owner, then she will just go with the flow. Fu Ruhui said that she has lost her memory, and Chu Rong is “losing her memory”; when the original owner comes back, she will recover her memory.

  The only reason Fu Ruhui brought her to this room was to give Chu Rong a perfect excuse and to let her know who Bulang Jun was.

  Now it should be called Chu Jue.

  Chu Rong silently repeated Chu Jue’s name in her heart, and for a moment she thought it was quite smooth. Because he had the same last name as her, Chu Rong had a much better opinion of Chu Jue. Looking at his information, he was just a kid who signed a company as a trainee at a young age. His family knew Fu Ruhui, so his family background should not be bad. It is not difficult for people from a good family to break into the entertainment industry, but he must have put in a lot of effort to be able to be the lead dancer.

  It was strange. After reading Chu Jue’s information, her mentality changed a lot inexplicably. Even the terrifying question that Chu Jue asked her in the morning, Chu Rong didn’t care. Anyway, Fu Ruhui would believe her, and what others thought was their business.

  She herself didn’t realize that her impression of Chu Jue was gradually improving.

  Chu Rong, who thought she had overused her brain today, went to bed early. Fu Ruhui turned off the small lamp beside the bed, lay quietly for a while, then gently stood up, walked to the balcony and made a phone call.

  ”Didn’t you tell her?” After a casual greeting, Fu Ruhui asked straight to the point.

  ”…Nothing.” The person who spoke had a hoarse voice, probably because he hadn’t had water for a long time, but it was not difficult to tell that it was Bulang Jun’s voice.

  Fu Ruhui tapped his fingers silently on the marble tiles on the balcony. “Don’t come tomorrow.”

  ”No.” Chu Jue answered quickly. Without asking why, he directly stated his attitude and even showed some disdain for Fu Ruhui’s request.

  Fu Ruhui asked, “What don’t you want?”

  Chu Jue said angrily, “Don’t not come. I want to come.”

“It’s useless even if you come.” Fu Ruhui said mercilessly, “She doesn’t like you. Did you know that on the first day?”

  Chu Jue was silent for a long time, “No.”

  It’s not the first day I knew this.

  Fu Ruhui’s tone softened slightly, “Go back to work and be obedient.”

  ”No.” Chu Jue was frugal with his words and did not give in.

  Fu Ruhui pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache, “Xiaojue.”

  ”I’m coming.” Chu Jue repeated.

  ”…Okay, whatever you want.” Fu Ruhui had no idea what to do with this kid, “But she already knows your job.”

  Chu Jue : “…”

  ”I said it.” Fu Ruhui added.

  Chu Jue was a little annoyed: “Who told you to say that?”

  ”I want to say it.” Fu Ruhui responded to Chu Jue’s words. A thirty-year-old man is still a little higher than a twenty-year-old boy. He easily grasped Chu Jue’s weakness and made him speechless. “Will you dare to come tomorrow?”

  Chu Jue took a few deep breaths on the other end of the phone and hung up.

  Fu Ruhui raised his eyebrows and smiled, pretending to be serious. He thought Chu Jue had really become calm, but he didn’t expect that this calmness was made of paper and would break at the slightest poke.

  Chu Rong returned to the room in a good mood. She woke up at some point and leaned against the head of the bed, tilting her head to look at Fu Ruhui.

  Fu Ruhui’s smile faltered, and his playful look softened. “What’s wrong? Are you hungry or thirsty?”

  Chu Rong didn’t eat much for dinner today. Fu Ruhui guessed that she would be hungry at night, so he asked Sister Yun to make some snacks and put them in the refrigerator. They could be eaten after heating them in the microwave.

  Chu Rong yawned and waved to Fu Ruhui, “Come here.”

  Fu Ruhui put his phone on the cabinet, lifted the quilt and climbed up. The cool air on his body penetrated into the quilt. Chu Rong breathed a sigh of relief, “Cool.”

  Fu Ruhui laughed softly, “Aren’t you cold?”

  Chu Rong shook her head, “It’s still a bit stuffy at night.”

  Fu Ruhui touched her forehead and said, “It’s okay, you don’t have a fever.”

  Chu Rong chuckled, “Why, do I get a fever so easily?”

  Fu Ruhui smiled slightly, “I’m glad you’re fine. Go to sleep.” It’s not that Fu Ruhui was making a fuss, but she was just getting sick too easily recently. Tomorrow he would take her to the hospital for a full physical examination, just to be safe.

  Chu Rong huddled into the quilt, “Don’t get too close to me at night.”

  ”Hmm?” Fu Ruhui skillfully put his arm around Chu Rong’s waist. “Why?”

  ”Because it’s hot.” Chu Rong shrank back, “Why are you holding me so tight? Loosen up a little.”

  Fu Ruhui rubbed Chu Rong’s neck and said, “It’s not hot.”

  Chu Rong admitted defeat, “We can talk it over, don’t try to stop me.”

  Fu Ruhui didn’t listen and continued to rub, “Rongrong.”

  Chu Rong put her hand on Fu Ruhui’s forehead, “Itchy. Mr. Fu, how old are you?”

  Fu Ruhui smiled and said, “I like you.”

  Chu Rong paused, “Oh.”

  ”I like Rongrong.”

  Chu Rong stopped struggling and stopped talking.

  Fu Ruhui’s voice like a spring breeze brushed across Chu Rong’s eardrums. She couldn’t bear it anymore and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

  It’s really unbearable to see a thirty-year-old man acting like a spoiled child.
