Qin Shu looked at the time and realized that she had been sitting in front of the desk for four hours and had not moved at all. No wonder her legs were numb.
At this time, the man was almost back.
Because during this time, the man was usually home on time to have dinner with her.
She wanted to go down early and sit at the dining table to wait for him.
Qin Shu moved his feet and was about to stand up, but she did not want to move a second time.
Anyone who had experienced numbness in the legs would know that was uncomfortable.
She stood up on the desk with both hands and tried to move. Every time she moved, her legs felt like they were being gnawed by countless ants. It was very uncomfortable, and she walked very slowly, comparable to the speed of a tortoise.
It took her a long time to reach the entrance of the stairs. Just as she was about to go down, she saw Fu Tingyu’s tall and slender figure walk in from outside. She stopped in her tracks and looked at that tall figure.
The black suit had not changed for thousands of years. The custom-made suit was well-tailored, perfectly presenting his tall and slender figure. He stood there like a tall and straight pine tree, proudly standing there.
The black colour gave people a calm and reserved visual effect.
Fu Tingyu’s calm and reserved look didn’t need any external things to set it off. With just one look, each of his movements revealed his noble temperament. With a flip of his hand, he could turn the clouds and rain.
When Fu Tingyu was walking toward the restaurant, he caught a glimpse of a thin and weak figure standing on the second floor from the corner of his eye. He stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look. He saw the girl standing there holding the railing. She was wearing a light blue family uniform in autumn style.
Long-sleeved and long pants?
She wore a similar family uniform even when she slept.
In the past, when she slept, she would either sleep in a lace dress or wear a suspenders dress.
It was only today that he noticed that the girl had suddenly wrapped herself up very tightly.
This should have started from the day she rejected him.
Fu Tingyu turned around and walked towards the stairs, seeing that the girl was standing still. He walked up step by step and stood in front of the girl steadily. There was a step between both of them, which also made their height differences lesser.
Qin Shu didn’t have to raise her head to see the man’s handsome face.
The man asked, “Why are you standing still?”
Qin Shu looked at the man and pointed at her numb legs. She whispered, “My legs are numb.”
This time, they were numb.
This time, the man didn’t reach out to hug her directly. Instead, he looked at the girl without blinking. “Do you want me to carry you down?”
Qin Shu thought that the man would carry her down directly. He even asked specifically, as if he was asking for her opinion. If she said she didn’t want to, he wouldn’t plan to hug her.
She nodded vigorously without even thinking and said, “Yes.”
Fu Tingyu’s tall and straight figure stood there without moving. His pair of deep eyes locked onto the girl’s eyes that were as bright as the Milky Way. “Then say something nice.”
Nice?
Usually, when a man made such a request, it was mostly when he was in a bad mood. Now the reason he was in a bad mood was that he was rejected by her.
Qin Shu’s pretty eyes blinked. “Hubby, my legs are numb. Can you carry me down?”
The girl calling him hubby made the man’s cold expression loosen a little. He did not want to be in a stalemate with her. He stretched out his strong and powerful arms, hugged the girl by her waist, and stepped downstairs with a turn.
Qin Shu put his hands around the man’s neck to keep her balance.
The man’s actions showed that he liked to hear this sentence.
Housekeeper Shi, Mother Wang, and Lemon in the living room saw what had just happened.
Lemon’s eyes were filled with envy. The Fourth Master was too petting young Madam. He even carried her downstairs. He doted on her so much.
Housekeeper Shi and Mother Wang thought that only when the husband and wife were harmonious, the family will thrive and prosper. There was hope for the Old Madam to have a great-grandson.
Fu Tingyu carried the girl to the dining table, bent down, and placed her on the chair. Only then he stood up to wash his hands. Qin Shu was not in a hurry to start eating. She waited for the man to wash his hands and sit down opposite her. Only then she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
She had asked the chef to stew the blackfish soup a few days ago. Today, she had asked Lemon to inform the chef in advance not to stew it.
She was really afraid of it. Now, whenever she saw the fish soup, she felt like vomiting.
Fortunately, the wound had begun to scab. It should be fine in a few days.
Fu Tingyu picked up his chopsticks and ate the food in front of him slowly. He was still recalling the girl’s coquettish tone, and the corner of his mouth raised upwards unconsciously.
Qin Shu, who was eating with her head lowered, did not see the man sitting across from her with his mouth raised upwards.
When Qin Shu raised her head to look at the man opposite her, the smile on his face had disappeared. His face was calm as usual.
She lowered her head again and continued to eat the rice in her bowl.
After dinner.
Fu Tingyu stood up, left the dining table, and went to the study room as usual.
Qin Shu stood up as well. It was the fourth day today, so it was no longer so obvious while she walked.
She walked to the man’s side and followed him upstairs.
When she reached the stairs, Fu Tingyu glanced sideways at the girl. He turned around and walked to the study room.
Qin Shu returned to her bedroom. After closing the door, she lowered her head and rolled up her pants. She looked at the wound on her calf. It didn’t seem to have changed much, and she could still see the tender flesh and blood inside the hole.
There was a difference between a gunshot wound and a knife wound. If her calf had been cut by a knife, it would have been scabbed for four days.
Qin Shu thought that maybe it was because the weather was too hot and it took longer to heal.
She didn’t bother about it and prepared to go to the small study room to attend classes.
10 PM, in the study room.
She had been returning to the bedroom at 10 pm for the past few days.
Fu Tingyu glanced at the time on his watch when it was time. He didn’t plan to go back to the bedroom so early tonight. It would be uncomfortable if he couldn’t sleep in the bed.
At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Fu Tingyu glanced at the caller ID on his phone screen. It was Mo Chengyu.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he picked up the phone and answered.
“Brother Yu, do you want to come out for a drink? Don’t hang up again. I tell you what you hung up on is a friendship between brothers..”
In order to prevent Fu Tingyu from hanging up suddenly, Mo Chengyu had informed him in advance. This time, he deliberately chose to call him at ten o’clock. His nightlife had just begun.
Fu Tingyu asked, “Where?”
Fu Tingyu agreed so readily that Mo Chengyu was stunned. After that, he asked purposely, “Aren’t you going to accompany your woman?”
Fu Tingyu’s voice turned cold. “It’s been a long time since I’ve entered the boxing ring. Do you want me to be your coach?”
“No, there’s no need for that. At our usual place.”
As soon as Mo Chengyu finished speaking, Fu Tingyu hung up the phone, letting him breathe a sigh of relief. Training with Fu Tingyu? Then he’ll just be a punching bag, the one who got beaten.
Fu Tingyu turned off his computer, put on his suit jacket and went out.
Shi Yan drove the car. He was afraid the Fourth master wouldn’t come back drunk if he didn’t follow.
(beeping)
Jiang Cheng, The Star bar.
Shi Yan parked the car and opened the door to get off hurriedly. He went to the back seat and opened the door. Fu Tingyu got out of the car and walked into the bar with his tall and slender figure.
