Tang Sui stopped and said to Iloya with great regret, “I’m sorry, little golden retriever, I have something to do.”
Iloya frowned in confusion. “I checked today, and both Pessey and Song Fanxing are on leave. Besides, it’s after school now, so no one will bother us.”
“Or are you saying you rejected my offer?”
“I know that you Chinese people need to define your relationship, but I like someone else.”
“Don’t ask for more.” This is the third time already, why does it keep getting interrupted?
Tang Sui winked at Iloya, “I agreed to your suggestion, but not today.”
Iloya narrowed her eyes, her gaze shifting to the people watching them from a distance, and a memory she had almost forgotten suddenly flooded her mind.
The person in front of me is Fu Juezhou’s mother’s…fiancée.
Tang Sui ignored Iloya’s reaction and walked towards Fu Qing, who was, after all, a major benefactor.
Tang Sui approached, affectionately hugged Fu Qing’s arm, and exclaimed, “Darling, what brings you to school?”
Fu Qing did not reject Tang Sui’s touch. She reached out and tidied Tang Sui’s messy hair, saying gently, “I just happened to be passing by.”
“Xiao Sui, you might need to come to my old house with me.”
“Get in the car first.”
Tang Sui got into the car and saw Fu Qing take out a blanket and cover her legs. “There’s heating in the car, but it’s still better to cover yourself.”
Tang Sui blinked her long eyelashes, truly experiencing the difference between older and younger . Turning her head to look at Fu Qing, Tang Sui said, “Darling, you don’t actually need to do these things for me. You just need to give me money.”
Fu Qing was somewhat surprised, then shook her head with a laugh after a moment: “Xiao Sui, is there not enough money?”
“I’ll have someone call you; just let me know if it’s not enough.”
“Action and money are not mutually exclusive.”
“I’m just a little worried that you’ll catch a cold.”
Tang Sui turned her head to look out the window, her voice always carrying a smile, “Just like before.” Her voice was melodious and lingering, like a feather brushing against the ear, bringing a slight tingling sensation.
“You don’t need to care about me.” The novel describes Fu Qing very little, so it’s unclear what his motivation is for caring about her now.
If she hadn’t transmigrated into this world, the original owner would have died long ago due to Fu Qing’s indifference.
“I’m sorry, Xiaosui, I’ve been very busy since I got you into the school.” Fu Qing’s voice was magnetic and husky, carrying the weight of years, and extremely captivating.
She genuinely felt sorry for her neglect.
She shouldn’t have treated a child who had just come of age like that.
Apologies can be conveyed through language.
Tang Sui smiled. For someone like Fu Qing to sincerely admit his mistakes and apologize was already an incredible thing.
Not wanting to say more, she casually changed the subject: “It’s okay. By the way, what are you going to the old house for?”
Fu Qing’s eyes were deep yet bright as she spoke softly, “The old lady is insisting on seeing you.”
“Xiaosui, if you feel wronged, just leave. I’ll handle it later.”
A note from the author:
New Map
Iloya: This is the third time. Does anyone even consider my feelings?
Chapter 35
Should you leave just because you feel wronged?
Tang Sui, her eyes half-closed, said lazily, “Then I’ll just not go, won’t I?”
After Tang Sui finished speaking, she waited for a long time but didn’t receive a reply from Fu Qing. She turned her head, glanced sideways at the elegant Fu Qing beside her, and smiled, “Was I wrong?”
Fu Qing took out a small cake from the storage box, then put down the small table and placed the cake on it before answering, “You’re right, but there will be a gift when you go.” Fu Qing’s eyes were filled with a smile, very light and not ostentatious, just quietly shimmering, “You children should really like those things.”
“Let’s eat something first.”
Tang Sui’s gaze fell on the small cake, which was clearly her favorite chocolate cake.
Tang Sui didn’t stand on ceremony. She moved closer, opened the packaging, and started eating. “Darling, I forgive you.” Older humans are just so good at taking care of people.
The sweet aroma of cake filled the carriage. Fu Qing gently curved her lips and smiled at Tang Sui, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes filled with tenderness. “Jue Zhou is here too. You can stay at the old house for a while.”
“I’ve already made arrangements with the school.”
Immediately, Tang Sui’s eyes lit up, and her gaze towards Fu Qing became much more sincere. “Darling, you’re so thoughtful. I love playing with my sweet daughter.” She hadn’t really wanted to go before because there wasn’t any delicious food, but now that there was, she wanted to go.
Fu Qing was slightly surprised, but after a moment her brows relaxed. Occasionally, the girl in front of her looked more like Qin Yang than Jue Zhou.
Qin Yang had also jokingly called her that before.
Fu Qing’s gaze softened further. “Xiao Sui, you are sometimes very much like my lover.”
I hope this doesn’t offend you.
Tang Sui narrowed her eyes, a half-smile on her face. “Are you going to play a substitution game with me ? I’ll get angry.”
Fu Qing shook her head, her smile fading, and said seriously, “Xiao Sui, everyone is unique. Finding someone similar to satisfy your own selfish desires shows no respect for anyone.”
Tang Sui chuckled softly, scooped a small piece of cake and placed it to Fu Qing’s lips, gazing at her with a smile, “Darling, are you really neglecting me because you’re too busy?”
“Am I your fiancée? Are we going to get married? And I’m so young, yet you don’t care about me at all.”
Tang Sui’s topic changed unexpectedly, and Fu Qing followed up on Tang Sui’s words: “I’m sorry, Xiao Sui.” In the end, it’s just that Tang Sui’s existence is too insignificant, not enough for her to take more time to take care of Tang Sui when she’s busy.
Those sent to check on Tang Sui said she was gradually adapting, so she focused all her attention on her work.
Even if she doesn’t love the girl in front of her, she should still fulfill her duties as an adult.
Fu Qing opened her lips and ate the cake in front of her without showing any disgust.
The chocolate melted in my mouth, sweet and cloying.
After finishing eating, Fu Qingcai said, “Xiaosui, I don’t like sweets.”
Tang Sui nodded, then scooped up a small spoonful and held it to Fu Qing’s lips, a hint of mischievousness in her smile: “I just like forcing people to eat things they hate.”
“Honey, I’ll get angry if you don’t eat.” No wonder Fu Juezhou was raised like that.
Fu Qing really spoils the child; he only says he doesn’t like it after eating it.
If you don’t like something, you should just say no.
People in Fu Qing’s position don’t need to cater to others at all.
In fact, she and Fu Qing had barely met more than a few times.
Fu Qing opened her lips and ate the second bite of cake.
Tang Sui loves to tease people, but Fu Qing’s reaction is lukewarm; teasing the children is much more interesting.
If it were Fu Juezhou or someone else, she would have gently licked the used spoon from her lips in front of them.
“Not fun,” Tang Sui said lazily, putting down her spoon and preparing to continue enjoying the scenery along the way.
At this moment, Fu Qing called out to her, “Xiao Sui, wait.”
Tang Sui blinked her eyelashes and watched as Fu Qing reached out and hooked her chin, taking out a tissue to gently wipe her lips.
A faint smile played in Fu Qing’s eyes as she spoke in a hoarse yet gentle voice: “You have chocolate stuck to your lips.”
“alright.”
Tang Sui held out her finger to Fu Qing, “Wipe your hands too.” Her hands also had some on them.
Tang Sui’s matter-of-fact attitude did not displease Fu Qing. She took a clean wet wipe, gently held the hand that was slightly smaller than hers, and slowly wiped away the black spots left on the pink and white fingertips.
“Did you put it on your clothes?” Fu Qing asked.
Tang Sui shook her head and withdrew her hand.
She and Fu Qing had nothing left to talk about.
Although Fu Qing is extremely handsome, she doesn’t want to seduce him.
She already has plenty of food; there’s no need to try someone who always loves others.
Leaning back in her chair, Tang Sui’s expression became languid. She took out her phone and started reading erotic novels.
After she finished reading the erotic novels, she started reading erotic comics.
Seeing this, Fu Qing did not disturb Tang Sui, but quietly dealt with the remaining cake, and then set up the small table to restore the back seat to its original state.
The Fu family’s old house is in another province. It was almost nine o’clock when we came out of the airport.
Because we weren’t traveling on a private plane, we still had to take a car ride to the Fu residence.
Tang Sui was a little sleepy. She was a devil with a lot of energy, but she would also be troubled by drowsiness when she was bored.
Leaning against the car wall, Tang Sui closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.
When Fu Qing looked up from the bright screen of her laptop, she found that the person next to her was already fast asleep.
Fu Qing pinched the bridge of her nose, then put the laptop away; the keyboard made a sound when she typed.
There’s still some distance from the airport to the Fu residence. I had classes today, so it’s understandable that I fell asleep from exhaustion.
Fu Qing raised his hand and put his arm around Tang Sui’s shoulder, letting her lean gently into his embrace.
It was completely dark outside the window. The closer we got to the suburbs, the fewer lights there were. Finally, when we drove into the mountains, only rows of streetlights remained.
Occasionally, the light would shine on Tang Sui’s sleeping profile, outlining a hazy yet beautiful face.
The car was warm, and Tang Sui’s face was flushed from sleeping. A few strands of long hair fell across her cheeks. Suddenly, a slender finger with distinct knuckles gently hooked a strand of hair and tucked it behind her ear.
Looking down at Tang Sui’s profile, Fu Qing smiled. She’s still just a child, so unguarded.

“Xiaosui, we’ve arrived.” A gentle whisper sounded in her ear.
Tang Sui half-opened her eyes, gazing vaguely at the person in front of her, and unceremoniously stretched out her hands towards him, “Darling, carry me away.” She didn’t really want to move.
Fu Qing did not refuse; she bent down and picked Tang Sui up.
