Chapter 179: Then Don’t Hug Me

She was partially touched, but mostly sad because her father had fallen for another auntie, and the person deep within his heart was no longer her mother.

Large drops of tears started falling into her rice bowl.

Song Chuyi watched her for a while. He placed his chopsticks down and reached out to pull her into his embrace.

Changqing’s tears stained his shirt wet and she said with a hoarse voice, “… say… if one day… I were to pass away too… would you… after a short while… marry another woman too…”

Before she finished, her forehead was flicked.

Song Chuyi’s brows were tightly knitted but his tone was gentle. “Don’t say this kind of silly thing. I think you will definitely age to be an old lady.”

“I don’t want to be an old lady.” Changqing sniffed. “Old ladies are ugly.”

“When you become an old lady, I will also become an old man. I won’t be any better off,” Song Chuyi said while wiping away the tears on her face.

Changqing was in a daze. She lifted her head to look at his handsome face and suddenly broke out into laughter. “That’s true; you will definitely be very ugly when you become an old man. We’ll be equally ugly.”

Song Chuyi pinched her cheeks.

How silly.

He sighed and said, “Your dad is really quite good—your Mom passed away so long ago. Few men would stay unmarried for more than twenty years. Actually, men’s vitality only lasts for a few decades and it’s very noble that your dad was willing to use those few decades to protect the two of you. Just as you’ve said, he and Auntie Shen Lu liked each other for a long time, and that’s proof that his love is long-lasting. Actually, with your dad’s capabilities, he could very well choose a young and pretty woman to marry. There would even be women your age willing to marry your dad, but he didn’t go that route. He chose the sickly Shen Lu who’s around his age. That says he’s someone who places great importance on relationships. Even if he were to remarry, in his heart, your Mom must be hidden in a very, very important spot. Otherwise, why would he dote so much on the two of you?”

Changqing was in a daze from hearing that.

The way he put it also started to make her believe that Yan Lei hadn’t forgotten her mother at all.

“Look at you, so unreasonable and naughty. If I were your dad, I would’ve long washed my hands off of you.” Song Chuyi chuckled softly and pinched her cheek.

Changqing slapped his hand away and said with frustration, “Who cares for that? If you despise me for being unreasonable and naughty then don’t hug me.”

“I have no choice; you’re nice to touch. Especially here. I love this the most.” Song Chuyi’s hand moved to her chest, teasing her till she blushed. His lips didn’t slacken and he went up for a kiss.

His rough stubble pricked her tender little face until it became red in no time at all. She pushed him away shyly.

Song Chuyi bit her tender tongue. He really wanted to tear her apart and eat her up.

Auntie Zhang, who came out from the kitchen after finishing up with the last dish, saw this scene and went right back in with her old face blushing.

Aiyaya, the youngsters were indeed getting bolder and bolder. They could even end up kissing over a meal. This household was really making her embarrassed.

Changqing didn’t know how she finished this meal. In any case, after the meal, she felt every inch of her body itching from his pinches and her face was also red.

Song Chuyi accompanied her on the couch as she watched television programs. As they watched, he drifted off to sleep and he rested his head on her lap.

Changqing was afraid to wake him up and didn’t dare to move. It wasn’t until her legs were numb and she really had to use the toilet that she nudged him. “I need to use the washroom.”

Song Chuyi rubbed his eyes as he sat up and looked at the time. It was already nine.

When Changqing came out from the toilet, he asked, “Is your dad not back yet?”

Changqing gave Yan Lei a call and he said with a tired voice, “I’m at the hospital keeping your Auntie Shen company. I won’t be back to sleep tonight.”

“Dad, can your body take it?”

“It’s okay.”

Changqing hung up and sighed, saying to Song Chuyi, “In the future, if I were to fall sick, would you also keep me company like that at the hospital?”

“You make it sound as if I’ve never kept you company. When you had a fever before, didn’t I keep you company?” Song Chuyi’s eyelids were battling to stay open. He really couldn’t take it. “I’m going upstairs to sleep. Don’t stay up too late.”

“Oh.”

Not long after he went upstairs, Changqing went upstairs too. She showered and played with her phone for a while before sleeping at 11.

The next morning, while she was half-awake, she was pulled up by someone to do morning exercise again.

Changqing was really tired and just let him do whatever he wanted.

Seeing that she could still sleep, Song Chuyi pulled her on top of him.

Changqing wanted to cry to show that she really couldn’t take it—horse-riding so early in the morning.

She moaned and called out “Chuchu”.

Song Chuyi didn’t last 10 minutes before he finished.

He was a little frustrated. This little vixen was really making his scalp feel numb.

Changqing even opened her moist eyes wide open while in a daze. “Why are you done so quickly today…”

She hadn’t even felt any pleasure yet.

Song Chuyi “…”

Insisting on not admitting that he couldn’t last long in a certain aspect, he then let out a dry cough, saying, “It’s almost time for work. I was afraid there was no time, so I finished quickly. I’ll satisfy you again tonight.”

He kissed her small face. Changqing was shy. “I’m going to the hospital with you too. I want to visit my dad and Auntie Shen.”

“Then let’s take a shower together.” Song Chuyi was happy that he could take a good look at her again.

This time, he kept his hands to himself and didn’t pester her.

Changqing also knew that no matter how great his vitality was, he would always put all his hospital work-related things first. He would never be late no matter how much he was suffering and would never go against his principles.

After having breakfast, Changqing packed two sets of breakfast.

This was her first time going to the hospital with Song Chuyi and she felt a little embarrassed. Although she was wearing a hat and a mask, Song Chuyi was holding her hand throughout the entire journey.

She saw some envious nurses and young female doctors on the way and Changqing felt a little proud and delighted.

Could this be considered publicly declaring her dominance at the hospital?

When they walked out of the elevator, Song Chuyi patted her back. “I’m going to do my hand-over; you go to the ward first. I’ll go over to look for you in a while.”

“You don’t have to look for me if you’re busy,” Changqing said softly.

“… It’s okay,” he said while looking at her.

Changqing was a little afraid to meet his gaze. She lowered her head. “Then I’ll head off first.”

“Mm.”

When Changqing turned around, her heart was pounding quickly.

When she walked to the door of the ward, Changqing saw Yan Lei bending over, helping Shen Lu wipe her face with a towel.

In the room, the morning sunlight shone in softly and harmoniously.

She felt sour inside as she watched the two people over the age of fifty. How many people could help and support each other like them?

Perhaps in a person’s life, it was about nothing more than finding a person to keep you company when you were old and sick.

“Changqing…” Shen Lu saw her first and was slightly uneasy. Afterwards, she nodded and smiled.

“Auntie Shen, are you feeling better?” Changqing put down the breakfast and said softly, “I brought you and my dad breakfast.”

“It’s been hard on you. Don’t you have to go to the broadcasting station today?” Shen Lu asked.

“There isn’t much to do. It’s okay if I head over a little later.” Changqing scooped the porridge out and asked, “Where’s Brother Fu Yu?”

“He should be coming over later.” Shen Lu said hesitantly, “Changqing, your dad and I…”

“It’s okay. If it were someone else, I would never agree, but if it’s Auntie Shen, it’s okay.” Changqing smiled. “Auntie Shen was the best to me when I was young.”

Shen Lu was happy and touched and also relieved.

Yan Lei accepted the porridge and fed Shen Lu. Shen Lu said shyly, “I’ll eat on my own. How embarrassing at this age.”

“What’s the matter? Didn’t you say that you don’t have strength in your arms in the morning?” Yan Lei said with a face full of concern.

Changqing watched by the side as Yan Lei fed Shen Lu spoon by spoon and was a little absent-minded. She turned her face away and suddenly realized that Fu Yu was standing at the door, looking gloomy.

She was startled for a while and silently tugged him by the shirt. The two of them left the ward together.

Fu Yu looked haggard and there was pain in his eyes.

Changqing said, “Brother Fu Yu, let them be together.”

Fu Yu was startled. He lifted his head and his eyes were bloodshot. How could he let them be together? After they got together, he would be her brother.

“Didn’t you say yourself too that you would be my brother in the future?” Changqing said softly, “I don’t want them to suffer again because of us. They suffered once when we were too young, but now, we’re already grown up. Those few years abroad, watching your father have a woman and child outside and watching Auntie Shen all alone, didn’t you feel upset inside? A marriage that should’ve ended caused Auntie Shen to suffer because of one’s selfishness. Is that really okay? Think about the time when Auntie Shen was tortured by her brain tumor.

“As her son, have you ever regretted not being able to make your mother happy for a long time? You did give her unlimited riches and a luxurious life, but every day, she guards a house that’s as empty as a graveyard. Is there a meaning to that?”

Fu Yu lowered his head and watched the shorter Changqing, who was standing before him. For the first time, he seemed to realize what she was talking about.

They were already grown up.

Yes, they were no longer the innocent and ignorant childhood sweethearts of the past.

His Qing Bao had also started to become sensible.

She was so filial and what she hated the most was unfilial people.

As for him, should he also give up some things for the sake of filial piety?

He recalled the events of the previous night. When he found out that Shen Lu went back to Yangzhou with Yan Lei, he was unable to control his emotions and blew his top at the villa. Shen Lu said, “For you and Changqing, I’ve already done what I could, but your relationship has already come to an end. I don’t want to give up my happiness once again for fruitless things between you and Changqing.”

If Shen Lu got her happiness, what about him? Where was his happiness?

If Shen Lu was happy, would he be happy?

He was selfish. If he wasn’t so selfish, why would Shen Lu need to go to the States with him and watch as her husband got with another woman and had an illegitimate daughter, behaving like a family of three on the outside? Because of that, she was struck deeply, causing her to be depressed.

“Changqing, are you only able to say it so easily because you no longer love me?” he said. There was a deep sense of exhaustion in his tone.

Changqing was stunned. “If I were you, I would definitely allow my mother to be fulfilled. Even if I was very, very unhappy inside, I would still do it.”

Fu Yu looked at her in a daze for a while and turned around, walking away rigidly, step by step.
