Chapter 1707: Chapter 15: Extra Stories of Boss Yun and the Little Cousin (3)
In this life, he had control over almost everything, except for matters concerning his wife...
Completely lost control.
...
Fan Zhengyu sent Jing Hanchuan away, noticed he had brought pears, and decided to make some pear water. Pears are cool in nature and can help clear heat and detoxify, soothe fire, and also moisten the throat, which is quite suitable for Yun Hezhi.
She hadn’t returned home, and her parents called to ask.
Initially, Fan Zhengyu said, "I went on a date with Boss Yun."
But Fan Mingjue wasn’t at evening study today, was at home, and looked across the river at that household, "You went out with him? Then why are their lights on? Is it because they didn’t turn them off, or did a thief break in?"
"..."
Living too close really isn’t a great thing.
Fan Zhengyu could only tell the truth, upon hearing he was sick, Fan Mingjue and his spouse surely wanted to visit.
Jing Hanchuan was at home, and at this moment, his wife was making a cake with their daughter, the little girl had some high-gluten flour on her face, looking like a little spotted cat. His phone vibrated, and he glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, wondering if he’d seen it wrong.
[Sixth Master, Miss Fan’s parents have arrived.]
[They came several times, also brought a lot of food, like chicken, duck, fish, and meat.]
[It seems an old man came, probably the elder of the Fan family.]
...
[There is only a river between the two families.]
Jing Hanchuan was amused.
He left two people near Yun Hezhi’s house to keep watch, mainly to see to what extent these two had developed, whether Fan Zhengyu would spend the night at their home. But the Fan family’s girl hadn’t left, her parents came...
Even her grandfather came too.
How exactly had their relationship developed?
When Yun Hezhi woke up, it was already past eight o’clock in the evening, there was no one in the room, he sweat a bit and felt refreshed, yet hadn’t gone out when he heard hearty laughter from the yard.
The old Mr. Fan was at their home.
The elder had previously had a stroke, but was rescued in time, just walked a bit unsteadily with one leg. In other aspects, he was alright, sometimes he recognized people, and when he saw Yun Hezhi, he seemed quite happy, but grabbed him and called out Fan Mingjue’s name.
"You’re awake?" Fan Zhengyu heard the sound and came out from the kitchen on the side.
"This..." Yun Hezhi didn’t understand why the old Mr. Fan was at his home.
"My parents are here too, upon hearing you’re sick, they came to visit. My mom said the pear water I cooked wasn’t good, you shouldn’t just drink pear water, you need some soup, a meal, and then..." Fan Zhengyu felt a bit embarrassed, after all, during his illness, they came uninvited and even used things from their home.
"My mom originally said she’d bring it after cooking, but it was already dark outside, and our roads here aren’t great, rather dark, carrying food back and forth, so I just let them..."
At this time, Fan Mingjue and his spouse also came out of the kitchen, first inquiring about his health, then saying the food would soon be ready, feeling rather apologetic for arriving uninvited.
"Uncle and Auntie are too kind, it’s actually me feeling embarrassed, being sick and troubling you." Yun Hezhi hadn’t expected the Fan family to come over, and Fan Zhengyu’s mother actually prepared a meal for him by hand.
"Then take a rest first, we’ll eat soon."
Yun Hezhi wasn’t really comfortable sitting down, but there was no room for him in the kitchen anyway.
Actually, the first Fan family member he met was Fan Mingyu, and from her, you could see that the nature of their family was genuinely good.
Fan Mingjue seemed rather fierce, but that was mostly at school, where people like Jiang Jinsang were dominated by his fear, naturally afraid of him, yet privately, though he carried an air of authority, he wasn’t that intimidating.
During dinner, Fan’s mother kept saying that being alone in Beijing wasn’t easy, and sickness certainly made it harder.
"In the future, don’t cook by yourself, just come to our house to eat, we have a big family, not lacking your pair of chopsticks."
"Don’t endure sickness alone, your family isn’t here in Beijing, surviving here by yourself is tough."
"Since you’re with Zhengyu, don’t be so ceremonious with us either."
...
Fan Mingjue usually maintained a stern demeanor, but today, Yun Hezhi was a patient, so he didn’t say much, just gave him some food.
Yun Hezhi originally didn’t have much appetite, but tonight, he surprisingly ate quite a lot.
Being accustomed to solitude, and during a time of vulnerability due to illness, suddenly experiencing such warmth made Yun Hezhi have a thought at the moment:
In this life...
No one but her would do.
After dinner, Fan Zhengyu washed the dishes.
Concerned about possible nighttime relapse, Fan’s mother directly looked at Fan Mingjue, "You stay with him tonight, don’t you have no classes tomorrow morning?"
Yun Hezhi: "..."
Fan Mingjue was taken aback, why him?
But since his wife and daughter were not suitable to stay, and certainly not his father, it had to be him.
"I have to inspect the students’ appearance at the school gates tomorrow morning." Ever since becoming the director of the educational office, it had become his unwavering routine, not a mandatory duty, just his habit.
"You can miss a day, it’s fine." Fan’s mother smiled.
The outcome was, Yun Hezhi’s sickness resulted in Fan Mingjue staying to escort him, not quite care-taking, but the two watched a law channel for a while, then switched to the movie channel, and coincidentally a classic movie was playing, which Fan Mingjue liked a lot, chatting non-stop with him until around midnight when they slept.
The Jing family couldn’t quite comprehend this change, when Fan Zhengyu and others left, they also withdrew.
Jing Hanchuan had just put his daughter to sleep when he saw the two people who had been keeping watch at Yun Hezhi’s doorstep today.
"...So tonight the situation is, Mr. Fan accompanied Boss Yun?" Jing Hanchuan pursed his lips.
"Yes, Miss Fan and her mother, along with the Fan family elder left after nine, but Mr. Fan stayed the whole time."
"Alright, I understand."
Jing Hanchuan pinched his brows, Yun Hezhi couldn’t have already won over the father-in-law so quickly?
So swiftly?
Wasn’t it said that this Mr. Fan was difficult to deal with? Even Jiang Jinsang, Jiang Chengsi, and Qi Zeyan were afraid of him, how did he manage to sort it out so fast?
**
The following day, Jing Hanchuan was fishing in the backyard when he heard Yun Hezhi arrived.
He immediately felt his heart skip a beat, sensing his visit this time surely wouldn’t bear good news.
