The butler gasped, about to cry out in pain, when he suddenly realized that Su Huaiming and Fu Jingfan were still in the back seat. He quickly shut his mouth, hid his bruised hand behind his back, and his expression gradually became ferocious.
After he came to his senses, he cautiously looked at Su Huaiming and Fu Jingfan in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
That glance startled him.
Su Huaiming lay comfortably in the back seat of the car, completely covered with a gray blanket, not even his shoulders were exposed.
Unlike his previous curled-up position, he lay comfortably on the leather chair, his feet hidden under the blanket, only slightly protruding.
Fu Jingfan lowered his eyes to look at the documents, still maintaining that aloof and indifferent demeanor, exuding a noble and powerful aura that made people dare not breathe.
But his body was pressed tightly against the other side of the car door, so close that if he turned his head slightly, he could kiss the car window intimately.
Mingming Fu Jingfan was tall and slender, and quite large even when sitting, he now looked as if he had been squeezed against the car door, his two long legs awkwardly pressed together, being constantly pushed inward by an invisible wall.
The butler had never seen Fu Jingfan look so "disheveled" before, and stared in astonishment.
Just then, he saw the gray blanket suddenly rise slightly, then fall back down, the wrinkles completely disappearing.
Fu Jingfan's body swayed slightly, and he frowned slightly, looking down at his legs.
The butler was completely dumbfounded.
Although the butler couldn't see Su Huaiming's feet, he understood everything from the movement of the blanket and Fu Jingfan's reaction.
No wonder President Fu was huddled so pitifully by the car door; he must have been kicked a lot that night!
It must have been really tough on him.
The instigator, Su Huaiming, seemed to have a premonition of something and Youyou woke up.
He looked around sleepily, rubbed his face, and seeing that it wasn't time to get off the bus yet, he curled up in the warm blanket again, ready to take another nap. He didn't see Fu Jingfan, who was forced to press tightly against the bus door, at all.
As the car was about to stop, Su Huaiming finally came to his full senses, wrapped the blanket around himself, and slowly sat up.
He finally noticed Fu Jingfan's presence, and seeing the documents in his hand, he said in surprise, "You didn't sleep all night?"
Fu Jingfan looked at him, his expression not showing fatigue, but rather a hint of something else, "You didn't wake up all night?"
Su Huaiming yawned, exuding a satisfied scent of having had enough sleep, and said lazily, "Yeah, I slept really well last night."
"Extremely good." Fu Jingfan repeated these three words, his tone somewhat emphasized.
Su Huaiming looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong?"
At this point, he suddenly realized something and said, "I always sleep in a good position, so I shouldn't disturb you."
Upon hearing this, Fu Jingfan stared intently at Su Huaiming, remaining silent for a full half-minute. He then gave a soft snort, his tone intriguing. "It's quite good."
Su Huaiming found Fu Jingfan's attitude a bit strange, but didn't think much of it. Instead, he asked, "You didn't sleep all night, aren't you tired at all?"
Fu Jingfan put the document aside without replying.
Just as Su Huaiming was about to speak again, the car suddenly stopped.
His attention was diverted to the shimmering sea outside the window and the blue and white yacht moored not far away.
Su Huaiming stared wide-eyed in surprise, turning to look at Fu Jingfan as if he suddenly didn't recognize him.
Who knew that Fu Jingfan, this workaholic, had such a romantic side!
Fu Jingfan opened the car door first, took a long stride, and stepped out of the car.
Su Huaiming felt the strong sea breeze and, fearing he would catch a cold, wrapped himself in a small blanket and went downstairs.
Fu Jingfan stood on the other side of the car, looking calmly at the sea, his eyes deeper than the water.
Just as Su Huaiming was about to walk over, he suddenly saw a young man with an even messier hairstyle and older-looking clothes walking towards him. The sunlight was so bright that he couldn't open his eyes, and there seemed to be some sleep in the corners of his eyes.
"I knew you'd come today, so I've already made all the arrangements." Song Hanyu paused, glancing at Su Huaiming standing to the side. She seemed to freeze, her mouth still open as if she were speaking, looking a little dazed.
"You, you are..." Song Hanyu stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Su Huaiming introduced himself, "Hello, I am Su Huaiming."
Song Hanyu certainly recognized Su Huaiming, but she couldn't believe her eyes.
Upon hearing Su Huaiming's voice, Song Hanyu couldn't help but look at Fu Jingfan, her gaze shifting back and forth, her eyes growing brighter and her expression becoming increasingly erratic.
Su Huaiming couldn't guess what the reaction would be, so he could only awkwardly curl the corners of his mouth.
The person in front of me is quite handsome, but why does he seem a bit dim-witted?
Song Hanyu suddenly strode towards Su Huaiming, her attitude quite enthusiastic, "Sister-in-law, what brings you here?"
Su Huaiming: "..." This title is really scary.
Song Hanyu, completely oblivious to the problem, kept babbling, "Sister-in-law, I really didn't expect you to come. If I had known earlier, I would have definitely dressed up properly."
Su Huaiming smiled politely, subconsciously tidying his hair which had been messed up while he slept. "It's okay, I'm the same as you."
Song Hanyu looked at Su Huaiming as if he were a living national treasure, her surprise mixed with a hint of caution, as if afraid Su Huaiming would run away. "I've seen your variety show before, and I didn't expect you to be even more handsome on camera. You and Brother Fu are such a perfect match. I've always wanted to meet you, but I never had the chance. I never thought we'd be so destined to meet in this kind of setting."
Upon hearing the words "Brother Fu," Su Huaiming instinctively looked at Fu Jingfan standing in front of him.
Fu Jingfan's face remained expressionless; he simply called out Song Hanyu's name in a lukewarm manner.
Song Hanyu sensed danger and realized that he had been too smug. He smiled sheepishly and toned down his overly enthusiastic attitude, but his gaze remained fixed on Su Huaiming.
Su Huaiming, unable to bear the stare any longer, asked, "Are you very familiar with Fu Jingfan?"
Song Hanyu seized the opportunity to speak and blurted out, "I've known Brother Fu for a long time. You know, Brother Fu started a business abroad, right? I was the main investor back then. To support Brother Fu, I even took out my savings for my future wife. If I lost it all, I'd be a bachelor for life! I never imagined Brother Fu would be even more amazing than I thought. His actions completely stunned me. Before I could even react, my savings for my future wife had increased tenfold. I've surpassed my dad and become a self-made millionaire!"
Song Hanyu's words were truly humorous, Su Huaiming couldn't help but smile. He then asked, "After you return to China, will you still work with Fu Jingfan?"
"Of course!" Song Hanyu said with a proud expression. "When you encounter such a powerful figure, you have to stick close to him, otherwise how am I supposed to freeload?!"
Su Huaiming found a like-minded person and nodded in agreement, which brought the two of them closer.
Song Hanyu went on and on about Fu Jingfan, almost revealing all of Fu Jingfan's secrets.
Song Hanyu is a seasoned rich second-generation heir who usually keeps a certain air about him and seems quite distant. This is the first time he has been so attentive to someone.
There are reasons for all of this.
The longer Song Hanyu spent with Fu Jingfan, the clearer she became about what kind of person he was. She thought that Fu Jingfan only had work on his mind and couldn't possibly have anything else in his heart.
But Fu Jingfan actually brought Su Huaiming with him this time!
Moreover, it happened at such a special time and place, which fully demonstrates that Su Huaiming holds a significant place in Fu Jingfan's heart. Even if it didn't reach that level, Su Huaiming must have crossed the high threshold set by Fu Jingfan and been able to catch a glimpse of him.
To be able to do that, Su Huaiming is truly an amazing person!!
Song Hanyu was full of curiosity about Su Huaiming, but in front of Fu Jingfan, he didn't dare to ask about the specific details. He could only try to build a good relationship with Su Huaiming and planned to find out more about him when he had the chance later.
Fu Jingfan saw through Song Hanyu's intentions at a glance and didn't give him much time, directly leading Su Huaiming towards the yacht.
Song Hanyu was very sensible and didn't chase after them. Instead, while Fu Jingfan turned around, she took her phone and walked towards Su Huaiming, saying, "It's fate that we met. Why don't we add each other on WeChat? We can hang out sometime when we have time."
Su Huaiming also had a good impression of Song Hanyu, so he immediately took out his phone and added her as a friend.
When Su Huaiming put his phone away, he realized that Fu Jingfan was no longer in front of him. After quickly saying goodbye to Song Hanyu, he immediately turned around and walked towards the yacht.
Song Hanyu stood on the shore waving at Su Huaiming he was out of sight before turning and leaving.
Standing on the yacht, Su Huaiming recalled Song Hanyu's behavior earlier and subconsciously looked at Fu Jingfan.
Fu Jingfan keenly caught Su Huaiming's gaze and asked, "Do you have something to say?"
"I'm just curious, how come you and Song Hanyu, with such different personalities, became such good friends?"
Fu Jingfan understood the meaning behind Su Huaiming's words and explained, "Actually, Song Hanyu also has a..."
He paused, then, from a friend's perspective, gave Song Hanyu an accurate assessment. "She has the makings of a person."
Su Huaiming: "..."
Aren't you afraid that Song Hanyu will burst into tears on the spot if she hears this?
Just as Su Huaiming was about to speak, he suddenly felt a tickle in his nose and couldn't help but sneeze.
"It's windy at sea, go change your clothes," Fu Jingfan continued. "The housekeeper has already prepared everything; the clothes are in your room."
Su Huaiming wrapped himself tightly in the small blanket, thanked them, and went back to his room to change his clothes.
When he came out again, he couldn't find Fu Jingfan.
Su Huaiming asked, "Where is Fu Jingfan?"
"Mr. Fu has gone back to his room to rest," the butler continued. "He asked us not to disturb him for the time being."
Su Huaiming glanced subconsciously at the closed door, somewhat surprised.
Fu Jingfan worked all night yesterday, showing no signs of fatigue, like a perfect work machine. I thought Fu Jingfan wouldn't rest at all.
Afraid of disturbing Fu Jingfan, Su Huaiming simply went to the deck, where he chatted with the butler while looking at the sea view.
The butler said, "Mr. Fu's birthday is coming up soon. What surprise would you like to prepare, Mr. Su?"
At this point, Su Huaiming suddenly remembered something and asked eagerly, "When is Fu Jingfan's birthday?"
"The 10th of this month." The butler was completely bewildered by Su Huaiming's attitude. "I already told you that on the phone."
"It's the 10th, not the 4th?" Su Huaiming then realized he had misheard the date.
"Yes," the butler said with certainty, "It's the tenth of this month."
Su Huaiming paused, then pressed, "Are you sure?"
"Confirmed," the butler replied politely. "We celebrate Mr. Fu's birthday every year on the 10th."
Su Huaiming nodded thoughtfully, the scene from last night involuntarily flashing before his eyes.
If Fu Jingfan's birthday is on the 10th, then why didn't Fu Jingfan correct him when he celebrated Fu Jingfan's birthday last night? Why did Fu Jingfan even ask him for a gift?
Was Fu Jingfan deliberately lying to him?
But if that's the case, why would there be a gift box in Fu Jingfan's study?
Moreover, Fu Jingfan's behavior and gaze last night carried a different meaning; he wasn't joking.
Su Huaiming suddenly remembered Song Hanyu's surprised expression when she saw him and continued to ask, "Did you come to the yacht with Fu Jingfan last year too?"
The butler shook his head. "No, this is the first time."
At this point, he suddenly remembered something, "Sir, he disappears for a day every year around this time. I've never been able to contact him, and I don't know where he goes. This is the first time I've heard that you would come to the yacht."
