Fu Xiaoxiao had never dealt with this before and asked curiously, "Do they really need help?"
"They don't have parents around, they don't get good meals, warm clothes, or books. It's very hard for them, so we should donate money to help them."
Fu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "I want to help too, I'll give them all the money."
He paused suddenly, then asked, "Won't Da Qiang and Xiao Mei starve to death?"
Upon hearing this, Su Huaiming remembered that he had promised Fu Xiaoxiao before going on the variety show that he could use the money he earned to buy snacks for the two puppies.
Su Huaiming reached out and patted Fu Xiaoxiao's hair, saying generously, "With me here, I'll take care of all their PDA and snacks."
Fu Xiaoxiao was finally happy and instructed Su Huaiming to make sure to deliver the small amount of money to the children.
After Fu Xiaoxiao left, Su Huaiming finally looked away and noticed that everyone was staring at him.
Su Huaiming touched his face and, finding nothing dirty, asked in confusion, "Why are you all staring at me?"
"Da Qiang and Xiao Mei..." Ji Mingzhe paused, his expression intriguing, "Are they the names of your dogs?"
Su Huaiming nodded. "We just got two puppies, the older one is named Da Qiang, and the younger one Xiao Mei."
"..." This name is really not flattering. Sun Siyuan said with difficulty, "Did Xiao Xiao come up with this?"
"Da Qiang was named by Xiao Xiao." Su Huaiming's expression was completely natural, and he didn't see anything wrong with it. "Xiao Mei was the name I chose."
Everyone: "..."
The living room was silent for a full half minute before Ji Mingzhe finally found his voice, letting out a dry laugh, "This name is quite nice..."
Yu Ruicheng changed his perspective, "Just from the name, you know it's easy to raise. Su Huaiming, your taste is pretty good too."
Upon hearing this, both Sun Siyuan and Zhou Hanyan turned to look at him, as if asking with their eyes, "Don't you feel guilty saying that?"
Su Huaiming sensed the atmosphere, but still felt good about himself.
Fu Xiaoxiao named the dog Da Qiang. If he had chosen a name with a different style, the difference would have been too great. Besides, the name Xiao Mei is more in line with the dog's gender and it's also easy to pronounce.
Sun Siyuan and the others stopped dwelling on the matter. After discussing the donation details, they all returned to their rooms to rest.
This is the last day of filming for the show; tomorrow I can pack my bags and go home.
Sun Siyuan and Yu Ruicheng had other commitments and left early in the morning. Su Huaiming finished breakfast before getting into the car with Fu Xiaoxiao to go home.
As usual, Su Huaiming slept soundly after boarding the plane.
For some reason, he falls asleep very easily when he's on public transport.
Su Huaiming was in first class, where the seats were spacious enough for him to rest well.
After putting on the blindfold, Su Huaiming fell into a deep sleep almost instantly.
Su Huaiming had an unusually good sleep quality and couldn't hear any outside noise. He usually woke up when the plane landed, but this time he woke up coughing.
Su Huaiming opened his eyes groggily, too lazy to move a single finger. He simply pulled his eye mask up a little, just enough to see clearly.
Just as Su Huaiming was about to ask the flight attendant for a glass of water, a hand appeared in his field of vision.
Su Huaiming had just woken up, his mind still foggy. Without thinking about who this person was, he casually took the water glass and drank from it with a straw.
The person was quite considerate and took the water glass from him again. Su Huaiming subconsciously thanked him.
He didn't see the person's face, but the voice sounded somewhat familiar. After taking off the blindfold, he shifted to a more comfortable position, unconsciously rubbed his face against the seat, and drifted back to sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already time to get off the plane.
Su Huaiming is a public figure, and fearing he would cause a commotion at the airport, he covered himself up completely, only revealing his eyes.
With Fu Xiaoxiao under the care of a dedicated person, Su Huaiming didn't need to worry about her and followed behind the crowd, walking slowly forward.
For some reason, Su Huaiming was incredibly sleepy. His eyelids were drooping, his mind was a complete mess, and his body moved on instinct. He almost fell asleep standing up while waiting.
Su Huaiming sensed someone beside him and subconsciously assumed it was someone the butler had arranged to pick him up. He didn't even glance at them and followed them as usual.
When Su Huaiming reached the plaza hall, he yawned, tears clinging to his eyelashes, his vision blurring.
Just then, Su Huaiming suddenly felt a warm hand touch his forehead. His eyes were covered, and he could feel the burning heat of the palm on his thin skin.
The soft fabric of the shirt rubbed against his skin, and his waist was held tightly with an irresistible force, preventing him from taking another step forward.
Su Huaiming was stunned for a moment, his mind not yet fully clear. He forgot to struggle and just blinked, his eyelashes brushing against the skin of the other person's palm.
As his vision gradually cleared and the arm around his waist loosened, Su Huaiming realized that he was facing a pane of glass.
The airport cleaners were very diligent, cleaning the glass until it was spotless. Su Huaiming, who was still quite sleepy, didn't even notice the glass and almost bumped into it.
Su Huaiming thought of the kind person who had just stopped him and turned to look to the side.
Yes... Fu Jingfan.
Fu Jingfan was still dressed in a sharp suit, the fabric without a single wrinkle. With broad shoulders and long legs, he stood in front of Su Huaiming, completely blocking him out. His powerful aura made it hard to ignore his presence.
This was an unexpected turn of events for Su Huaiming. He paused for a few seconds, then said with great surprise, "What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"
Fu Jingfan looked down at Su Huaiming, his eyes dark and filled with indescribable emotions.
Seeing that Fu Jingfan remained silent, Su Huaiming gave a puzzled "hmm," his expression blank.
Fu Jingfan slightly curled the corners of his mouth, as if he was in a good mood, but Su Huaiming saw through his forced smile.
"Let me introduce myself. I was your seatmate on the plane, and we've been traveling together the whole time." Fu Jingfan leisurely enjoyed Su Huaiming's dumbfounded expression, and deliberately asked, "Do you still think it's a coincidence?"
Chapter 54
Upon hearing this, Su Huaiming suddenly remembered what happened on the plane and exclaimed, "So it was you who handed me the water!"
Fu Jingfan did not answer, but Su Huaiming inexplicably read in his expression an implication that "you're only just realizing that now?"
Fu Jingfan had been traveling with him the whole way, and he hadn't even noticed, which was rather absurd. Su Huaiming smiled sheepishly, "I was too sleepy just now and didn't see who was next to me. Besides, I didn't expect you to come back with me."
At this point, Su Huaiming suddenly remembered something and asked in confusion, "How come you ended up on the same plane as me?"
"I have some official business to attend to. I'm returning from a business trip to another city, and my seat on the plane was arranged by my butler."
Upon hearing the word "butler," Su Huaiming immediately understood.
This is very much in line with the butler's usual style.
With Fu Jingfan by his side, Su Huaiming didn't have to worry about anything. He could just follow behind him like a little tail, without having to use his brain at all. Even if he slept the whole way, he could still get home safely.
But Su Huaiming found strange was that he didn't return to the villa this time, but instead went to his apartment in the City Center.
Seeing Su Huaiming's puzzled expression, the butler couldn't hide his smile and explained, "Your room is under renovation and not convenient to move in. We'll have to make do with the apartment for the next few days."
"Renovation?" Su Huaiming was even more confused.
His room—or rather, suite—was already understatedly luxurious enough; did it really need renovation?!
The housekeeper seemed to have thought of something, and his expression became ambiguous. "There was a scheduling conflict before, which is why you had to stay in a separate room. After you went to record the variety show, Mr. Fu had the rooms combined to make it a shared bedroom for you, and he kept asking about the progress. He was very thoughtful."
The butler spoke with great enthusiasm, deliberately lowering his voice, "You must pretend you don't know; this is a surprise Mr. Fu wants to give you."
This isn't a surprise, it's a shock.
Su Huaiming couldn't understand why Fu Jingfan would suddenly want to live with him, but after the two rooms were combined, the area was frighteningly large, and he should still have his own space. With that thought, Su Huaiming instantly stopped caring.
When Su Huaiming arrived at the apartment, he saw the bedroom he shared with Fu Jingfan and realized that the two of them would be sleeping together that night.
He had the "deep love for Fu Jingfan" buff, so he had no reason to refuse, but Fu Jingfan probably had a strong sense of territory and probably didn't want to sleep with him.
Moreover, this bed is over two meters long, so even if he only uses half of it, the space is spacious enough not to affect his sleep.
Su Huaiming's focus was on sleep quality; to him, Fu Jingfan was nothing more than a large pillow taking up space on his bed.
Su Huaiming and Fu Jingfan remained calm, neither mentioning going to bed that night. As the night deepened, Su Huaiming sat in the bedroom watching a movie, while Fu Jingfan worked in the study.
After Fu Xiaoxiao fell asleep, the nanny stayed in the children's bedroom and did not come out to disturb Fu Jingfan. The room was quiet, with only the dim light on the table shining.
After finishing his official duties, Fu Jingfan looked exhausted. He casually took off his glasses, rubbed the bridge of his nose, and let out a long sigh.
He took a shower, changed into his pajamas, and went back to his bedroom.
Compared to the usual closing time, it was already very early, but the room was dimly lit, with only the bright moonlight filtering through the white gauze curtains, leaving a transparent path of light in the air.
Fu Jingfan stood at the doorway and could only see the blanket slightly raised. When he got closer, he saw that Su Huaiming was sleeping.
Su Huaiming sank into the soft mattress, his hair disheveled with a fuzzy texture, his translucent skin whiter than moonlight.
Her thick, curled eyelashes cast soft shadows; her breathing was light and shallow; her red lips gleamed.
Su Huaiming was a very well-behaved sleeper. He would cover his shoulders with the blanket, his chin resting on the soft fabric, and he wouldn't change his position for a long time.
Almost no one feels as blissful as Su Huaiming, simply from a good night's sleep. Looking at his sleeping face brings a moment of peace to Fu Jingfan's heart. Fu Jingfan also temporarily forgets his complicated official duties and stops thinking all the time.
He glanced at the clock and roughly understood Su Huaiming's schedule—it was earlier than he had imagined.
Fu Jingfan stared intently at Su Huaiming's sleeping face, his expression obscuring the darkness.
He stepped to the other side, making almost no sound, and lifted the blanket to lie down, but was dazzled by the expanse of white skin.
Su Huaiming was only wearing a pair of loose shorts, revealing his shapely calves. Thin muscles covered his bones, so slender that they seemed like they could be encircled by a single hand. His ankles were delicate and beautiful, with a faint pink hue at the joints, giving them a unique glow.
The bed sheets were pure black, which made Su Huaiming's skin appear even whiter, creating a strong visual contrast.
Fu Jingfan paused, his gaze shifting from the exposed skin to Su Huaiming's peaceful sleeping face.
Su Huaiming looked like he was sleeping so peacefully, but under the covers he was lying at an angle.
He encroached on Fu Jingfan's territory, taking up more than two meters of the bed.
Fu Jingfan stood by the bed, speechless for a moment.
If he wanted to sleep, he would have to move Su Huaiming away. There was plenty of space behind Su Huaiming, but the pillow was there and difficult to move.
Perhaps Fu Jingfan's gaze made Su Huaiming uncomfortable. He mumbled something indistinctly, rubbed his cheek against the pillow in front of Fu Jingfan, and then moved back a little.
His head, which was originally wedged between the two pillows, is now firmly resting on his pillow, as if to show Fu Jingfan that this is his territory.
Su Huaiming is over 1.7 meters tall, so it's quite impressive that he can take up a bed that's over two meters long.
Fu Jingfan remained silent for a few seconds, then bent down slightly, his figure covering Su Huaiming's exposed calves.
He reached out and easily grasped Su Huaiming's ankle.
