Nan Shiqing's expression turned serious. "I know it's a bit risky, but we can't miss this opportunity. When we sign the mediation agreement, both parties must be present. I'll ask Fu Siye about it in a moment."
After Fu Siye called Mu Yinyin yesterday, he left with a darkened expression.
Although he had said he would come today, she still felt uneasy without seeing him.
Now, it just provided her with an opportunity to ask him to come.
Thus, Nan Shiqing called Fu Siye.
Fu Siye was queuing at Chen Ji Porridge Shop to buy porridge for his grandmother when he received the call.
"Shiqing, what's wrong?"
Fu Siye couldn't help but frown at the early morning call.
Hearing the poor tone in his voice, Nan Shiqing pursed her lips and slowly chose her words. "Siye, the police just called me. They said we need to sign the mediation agreement at 10 o'clock. Will you accompany me?"
She asked cautiously, with a hint of pleading.
Fu Siye's brows furrowed further, but he eventually responded faintly, "Mm." Kai Shu Ge
Since Mu Yinyin would also be present to sign, he wanted to see how arrogant Mu Yinyin could be.
"That will be 43 yuan."
The cashier at Chen Ji suddenly called out, and the sound came through the phone to Nan Shiqing's ears. Nan Shiqing heard it clearly.
She frowned slightly, a little puzzled. "Siye, are you buying something?"
"Mm." Another simple response, terse and cold.
Nan Shiqing was a little surprised. "Ah? You're buying things so early? Are you buying breakfast?"
So early, what could make Fu Siye personally do it? Was it for her, or for Liang Min's breakfast? Nan Shiqing was very confused, and she slowly asked Fu Siye.
Fu Siye replied indifferently, "Mm, I'm buying porridge for Grandma at Chen Ji Porridge Shop."
Nan Shiqing felt relieved and smiled. "Chen Ji! I haven't eaten anything from Chen Ji in a long time. The main reason is that Chen Ji is too popular. Every time I go, there's a long queue..."
"If you want some, I'll bring you a portion," Fu Siye said, his thin lips slowly parting, his tone very calm.
But Nan Shiqing seemed very excited. "Really? It would be great if you're willing to bring me some, Siye!"
"Mm, I'll be at the hospital in about an hour. After you finish your breakfast, we can head over to sign."
"Okay."
Nan Shiqing nodded with satisfaction.
Fu Siye's response indicated that he agreed to accompany her to the police station.
Fu Siye ordered another portion of breakfast, and carried four portions back to the car.
When Liang Min saw him carrying four portions, her brows immediately creased deeply. "You ordered two for me, one for you, and who is this extra one for?"
Liang Min's expression was stern and cold. In her heart, a person had already come to mind.
However, she still wanted to hear Fu Siye say it himself.
Fu Siye's thin lips remained calm, his expression unchanged. "I got it for Mu Teng."
He knew that his grandmother disliked Nan Shiqing. If his grandmother found out that this breakfast was for Nan Shiqing, after being woken up early to queue for it at her insistence, wouldn't the sky fall?
Liang Min let out a cold scoff, seeing through Fu Siye's lie at a glance. "I've asked you to queue for Chen Ji's things many times before, and I've never seen you bring anything for Mu Teng. Why would you bring something for Mu Teng today? Fu Siye, Nan Shiqing alone has made you so muddled. I truly don't understand what makes Nan Shiqing better than Yinyin."
Whenever Nan Shiqing was mentioned, Liang Min's tone and expression soured.
It was because of Nan Shiqing that Fu Siye had abandoned her alone at Qingshan Temple, and now he was getting breakfast for Nan Shiqing too!!
The more Liang Min thought about it, the angrier she became.
Seeing that Liang Min had seen through him, Fu Siye stopped hedging. He said frankly, "Nan Shiqing isn't RMB."
"Even if she were RMB, I wouldn't like her. You haven't taken a single word of what I've told you to heart. Fine, if you won't listen to me, then get out of the car." Liang Min turned her head away, no longer looking at Fu Siye.
Originally, she had intended to bring one of the two portions of breakfast for Mu Yinyin and have Fu Siye send her back, to try and matchmake them again.
But now, it seemed that Fu Siye's heart had already flown to Nan Shiqing. Forcing Fu Siye to go would only cause him trouble. It was better to have Fu Siye get out of the car now!
Fu Siye didn't want to anger her further, so he got out of the car as she wished, not forgetting to carry a portion of breakfast with him.
He even said coldly, "Give my portion to the driver."
Liang Min was instantly choked up.
She didn't take the breakfast to Mu Yinyin either, but directly brought it back to the Fu family.
Elder Fu looked at the breakfast in Liang Min's hand and immediately recognized the 'Chen Ji' logo.
"Oh, is the sun rising from the west today?" Elder Fu was very surprised.
Liang Min had always insisted on cooking herself, ensuring it was green, nutritious, and healthy.
Chen Ji was a brand, but if she wanted to eat it, Liang Min wouldn't personally run over to queue. Yet, here she was, walking in with breakfast from Chen Ji.
Liang Min glared at Elder Fu and let out a cold snort. "What do you mean the sun is rising from the west? It's your grandson who's being stubborn! Are you eating it? If not, throw it to the dogs!"
With that, Liang Min got up and went upstairs.
She was so angry with Fu Siye that she had no appetite.
Behind her, Elder Fu wore a solemn and indifferent expression.
If it's not eaten, it's thrown to the dogs, so what's the difference between him eating it and the dogs eating it...
He had no appetite either!!
...
After Fu Siye got out of the car, he didn't wait for Mu Teng to pick him up. Instead, he hailed a taxi.
He called Mu Teng in the car, asking Mu Teng to wait for him at the hospital entrance.
When Fu Siye appeared before Nan Shiqing, carrying the Chen Ji breakfast, Nan Shiqing's eyes lit up, filled with joy.
His bringing breakfast meant that he still had her in his heart and could do anything for her. Now, she had to maintain her image in his heart and couldn't make any more mistakes.
"Siye, I'm truly touched that you could buy me breakfast from Chen Ji. Thank you..." Nan Shiqing said emotionally, tears welling up in her eyes.
Fu Siye pursed his lips and walked to her side. He opened the small table beside them and placed the Chen Ji breakfast portions one by one in front of Nan Shiqing.
It was a generous spread.
Nan Shiqing also recalled what Fu Siye had said to her.
"Siye, truly, meeting you is the luckiest thing that's ever happened to me," Nan Shiqing said, her voice choked with emotion, her tears even more apparent than before.
Fu Siye's gaze stirred, and he nodded at her. "Eat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
Meeting Nan Shiqing was also his fortune. If Nan Shiqing hadn't saved him, how would he still be alive?
That fire had been raging, filled with smoke...
"By the way, Shiqing, what about that jade Buddha?"
