Chapter 1352 Disagree
Fu Yanchen stared at Xu Xiaoxiao, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.
After a long time, he finally opened his lips slowly, and the low voice seemed to come from the depths of his heart, with a hint of loneliness and helplessness.
"Xiaoxiao," he said softly, "I told you before that we are a family. No matter what difficulties and hardships we encounter, we should face them together and bear them together."
When Xu Xiaoxiao heard this, her heart trembled.
She lowered her head, not daring to meet Fu Yanchen's fiery gaze, for fear that he would see the panic and fatigue in her eyes.
She knew that Fu Yanchen was a very careful person, and any slight change in emotion would not escape his eyes.
She bit her lower lip lightly, finally mustered up her courage, and her voice trembled slightly:
"I...I just said that casually. Recently, I...I may not have time to meet you recently."
Fu Yanchen was so happy, this was a confession.
Xu Xiaoxiao didn't notice the smile on Fu Yanchen's lips, and continued, "Fu Yanchen, you now understand my situation,"
"OK, I understand."
Fu Yanchen nodded. Now Xu Xiaoxiao was willing to tell him the truth... This was a good start. Although they had already "been honest with each other" a long time ago, that was all his wishful thinking. Now, Xu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to talk to him... This was a good thing.
"Fu Yanchen, you should know that I don't have the ability to clone myself. I was very busy during the time when the old lady was here. I had to take care of her at night and the store during the day. You should just stay in your hotel during this time, or go back to the capital, right?"
Fu Yanchen, this is to drive him away, but, now he is not thinking about this problem, but Xiaoxiao is so tired now, he feels distressed, "Xiaoxiao, you are so tired, I feel distressed."
Xu Xiaoxiao, is this what he should focus on?
"Fu Yanchen, look, although I am the only one living in this house now, the guest room is too shady and very humid. Such an environment is not good for the health of the elderly. The old lady will definitely feel very uncomfortable. I originally wanted her to sleep in my master bedroom and I would live in the guest room, but she just disagreed. What should I do?"
After Fu Yanchen heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "Don't say your grandma doesn't agree. I also don't agree to let you live in such a humid place. Your health is not very good to begin with. If you live in that kind of environment, your condition will definitely get worse."
There was a hint of worry in his tone. Fu Yanchen didn't have any good feelings towards the old lady. He didn't care about her before, and now that no one was taking care of her, she came back again.
Xu Xiaoxiao... "No, Fu Yanchen, please listen to me."
"Well, you go ahead." Fu Yanchen nodded.
"The old lady has lived here for a long time, and I think she must feel a lot of inconvenience and discomfort. Therefore, I have been thinking carefully these two days whether I should move to a more spacious and comfortable residence so that she can live more comfortably. Not only that, I also plan to hire a professional nanny for her to take care of her daily life and ensure that she can get good care."
"Since last night, I have been like a madman, busy as a madman, unable to rest for a moment. Working in the coffee shop during the day and rushing home to take care of the old lady at night. This continuous high-intensity work makes me feel that my body and mind have reached their limits, as if I may collapse at any time. The most important thing is that the old lady is not satisfied with my cooking."
As he spoke, Xu Xiaoxiao rubbed his temples unconsciously, his expression full of fatigue and helplessness.
Her eyes swept across Fu Yanchen, then quickly moved away, as if she was afraid that she would sink in these affectionate eyes.
When Fu Yanchen saw this, he felt an indescribable pity in his heart.
He stretched out his hand to smooth Xu Xiaoxiao's frown, but she slightly turned her body to avoid his move.
Xu Xiaoxiao forced a smile, which was filled with too much bitterness and strength: "I really have to go back. The old lady is asleep now, so I'll take a nap to calm down. The old lady might do something in the second half of the night. As her granddaughter, I have to stay by her side, right?"
"I'll take you back. I'm worried about your current condition."
Along the way, both of them were silent. Xu Xiaoxiao felt mixed emotions, gratitude towards Fu Yanchen, but also helplessness and sighs about her current situation.
Fu Yanchen secretly made up his mind that no matter what, he would help Xu Xiaoxiao share some of the burden and make this home full of warmth and laughter again.
Fu Yanchen drove the car slowly, passing through the dimly lit streets. The night was as dark as ink, and the starlight shone through the car window onto his profile, outlining his deep contours.
His eyes were sometimes solemn, sometimes flickering, as if he was weighing an important decision in his mind.
Soft classical music was playing in the car, but it didn't seem to calm his inner turmoil at all.
He bit his lower lip lightly, his eyes unconsciously looking out the window, thinking to himself:
"Should we persuade Xu Xiaoxiao to bring her elderly grandmother back to the Fu family in the imperial capital? In this way, Xiaoxiao won't have to work so hard, running between the coffee shop and home every day, taking care of her grandmother while also taking care of the business. Besides, the medical conditions in the imperial capital are far superior to those here, which will also be good for her grandmother's health."
Thinking of Xu Xiaoxiao's face that always had a gentle smile and her eyes that looked a little tired due to overwork, Fu Yanchen felt an indescribable pity in his heart.
He knew that Xu Xiaoxiao was a very filial girl. She would take care of strangers, let alone her grandmother.
But precisely because of this, he hoped even more that she could live an easier life and not have to bear such a heavy burden.
"As for the coffee shop here," Fu Yanchen thought silently in his mind, "she can leave it to the people in the shop to take care of it. Sister Na is a good candidate. She is experienced and warm-hearted. She will definitely be able to run the coffee shop in an orderly manner."
Now that the idea had been decided, Fu Yanchen seemed to feel a lot more relaxed.
He sighed softly, slowly parked the car on the side of the road, and looked at Xu Xiaoxiao.
"Smile..."
"What's wrong?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Fu Yanchen and asked. The familiar and warm voice was like a spring breeze that instantly blew away the haze in his heart.
"Xiaoxiao," Fu Yanchen's voice was as gentle as a breeze, but with an unshakable firmness, "Have you ever seriously considered whether to take your grandmother back to the imperial capital? After all, there are more superior living environments and conditions there. Whether it is for your personal development or for your grandmother's later life, it is undoubtedly a very good choice."
As he said this, he nervously waited for the other party's response, fearing that his proposal would burden or trouble her.
After Xu Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment,,,,
