Chapter 262: Universal Love

"There's no one at my place, and my dad was worried about me being alone, so he told me to come spend the New Year with you."

Shen Ti handed a bank card to Lin Sui, then walked past her, carrying things into Lin Sui's office as he went.

"It's just a small matter, Uncle Shen is being too polite."

The password was still stuck to the card, so there was no need to even ask; Lin Sui smiled and rubbed it against her clothes, terrified that her hands might dirty it.

No wonder he was able to become a leader; when it came to being thoughtful, he was beyond reproach.

"I've noticed you seem very busy lately, is there anything you need me to do?" Shen Ti asked proactively.

He was more than just a little bit normal now; anyone who saw him would feel he was a very secure man.

Times have changed.

"There's nothing much, actually." Lin Sui put the card away, "I'm wondering whether or not to go pick up A Fu when he gets back in a while."

Shen Ti: "?"

The speaker had no intention, but the listener took it to heart.

Shen Ti's expression shifted slightly, "What is he coming back for?"

Lin Sui glanced at him, "What a thing to say, he's a member of the Company, what else would he be doing coming back?"

"Hmph, having been gone for so long, I thought he'd gone home to inherit the family fortune," Shen Ti snorted coldly.

He acted like a spoiled child, somewhat displeased, "Sui Sui~ he's been absent from work without cause for months!"

Lin Sui gave him an 'OK' hand gesture, her face wearing an expression that said she understood everything.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I've already gotten the money from his brother, so let's not bring this up anymore, okay?"

The corner of Shen Ti's mouth twitched slightly, "... Just how rich is Brother Xi?"

Lin Sui sighed with emotion: "To this day, people have no way of knowing just how rich your Brother Xi is."

Shen Ti: "..."

So, can money solve everything for her?

"..." It seems it really can.

Damn it, he couldn't have come back earlier or later, he just had to come back during this specific time.

He could have been enjoying a world for two with Sui Sui, but now, neither of them could have it.

Who said A Fu was simple? He is far too calculating!

Shen Ti silently complained about A Fu.

Just as he was about to say he wouldn't go pick him up, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

The door hadn't been closed anyway, just left ajar, and someone poked their head in, surveying the situation inside the office.

Lin Sui and Shen Ti both thought it was a thief.

Shen Ti instinctively pulled Lin Sui behind him, shielding her.

Nowadays, he was also a strong man capable of protecting others.

Unfortunately, he was facing an adult male known for being able to take down two large black bears when enraged—Feng Liu.

"What are you two doing?"

Feng Liu poked half his body into the office, his gaze sweeping over the two of them.

Lin Sui was a bit surprised, "Why are you back too? Weren't you looking forward to the holiday?"

"I was afraid you'd be lonely and cold all by yourself, so I came back to check on you."

Feng Liu finally let his gaze rest on Shen Ti, "It seems I was overthinking it; you've even started keeping a pretty boy in the office."

Lin Sui nodded, "You're not wrong about that."

Wasn't Shen Ti just a pretty boy she was keeping?

And one his own father had personally delivered into her hands.

Having taken someone's money, one had to keep him well, didn't they?

Feng Liu and Shen Ti: "..."

"You've seen her, she's neither lonely nor cold, can you rest assured and leave now?" Shen Ti said.

Feng Liu walked completely through the doorway, and only then did the two notice he was carrying things in his other hand as well.

"Since it's so lively, I won't leave then. As for the New Year, it's the same wherever you spend it."

He was open and aboveboard, successfully blending in.

"No, don't you have a family?" Shen Ti blurted out.

Feng Liu shrugged, "No."

Shen Ti: "..." I really am a terrible person.

"..."

Lin Sui had witnessed Feng Liu's habit of spouting nonsense, so this might just be a casual remark as well.

But looking at his attitude, she felt it might be true.

Regarding topics like family, it really wasn't convenient to ask whether it was true or false.

Lin Sui was silent for a few seconds, then finally sighed, "Come in, all of you. I'll take in the talented people who have no home to return to."

Shen Ti: "..."

Having A Fu wasn't enough, and now this Feng Liu had to stick his foot in too.

Ah... I'm completely out of the mood.

In the end, Lin Sui still decided to go pick up A Fu.

Fu Xi had sent her a message saying that when A Fu left, he was wearing pajamas and had just thrown on a coat before heading out.

In this deep winter, wouldn't one freeze to death getting off the plane?

It's just right to pick him up and bring him a set of thick clothes.

But...

Lin Sui was driving in the driver's seat, looking through the rearview mirror at Feng Liu and Shen Ti in the back seat, neither of whom wanted to look at the other, and sighed silently.

She just didn't want to take people who ruined the mood out!

As soon as A Fu got off the plane and opened his phone, he received the location sharing sent by Lin Sui.

She actually came to pick him up!

He couldn't wait to rush out of the airport, wanting to see Lin Sui at the very first moment.

Taking advantage of the fact that his excited mood hadn't cooled down yet, he could say he missed her while he was at his most impulsive.

This kind of thing has to be done on impulse; if he calmed down, he wouldn't have the guts.

A Fu had already rehearsed in his heart how he would speak when he saw Lin Sui in a moment.

As a result, when he arrived at the location Lin Sui sent him, the first thing he saw was the luxury car Lin Sui had recently bought.

And, Feng Liu squatting on the side of the road to catch his breath, and Shen Ti leaning against the car door posing for photos.

A Fu: "?"

He was dressed thinly; he hadn't felt cold when he rushed out of the airport just after getting off the plane, but now he couldn't help but shiver.

His heart went cold halfway through.

Why is it those two!

Wasn't it agreed that it would only be her?

A Fu walked over with a blank expression and long strides.

Feng Liu, squatting on the side of the road, saw him immediately.

"Yo, your face is frozen black. Shen Ti, hurry, take out the clothes and give them to him to wear."

A Fu: "..."

It was clearly turned black by being angered by the two of them!

Shen Ti was obedient enough; he opened the car door, took a down jacket from the back seat, and threw it directly at A Fu, who had just walked over.

A Fu held the clothes without speaking and walked to the driver's side door, finally seeing Lin Sui, whom he had been wanting to see.

She didn't look like she had changed at all; she must have been doing quite well during this time.

"Get in the car!"

Before A Fu could say a word, Lin Sui was already calling everyone to get in the car.

This wasn't the time for reminiscing either.

A Fu gave her a resentful look.

Lin Sui's mouth, a deceitful ghost!

After getting into the car.

Seeing that Lin Sui didn't want to explain anything to him, A Fu asked for himself: "Why are you two here? Isn't it a holiday? Why aren't you going home?"

Feng Liu replied casually: "The reason you aren't going home is the reason we aren't going home."

A Fu gathered his courage: "Because Lin Sui said she missed me, so I came back."

Lin Sui: "Cough, cough, cough... ah?"

Fine, that can also be said that way.

"What?!" Shen Ti almost couldn't sit still and wanted to drag A Fu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, out.

"Sui Sui, you..."

He opened his mouth to ask Lin Sui if she had really said such things to A Fu.

Feng Liu suddenly grabbed him, interrupting his words: "That's right, Lin Sui said the same to us; she has always been very broad-minded in her love."

A Fu: "?" So he wasn't the only one at all!

Shen Ti looked at Feng Liu in confusion.

Seeing Feng Liu looking calm, he started to put on an act too: "That's right, the first day I left, Sui Sui called me three times a day saying she missed me."

Heh, who doesn't know how to act tough!

Lin Sui: "... I am a little speechless, but Feng Liu Ge used that word well, broad-minded."

She nodded as if in approval: "I am indeed very broad-minded; I want to give all of you a home."

The three people in the car: "..."
