"It's past seven. Have you eaten?"
"No." She shook her head.
"Angla just let you starve like this?" He frowned.
"Don't blame her. I said I would wait for you." Tang Feifei opened her eyes a little, "Aren't you still hungry too?"
"What do you want to eat? I'll ask Angla to buy it. Or, I can take you back now."
"Are you staying at home tonight?"
"I still have work to do. I'll go back to the company after I drop you off."
"Can't you take these jobs back home?"
He shook his head. “It’s not that simple.”
Tang Feifei didn't want to leave. She liked the feeling of being by his side. "Then I'll stay here too."
"What are you doing here?"
"I'll work overtime with you, and when you're done we'll go home together, saving you the trouble of running back and forth."
“I don’t know when I’ll have to add more.”
"That's fine. I'll just sleep when I'm tired." Tang Feifei stretched and tried to sit up from the sofa. But she had slept for too long and half of her body was numb. When she moved, before she could sit up, her body went numb and she fell down again.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yu asked her.
"I slept too long and my arms are numb." She rubbed her arms.
Tang Yu stood up, held her small shoulders and pushed her up, then grabbed a pillow and put it behind her, "Wake up and think about what you want to eat. Put on your clothes first."
Tang Feifei sat there for a while, feeling a little more relaxed, and smiled sweetly at him, "Brother, do you agree to let me stay here with you and work overtime?"
He didn't comment, "Don't complain about being bored later."
Bored? She could just look at him like this for the whole day without getting bored.
The phone she put in her bag was ringing, so Tang Yu took it out for her. Tang Feifei took a look and stuck out her tongue, "It's Mom. She must be blaming me for not going back and not calling her."
"Give it to me." Tang Yu reached out.
She naturally felt relieved that someone was protecting her from the wind and rain, and happily handed the phone to him.
Tang Yu answered, "Well, she's in my company... I just took her out and left her phone here. I was negligent... I had dinner here... Well, I'll take her home later, you guys go to bed first."
After a few words, she hung up. Tang Feifei asked, "Mom is not angry, right?"
"Why get angry about such a small matter? Just explain it clearly." He handed the phone back to her.
"That's for you. Mom is partial to you, brother. You can do whatever you want and whatever you say is right. But I'm different."
Tang Yu called Angla in on the intercom, and then said to her, "You are the apple of your parents' eyes, so don't mess around outside."
After a pause, he looked at her seriously again and said, "Don't do anything to make them uncomfortable. They are old."
Tang Feifei looked at Tang Yu with confused eyes. She felt that there was something else behind his words. Just as she was about to ask, Angla knocked on the door and came in.
"Mr. Tang, Feifei." She greeted.
Tang Yu nodded to Angla with his chin and said to Tang Feifei: "Tell her what you want to eat."
Tang Feifei ordered the food and also ordered for Tang Yu. When Angla left, he had already sat on the sofa and started to get busy.
He had been concentrating on reading the documents. Tang Feifei wanted to ask what he meant by that, so she called him tentatively, "Brother."
"Let Angla get you an iPad to play with." He didn't even raise his head while speaking, as if he was coaxing a child. His eyes were always focused on the documents.
Tang Feifei sighed and swallowed back all the questions she was about to ask.
He is busy with so many things all day long, and it is really unreasonable for her to bother him with such a little love.
——
Tang Yu sat on the couch, and Angla brought him the meal. During the entire meal, he didn't say much, and was always thinking about work, and he ate absent-mindedly.
"Brother, have you encountered any difficult problems?"
"Yeah, it's okay."
"Is there anything I can help you with?" She really wanted to help him share some of the burden.
Tang Yu looked at her and chuckled, "What can you do? You're lucky to be able to handle yourself and not worry my parents and me."
"Don't look down on me." Tang Feifei pouted unhappily, "I've already made up my mind. After I finish college, I will come to the company to help you."
"I appreciate your kindness, but you should find a less busy job."
Tang Feifei put down her chopsticks. "You always ask me to find an easy job, as if I am a person who is afraid of heavy work. Why didn't you let your sister-in-law find an easy job before? She has always been helping you."
Tang Yu looked at her gloomily, frowning, "You like to mention her so much, do you really want me to remarry her?"
Tang Feifei was so angry that she was speechless for a moment. Then...
"It's up to you, remarry if you want!"
After saying that, he turned around, took the iPad and sat far away.
Tang Yu tapped the table with his chopsticks, "Put down the iPad and come over to finish your meal."
Tang Feifei pretended not to hear and turned on her iPad to watch TV. Tang Yu stared at her for two seconds without any response, then he opened his mouth and said, "Tang, Fei, Fei!"
She looked up at his expression, finally, bit her lip, put down the iPad, and sat back reluctantly.
She didn't say anything else. Tang Yu picked up some food for her and said, "Don't put down your chopsticks and not eat when you're angry. Look at how thin you have become."
Tang Feifei pouted.
After eating, Tang Yu continued to work.
Tang Feifei initially stayed by his side watching TV series. Although she had a lot of objections to his recent remarriage, she felt indescribably at ease being in the same space with him.
Slowly, as she watched, she began to feel sleepy again. She tilted her body and fell on Tang Yu's shoulder.
He was originally concentrating on reading a document when he felt a weight on his shoulders and a whiff of fragrance floated up to him, and he was suddenly distracted.
I lowered my eyes and saw that she was sleeping soundly.
Her long eyelashes drooped, leaving a light shadow under her eyes. After a day's work, the light makeup on her face was gone, revealing her fair and clear skin, which glowed white under the light.
Her little head rested on his shoulder, but it didn't seem comfortable. She mumbled indistinctly, moved her body, and curled up on the sofa. She moved his strong thighs with her hands in a daze and stuffed them under her head as a pillow.
Tang Yu's breathing became a little heavier. He glanced at the pillow beside him, but finally gave up.
Forget it, just let her be!
As an older brother, he hasn't fulfilled his responsibilities as an older brother for even a single day in the past three years. Now he's just lending her his leg as a pillow, which isn't too much.
Tang Yu tried his best to ignore her influence on himself and turned his attention back to the document.
