chapter 2: finding a new lover and having an affair
when qiao jiusheng heard fang yusheng say that he no longer had a father, a sour feeling spread in her heart.
she hugged fang yusheng back and told him, ” this is how growing up is. we always have to face meetings and farewells, say goodbye to our parents, say goodbye to our friends and family ... ” there was also the bitter life of having to face the scene of white-haired people sending off black-haired people.
“yusheng, hang in there. you’ll be fine after this period of time.”
fang yusheng naturally understood this, but it was one thing to understand, it was another to feel bad.
chi boguang’s death had caused this family to be depressed for a period of time.
however, they had to look forward to the future. about two months later, the good news of gu yiqiu’s pregnancy came. finally, the family that was shrouded in a layer of gloomy clouds became sunny again.
lisa had been a little depressed at first. however, after knowing that gu yiqiu was pregnant, she said, ” i still have to live for a few more years to see my little great-grandson and our ran ran get married. ”
the fang family felt gratified that she had such an idea.
fang zikai held onto lisa’s arm and said, ” grandmother, you have to live for a few more years. we’ll give you a little great-grandson. ” ever since the family planning policy was revised, everyone could have more children. it was a pity that modern young people’s thoughts were ahead of time. they were not willing to have two children, and some even did not want to have children.
it was rare to see young people like fang zikai who responded to the country’s call so actively.
lisa smiled and patted the back of her grandson’s hand. ” then, kaikai, you have to speed up. ”
“alright! when this guy comes out, we’ll have another one the year after.” as soon as he finished speaking, gu yiqiu kicked his calf.
fang zikai quickly turned around and said to her, ” “i’m just trying to make the old man happy, don’t take it seriously.”
gu yiqiu felt helpless towards fang zikai.
fang taoran happened to be at home when lisa said that. when she heard the last part of her sentence, she was particularly depressed. because of chi baoguang’s death, fang taoran didn’t go to wang ye for the past two months.
wang ye had called her a few times, but she didn’t know if he wanted to win her back or if he wanted to comfort her after hearing about chi boguang. fang taoran didn’t really want to see wang ye. she was afraid that if she saw him, she wouldn’t be able to resist killing him.
when fang taoran was studying, he studied stage art design. after graduation, he opened his own studio, which was in its early stages, so he was quite busy. once a person was busy, they didn’t have much time to reminisce about a failed relationship.
some people would choose to numb themselves with alcohol after breaking up, but fang taoran was different. she liked to work and earn money. when he was depressed, he would withdraw the money from his bank account, find a beautiful place, and count the money. no matter how depressed he was, he would always become cheerful.
in this aspect, fang taoran was very much like fang yusheng.
on this day, their studio received an order from a variety channel to design a stage for a new variety show. this variety station was quite famous in the country. it was rare for its variety shows to not be popular.
fang taoran had been discussing this business for the past two months. on the day the contract was signed, fang taoran heaved a huge sigh of relief. when the boss was happy, he would treat his employees to a meal.
fang taoran wasn’t short of money to begin with, so she invited the staff to a thai restaurant with a good reputation.
the group of people ate until their bellies were full, and fang taoran paid out of his own pocket to invite them to karaoke.
the company’s front desk lady was called du qinqin. recently, she was dating a handsome young man in the studio. their relationship had not been officially established and they were in an ambiguous period where they both had a good impression of each other.
when they arrived at the KTV, this ‘ambiguous couple’ chose a song called sweet honey.
the two of them held the microphone and stood in the room, looking at each other affectionately. their singing wasn’t very accurate, and their voices weren’t beautiful, but it still made people envious.
fang taoran had only been out of love for two months, and in her eyes, these two people were really asking for a beating.
when the group of guys got high from singing and gradually lost interest, they switched to playing cards. only then did fang taoran pick a song for himself.
when the prelude started, fang taoran had just started singing a line when the guys in the studio stopped what they were doing and looked up at her. surprisingly, the boss was so beautiful, but she was a slaughterer when she sang.
his singing could kill.
in addition to his looks, fang taoran had inherited fang yusheng’s genes in many aspects. for example, he loved money, and he was tone deaf.

“You-were-my-sun
You-were-my-earth
But-you-didn”t-know-all-the-ways-I-loved-you,no
So-you-took-a-chance
So-you-took-a-chance...”
this was an old song, and the lyrics were very straightforward.
when translated, it probably meant “yingluo.”
you’re my sun, you’re my land, but you don’t know how much i love you, so you cheated on me and found a new lover ...
the employees all stared at fang taoran in shock, wondering who was so blind that they would betray their beautiful boss.
after singing a song, fang taoran threw the microphone away. ” i’ll be leaving first, you guys continue playing! ” he didn’t care what his subordinates thought of him, and left without a second thought.
after leaving the KTV, fang taoran stood on the busy street.
at night, binjiang city was as lively as ever. young couples walked past her hand in hand, laughing and chatting. this made her feel a little upset. fang taoran drove home and saw fang yusheng still sitting in the living room, reading an english book.
“dad, you’re still awake?”
fang yusheng said, ” i was waiting for you. ”
fang taoran stopped in her tracks. then, she turned around and sat down beside fang yusheng.
fang yusheng closed the book and fang taoran glanced at the book on the coffee table. it was about weapons. fang taoran had just retracted his gaze when he heard fang yusheng ask, ” you’ve already broken up with that wang ye? ”
knowing that he couldn’t hide it from fang yusheng, fang taoran didn’t lie anymore and admitted it. “yes, i am.”
“when did this happen?”
“the day grandfather passed away.”
fang yusheng’s expression darkened. he held fang taoran’s hand and patted it. he said, ” it’s good that you broke up. that kid doesn’t deserve you. ”
“yes,” fang taoran said mockingly, ” a dog that can’t change its habit of eating sh * t. how is he worthy of me? ”
fang yusheng wasn’t stupid. after hearing what she said, he understood the reason for their breakup.
“he cheated on his ex?”
“yes.”
“i thought that when you found out the truth, you would fly into a rage and beat him half to death.”
fang taoran said, ” i’ve thought about it. however, when i heard the news of my grandfather’s death, i realized that wang ye was nothing compared to the family i loved.”
