I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 114: The Forbidden Game

"Men who like children are all very responsible for their families." Xia He nodded and smiled.

"Xiao Fang, find a beautiful wife in the future and give birth to a beautiful daughter or a smart son, or even twins!"

"I haven't even started conceiving yet, so you should give birth to twins." Fang Qingye replied.

"Me?" Xia He's face darkened. "I'm afraid... Forget it. Let's drink this cup!"

Seeing Xia He holding up the wine glass again, Fang Qingye wanted to dissuade her but thought better of it.

I can't even match his alcohol tolerance, so why should I try to persuade him?
I guess everyone will be fine after finishing this bottle.

The two continued to eat and chat, and talked about personal hobbies. Fang Qingye remembered the electronic keyboard in the study and asked, "Senior sister, do you like playing the electronic keyboard?"

"Yes, when I was in college, I was the keyboardist of a band in our school." Xia He said with a smile.

"Really?"

"That's right. I've loved music since I was a kid, especially folk and rock. When I was in college, I formed a band with a bunch of like-minded people called Sunflower. But we only lasted two years before we disbanded after graduation."

"I heard the name of this band when I was in college. I heard that it was very famous at that time," said Fang Qingye.

"Really? I didn't expect that even though I'm gone, there are still legends about me in the school." Xia He said with a hint of pride.

"How about, senior sister, play a song for me." Fang Qingye immediately became interested.

"Sure, but I'm not the lead singer of the band."

"It's okay. We went to KTV at work before New Year's Day. I thought you sang very well." Fang Qingye said.

"OK then."

Xia He stood up and went to the study, sat down at the electronic keyboard, plugged it in, adjusted a few notes, and started singing while playing.

Silent you, the bleak forest in the sunlight

Those you love are so gentle

I am ignorant, lonely and dejected like a fallen leaf
The disillusioned years are interspersed with the silent present
The youth that whizzed by, you who remained silent.
"The Forbidden Game" by Bi Ge

Fang Qingye had naturally heard this song before, and now that it was sung by a female voice, it had a different feeling.

After Xia He finished playing and singing, Fang Qingye said, "Senior sister, you really have some skills. Do you like Li Zhi's songs?"

"Yeah, it sounds pretty good. What do you think?" Xia He asked.

“It sounds nice.”

Fang Qingye doesn't have any particular preference when it comes to music. He listens to pop, folk, and rock. He listens to everything from the popular and earthy songs of Phoenix Legend to the niche and high-end songs of Li Zhi.

After playing and singing a song, he returned to the dining table. After finishing the meal, Fang Qingye helped to clean up the dishes, sat for a while, and then said goodbye and left.

The car is left in Xia He's community. You can come and pick it up tomorrow.

It was a cold day, so Fang Qingye didn't walk but took a taxi back home. When he got home, his parents were already watching TV in the living room.

"Xiao Ye, you sent me a text message saying that you went to your senior sister, the bank president's house to pay New Year's greetings?" Mom Zhang Meili was cracking melon seeds as usual.

"Yes, she is teaching a class these two days, so she came back to Nanxin." Fang Qingye sat down, picked up an apple, and ate it while watching TV.

Zhang Meili felt a little strange when she heard this: "Her family lives in Huijing, so why would she be assigned to take charge of the class for two days? She's all alone in Nanxin."

"President Su and I also advised her not to lead the class during the New Year, but she is the top leader. What can we say if she insists on leading the class herself?" Fang Qingye replied.

"Something's wrong." Zhang Meili shook her head.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Meili didn't answer but asked Fang Jianwen next to her: "Jianwen, if you were the boss in another place, would you arrange for yourself to lead the class during the Spring Festival?"

"Of course not." Zhang Jianwen said with a smile: "This, my colleagues can understand. As long as you worry more about the company, they won't say anything. Who doesn't have a family?" "That's right, this shows a problem!" Zhang Meili looked at her son again: "Your President Xia has family problems! It's probably a conflict between husband and wife! That's why she would rather stay alone in Nanxin than return to Huijing!"

In fact, Fang Qingye also felt it from the conversation during dinner today.

But this is someone else's private matter, Xia He doesn't want to talk about it, and she can't dig into it.

"Mom, what's the point of you analyzing this for me?" Fang Qingye asked.

"Women like this are very dangerous. Besides, your senior sister is so beautiful. You must be careful, son."

"Mom, why would I be a third party?" Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"What if she's divorced? As the saying goes, a woman three years older than your husband is a treasure! But she is eight years older than you and is a divorced woman! Son, I don't want to have a daughter-in-law like this." Zhang Meili warned.

Fang Jianwen next to him disagreed.

"Meili, what are you talking about? Is our Xiaoye that kind of person?!"

"I'm just giving you a heads-up!" Zhang Meili replied, adding, "Xiaoye, I think you and Xiaoou are doing great."

"You are not allowed to look for Shirakawa Tetsu's daughter!" Fang Jianwen suddenly said in a stern voice.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became disharmonious.

Seeing this, Fang Qingye quickly changed the subject: "Mom and Dad, let's not talk about this. How are you looking at houses? Do you have any that you like?"

"Yes!" Fang Jianwen's expression softened. "Your mother and I looked at a multi-story apartment in Yushuiwan Community. It's on the fourth floor with an elevator. It has three bedrooms and two living rooms and is 123 square meters. The layout is quite good."

"Yu Shui Bay? Is it the high-end real estate project just developed by Song Dahai's father's company?" Fang Qingye asked back.

"Exactly! We went house hunting today and happened to run into their company's vice president, whose surname is Luo. When he heard we were buying, he gave us a 3200% discount! The average price per square meter is only yuan, which is cheaper than those ordinary properties without elevators!"

There was a hint of pride in Fang Jianwen's tone.

"Hey, hey, do you think Mr. Luo is doing you a favor? He heard you bought the house for Xiaoye, so he gave you this price! He's doing it for Xiaoye's sake!"

Fang Jianwen was embarrassed and angry when his wife ruthlessly exposed the truth: "Nonsense! Aren't my son and I the same?!"

"Yes, my dad is right, it's all the same, all the same." Seeing that his parents were about to argue again, Fang Qingye hurried to smooth things over.

"Mom and Dad, it's nothing, I'm going back to my room." Fang Qingye said as he stood up and walked towards his room.

"Xiao Ye, remember what mom said, don't touch your senior sister, the bank president!"

"You are not allowed to look for Shirakawa Tetsu's daughter!"

Fang Qingye hurried into his bedroom and closed the door with a bang.

The world finally quieted down.

Why.
This is the disadvantage of going back to the county town. You have to listen to your parents' teachings and nagging all the time.

After the eight-day Spring Festival holiday, Fang Qingye went back to work.

Although the holiday is over, the New Year is not over yet. During the holiday, I mainly visit relatives, and after work, I visit friends and colleagues. I work during the day and socialize at night.

Just this afternoon, Fang Qingye received a call from Song Dahai as soon as he got to work.

"Ye Zi, don't have any other activities tonight. I want to treat you!" Dahai's voice sounded a little excited on the phone.

Song Dahai has many friends and is generous, so treating people to meals is a common occurrence for him, but today he was obviously a little too excited.

"Is there something good to celebrate?" Fang Qingye felt it keenly.

"Yes!" The other party answered very happily: "Let me tell you, I am now the captain of the second squadron!"
