After dinner, Fu Chenshan directly drove He Yu home.
Now in the entire Chongfeng City, not to mention the Second Ring Road, even within the Third and Fourth Ring Roads, every inch of land is at a premium. The house Fu Chenshan bought was in such a good location, so the price must be high.
Although he knew that Fu Chenshan was doing well now, He Yu still felt choked in his heart. Even if he didn’t go to jail, he wouldn’t be like Fu Chenshan if he was given three years. But as soon as he thought that Fu Chenshan’s present day was obtained at the cost of his freedom, He Yu felt a little tight in his chest. Don’t get angry.
The car drove all the way into the underground parking lot, and then they took the elevator upstairs. The apartment has two rooms on one staircase, with a total floor height of only seven floors.
It is considered a small bungalow. There is also a roof garden on the top floor, but Fu Chenshan cannot afford it given his current financial strength.
Fu Chenshan’s home is on the fifth floor.
He Yu followed him into the house and saw that the decoration of the house was elegant and unique. It was obvious that a special designer was hired to design it.
Although there are only two bedrooms and one living room, the house is not too small, and there is a large balcony outside the living room, with two lounge chairs and a small round table, and many flowers and plants planted outdoors.
The living room is very clean and simple, with nothing superfluous. It really looks like a single man’s home.
Fu Chenshan took He Yu to the guest room. “You can stay in this room; I asked the cleaning lady to help me change the new sheets.” After saying that, he opened the cabinet again. “I also bought two new sets of pajamas. I bought them in your size.”
In fact, it’s not just pajamas; there are two new boxes of underwear stored in the drawer of the cabinet.
Fu Chenshan had prepared almost all the daily necessities for He Yu. As for the clothes and trousers worn outside, Fu Chenshan planned to take He Yu to buy a few sets tomorrow and let him try them on before buying them.
“Let’s take a shower first.”
He Yu nodded; it was really time for him to take a good bath. He seemed unclean in every sense of the word, and even he felt that he still had the musty prison smell about him.
Fu Chenshan went to help him put out the water and asked him to take a good soak in the bathtub.
He Yu was not very used to taking baths. He would rather stand under the shower and let the hot water rinse him clean.
But he couldn’t bear to refuse Fu Chenshan’s enthusiasm.
When Fu Chenshan walked out of the bathroom, he said to him, “Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay.” He Yu waited for him to leave before closing the bathroom door.
Taking off his clothes one by one, He Yu’s lean and strong body were exposed to the air. There was a wound on his lower back, which was accidentally injured during a group fight in the prison cell. The injury was so deep that it left a long scar.
He Yu stepped into the bathtub and slowly immersed himself in the hot water. The soft and comfortable feeling slowly spread and covered his whole body, making him sigh softly.
How long has it been since he was able to take a bath so leisurely and relaxedly?
He Yu leaned his head back and closed his eyes comfortably.

He Yu drained the water in the bathtub, then took the new underwear from the cabinet next to him and put them on. The bathroom was still filled with mist and steam, so after putting on his pajamas, he didn’t put on his top yet. He walked out, topless.
Fu Chenshan was sitting in the living room. He was stunned when he saw He Yu coming out like this and then said, “Put on your clothes; be careful of catching a cold.”
“Wait a minute,” He Yu muttered. He felt that his body was still moist, and he didn’t know whether it was water or sweat.
He Yu returned to the room and took out the cigarettes and lighter he bought in the afternoon from the pocket of his jacket. When he walked to the living room, he suddenly remembered and asked Fu Chenshan, “Do you mind if I have a cigarette?”
Fu Chenshan stood up, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and looked at him silently.
He Yu avoided Fu Chenshan’s gaze and walked toward the balcony with a cigarette. He leaned on the balcony, lit the cigarette, and took a slow drag, looking at the tall buildings in the distance from here.
After a while, Fu Chenshan came over and put his pajamas on He Yu’s back.
He Yu turned around.
Fu Chenshan said, “It’s cold at night, so put on your clothes.”
He Yu stretched out his hand to put his sleeves in. “Thank you.”
That night, He Yu didn’t sleep peacefully.
The bed in the guest room of Fu Chenshan’s house was very soft, and the surroundings were very quiet. It was even darker when the blackout curtains were lowered. He should have been sleeping well, but He Yu was tossing and turning and couldn’t sleep.
His mind is filled with many things. Even though he knows it’s useless, no matter how much he thinks about it, he still can’t help but do so.
He Yu turned over and reached out to touch the cigarette placed on the bedside. He hesitated and then retracted his hand. He wrapped the quilt tightly, completely surrounding himself, and quietly closed his eyes.
He didn’t know when he fell asleep, and then he kept dreaming. The dream was always about being in prison, a hard wooden bed, and almost tasteless boiled cabbage. Suddenly, he came to the playground again, and there were a few people there. While playing ball, a tall figure approached behind him, touched his butt, and fanned hot breath on his face.
He Yu suddenly woke up and found that his forehead was covered in sweat. He pushed away the quilt a little. Feeling that the darkness in the room was a little too oppressive, he stood up and opened the curtains a little more.
The yellow light of the street lamp suddenly poured into the room. He Yu sat on the window sill and looked outside in confusion.
It wasn’t until the sky slowly dawned that He Yu opened the door and came out. He saw that Fu Chenshan was already up.
When Fu Chenshan saw him, he showed his usual gentle smile and asked, “Did you sleep well?”
He Yu replied, “It’s very good. The environment here is great.”
Fu Chenshan was very happy and asked him to brush his teeth and wash his face. “We will go have breakfast after we finish packing, then drive out for a walk and buy two sets of clothes.”
He Yu didn’t refuse. He really needed two new sets of clothes now. If possible, he would rather go back to his home and put on his old clothes. But the house was gone, and he was not optimistic that his sister would keep his things for him.
The place for breakfast was a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant not far from Fu Chenshan’s residence. He Yu actually wanted to eat some rice porridge and steamed buns instead of milk tea and pineapple buns. However, Fu Chenshan lived his life very delicately. He Yu was now supported by him and was unwilling to break his habit.
After eating, Fu Chenshan drove around the city.
There was some traffic during the morning rush hour, but the two of them were not in a hurry, so it was quite leisurely.
Fu Chenshan drove to He Yu’s former home. He, his mother, and his sister lived in the 60-square-meter apartment in an old residential complex for more than 20 years. Later, his sister got married, and he and his mother were left alone.
At that time, his mother often said that this house was reserved for He Yu to find a wife, but now it has been bulldozed to the ground. The outside is surrounded by a brick wall, with new real estate projects painted on it, probably to build a large commercial and residential complex.
Fu Chenshan did not stop but slowly drove by and then went to his former middle school.
This trip evoked many memories for He Yu, most of which were beautiful. But the better the memories, the more unbearable his current life seems. He Yu can’t refuse Fu Chenshan’s kindness. He can only lower his eyes silently and let the scenery in front of him pass by.
Seeing that it was almost time, Fu Chenshan drove He Yu to buy clothes. The clothing store was the one he often went to.
Looking at the store decoration from the outside, He Yu knew that the prices were definitely not cheap.
Fu Chenshan was in a good mood. He walked slowly in front of the clothes rack and looked through them one by one.
The sales lady was very enthusiastic, followed Fu Chenshan, and kept recommending things to him.
Fu Chenshan smiled and turned around and pointed at He Yu. “Give him an option. Choose a few more sets.”
A young salesperson quickly came over and asked He Yu, “What style of clothes does mister like?”
He Yu raised his head and scanned the store. “Something casual.”
He didn’t need to sit in an office now, so he still wanted to choose clothes that were somewhat comfortable to wear.
The young girl brought him several sets of clothes in succession and said, “Sir, try them all. These are all suitable for you.”
Fu Chenshan came over and said to He Yu, “Go and try it.”
He Yu nodded, grabbed a set, and walked towards the fitting room.
The style of the clothes is casual and decent, and the materials are soft and comfortable, worthy of the expensive price. Even with He Yu’s shaved head, it doesn’t look out of place.
The salesperson said, “This suit makes you look very young, sir; you look like a student in it.”
He Yu in the mirror does look a bit like a student. He looks healthy and energetic. He looks better than the pale and thin look he had back then.
Fu Chenshan stood behind him, looking at He Yu in the mirror and feeling satisfied. He picked up a set of clothes and handed them to him. “Go and try this.”
He Yu tried on five or six sets of clothes in a row.
He has to say that the sales ladies here are very experienced, and the several sets of clothes they chose were very pleasing to the eye when worn on He Yu.
He Yu took a last look and wanted to choose two sets from them, but Fu Chenshan said, “Wrap them all up. I want them all.”
He Yu looked up at him and saw Fu Chenshan smiling. “Cut off the label on this one; wear it.”
The sales lady responded quickly and diligently.
He Yu did not refuse and said to Chenshan, “Thank you.”
This is probably all Fu Chenshan can compensate him for now.
After buying clothes and coming out of the store, Fu Chenshan said to him, “I’ll accompany you to find Sister Ting.”
Before He Yu could refuse, Fu Chenshan’s cell phone rang. “Wait a moment,” he uttered.
It seemed to be a work call.
He Yu heard Fu Chenshan say to the other side, “I’m on vacation today.”
There may be something urgent over there, and the reluctance of either side to compromise continues.
After grinding for a long time, Fu Chenshan couldn’t compromise, “Okay, okay, I’ll be back soon.”
He Yu stood beside him, waited for him to hang up the phone, and said, “Go and do your work. I can go by myself.”
Fu Chenshan seemed a little worried. “Why don’t you wait for me? I’ll accompany you when I’m done here.”
He Yu shook his head. “No need; it’s not like I can’t find the way. You forgot that I grew up in this city.”
Fu Chenshan’s cell phone rang again at this time, and the person on the other end of the phone urged him again.
He had to say yes. Fu Chenshan then took out a key from his pocket and added the door card to his apartment. He handed it to He Yu and said, “You can take a taxi back later. I don’t know how long I will have to be busy.”
“Okay.” He Yu took it.
Fu Chenshan asked again, “How about you drive my car there?”
He Yu smiled and shook his head. “No, I haven’t touched a car in a long time, and I don’t dare to drive it. You go; I can take a taxi myself.”
Fu Chenshan had no choice but to agree. He took two steps away before turning back again to face He Yu. He took out a thousand yuan in cash and handed it to He Yu. “Remember to eat.”
He Yu then said, “Okay.”
The synopsis mentioned that he is married now? But it doesn’t seem like it.. I don’t see a reason to hide it from He Yu though? Something is off here
