Although the collapse of Yingteng didn’t affect the foundations of the Tang family, it struck a severe blow to Tang Tianyang.
Not to mention the losses, the decision-making mistakes alone were enough to make Tang Tianyang unable to get a position in the board of directors.
Those old men on the board of directors would only say a few words of relief in front of him, saying that it was normal for young people to make mistakes, and that it was only a matter of further training, but behind his back, they were comparing him to Tang Zhou and felt sorry for Elder Tang.
Tang Zhihua was also very disappointed.
He let Tang Tianyang take over this project, not because he completely trusted him, but because he wanted to train him, use that as an exercise.
But the price of this training was a bit high.
He looked at the young man in front of him who was hanging his head in shame and said, “You were indeed careless this time.”
Tang Tianyang suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with resentment. “Grandpa, Tang Zhou must have done it on purpose!”
At that time, Elder Tang already knew about that, but he still didn’t stop it! How can this be blamed on him alone!
Tang Zhihua remained unmoved. “Did he force you to cooperate with Yingteng?”
Tang Tianyang was still young and hot-tempered. “But didn’t Grandpa also think that Yingteng was a good choice at the time?”
Tang Zhihua’s turbid eyes flashed with a sharp light.
“If you need someone to advise you on everything you decide, how can you be on your own in the future? Learn from your mistakes and grow from them. This time you suffered a loss, so next time, investigate thoroughly before making a decision.”
This was certainly reasonable, but Tang Tianyang always felt something was wrong.
He didn’t think Elder Tang would spend so much money to teach him a lesson.
In the end, it was because even he couldn’t see the trap!
Tang Tianyang suppressed the dissatisfaction in his eyes. “I understand.”
Tang Zhihua waved his hand, letting him out.
After he left, he sighed and asked Uncle Fang with a wry smile, “Am I really getting old?”
Uncle Fang knew that he didn’t really want an answer, so he just sighed and didn’t answer.
“You tell me, have I done anything wrong?”
Thinking about what had happened in the past six months, Tang Zhihua felt a little dazed. In this vast courtyard, except for himself and his old friends, there were only a few silent and taciturn servants left.
A home that’s not a home.
When a person gets old, they hope to have a happy family and live together for the new generations to come.
Tang Zhihua was very ambitious when he was young and didn’t value much his own family, otherwise he wouldn’t have raised Tang Zhen to be such an unpromising person.
In his old age, even with billions of dollars, he often felt empty.
It seemed that the most peaceful and harmonious days in his life were still the twenty years after Tang Zhou was born.
Watching that little child grow up step by step into what he’s today, calling him grandpa obediently and affectionately left Tang Zhihua touched.
It’s a pity that child still chose the wrong path.
He sighed again. “In a few days it’ll A-Zhou’s birthday. Let him come back and have dinner.”
Uncle Fang replied, “Alright.”
When he received Uncle Fang’s call, Tang Zhou was playing with Fu Shen on the sofa, pressing him down and exchanging kisses.
The ringing of the phone went on for a long time before the two of them parted.
Tang Zhou pursed his lips, feeling a little numb.
He reached out to take the phone and lay on Fu Shen’s chest, his voice hoarse. “Uncle Fang, what’s the matter?”
Uncle Fang: “Young Master Zhou, your birthday is coming up soon. The chairman is inviting you back home to have a meal together.”
Tang Zhou stroked the man’s Adam’s apple with one hand, somewhat absenly. “Tell Grandpa that I have something to do that day and won’t have time to go back.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Uncle Fang: “You can also come back at night to eat together.”

But when a person dies, the family business couldn’t be taken away. The longing for family, however, could linger for a long time.
As a bystander, Uncle Fang saw this more clearly than anyone else.
He sighed and smiled. “Don’t worry, I will take good care of the chairman.”
In this family, only Young Master Zhou had the softest-heart. Unfortunately, the chairman has broke Young Master Zhou’s heart, and this kind of things can’t be undone.
As soon as Tang Zhou hung up the phone, his hand was grabbed by someone.
He threw away his phone, propped himself up and looked down at Fu Shen, rubbing his fingertips against the other’s palm, deliberately saying, “What for?”
He did something back, and even reported himself.
Fu Shen’s face turned red. “It’s time for bed.”
Tang Zhou: “It’s only nine o’clock.”
“I have to go back to work.” Fu Shen felt that since they had spoken openly, the person in his arms had become even more unbridled.
Even more clingy than before.
He was happy to see it, but how could a young man’s body withstand such provocations? Not surrendering immediately could be considered as a demostration of very impressive endurance.
Of course Fu Shen didn’t want to hold back, but he had set a hurdle for himself in his heart.
With the existence of this hurdle, he can force himself to focus more on the project.
Every day he thought about hurrying up, going even faster! faster!
Tang Zhou knew that he had been working hard on the project recently, and knew that he wanted to prove himself, but seeing him work so hard was something he still couldn’t bear.
“You can’t take any vacation at all for National Day?”
Fu Shen smiled. “The crew didn’t take a vacation either.”
Tang Zhou: “…” He was speechless.
Fine, his lover was working so hard, and he couldn’t always stop him.
On the day before his birthday, Tang Zhou drove to Jiang University to pick up Fu Shen from school.
On his way back, he received a call from Lu Ye.
“Tomorrow is your birthday, what are you planning to do to celebrate?”
Tang Zhou: “Work during the day, have dinner with Fu Shen at night.”
Lu Ye: “That’s it?”
“What else? Should I throw a feast that lasts for a few days and nights?” Tang Zhou joked.
Lu Ye: “……”
He felt that Tang Zhou had really changed a lot. He used to be quiet, but now he even makes jokes.
Surely it’s true that people who are in love change.
“You didn’t even think about inviting us over? Don’t you consider us friends anymore?”
Tang Zhou smiled and said, “Fine, let’s do something together.”
“Okay, see you tomorrow night.”
After hanging up the phone, Tang Zhou’s lips curled up into a smile.
But this good mood vanished into thin air when he returned to his doorstep.
Zheng Qiuyi and Zheng Xue were standing at the door, and their eyes lit up when they saw him.
Tang Zhou stood in front of them, his expression indifferent. “What are you doing here?”
Zheng Xue looked at him timidly, then stole a glance at Fu Shen, and handed over the box she was holding. “Ge, gege, my mom and I made a cake for you.”
The little girl had a round face and round eyes, and she was very cute. Her gaze at Tang Zhou was mixed with admiration and worship.
Zheng Qiuyi, on the other hand, simply stared at him, tears welling up in her eyes.
Tang Zhou asked, “Didn’t you say you were going abroad?”
Zheng Qiuyi forced a smile. “I have a flight the day after tomorrow.”
She knew her son didn’t want to see her, but she couldn’t help but come.
Tang Zhou had been softened by love recently. Moreover, his birthday was also Zheng Qiuyi’s birthday.
Even if there was no nurturing grace, there was still the grace of birth.
Thinking about how Zheng Qiuyi endured the pain of childbirth to give birth to him, Tang Zhou couldn’t really be that cold and hard to her.
He reached out and took the cake. “Thank you.”
Zheng Xue smiled cheerfully, and Zheng Qiuyi also smiled, unable to hold back the words in her heart. “Can we have dinner together tomorrow?”
Tang Zhou: “……” How come one after another are looking for him to have dinner?
His expression was calm, but his words were sharp. “For so many years, only he has cooked for me.”
Tang Zhou held Fu Shen’s hand, his eyes very calm. “Tomorrow I want to be with him.”
Other than here, other places are not home.
Zheng Qiuyi was silent for a moment, and then said something unexpected. “If you guys get married, can you tell me when the time comes?”
Marriage?
Tang Zhou was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about this before. He thought that two men living together meant they were together.
He said calmly, “Okay.”
Zheng Qiuyi and Zheng Xue were unable to enter the house after all. Before they left, they looked back at Tang Zhou many times with reluctance.
If it had been in the past, Tang Zhou would still have longed for family affection, but now that he had Fu Shen, and someone who loved him, that feeling was gone.
He neither hated nor loved.
After entering the house, they were still holding hands.
Tang Zhou scratched his palm, “I guess Lu Ye and Qiao Yuan will come tomorrow. Why don’t we go out to eat?”
Fu Shen, however, asked, “Have you ever celebrated your birthday before?”
“I celebrated it when I was ten years old and when I was eighteen.”
Fu Shen pulled him to the sofa and sat down, his eyes gentle. “How was it?”
“A lot of people came to the house.” Tang Zhou didn’t want to recall the past, and he didn’t like the scheming and intrigue behind the scenes.
“Since Lu Ye and the others are coming, why don’t we call a few more people?” Fu Shen suggested.
Tang Zhou raised his eyebrows. “You mean Pi Xiu and the others?”
“Yes, I don’t have class in the afternoon tomorrow. I’ll pick you up after work.”
Tang Zhou gave him a peck on the lips, his smile both docile and soft. “Okay.”
Fu Shen held him by the nape of his neck and deepened the kiss.
After dinner, Fu Shen opened his mouth for the first time. “Do you want to play games tonight?”
Tang Zhou was surprised. “You’re not working tonight?”
Fu Shen smiled. “I want to relax.”
“Let’s play.”
Tang Zhou hadn’t played games in a long time, and his little healer was still pitifully underleveled.
After washing up, the two of them logged into the game in their respective rooms.
The F God of the Jianghu led Xiao Tianzhou, on a journey of leveling up and fighting monsters, once again dazzling the onlookers.
“I haven’t seen the two of them online for so long, I thought they were just blowing smoke.”
“Who said not, I didn’t expect this melon to have a sequel.”
“Where is F God! Please provide coordinates!”
Tang Zhou never paid attention to the world forum when he played games, and he didn’t know that he and Fu Shen had already been watched and discussed by others.
The little healer skipped along behind the dark-robed knight, and soon forgot the time.
Fu Shen glanced at the clock and sent a message in the chat group.
【Fu Shen】: Are you ready?
【Liang Chen】: Yes.
【Pi Xiu】: Don’t worry, Shen Ge, I’ll definitely not disappoint you!
【Li Fengyu】: Awoo! Awoo! Awoo! I can’t wait for it to be twelve o’clock!
【Fu Shen】: Thanks.
Tang Zhou finished clearing a wave of monsters excitedly and saw the dark-robed knight talking to him.
【FS】: I’ll take you somewhere.
【Sweet Congee】: Okay.
The knight summoned a divine steed, took the healer’s hand, leaped onto the horse’s back, tightly embraced the healer, and drove the steed galloping.
【FS】: You don’t ask where we’re going?
【Sweet Congee】: I’ll go wherever you take me.
Fu Shen’s lips curled up slightly. So sweet.
The steed galloped all the way to a secluded valley, where the ground was covered in star grass. From a distance, it looked like the Milky Way was reflected in the valley, with stars as far as the eye could see.
The game’s graphics were exquisite, and the little healer, who was standing in the midst of it, felt that it was breathtakingly beautiful.
【FS】: It’s almost midnight.
【Sweet Congee】: Hmm.
【FS】: Look up.
Tang Zhou changed the little healer’s perspective.
As soon as it struck midnight, a huge firework suddenly exploded on the computer screen. Before he could react, the entire valley burst into a dazzling fireworks feast in unison.
In the midst of this unparalleled grandeur, the dark-robed knight embraced the little healer.
【FS】: Baby, happy birthday.
Tang Zhou sat in the chair in a daze until the door was knocked on.
He turned around.
Fu Shen was holding a brown cat doll, smiling gently. “I found a companion for Xiao Bai.”
Tang Zhou stared at him without saying a word.
Fu Shen took a few steps forward, glanced at the fireworks still blowing up merrily on the screen, and said, “The city banned the fireworks, so I can only play the game in— “Fireworks re banned in the city, so we can only enjoy them in the game…”
His lips were blocked by something that felt soft and cool, yet ignited a fiery passion in the heart.
Fu Shen hugged him back tightly, taking control of the situation.
My heart o(╥w╥)o
