Ch111.2 - Future (2/2)

Yu Hao said, “I think the key lies in Gege ba, he urgently needs to resolve the issues with his future. As long as he has a firm belief in the path that lies ahead……”

The sound of a key opening the door could be heard, so the two of them stopped talking. Fu Liqun came back and cast them a glance.

Zhou Sheng, “Sent her off?”

Fu Liqun said, “Her father came to get her in person.”

That one sentence contained a great deal of information. Yu Hao couldn’t deduce how Fu Liqun must be feeling right now. Zhou Sheng got up to get two cans of ice-cold beer. He handed one to Fu Liqun, Fu Liqun laid down on the sofa with one foot against Yu Hao’s waist and pushed him to the other end of the sofa while keeping him parallel to it.

Yu Hao, “……:

Zhou Sheng didn’t say anything and just laid lazily on the single-person sofa. He was like a hound that was on the verge of sleeping but still stood on guard at all times. This silence was maintained in the living room. Outside the air-conditioned room, cicadas in the trees were crying constantly, but they quieted down all of a sudden before ringing out again like the fall and rise of a tide.

Fu Liqun, “Say, aren’t those cicadas tired from crying like that everyday?”

Yu Hao, “In nature, courtship is a very difficult thing. Empathise with other populations ba.”

Fu Liqun and Zhou Sheng laughed aloud. Yu Hao chose to take Liang Jinmin’s course, and knew that as animals, the two most important things in life were eating and courtship. Sometimes, eating wouldn’t even be as important as courtship. Cicadas did their utmost in crying out, birds worked very hard to build beautiful nests, and penguins went around everywhere searching for beautiful stones, all for the sake of wooing females and obtaining the affirmation of their sweethearts.

“What’s the date today?” Fu Liqun suddenly asked.

Zhou Sheng casually said, “Schools starts in a week, need to go back to the college tomorrow to get an internship form.”

Fu Liqun fell silent for a moment. Yu Hao came out after taking a bath. His hair was still wet as he looked down at his phone and texted.

“Young Madam is a real beauty.” Fu Liqun scrutinised Yu Hao.

Yu Hao said, “Sis-in-law is the real beauty.”

Fu Liqun teases Yu Hao like how Zhou Sheng teases Cen Shan; they always liked to embarrass their boyfriends. Yu Hao glanced at Zhou Sheng to see how he intended to retaliate against Fu Liqun, then Zhou Sheng sincerely said, “Gege’s too flattering, how could Yu Hao be considered a beauty? He and sis-in-law added together wouldn’t even match up to one finger on our Yangming bro. Yangming Gege’s the real beauty!”

Yu Hao suddenly burst out laughing uncontrollably. Fu Liqun turned angry from embarrassment, “Ai!”

Yu Hao and Zhou Sheng high-fived, and they laughed so hard that they were barely able to keep themselves together. Fu Liqun was indeed very close to Li Yangming, and Li Yangming was very obedient towards Fu Liqun– he was practically relying on him wholeheartedly. But Fu Liqun obviously wasn’t interested in him that way, and he just felt like he was taking care of his roommate.

Yu Hao and Li Yangming had discussed it in private before. The key wasn’t whether Fu Liqun was straight or not, but the fact that he had a girlfriend. You can do whatever you want without a girlfriend. Li Yangming promised Yu Hao that he definitely had no other intentions, so Yu Hao didn’t mind it anymore.

Fu Liqun drank his beer and said, “Young Master, do you still remember your birthday from two years ago?”

Zhou Sheng said, “Yeah, the two of us weren’t together yet at that time. Thank you, Gege.”

Fu Liqun said, “You’re welcome. At that time I thought about what we would be like in two to three years, and unexpectedly, time passed in the blink of an eye. Brothers……” As he spoke, Fu Liqun sat up straight. After thinking about it for a bit, he said, “I think we should talk.”

Yu Hao wasn’t surprised. Zhou Sheng seemed to have anticipated it too and said, “What is it? Gege, you’re our best friend, just say what’s on your mind.”

Fu Liqun held an empty beer can in his hands and remained silent for a long time, then suddenly asked Zhou Sheng, “Where do you want to do your internship this year? Are you going to go along with Xue Long’s arrangements?”

Zhou Sheng said without even thinking about it, “No way. He won’t arrange a normal internship for us, we’ve already offended him in all aspects.”

Yu Hao, “Aside from getting us to move bricks, what else would Xue Long ask us to do?”

Fu Liqun uttered an “un” and asked again, “Ask Kaikai?”

Zhou Sheng refused again, “Don’t want to owe him a favour. His internship positions are all related to academia; it won’t be suitable for us either.”

Yu Hao had thought of looking to Chen Yekai or Liang Jinmin to introduce them to an internship. However, the internship found would be suitable for him, but not for the active Zhou Sheng and Fu Liqun. If their internships weren’t related to the field they would be working in after graduation, then it wouldn’t be that meaningful.

“What about you?” Fu Liqun said to Yu Hao, “Young Madam, now I’m beginning to feel more and more that you’re a really strong guy.”

Yu Hao said, “I’ll listen to both of your plans first.”

It was most appropriate to consult parents regarding such an issue. But Yu Hao was alone, and Zhou Sheng couldn’t discuss it his family either. Mama Zhou had mentioned it duringthe last time she had called Yu Hao, to get Zhou Sheng to enroll in a class to learn clothing design —— ever since she knew of Zhou Sheng’s sexual orientation, she started imagining him as a fashionable gay with an orchid finger, and he didn’t know where such an impression came from in the first place. Although Zhou Sheng’s sense of aesthetics wasn’t bad, he didn’t want to have anything to do with fashion.

Fu Liqun said, “I’ve asked my Dad, and he said that he would introduce me to a friend’s company in the logistics department, to do administrative work.”

Yu Hao knew that Fu Liqun definitely wouldn’t go.

“My mum told her son-in-law,” Zhou Sheng said, “To ask me to register for a sewing class to learn how to do embroidery work.”

Fu Liqun immediately burst into laughter. Zhou Sheng looked helpless as he shrugged.

“It’s not bad to go into design.” Yu Hao said, “It’s just ‘cause you don’t like it. Your mother’s doing well with her shop and even started an online shop recently.”

Zhou Sheng said, “Oh, so my stepfather will go to Shenzhen to procure some goods, then I can help her pack 99-yuan packages at home, shipping included? You can be in charge of customer service and quarrel with the customers, it’s pretty good for the family to open a small workshop.”

Yu Hao thought that really was pretty good……having experienced not knowing when he would be able to get his next meal after his high school graduation, he understood one truth: how could every person in this world live a resplendent, successful lifestyle like an OP CEO? Earning enough to support oneself isn’t an easy thing to do in the first place.
