Chapter 1183 The Pirate Ship

Rebirth of a Perfect Future · 第1183章 海盗船

Sometimes Zhao Fusheng felt that he and everyone else were not from the same world, and he didn't understand what they were making a fuss about.

He remembered taking a psychology class where the old professor asked, "Which student can explain what conscience is?"

One student said, "Conscience is like a triangular thing inside my heart. When I haven't done anything bad, it sits quietly. But if I do something bad, it starts to turn. Each corner pricks me. But if I keep doing bad things, each corner gets worn down, and I no longer feel the pain."

In Zhao Fusheng's view, that was probably the mindset of some people. Perhaps in their eyes, doing business should be like that—achieving the goal by any means necessary, as long as money could be made, nothing else mattered.

But unfortunately, that was not Zhao Fusheng's principle.

Although he wanted to abandon his conscience and become a thorough villain, unfortunately, Zhao Fusheng found that he was still a soft-hearted person at heart.

After discussing with Zheng Yao how to proceed, Zhao Fusheng hung up the phone.

Meanwhile, Fan Baobao had accomplished the great feat of "educating the disobedient younger sister." The two sisters were sitting on the sofa, ignoring each other.

"So, is it over?" Zhao Fusheng smiled, looking at the sisters.

"Hmph!"

"Hmph!"

The two, one big and one small, made sounds at the same time, then glanced at each other and turned their heads away decisively.

Clearly, they intended to keep ignoring each other.

Zhao Fusheng smiled and didn't try to mediate. Instead, he bent down and picked up Fan Beibei: "Beibei, be good. Big brother will take you to bed, okay?"

"Okay." Fan Beibei shot a triumphant look at her sister, reached out and wrapped her arms around Zhao Fusheng's neck: "Big brother, will you sleep with me tonight?"

Obviously, the little girl was getting back at her older sister.

The corner of Zhao Fusheng's mouth twitched. He nodded helplessly: "Alright, alright. You little rascal."

Watching their backs, Fan Baobao looked helpless. But the next moment, she saw her sister make a face at her.

With a "pfft," her previously stern face could no longer hold. Fan Baobao burst out laughing, glared at Fan Beibei, and made a fist gesture at the little girl.

"You little brat!"

Fan Baobao muttered, but inside she was delighted.

To be honest, if it weren't for Zhao Fusheng's change, she and her sister might be living a completely different life now.

She was truly happy that the family could have this kind of life now.

……

……

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Zhao Fusheng was woken up by the little girl. She had woken up early and, bored, had come to tickle him.

"Big brother, big brother, get up. I'm hungry." Fan Beibei whispered in Zhao Fusheng's ear.

Zhao Fusheng opened his eyes and looked helplessly at the little person in front of him: "Go find your sister. Let her make you breakfast."

"I don't dare. I'm afraid she'll beat me!"

Fan Beibei said pitifully: "Earlier I called her an old woman..."

Pfft!

Zhao Fusheng was completely dumbfounded. He stared at the little girl, speechless. He thought to himself, this girl is a real piece of work when it comes to asking for trouble.

Women are undoubtedly very sensitive about their age. She actually dared to call Fan Baobao an old woman. No wonder the older sister ignored sisterly affection and had to teach her a lesson.

"Beibei, although your sister is indeed not young anymore, you shouldn't speak the truth carelessly." Zhao Fusheng caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, blinked, and said with righteous indignation.

"Huh?" Fan Beibei looked confused, not understanding what her brother was saying.

Meanwhile, Fan Baobao, standing at the door, was so angry she nearly twisted her mouth.

"Zhao Fusheng! Fan Beibei!" Miss Fan glared fiercely at the two: "No breakfast for either of you this morning! Go hungry!"

She had been kind enough to make breakfast for them, and these two were actually discussing whether she was an old woman. How infuriating!

With that thought, Fan Baobao shot a glare at Zhao Fusheng and decided in her heart that she wouldn't let that bastard into bed for at least a week.

If Zhao Fusheng had known that his loose tongue would cause such trouble, he would have regretted it deeply. But unfortunately, he didn't know now.

So he continued happily exchanging gossip about Fan Baobao with Fan Beibei, pretending not to see Fan Baobao at the door.

Fan Baobao shook her head helplessly. She couldn't be bothered to criticize these two childish people. She stomped her foot, turned around, and went back to wash up.

Today, she was still going to take the little girl out to play.

"Be good, get up. Big brother and sister will take you out to play today." Zhao Fusheng smiled and patted Fan Beibei's head.

At the mention of playing, Fan Beibei was naturally overjoyed. She happily ran off to wash her face and brush her teeth.

As for breakfast—uh, what was that?

Children are like that. If you satisfy them with things they're interested in, they quickly forget everything else.

By noon, the sisters Fan Baobao and Fan Beibei had joined forces.

"I don't care! I want to ride the pirate ship!" Fan Beibei said to Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng blinked: "Riding is fine, but can't your sister go with you?"

"I'm a bit tired. You go with Beibei." Fan Baobao blinked, looking innocent.

The corner of Zhao Fusheng's mouth twitched. Watching his girlfriend's poor acting, he felt really helpless.

"I'm tired too." Zhao Fusheng said with a wry smile.

Actually, he wasn't that tired. It was mainly that he found it hard to get excited about children's amusement parks. After all, his mental age was too old; it was difficult for him to be interested in such things.

And, ahem, Zhao Fusheng was actually a bit intimidated by the pirate ship.

Fan Baobao knew this, which was why she deliberately made him accompany Fan Beibei.

"Big brother..."

The little girl looked at Zhao Fusheng pitifully, tugging at his sleeve.

"Alright, alright. Let's go."

Defeated by the little girl's gaze, Zhao Fusheng sighed, shot a glare at Fan Baobao, and gritted his teeth as he led Fan Beibei onto the pirate ship.

Fan Baobao laughed heartily behind them. Actually, she knew that Zhao Fusheng wasn't afraid of the thing; he just found it boring.

But the problem was, he was busy with company matters all day, sometimes staying up until late at night. Fan Baobao genuinely hoped Zhao Fusheng could relax properly and not push himself too hard.

Perhaps to others, Zhao Fusheng was a successful businessman, but to Fan Baobao, he was her man, her lifelong support.

Sometimes Fan Baobao even thought she would rather Zhao Fusheng not be so successful than see him work so hard.

This might sound a bit pretentious, but that's truly how she felt.

You see, although Zhao Fusheng seemed to have no major issues on the surface, Fan Baobao knew very well that he lived more tiredly than anyone else. He was thinking about the company's development almost every moment.

Under such circumstances, Zhao Fusheng's nerves were constantly on edge.

Fan Baobao didn't like Zhao Fusheng living like this. She hoped he could take it easy.

Zhao Fusheng actually understood her intentions, which was why he agreed to come to the amusement park with the sisters.

Relationships are like that. Mutual tolerance and understanding are true love. One-sided sacrifice is a burden for both parties.

Love is the romance of two strong individuals, not the melancholy of two weak ones.

After a long time, when Zhao Fusheng and Fan Beibei came down from the pirate ship, his face was pale, and he looked unsteady.

"Are you satisfied now?" Zhao Fusheng looked at Fan Baobao helplessly and smiled wryly.

Fan Baobao chuckled and reached out to support him: "I just wanted you to relax a bit."

Zhao Fusheng glared at her, snorted in annoyance, but said nothing.

Of course he understood Fan Baobao's thoughts, but in his opinion, this wasn't a good way to relax. Ahem, there were many ways to help a man relax.

"Pervert!"

At that moment, Fan Baobao suddenly spoke, glaring at Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng was startled and looked at Fan Baobao in surprise: "Uh, did I say that out loud?"

Fan Baobao snorted, her eyes full of contempt as she looked at Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng laughed sheepishly, suddenly feeling very awkward.
