Chapter 61
What was Xu Cheng Snapdragon thinking when he agreed to the divorce?
Is it because he heard the news that she aborted the child and then became furious and impulsive?
Or is it because it is not the third time she proposed, his pride does not allow him to retain her?
Divorced for more than five years, Situ Xu Xu from time to time will consider this question. But just as she could not have proposed remarriage first, she could not have asked him directly for an answer.
But such a dream of eight years wake up in the morning, after a night’s sleep, stood in the kitchen door after the scent, looking at her back to the man bare strong upper body, stood in the golden sunrise frying fragrant eggs, she suddenly wanted to ask him: when I doubt your love, when I thought I no longer love you, your mood is how it is? Is it because of love and hate, it is better to say goodbye, never see you again, or as always, persistent love me?
Last night’s foot scratches were handled well by him, bandaged and stepped in the soft slippers walking has not hurt, she gently walked over and hugged him from behind.
She gently walked over to him and hugged him from behind. Her cheek was pressed against the strong muscles of his back, which made her feel at ease.
Xu Cheng Snapdragon released a hand to protect her arm from splashing her with hot oil while frying an egg.
“Is Yun Qi awake yet?” He asked.
Situ Xu Xu lazily replied, “Not yet, he slept so late last night.”
“Go tell him to get up and eat breakfast before letting him sleep.”
“Not going~”
Her long-lost playful lovey-dovey tone, so that Xu Chengchu was simply flattered, turned off the fire and turned around to hug her, lowered his head and kissed her earnestly, his dark eyes brightly asked, “In a while, I’ll fix the window, and then in the afternoon we’ll go to do the formalities, right? Just in time to eat outside in the evening, Yunqi wants to eat pizza, I know a store that does good pizza!”
Situ Xu hung her eyes, her fingers poking and playing on his firm pecs.
Seo Seung Snap waited apprehensively for her to answer.
In fact, all morning thinking about this, the heart has been beating the drum – to Situ Xu Xu he dare not say that he understands, but her mind of the unpredictable he was taught enough, and she last night simply did not positively promise to remarry.
Waiting for a while she did not say anything, he was anxious, grabbed her still blindly painting hand, frowned and asked: “Go not ah in the end?”
“Go where ah?” She asked as if she knew nothing.
In another year, she played dumb like this Xu Cheng Snapdragon would have jumped up, but right now he patiently said, “Go to do the formalities, remarriage formalities! Last night is not a good deal? Don’t make trouble anymore, live well can’t, I have come back, will not leave you and son again!”
“How come I don’t remember what we agreed on.” Situ Xu Xu’s expression was lazy, “I only remember you saying that Yunqi is older and we are no longer young.” The first time he married there were no flowers and diamond rings and kneeling, and she was even the one who opened her mouth first. Now that he’s marrying her for the second time, could the reason be that Yunqi is older and they’re no longer young?
Xu Cheng Snap’s temper was tempered by her to restrain a lot, but the emotional quotient has progressed to a difficult step, only to feel that the dead girl is again pretentious, last night he was so low, she still flipped out.
So the two people again on the bar.
At the evening meal Yun Qi looked at this and that, silent, ate a few mouthfuls of pizza, opened his mouth and asked, “You two, quarrel again?”
Situ Xu Xu was stunned, “No ah! What do you mean ‘again’?”
All along she was worried about whether her divorce would bring her son’s childhood shadow, and in these years Xu Cheng Snap was able to repeatedly go to the house and commit adultery …… with her apologies to her son also had a part to do with it.
Xu Cheng Snapdragon this kind of no sense of propriety people always will be the baby son as a compound sharp weapon, caught the opportunity to immediately do not let go: “Yunqi, mom and dad did not quarrel, just for the remarriage of the matter of some controversy. What do you think?” He looked at his son expectantly.
Yunqi had pizza in his mouth and said vaguely, “It’s okay with me, you guys feel free.”
Master Snap, who was full of anticipation, lowered his head like he was hit by frost and silently forked the pizza to eat.
Situ Xu Xu tenderly wiped the cheese around her son’s mouth, “Is it good?”
Yun Qi nodded and said, “Yummy – Mom, I suggest you agree to remarry! As the saying goes: go with the flow, or be late!”
Xu Chengchu became furious at this mess of idioms and asked his son, “You’re in contact with Uncle Qingcheng again aren’t you!” Meng Qingcheng went to the United States has been and Shen Qifeng, Zhou Su couple hang out, the Chinese text already stuttering Shen Qifeng teach more and more chaotic outrageous, Yunqi as soon as he heard Shen Qifeng that borderline idioms flying around on the joy, every time and those three video chat can be more than an hour, and then several days after that will be obsessed with mimicking the Shen Qifeng that the gods come to idioms quoted.
Situ Yunqi shrugged his shoulders like Meng Qingcheng’s prodigal look, “Uncle Qingcheng bought me a set of hardcover out-of-print Encyclopedia of World Knowledge – Dad, why in the world are you treating Uncle Qingcheng so badly? Aren’t you two childhood friends?”
Xu Chengchu stroked his son’s head, glanced at Situ Xu Xu Xu who was buried in studying the texture of the pizza, and said, “Because he and I ‘share the same interests’, we ‘don’t share the same fate’.”
He was conspiratorial, if he had a point to make, Situ Yunqi, although precocious but young after all, was unable to understand the deeper meaning: “Like-minded? Then shouldn’t you be confidants?”
Xu Cheng Snapdragon looked at Situ and sneered. Situ was still a little weak, but she is not a soft persimmon, which can be pinched by some people so pinch to pinch happy, raised his head, she also touched his son’s head, corrected, “Yunqi, ‘childhood sweethearts’ is not used in this way, boys and girls grow up together can only use ‘childhood sweethearts’ to describe them, Uncle Qingcheng and dad can be described as ‘hairy children’, like Aunt Jingyu and dad, only then can you use ‘childhood sweethearts’. ”
How gently she smiled, raising her eyebrows to look at someone who had already buried his head, and gently asked her son, “Understand?”
Situ Yunqi didn’t realize that his parents had used a few idioms to make a sword fight between them, he carefully digested the idiom of “childhood sweethearts” and said happily, “I understand! Dad–” he happily patted Xu Chengchu’s hand, “you gave me a set of Tang and Song poems, I read one line that goes like this: ‘Lang rides a bamboo horse, and he goes around the bed to make plums.’ ”
Xu Cheng Snapdragon has already repented of almost burying his face in the pizza, but also by the son to make up such a hard shot, but can not refute his son, so he can only awkwardly cough, vague “hmm” a.
In fact, Master Snapdragon’s heart was in tears, slapping himself: I told you to use idioms with a cheap mouth! I told you to be cheap and buy Tang poems!
After the family finished eating pizza, the sky was already dark, the typhoon had not completely passed, and it was raining quite heavily.
Xu Cheng Snap drove the car steadily, the two of them, mother and son, talking softly in the backseat, and every now and then the two of them laughed together. He occasionally glanced at them from the rearview mirror, although the storm was raging outside, his heart felt quiet and satisfied.
Road conditions are bad, he drove slowly, back to the small apartment Yunqi has fallen asleep, Xu Chengchu parked the car down to the back to hold him. Yunqi was moved to wake up, slightly opened his eyes to see his father, immediately closed his eyes at ease, his little head also rubbed against his father’s shoulder, and chose a comfortable position to continue to sleep.
Xu Cheng Snapdragon holding his son walked in front, Situ Xu Xu followed them, almost to the elevator when she stepped up two steps to press the button. Such an ordinary action Xu Cheng Snapdragon but extraordinarily nestled, into the elevator with one hand carrying his son with one hand holding her, a family of three complete warmth, so that he suddenly light feeling infinitely satisfied.
At night, of course, he could not take the initiative to go, besides Situ Xu Xu did not open his mouth to drive him! Xu Cheng Snapdragon gave his son a bath, coaxed him to sleep, he gently came out, the daytime window repaired and checked again, and then all parts of the house to check again.
In his heart, he was actually afraid that Situ would open her mouth to kick him out, doing these things made him feel as if he was still useful to this family, even if a repairman could replace himself, he also hoped that she would see some of his value and not kick him out.
Poor master primrose, dilly-dallying, finally dilly-dallying to eleven o’clock or so, so late she should not drive him away again, he fire bath, back to the room bed.
Room bed, Situ Xu Xu lying on her back side, seems to have fallen asleep. He gently on the bed, lying quietly for a while, boldly reached out and put his hand on her body, judging from her breathing she did not fall asleep, but surprisingly did not fall away from his hand, Xu Chengchu was overjoyed, and hastened to carry her over.
She smells so good! Xu Cheng Snapdragon buried his face in her hair and inhaled deeply, confused, this dark night aroma, confused makes him can not help but put aside the daytime sober when the constraints of timidity, biting her ear mute asked her: “Why do not you want to remarry? Really do not want to marry me again?”
She really didn’t sleep, and her voice was quiet as she asked back, “Why do you want to remarry? Because Yunqi is older and takes care of his feelings? Or because we’re both no longer young and too lazy to find someone else to marry?”
“What kind of words are these! Who do you want to find to get married?”
Talking to him could never continue according to her way of thinking, Situ Xu Xu had gotten used to it and would no longer get angry with him when she could not get an answer like before, after a moment of silence, she changed her method of questioning, “Xu Chengchu, I asked you why you married me and what you liked about me. At that time, you said that you casually caught one to marry, is it true?”
Xu Chengchu froze, couldn’t recall that he had ever said such asshole words, but this Careful Eyes was the most calculating, she must have remembered these words word for word, it must have been him who had said it right.
“Of course it’s a lie! Otherwise why did I catch a temper so bad, make now running four people, sleep a wife still fear …… you don’t ask it, I can’t answer well, in a moment you are angry with me again!”
His attitude of aggrieved begging for forgiveness made Situ Xu Xu couldn’t help but laugh, rolled over in his arms, facing him, and asked softly, “Then why did you agree to divorce in the first place?”
“You lied to me that you took the child ……,” Xu Chengchu could not continue, that past is too tragic, now think about it still feel palpitating. He did not want to answer, so he asked her in return, “Then you like me what?some one like you?”
Pfft …… Situ Xu Xu laughed lightly.
Xu Chengchu also felt funny.
These years, both sides of each other to the deepest things, after so long, said out actually can be quoted as a joke, like memories of elementary school to steal the same table eraser, at that time thought it was a big thing, now think about it, but so.
In addition to the cloud up, time has also given such an important thing, when it is really generous to them.
Situ Xu Xu smiled and bit him on the chin, softly asked: ”Cheng Snap, what did you think when you agreed to divorce? Tell me about it, okay? You tell me yours, and I’ll tell you mine.”
Xu Cheng Snap’s face darkened at the thought of that time, but her quid pro quo was so tantalizing that he couldn’t help but strangle the soft body in his arms tightly and grunted, “You’re so cruel!”
This was the only thought Xu Chengchu had from the time of the divorce until he realized that she was pregnant with Yun Qi – Situ Xu Xu, you’re so cruel!
On the airplane to the United States everyone was sleeping, he asked the stewardess for an eye mask, the beautiful and considerate stewardess brought the handsome young lieutenant colonel a blanket and a cup of lukewarm water, Xu Chengchu shook off that blanket, put on the eye mask and put the blanket over his head again, with blackness in front of his eyes, forcing himself to be motionless, but he still couldn’t fall asleep, there was still only this one thought in his head, disturbing him so much that he couldn’t develop sleepiness.
How could she be so cruel?
