Chapter 43

He Mei didn’t respond to her immediately, she was obviously angry for a long time, but her cold treatment towards Wen Ning didn’t last for half a minute.

[Okay, the time and place will be at my disposal then.]

Don’t bring a man when we meet as sisters.

If she hadn’t realized that Zhou Yinchu might be at her sister’s side, He Mei would never have left any room for error, and would have added the word “dog” between the men.

Thinking about Wen Ning’s situation, she was willing to refrain from expressing her hostility towards Zhou Yinchu to the fullest extent.

Wen Ning smiles heartily, finally willing to leave her cell phone behind, crossing over to the man’s side, turning a blind eye to the other man who only just shared her voice, “I’m going to help in the kitchen.”

Xiao Yang is not willing to face Zhou Yinchu at the other table, she can’t swallow the food in front of that excessively cold face, and gets up anxiously, “I’ll go too.”

Zhou Yinchu was the only one left at the table.

Even though he’d let anything slip today, the transformation that had happened to Wen Ning, even if it was because she’d stood up for He Mei, the fact that she’d opened up about their relationship – it seemed a little smarter than before.

Seems a little smarter than before.

Perhaps he didn’t actually resent her use that much.

Shaking the andrographis in his wine glass, pressing off the light from his cell phone screen, and blocking out Xue Zhengyao’s bored follow-up message, his eyes fell on the busy figure in the kitchen.

Obviously the small kitchen is very crowded, swarming with several people, but his eyes are only her.

A holy light, unseen in Western culture, was now dusk, shining impartially on her shoulders.

An ordinary bowl of spring noodles stood still under his eyes.

A few green leaves floated on the surface of the soup, and the golden eggs were burnt if they were overcooked, undercooked if they were undercooked.

“Is that enough?”

The woman placed her chopsticks on the noodle bowl, “If it’s not enough, I’ll ask my mom to cook another chopstick.”

People would be fed up with each other’s figurative contributions, but only Zhou Yinchu knew in his own heart that his inner scarcity never seemed to be enough from the moment he met her.

Going forward, the more he couldn’t bear to live without her.

“Don’t bother.”

Wen Ning: “Just make it easy on yourself.”

She still stubbornly thought of Zhou Yinchu as a man dissatisfied with home-cooked stir-fries, but she also had to take care of the feelings of the others present, and she figured that they were already uncomfortable.

Of course, it was too late to think about what would happen later, and she didn’t look that far ahead. If she had known that this large family’s ability to eat and drink indiscriminately was no less than normal, then Wenning would have hated to be reminded of it day and night from this moment on.

At the moment, as a mother, can make Wen Ning most confused, uneasy, all day haunting things naturally related to her children.

With the changes in her family happening one after another, she had to think deeply –

Whether or not her marrying another person would have a negative impact on Chuchu’s psyche.

Seeing Zhou Yinchu more and more at home in this family like his own, she hated his hasty decisions even more.

He didn’t even need to hear the polite “treat this place like your own home”.

He was so uninhibited.

At that moment, Chul-chul took out another application problem, and Zhou Yinchu almost immediately did some mental math and came up with the answer, and in the child’s ignorant admiration, he then wrote down two formulas.

The pencil made a familiar rustling sound on the draft paper.

Wenning, however, was never able to quiet her mind, and what made her even more anxious was yet to come, in case the man wanted to take her away just this night, what excuse would she use to leave this little home.

Could it be that she would leave her mother and Chuchu behind in the future, abandoning them for the sake of a high class life for herself?

According to Wen Ning’s personality, she would never be able to make such a selfish choice.

But it is hard not to let him stay, as Zhou Yinchu said, but this home is only this size, once there is a commotion, it will be known to the whole family, upstairs and downstairs may not be completely unheard of.

The one meter five bed simply can not withstand his tossing and turning, if then even with the custom-made boards broken, she simply can not hold up her head as a person.

Wenning can’t wait to talk about the evening arrangements, but the man intentionally delayed, pulling to practice Wenning remembered the university only taught Lobeda’s law.

A few numerical formulas, noun explanations, in accordance with the usual, Wen Ning is estimated to want to praise Zhou Yinchu showed unusual patience.

But Zhou Yinchu was doing it on purpose, he deliberately ignored his own anxiety, but explained the esoteric calculus with her child.

In the past, this kind of person was not related to “teaching people tirelessly” at all.

When I was a student, I always came up with my own solutions to questions asked by people who were not related to him, and the only “good teacher” targeting people was not others, but myself, teaching …… the content of the teachings and the books taught the opposite.

The time always passes, the first light, darkness falls.

Che Che finished solving the difficult math problems in this book of exercises, open-minded, no longer like a nerd continue to gnaw on his books, and do not continue to ask for advice from the man vainly, but to ask some Zhou Yinchu some and exercises do not match.

Wen Ning then dismissed him, shouting at him to go back to his room to bring his pajamas and towel, to go to the bathroom to take a bath.

Xiao Yang saw the situation, reluctantly picked up her canvas bag; and Wen mother, early cleaned up the dishes, said the community mahjong hall “three short of one”, also did not disturb their intention, in fact, she originally intended to take Che Che together, if not Che Che today sweat, anxious to take a bath, I guess it will not be left in this house.

“Just so impatient to find me?”

Li Che went into the bathroom, Xiao Yang and Mother Wen left one after the other, leaving only them in the living room, as well as the faint fragrance of sesame oil that permeated the air.

“Not complimenting me?” Zhou Yinchu looked at this stance clearly inviting credit, “Tutoring your kids’ homework ……”

He stepped away from his long legs and pushed the wooden chairs in the living room under the dining table, intentionally making more space for them.

Wen Ning obviously felt the subtle change in the atmosphere between them, since the marriage registration, they have not had the time to spend time alone, things should not be delayed, she had to discuss with him, “Zhou Yinchu, I’ll discuss with you again about where you’re going tonight.”

The woman with the small face of no interest, but the more fascinating in the unknown other side, those in the center of the hotel bed to hear the soft gasp is more fascinating.

Zhou Yinchu quickly heard Wen Ning’s implication, “Are you trying to drive me away?”

“To be kicked out by one’s own wife on the first night of their wedding,” Zhou Yinchu’s eyes darkened in a way that was visible to the naked eye, “Do you think I’ll be in a good mood?”

“I don t mean this, our family is too small, it is indeed inappropriate ……”

Wen Ning couldn’t argue with a hundred words.

“Then it’s perfectly fine for you to come with me as well,” he was practically storing up to tease her, “You should have been out of the house the nights you were with me before.”

“Zhou Yinchu!” How can someone like him have the nerve to bring up the past?

Was all the reunion between them a great love that could be celebrated?

Would a normal person skip the juvenile parts, remove the dregs, take the essence, and only describe the relatively positive ones?

“It’s still not you who caused me?”

“Wenning, there are actually times when you can’t blame me alone,” he said this in what was undoubtedly a sexy, low voice, grilling her for an equal amount of culpability, “People’s self-control is always limited.”

He blamed her beauty.

But she was really introspecting, even on the matter of going for marriage, she was not a manipulated puppet, he was giving two equally daunting options.

But she herself was making the decision between the two.

Wenning’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, “Perhaps, I am just like you ……”

The woman who admits guilt seems to be truly atoning for her sins.

Zhou Yinchu: “Or blame me.”

“It doesn’t matter, but it’s just adding some new guilt for the wicked,” he couldn’t help but look straight at her hard feelings, “Wen Ning, push the problem onto me, don’t have any unnecessary guilt.”

“Go away.”

Her internalized, tangled appearance made him eat his words, Zhou Yinchu would rather act as the bad guy of ten evils himself, but he never inflicted her with worldly assertions.

“This key leads to a villa in the Economic Development Zone, it’s very secluded and elegant, it should be a place you’ll like,” Zhou Yinchu pulled out a long-prepared key. “The inside hasn’t had time to be decorated yet, so you can decorate it exactly to your liking.”

With that, a black bank card was handed out, “This is the money for the decoration, I don’t know if it’s enough according to your budget, if it’s not enough, just let me know.”

“After you’ve finished the renovation and let it dry for about half a year, you and Chul will move in again.”

The benevolent man had left the rest of half a year of available time for acclimatization, but the woman’s attention fell all on this black card.

Wenning didn’t make any more pretense about whether or not to accept the savings card, but instead grilled about the exact amount:

“How much money is in there?”

“Thought that our Ning Ning would never ask about things related to money in her life.” His words were clearly sarcastic.

She furrowed her brows, thinking that women without much insight always had some notion of the cost of renovation, “But I’ve heard that villa renovations are particularly expensive, so I’m not going to stick my own money into renovating it for you.”

Still the “calculating” woman.

“Four hundred.”

Wen Ning calmly received the card, “That’s fine, I’ll wait for two days to go and look at the specific house type first.”

Since she has accepted this marriage, she can’t really live in the future, or directly let Zhou Yinchu come to her, what’s the difference between that and inviting the wolf into the house?

“I’ll have the driver come and pick you up.”

“Good.”

She asked knowingly, “Then in this half a year or so ……”

“Wen Ning, I can afford to wait.”

Zhou Yinchu didn’t see much depth of feeling when he said this.

After all, he has been waiting for fifteen years, waiting has become a habit of his bones, it is not bad for a moment, but this just finished, Zhou Yinchu subconsciously felt regret.

“However, you can also come to me during this renovation period.”

The uneasy, revealing smile was always wordy.

Wen Ning duly breathed a sigh of relief, as if Zhou Yinchu did not say so, did not directly and violently attack and encroach, she in turn was not so accustomed to it.

“Then you go back.”

She is hard when she drives him away, afraid that it will accidentally turn into a “refusal”, Che Che is in the bath, and will soon be out of the bath.

Wouldn’t want Chul to visualize what was happening between them.

“Let’s go.” There was no time to lose.

Even to appease the man, she came up for another kiss, and thus with the experience of the last one, this time she wouldn’t touch the cold, hard brow bone directly yet, but precisely to his lips, and once she did, she knew she couldn’t possess the dominance.

It was a charming, steamy kiss.

They probably wouldn’t have known how to be tentative at all, either, if Cherry hadn’t ended up pushing the sliding door open.

“Go away.”

The man said.

For once, there really seemed to be an effort to save her face as a mother, without the extra act of drawing misunderstanding and reverie.

“Chulch.”

“Mom.”

“How was the garden party today?” Wen Ning sat at the child’s bedside, the small lamp of cartoon characters in the house emitting a warm yellow light above her head, “I’m sorry, mommy didn’t have time to attend the whole thing, and didn’t have time to show off Chuchu’s mommy’s cooking skills.”

“Mom, there’s nothing to be sorry about.”

Li Che truly looked into her eyes, “You are a mom, but you are first and foremost yourself.”

Perhaps, it was really the water vapor coming out of the bathroom that had densified Wenning’s eyes, and only then did she shed tears so indisputably in front of her child.

“Mom, I don’t need to explain, I’m a big kid, I can take care of myself in any situation where you’re not there,” he honestly sat in the center of that children’s bed, his back straight, and said with infinite longing for the future, “In the future, I also hope that I’ll have the ability to take care of you, take care of grandma and accompany little sister Yang.”

Wen Ning instantly didn’t know what to say.

There was always a maturity in Che Che that surpassed that of his peers, he was good at empathizing, always putting himself in other people’s shoes and understanding their difficulties.

“Where did you learn all this?”

“That’s certainly from my mom’s words!” Li Che raised a smile, his gaze clear and bright, no old haze in sight.

“Che Che.” Wen Ning was always hesitant to tell the whole story of what happened between adults, but even if she didn’t say anything, as perceptive as Che Che, he had long since seen the difference between her and Zhou Yinchu, right?

He familiarly covers himself with the air-conditioned quilt, and sees this hint of hesitation in the bottom of her eyes, “Mom, if you want to talk to me about anything, you can tell me anytime.”

“If it’s not convenient right now, that’s fine.”

“I’m always willing to listen mom.”
