“Just got back a while ago.” Lan Yu Feng looked down at the name flashing on his cell phone screen, his complexion slightly stuttering. Not answering it immediately, he just spoke to Zige, “Giving you time to freshen up, but you bring it to sleep, it looks like you’re freshening up.”
Zige sat up from the child’s bed and didn’t answer, just looked at the constantly ringing cell phone, “It’s Su Xi, right? You answer it first.”
Lan Yu Feng didn’t make a sound.
Like she didn’t really care, she lifted the covers and stepped out of bed, “I’ll go check on your little bean first.”
Glancing at her, Lan Yu Feng reached out and pulled her in.
“Sit down.” He patted the head of the bed, signaling her.
Zige was a little surprised, but complied in sitting down. He glanced at her and answered the phone. As expected, it was Su Xi’s voice coming from over there, “Brother Yu Feng, the media rushed in today, what should I do? This inhuman and ghostly appearance of mine right now has been captured by them! I have no way to imagine what will be in the newspapers tomorrow!”
“You don’t have to worry, Su Chen and I will help you figure it out.” Lan Yu Feng looked calm.
“Come over here and stay with me, okay? I’m so afraid they’ll come in again … I don’t want to face those limelights alone anymore!”
Her words, clear as day.
Ziggy sat there with her head hanging down, pretending to play with her fingers, but actually listening with her ears perked up.
“Okay, I’ll be there later.” He replied in this way.
Ziggy bit her lower lip lightly.
Honestly, she’s still petty and still cares a little.
Hanging up the phone, Zi Ge did not take the lead in speaking, Lan Yu Feng looked at her slightly astringent little face, his mood felt slightly soothed.
His body lazily leaned back and narrowed his eyes at her, “In the evening, you and I will go see Su Xi together.”
“What?” Ziggy thought for a moment and immediately shook her head, “I don’t want it!”
Su Xi already annoyed her enough, if she showed up with him again, wouldn’t that obviously irritate her?
“You have no choice!”
“Hey! Why are you still so bossy?”
Lan Yu Feng looked at her with deep eyes, “You don’t want Su Xi to die to me?”
Zi Ge was stunned for a moment, a moment, or lightly pursed her lips, “She saved me, if I do this … will it be too beneficent to return the favor?”
“So because of payback, you didn’t hesitate to leave Moscow when she asked you to?”
“I wouldn’t rule that out, but the most important thing is that I heard with my own ears that you’re going to marry her …”
Until this moment, the words of that day were still ringing so clearly in her ears. Moreover, over this period of time, it was like a magic spell that constantly surrounded her ears, stimulating her every nerve.
“Am I that much for you not to believe? Hmm?” Lan Yu Feng suddenly hugged the back of her head, his long fingers running through her soft shiny hair, forcing her to bend down to learn. The two of them, were so close, so close, that Zi Ge could almost clearly count his long, slightly raised eyelashes.
Zi Ge raised her eyes to look at him and lightly bit the corner of her lips, “I … worry that you can’t let go of the past …”
Her words, let him slightly stunned for a second. Long eyelashes, slightly drooped down some, half a long time, only then darkly opened his mouth, “I admit, I’m a very stubborn person, those things in the past, now … I still can’t do completely put down.”
Just last night, he was having nightmares.
That one, like a magic spell. Piercing, piercing.
His answer, Zi Ge was not surprised at all. However, it still couldn’t help the circle of loss that kept swirling in her heart.
Round and Round …
The Bigger the Circle …
Lan Yu Feng could feel her emotions and patted her head, stepping back a bit and looking at her, “But I will try to forget.”
And …
He had every confidence that with her and the baby, someday … those nightmares could gradually recede and no longer haunt him …
“What did you just say?” Ziggy, still reeling from the loss and not hearing him clearly, repeated the question.
“Push me downstairs, it’s time for me to go to the office.” He, without repeating it.
“What the hell did you just say?” Ziggy pressed.
“Come with me to the hospital at night. Don’t go anywhere until I come back for you.”
“Hey!” Ziggy was not happy that he was being so perfunctory with himself.
Pushing him, out of the elevator, she still sulked until he got into the car. Before closing the car door, Lan Yu Feng waved at her, “Come here.”
“What for?” Though reluctant, Ziggy padded over.
“I’ll try to forget.” He looked at her seriously, his eyes deep, “Give me time.”
So that’s what he just said?
Zi Ge’s heart trembled, raised her lips, and smiled gently. And then, nodded seriously, “I’ll wait for you at home. And, I have lots and lots of time …”
Enough to wait for him.
The word ‘home’ brought a smile to his eyes.
Does he, uh, have a home?
Suddenly, it was like, the place where she and her children were, was home. Also, only where they are, can be considered home.
After sending Lan Yu Feng away, Zi Ge turned around to see the child standing in the doorway looking at her with a smile.
She walked over and picked him up, “Why did you run out without blow drying your hair?”
“Mommy, you and Daddy won’t be separated from now on, will you?” The child asked.
The smile on Zige’s face couldn’t help but deepen, “If that’s true, are you happy?”
“That’s for sure!” The child nodded, “When Mommy and Daddy are happy, so is Little Bean!”
“What a monkey’s ass, talking like that.”
“The Monkey Wizard was born to Mommy and Daddy, too.” Little Bean raised her chin in triumph.
Ziggy cried and laughed.
“But, Mommy, if you and Daddy never separate, what about Uncle Ko?” The child suddenly thought of this question.
Zi Ge instead froze for a moment. When she thought about the delivery of the night snack that night, she suddenly felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.
He hadn’t called her a single time in the last few days.
She called and he didn’t answer.
Is it angry?
Will there be a day when they … can’t even be friends with each other?
If that’s true, she’ll feel sad and sorry, I guess!
But …
Sometimes, many personnel are beyond the grasp of the tiny ones.
There are gains and there will be losses …
“Mommy, Uncle Kirk is going to be sad, isn’t he?”
“Maybe …”
“Mommy wouldn’t be happy if Uncle Koko was sad, would she?”
“Uh-huh.” Ziggy nodded.
“Mommy’s not happy, then Little Bean’s not happy either.” Little Bean nuzzled her neck.
Hearing the child say this, Zige’s heart was slightly relieved. Tightening him, she smiled openly slightly, “Mommy take you to blow dry your hair, don’t catch a cold.”
“Thanks Mommy.” The child nodded.
Ziggy smiled away slightly.
It seems that she should go back and look for Hengjun. The guy was alone, so nothing should happen to him, right?
When it was time for dinner, Lan Yu Feng had not yet returned. Looking at the table full of dishes, Zi Ge wanted to call him to ask if he was back, but she took the phone and bit her lip and put it down.
“Ma’am, sir called.”
When the housekeeper called her, that ‘ma’am’ made her smile. It was only after she took the call that she deliberately rushed to the phone and righteously corrected the housekeeper, “Just call me Ms. Meng.”
“Talking to the butler about what?” Obviously, he heard him clearly, but, still, he asked knowingly.
“Nothing, I’m just correcting the name calling.” Ziggy said that on purpose.
“Don’t like the title ‘ma’am’?” Lan Yu Feng sat on the sofa, flipping through the papers in his lap.
“I think you were the one who specifically warned them not to call me ‘ma’am’ before.”
“Now you’re going over old ground with me?”
“Wouldn’t dare.” Ziggy spat, her tone relaxed.
Lan Yu Feng paused for a moment and said, “If I ask them to call you ‘ma’am’ now, should you?”
The tip of his heart was beating wildly.
The corners of his lips, he couldn’t help but raise them higher.
Ziggy, however, pretended to be calm, collected and proud, and mused before saying, “I’ll think about it!”
Lan Yu Feng smiled over there. A smile that had been a long time coming.
“I have a meeting in a little while, so I won’t be back to have dinner with you. I’ll be back to pick you up in the evening and go to the hospital together.”
“Then I’ll wait for you.” Zige paused and added, “Even if you’re busy, you should remember to eat yourself. Pay attention to your body.”
“Well, don’t worry, there’s a secretary for dinner.”
“Good. I’ll hang up then.”
Over there, Lan Yu Feng didn’t make a sound for a while, and Zi Ge didn’t hang up immediately, as if each other were greedily listening to each other’s breathing over the phone.
It’s been a long time …
It wasn’t until Little Bean screamed that she was hungry that she snapped back to her senses and hurriedly hung up the phone.
Glancing at the phone, he lifted his lips and smiled away.
The heart … is like smeared with honey, there is an indescribable sweetness and happiness …
Everything, it seems, came so suddenly.
But …
She’s going to try very, very hard to hold on to …
This time, never let go again …
When Yan Nan pushed the door in, he saw his smile and couldn’t help but follow suit.
“Anything happy?”
“What?” Lan Yu Feng slightly raised the peak of his eyebrows as he looked at Yan Nan.
Yan Nan handed him the meeting flow to go through before saying, “This kind of smile can still be seen in Moscow. Since returning to China, sir has not been in the best of moods.”
“Yes?” He asked rhetorically, the answer noncommittal.
“Because the young master is back?”
“Not really.”
“Then it is because of … Ms. Meng?” Yan Nan boldly guessed.
Lan Yu Feng didn’t answer again, he just looked down at the information of the meeting, and soon, the topic was brought to work.
Full …
The tone of voice is relaxed and pleased …
In such a state, even Yan Nan, who was working together, felt much more relaxed. One must know that before this, the dreariness of his stormy days could be so depressing that it would drive one crazy.
Standing outside the hospital room, thinking of Su Xi’s last sharp look, Zi Ge could not help but feel a little chagrined. Her current situation, was already bad, and for them to come over together and say they wore true colors was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
Trying to say something, Lan Yu Feng turned slightly and held her slightly cool hand.
“Don’t think about it, these things, she’s always going to have to face them.”
“Just in case she loses control of her emotions, should we notify Su Chen first?” Zige asked worriedly.
“I’ve called him beforehand, and in ten minutes, he’ll be there.”
Ziggy let out a breath, “That’s good. But …”
She lowered her eyes at him, “Are you sure you want to do this? She … has given so much for you.”
Until now, Zi Ge still can’t forget the words Su Xi said in front of her in the kitchen that day when she spread out her palms.
Her love for him was genuine, and no one could deny that.
“Is it hard to believe that you want me to actually marry her?” He turned to her, narrowing his eyes.
Zige nuzzled her mouth and looked away. It was a while before she muttered in a thin voice, “Of course I don’t want to.”
Picking his lips, Lan Yu Feng didn’t pause any longer and pushed open the door of the hospital room to enter.
When they entered, Su Xi was finishing her infusion, and when she saw Lan Yu Feng, she bloomed into a smile.
“Brother Yu Feng!”
