CHAPTER XX
The calm before the storm always gives the illusion that everything is good.
Ling Beibei hasn't been to Bundi for the past few days, and she doesn't go out much, and occasionally makes a dessert at home, and even the glory around Zhou Yanqi feels that Ling Beibei seems to have changed as a person.
Only Zhou Yanqi, the more Ling Beibei was like this, the more he felt that something was wrong. In the eyes of outsiders, the arrogant and mischievous Ling Beibei is already developing in the direction of a good wife and mother, and she is polite to everyone. At home, Ling Beibei did the same to him, the two of them didn't seem to have happened before, as long as he appeared in the place, Ling Beibei hid far away, and even the water cup was unwilling to be put with him.
When a woman has an awkward quarrel and you don't know what's wrong, even sleeping at night can give you nightmares.
And not sleeping well at night will make people haggard, Ling Beibei's gentle and virtuous head has not been a few days old, but Zhou Yanqi has lost a few pounds.
At dinner, Zhou's mother still felt strange, glanced at Ling Beibei, who was eating fruit in the living room, pulled her son to the kitchen, and asked in a low voice, "Son, have you been busy lately?"
Zhou Yanqi also subconsciously glanced at Ling Beibei, and shook his head a little helplessly: "No." β
Zhou's mother knew her child's temperament, and if she didn't want to say it, she couldn't ask. The state of this little couple looks like there is no problem, but why is there always a trace of worry in his son's eyes?
"I heard that Xuanrong is back, do you know about this?" Zhou's mother dragged her son into the kitchen as if she suddenly remembered something.
When Xuanrong was mentioned, Zhou's mother felt uncomfortable. is also a very good girl, or the daughter of her best friend when she was young, Zhou Yanqi and her can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, until there was a little disagreement when she went abroad to study, and the two broke up without knowing why. Both of them are extremely stubborn tempers, and neither of them has retained this feeling. Although Zhou Yanqi didn't say anything, his whole person's spirit was not as good as before, and even his smile was a little perfunctory. Zhou Yanqi's grandfather also felt sorry for his grandson, turned up old things, found Ling Beibei, and the two children were also happy, saying that they would get married.
At the beginning, Zhou's mother was not very satisfied with Ling Beibei, the girls from wealthy families were somewhat arrogant, and they were a few years younger than Zhou Yanqi, so she was worried that this girl would not be able to take care of her son. After getting along a few times, she gradually accepted Ling Beibei, and slowly, she forgot about Xuanrong. Until a few days ago, Xuanrong personally called and told herself in the name of saying hello that she had returned to China.
Seeing that the little couple got along better and better, he really felt sorry for Ling Beibei, and he kept this matter a secret. But in order to avoid accidents, she felt that it was still necessary to tell her son before her daughter-in-law knew about it.
Zhou Yanqi knew what it meant, and nodded honestly: "I know, she looked for me." β
Zhou's mother was shocked, "She has looked for you? Does Bei Bei know? Mother can tell you that you are now married to Bei Bei, and you can mess around as much as you want before, but in this matter, you must definitely maintain your own position." β
Women know women best, of course she knows what Xuanrong means when she comes back this time, but there are some things, the past is the past, she will never allow anyone to destroy their big family, even if this person is Xuanrong, it can't work.
Of course Zhou Yanqi would not do such a thing, he only has Ling Beibei in his heart now. It's just that he hasn't figured out what contradictions are going on between the two of them yet, so he can only let that little awkward be "cold and violent" to himself every day.
But even so, he was reluctant to say a bad word about her.
The little ancestor you choose can only be used to it.
Zhou Yanqi was afraid that Ling Beibei would be suspicious if he stayed in the kitchen for a long time, so he perfunctory his mother, took a glass of grape juice and walked out.
In the living room, Ling Beibei is enjoying a calligraphy and painting with Zhou's father, Zhou's father usually has no hobbies, he likes to collect some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, Ling Beibei has been exposed to Ling's father since he was a child, and he can also chat a few words in this regard, you come and go, Zhou's father is even more impressed with his daughter-in-law.
"What are you talking about?" Zhou Yanqi put down the juice, propped his hands on the sofa beside Ling Beibei, and happened to stand in a posture that circled her, looking more intimate and intimate.
Ling Beibei responded in his heart, but he couldn't show it, he tilted his head slightly, and said bluntly: "Accompany my father to read calligraphy and painting." Just when you came, you see, I'm a little tired, so I'll go upstairs and rest first. Good night dad. β
Her whole body was obviously unhappy, every cell was resisting hard, in front of her father, she couldn't ask her anything, but she couldn't let her be lukewarm like this. Even if you die, you must know where you are wrong.
He crossed his heart, took Ling Beibei's hand, and said very gently: "It just so happens that I'm a little sleepy today." Dad, we'll go upstairs first. β
After speaking, he deliberately didn't look at Ling Beibei's eyes, half-pulled and half-hugged, and pulled Ling Beibei upstairs.
When Zhou's mother came out, she found that Zhou's father was the only one in the living room, and asked strangely: "What about the two children?
Dad Zhou smiled unfathomably, and shook the newspaper in his hand: "Young people's affairs, let him go." β
The atmosphere upstairs was extremely cold, and after entering the house, Ling Beibei broke free of his hand, walked to the window and turned his back to him, refusing to say a word.
Zhou Yanqi didn't approach, kept his distance, and patiently enlightened his children: "Beibei, can we have a good talk between us?"
He Zhou Yanqi swore that he had never been so patient in his life. Obviously, he is the one who is confused by the "Cold War", and in turn, he has to be patient to enlighten the other party. It was probably at this time that Zhou Yanqi suddenly understood that Ling Beibei was already the most special one in his heart.
The reason why she is the most special is that I am willing to do anything for her.
Ling Beibei remained silent, not bothering him at all.
"I don't know what's wrong with you, and you're lukewarm to me. It's completely different from your previous attitude towards me, if you have any ideas, you can tell me. Don't always play with the child's temper. Zhou Yanqi could only see her back, and she didn't know that her face was already very ugly.
was about to continue to play the victim, but saw Ling Beibei quickly turn around and approach him step by step, with white teeth, hating to bite him to death.
"Isn't my attitude bad? Don't interfere with each other, that's not what you want. Do I have to grovel to you every day, ask for peace and security, do you think you can be worthy of you?"
"I didn't mean it that wayγγγ"
Before Zhou Yanqi finished speaking, Ling Beibei stretched out his hand to stop him: "I don't want to know what you mean now." I want to ask you, what is a child's temperament? It's that you meet your ex-girlfriend in private, and you take back what she gave you, and I can't even bear to touch it. Now you are still delusional and ask me to have a good attitude towards you, Zhou Yanqi, can you not be naΓ―ve like a child?"
