In the evening, Ye Qian was eating cherries on the sofa and watching TV.

Gu Shen called a few times, Ye Qian didn't go upstairs, Gu Shen had no choice but to come down from upstairs, sat down beside her, and buried his head in her neck, "Wife, go upstairs to sleep, you and the baby are tired." ”

Ye Qian pushed his head, "Don't make trouble, my mother hasn't come back yet, I'll wait for her." ”

Gu Shen raised his head, "Didn't you call to ask, if it's not easy to call a taxi, I'll go over and pick it up now." ”

As soon as Lingang passed nine o'clock in the evening, the bus and subway were almost all suspended, and the taxi was particularly difficult to call.

"Just hit. Ye Qian was a little helpless, "She said that someone sent her back and asked me to sleep first, so I didn't have to wait for her." ”

Gu Shen fiddled with the remote control, "Then let's sleep first, if my mother is a child, she has her own life." ”

Ye Qian put down the glass bowl containing cherries, turned to look at Gu Shen and said, "Don't you think mom has been very problematic lately?"

Gu Shen smiled, "I think you are too nervous, my mother is such an adult, she has so much life experience, she knows how to take care of herself." ”

Ye Qian retorted, "But...... Don't you think mom has been going out too often lately? I've tried to ask her out a few times, but she doesn't have time. ”

Ye Zixuan never did this before, when she was on vacation, she would especially cherish the time she spent with Ye Qian, but now Ye Qian has a feeling of being abandoned by her mother.

Gu Shen pinched her nose and smiled: "You are not a little girl, you have to be accompanied by your mother in everything you do." If you want to buy anything, your husband will accompany you. ”

Ye Qian slapped his hand away, "That's not what I said, don't deliberately distort what I mean." ”

Gu Shen leaned over the sofa with one elbow, "I understand, but my mother has been alone for so many years, she should also have her own friends, her own life, and it is impossible to revolve around you all the time." ”

Ye Qian's eyes blinked, and he suddenly understood what Gu Shen meant, and turned his head to look at him, "You mean mom, she...... Falling in love?"

Gu Shen said: "I'm just guessing. ”

Only this reason is both reasonable and simple, Ye Zixuan doesn't know many people in Lingang, the last time she came, she spent most of her time with Qiao Min, even when she was hospitalized at the beginning, there were not many friends who came to visit. It is impossible for her to go out early and return late like she is now, and she is always not at home.

Ye Qian was stunned, "I'm going to have a stepfather?"

Gu Shen sat up and put his arm around her shoulder, "Aren't you happy for your mother? It's time for her to find a companion." ”

Ye Qian didn't seem to have recovered from this news, and said for a while: "I just think it's a little too sudden." I'm going to have a stepfather?"

The word father was too unfamiliar to Ye Qian, and she was stunned and didn't know how to react.

Gu Shen rubbed her head and said, "As long as he is good to his mother, isn't it?"

Children are afraid of their stepfathers and stepmothers, and they feel that they don't really love themselves as much as their biological parents, and when they reach Ye Qian's age, everyone can sit down rationally and treat each other politely, and their father is just a title, it's really not that important.

In fact, Ye Qian also understands that she has now become a family, with Gu Shen, and is about to have her own children, Ye Zixuan should also find someone to be a companion, Ye Zixuan has paid too much for her over the years.

In the early years, it was not that no one pursued Ye Zixuan, but she refused all for herself, if there is a person around Ye Zixuan who loves her, loves her, and treats her sincerely, Ye Qian is willing to accept it, even if she makes concessions in some things, it doesn't matter.

While the two were talking, Ye Zixuan came back from outside, she was wearing a black and gray woolen coat and a houndstooth long skirt, dignified with a little graceful.

Ye Qian almost immediately confirmed that Gu Shen was right, her mother was really in love, and that kind of radiant and graceful charm only a woman in love could have.

Ye Zixuan was slightly stunned when she saw Ye Qian and Gu Shen sitting in the living room, and said with a little weakness: "It's so late, why haven't you gone upstairs to rest?"

"I'm waiting for you. Where have you been playing today?" Ye Qian's eyes were shining, and he looked at Ye Zixuan with a burning look.

Ye Zixuan was unnatural for a moment, she lowered her head to change her shoes, hiding the look on her face, "I didn't go anywhere, just go shopping." ”

Ye Qian still wanted to open her mouth and ask again, Gu Shen squeezed her hand, and said first: "Mom, it's not early, you can rest early, Xiao Qian and I will go upstairs first." ”

Ye Zixuan nodded with relief.

in the bedroom.

Ye Qian glared at Gu Shen dissatisfied, "Why didn't you let me ask my mother just now?"

Gu Shen smiled: "Don't stare at your mother like staring at a child in early love, when the time is ripe and we need to know, my mother will naturally say." What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Ye Qian pursed his lips, "You can say it lightly, I don't believe that if Sister Qiao falls in love, you will be as concerned as now?"

Gu Shen tilted his head against the windowsill and thought about it, "Maybe not, but I'll be happy for her." ”

"Aren't you worried that she is unladylike, what if that person cheats on her feelings?" Ye Qian became more and more worried the more he thought about it, he stood up and walked out in a hurry, "No, I have to go and ask." ”

Gu Shen hugged her from behind, "Little Ancestor, let's not be impulsive, okay?"

Ye Qian said anxiously: "No, I don't worry, I don't ask." Don't look at her, she usually looks very shrewd, but in fact, she is very soft-hearted, she can't stand a few kind words from people, and she has no emotional experience, maybe she will be deceived. ”

"Listen to me, it will be embarrassing for your mother to ask directly now, and you may not be able to ask any conclusions. ”

Ye Qian flattened his mouth and said unconvinced: "How do you know that you can't ask? Am I so stupid?"

Gu Shen was angry and funny, "Then tell me what you plan to ask?" Let's analyze and analyze it first. ”

Ye Qian didn't think about it and said: "Ask him who he is, where he works, and what is the situation at home!"

Gu Shen said: "Do you think these can prove whether he is a liar or not? If it was really a well-designed scam, he would have made it up seamlessly." ”

Ye Qian choked, and refused to stop there, and said with a stiff neck: "Then ask them about their love experience, how they met, and whether he is good to my mother, this is always okay, right?"

Gu Shen hugged her over and let her sit on his lap, "You see that our mother goes out early and returns late every day, she must still be in the honey love period, and at this time, in her eyes, the man must be full of advantages." ”

"What the hell do you mean?" Ye Qian poked him on the shoulder and said, "Why do I think you call my mother a special idiot?"

Gu Shen chuckled and said, "Aren't people who fall in love idiots, aren't they all idiots?"

"I don't know, I've always been sober and calm. ”

"Okay, you're amazing, okay!" Gu Shen pinched her fingers, too lazy to go through the old accounts with her, maybe it was not good, it would lead him out of his previous routine, and then the gains outweighed the losses.

Ye Qian hugged him and pouted, "Then you don't need to talk about it!"

Gu Shen followed her and said, "That's right, that's right...... I must have saved the earth in my last life, so I was fortunate enough to marry such a wise and martial wife!"

Ye Qian leaned back and squinted his eyes to stare at Gu Shen, "Don't think I didn't find out, you're changing the subject!"

Gu Shen said with a smile: "I just think that you can't ask any questions except for embarrassing our mother now." ”

Ye Qian's face was stiff, and he said unhappily: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what do you say?"

Gu Shen reminded: "When you fell in love when you were young, what do you want our mother to do most?"

Ye Qian didn't speak, she understood the reason, but what should she do if she still didn't feel at ease? Now she finally understood Ye Zixuan's mood when she was staring at her three times a day.

I'm always worried that my good cabbage will be arched by pigs, which feels too bad.

Gu Shenwen said: "I believe that my mother has her own judgment, give her more space, okay?"

Ye Qian pursed his lips and said nothing, and only spoke weakly for a long time, "But I'm still not at ease, what should I do?"

Gu Shen sighed and said, "At most, I promise you that I will find someone to secretly investigate this matter." But you must also promise me not to act rashly before here. ”

Ye Qian bit his lip and said, "Okay, okay, promise you, as if I would do something to sabotage." ”

……

The next day, Gu Shen arranged for someone to secretly pay attention to Ye Zixuan's daily activities.

In just half a day's work, the person sent to bring back the news.

Because Ye Zixuan's activities are too simple, since she left home in the morning, she has been with the same man, shopping, watching plays, eating, and behaving intimately, which is completely like a couple dating.

Gu Shen looked at the photos taken back, his brows were tightly locked, and he could almost kill a fly.

After a long time, he put down the photo and asked, "What about after that?

"Just before I came, they went into the art museum to see the latest art exhibition, and I heard them say that the movie was scheduled for 4:30 in the afternoon. ”

Gu Shen rubbed his sore eyebrows, "Continue to let people follow, call me at any time if there is any situation." ”

When I was about to get off work in the afternoon, the news came again that Ye Zixuan and the man went to the supermarket to buy vegetables, as if they were going home to cook together.

"I know!" Gu Shen hung up the phone and pinched his swollen forehead again.

Xia Lin threw a cigarette to him and persuaded: "Isn't it just that your mother-in-law is in love, don't you just recognize more father-in-law, as for being so worried!"

Gu Shen lit the cigarette with a "snap", and through the curling white smoke, he squinted and said, "The problem is that the person she is looking for is Jiang Heng, Ye Qian's biological father." ”

Xia Lin's eyes widened and he was surprised: "How did the two of them meet?"

Lingang said that it is not big, it is not small, so many years ago, the two people have been in this city, and they have never met, and the Spring Festival is only a few days of vacation, so they met so suddenly.

Gu Shen removed the cigarette from the corner of his lips, clipped it to his fingertips and said, "Fate has arrived!"

Of course, it may also be that Jiang Heng took the initiative to find Ye Zixuan, he didn't have news of their mother and daughter before, maybe he could bear it, but now he knows that they are staying in the same city as him, and it is impossible to endure not recognizing each other all the time.

If it were him, after so many years, he would definitely seize the time to take down his own woman first, and then recognize his daughter.

From a man's point of view, he can understand Jiang Heng's thoughts, but from Ye Qian's point of view, Ye Qian may not accept it.
