Chinese New Year's Eve was moonlight, the wind was very strong, and it was also very cold, so that Chang An forgot to resist after being covered by the other party, and after two or three seconds, she smelled the familiar tobacco and body odor on his shoulder, and her brain boomed.

"Zhou... Zhou?"

The hand around her waist tightened a little more, and a muffled voice came from her ear: "Hmm..."

Chang An's whole person was not good, and he pushed and stood up straight from his arms, "How are you..."

"Why don't you answer the phone?"

“……”

"Why does my phone keep turning off?"

“……”

"I can't get in touch in the middle of the night, do you know that I've been looking for you since I got off the plane?"

I haven't seen him for almost a month, but I didn't expect him to be criticized as soon as I met him, his eyes were cold in the cold wind, and he was vicious.

Chang An was first frightened because of his sudden appearance, and then he was wronged, like someone stuffing a ball of cotton in his chest.

She steadied slightly, "I... My phone is out of battery, I just watched the Spring Festival Gala with Grandma Chen, why are you so fierce to me?"

In the cold wind, she spit white mist in her mouth, the tip of her nose was red from the cold, and her eyes were also aggrieved.

Only then did Zhou Wei realize that he had put on the oolong, and he raised his hand to cover the hat on Chang An's coat and wrap the person.

"Go in!"

As soon as Chang An entered the door, he saw Zhou Wei's suitcase at the entrance, and then he remembered to ask him why he came back suddenly.

Although she doesn't know the specific itinerary of Zhou Xun over there, it can also be seen from the recent wind direction on the Internet that the IPO has reached the final stage, and the approximate listing time leaked by the media should be early March.

But as soon as Chang An turned around, Zhou Wei was no longer in the living room, and his coat was thrown on the sofa casually.

The kitchen was lit up, and she walked over, and Zhou Wei was fetching water to drink.

"Hey, that's ice. ”

She went over to grab the cup, but Zhou Wei turned to the side slightly, and half a cup of ice water had already been poured down by him.

Chang An: "......"

He clutched the empty cup, his eyes shining in the light as if it was colder than the cold wind outside.

Chang An felt as if he had a great fire in his heart, waiting for him to attack, but Zhou Wei let out a deep breath, and the anxiety that had accumulated in the middle of the night had already gone for most of the night, and all that was left was a sense of powerlessness at a loss.

After thinking about it, I still didn't dare to be fierce to her again.

"In the future, remember to charge your phone quickly when it runs out of battery!" I'm worried that I can't contact you, but Zhou Wei didn't say the latter sentence.

Chang An let out an "oh" and asked again, "Why did you come back suddenly?"

"Come back to spend Chinese New Year's Eve with you. ”

"Really?" Chang An obviously didn't believe in this reason, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? Or did you have a problem with your project?" Chang An felt that there must be a reason for Zhou Wei's sudden return, and after thinking about it, there was a situation in the IPO.

"I read the news a few days ago that you haven't had a local certification, isn't it..."

"No, that's already settled. ”

"So there are other problems?"

Chang An speculated wildly, looking very worried.

Zhou Wei threw the water cup into the pool next to him, and suddenly asked, "Mom looked for you alone a few days ago?"

Chang An was stunned, "How do you know?"

"The stars called me. ”

Yes, no wonder... Chang An instantly understood, "So you came back suddenly, just because my mother saw me alone?"

Zhou Yan didn't make a sound, only turned his hand to support the pool platform and stood up straight, and walked in front of Chang An.

He said, "I'm worried about you. ”

"Are you worried about me?" Chang An thought funny, "Mom asked me out for a cup of tea, and you have to fly back from the United States to worry?"

Zhou Wei didn't speak, Chang An's raised gaze just met him, at first she could still carry it, but because the distress in the other party's eyes was too strong, and it was illuminated by the warm lamp in the kitchen, it seemed that there was nowhere to hide.

Well, she admits that there is a little grievance, a little ... It's hard to settle.

"Huh......" Chang An exhaled, "What did the stars tell you?"

"Say Mom wants us to divorce!"

“……”

This was a little embarrassing, she really didn't want to provoke the relationship between Zhou Wei and his mother.

"So you're so scared that you flew back from the United States, afraid that my mother will make me feel wronged?"

"I'm afraid you'll run away again!"

When these words came out of Zhou Wei's mouth, he couldn't help but look a little depressed, and then recalled that he rushed over at the door just now to hug him, and his impatient appearance seemed to be really frightened.

Chang An's heart was heavily stirred, she slowly walked in front of Zhou Xian, put her face against his chest, and wrapped her arms around his waist.

It's a gesture of active hugging.

"I promised you before you went to the United States, I won't leave, I'll wait for you to come back, so you don't have to worry that I'll run away suddenly. ”

Chang An said very softly and slowly.

Zhou Yi settled, his heart seemed to be thrown into a boulder, ripples, circles and circles of fainting and shaking, and it took a while before he hung down, his palm wrapped around Chang An's face, and he lowered his head and kissed lightly......

The two of them were tired of being in the kitchen for a while, but they didn't get to the point, mainly because Zhou Wei didn't even eat dinner all the way, it was almost two o'clock, and he ate a little bit on the plane.

It's not realistic to call takeout at this point, not to mention that many takeaway guys have returned to their hometowns during the Spring Festival, and most of the takeaways have been stopped.

"Why don't you cook some quick-frozen dumplings, there's something in the fridge." Chang An suggested.

Zhou Wei is not in a position to be a picky eater at this time.

Chang An took a bag of quick-frozen dumplings out and put water in the pot.

Zhou Wei: "I'll come." ”

Chang An: "No, you go and sit on the sofa for a while, wait!"

Zhou Wei: "Are you sure?"

Chang An: "Of course, it's no problem for me to cook quick-frozen dumplings." ”

Zhou Wei smiled, and stopped grabbing her, just when the mobile phone rang loudly, it was daytime in the United States, and Zhou Wei went outside to answer the phone.

Chang An waited for the water to boil, and threw more than a dozen quick-frozen dumplings into it, thinking that he was afraid that he would not be full, so he flipped through it in the refrigerator again.

Half an hour later, Zhou Wei finished a few phone calls and went to the restaurant, where a bowl of dumplings, a plate of cut beef, a small plate of olive vegetables, and a fruit bowl were already on the table.

"It's hearty!"

Chang An was setting the dishes and chopsticks, and gave him a smug look, "Let you look down on me!"

"Don't dare again!"

Zhou Wei untied the sleeve nails, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt a few layers, and did not sit down immediately, but spread his arms on the table.

"Well, quick-frozen dumplings, canned olive vegetables, this plate of beef is also ready-made, right?" Zhou Wei ruthlessly debunked.

Chang An's face couldn't be controlled for a while, and he was so angry that he put the vinegar dish in front of him, "If you don't like to eat, forget it!"

"I didn't say I don't like to eat!" he reached out and scooped Chang An's head, "At least I know how to stock up on food in the refrigerator, this has improved." ”

She never knew how to do this before, and the food at home was bought by part-time workers, and she went to the supermarket to stock up on daily necessities at most, and then snacks, and what yogurt ice cream would be stocked up on in the refrigerator.

Zhou Wei sat down to eat, to be honest, the dumplings were cooked a little badly by her, and the taste of the bagged beef was not good, just one olive vegetable could still be eaten, so he ate seven or eight dumplings with that small plate of olive vegetables.

Chang An's heart was a little unhappy, he flew back from the United States during the Chinese New Year, and he gave him this to eat.

"When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow noon flight. ”

"In such a hurry?"

"I could have stayed for two more hours, but the direct flight back was sold out, and I needed to go to Hong Kong for a transfer, and there was something to do at night. ”

The round-trip flight takes nearly 30 hours, not counting the time for round-trip, waiting and connecting flights from the airport.

Chang An saw that Zhou Wei picked out all the fillings in the dumplings and almost only ate the dumpling skins, she sighed slightly.

"Take a shower after eating and rest early. ”

Zhou Wei answered the phone one after another during the meal, and he should have been sitting there at this critical time, but he left everyone behind and ran back, thinking that the team over there should also be panicked.

Chang An simply cleaned up the table, dishes and chopsticks, and came out to see that Zhou Wei was still on the phone, in English, Chang An didn't listen specifically, but looking at his demeanor and expression, he knew that it was a matter of work.

She gestured to him, went upstairs to take a shower first, and halfway through the shower, the door opened, and Zhou Wei walked in.

Chang settled down, subconsciously blocked it with his arm, and asked calmly in his mouth: "Something?"

Zhou Wei didn't speak, paced over, until he walked under the shower, the water poured down, and soon his body was drenched, and the muscle lines of his upper body were ironed inch by inch with his shirt.

"You ......" Chang An just wanted to speak, the back of his head was already being held, and Zhou Yan kissed him on the waist.

I haven't seen each other for almost a month, each other's bodies are like dry wood touching fire, easily ignited, and finally Zhou Wei lifted Chang An's leg and pressed her buttocks against the wall with the palm of his hand.

The hot water is still pouring down, and the body brushes through layers of pleasure in the white heat, and in the end, Chang An's leg on the ground can't hold it anymore, Zhou Yi simply lifted the person up, to the waist, and all of a sudden, Chang An's toes straightened, and he couldn't help but let out a low groan in his mouth, and his head tilted back......

Chang An can't remember how it ended later, but he only remembered that he was thrown into the water by him in sweat, and the bath he took just now was washed in vain.

Zhou Yi also flushed together, and after washing, he took a bath towel and wrapped Chang An hastily, hugged him to the bed first, and then went back to clean up the messy bathroom.

By the time Zhou Wei came out in his pajamas again, it was half an hour later.

I simply wiped my hair and went to bed, uncovered the quilt, and pulled the soft body in the quilt into my arms.

"Still not sleeping?"

Chang An didn't say anything, only adjusted a comfortable sleeping position in his arms, the throbbing in the bathroom just now had slowly calmed down, and his face was just buried in his neck socket at this time, smelling the body odor that belonged to him on the skin, and his raised Adam's apple happened to be everywhere he looked.

Chang An reached over and gently flicked it on the bulge.

"Huh?" Zhou said.

Chang An smiled: "It seems to be a dream?"

Zhou Wei: "What do you mean?"

Chang An: "Obviously, a few hours ago, I was thinking about sending you WeChat, and in the blink of an eye, you were in front of you." She paused, her fingers still resting on his Adam's apple, where a small piece of bone would roll gently once when she flicked it, and the room was now peaceful, as if only each other were embracing.

Chang An: "Mr. Zhou......"

Zhou: "Huh?"

Chang An: "It's early in the morning, it's a new year." ”

Zhou Wei: "Well, it's a new year. ”

In fact, he also felt like he was dreaming, and more than two months ago, He had thought that he could hug her and sleep on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Chang An: "How many years after we got married?"

Zhou Ming: "The seventh." ”

Chang An: "No, the middle three years can't be counted." ”

Zhou Wei: "Why can't it be counted?"

The room was dim, and they couldn't see the expressions on each other's faces when they hugged each other, but Chang An suddenly snorted like a child, "Anyway, it can't be counted, otherwise we will soon be a seven-year itch." ”

Zhou Wei paused, and then laughed.

He gave full marks for this reason.

The back of his hand gently pinched Chang An's waist, "Okay, if you don't count, you don't count." ”

Chang An: "And the first two years can't be counted. ”

Zhou Wei: "Why?"

Chang An pushed him away and shrank back a little, "I can't ask you why? Do you think about where you were in those two years, and who were you with?"

Well, this is probably the biggest trick in his life that fell into her hands.

"Okay, don't count!" he hugged Chang An into his arms again.

Chang An: "That's four years, and it's the fifth year from now on." She suddenly put her hand on Zhou Xin's heart, and her fingers stretched out to draw a circle on it.

"Mr. Zhou, in the new year, I wish you a prosperous career and a prosperous financial resource. ”

Zhou Wei listened to the soft voice in his arms, and his breathing seemed to become very long.

He grabbed Chang An's hand away, and his fingers interlocked with it.

"Mrs. Zhou, it is better to wish me a strong body and a happy marriage!"

"Poof..."

Chang An felt that this man was really getting more and more rogue in private.

"You mouth full of trains, I seriously doubt that you must have been a woman in the past three years!"

"I've wronged it. ”

"Why should I trust you?"

"Why don't you ask my brother to swear to you?"

Chang An's hand was still held by Zhou Wei, he picked it up and probed down, Chang An didn't react at first, until he touched something hard.

"Hey, you're ......"

"How?"

"How's that?"

"Why don't you go and talk to him to see if there have been any unruly behaviors in the past few years?"

Chang An's cheeks were hot with shame, "I won't tell you, sleep!" After speaking, he turned around and didn't say a word to Zhou Xian again.

Zhou Yi didn't hold back for a while, laughed for a while, and went to grab Chang An's shoulder.

"Hey, really slept?"

"Sleep!"

"I don't have anything to say to me, I'll leave tomorrow at noon." ”

Chang An's eyes, which were originally closed in the dark, suddenly opened, and she understood what he meant, but what did she have to say?

The room was quiet for a while, and Zhou Wei saw that she hadn't moved, so he leaned over and hugged Chang An from behind.

Chang An heard his slightly heavy breathing, followed by a hoarse voice.

He said, "Was it very aggrieved at that time?"

Chang An's eyes closed in an instant.

Is it wronged? It must be false to say that he is not wronged, after all, what Liu Shulan said at that time was so ugly, but it didn't seem to be much pain.

"It's alright!" she said softly.

Zhou Wei sighed slightly.

On the phone, Zhou Xin only said that his mother had approached Chang An and wanted to force her to divorce, but he didn't say anything specific about the conversation, but how could Zhou Xin not understand Liu Shulan's temperament, there must be a reason why she came here for no reason.

At that time, Zhou Wei called Liu Shulan, and Liu Shulan did not hide it, saying that she had hired a private detective to find out what happened to Chang An in the past three years, and after thinking twice, she decided to talk to her about divorce.

What's worse is that Liu Shulan told Chang An that he also admitted that he couldn't have children, which was undoubtedly to make matters worse, Zhou Wei could almost imagine the picture of his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sitting opposite each other, one must be aggressive, one aggrieved and sad.

Zhou Wei was not at ease after thinking about it, so he bought a ticket and flew back.

"Do you remember I told you before I left, if my mother embarrasses you, you want to call me as soon as possible, why don't you listen?"

There was a faint anger in these words, but the arm wrapped around Chang An's waist was hugged tighter.

Chang An slowly took a breath, and she turned around.

Well, since he came all the way back from the United States for this matter, and he has already said this, there is no way to escape or hide it, so it is better to explain it to him clearly.

"Zhou Xuan..."Chang An looked into his eyes and asked, "Do you believe me?"

Zhou Yan paused, "Hmm." ”

"Well, then I'll tell you, if your mother comes back to me again, I won't tell you either. ”

“……”

"It's not that I'm trying to hide it, I don't think it's necessary. ”

"How is it unnecessary. ”

"Listen to me first. She stepped up and down and rested on the pillow to meet his eye level.

"First of all, I think it's normal for your mother to let me divorce in this situation, no mother can accept a daughter-in-law who has taken drugs, and this daughter-in-law can't have children, let alone your kind of family, so although she said something a little excessive, I can understand and forgive from her point of view, really, I can forgive. ”

“… Of course, forgiveness does not mean acceptance, she asked me to leave you, I refused on the spot, I said I will not leave, as long as you don't give up on me, I have no reason to give up on you again, so unless you let me go, the rest of the people can't decide whether I go or stay. ”

"Secondly, I really don't think there is any need to tell you, just a small thing, although there were some grievances at the time, but this grievance is nothing compared to what I have endured in the past three years, not to mention that you are so busy in the United States, and I don't want to cause you trouble for this. ”

"In the end..."Chang An stopped and stared at Zhou Wei seriously for a while, although there was no light in the room, her eyes seemed to be able to catch more light after adapting to the darkness, and she absorbed energy from Zhou Wei's deep pupils little by little.

"I know that Mom's side is just the beginning, from the moment I am willing to promise you to come back and promise to stay by your side, I know that sooner or later my drug abuse will be revealed, so Mom's words are where to go, if I can't even cope with her, how can I fight side by side with you in the future!"

Zhou Wei felt really bad at the time, he was distressed and sad, but he was damn relieved.

She was strong enough, because she was strong enough to bring herself back intact and bring her to him.

She had to be brave enough to withstand the bullets she might encounter in the future, but he didn't seem to be able to help with all this.

"Chang An..."Zhou Wei gritted his teeth and hugged the person into his arms.

In her arms is her gentle body, very soft and very thin.

It's really hard to imagine how much power is hidden in this soft and thin body, and how much surprise can surprise him again and again.

"I'm sorry..."

Chang An leaned on his shoulder and laughed, "What did you do to tell me sorry for no reason?"

"I don't know!"

He really didn't know, maybe it was because Liu Shulan forced her to divorce, maybe it was because she was wronged but she couldn't be by her side, or maybe because she was incompetent three years ago and didn't save her from the kidnappers, in short, everything caused today's situation, he couldn't get it back, but he asked her to face the despair and fear of the unknown.

"Why don't you come with me to the United States tomorrow?"

Chang settled down, okay, dare to love what she just said just now that it was all in vain.

"You still don't believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe it, I just think..."

"No, it's just that. Chang An interrupted him, "Zhou Xian, let me tell you, no one wants to do what happened back then, so it's not your fault, if I bear anything for what happened back then now or in the future, this is my responsibility, take drugs, not to mention the legal morality involved, wrong is wrong, even if the original intention is not up to me, but this is not an excuse for me to make mistakes, do you understand? This is a hurdle, I have to face it myself, I have to live by myself, no one can help me." ”

Chang An held Zhou Wei's face and said these words word by word.

Looking back on the past three years, she was addicted, she fell, and then she hid in Tibet, even if her identity was cancelled and she couldn't find a proper job, she borrowed Zheng Qiuzhen's expired copy of her ID card to pick up odd jobs everywhere, and she couldn't even get a mobile phone card, so she could only wander around the darkest corner like a mouse, and she didn't dare to go to the police station to restore her identity.

Afraid of what?

In addition to not being able to face the surroundings, unable to face relatives, and unable to face the past, in the final analysis, what she can't face is only herself, and if there is a future, there is also a future, all she needs to do is face herself and live again.

"I know that there may be some time in the future when I will experience some pain, and you will definitely be affected, but you have to believe me, I can stay with you, I have the courage and guts. ”

She is like a little fighter, a fighter who is both distressed and moving, but she is not fighting for anyone, she is fighting for herself, which is why she is clear and stable in her heart.

"You know what?...... I saw you for the first time," Zhou Wei raised his hand and stroked Chang An's face, "You introduced yourself to me at the time, you said that your name was Chang An, and your eyes drifted over gently, I felt that you were not as weak as you looked on the outside." ”

Her face can probably frighten everyone, and they all say that the eldest lady of the Chang family is docile and gentle, but Wen is there, and it is not necessarily smooth.

The energy in her bones is really unstoppable.

"Okay, I believe in you, but you also have to believe in me, I am in business, not in politics, and some things will not have a big impact on me. ”

"Hmm. ”

Chang An finally laughed, "I know, you are not afraid of heaven and earth!"

Zhou Wei raised his eyebrows after hearing this, "This may not be." ”

"Huh?"

"Do you know that I have been calling you since I got off the plane, but you always turned off the phone, I rushed to the hospital from Changhe, and then rushed from the hospital to the hotel, and then from the hotel to Jardine, at that time I thought you were gone again, scared me ......"

"How scared you?"

Zhou Wei recalled the mood of driving outside in the first half of the night, which is really indescribable.

"Forget it, sleep!" he turned his head and buckled Chang An into his arms again.

Chang An struggled to knock him, "Hey, you haven't said it yet, how scared you?"

"Don't say it, don't move around, or I'll pick you up!"

“……”
