Chapter 197: I Should Protect You in This Life (2)
I haven't seen him for three months, so I didn't expect that this late night, we would meet unexpectedly on the street.
He was even thinner, losing his suit and leather shoes, dressed in a serious manner, wearing a white parent-child sweatshirt with dark blue jeans, and a pair of casual white shoes on his feet.
The little girl next to him was dressed exactly the same as him, also wearing a white parent-child sweatshirt with dark skinny jeans, and a pair of small white shoes of the same style on her feet.
The English word "dad" is reflected in the front of his clothes, and the English word "baby" is reflected in the front of the little girl's clothes.
It is a private custom model of a high-end sports brand, and the good intentions can be seen.
The little girl was bouncing around him, and as he went, he took her hand and gazed down lovingly at her every move, the girl's silver bell-like laughter and their conversation came to my ears clearly through the air.
"How can you be as greedy as you and want to eat fried chicken thighs in the middle of the night!"
"Hee-hee...... Dad, I just want to eat...... I want to walk on the road with you like this, and I finally have a holiday, and I want to be with my dad every minute. ”
"It's coming up soon, watch your step, watch ......"
Sheng Yun's words came to an abrupt end at this time, obviously, he lowered his head and saw the figures of me and Tai Ziqian on the ground.
He slowly raised his head, and the moment he saw that it was me, his gaze was stunned.
Tai Ziqian's clothes were still draped over my body, and Tai Ziqian was wearing a thin black casual shirt and standing beside me with one hand in his pocket.
Sheng Yun also stopped, Duoduo was still bouncing, until she was about to hit me, Sheng Yun quickly pulled her back.
Obviously, Duoduo was so happy that she forgot that there might be other pedestrians on the road.
Sheng Yun pulled like this, she raised her head, and when she saw that it was me, she was stunned for a moment, and then called me softly: "Aunt Shubei." ”
I nodded slightly, a smile barely on my face.
I haven't seen her for three months, Duoduo is probably doing well in school, she has grown some flesh, her face looks more fleshy than before, she looks more cute, her skin is abnormally white, and she is standing in front of Sheng Yun in slim clothes, and she can vaguely see the prototype of a graceful girl.
Her legs are very slender, the same as Sheng Yun's. Father and daughter stand together, indeed...... It's harmonious.
Sheng Yun saw that she took the initiative to call me, so she touched her head, and then slowly looked at me again, with bottomless sadness in her eyes.
"Long time no see. After a moment of stalemate, he finally spoke.
"Well, long time no see. I whispered, my voice a little hoarse, perhaps because I hadn't spoken for a long time.
"I took her to the Zhengxin Chicken Steak in front to buy fried chicken thighs, and Duoduo wanted to eat them. Sheng Yun said lightly.
"Oh, good. My tone was so light that I almost thought I didn't miss it. But my heart throbbed inexplicably.
"Take good care of yourself. He looked at me and said.
Then, he glanced at Tai Ziqian meaningfully. Seeing this, Tai Ziqian silently walked a few steps to the side, as if he deliberately avoided it, as if he wanted to give us space to speak.
"You too. I looked him in the eye and whispered.
"I will. It's cold, so go home early. He added.
"You too, go home early. I said.
There are so many things that I want to say but don't say them, and there are so many things I want to ask but I don't ask anything. We looked at each other tacitly, nodded to each other tacitly, passed by tacitly, and ...... tacitly Strangers to each other.
I walked along the street without looking back, my heart aching, and many times I wondered if if he would still be standing there and looking at me if I turned back.
However, my stubbornness does not allow me to turn back, does not allow me to bow my head.
What if he's long gone?
The relationship between him and Duoduo has obviously improved. A harmonious father-daughter relationship has clearly been established between them, so ...... What about him and Xiao Yun?
I've already said let go, don't be unwilling!
I smiled sadly, looking at the moon in the deep blue sky, and my heart became more and more empty.
Tai Ziqian chased after him and whispered in my ear: "I miss you very much, why do you deliberately pretend to be so strange? You don't explain between us? Are you not afraid that you will be so deadlocked, and you will really go away slowly?"
"Ziqian, you talk a lot at night. I smiled pretending not to care and gently nudged him with my hand.
"Okay, I won't say anything. Anyway, you are also a person with a special idea in your heart, and you have your own reasons for what you do. Tai Ziqian saw my attitude, so he said.
"Are they gone?" I asked, though I didn't look back.
"He's still in the same place, do you want to turn back?" Tai Ziqian asked me softly.
I shook my head and I said, "No, I still want to move forward." ”
"Then move forward!" Tai Ziqian's voice suddenly became determined.
He dropped me off at the door, and when he saw me inside, he was going to leave. It was so late that he couldn't drive, and he drank again, so I asked him not to go back and stay in my guest room, and he readily agreed.
This night, I stayed up all night. I don't know how long later, I seemed to hear a melodious harmonica sound coming from the direction of the window, I turned my face in a daze, and seemed to see a person sitting on the windowsill, he was sitting on the windowsill with his legs bent, and melodious and melancholy tunes came one after another......
I thought it was a dream, and my hands clutched the sheets, not daring to wake up, let alone sit up to see what was going on.
Later, I really fell asleep in a daze, and in the hazy moment, I felt a cool and soft kiss suddenly on my forehead, and I tried to hook his neck in the dream, but when I did, I pounced......
I woke up from my dream, turned on the bedside lamp, and looked at the empty room, where there was no one to be seen, even the windows were closed...... It seemed like it was just my dream, but the tune was so real.
I sat on the bed with my legs crossed for a while, then shook my head secretly, and said to myself, "Xu Shubei, when did you become so dreamy?"
I lay down again, slowly drifting myself to sleep, and as I fell asleep, I vaguely heard a soft sigh.
When he woke up the next morning, Tai Ziqian was already sitting at the dining table and eating breakfast. Aunt Liu personally fried fried fritters, squeezed soy milk, and cooked two servings of rice porridge and boiled eggs.
"Ziqian, did you hear the harmonica last night?" I asked.
"No, I slept soundly last night, what harmonica sound?" Tai Ziqian asked me while eating.
"Nothing. Auntie, you always sleep awakely, do you hear?" I couldn't help but ask Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu was coaxing the boy, and she shook the boy and said, "No." Shubei, are you dreaming?"
Maybe it was because I ran into him in the middle of the night last night! That's why I had such a dream!
However, the scene in the dream was so real that I couldn't help but reach out and touch my forehead, and absentmindedly finish my breakfast.
A few days later, I saw a bombshell news in the local news that Sheng Yun donated hundreds of thousands of yuan to ten primary schools in the disaster area in the name of her daughter Sheng Xiao.
It seems that he officially recognized Duoduo's identity as his daughter, and at the same time renamed her Sheng Xiao, which is not only very similar to Zaizai's name Sheng Jiu, but also means bamboo.
Is this a representation that his love for them is not equal?
When I saw this news, I didn't have any anger in my heart, some ...... There was only a deep silence, like a wind passing through a deep valley, and the grass and trees were broken, but there was no rest.
The turning point of life is often in an instant, and maturity is also in an instant. I worked hard day and night, and threw myself into my work.
Tai Ziqian became my partner and we signed an agreement that he would take 30% of Noah's shares and not receive a salary. If it succeeds, he will be the second largest shareholder, and if it fails, we will share the responsibility.
I know that he is not short of money, nor is he short of positions, a top student like him, coupled with a prominent background like Tai Feng, he will shine wherever he goes.
But he chose to work with me, and the children raised by rich families are different from ordinary people.
He doesn't care about gains and losses, he doesn't care about status and money, he looks at life from a variety of perspectives, he doesn't have to be trapped in life, he naturally has enough energy to do what he likes...... In addition to helping my company manage the accounts and occasionally sparring with me, he was fascinated by art collecting like his father, digging out his mind to find antiques and works of art, and often taking out all kinds of treasures for me to appreciate, which indirectly cultivated my sentiments and increased my multi-faceted knowledge.
Half a year has passed like this, and in half a year, my Noah has changed from lifeless at the beginning to full of vitality. I listened to Tai Ziqian's suggestion, I became the chairman behind the scenes, and found a professional agent to be the general manager.
I've grown so much in the past six months. Probably because I have been with Tai Feng and Tai Ziqian for a long time, I began to speak and act calmly, and I was no longer as busy as before.
In the past six months, I have accumulated wealth that I could not achieve no matter how hard I worked in the first half of my life. However, I now look at the strings of numbers, and I am very indifferent. I know it's still far from where I want to be, and I know I still need to work hard.
On the day of the arrival of the half-year period, I suddenly received a call from Sheng Yun. The moment I saw his name displayed on the screen of my phone, I was in a trance, and I picked it up with trembling hands.
He was on the other end of the phone and asked me in a calm tone, "Do you have time in the evening?" I think it's time for us to talk. ”
