Chapter 29: The Father-in-law's Secret
After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhan Xingchuan still stretched out his hand and gently pushed the door open.
Because Diao Ranran had told Uncle He in advance, the servants had already re-cleaned the room, and it was very clean, although no one had lived in it for many years, there was no dust in every corner, but it looked a little deserted.
It was the first time she walked into this room, and when she thought that Zhan Xingchuan had lived here many years ago, Diao Ranran felt very curious.
She entered the door, looked east and west, and only thought that everything was interesting.
His bedroom is large, with a wall completely open to the study next door, and in the middle of the study and bedroom, there is a separate area, near the balcony, dedicated to fitness, with three-dimensional sandbags on the floor and several pairs of dumbbells of different weights.
Diao Ranran walked over, trying to lift the dumbbell the smallest of them to see how much it weighed.
Zhan Xingchuan saw her thoughts, grabbed her, frowned, and said: "You can't move, what if you get hurt?" At this time, you must be careful, if you can, I hope you can stay in bed more, be obedient, and be obedient for the sake of the baby." ”
She had no choice but to stand there obediently, continuing to look around.
Although I had a hunch that the boy's room would not be very fancy, however, Zhan Xingchuan's bedroom was too monotonous, and even the color of the overall decoration made people feel too calm, and all the qiē were neatly arranged and well-behaved, which made people unconsciously have a feeling of difficulty relaxing.
"There's nothing to see. I'll go check the bathroom, help you adjust the water temperature, take a shower and go to sleep. ”
Zhan Xingchuan once again saw Diao Ranran's thoughts, turned around and walked to the bathroom.
She looked at his back and moved her lips.
How could there be a man's bedroom so neat, it was so neat, and there were very few things, except for the necessary furniture, there were almost no superfluous furnishings, there were no decorative paintings on the walls, no photographs, no ornaments on the table, no picture frames, and not even Transformers or models that boys loved. As far as the eye could see, every corner of the room was bare, and if it weren't for some greenery on the small balcony, she would have felt that this bedroom was completely lifeless.
Soon, Zhan Xingchuan came out and asked Diao Ranran to take a bath.
"I took out the pajamas, the water temperature should not be too high, just take a shower, don't take a bath. If you feel uncomfortable, call me. ”
He told him seriously, obviously very caring words, but because the expression on his face was too strict, it also made people feel cold and emotionless when listening to it.
Diao Ranran reached out to pull his hand, and said softly: "Let's wash together, my hair is so long, it's very tiring to wash, you can help me." ”
Zhan Xingchuan hesitated, but agreed, and carried her to the bathroom.
Although there was a period of grinding of ears and temples, but, considering that she was now pregnant, he didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary, just let her help him with his mouth and hands. Because he was afraid that she would be tired, he didn't finish it long, and then helped her wash her hair, wipe her back, and rinse it quickly himself, and then carried her out.
Half-lying on the bed that was completely unfamiliar, Diao Ranran squinted his eyes, leaned obediently on the head of the bed, and let Zhan Xingchuan help him blow his hair.
He blows patiently, blows his hair half-dry, and then puts the hair dryer away.
"Don't go to sleep right away, it's still a little wet, be careful of headaches. ”
She quickly lifted the quilt, pressed it hard against him, straddled her legs on his lower abdomen, gently traced the shape of Zhan Xingchuan's eyebrows with her fingers, and asked softly, "Can't you just not frown? Are you really so angry today? Just because they came back? Or is it because I insist on staying here for one night?"
He closed his eyes and did not stop Diao Ranran's small movements.
After a long time, just when she thought he wouldn't answer her question, Zhan Xingchuan replied softly, "I just feel tired." ”
His tone was unprecedented, and Diao Ranran was stunned when he heard it.
That tone seemed to be mixed with sadness, despair, low self-esteem, helplessness, etc., and the complex feelings were in it, and she couldn't even distinguish them one by one.
Diao Ranran has never been very good at comforting others, she was silently searching her intestines and scraping her stomach, thinking about those words that could persuade him, but unexpectedly, a few minutes later, she was just about to muster up the courage to open her mouth, but found that the man under her was actually asleep, and he slept soundly, and was still snoring slightly......
A deep sense of frustration swelled up in her heart...... He was still wearing pajamas, sitting on his body with two big legs, he actually fell asleep like this, it seems that a woman is really pregnant, and her attraction to her husband is greatly reduced.
With this sad mood, Diao Ranran climbed down, pulled the quilt, and lay down again.
However, she couldn't sleep at all.
In the morning, I just learned the news that I was indeed pregnant, which was a joy, and in the evening I welcomed my father-in-law who was suffering from cancer. In just one day, after experiencing this kind of emotional joy and sorrow, Diao Ranran felt that he couldn't bear it a little, his mind was very chaotic, and the face of his father-in-law and mother-in-law full of grievances appeared in front of him for a while, and Zhan Xingchuan's angry face appeared for a while.
She opened her eyes wide, but she didn't dare to turn over and over, for fear of waking up Zhan Xingchuan. He also didn't sleep well last night, and when he got up this morning, his eyes were full of red bloodshots, and he looked scary, so Diao Ranran hoped that he could sleep more deeply tonight.
After a while, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she crept up, put on her coat, and tiptoed out.
Most of the people in the mansion were old, so they all rested early, and there was a kind of tranquility in the whole building, except for some shadowy silhouettes reflected in the window edges. Diao Ranran turned around, gently closed the door, and then stood in the corridor for a while, and then walked down the stairs cautiously.
On the second floor lived Zhan Liyang and his wife, as well as her and Zhan Xingchuan, and the servants were all in the room on the first floor, and they all slept at this time.
In the unfamiliar environment, the surroundings were a little scary, Diao Ranran hugged her arms tightly, pulled the coat she was wearing, and hesitated in her heart whether to go back.
However, in the midst of this utter silence, she faintly heard a low sigh.
Diao Ranran suddenly even her hairs stood up, she was so frightened that her scalp was numb, and a cold air seemed to gush out from the soles of her feet, rushing straight to her limbs.
Is it a ghost? Old houses are haunted?
She instinctively wanted to turn around, but she ran back to the second floor to wake up Zhan Xingchuan.
However, at the moment of turning around, Diao Ranran suddenly changed her mind, and the bold factor in her body prevailed, urging her to prick up her ears and listen carefully in the direction of the sound.
Soon, there seemed to be another slight sigh.
The sigh was followed by a few muffled, low, coughing sounds.
Coughing? I've only heard ghosts sigh, but I haven't heard ghosts cough. Diao Ranran reacted suddenly, it was not a ghost, but her father-in-law, Zhan Liyang, because he would cough a few times from time to time...
It's strange that in the middle of the night, he, a patient, doesn't go to bed early, what does he do running down alone? Is it because he can't sleep?
She was suddenly curious.
Deliberately putting her steps so light that she couldn't be lighter, Diao Ranran walked down the stairs, standing at the top of the stairs, she simply distinguished, and found that Zhan Liyang should be standing not far away.
Realizing what that room was for, she was slightly stunned.
If memory serves, last time, Zhan Xingchuan locked that damn Matthew in that room.
Originally, I heard Kong Miaomiao say that the room was sealed, and it had been many years, and no one dared to open it lightly, because Zhan Xingchuan did not allow it.
After Matthew was let go, it was naturally empty, and he made it extremely dirty inside, and it took several buckets of disinfectant for the servants to clean it thoroughly, and it has been like that ever since, and no one is willing to move in, or even approach.
Diao Ranran approached and was sure that the person was Zhan Liyang, and he could see it by looking at his figure.
He was dressed in pajamas, slightly hunched, and stood at the door of the room, as if he had no intention of going in.
Diao Ranran stood not far away, hesitated, but decided to speak up.
She coughed lowly, acting as a reminder, so as not to startle the Zhan Liyang who was standing there in a distracted manner.
Sure enough, when he heard the voice, Zhan Liyang was startled and immediately turned around.
"Daddy, haven't you rested? Do you need something? I'll get it for you. ”
Diao Ranran tried her best to make her voice sound natural, otherwise, both of them might feel embarrassed.
After a brief period of surprise, Zhan Liyang's expression no longer looked so nervous, he shook his head, covered his mouth with his hand and replied, "It's okay, I'll go down and take a turn." Why did Ran Ran come down, don't catch a cold. ”
She was a little embarrassed, and quickly lied casually, saying that she felt thirsty and came down to drink water.
"Yukikawa has been so tired lately, he has fallen asleep, so I didn't call him. ”
She explained in a whisper, and Zhan Liyang nodded, not saying anything more.
Although it did not arouse her father-in-law's suspicion, for Diao Ranran, at this moment, what she was most curious about was why Zhan Liyang was standing in front of the small room where Yu Simei's mother and daughter had lived, and it could be seen that he had been standing here for a short time, and he was still sighing from time to time.
What was he thinking? Was he thinking about the woman and her daughter? You know, his son, and the woman's daughter, but something big had happened.
In addition, Diao Ranran remembered that after the rape incident came out, it was Zhan Liyang and Wang Jingshu who came forward to solve it. Did the two of them say something to Yu Youwei and what did they do, so that she would not be held accountable, say goodbye without saying goodbye, and leave for several years?
