Chapter 50: The Hundred Days of His Son's Feast
The days passed like this, Ruhan still loved Zhao Gang incorrigibly, but except for working hours, she rarely approached Zhao Gang, worried that he would see through his careful thoughts and make her embarrassed. She just paid attention to him silently, without showing a trace of love.
The weather is getting colder, and in a blink of an eye, it is October, and I heard Wang Lihong say that Zhao Gang's child is about to be born. People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Zhao Gang is in a good mood, and the tone of his conversation with everyone is more gentle, others listen to the warmth in their hearts, but there is a kind of piercing pain in Ruhan's ears.
One day, Zhao Gang finished the business at hand, went to Ruhan's office again, sat on the sofa, and chatted with Wang Lihong.
"Sister, you're going to have a big nephew, are you happy?" Zhao Gang asked with a fluttering eyebrow.
"Big nephew, have you seen it? Is it a boy? Wang Lihong asked rhetorically.
"Of course, the first few months ago, it was the son! You don't know, when the saw him, he cried. I'm also very moved, in more than 20 days, my son will be on the ground! Zhao Gang was extremely excited, and the expression on his face was like something he had never seen before.
"Life flies so fast, you were still a child when you first came, and 6 years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you are going to be a father." Wang Lihong sighed.
"Sister, I have to thank you for this, without you, I wouldn't have known Chunyan, nor could I have such a good son!" Zhao Gang was a little emotional, looked at Wang Lihong and said.
"Don't sensationalize me, our sisters don't need this, you two are better than anything else when you have a good life!" Wang Lihong has always had a gentleman's personality, speaking crisply and neatly, and she always can't stand hearing others say words of thanks.
"Okay, I won't talk about it. When my son is in the daytime, I invite everyone to dinner and get together! Ruhan, you come too! Looking at Ruhan, who was sitting next to the computer without saying a word, Zhao Gang said with a smile.
"Ahh Ruhan was in a trance, and he hadn't come back to his senses yet.
"This girl, writing is stupid. Sister, don't arrange too much work for her, don't tire this girl out! Zhao Gang quipped. Ruhan smiled reluctantly, and could be regarded as responding.
"Alright, I'm leaving! I'll have to take maternity leave in a few days, and I'll be waiting for the confinement! After that, Zhao Gang walked out of the office, and Ruhan's heart drifted away with him.
"Zhao Gang, Zhao Gang, why are you drying your happiness in front of me? How can I feel good? Ruhan thought silently in his heart, looking at his back, his heart became more and more sour. Wang Lihong was in a hurry to deal with an email, and didn't pay attention to her unusual expression.
On October 27th, Zhao Gang's son was born, named Zhao Wenjun, and many colleagues in the unit went to Zhao Gang's house to see the child. Even so, she couldn't help but look at the photo that Wang Lihong took back, it was Zhao Gang's wife who was holding the child, Ruhan saw the woman she envied the most for the first time, her cheekbones were slightly high, her skin was dark yellow, very ordinary, very ordinary, from the appearance, it was not a good match with Zhao Gang, Ruhan thought to herself, this woman must have the advantages that ordinary women do not have, so Zhao Gang married her.
The woman in the photo is smiling happily, the little baby in her arms is half-open, her expression is cute, extremely cute, behind the mother and son, is Zhao Gang who is attached to look at the two of them, the family is happy, so that Ruhan feels extremely desolate, she can't help laughing at herself, how humble her love is, how pitiful, Zhao Gang will never know her love, compared with the happy woman and the lovely child, she is only so insignificant.
Even if there is too much sentimentality in his heart, life always has to pass, Ruhan constantly warns himself that even if he has thousands of likes in his heart, he must treat Zhao Gang with a normal attitude, when Zhao Gang chats with other colleagues, Ruhan rarely participates, and the new girls in the editorial department will sweetly call him Brother Zhao, Ruhan never calls, always calls him leader or Manager Zhao, which invisibly shortens the distance between them.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of January, and Ruhan had been in the editorial department for almost a year. One day, she was having lunch and received a message from Zhao Gang, Ruhan wondered, she had known her for so long, and she hadn't received a message from him! When I opened it, I saw that the mobile phone screen read: "Children for 100 days, hold a banquet in the banquet hall of Shangri-La Hotel, looking forward to your visit".
"How can it be so fast, it's daylight." Ruhan couldn't help but sigh at the passage of time, after a year, he was a year older.
"To go or not to go?" Ruhan asked himself in his heart. Go, when I saw that scene, I must be unhappy, and I will have a calm face, which makes the people around me uncomfortable to watch. If you don't go, even if Zhao Gang is a leader, he is a master who has always known his work, so he can't be reasonable. Ruhan is entangled in every way, and he doesn't know what to do for a while.
After thinking about it, I had to adopt her tried and tested, and the most miraculous and effective method was to toss a coin and obey the arrangement of Providence. Ruhan took out a one-yuan coin and said silently: "The positive side is to go, the negative side is not to go, it must be the negative side!" After saying this, Ruhan closed his eyes and tossed the coin. Hearing the sound of coins falling on the table, Ruhan looked at it with trepidation, and it was exactly the opposite she wanted.
“Oh,MyGod! God help me! Ruhan shouted happily and immediately decided not to go. But calm down, looking at the information in the phone, Ruhan felt sour. Zhao Wenjun has been in the past 100 days, and Zhao Gang has held a banquet in Shangri-La, which shows his joy as a new father. She thought that she was the child's mother, and she, Zhao Gang and the child lived happily together. But every qiē is a fantasy, Zhao Gang doesn't belong to her, she just met someone she really loves at the wrong time, the time is wrong, everything is empty talk.
Ruhan did not participate in the 100-day banquet for some reason, and heard Wang Lihong say that the company's colleagues sat at eight tables, Ruhan did not go, she was very puzzled, in her opinion, Ruhan should participate the most, after all, since entering the editorial department, Zhao Gang has given her a lot of help.
didn't go to the 100-day banquet, others only thought that there was something wrong with Ruhan, and only she knew why. In order to apologize, Ruhan wanted to make up for it, found a pregnancy and baby store, carefully selected a set of small clothes for the baby, and a pair of small socks, ready to hand it over to Zhao Gang as a congratulatory gift to celebrate Zhao Wenjun's 100 days. Zhao Gang happily accepted it, he didn't mind that Ruhan didn't participate in the Hundred Days Banquet.
"Shen Ruhan, you have the potential to be a good wife and mother! The little clothes are very beautiful, and they are very good at choosing! Looking at the baby clothes in his hand, Zhao Gang praised.
Ruhan smiled and didn't answer, the word "good wife and good mother" came out of his mouth, and Ruhan felt particularly prickly.
