Hearing Zhou Shiyan's words of leave, Liu Changqing was a little surprised, but he had learned from Lan Yixian that this child had not asked for leave for many years.

In addition to being sick, she will only ask for leave when she has no choice, but Liu Changqing at this moment doesn't look like she is sick.

His face was ruddy, and his eyes were bright......

Looks healthy!

"Uncle Liu, can you talk?"

Zhou Shiyan said again.

Her words made Liu Changqing react, and when she was about to let her in, she heard Zhou Shiyan say it again.

"No, it's just outside."

"Okay."

Liu Changqing first glanced carefully at Zhou Shiyan, who said this, and then nodded in response.

He already sensed that something wasn't quite right.

After responding to Zhou Shiyan, Liu Changqing said to Chen Dafu on the sofa.

"You sit down by yourself first."

"Got it."

After that, Liu Changqing walked out in indoor slippers, and because he had a key in his pocket, Liu Changqing simply closed the door.

With the movement of the door being closed, Liu Changqing followed Zhou Shiyan and walked a few steps behind him, walked through the elevator, and came to the staircase of the safe passage.

It was only then that Zhou Shiyan stopped.

Turned to look at Liu Changqing.

Because it was a little dark, Liu Changqing stomped his feet, and with the sound of ringing, the light bulb at the staircase also lit up.

After doing this, Liu Changqing looked at her.

The expression is serious.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"After my high school entrance examination, my mom and I are leaving here."

"Well, I know that."

In response to this, Liu Changqing had already learned about this matter when Lan Yixian came over the day before yesterday.

And after Zhou Shiyan heard that Liu Changqing knew, she continued.

"I like Liu Zhiyue."

“……”

Liu Changqing's eyes completely widened at the moment when Zhou Shiyan finished saying this, and he looked at her in disbelief.

I never expected it...... This little girl said it so bluntly!

Yes.

Liu Changqing's surprise was not that Zhou Shiyan liked his son, but that the other party could say it in front of the father of the person he liked.

From the time when he hadn't moved, Liu Changqing had noticed that Zhou Shiyan had a good impression of his children.

To be precise, when she came to tutor her daughter in her studies in the past, when her daughter was doing the math, her eyes began to look at her son from time to time.

If it's just a normal frequency, it would be okay, but during that time, Liu Changqing obviously saw her secretly watching her son more than once.

Whenever Liu Zhiyue looked at her, she would quickly turn her head and interpret the topic her daughter was doing, pretending that nothing had happened.

Knowing is knowing, but Liu Changqing has not pointed it out.

But who would have thought ...... She actually said it to her own face.

Liu Changqing looked at the small girl in front of him, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Do you want to say...... You are still young, you should focus on your studies instead of thinking about these loves?

Don't be funny, it's impossible for Liu Changqing to say this kind of thing.

"But...... I can't like him. ”

During the time that Liu Changqing was stunned, Zhou Shiyan spoke again, and at the same time, the line of sight that was originally looking directly at Liu Changqing also moved away at this moment.

Look down, head slightly down.

"Since I was very young, my dad often beat my mom, and since they divorced, I have very little memory of my father in my mind, so that night, after I asked you for help, I learned that you are Liu Zhiyue's father......"

There was a slight pause in her tone, and Zhou Shiyan seemed to be a little hesitant.

Eventually, he said it.

"When I was in my second year of junior high school, I was the representative of the math class, and when I went to the office to get the test papers, I overheard the conversation of the teachers and knew that you were divorced, so you helped me that day."

With her head raised, Zhou Shiyan looked at Liu Changqing.

He said clearly.

"I just want you to be my father."

“……”

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shiyan said such a thing, and it was also at the moment when she said this sentence that Liu Changqing's memory of last year came to mind.

That time, after Zhou Shiyan brought herself a cup of tea, she didn't walk away immediately, but stood in front of her with some expectation.

Waiting for compliments.

I see...... That's what she thought at the time.

Let me be her father......

Looking at Liu Changqing in front of her, this time Zhou Shiyan's gaze did not have the slightest intention of evasion, and the eyes that were as beautiful as her mother seemed to flash a trace of struggle.

But it soon disappeared again.

"That's why that day, I said move my mom, please let us stay at your house for a while, I know it was hard for you to do that at the time, but I just wanted you and my mom to have more time alone."

“……”

"Everything was as I expected at first, you treated us like guests from the beginning, and then you started looking forward to my mother's lunch, asking me if I needed anything, and giving me some pocket money."

“……”

"But...... After Aunt Ann returned, everything changed. ”

Zhou Shiyan's hands clenched.

And Liu Changqing's gaze at her was even more complicated.

He didn't expect this kid to think so much......

Yes.

Liu Changqing did have a good impression of Lan Yixian during that time.

After he and Feng Qian worked overtime until late at night, when they got home, they saw the woman sleeping on the sofa with her head tilted, looking at her when she woke up, and asked herself if she wanted to eat something.

Liu Changqing was indeed moved by Lan Yixian at that time.

She is gentle and empathetic.

Everything in the house is quite beautifully organized, and when it comes to housework, he doesn't need to think about it at all.

At that time, after picking out An Yuanyao, who was not yet divorced, he thought that he would not have contact with the other party in the future, so at that time, he slowly persuaded himself to accept Lan Yixian.

is not bad in appearance, and he is plump compared to An Yuanyao in figure, he is an expert in housework, and he is also very good at caring about himself and taking care of his children, except for being extremely persistent in some aspects......

It seems that everything is more suitable for life.

But...... After Liu Changqing came to this world, the first woman to have a good impression was ......

An Yuanyao.

It's the one who dares to love and hate, shows a little woman posture to herself, cares about her own opinions, and applauds herself after saying something that the other party doesn't know, and looks full of adoration.

Liu Changqing prefers this feeling.

Maybe it's the underlying machismo at work in his heart, he doesn't like others to refute his opinions, plus ......

Liu Changqing is not an indecisive and abusive person.

He knows very well that if he refuses, he should not leave even the slightest misunderstanding for the other party.

This is also why, he would directly tell An Yuanyao when she was not divorced that she would not meet in the future.

This is also why, after Lan Yixian's mother and daughter moved out of his house, he didn't see each other for a long, long time......

Liu Changqing didn't want to experience too complicated feelings in his feelings, and he didn't want to step on two boats.

In the previous life, the education he experienced since he was a child was to be responsible for his feelings, and his father and mother in the previous life had no quarrels for most of their lives, and they were in harmony.

That kind of marriage......

is what Liu Changqing dreamed of.
