Chapter 55: It's My Responsibility to Take Care of Her
The night is dark, the moon is shining, and the road is a little deserted, and the occasional car passes by at a fast speed, and in the blink of an eye only the tail lights remain.
On the side of the road, under the street lamp, Zhao Zhouhan's car was parked for a long time, but the door was never unlocked, and Chi Xiaoye couldn't get out.
It stopped for a long time, and it was so long that it was noticed by the traffic police on the night patrol and came to inquire about the situation.
"Is something wrong? How can we help? ”
Zhao Zhouhan sat back in the cab, fastened his seat belt, turned his head and asked her, "This point, this place, I can't let you get out of the car alone, you either follow me, or I will hand you over to the police, at least to ensure your safety, how to choose?" ”
"......" Chi Xiaoye was speechless, and getting off halfway also requires reason.
Before she could reply, Zhao Zhouhan dropped the window and said to the traffic police outside: "It's okay, I'm looking for something, thank you." ”
His face, the traffic police are familiar, the first time I saw a real person, the traffic police were a little excited, "You are ...... Zhao ......"
"Stay safe at night, it's hard work." Zhao Zhouhan nodded, and quickly stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
The traffic police immediately took off their gloves, gave a military salute respectfully, and watched them.
It was already the second half of the night, sitting in the car, Chi Xiaoye unconsciously closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Zhao Zhouhan drove all the way into the community, parked, turned his head, looked at her sleeping side face, and snored evenly, he couldn't bear to wake her up.
Obviously, the relationship between them is developing in a good direction, and it is clear that they are getting along more and more smoothly, and they can be very good, but why is it suddenly like this?
Chi Xiaoye's crooked head slowly hung down, and Zhao Zhouhan reached over and supported her face with his entire palm.
Hey, I slept comfortably, and my saliva flowed out, and I touched his hand.
Zhao Zhouhan took two tissues with his free hand and carefully wiped her saliva.
Suddenly, Chi Xiaoye opened his eyes, saw him, opened his hand vigilantly, and subconsciously shrank to the side.
Zhao Zhouhan's heart, which was finally calmed down, was pumped again, and the vigilance and hesitation in her eyes made him particularly uncomfortable.
The tissue in his hand was wiped empty, and he pretended to be calm and wiped his hand.
Chi Xiaoye wiped the saliva on the back of her hands, her hands were hot with embarrassment, coupled with the sleepiness and exhaustion, she completely lost the strength to quarrel.
"Can you calm down and listen to me?"
Chi Xiaoye sat weakly, her eyes were a little confused, this sudden awakening did not drive away her sleepiness, but made her feel uncomfortable all over, dizzy, numb legs, sore neck, and uncomfortable.
Seeing that she didn't resist hysterically, Zhao Zhouhan asked tentatively with the greatest patience: "It's too late today, you're injured again, why don't you go home with me...... If there is anything to say, we will talk about it tomorrow morning. ”
"Don't coax me, I'm not a three-year-old."
"You don't want to toast or eat, you still have your military training results in my hands."
"You ......" Chi Xiaoye glared at him in disbelief, "Zhao Zhouhan, you villain!" ”
He tried his best to speak in the most peaceful tone, try not to have any subjective consciousness, and said impartially: "I'm just stating the facts, don't make a child's temper, I'm your chief instructor so late, it's impossible to throw you anywhere, you think about the victim girl, almost ruined her life." ”
Chi Xiaoye secretly thought, therefore, he was worried about the safety of his students as the chief instructor, not his wife as a husband.
"If you still want to continue to make trouble, I'll accompany you, anyway, tomorrow and Sunday, there's nothing to do."
"Is that me trying to make trouble?"
Chi Xiaoye's sudden rhetorical question made the atmosphere between the two awkward again, mixed with a hint of inexplicability, isn't this just two couples with pimples in their hearts making an awkward relationship? !
Chi Xiaoye really couldn't bear the sleepiness, she yawned and her eyes were full of tears, "Forget it, I'm too sleepy, can you stop your mother-in-law and mother from chattering?" ”
"I ......"
"Shut up!"
...... "This damn kid has learned to command me?!"
Chi Xiaoye got out of the car by herself, her eyes were almost open, she rubbed her eyes as she walked, her legs were still a little numb, and a cool breeze from the basement didn't know where to blow, which made her shiver cold, and her body shook a few times.
Zhao Zhouhan followed, wanting to help her.
As soon as she waved her hand, she opened him, who wants you to help? Grandma can go on her own!
——
The next day, when the sky was bright, Zhao Zhouhan woke up, to be precise, he just squinted and didn't sleep all night.
"Hey, Mom, did I wake you up?"
"No, I just woke up, what's wrong son, you never called me so early."
"Where's Dad?"
"Went out to exercise, what's the matter?"
"Well, there's something going on, I'd like to ask you out to talk."
"Get out? Where to? Is there anything you can't talk about on the phone, or at home? ”
"Regarding Chi Xiaoye, I want to talk to you about my opinion."
Zhou Chengcheng heard his son's attention, and naturally he didn't dare to be negligent, "Nine o'clock, fresh teahouse." ”
"Okay, I'll see you later."
At nine o'clock, in the small private room of the teahouse, Zhou Chengcheng and Zhao Zhouhan's mother and son sat face to face on the tea table, both of them had serious expressions and did not smile, those who knew knew that they were mother and son, and those who didn't know thought they were enemies.
The teahouse is open 24 hours a day, but this time of the morning is the most deserted time, and few people come over to enjoy tea and chat at this time.
Zhou Chengcheng asked straight to the point: "What, she put forward the conditions?" ”
"On what terms?"
"Help you cover up the conditions, that matter is very important, she stood up and admitted that it was her, helped you block a lot of gossip, and also helped our Zhao family save its reputation, did she make conditions with you? Say, I can take it, a million? Or ten million? ”
"Mom, what are you thinking?"
"Then why did you suddenly ask me out to talk? Are you afraid that if you say it at home, your dad and grandma will satisfy her twice or three times? They were brainwashed by her, and when she made a bodhisattva offering, they were willing to give her as much property as they wanted. ”
Zhao Zhouhan was really speechless, and said directly: "She didn't help me cover up, but, the girl that night, it was her." ”
"Hehe, do you think I'm going to believe it? How can there be such a coincidence in this world? ”
"There really is, surveillance, fingerprints, DNA, all compared, it's her."
“……”
"But that's second, not the point of today, the point I want to say is, Mom, I want to manage this relationship well, you don't always have an opinion on her."
Zhou Chengcheng blurted out, "Son, what about Su Qingyu?" If I'm not mistaken, she'll be back next month. ”
"Mom, I've already let it go."
"I used to let you go on a blind date, and you said that you couldn't accept others in your heart, didn't you let go of Su Qingyu?"
"That's a prevarication, if I really can't let it go, my father won't succeed in forcing me to marry Chi Xiaoye."
"You ......"
"Mom, what I'm saying now is true, no matter what way I look at it, I have a responsibility for her, she has no father or mother, only Grandpa Chi, Grandpa Chi is also old, I can't resist for a few years, I have the responsibility to take care of her."
