Chapter 165: A family of three
Zhou Yi talked about this, Lin Qingrou recalled, because she did hear Song Miao, a foodie, say that she had come to Xiushan for so many days, and there were still many things she wanted to eat that she hadn't tried. So, while recalling what Song Miao told her before, she relayed it to Zhou Yi.
"Actually, I can't let you break the bank, after all, I invited you to eat with me in the evening, and I should prepare the ingredients, but I don't know where to buy these things." Lin Qingrou said.
Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Be polite to me, you don't need to go out of your way to buy it, I have a lot of seafood ready at home." When I'm done in the afternoon, I'll go home and prepare, and when the time comes, I'll take it to you, and I'll cook Xiushan's special dishes for you. ”
Lin Qingrou knew that Zhou Yi had always been enthusiastic about others, and no matter how much she refused, she couldn't refute his kindness, so she had to stop being polite as before, thinking that she would find another opportunity to invite him back in the future.
The two were discussing how to entertain Song Miao and Jiang He at night, but at this time, Du Zeming's car stopped in front of them.
Lin Qingrou and Zhou Yi both frowned, not knowing what trouble this President Du Da wanted to come to this time.
Du Zeming has always been a rich boy who can't afford to lose, and it is estimated that he is still a little angry about what happened that night, after all, it was still too embarrassing to be thrown to the ground by Zhou Yi, not to mention that Lian Nuo and two other subordinates saw it at that time, so they thought that they would come to find fault again today.
Zhou Yi was about to step forward, but was stopped by Lin Qingrou reaching out. Du Zeming got out of the car and did not walk directly towards Lin Qingrou, but walked to the back seat of the car and opened the door, and at this time, a small child inside immediately rushed out and ran towards Lin Qingrou quickly.
This child is Du Lin, Lin Qingrou's son who thinks about it day and night, and thinks about it all the time. Lin Qingrou saw that Du Lin was running towards her, so she walked up excitedly and quickly, and the mother and son hugged each other, looking extremely happy.
Zhou Yi was a little stunned for a while when he saw such a scene. Because as Du Zeming slowly walked to Lin Qingrou's mother and son, this looked like a warm scene of a family of three on the surface.
Du Zeming glanced at Zhou Yi a few times, intentionally or unintentionally, and then ignored him. Zhou Yi looked a little embarrassed at this time, although he came back to his senses, he didn't know what to do next.
"Mommy, Mommy, Linlin misses you so much." Du Lin sucked into Lin Qingrou's arms with a milky voice and was coquettish.
At this time, Du Zeming came to Lin Qingrou's side and said, "Linlin has always wanted to go to the zoo before, although I promised him but didn't do it. I brought him here today to fulfill his wish, and he said that he wanted to see Mommy, so I brought him to you. ”
"If you still have the appearance of being a mother, please take on the responsibility of being Linlin's mother and accompany him to visit the aquarium today. You haven't taken good care of him for so long, and I don't think you're qualified to refuse this request, right? ”
"I want to go to the aquarium with my mom and dad, I want to go to the aquarium with my mommy and dad." Du Lin looked at Lin Qingrou with pleading eyes.
As a mother, how can she bear to refuse such a request from her son. Lin Qingrou has always felt that she owes something to Du Lin, so she often cries silently in the middle of the night when she is alone, she regrets that Du Lin is still so young and must learn to live without her mother by her side at all times, she feels that she is sometimes a very ruthless mother.
Lin Qingrou nodded and immediately agreed. She raised her head and motioned to Du Zeming to wait for herself, then got up and walked back.
"I want to accompany my son to the aquarium today, I don't know if I can trouble you with the rest of the work here?" Lin Qingrou gestured to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi nodded, he would naturally agree to any of Lin Qingrou's requests, not to mention Lin Qingrou's true feelings when he reunited with his son just now, Zhou Yi saw it all in his eyes, and he was very able to understand how important his son Du Lin was to Lin Qingrou.
"Don't worry, Qingrou, I will properly complete the rest of the finishing work with other colleagues, you haven't been with your son for a long time, today is just the opportunity to enjoy the precious time with your child." Zhou Yi said softly.
Lin Qingrou expressed her gratitude to Zhou Yi with great gratitude, and then returned to find Du Lin.
Du Lin took Lin Qingrou's hand and cheered as he walked Lin Qingrou to the position of the car.
"Okay, Linlin can go to the aquarium, Linlin is so happy. Barbie, Mommy, hooray! Long live Barbie and Mommy! ”
Du Zeming saw that Lin Qingrou hugged Du Lin into the car, and he was not in a hurry to go back to the car, but walked straight towards Zhou Yi.
"What do you want to say?" Zhou Yi said vigilantly.
Du Zeming sneered and replied lightly: "It's nothing, I just want to remind you that you are just a humble and ignorant outsider, you also saw it just now, the connection between me and Lin Qingrou can never be severed, if you are a smart person, you will keep me away." ”
Zhou Yi understood that Du Zeming deliberately came to declare his sovereignty this time through the mother-son affection between his son Du Lin and Lin Qingrou.
He is indeed right, no matter how much Lin Qingrou hates Du Zeming and how she avoids it, she will always be at ease with her biological son.
As long as Du Lin is still in the Du family and under Du Zeming's guardianship, then Lin Qingrou will never be able to get real freedom, thinking of these Zhou Yi feels extremely sad and even desperate.
"Maybe you're right, as long as Du Lin is maintained between you, it is impossible for you and Qingrou to completely break off contact. But I don't see what you have to do with their mother and son. I don't know if you're a dutiful father, but I'm pretty sure you're not a good and gentle husband. Zhou Yi said indignantly.
Du Zeming's eyes were cold at this time, and he only heard him say coldly: "You kid had better speak carefully to me, don't forget, I can teach you a lesson at any time and let you know what pain is." ”
Not to be outdone, Zhou Yi sneered: "That's good, I want to see what other means President Du Da has, if you want to do it, I can accompany you at any time." ”
Du Zeming sneered a few times and said contemptuously: "I don't always need to do it myself, and it's not always that I can maintain good patience and mood. ”
After Du Zeming finished speaking, he walked back, and then drove Lin Qingrou's mother and son into the distance, leaving Zhou Yi standing alone in place, with an inexplicable anger in his heart, but he couldn't vent it.
"Let's go to the aquarium on the west side, and I already bought tickets in advance before I came." Du Zeming said while driving the car.
Not long after, the car was parked in the parking lot in front of the aquarium. Du Zeming took out three tickets for the aquarium from his suit pocket, took Du Lin's hand with one hand, and walked towards the ticket gate.
Du Lin happily grabbed Du Zeming's hand with his left hand, and shook Lin Qingrou's hand with his right hand, he walked excitedly among his parents, jumping and jumping, looking particularly naughty and cute.
"Sir, look at how happy your family of three is, how about taking a group photo together?" A vendor soliciting business at the entrance of the aquarium walked up to them and said.
Du Zeming didn't intend to take care of the vendor, so he waved his hand and signaled that they should enter the aquarium immediately.
However, this peddler is obviously not so easy to dismiss. He pointed to a large plastic board hanging from his chest, which was full of sample photographs, one of which was a large seashell spraying water upwards in the background.
This interesting picture immediately attracted Du Lin.
Du Lin pointed to the shell on the photo and said coquettishly: "Barbie, Barbie, you see there is a big shell on it!" ”
Seeing that his son seemed to be particularly fond of the shell, Du Zeming asked the vendor where he had taken it.
As soon as the hawker saw that the business was in full swing, he enthusiastically invited Du Zeming's family of three to a square not far from the entrance of the aquarium, only to see a huge shell sculpture spraying water into the air on the edge of the square.
When Du Lin saw the big shell that he could only see in the photo just now, he immediately cheered, not to mention how happy he was, he kept jumping and jumping there, did he point to the big shell and laugh.
Every two minutes, the large shell sculpture shoots out a slender column of water upwards. Every time the water column was sprayed out, Du Lin was so excited that he danced.
When the peddler saw this, he took the opportunity to propose: "Look, Mr. and Mrs., when this sculpture is sprayed with water for a while, I will take a few pictures of your family of three, see how happy your family of three is, Mr. is tall and handsome, his wife is beautiful and moving, and the children are healthy and lively, how good it is to take a family photo in this background!" ”
Du Zeming saw that Du Lin liked this big shell sculpture very much, and he was reluctant to leave, and he really couldn't find a reason to refuse when he heard the hawker's suggestion, so he set his eyes on Lin Qingrou and asked for her opinion.
Lin Qingrou also thinks this is a good suggestion, at least now Du Lin is very happy, he deserves to have such a photo of the whole family, no matter whether this family can still be complete in the future, but at least there should be something worth remembering.
She can't remember the last time the three of them went out together without burden, and the last time the three of them took a group photo? Lin Qingrou really can't remember.
She nodded her head and agreed, and the vendor immediately led them to a suitable place in front of the large shell sculpture as if they were snakes, and quickly fiddled with their camera equipment.
