Chapter 166: Pretending Not to Care
People say that if I am stupid for three years when I am pregnant, I will suffer from it, and I will be upgraded to become a mother, and this memory will not be good.
I forgot about the ten-o'clock interview, but Liao Mingkai came to me.
"Mr. Shen, your friend's niece is here, do you want to go to the interview in person?"
I don't have time to watch that girl perform, "She just graduated and has no experience, you just look at the arrangement, you don't need to give special treatment, just follow the rules." ”
Liao Mingkai probably saw that I was not willing, and said empathetically: "Okay, then I'll do it myself." ”
After he went out, I turned on my phone and flipped out Lu Zhoucheng's number.
He provoked people, and he should be allowed to solve them by himself, so why should I deal with the aftermath?
I hung up before the phone was dialed, and after thinking about it, I still handed it over to Liao Mingkai, that uncle still don't mess with it, his ability to grind people is more powerful than his daughter.
In a blink of an eye, the morning passed, and I forgot about Lin Shiyin, and I only remembered it when I had lunch at lunch.
I called Liao Mingkai and asked him how the interview results were, and what did this kid say to me, "Mr. Shen, rest assured, you are satisfied." ”
I didn't feel moved, could it be that Assistant Liao got my mind and sent the girl away?
If that's the case, then I'll have to thank him.
In the afternoon, Zhu Jing called me and asked me to take the children out to play on the weekend, of course I have no problem with this.
Since I came back, I haven't been together with Zhu Jing, one is because I am busy with work, and the other is that it is inconvenient to take my children.
It's time for such a big child to make a fuss, and all the energy is focused on the child, how can there be time to catch up?
Zhu Jing said that she had been holding back her stomach for a long time and wanted to talk to me, but it was estimated that she had held it for too long, and when she had time to speak, she didn't know what to say.
She guessed she was really idle, and she talked to me a lot on the phone, and she said whatever she wanted, which I felt a little chaotic when I heard it.
But Miss Zhu doesn't care about this, just talk about her, I put the phone aside, and then do my own thing.
Later, when I heard her mention Su Qi, my hand holding the pen paused.
"Have you seen her?"
"I've seen it! Not only me, but everyone in our company has seen it, that is, at the annual meeting last year, she suddenly appeared, and gave your Lao Lu a large bouquet of roses, and sensationalized in front of the whole company, the two eyes have never left your Lao Lu, I think if it weren't for her estimated acting career, she would have to kiss directly. ”
The pen drew a horizontal bar on the notebook, and I came back to my senses, and the image in my mind automatically flew away.
"She did a good job of keeping secrets before, no one knew, but after that time, everyone decided that she and the boss were a couple, but they couldn't make it public because of their work!"
"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing? Are you listening? ”
"Hmm."
"Huh?!"
Zhu Jing seemed surprised by my reaction, "I said so much, you just give me a 'huh'?" Did you hear me say? ”
"I hear you."
I tore up the bad page and rewrote it, trying not to let her hear the strange tone, "Jingjing, I still have something to do here, let's talk about it when we meet!" ”
casually found an excuse to hang up the phone, pretending that he didn't care, but I'm alone here, what can I pretend to be able to deceive my heart?
Shet!
After another scrapped page, I threw the pen on the table and gently covered my face.
I told myself not to think that I had nothing to do with that person anymore, and that even if he was the father of the child, it wouldn't change anything.
He's a familiar stranger to me at best, yes, that's it!
Because of Zhu Jing's words, I was distracted all afternoon, and this state lasted until the evening, the child had already slept, but I had never been sleepy.
Dingding.
In the dead of night, the slightest movement is very clear, it is a text message prompt tone.
I took my phone and saw what was on the lock screen.
[Did you sleep?] 】
A few words were typed and deleted, repeated several times, and finally it was not sent, I gritted my teeth and put the phone back, as if I had already slept!
After a while, he sent another message.
[Remember that day at the restaurant?] Until I saw you in the hospital, I thought I was dreaming, I thought you would never come back for the rest of your life. 】
[I have never been grateful to anyone in my life, but I am very grateful to you, Xiaoqing, thank you for giving me such a good pair of children, so that I can wake up with a smile even from a dream. 】
[Can you send me a few pictures of the children, I want to see them.] 】
When I saw this, the corners of my eyes were wet.
I couldn't sleep in the first place, and I can't sleep even more now.
When I got up to drink water, I stood in front of the window and saw the stars and fires in the darkness, and there seemed to be someone downstairs.
It was too dark to see clearly, and only a vague figure could be seen.
Could it be him?
I asked in my mind.
Then he shook his head, no way, how could he be here so late?
I knew it was impossible, but I still put on my clothes and went downstairs.
I don't know what I'm expecting.
Maybe it's because I can't sleep, or maybe I just want to die.
One of the lights outside the elevator was broken, and only one was left to hold on.
In the faint light, I saw the cars parked outside, almost blending into the night.
Someone leaned on the car and smoked a cigarette, looking up at the starry sky with an uncertain expression.
Perhaps, he is not looking at the starry sky.
I saw that the eyes flashed in the dark, and then I lowered my head and fiddled with my phone.
The pocket shook a little, and I took it out to see, "Haven't you slept yet?" 】
[Do you want to ask how I know?] Tell you, I have superpowers, so you'd better be careful with me, I'll keep an eye on you. 】
"Your superpower is voyeurism?"
The sudden sound startled the man who was busy typing, and the cigarette fell from his mouth.
Seeing his reaction, I felt a lot more balanced in my heart, and walked over with my mobile phone, "I don't sleep in the middle of the night and run to stalk, this is your superpower?" ”
Lu Zhoucheng ignored my taunts, he just looked at me, although it was night, I still saw the tiredness on his face.
I remembered the sound of a car I heard in my half-dream, and I had a bold guess.
He shouldn't be here every night, right?
Seeing my appearance, Lu Zhoucheng didn't seem to react.
His body slowly left the body, and then as I walked in front of me, he reached out and pulled me into his arms, and his voice was faint, like the midnight wind.
"Why didn't you reply to my message if you didn't sleep?"
I pushed him away, "What are you doing here at such a late hour?" ”
"I can't sleep, I want to come and see you."
Lu Zhoucheng lowered his eyes and looked at me, then took my hand and put it on his chest, "Even if you can't see it, if you get closer, you can feel at ease, at least make sure you children!" ”
I remembered that when I decided to get married, he also stayed downstairs all night, and he said that he was afraid that I would run away.
"Now that I see it, go back to sleep!" I said to him.
Lu Zhou admitted that he really looked at me for a while, and then pulled me into his arms again, rubbing his nose on my face, "Xiaoqing, I want to kiss you." ”
"I refuse."
"Rejection is invalid."
He still kissed me, and I, without refusal.
By the time it was over, my hands had climbed on his back, leaning into his arms to calm my heartbeat.
Lu Zhoucheng didn't get much better, his chin rested against the top of my head, and his chest shook gently when he smiled, "I didn't come in vain tonight." ”
We hugged like this for a while, and he asked me, "If you're not sleepy, why don't you talk to me for a while?" ”
Then we got in the car, although I didn't know what to talk to him.
Lu Zhoucheng didn't really want to chat with me, he was just bored here alone and wanted to be my companion.
He said, "Xiaoqing, you hit me." ”
I looked at him coldly, "Looking for a fight in the middle of the night?" ”
Lu Zhoucheng smiled and grabbed my hand, "It just doesn't feel real, it's like a dream, and I can't help but want to confirm it." ”
I think he probably just learned about the existence of children, and the novelty of being a new father has not yet passed.
Just like when I had just given birth, I suddenly opened my eyes to see if the baby was still there.
Seeing that I was only wearing pajamas, Lu Zhoucheng closed the windows and turned on the air conditioner.
"Do you want to listen to songs?"
I shook my head and pulled my hand out, "I have to go to work tomorrow." ”
"Just listen to one song."
Lu Zhoucheng quickly inserted the disc, but as soon as the melody came out, I turned it off, "I'm going up, you should go back early." ”
"Wait a minute!"
Lu Zhoucheng grabbed me, "Did you hear the song I sang in the bar that day?" ”
I didn't speak, and he said with certainty, "I'm drunk, but I don't have amnesia, I know you heard it." ”
Not only did I hear it, but I was also shocked.
That's why when I heard the melody just now, I was so anxious to turn it off.
Thinking about that night, my mood became more and more uneasy.
Lu Zhoucheng picked up my hand, put it on his lips and kissed it, "Xiaoqing, give me another chance and let me take care of you and the child, okay?" ”
I turned my head to look at him, "What about Su Qi?" ”
As soon as these words came out, I clearly saw a flash of pain in Lu Zhoucheng's eyes, "I'll find a time to make it clear to her." ”
For the sake of the child, he is really open-minded, and he doesn't even want the woman he loves, should I say that he is great?
Looking at his expectant expression, I said, "It's not impossible, as long as you promise me a few conditions." ”
"You say."
"First, join the Shen family, you also know that my parents are only my daughter, so I hope that the child can have my surname, so I can only wronged you to be the son-in-law of the Shen family."
It is impossible for any man with a little ability to agree to join the family, and I think Lu Zhoucheng will be no exception.
"Second, you also know that I have always been haunted by the events of the past, every time I see your mother, I will think of my parents, if you want to get back together with me, then cut off the relationship with your parents."
"Shen Qing !!"
Even if he is rich, he has to cut off relations with the Lu family, how can he agree to such a condition for a person like Lu Zhoucheng?
