Chapter 35: Commitment
After work the next day, Zhou Jing went to the mall, carefully selected in the toy store, and picked a very beautiful Barbie doll for Jingjing, as a gift for the little one.
The young saleswoman hurriedly greeted her, enthusiastically introduced, Zhou Jing after some comparison, he chose a platinum necklace with a heart-shaped pendant, paid for it, and carefully put it into the jacket pocket, this platinum necklace was naturally given to Li Jiani.
Half an hour later, he came to the door of Qin Xiaoqian's house, knocked on the door gently, and soon, the door was pushed open, and Jingjing, who was wearing a white dress, leaned out and said with a smile: "Hello Uncle Zhou, mom is making food in the kitchen!" β
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, handed over the Barbie doll, and said softly: "Jingjing, this is a gift from your uncle, do you like it?" β
The little guy's eyes lit up, he stretched out his white and tender fingers, put them to his lips, and smiled timidly: "Uncle Zhou, this doll is really beautiful, I like it very much!" β
"Then take it!" Zhou Jing smiled, put the Barbie doll in her arms, entered the house, changed into slippers, took Jingjing's little hand, came to the kitchen door, looked over, but saw Qin Xiaoqian waving a shovel in her hand and stir-frying.
She wears a beige sleeveless shirt with a gray knee-length skirt with an extremely narrow hem that sets off her beautiful waist. The hip curve, and under the short skirt, is a pair of snow-white slender legs, soft lines, extending to the rounded ankles, slender toes, and charming.
Zhou Jing's heart trembled slightly, and he hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said with a smile: "Leader, I'm here." β
Qin Xiaoqian smiled back, waved the shovel in her hand lightly, and said softly: "Xiaojing, you go to the living room to sit down first, Wuyang has a meeting, and he may come back late." β
"Okay, Sister Qin, you get busy first." Zhou Jing smiled, returned to the sofa and sat down, picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, turned on the TV, broadcast the station casually, and turned to Qingyang TV, but saw that in the picture, Deputy Mayor Wang Yannian was speaking, so he put down the remote control and watched it seriously.
At this time, Jingjing jumped up and ran over, tilted her head and said, "Uncle Zhou, do you like to play the piano?" β
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't like it." β
Jingjing sighed, like a little adult, spread her hands and said, "I don't like it either, but Mom and Dad have to force others to learn the piano, it's really painful!" β
Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, then touched her little head, and said softly: "Jingjing, uncle doesn't like to play the piano, that's because uncle is too stupid and can't learn well, you are different." β
Jingjing sat on the sofa and said angrily: "It's the same, I'm also stupid, people just don't want to learn!" β
Zhou Jing turned off the TV, took the little guy's white and tender little hand, and said softly: "Jingjing, your fingers are thin and long, very flexible, you should learn the piano well, and become a pianist in the future and perform all over the country, how good it would be." β
Jingjing pursed her lips and said stupidly: "Uncle Zhou, I don't want to be a pianist, I want to be a kindergarten teacher, and I play with the children every day." β
Zhou Jing smiled and said seductively: "It's good to be a teacher, but you also have to learn the piano, and if you learn to play the piano, the children will like you more." β
Jingjing's eyes widened and she said curiously, "Is it true?" β
Zhou Jing nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, Uncle Zhou never deceives children. β
Jingjing sighed and said with a sad face: "Alas, then let's learn, there's really no way!" β
Zhou Jing smiled dumbly, stretched out his fingers, scraped the bridge of her delicate nose, and said softly: "Little birthday star, you have a good time today, be happy." β
Jingjing grinned, raised her little face, and said expectantly: "Uncle Zhou, can you play a game of hide and seek with me?" β
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Okay." β
"Uncle Zhou, you close your eyes first." Jingjing ran out of the smoke, and after a while, she shouted: "Begin!" β
Zhou Jing smiled, walked around the living room, walked into a bedroom next to him, opened the curtains, and pulled out the little guy who was hiding behind and screaming loudly.
"No, it's fun to be blindfolded!" Jingjing was in high spirits, so she opened the wardrobe, took out a scarf from it, handed it to Zhou Jing, and watched him wrap his head around before running out with cheers.
Zhou Jing was very cooperative, he closed his eyes and touched out, the two of them circled in the living room, and the little guy played crazy, running around Zhou Jing, making cheerful cries from time to time.
Qin Xiaoqian prepared a table of meals, put the cake on the table, and returned to the living room, sat on the sofa, and looked at the two with a smile.
After more than ten minutes, Jingjing was a little tired from playing, so she rushed over, threw herself into her arms, and shouted loudly: "Mom, Mom, it's so late, why hasn't Dad come back?" β
Qin Xiaoqian smiled and said softly: "Baby, Dad is still in a meeting, wait a minute." β
Jingjing said 'oh', climbed onto her knees, and whispered, "Mom, I like Uncle Zhou, it's fun to play with him!" β
Qin Xiaoqian pinched her daughter's delicate face, pursed her lips and said, "I know, you little naughty bag." β
Zhou Jing took off the scarf, returned to the sofa and sat down, chatting with Qin Xiaoqian, and waited for another half an hour before Zhang Wuyang pushed the door in, he looked a little haggard and preoccupied.
Qin Xiaoqian walked over, helped him take off his coat, hung it on the hanger, and said gently: "Wuyang, what will it be, why did you drive so late?" β
Zhang Wuyang smiled faintly and said softly: "There was a murder in the city last night, using a military pistol, and it required a time limit to solve the case, the task is very heavy, I have to go over after eating." β
Qin Xiaoqian was a little dissatisfied, frowned and said, "You, your mind is all in the unit, you really don't take our mother and mother to heart." β
Zhang Wuyang sighed helplessly, picked up his daughter again, stretched out his hand and beckoned: "Xiaojing, come here, let's have a few drinks." β
Several people sat at the dining table, blew out the candles together, and sang happy songs, coaxing the little princess-like Jingjing to be extremely happy.
After the meal, Zhou Jing got up to say goodbye, and Zhang Wuyang hurriedly said: "Xiaojing, I'll send you, by the way, I have something to discuss." β
Zhou Jingjing nodded, went downstairs with him, the two got into the police car, Zhang Wuyang looked around, started the car, and drove the police car away from the community, along the way, his lips were closed, he didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something sad.
He drove the car until he was downstairs at Zhou Jing's house, and then he stopped the car, sighed, and said softly: "Xiaojing, my brother has something to ask you." β
Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Team Zhang, the friendship between us, there is no need to say polite words, just mention something." β
Zhang Wuyang nodded, as if he had finally made up his mind, took a thick oilcloth bag from the side, patted it gently, and said in a low voice: "The things in here are very important, please help me keep them, don't lose them." β
Zhou Jing's heart froze, knowing that the matter was not trivial, so he said in surprise: "Team Zhang, what's the situation?" β
Zhang Wuyang lit a cigarette, frowned and took a few puffs, and said with a solemn face: "Xiaojing, don't ask more, don't open it to see, if one day, I am in trouble, these things may be able to help." β
Zhou Jingjing nodded, didn't ask any more, took the oilcloth bag, pushed the door and jumped out of the car, he stood on the side of the road, watched Zhang Wuyang drive away, then returned upstairs, hurriedly entered the bedroom, put the oilcloth bag into the shoe box, and hid it in the upper right corner of the wardrobe.
He went to the bathroom to take a shower, and as soon as he came out, the phone in the living room rang, Zhou Jing walked over to pick up the phone, and said, 'Hey', but he heard a giggling sound from there, which made his heart tremble again, so he lowered his voice and said: "Jiani, has the old man's anger disappeared?" β
Li Jiani blushed, shook her head lightly and said, "No, you've been scolding me for two days." β
When Zhou Jing heard this, he laughed hesitantly and whispered: "Jiani, it's all my fault, this time I was too careless." β
"It's good to know!" Li Jiani smiled coquettishly, touched her hot cheeks, and said ashamedly: "Why, after stealing once, even my sister refused to scream?" β
Zhou Jing was itchy in his heart, and couldn't help but laugh: "Of course, in the future, the three words 'Sister Jiani' can no longer be called, just call you 'little hooves'!" β
Li Jiani took a sip and said wisely: "Little villain, you are still talking cool things, you are just lucky, you escaped very quickly, otherwise, if you are caught by your father, you will have to break a leg!" β
Zhou Jing laughed, touched his nose and said, "I can't see it, Lord Taishan is willing to be ruthless and beat his future uncle into a cripple, which is just to scare." β
Li Jiani was pretty and crimson, pouting and said: "Yo, it's really unbelievable to be cheap and good, I didn't stop it if I knew it, and I cried a lot!" β
Zhou Jing's heart softened, and he lowered his voice and said, "I'm not hurt, why are you crying!" β
Li Jiani snorted and said stupidly: "Okay, this time is a lesson, you must remember it next time, don't mess around again." β
When Zhou Jing heard the word 'next time', he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and whispered: "Jiani, next time you come to my house, my parents are reasonable, and they will definitely not beat the mandarin ducks." β
Li Jiani's face was flushed, she giggled, and said timidly: "Don't go, are you still addicted?" β
Zhou Jing nodded and chuckled: "It's addictive, don't you like it?" β
Li Jiani was ashamed and said coquettishly: "Of course I don't like it, it's all swollen, and it still hurts to walk now!" β
Zhou Jing touched his chin and said with a smile: "It's like this for the first time, and it will be fine in the future." β
Li Jiani raised her pretty face and said angrily: "Come less, don't think about the future, let's break off relations!" β
"Broken off relations?" Zhou Jing grinned and asked with a smile, "Are you willing?" β
Li Jiani smiled and said wonderfully: "What is there to be reluctant to, and it is not a great treasure!" β
Zhou Jing laughed hesitantly, and said ambiguously: "Then you are still screaming so loudly, the roof is almost opened!" β
Li Jiani's face was feverish, her ears were red, and she stomped her feet and said, "Stinky boy, don't say that kind of obscene talk!" β
"That's it!" Zhou Jing remembered that the two of them were tossed in bed. The phoenix is poured down, and the appearance of flying with wings is like eating ginseng fruit, and my heart is beautiful.
Li Jiani was a little angry, and said angrily: "I won't tell you, if I knew that this was the result, I shouldn't have led the wolf into the room." β
Zhou Jing waved his hand again and again, and said proudly: "Jiani, that's not to lure a wolf into the room, we are childhood sweethearts, and we are happy with each other." β
Li Jiani smiled and pouted: "Go die, who is happy with you, it's not that you rely on your strength to bully people!" β
Zhou Jing smiled and whispered: "Sister Jiani, if I can, I'd rather bully for the rest of my life." β
Li Jiani's heart fluttered, but she bit her lip and said gently: "Xiaojing, don't talk nonsense, it's impossible between the two of us." β
Zhou Jing frowned and said in surprise: "Why? β
Li Jiani touched the microphone, her face was full of melancholy, and she muttered for a long time before she whispered: "You are still young, you will meet a girl you really like in the future, we must both pay attention in the future, and we can't do this ridiculous thing anymore." β
Zhou Jing was a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Sister Jiani, I am sincere, no matter who it is, I can't take your place." β
Li Jiani sighed and said faintly: "Xiaojing, sister, this is for your good." β
Zhou Jing shook his head lightly and said categorically: "If you really want to be my good, be my woman and give me the rest of your life!" β
Li Jiani covered her small mouth with her hand, giggled, but the corners of her eyes suddenly moistened, and her tears fell down like pearls with broken threads, and after a while, she whispered: "Don't talk crazy, let's do this first, I'll go back to the house and rest." β
Zhou Jing put down the microphone, walked to the window, and said with a smile: "Sister Jiani, don't worry, I won't let you down!" β
