Volume 6: The City of the Heart (8)

The time of gelatinization seems to be fixed forever.

The scorching heat of each day is always familiar, like a machine, regularly repeating the rotation....

In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.

Chen Zhao longs for autumn.

If you talk about the happy number, he loves spring the most, followed by autumn. There is no third, because summer and winter are the least pleasing to him. Maybe that's what most people think.

Seven days to come.

Chen Zhao was not as relieved as he imagined. He didn't take the initiative to call Zhang Jun, and he was even afraid of receiving a call from Zhang Jun, but what he was afraid of always happened.

In Zhang Jun's phone call, he learned that Zhang Jun and Yu Yazhi were doing quite well, and Yu Yazhi, who longed for an ordinary marriage and a family, may not have paid attention to love, and as she said, maybe women also have a shelf life, so they didn't delay.

Zhang Jun's words are indeed very suitable for her. If Jang Jun loves her...

After all, Zhang Jun is a good person.

It's just that he didn't do a good job in the matter of Yang Xiaoru, right?

Chen Zhao confirmed only one point.

Even if he ends up with Yu Yazhi, what Zhang Jun gets is just the result of one person's efforts. He couldn't get the ethereal beauty of 'love is relative' that he said. Because Yu Yazhi has no love for him.

I guess I will suffer retribution, and the worst thing will never be rewarded. So one day, will Yu Yazhi abandon Zhang Jun as ruthlessly as Zhang Jun did to Yang Xiaoru? Even if it is, Zhang Jun can't regret it, because he chose it himself.

However, Chen Zhao didn't know why he suddenly stopped disgusting Zhang Jun and Yu Yazhi together. Is it because of the guilt in my heart? Are you afraid that Zhang Jun will reunite with Yang Xiaoru one day?

He felt that the chance of reuniting was 0, but he was still so uneasy.

At 4:20, Chen Zhao went to his daughter's school. This is their last day of course, and the summer vacation starts tomorrow. And taking his daughter to the amusement park is the only expectation in Chen Zhao's ordinary life.

But when I was on the bus, my phone rang.

What made Chen Zhao's face change suddenly was Yang Xiaoru's phone call. But he didn't answer, he turned off the voice, trying to pretend that he didn't see the phone and didn't answer the excuse.

In his current life, Chen Zhao is very satisfied with everything, and he is afraid of being ruined by this beauty.

Chen Zhao may be afraid of Zhang Jun's arrival call, but for Yazhi's, it is full of fear.

These days, he is tormented.

Really, every time he saw Xia Qing come back, he was always like a thief hiding in the crowd seeing the police, for fear of being found out. He was afraid that Yang Xiaoru would suddenly call Xia Qing and suddenly reveal the secret...

But whenever he got Xia Qing's unknowing eyes, he regained his past composure, and his guilt was gone.

Chen Zhao didn't want to think deeply about the reason, he just looked forward to it, time wore everything out.

He also deeply understood how serious the mistake he had made, and he thought that if he could do it all over again, he felt that nothing would happen again...

Finally, after nearly a minute-long missed call, it automatically hung up. Seeing that Yang Xiaoru didn't call again within a few minutes, Chen Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

But just when the bus stopped at the school gate, he found that he was thinking too much, Yang Xiaoru did not give up, the mobile phone clicked, and the text message rang.

"If you don't answer the phone, I'll tell Zhang Jun and Xia Qing about it."

Yang Xiaoru's threatening text messages.

Chen Zhao's face turned pale for a moment, he swept around, deleted the text message with a calm face, and made a call.

"What do you want to do?"

"Why don't you answer the phone?" Yang Xiaoru asked very calmly, as if the threatening text message just now was fake.

Seeing that there was no reply, she added, "Afraid of me? ”

Chen Zhao forcibly calmed himself down: "You seem to have eased up?" You don't need to ask me for comfort. ”

"Sure enough, your initial sympathy for me has disappeared, and you even want to get rid of the relationship completely? ... Chen Zhao, are men all indifferent creatures like you? ”

Chen Zhao knew that Yang Xiaoru forcibly transferred some of Zhang Jun's emotions to him.

"I didn't think like that," he could only say coldly, "I just know that I did something wrong and regret it, so I don't want to make more contact." If you can ask me for any help, I will try to help if I can, but I don't need to intimidate me with that kind of words? ”

"Intimidation? You can't take it as a joke? ”

"There's a joke like that?"

"I'm afraid you won't answer the phone." Yang Xiaoru chuckled and said, "I really think it's okay to be inappropriate, and it can be treated as if it didn't happen, or the relationship like before, and I won't send this kind of boring text messages in the future, so it's always okay, right?" ”

But when she said this, although she was still smiling, she suddenly aggravated her tone and said slowly, "But can you buy me a pack of diapers at night?" This kind of trivial matter, you should help..."

Chen Zhao's mood was a little depressed.

This kind of trivial thing, she won't buy it herself?

He knew that this matter was not so easy to pass, and the feeling of not being able to refuse made him silent for a while, and finally said coldly, "I know." ”

Taking a deep breath, he forced himself to stop thinking about it and smiled and went to pick up his daughter.

"Dad... Xiaole is on vacation! ”

As soon as he saw someone, his daughter happily ran over to ask him to hug him, so that Chen Zhao forgot all the unpleasantness just now for a while.

"That's good." Chen Zhao kissed her.

"Dad... Let's pick up mom from work later. The daughter suddenly raised her head and looked at Chen Zhao obediently.

This made him a little stunned. Because of the long wait at home, it was not surprising that her daughter knew that Xia Qing was off work. It may seem a little boring to pick up Xia Qing from work, but Chen Zhao didn't want to refuse his daughter's request.

But thinking of Yang Xiaoru's request and calculating the time to go to Yang Xiaoru's house, he was in a somewhat complicated mood, and finally touched his daughter's head, "Next time, Dad is a little busy today." ”

“... Well. ”

Xiao Le nodded, and the immature face wanted to forcibly pretend that it was not disappointing, which made Chen Zhao a little worried.

"In a few days, Dad will take you to the amusement park. I'll take you to the zoo, okay? Chen Zhao smiled and wanted to grind off his daughter's discomfort.

"Good!"

In this way, Chen Zhao took his daughter to a nearby large supermarket to buy some things. Some snacks for my daughter, a short-sleeved dress or two for summer wear, and... A pack of Anerle brand diapers.

"Dad, why are you buying this?" When Chen Zhao was choosing, the sensible Xiaole asked curiously.

"Ah, you're too young to know." Chen Zhao didn't want to explain.

After sending her daughter home, turning on the TV and playing her favorite discs, Chen Zhao went to Yang Xiaoru's house.

Also at 5:30, Xia Qing returned home.

As soon as she entered the door, she glanced around, and saw that only her daughter had a glance, and she asked curiously, "Xiaole, where is Dad?" ”

"Mom!" Xiao Le, who was fascinated by watching TV, reacted, and happily trotted to Xia Qing's side, and whispered, "Dad, he has something to do, let me tell my mother and come back later." ”

"In this way, Xiaole is really sensible, and he can help his father pass the word." Xia Qing didn't care, and hugged her daughter with a smile.

But in a second, the words of the daughter below made the smiling Xia Qing stunned, "Is my mother going to give birth to a younger brother?" ”

"Brother?" Her face immediately turned a little red, thinking if it was because her daughter hadn't fallen asleep in the middle of the night....

No, my daughter is so young, how can she understand that?

She quickly reacted and said softly, "No, it's enough for mom to have Xiaole." ”

"Then why did Dad buy diapers?"

"Buying diapers?" Xia Qing rummaged through the bag suspiciously, and couldn't help frowning when she saw that there were only clothes and snacks left for her daughter.

.....

Chen Zhao didn't have the heart to look at the sky that had imprinted the earth into a wonderful twilight beauty.

When he rang the door bell, it was already 5 o'clock.

"It's coming so slowly, huh?" Yang Xiaoru opened the door, still with a smile, "Come in." ”

The huge house was still empty.

Yes, it was Yang Xiaoru and the child she held in her arms.

"You're usually in a daze at home?" Seeing that the TV was not turned on, Chen Zhao felt a little strange.

"Read a book." Yang Xiaoru smiled and pointed to the books on the sofa that couldn't read the covers clearly.

Seeing Chen Zhao put the diaper on the table, she put the sleeping child back in the crib, lifted the water from the barbecue that seemed to have been prepared a long time ago, and poured a cup, "Sit down, drink a glass of water." ”

"No need, I'm not so thirsty, I have to go home for dinner, Xia Qing may be back." Chen Zhao refused, turned around and left.

"You can make a phone call, I've cooked too. Less than two hours before work? It's been a long time. ”

“....”

Chen Zhao had some bad feelings, seeing Yang Xiaoru wearing the same thin pajamas as that day, some subtle restlessness seemed to be about to surface, his face became ugly, and he immediately refused, "No... No, I'm going back. ”

"So afraid of me?"

"It's not that I'm afraid of you." Chen Zhao denied.

"Are you sure you want to go?" Yang Xiaoru's voice with a sneer made Chen Zhao pause, and he sank his face, "What do you mean?" Yang Xiaoru, you said it, as if it never happened, didn't you? I've already bought diapers for you, what else do you want? I'm not my home, so can I stay here to eat? ”

Chen Zhao's anger had already risen.

He felt that Yang Xiaoru wanted to threaten him with this.

"Answer me a few questions." Yang Xiaoru didn't take Chen Zhao's anger seriously, and even said that she was extremely calm. Because he has quarreled with Zhang Jun on weekdays, this tone can be easily endured.

Her bright eyes stared at Chen Zhao and continued, "The woman who was with Zhang Jun, I heard that you know?" People are not bad? ”

"What did Zhang Jun tell you?" Chen Zhao stared at her for a while, and when he saw that she didn't reply, he said, "I know, my name is Yu Yazhi, she is really good, and she has helped me a lot before." It's pretty too. ”

"Really... Did you just give up on me? Yang Xiaoru laughed at herself, and then said, "Then you go home." ”

This seemed to be an amnesty that made Chen Zhao breathe a sigh of relief, but as soon as he turned to leave, Yang Xiaoru suddenly added, "Come back tomorrow and help me bring some fruit." ”

"Yang Xiaoru!! What do you mean? Chen Zhao didn't suppress his temper anymore, and shouted, "Don't go too far, I have to pick up my daughter after work every day, and I have to continue to work after eating at home, I come to you for an hour back and forth, what am I doing here?" What should I do if someone sees me? ”

"Zhang Junche is in the garage, if you want, you can drive away casually, there is no one in my building, no one will talk about it." The key is here. Yang Xiaoru pointed to the bunch of keys next to the TV stand.

Chen Zhao felt that Yang Xiaoru was crazy.

Let him drive a handsome car?

He was stupid to move!

How does Xia Qing explain? How does Zhang Jun explain? She knew she couldn't say yes!

"What the hell do you want?" Chen Zhao couldn't believe that what she said really didn't care, he really felt a burst of powerlessness and irritability.

Yang Xiaoru's eyes were as calm as water, and she didn't even feel displeased by Chen Zhao's mean words.

She glanced at the child in the cradle, and then at Chen Zhao, "I'm lonely and pitiful." I just want someone to come and see me, to keep me company. Zhang Jun, he's not coming back, isn't the only one I can rely on is his good brother? ”

“...”

Chen Zhao's face became gloomy.

"If you want to accompany, you can also find a new one like Zhang Jun? You're also beautiful, you have a house and a car now, just take a child, don't have that much trouble, right? ”

"Didn't I look for you?" She asked rhetorically.
