Chapter 127 Extraordinary Temperament

After Chu Zhen was discharged from the hospital, she rested at home for more than a month. I also happened to be on maternity leave, so we naturally became full-time parents at home.

The two kids are really a handful. When Chu Lin was with us, he was already three or four years old and quite sensible. Chu Huan and Chu An, on the other hand, never stop for a moment. As soon as one of them finishes their tantrum, the other takes the stage. Even though their mother, Professor Huang, and grandmother are all together, it's still like a battle.

"Don't hug me~" Chu An is very clingy to me. Whenever she cries, she calms down quickly as soon as she is in my arms. This day, I had just taken Chu An from my mother's arms when Chu Zhen took her away.

“I told you, you need to rest. This kid is obviously clinging to you and wants you to hold him, but I won’t. If he’s like this since he was little, what will he be like when he grows up? He has to be independent.” Chu Zhen picked up An’an and put him directly into the crib. He even gave him a lecture by the bedside. Strangely enough, An’an really stopped crying and making a fuss.

"Come here, bring your daughter over so I can see her. My girl is so pretty, just like you. Come here, Huanhuan, give Daddy a smile."

Sigh, I used my phone to record the scenes of Chu Zhen treating An An and Huan Huan before and after, and sent them to our best friends group.

"Chu is so funny, he's even jealous of An'an. It's okay, godmother will come over tomorrow and give her a hug."

“My Huanhuan will definitely be a great beauty in the future, so I have to spoil her now. The saying goes, ‘Raise sons with hardship and daughters with luxury.’ My Huanhuan will definitely be showered with love and affection.”

......

Huang Yanyan and Song Ji-hyo actually started arguing because of a short video I posted. Oh well, I finally got some peace and quiet and leaned back on the sofa to recharge. Even though there are many people taking care of things at home these days, the baby's crying often echoes in the house, so I can't rest even if I want to. Days like this, where both of them can have some peace and quiet, are really rare.

"An'an, An'an..."

"Dang'er, Dang'er, did you have a nightmare?"

"Chu Zhen, where's An'an? Where's Huanhuan?"

Yes, I had a nightmare. It was a nightmare about a car accident, and a nightmare about a bed covered in blood. The dream was so realistic, but the person in the dream was An'an.

"She's asleep at her mother's. What is she dreaming about? She's covered in sweat."

I dreamt about Amy!

From the moment I became pregnant, I was always on guard against Amy. Fortunately, the baby was born safely. But I never expected to have such a dream today. In the dream, Amy was driving a car and crashed into An'an. An'an fell to the ground covered in blood.

Chu Zhen didn't ask me about the content of my dream, but I could probably guess it. He carried me to the bathroom, turned on the hot water, and washed me.

"Lin Dang, you and the child have me. I will protect you both." Chu Zhen said to me with a firm look in his eyes as he put me back on the bed.

There was a time when Chu Zhen said something similar to me, but there were always times when he wasn't around. While I nodded in agreement with Chu Zhen, I also made up my mind to protect my child. Women are inherently weak, but mothers are strong.

Chu Zhen never asked about my dream. Although we are not idealists, dreams still have some influence on us, so we remained vigilant.

After staying at home for three whole months, although I miss spending time with An'an and Huan'huan, I can't neglect my work. In the warm spring of March, we stepped into the TV station again.

"Wow, you two should just be the hosts! This handsome man and beautiful woman, a husband-and-wife hosting duo would definitely be a hit." I ran into Cao Gang as soon as I entered.

Today, Chu Zhen wore a light gray suit with a black wool coat over it, while I wore a black wool long skirt. It was a rare occasion for Chu Zhen and me to wear matching outfits. Before we left, my mother looked at us with a very satisfied expression.

"Lin Dang, what style are you in now? A young married woman?" Song Ji-hyo suddenly appeared out of nowhere and looked me up and down.

"Director Cao, do you think there's a generation gap between us when I stand in front of Lin Dang right now?" Song Zhixiao squeezed between me and Chu Zhen, forcefully separating our linked arms.

"No, no, no, two completely different kinds of beauty. You are charming and beautiful, while Lin Dang is elegant and dignified with extraordinary temperament."

"She really knows how to talk, she's a leader!" Song Ji-hyo seemed quite satisfied with this answer.

"Welcome, boss and sister-in-law!"

When I arrived at the "Before Dawn" program team, everyone lined up and shouted in unison. I was a little surprised by this scene. I originally thought that no one would know that I was coming to work today, and I even came half an hour early. I didn't expect that everyone was already here.

"Chu Zhen, welcome back~" The station director even came.

Thank you~

"You two are both amazing. One of you risked your lives in the disaster area, and the other was completely disregarded in the fire. As journalists, you have set an example for everyone. But from my personal point of view, you should still pay attention to safety. Fortunately, everything is over now."

"Director, shouldn't we give our two heroes a welcome party?" Song Ji-hyo teased.

"Alright, I'll pay for it myself tonight, and treat our two heroes to a 'homecoming feast'!"

"The station director is awesome!"

The "Return Banquet" was actually just a pretext. The station director attended, said a few words, and then left. Chu Zhen and I now had a good excuse to leave, which was to go back and take care of the children. The main reason was that most of the attendees were young people with too much energy. The station director and Chu Zhen felt a bit pressured by being there. Our departure allowed them to have more fun.

Everyone in the department was having a party today, and my first night shift with Chu Zhen officially began. Before we knew it, we ended up at a skewers restaurant again.

"Are you hungry?" The smell of skewers made me a little hungry, so I hinted to Chu Zhen.

"I'm hungry, but forget about this. I'll take you somewhere else." Sure enough, I was rejected. My stomach is very bad. I can't eat cold or spicy food anymore. If I eat it, it's like I'm being stimulated, and I get acid reflux and vomit. The doctor said it's probably because I caught a cold during those days in the disaster area, and I didn't get enough rest or good food, which caused this illness.

Following Chu Zhen, they ended up at the KFC where they had first visited each other at night.

"Large fries, large popcorn chicken, extra packets of ketchup, and two cups of hot milk." Chu Zhen ordered the same thing I ordered the first time. Although I ate at KFC with Chu Lin a few times afterward, I always ate what Chu Lin liked. I didn't expect him to still remember the first meal I ordered.

"Do you remember the girl who cried here that day? Do you think she and her boyfriend made up later?" I remember my first interviewee was that girl who was crying and cursing "scumbag" at the time, and I was still a lifelong single.
