Half an hour later, Pei Yuchen walked out of the hospital.
The sky was getting dark, and the wind was howling.
It's going to rain heavily.
"Xiao Bao, come out and help Mommy collect the laundry."
Song Yanzhi had just seen off a few students when he noticed that the sky outside had darkened and soon it started to drizzle.
She immediately ran to the yard to collect the clothes.
The weather has been nice and sunny lately, so Song Yanzhi always takes out her quilt and hangs it on the wire by the door to air it out in the morning before she goes out.
This way, it's dry and comfortable to sleep in at night.
Upon hearing the noise, Xiao Bao quickly slipped on his slippers and ran out to help carry the blanket.
He was so small that he struggled to carry the quilt, walking unsteadily and barely able to see the road.
Song Yanzhi had a lot in his hands, so he quickly told him to be careful not to drop it.
The mother and son worked together to get into the house before the torrential rain arrived.
Heavy rain always comes unexpectedly, and Song Yanzhi was a little worried. Children's Day was just two days away, and she hoped it wouldn't rain.
Rain not only spoils the atmosphere, but also affects the performance.
Although she had been very busy and tired during this period, it was her first time participating in such a large-scale event, and it was also Xiaobao's first Children's Day. Song Yanzhi still hoped that he could have a wonderful holiday.
She said to Xiaobao, "Xiaobao, don't come out. I'll go see if there's anything else that hasn't been taken."
Xiao Bao obediently responded and didn't follow.
Song Yanzhi walked to the door and glanced around. The clothes had all been taken in, but the few vegetable seedlings she had planted in the yard probably wouldn't survive such a downpour.
She grabbed an umbrella and walked over, intending to push the styrofoam box to the corner, otherwise the mud inside would be everywhere tomorrow, and it would be difficult to clean.
She tried to push it with her hand, but it was difficult to exert force with just one hand, and she couldn't move it for a while.
Just as I was thinking of giving up, a pair of strong hands, dripping with water, pressed down on both sides of the styrofoam box, and then a familiar voice came: "Let me move it."
Song Yanzhi looked up and met the man's bent profile.
He was soaking wet, his military green shirt clung to his body, and his hair was cut even shorter. The rain kept pelting him, but his expression remained unchanged.
Before Song Yanzhi could react, Pei Yuchen had already moved the styrofoam box to the corner of the wall.
He turned around and looked at Song Yanzhi with a complicated expression.
Song Yanzhi's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
After a long pause, he finally spoke: "You...you're back."
Pei Yuchen nodded slightly, without saying anything more, "Let's go inside."
Song Yanzhi didn't know what to say for a moment, even though Pei Yuchen said he would come back before Children's Day.
I didn't expect it to happen so many days early.
She responded and followed him inside.
"Xiao Bao, your father is back."
Xiao Bao, who was sitting at the table with his back to them listening to nursery rhymes on the radio, suddenly turned around and stared at the tall, mountain-like figure in front of the door. He was stunned for a long time.
I didn't expect Dad to come back so quickly this time.
Although it wasn't as fast as he said, Xiao Bao knew that many adults who went out to work would say they would be back soon.
But one trip can last a year or two.
He understands everything, but he just doesn't say it.
But to my surprise, it happened so quickly this time.
Xiao Bao felt a sense of unbelievable fantasy for a moment.
Upon seeing his son, Pei Yuchen's usually stern expression softened. "Xiao Bao."
Xiao Bao paused for a moment, then suddenly turned around and ran into the inner room with his head down.
Song Yanzhi followed him in, closed the umbrella, and seeing his appearance, looked at Pei Yuchen: "You said you would be back in a week, but you've been gone for more than half a month. He's angry."
Pei Yuchen was silent for a moment, then looked at Xiao Bao's room and nodded: "I will apologize to him."
Song Yanzhi didn't notice his strange behavior. Seeing that he was all wet, she said, "Go change your clothes first."
Pei Yuchen was wearing a military green shirt and suit pants, which made him look very tall and straight with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. As a captain, he also had to pay attention to his image, so his beard and hair were very neatly groomed.
Even though they were soaked, they didn't look disheveled at all.
On the contrary, it's more pleasing to the eye.
Song Yanzhi's gaze swept quickly across the area, and he suddenly understood why Zhou Qiao couldn't live without him.
She walked to the table to continue preparing her lesson, her thoughts wandering. A moment later, a dark figure loomed behind her. "Let's talk."
Song Yanzhi thought that when he returned, his first priority would be to comfort Xiaobao, but she didn't expect him to come looking for her.
She stopped what she was doing and looked at Pei Yuchen.
The man was too tall, and she had difficulty looking up, so she simply stood up and asked, "What?"
“I went to the new house.” Pei Yuchen’s dark eyes were fixed on her face, his gaze deep and silent.
Song Yanzhi's hand holding the pen froze.
“I thought you had already moved in.” Pei Yuchen continued to speak after seeing her reaction, but was interrupted by Song Yanzhi.
"Wait."
Song Yanzhi had probably already guessed it; she had just sensed that Pei Yuchen's aura was different from usual.
Although he wasn't aggressive, he gave her a strange feeling.
She thought she was overthinking it.
I see.
Song Yanzhi thought she would panic, but when the facts were laid out before her, she suddenly felt relieved.
It seems they think this is good, quite good.
But I just don't want Xiaobao to know.
These matters are more than enough for her and Pei Yuchen to handle themselves.
She looked up at Pei Yuchen and said in a deep voice, "Let's talk in your room."
